In the inner hall of Lingdan Pavilion, Xu Fu had already begun to prepare the materials for alchemy.
They were spiritual grasses, and Xu Fu took out more than thirty kinds of them, many of which he had never seen before.
Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh. Just looking at these thirty kinds of spiritual herbs, he could imagine how cumbersome the process of refining alchemy was. Compared with refining alchemy, refining jade spirit liquid was really nothing.
"The most important thing in alchemy is soul power, and the second is controlling the flame." Xu Fu sorted out the spiritual herbs for a hundred years while spreading the common sense of alchemy to Ye Chen.
"You have unique conditions for alchemy because your soul power is one level higher than your cultivation level."
"And your True Fire is innately endowed with spiritual wisdom and is connected with your mind. It can control the flame extremely finely. This is very important for alchemy."
Having said this, Xu Fu glanced at Ye Chen meaningfully, "So, you are very suitable to be an alchemist."
"Alchemist? Me?" Ye Chen was stunned.
"You are blessed with unique conditions. If you don't become an alchemist, you would really be sorry for God's favor on you." Xu Fu said, taking out more than a dozen spiritual grasses again, "With your qualifications, it may be possible to surpass that old man Dan Chen." Guy."
"Dan Chen?" Ye Chen was surprised.
How could he, who specializes in intelligence work, not know the name of Dan Chen? He was the most famous alchemist in Da Chu. He did not belong to any force, but he was also a person that no force dared to provoke.
He never thought that Xu Fu would say that he might surpass Dan Chen, which was something he couldn't even imagine.
"How about little guy, are you interested in becoming an alchemist?" Xu Fu looked at Ye Chen with interest.
"Yes, of course I do." Ye Chen blurted out without thinking.
The profession of an alchemist is too noble. There are very few in this vast country, and they are regarded as ancestors by all parties. If you become an alchemist, your future will be bright.
After getting the answer he wanted, Xu Fu came to the alchemy furnace.
"I'll teach you how to refine the first kind of elixir. Watch carefully. I'll only demonstrate it once." Xu Fu said, already activating the earth fire under the elixir furnace.
boom!
Suddenly, purple flames burned brightly in the alchemy furnace, and even the patterns of the four divine beasts on the alchemy furnace also lit up.
Then, Xu Fu waved his robe and put three or five spiritual grasses into the alchemy furnace in no particular order, and then skillfully controlled the earth fire to refine the essence inside. During this period, more than one spiritual grass was put in.
On the side, Ye Chen stood there quietly, Xu Fu's every move was imprinted in his heart.
This is a long process.
At some point, a strong aroma of medicinal fragrance floated in the inner hall of Lingdan Pavilion.
"Get the elixir." As Xu Fu spat out the words, he patted the alchemy furnace, and a purple elixir flew out, and he waved his arm and caught it in his hand.
Seeing this, Ye Chen hurriedly stepped forward and looked at the elixir in Xu Fu's hand with bright eyes.
"Let's take a look!" Xu Fu handed the elixir in his hand to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen stretched out his hand to take it. The elixir had just been refined, and it still felt warm. It was crystal clear, and there was still a purple aura lingering on it. What came to him was a strong medicinal fragrance. After taking a sip, he felt Feeling relaxed and happy.
In addition to these, there is a pattern on this elixir that seems to be hidden.
"This is the Xuanhui Dan. When the true energy and spiritual power are lacking, it can quickly replenish the consumption in the body." Xu Fu has found a comfortable place to sit down. "This kind of elixir is the lowest elixir. You You should see the line above, that is the symbol of the elixir level."
"Elixirs are also divided into levels?" Ye Chen looked at Xu Fu.
"Of course." Xu Fu said, "There is a line on the elixir in your hand, which represents the first-line elixir. If there are two lines on it, it means the second-line elixir. And so on. The more lines, the more elixir. The higher the level.”
"Elder, what is the number of the highest elixir you have refined?" Ye Chen asked curiously.
"The highest elixir I refined alone is the four-marked elixir." Xu Fu did not hide anything, stroking his beard and said, "I worked with that old guy Dan Chen once and refined a five-marked elixir."
"How many lines of magic elixir were there that day?" Maybe Ye Chen wanted to know too much, so he asked directly without thinking too much.
Hearing this, Xu Fu frowned and looked at Ye Chen with deep meaning, "You actually know about the Tianji Pill?"
