Of course, some alchemists don't like to add spiritual water, but Han Daozhen likes to add spiritual water when making pills. Spiritual water can increase the success rate of making pills, so it is better to add a little spiritual water.
Han Changming was a little nervous. This was his first time to refine the elixir. He kept recalling the various key points of refining the fasting elixir in his mind.
After half a quarter of an hour, a strange fragrance wafted out of the alchemy furnace. Han Changming was shocked. This strange fragrance was exactly the same as the fragrance of the Bigu Pill. Han Daozheng had personally refined the Bigu Pill. According to the pill recipe, at this time the alchemy materials are just turning into liquids, and the time to condense the pill must be just right. If it is too early, the pill has not yet taken shape, and the medicinal power of the elixir will be greatly reduced. If it is too late, it will easily become a waste pill.
Condensing the pill is the most important step. Han Changming took a deep breath to calm his nervous mind.
After a while, a pungent burnt smell wafted out from the alchemy furnace.
Han Changming smiled bitterly, he knew that his first attempt at refining the elixir had failed.
He carefully recalled the process of alchemy, summed up his experience, cleaned the alchemy furnace, and continued to make the alchemy.
The second batch of fasting pills also ended in failure.
Han Changming sighed lightly. Only when he made the elixir himself did he realize how difficult it was. He finally understood how optimistic he was at the beginning. Making the elixir was not an easy task at all. Even with Han Daozheng's guidance, he still failed, and that was the Bigu Pill.
If the spiritual water was made using the Taiyi Hualing Gourd, I wonder if the success rate in making pills would be higher.
"Changming, do you know where you went wrong?" Han Daozheng asked in a deep voice.
"I haven't mastered the temperature well enough. I believe I can succeed if I try refining it a few more times." Han Changming said confidently.
He had just started learning alchemy, so failure was normal. If he was given a few more materials, he believed he could make it.
"Here are twenty sets of materials for refining the Bigu Pills. You must refine at least fifty Bigu Pills. I will come to collect the Bigu Pills in five days. I am busy with other things. This underground fire room is for you to use! Practice hard." Han Daozhen took out a green storage bag and handed it to Han Changming.
"Yes, Uncle Jiu." Han Changming accepted the storage bag and felt secretly delighted.
With no one watching him, he could use the spiritual water produced by the Taiyi Hualing Gourd to refine pills.
After Han Daozheng left, Han Changming closed the door of the alchemy room and continued to make the elixir. This time, he added the spiritual water produced by Taiyi Hualing Gourd.
The result disappointed Han Changming, he still failed in refining. It seems that the spiritual water produced by Taiyi Hualing Gourd is not omnipotent. Han Changshuo was able to pass the test because his pill refining success rate was not low. Simply put, the spiritual water produced by Taiyi Hualing Gourd only played an auxiliary role.
Han Changming learned his lesson, wiped the alchemy furnace clean, and started making elixirs again.
Five days passed quickly.
Han Changming sat cross-legged on the cushion, his eyes fixed on the alchemy furnace. A strange fragrance flew out of the alchemy furnace.
Not long after, Han Changming turned off the fire and opened the alchemy furnace. He could see fifteen yellow pills as big as longan seeds in the furnace.
He picked up a yellow pill between two fingers and examined it carefully.
The yellow pills are bright in color, round in shape and in good quality.
Han Changming showed a look of delight and put away the fifteen fasting pills.
A full batch of Bigu Pills contains thirty-six pills, but Han Changming can only refine fifteen of them now, with a success rate of less than half.
With twenty sets of materials, he refined a total of 105 Bigu Pills. After failing seven times in a row, he finally succeeded.
After using ten portions of materials, Han Changming's success rate in making pills was about 10%. After adding the spiritual water produced by the Taiyi Hualing Gourd, the success rate increased to 40%. I don't know if it was because the level of the Bigu Pill was too low.
If Han Changming did not use the spiritual water made by Taiyi Hualing Gourd, he could only refine four Bigu Pills in one furnace. After adding the spiritual water made by Taiyi Hualing Gourd, Han Changming could refine fifteen Bigu Pills at most. Not only that, the quality of the pills made by using the spiritual water made by Taiyi Hualing Gourd was better and the efficacy was better.
A sharp and clear sound was heard. Han Changming took out the communication disk and typed in a spell. Han Daozhen's voice suddenly rang out: "Changming, have you finished refining the Bigu?"
Han Changming hurriedly opened the door of the alchemy room and invited Han Daohe in.
He handed over sixty-five fasting pills. If he had handed over too many, it might have aroused Han Daozheng's suspicion.
Han Daozhen picked up a Bigu Pill and examined it carefully. A strange look flashed in his eyes and he asked doubtfully, "Changming, did you make all these Bigu Pills?"
"Yes! Uncle Jiu, is there a problem?" Han Changming looked nervous. Of course, he was pretending, because he knew there was no problem with the Qigong Pill.
In order to avoid arousing Han Daozheng's suspicion, he diluted the spiritual water, and the quality of the pills he refined was better, but not too good.
Han Daozheng placed the fasting pill between his nose, sniffed it a few times, and put it in his mouth. Soon, a feeling of fullness rose from his abdomen.
He showed an approving expression on his face and said, "Not bad. You were able to refine 65 Bigu Pills with 20 ingredients. The quality is quite good, beyond my expectation. It seems that you are really talented in alchemy. However, your success rate is too low. You need to practice diligently to increase your success rate to 30%. Only when the success rate of three first-level pills reaches 30%, you can be considered a first-level alchemist. Don't slack off and practice diligently."
"Yes, grandson will keep Uncle Jiu's teachings in mind." Han Changming agreed honestly with a happy look on his face.
Han Daozhen asked Han Changming about the process of refining the Qigong Pill. Han Changming concealed the spiritual water and answered other questions truthfully. He also raised a few small questions, which Han Daozhen answered carefully.
"By the way, Uncle Jiu, is there still no news about my grandfather? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
Han Changming felt a little puzzled. Such a long time had passed, and there was still no news of Han Daohe. Could something have happened to him
"I don't know. The personnel transfer within the clan is not under my control. Don't worry. My eleventh brother will be fine with the family caravan. Just focus on your training and wait for him to come back. You can give him a big surprise."
Han Changming thought about it and felt that what Han Daozhen said made sense. If Han Daohe knew that he had become an alchemist, he would definitely be very happy!
After returning to his residence, the two spirit beast bags on Han Changming's waist became restless. He released the alligator turtle beast and the purple crystal flying scorpion. The alligator turtle beast wanted to eat monster meat, and the purple crystal flying scorpion wanted to eat poisonous grass or monster spirits.
Han Changming met their needs, took out a huge piece of green clam meat and fed it to the alligator turtle beast. The alligator turtle beast ate the green clam meat in no time.
The Amethyst Flying Scorpion was only satisfied after it devoured the spirits of more than fifty first-level monsters.
After playing with them for a while, Han Changming took out a blue porcelain bottle, drank the spiritual water inside, and started practicing the cultivation formula of "Hou Tu Jue".
Not long after, a large area of yellow light appeared out of nowhere and covered Han Changming's body.
