Chapter 354 (1/2)
Lin Haoming went back to the ancestral gate and bought the most common alchemy materials in Fangshi. He didn't go to see anyone again and went back to the cave directly.
Lin Haoming has been prepared for alchemy. Lin Haoming has read the cold flame Dan Sutra for many times. Of course, before cultivating the cold flame, Lin Haoming still needs to refine pills with ordinary methods. After all, this is the foundation of everything. Only after laying a good foundation can we study higher alchemy.
The basic alchemy technique is not a secret. Such ancient books are sold in Fangshi. When Lin Haoming took part in the secret land trial of falling devil Valley, some of the people who killed him could refine pills. He even got several alchemy level furnaces, one of which was a top-grade one.
Before, although Lin Haoming got a magic weapon furnace engraved with spirit grain, the grade of the furnace was too high. Although the success rate of refining pills was higher, he also had high requirements for magic power and divine sense. Now Lin Haoming is only the first time to refine pills. If you use that furnace, I'm afraid it will be finished in one furnace, and you will have to eat it without having to rest.
Therefore, for Lin Haoming, the alchemy furnace is still the most edible. The best alchemy stove not only stabilizes the flame when refining pills, but also consumes less mana and divinity, which is the most appropriate.
Lin Haoming first refined pills, so like other friars who made pills for the first time, he started with the simplest pills, and the easiest pills to refine were Bigu pills.
The main material of this pill is Polygonatum which is more than 100 years old. Polygonatum is also commonly used as a medicinal material among ordinary people. It is rare for it to be more than 20 or 30 years old. However, if you plant seeds randomly in a place with sufficient aura, you can grow a large area. Therefore, although it sounds like a long time for a hundred years, it is actually too easy to plant and its value is not high.
Lin Haoming can buy a hundred catties of Polygonatum with one spirit stone. This time, he spent ten spirit stones, preparing to refine the thousand catties of Huangjing into Bigu pill.
The basic steps of refining pills are also simple. First of all, it is natural to heat the furnace. After reaching a certain temperature, the materials are put into the furnace, then the materials are melted and the impurities in them are removed. Finally, the remaining liquid medicine can be condensed into a pill at a suitable time by using the appropriate formula.
Lin Haoming began to practice step by step according to the description in the alchemy classics.
For the first time, the temperature of the furnace was too high. Three catties of Polygonatum were thrown in and directly turned into fly ash.
The second time, the temperature is still high, although not immediately into fly ash, but also into coke, natural waste.
The third time, some of the temperature was too low. As a result, the melting solution was not well done, and the impurity could not be removed at all, and it was discarded again.
After seven or eight times of trying this way, we finally found the right temperature. After finding the right temperature, the next thing was very smooth. After all, Lin Haoming's divine sense was particularly strong. He mainly relied on his divine sense to capture the impurities in the liquid medicine. However, when he condensed the liquid into a pill, there was a problem again.
Perhaps it was Lin Haoming's own slow hand. As soon as the pill was formed, Lin Haoming found that the pills had become three, but each one was blackened and obviously a little burnt.
The second time, after getting familiar with the temperature, it was time for congealed liquid to become Dan. This time, Lin Haoming deliberately advanced a little, and finally refined the pill. However, after the pill was taken out, it seemed to be a little soft. According to the ancient records, this was caused by a little earlier condensation into Dan, but it should be regarded as a modest success, but the effect was not good 。