Ye Chen coughed dryly and touched the tip of his nose, "A few days ago, Xiong Er and I went to the Netherworld Black Market. I also heard what others said."
Xu Fu withdrew his gaze imperceptibly, and answered Ye Chen's question, "The Tianji Pill is the highest level elixir I know. If divided by levels, it is the Six Patterns elixir."
"Is Tianji Pill difficult to refine?" Ye Chen looked at Xu Fu doubtfully, "Senior Dan Chen is so powerful, but he can't refine it?"
"What are you playing for?" Xu Fu glanced at Ye Chen angrily, "Every kind of elixir has a corresponding recipe. There is no recipe for Tianji Dan. Even Dan Chen doesn't know how to refine it. Even if Even if there is a prescription for the elixir, I probably won’t be able to find enough spiritual herbs needed to refine the Tianji elixir.”
"I don't know who or which force took away Nakong Ming..."
"You talk so much nonsense." Xu Fu kicked Ye Chen back to the alchemy furnace, "Is that what you should be concerned about?"
With that said, Xu Fu threw an ancient scroll to Ye Chen casually and cursed angrily, "This is the recipe for Hui Xuan Dan. Study it carefully. Once you have understood it, you can refine the elixir for me. Don't let me be lazy." .”
Well!
Ye Chen touched the tip of his nose and gently opened the recipe for Xuan Dan.
You don’t know if you don’t see it, but you will be shocked when you see it!
After taking a brief look at it, he realized that this alchemy was much more complicated than refining jade spirit liquid. It required extremely high flame control. Even a small error in the process could lead to the failure of the alchemy.
"This is just a magical elixir!" Ye Chen clicked his tongue.
However, in order to become an alchemist, this difficulty was not a problem for him. While he was studying the alchemy recipe, he was also recalling Xu Fu's previous alchemy in his mind, and this combination allowed him to catch a glimpse of it.
Not far away, Xu Fu was lying leisurely on a chair, still dozing, and occasionally narrowed his eyes to look at Ye Chen.
Only when night fell did Ye Chen really put down the prescription.
He also fell into a slumber like Xu Fu, and the scene of Xu Fu refining Xuandan was replayed in his mind without limit.
I don't know when, he slowly opened his eyes, and then took a deep breath, and then he put the real fire into the alchemy furnace with a thought, and then he threw several spiritual grasses into the alchemy furnace one after another. .
Because he had previous experience in refining jade spirit liquid, he was quite proficient in controlling flames.
Soon, he extracted the essence of each medicinal plant that was put in, and then more herbs were put in.
However, he still underestimated the tediousness of refining alchemy. When refining elixir for the first time, it was inevitable that he would be in a hurry and lose control of the flames.
The first alchemy failed.
Ye Chen stopped, secretly found out the mistake, and poured the real fire into the alchemy furnace, and began to make the alchemy for the second time.
Next, he continued to be frustrated.
After being frustrated again and again, the ground was covered with spiritual grass that had been burned and was full of residue.
Xu Fu prepared hundreds of copies of the magical herb for the Hui Xuan Pill for him, so that Ye Chen could learn from his experience in failure and find out the true meaning of alchemy.
As dawn approached, Ye Chen still failed to refine the Hui Xuan Pill. Instead, his face was very pale. Refining the pill consumed his soul power. A night of refining the pill made his soul power overwhelmed, and his mind was buzzing.
Finally, he staggered to his knees and half-knelt on the ground, breathing heavily.
"If you are too eager for success, you will be self-defeating." Xu Fu's voice came from the sleepy place.
"I underestimated alchemy." Ye Chen shook his head helplessly.
"Refining alchemy is the same as cultivating Taoism. You need to have a clear mind." Xu Fu glanced at Ye Chen and scolded harshly, "Your heart is not calm at all and you have distracting thoughts. This is a taboo for alchemists."
"I...I understand." Ye Chen listened attentively to Xu Fu's teachings.
He really couldn't calm down, because too many things in the past made him too eager to become a strong man. He was used to the excitement of fighting, but he couldn't adapt to the calmness of making alchemy.
"Eat it and continue to refine it." Xu Fu called a pill from the air, "If you can't even refine the Xuanhui Pill, then I really have to question your ability as an alchemist."
Ye Chen had already waved to take the elixir, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
