In the most luxurious camp of the Death Army, Yang Wu was learning to make alchemy day and night. He had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
After he cultivated and became the inner fire, his strength suddenly increased greatly. He could slow down the pace of his cultivation and learn to make alchemy first.
Before learning how to make alchemy, he must first learn to control the inner fire blue enchantress.
According to the basics of alchemy, controlling fire is a very difficult thing to do, but in Yang Wu's hands it is not that difficult. He felt that the summoned Blue Demon Girl was like a part of his body, and it was connected with the Hidden Blade. Just like the wings, he can make it big or small with a single thought, completely within the controllable range.
Because of this, he could quickly skip the training process of fire control and try to refine the herbal medicine.
This link is more difficult to get started with. Even if Yang Wu can control his inner fire as he pleases, the herbs will shrink when exposed to heat, and if there is the slightest mistake, they may all be burned.
Xiaohei did not guide Yang Wu. It had passed some basic chapters to him, and he had to explore everything by himself, so that he could gradually become proficient.
Xiao Hei took out another ancient cauldron for Yang Wu to practice. This ancient cauldron was equally extraordinary. It was a bronze cauldron with three legs and four ears. There were many mysterious patterns on it. Every time the flame burned, wisps of these patterns would appear. Inexplicable halo.
Although it is not as high-end as Shen Nong's Immortal Cauldron, to the outside world, it is a rare immortal cauldron, and even the Holy Medicine Master comes here to snatch it.
Yang Wu ignored the value of the bronze cauldron. He was meticulously refining the essence of the herbal medicine. He used the spiritual power of Shenting to control the herbs to fly into the bronze cauldron. The inner fire was burning outside the cauldron to roast the essence of the herbal medicine.
One after another, the herbs were burned and destroyed by him, and lumps of waste fell into the medicine cauldron, which made him heartbroken.
Even if these are just the most common herbs, it still takes time to collect them.
"I can even forcefully awaken the fire in my heart. I don't believe that I can't refine a small herbal medicine." Yang Wu has never been a person who gives up easily. He meditated on the basics of alchemy in the divine court and how Xiao Hei usually made alchemy. Start refining medicine once.
The one hundred and first failure!
The one hundred and second failure!
The one hundred and third failure!
…
After failing nearly two hundred times, he finally succeeded in extracting the essence of the herbal medicine.
Once you have a successful experience, it will be much easier the second time.
The next step is basically to refine three herbs to get one. Soon after, refine two herbs to get one. After two days, we can finally reach a success rate of 70 to 80%. .
This kind of efficiency in refining herbal medicine can be considered extremely amazing.
Ordinary alchemy masters are nothing more than that.
All this is due to the magic of Xinhuo, which can move according to his thoughts and control the temperature of the fire very skillfully.
After completing the steps of refining the essence of the medicine, the next step is to form a ball of many essences, and finally to cool and solidify into a pill.
These two steps are also very critical. If you make any mistakes, you will not be able to make a real elixir.
In the next two days, Yang Wu wasted a lot of medicinal essence and failed more than ten times in a row, which tortured him to the point of mental breakdown.
"If you can't do it, kid, just stop. Don't waste the medicinal materials." Xiao Hei persuaded from the side.
It was okay if it didn't persuade him, but the more he persuaded him, the more unconvinced Yang Wu became, and he gritted his teeth and continued to refine the elixir.
Finally, after thirty-five attempts, he succeeded in condensing a pot of elixirs.
At this time, the flames were burning the cauldron, and when the firepower reached its peak, Yang Wu lightly scolded: "Withdraw the fire!"
The inner fire shrank back into his heart in an instant. He formed seals continuously, and a stream of water profound energy overturned and enveloped the furnace, completely cooling down the medicine furnace.
Zizz!
There was a burst of white smoke on the bronze cauldron. The walls of the cauldron cooled down rapidly, and the heat inside the cauldron was naturally shrinking. The elixir was also affected by this temperature change and became more and more solid. Whether it will finally become an elixir will depend on the lid being removed. Just known.
After doing all this, Yang Wu fell directly to the ground, breathing heavily. He was obviously exhausted and exhausted.
If it weren't for the huge strength he had after reaching the advanced general realm, he would have collapsed from exhaustion.
Alchemy is not only a technical job, but also a physical job!
Yang Wu stuffed a Qi-increasing pill into his mouth and quickly regained his strength. He needed to stand up to see if his pill was finished.
Xiao Hei said that taking elixirs is not conducive to solid foundation, but Qi-increasing elixirs have no effect on improving Yang Wu's realm. At most, they can only restore strength, and Peach Core Dantian can also purify the strength, as long as they do not remove them. It won't have much impact if you eat it as a meal.
After Yang Wu regained some strength, he stood up and nervously opened the lid of the furnace.
At this time, Xiao Hei also climbed onto Yang Wu's shoulder, wanting to witness with him whether the Cauldron Pill was really condensed.
