Looking at this medicine cauldron, Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction.
The medicine cauldron I got from Liu Xi is just one of the lowest level medicine cauldrons.
But for a novice like him, it is perfect.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng picked up the introductory book on alchemy that he got from Liu Xi, and looked at the techniques for using the medicine cauldron recorded on it again.
Then, according to the instructions above, place your hand on the fire mouth of the medicine cauldron and circulate the fighting spirit to the palm of your hand.
As soon as the fighting spirit reached the palm of his hand, the medicine cauldron instantly emitted a suction force, sucking the fighting spirit in Lin Feng's palm through the fire mouth.
"puff"
With a muffled sound, the fighting spirit flow was suddenly transformed into a red real flame after passing through the fire mouth.
Inside the medicine cauldron, it was constantly churning and burning.
The palm suddenly spewed fire, which startled Lin Feng and he almost pulled his hand back reflexively.
Fortunately, he remembered what the book taught him and suppressed his panic.
Looking at the roiling flames in the medicine cauldron, he closed his eyes and slowly calmed his mind.
The powerful soul perception ability constantly scans the thin trace of wood power back and forth in the body.
After nearly ten minutes, Lin Feng finally found that trace of wood power in his body.
Extend a finger and tap lightly on the other fire hole.
An extremely thin stream of green air was slowly poured in.
As soon as the green airflow entered the medicine cauldron, the red flame inside suddenly became quiet as if a chemical reaction had occurred.
At this time, even Lin Feng had not yet controlled the fire.
It can also be sensed that the violent factor in the flame has been neutralized by the power of wood.
And because of the principle that wood produces fire.
The flame at this time was obviously more persistent and controllable than before.
He left the medicine cauldron and picked up a prescription called "Rejuvenation Powder" and started looking at it again.
Huichun Powder is not a mainstream medicine. Sprinkling it on wounds can stop bleeding and prevent infection, but it can only be used for external injuries. The required ingredients are: Biqinghua, Huichuncao, and Baibaoteng.
As for the medicinal materials needed for alchemy, he had already spent 20,000 gold coins to buy 100 of them at the Miter Auction House, which was enough for him to practice.
After reading it, he lit the fire again and flicked his fingers on the ring.
A faint light flashed, and a turquoise medicinal herb appeared in Lin Feng's hand, which he then threw into the medicine cauldron.
As soon as the green flower entered the medicine cauldron, flames leaped up before Lin Feng could control it.
In a flash, it turned into a handful of pitch-black ash, and was finally expelled from the medicine cauldron by a special feature of the cauldron.
"Well"
Lin Feng looked at the black ash in the medicine cauldron, scratched his head awkwardly, and picked up another green flower and threw it in.
This time, the blue flower lasted a little longer in the flames, but still turned into black ashes.
"The temperature seems to be a little higher"
After going back and forth for more than ten times, Lin Feng carefully controlled the flame, and his soul perception firmly compressed the temperature of the flame.
His eyes looked through the ice mirror, fixed on the azure flower floating on the flame.
After churning in the medicine cauldron for a while, the blue flower gradually began to shed its skin.
The juice contained in the grass leaves was gradually smoked into green powder.
A moment later, Lin Feng obtained a green powder with scattered black spots.
Looking at the finished product in his hand, Lin Feng showed a smile on his face.
Although the temperature control was still a little lacking this time, it was still a success.
An hour later, Lin Feng looked at the more than twenty pieces of powder extracted from the azure flower beside him and nodded with satisfaction.
He then picked up a plant of rejuvenation grass and threw it into the medicine cauldron and began to refine it.
After refining more than twenty parts, he began to refine the Baibao vine.
After twenty portions of the Treasure Vine were extracted, Lin Feng's face turned slightly pale. He could no longer hold on, so he stopped extracting the medicine and sat down on the ground powerlessly.
Although his martial arts skills were at the intermediate level of the Xuan grade, controlling two medicine cauldrons for nearly four hours was already his limit.
"It seems that refining medicine is not an easy job!"
Feeling that the fighting spirit in his body was almost exhausted, Lin Feng sighed.
He quickly sat cross-legged next to the medicine cauldron, practiced his skills, and began to cultivate.
The effect of practicing at this time is the best.
After closing his eyes and cultivating for a period of time, the cyclone in Lin Feng's body, which had seemed dim due to the exhaustion of fighting spirit, once again emitted a bright luster.
Moreover, this time the halo seemed to be a little brighter than a few hours ago.
He slowly opened his eyes, and the numbness and weakness all over his body had mostly disappeared.
He twisted his neck, and the sound of bones colliding made Lin Feng breathe a sigh of relief.
Then he began the most difficult and most crucial step in medicine refining: drug fusion!
The reason why it is the most difficult is that the firepower required for each medicinal ingredient is different.
Fusion medicine requires adding multiple medicinal materials at once, and requires precise control of the firepower of each medicinal material.
He took a deep breath, lit the fire skillfully, and threw the juice of the vine into the medicine cauldron.
A few minutes later, he picked up the rejuvenation grass essence beside him and threw it in again.
After the two are blended, quickly throw in the azure flower powder.
Lin Feng stared at the medicine cauldron and began to blend the green and white liquids, controlling the flame to start heating up.
