Chapter 63: The Hardship of Alchemy
There are many martial arts sects, all of which are tit-for-tat, and they wish the other party would make the slightest mistake, and then they will not let go. What surprised Shen Xiang was that a young man like Zhang Long, who is at the eighth level of the ordinary martial arts realm, was not taken seriously. It can be imagined that there must be many powerful warriors in those martial arts sects, and the warriors who can be taken seriously must have a bright future.
Things calmed down, and Shen Xiang began to concentrate on learning alchemy and ripening elixirs. He did not eat the Zhenyuan Pill because Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou both suggested that he eat it when he reached a bottleneck, which would be of great use to him.
After the Yao family's medicine business was taken over by the Shen family, the prices also dropped, which made many warriors very happy, and they all supported the Shen family. From this respect, the Shen family was very popular, which was of great help to future development.
In this world, the law of the jungle is the most normal thing. The wealth accumulated by the Yao family for many years belonged to the Shen family in one day! This is also the Yao family asking for trouble. If he had not wanted to oppose the Shen family, he would still be fine now.
After annexing the Yao Family, Shen Xiang has no shortage of spiritual herbs for refining pills. Right now, he is picking some spiritual herbs in the Yao Family's medicine garden, preparing to use them to refine ordinary-grade top-grade pills. The refining process of ordinary-grade top-grade pills is not only much more difficult, but the spiritual herbs required are also more precious.
There are not many types of ordinary high-grade pills, and only a few are frequently used. They are also the most useful to warriors, and are very difficult to refine. Pills like this must be mastered by alchemists. When Shen Xiang began to learn to refine higher-level pills, he always chose this type of pill first.
"The status of top-grade mortal pills is a bit awkward! How should I put it? In the real martial arts world, there are generally more martial artists above the tenth level of the mortal realm, and they are relatively wealthy! These people have extremely high requirements for elixirs, so when they buy elixirs, they generally don't choose mortal-grade pills, they all choose middle and lower-grade spiritual-grade pills, and the purchase quantity is very large, and they also have great effects after taking them." Su Meiyao said.
Shen Xiang said: "So, in those martial arts sects, all the martial artists at the eighth and ninth levels of the martial arts realm are very poor?"
Su Meiyao said: "Of course, so they can only afford to buy upper-middle-grade elixirs. But you have to know that upper-grade elixirs are not very effective for warriors at the ninth and eighth levels of the mortal realm."
"So, you only need to master those kinds of high-grade ordinary pills that are more expensive, mainly the Peiqi Pill, Dayuan Pill, and Huajing Pill." Su Meiyao said.
Shen Xiang was familiar with these pills. They were indeed the more expensive ones among the top-grade ordinary pills. The effects were very obvious after taking them. They were very useful. The Qi-cultivating Pills were mainly used to improve the quality of the true Qi, allowing some warriors to refine the true Qi to be purer.
The Da Yuan Dan is an elixir that improves one's cultivation level. After taking it, one can obtain a large amount of spiritual energy. By directly refining it, one can cultivate a large amount of true qi. There is no need to worry about the thinness of the spiritual energy or the quality of the spiritual veins. The last one is the Hua Jing Dan, which can directly transform the true qi in the body into mental power. It is mainly used to strengthen the spiritual consciousness and cultivate the spiritual consciousness.
Shen Xiang has the Flame Dragon Treasure Furnace, which is a holy-level dragon device that can speed up the passage of time inside the furnace, allowing him to save a lot of time in refining this high-grade elixir.
You should know that some elixirs take several years or even decades to be successfully refined, but the Flame Dragon Treasure Furnace can help Master Shen Xiang shorten the time.
The first thing Shen Xiang refined was the Da Yuan Pill, because he wanted to improve his cultivation by taking this pill. Only when he reached the ninth level of the Mortal Martial Realm could he go to those big sects.
