Chapter 1314: Priceless treasure

Views:

After Ye Zan scanned all the herbs, the alchemy APP popped up a prompt message asking whether to retrieve the corresponding elixir recipe in the database. This is of course also a convenient function specially set up by Ye Zan in the Alchemy APP, which can simplify some subsequent calculation and deduction operations.

"Fellow Taoist Wuji, what does this reminder mean?"

Those people from the outside world were not illiterate, but they had never played this thing before, so when they suddenly saw the prompt popping up, they were inevitably a little confused for a while. In their view, this kind of timely response based on the operator's behavior is somewhat similar to the so-called "machine spirit". However, Qianli Chuanshen is not a spiritual treasure, but a mass-produced magical weapon. How could there be a "weapon spirit"

Of course, from Ye Zan's side, the "weapon spirit" of this world is just a kind of artificial intelligence. Therefore, although "tool spirit" and AI intelligence in smart devices are not exactly the same thing, they do have a lot in common.

However, the "weapon spirits" in this world are too rare, and they often require some opportunities to appear, making "spiritual treasures" very rare. Artificial intelligence in the technological world is relatively simple. As long as there is one copy of AI intelligence, there can be as many copies of AI intelligence as you want.

"Fellow Taoists, don't be surprised. This is just a small function of the alchemy assistant." Facing everyone's surprise, Ye Zan waved his hands indifferently, and then further explained to the crowd: "Among the alchemy assistants, I Some common prescriptions on the market have been stored in advance. Therefore, when the type of herbal medicine scanned matches one of the prescriptions, the prescription will be automatically retrieved to reduce some subsequent operations. However, I want to do it now. What we are demonstrating is the calculation and deduction process of the alchemy assistant, so we will not directly retrieve the elixir recipe.”

After explaining to everyone, Ye Zan actually clicked the cancel button and canceled the alchemy assistant's request for the elixir. As that choice disappeared, the Alchemy Assistant's interface immediately changed, entering a specialized calculation and deduction interface.

In this calculation and deduction interface, there is the name of the functional interface at the top, which reads "Alchemy Calculation". Then below, there are various options, some clickable drop-down menus, and various alchemy terms.

"As you can see, the herbs we scanned just now have been recorded. At this place, I only need to click to open and view the previous scan results." Ye Zan was operating Qianli Chuanshen while Explain to the people around you.

During Ye Zan's operation, the projection screen also changed accordingly. The alchemy calculation interface was covered by another interface, which displayed the scan results of all herbal medicines. Of course, due to the screen size of Qianli Chuanshen, the scan results of the herbal medicine are not fully displayed, and will only be further displayed after specifically clicking on them.

"Now that we know what elixir we want to make, we naturally have to choose the herbs according to the elixir recipe and calculate the ratio." Ye Zan said, and selected the main medicine from the scan list of the herbal medicine.

After Ye Zan clicked on the herbal medicine, the interface displayed on the projection screen also returned to the screen of alchemy calculation. Everyone also clearly saw that the selected main medicine appeared on the calculation screen, followed by other herbs that needed to be entered into the ratio calculation.

In this way, Ye Zan demonstrated to everyone step by step, and the ratio of each herbal medicine was quickly calculated. Although the smart chip in Thousand Miles of Legend is not as good as Ye Zan's auxiliary chip, its computing power is already quite powerful. Basically, Ye Zan made his choice, clicked OK to start calculation, and the calculation results appeared in less than a second.

This kind of calculation speed is definitely hundreds or thousands of times faster than the alchemists' calculations based on experience. Of course, these hundreds to thousands of times are scary to say, but assuming that the calculation time of the alchemy assistant is one second, hundreds to thousands of times will only take a few minutes. However, this is a case where experience is not a problem. If experience is not very useful, the contrast may be even more obvious.

And there is another point that must be mentioned. The calculation and deduction process during alchemy is relatively simple at the beginning, just like doing the calculation problem that one plus one equals two. But later on, the synthetic products of various herbs have to react with other synthetic products, so the calculations that need to be done become complicated.