"Bang!"
Just as the fusion was about to succeed, Lin Feng accidentally raised the temperature of the flame a little bit, and the medicinal materials inside instantly turned into black ash.
He exhaled and put the ingredients in again. The fusion began.
"Bang!"
The fire is too high and failure occurs.
Add the ingredients again.
….After
several consecutive failures, Lin Feng felt that he had almost found the right temperature.
The materials were thrown in again, and in an instant, the raging flames enveloped the various materials again and began to fuse.
When the last trace of blue-gray color was successfully integrated, Lin Feng immediately reduced the gunpowder.
When the time was right, he waved his hand vigorously, and a ball of green liquid fell accurately into the jade bottle that had been prepared long ago.
"Hehe, from now on, I am also considered an alchemist."
Looking at the medicine in the jade bottle, Lin Feng suddenly felt a surge of pride in his heart.
Although because the fire was turned off too quickly, there are some mottled colors in it.
But no matter what, this is already a bottle of medicine that can be sold normally.
"Boom."
Lin Feng pushed open the stone door of the alchemy room and took a look at the date table on the opposite wall that was updated daily by the Alchemist Guild.
"It turns out that seven days have passed."
Lin Feng scratched his messy hair which had not been washed for a week.
He had been frantically refining medicine these days and didn't expect that seven days had already passed.
I returned to the inn and extended my room for another month at the front desk.
He went into the room, washed up, put on his alchemist apprentice badge, and went to the Alchemist Guild's trading market.
When you buy medicinal materials there, not only are the varieties rich, but the safety is also more guaranteed than other places.
After all, anyone who can set up a stall there must be extremely wealthy.
Unless you have something extremely rare, no one would have the time to become a robber.
After entering the Alchemist Guild, Lin Feng walked straight to the east area, which was the trading area specially designated by the guild.
When we arrived at the trading area, we found that the vendors here were completely different from those outside.
Instead of shouting loudly to attract customers, they sat leisurely on the soft chairs, and some even started making tea.
If someone asks the price, he will stand up and talk to them.
Transactions worth hundreds of thousands of dollars often occur over just a few simple conversations.
After searching in the market for a while, Lin Feng came to a small stall that looked to have a relatively rich supply of medicinal materials. He asked the stall owner, who was in his sixties, "Senior, I need the medicinal materials for thirty hemostatic pills. Do you have any?"
"hehe."
The old man stroked his goatee and said with a smile: "It's just the ingredients for a first-grade elixir. If you add so many, there will be enough!"
"What's the price for thirty copies?" Hearing the old man's affirmative tone, Lin Feng asked again.
"Fifty thousand gold coins, or a pill of equal value."
"Senior, this is a second-grade peak medicine Qi-restoring pill, it should be enough."
Hearing this, Lin Feng touched his storage ring, took out a wooden box and handed it over.
The old man took the wooden box, opened it and nodded slightly: "Yes, it is indeed the Qi-recovering Pill. Take it."
As he spoke, the old man also touched his storage ring, and the originally empty stall was instantly filled with all kinds of medicinal herbs.
Lin Feng glanced over it and didn't find anything wrong.
He put it into his storage ring, then bowed to the old man and said, "Since the transaction is completed, I will take my leave."
After saying that, he walked towards the alchemy room he rented.
"Huh, thanks to Liu Xi's rich collection, otherwise I might not be able to afford these thirty herbs even if I refine the rejuvenation liquid for a month."
Returning to the alchemy room and placing the herbs beside him, Lin Feng couldn't help but thank Liu Xi again.
If this first-class alchemist hadn't brought him so many things, he would probably still be worrying about his skills.
After adjusting his state, Lin Feng immediately released the medicine cauldron. Today, he was going to try to refine a genuine first-grade elixir.
Although he was already able to refine some liquid medicines, he could only be considered a first-class alchemist if he could refine pill-shaped pills.
He made a fire skillfully, and with a wave of his hand, a blood-clotting grass beside him was thrown into the medicine cauldron.
"Is this the hemostatic pill? The prescription says it's blood red, right? This pill seems to be too poisonous. Can it be considered a success?"
Lin Feng looked at the dark red pill in his hand and thought uncertainly.
Then he shook his head and finally understood why only those who could make elixirs could be considered first-class alchemists.
Originally, he thought that if he could refine the liquid medicine, then refining pills would not be too difficult.
After working hard for a long time and using up thirty portions of medicinal materials, this is the thing that came out.
Thinking of those medicinal herbs, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a trace of heartache in his eyes.
He only got three Qi-restoring pills from Liu Xina's ring.
And during this half day's effort, all the medicinal herbs obtained from one of the pills were wasted.
Lin Feng thought to himself: "Should I take a pharmacist as my teacher?"
Immediately, Lin Feng suppressed this idea.
If he were to become an apprentice now, unless there were special circumstances, he would have to stay with this teacher and learn until he became a master.
This is nothing for ordinary people, but for Lin Feng, it is a disaster.
After all, by that time, many of the adventures he knew about had already been taken away by Xiao Yan.
Besides, he plans to go to Canaan College in two years. If he becomes his disciple, then you will go to the college to study. Isn't this a slap in the face of the teacher?