When the cauldron was opened, it was indeed found that there were two solidified elixirs inside the cauldron, but they were not as round and shiny as the ones made by Xiao Hei. They were almost the same as the elixirs sold outside.
"Haha, I succeeded, I succeeded!" Yang Wu still laughed with great joy.
From the beginning of controlling fire, refining medicine, to now making pills, it took him five days and five nights to successfully refine two pills. This joy is really not something that ordinary people can experience.
Yang Wu never thought that he would one day become an alchemist. It really felt like a dream.
"It's a pill of such low quality that it needs to be refined carefully." Xiao Hei poured cold water on Yang Wu.
Yang Wu didn't care at all. He was used to Xiao Hei's support. He responded: "Look, it won't take long before I can refine the same elixir as you."
"I hope one day." Xiao Hei responded.
Yang Wu packed up the two elixirs. He planned to keep them as souvenirs for himself, and then continued to refine the elixirs. He must master this feeling of elixir making as soon as possible to increase the success rate.
…
Yang Wu didn't know about the grand event outside, let alone that Lu Zhi had become a popular figure.
Marshal, the Major General Challenge is already halfway through. Most of the people have been kicked off, and even a few quasi-major generals have been kicked off. This shows how fierce the battle is on the challenge stage.
Nan Runan, a woman who met Yang Wu, was also among the quasi-major generals. She used her strong strength to crush her opponents all the way, and she still has not lost a single defeat.
In addition, Wan Lanxin also performed exceptionally well. She eliminated all the opponents she met.
It is worth mentioning that Wan Lanxin received the acupuncture pill sent to her by Li Dazui, which enabled her to directly enter the realm of top generals and become qualified to compete for the rank of major general.
At first Wan Lanxin didn't dare to accept the elixir given to her by Li Dazui, but after seeing the note handed by Li Dazui, she accepted it with peace of mind, because it was a gift from Yang Wu. There are ten pills, six healing pills, two Qi-enhancing pills and two acupoint-breaking pills.
This is not just for her personally, she still wants to give each pill to Xiaoman for his use.
Wan Lanxin knew the value of these pills very well. She couldn't figure out where Yang Wu got the energy to get so many pills at one time.
She also found that she had not seen Yang Wu for so many days. Many times when she wanted to find Yang Wu after the challenge, she was mercilessly asked back by Zhou Yong who was guarding outside Yang Wu's gate.
Zhou Yong has become Yang Wu's personal guard. He has even received the hole-breaking pill rewarded by Yang Wu, and has become one of the top generals. He is loyal to Yang Wu to the end.
The reason why Yang Wu chose Zhou Yong as his personal guard instead of other commanders was naturally because of the relationship between Zhou Yong and Lu Zhi. Without Zhou Yong, Lu Zhi would not have been discovered. This is a cause and effect.
Now, after Lu Zhi went to sell pills in person in the first three days, he didn't dare to go by himself in the next few days.
As soon as he appeared, it would immediately lead to a crazy siege. Not only did everyone want to trade the pills in his hands, but they also kept taking advantage of him. He really couldn't stand it anymore.
He had to arrange for others to sell the elixir. Anyway, the effect of the elixir was already aroused, so he was not afraid that no one would buy it.
The popularity of elixirs will naturally arouse the greed of some people, but Death Rose and the cold-faced adjutant both personally came forward and claimed that whoever dared to steal the elixirs from the Death Legion would fight to the death, which frightened some speculators.
These are two great kings. If they risk their lives, the entire legion will be shaken.
The superiors were very upset over this matter.
They were sure that there was an alchemist behind Rose of Death, otherwise there would be so many elixirs to provide, and they wouldn't have such ability.
To this end, they met many times to discuss, and finally decided to invite Death Rose to talk again.
At first, Death Rose ignored it at all. It was not until Sima Natu came to invite her in person that she came to the marshal's camp again.
Fen Tianxiong went straight to the point: "Rose, you must have a plan for creating such a formation. Please set your terms."
This time, except for Fen Tianxiong, there were only eight lieutenant generals, and the other deputy generals were not among them.
Death Rose had waited so long for today, so she immediately made her condition: "I don't ask the general to treat the Death Legion members equally, but they must be given some military resources. The war will start next spring, and they Many people don't even have the weapons at their disposal. If you let them die, you should also make their death worthwhile, right? Also, the cold winter is approaching. Do you need to prepare some winter supplies for them, or else? If you don't go to the battlefield, everyone will die, who else will lead the battle for you... "
Death Rose raised a series of questions, but she was only responsible for speaking, and did not ask for specific conditions. Everything still depends on Fen Tianxiong's decision.
Fen Tianxiong felt that Death Rose's conditions were not excessive. Even if others had objections, he suppressed them. He made a request to Death Rose: "I want to meet the alchemist."