It's like doing a calculation problem. The result you get has to be involved in the next problem, and you even get involved layer by layer. And once a problem occurs in a certain link during this process, you need to go back and adjust the previous deduction. And if you make adjustments here, you may wait until you reach a certain step, and other places will need to be adjusted accordingly. If you make adjustments on one side, the other side may also need to be adjusted. It can be said that one move affects the whole body, so it is by no means an easy matter.

In the alchemy assistant, of course there is also the problem of adjustment, but the adjustment is much more convenient and simpler. During the demonstration, Ye Zan also demonstrated this aspect to everyone. He casually made some adjustments to the deduction process, and he could immediately see the adjustment results given by the alchemy assistant.

After Ye Zan's demonstration, everyone quickly saw the final deduction result on the projection screen, a detailed proportioning plan for alchemy. In this plan, the consumption of each herb is given, as well as the synthesis conditions of various herbs, such as the order of putting them into the alchemy furnace and the temperature requirements, etc.

Of course, one thing to mention here is that when actually making an elixir, not only one herb of each type is needed, but some may have ten or hundreds of herbs thrown in. Therefore, the scanning analysis of the alchemy assistant does not mean scanning one herb of each herb, but it requires scanning every herb. However, in this aspect, Ye Zan of course also considered the tediousness of the operation, so he has a batch scanning function.

In addition, the alchemy assistant's scan is not based on image comparison, but is scanned with special energy rays. However, the emission of this energy ray is combined with Qianli's vivid rear camera, and it will start automatically when scanning the herbs. In addition, for each herb, the alchemy assistant will also mark it to help the alchemist conveniently select the herbs for alchemy.

Ye Zan also demonstrated these things to everyone, and finally determined the refining plan of the "Soul-Condensing Pill" and selected all the herbs to be used.

What surprised Lord Yuan Luo was that after the alchemy assistant's calculations and deductions, there were actually some herbs left. You must know that the remaining herbs were originally recorded in the elixir recipe and considered essential by everyone.

"Fellow Taoist Wuji, how come there are so many herbs left?" Seeing this result, Zhenjun Yuanluo couldn't help but ask Ye Zan.

As for Zhenjun Yuanluo's inquiry, many people present who were familiar with the "Soul Condensing Pill" formula also felt quite confused. Therefore, after Zhenjun Yuanluo asked the question, the scene suddenly became very quiet. Everyone's eyes fell on Ye Zan, waiting for Ye Zan to give a perfect answer.

Faced with Zhenjun Yuanluo's question, Ye Zan did not panic at all. He stretched out his hand and clicked a few times on Qianli Zhenshen, causing the projection screen to change. Then he said: "It is natural for fellow Taoist Yuanluo to have this question. I am also correct." I’m going to talk about this question. Fellow Taoists, please take a closer look. This is the calculation and deduction process of the alchemy assistant. In fact, the reason why the remaining herbs are always necessary is because we usually use them. When refining elixirs, it is impossible to be so precise. For example, if there is no precise control at this step, some toxins will remain, and naturally some ingredients in these herbs are needed to resolve them. "

Ye Zan was very patient and explained to everyone in detail, breaking down the calculation and deduction process that had been passed over before so that everyone could see it more clearly.

In fact, situations like this are not limited to the "Soul-Condensing and Soul-Gathering Pill" prescription. Almost all pill prescriptions will have similar problems. In the final analysis, it is because the alchemist cannot achieve the accuracy of a machine with only human power, and it is inevitable that there will be various synthetic residues.

After some explanation, Ye Zan concluded: "Therefore, if you follow the calculations and deductions of the alchemy assistant and accurately control the proportions of these ingredients when making alchemy, these herbs do not need to be added. You know, After adding these herbs, although some residual toxins will be resolved, it will also have some new effects. The most direct impact is on the quality of the final elixir when it is released. This is also difficult for the best soul-condensing and soul-gathering elixir. important reasons.”

"That's it!" After listening to Ye Zan's explanation, everyone seemed to suddenly realize.