There are three main ingredients for the Da Yuan Pill. Although there are not many, they all need to be more than 500 years old. There are more than 20 auxiliary materials, the oldest of which needs to be 100 years old, and the youngest is 50 to 60 years old. This shows how precious Da Yuan is. If the alchemist fails, he will definitely cry for a long time.
"This stone-like fruit is really difficult to handle!" Shen Xiang has already started refining it. The medicinal materials originally belonged to the Yao family. There are only four portions, and each portion is worth more than 100,000 Great Spiritual Coins.
Although the Flame Dragon Furnace can make the flame more suitable for alchemy and control the temperature more freely, it is useless if you don't understand the heat tolerance of the elixir.
Shen Xiang now divided his spiritual consciousness into more than twenty strands, controlling more than twenty groups of flames to burn more than twenty kinds of spiritual medicines. Moreover, these spiritual medicines must be turned into powder at the same time, and the difference between the two cannot be too big. In addition, Shen Xiang also needs to use his utmost concentration to gather together the various medicinal auras extracted from the spiritual medicines, which consumes a lot of spiritual consciousness. However, the Flame Dragon Treasure Furnace can save his spiritual consciousness. He does not need to take pills to restore his spiritual consciousness while refining pills.
It seemed like a whole day had passed in Shen Xiang's consciousness inside the alchemy furnace, but only a short moment had passed outside! Because the time inside the Flame Dragon Treasure Furnace was passing faster, and it was different from the time outside!
"Damn it, it's all over!" Shen Xiang was sweating profusely, looking at the colorful mist rising from the Flame Dragon Furnace, and couldn't help but curse.
This was more than 100,000 Great Spiritual Money, which turned into smoke in an instant. It was good that Shen Xiang didn't cry.
"It's worthy of being called the Flame Dragon Furnace. It didn't even explode." Su Meiyao giggled.
"Sister Meiyao, please stop provoking me!" Shen Xiang muttered.
Just now, he failed because he was burning a spiritual medicine called "Iron Yuan Fruit". The strength of the Iron Yuan Fruit was beyond his imagination. It would not break no matter how much it was burned. This made him increase the flame immediately. However, the Iron Yuan Fruit exploded at that moment. The spiritual energy that gushed out caused the other medicinal powders and medicinal spiritual energy inside to mix into a ball, producing various reactions, and finally exploded and sprayed out from the outlet of the Flame Dragon Pill Furnace.
"I told you a long time ago that the fruit is very difficult to handle. I failed many times because of the gray fruit! Now that I see someone fail in front of me, of course I am very happy." Su Meiyao stuck out her rosy tongue at him and continued to giggle.
Every time when refining the elixir, Su Meiyao would come out and be with Shen Xiang. Sometimes she would wipe Shen Xiang's sweat, sometimes she would gloat over his misfortune, sometimes she would encourage Shen Xiang, and occasionally she would tease or seduce this innocent boy Shen Xiang.
Shen Xiang curled his lips and said: "You can afford to fail, but I can't. Now I only have three materials." He was amazed at the rich resources that Su Meiyao had when she was learning alchemy, and she could actually fail so many times.
"Good brother, don't be discouraged. I just remembered what happened back then and I miss it very much." Su Meiyao came over with a silk scarf, and wiped the sweat off Shen Xiang's face with a sweet smile.
Chen Xiang inhaled Su Meiyao's refreshing body fragrance, and felt her delicate hands caressing his cheek from time to time, which made him feel an indescribable beauty.
After resting, Shen Xiang continued to refine...
The second time, he failed again, and failed again when dealing with the Iron Yuan Fruit.
The third time, he successfully dealt with the Iron Yuan Fruit, but when he was finally condensing the pill, he was unable to control the fusion of the medicinal powders and medicinal spirit of various herbs, resulting in a small explosion in the Flame Dragon Treasure Furnace!
"I am such a spendthrift. In just two hours, nearly 400,000 Great Spiritual Money has evaporated." Shen Xiang was lying on the ground, looking at the mist floating in the secret room with a look of heartache.