However, after listening to Ye Zan's final summary, Qingmu Zhenjun suddenly became energetic and quickly asked: "Fellow Taoist just said that these herbs will affect the quality of the elixir. Could it be said that according to this method of making elixirs? Can the assistant’s deduction really lead to the ultimate elixir?”

You know, Ye Zan just demonstrated one type of elixir, which does not mean that the alchemy assistant can only deduce this one type of elixir. In other words, the alchemy assistant can also do this with other kinds of elixirs. Then, what Ye Zan said about the problem of the best soul-condensing and soul-gathering pills can naturally be extended to other pills.

Lord Aoki's words reminded everyone of why everyone came here. Isn't it just because Ye Zan refined the best Tiangang Divine Pill, but in the end, no one believed that he had this ability. He just took out this alchemy assistant to prove that he had the ability to refine the best elixirs.

On Ye Zan's side, after hearing True Lord Qingmu's questioning, he smiled and nodded, saying: "Fellow Taoist Qingmu is right, as long as you strictly follow this deduction to refine the elixir, theoretically it is indeed possible to refine it. Excellent elixir."

"Theoretically?" Lord Aoki asked slightly doubtfully.

"Yes, in theory! Fellow Taoist should understand that when we refine the elixir, it does not mean that we will be able to successfully refine the elixir after conducting deductions. When we actually open the furnace to refine the elixir, There are many other factors that will affect the quality of the elixir in the alchemy furnace. For example, the alchemy assistant mentioned that during this step, we must control the temperature of the furnace fire to the required standard. , if there are not only these kinds of herbs in the alchemy furnace, we also need to be distracted to take care of other refining processes. Therefore, if we want to achieve true perfection, we still need to be at the level of alchemy and have sufficient attainments. Okay." Ye Zan still used the data in the projection screen as an example to explain to Aoki Aoki and others why he said it was "theoretically" possible to refine the best elixir.

After listening to Ye Zan's explanation, Qingmu Zhenjun couldn't help but nodded in agreement, and said with emotion: "It is indeed as fellow Taoist said! No wonder fellow Taoist said before that this alchemy assistant is just an assistant and will not really replace I am an alchemy cultivator. In the end, this assistant is just a reference for me and solves the complicated work for me. The actual refining of the elixir depends on my own ability."

"Yes, this alchemy assistant is indeed of great help to alchemy cultivators like us. If we have an alchemy assistant, we can start refining alchemy in the future. Even if we cannot refine the best product, at least we will not fail. "Zhenjun Baiyun also nodded in agreement.

And just when everyone was full of interest and desire for the alchemy assistant displayed by Ye Zan, a slightly harsh voice rang out.

"Haha, fellow Taoists, please calm down!" What was harsh was not the voice, but the tone in it. A person from the outside world on the periphery sneered and said to everyone: "This alchemy assistant, although he is thousands of miles away, It is a sustenance to convey the spirit, but it is so helpful in refining alchemy, and its value is absolutely priceless. Please don’t forget that Fellow Taoist Wuji showed me this alchemy assistant, which only proves that he is capable of refining the best Tiangang Alchemy. Divine elixir, but I didn’t say I would give it to you.”

These sarcastic remarks were like a bucket of ice water poured on everyone's heads, immediately calming everyone down. Everyone's eyes fell on the Thousand Miles of God in Ye Zan's hand. If it weren't for their scruples about the Moyi Cult, they might have already snatched it away.

Indeed, it can increase the success rate of alchemy. In theory, it can even allow people to refine the best elixirs. The value of this alchemy assistant can be imagined. You must know that this theoretical ability does not only affect ordinary elixirs, but covers almost all elixirs. In other words, even if it is an elixir, as long as you can get the materials and really have the ability to refine it, it is possible to refine it to the best quality.

If such a thing is placed in the hands of others, it is absolutely impossible to share it with others from their own hearts. So now that this thing is in Ye Zan's hands, why do they think that Ye Zan is really so selfless and willing to share this thing with everyone
