Chapter 30 Alchemy Frustrated
"No, the color of this elixir is very different from what is described in "The Way of Elixirs"! If it is truly refined successfully, it should be white like jade, but now it is grayish-white..."
Bai Chuchu shook her head and frowned tightly.
"The medicinal materials are not wrong, and the control of firepower should be no problem..."
"In "The Way of Pills", it is clear that as long as the three main medicinal materials of the Blood Spirit Fruit, Night Spirit Leaf, and Snow Bone Ginseng are put into the furnace, and refine them with a constant medium heat for half an hour, and then refine them with a constant low heat for half an hour. At the last moment, the firepower is suddenly increased, and the medicine liquid is compressed with a fiery fire, and condense them into a pill!"
Bai Chuchu couldn't figure out what the problem was...
"Don't worry, do it again!"
Putting away the gray-white pill, she waved her hand and patted the cover of the stove, putting three medicinal herbs into the stove in one breath, and fired to refine the pill!
The same steps are still the same. This time Bai Chuchu's mental power is more concentrated, and she uses her spiritual sense to monitor the melting of herbs throughout the process!
I saw that the three medicinal materials gradually shrink after being heated in the alchemy furnace, and the sliver of the medicinal liquid evaporates, and then form three strands of threads twisted together.
The Blood Spirit Fruit is red, the Night Spirit Leaf is green, and the Snow Bone Ginseng is white. The medicinal liquids of the three medicinal materials also show their own colors, and they are entangled together, which looks very beautiful.
However, compared with the original appearance of the medicinal materials, the medicinal liquid evaporated after being heated is much dimmer.
As time goes by, Bai Chuchu no longer feels relaxed this time...
While she had to constantly use her spiritual power to control the size of the flame, she also had to use her spiritual sense to perceive the progress, which greatly damaged her mental and physical strength.
Gradually, fine sweat appeared on Bai Chuchu's forehead, and she began to feel exhausted.
But she did not stop and continued to input spiritual power!
"Changing Pill!"
Suddenly, Bai Chuchu shouted and exerted force suddenly.
The flames suddenly rose, and the orange light shone brightly. The medicine in the alchemy furnace made a slight sound, and it rotated rapidly. The volume shrank and smaller, and finally solidified into a small round object.
"open!"
As the stove cover flew up, a small and exquisite pill jumped into Bai Chuchu's hands again.
"Oh! Still off-white..."
Bai Chuchu couldn't help but feel a little discouraged and sat on the ground regardless of her image.
She was really tired, and her high concentration of energy and the output of spiritual power and spiritual consciousness made her a little uncomfortable.
When practicing normally, Bai Chuchu only practices one of them in a targeted manner. Either focus on improving spiritual power or focus on strengthening spiritual consciousness.
Unexpectedly, the alchemy had to combine the two, which made her feel a little embarrassed...
"No, you can't be lazy at this time. If you continue to persevere, you can not only squeeze your potential, but also enhance your coordination and control!"
Bai Chuchu bit her lip hard, regardless of her fatigue, immediately stood up and began to engage in a new round of alchemy process.
As time passed by bit by bit, she had forgotten everything else around her and was immersed in her great alchemy...
Bai Chuchu's clothes were wet and stewed by sweat, and then wet and wet. Her long hair, which was always flowing and smooth, became messy.
"Only the last set of medicinal herbs are left..." She murmured in her mouth.
Looking at the nine gray-white pills placed at hand, Bai Chuchu felt a little disappointed!
She just looked through the jade slips again. According to the description in the book, these are waste pills with more than 90% of the impurities!
"I clearly did it according to the pill recipe meticulously, why can't it be done?"
He bit his red lips in dissatisfaction, and Bai Chuchu grabbed his messy long hair in annoyance.
It seems that you can’t just do it, as it’s not possible to work behind closed doors like this!
She put away her last pair of medicinal materials, sorted out her appearance, and brought those defective elixirs to Wanxuefeng directly with her sword.
Bai Chuchu knew that she was not the one who made the alchemy, and she didn't plan to hold on. She asked her senior brother Ye Feng for help very consciously.
"Senior Brother! It's so good that you are here. Chuchu comes to ask you if you have something to do!"
From a distance, I saw Ye Feng practicing sword in the snow-capped forest in front of the cave. Bai Chuchu was overjoyed and shouted loudly.
Ye Feng swung his right hand and then flipped his sword back to the sheath.
"What's the matter?" He smiled and looked at Bai Chuchu with a doting heart.
Bai Chuchu grinned and felt a little embarrassed, "I have been learning to refine elixirs recently. According to the elixir recipe, there is no mistake. But I don't know why, but I just can't practice it... I have already practiced nine pieces of raw materials!"
As she said, she took out the defective products she had practiced and showed them to Ye Feng.
After taking the jade bottle from Bai Chuchu's hand, Ye Feng looked carefully for a while and smiled and said, "Little Junior Sister, have you not divided the order of medicinal materials and practiced them together?"
Bai Chuchu was shocked, "Yes, senior brother, how did you know?"
"These pills are very dim and turbid, and the smell is messy, without any clear feeling or fragrance of the bone-blooded blood pill. I guess they were made by mixing them in one go when refining."
"But you can't blame you. Generally, pill recipes rarely say in detail. Although this bone-blood-blood-thawing pill is not very advanced, it is also very rare and difficult to grasp when refining."
Ye Feng smiled very elegantly and slowly explained to Bai Chuchu's confusion: "There are resistance between medicinal materials. Only by seizing the opportunity and adding another medicinal material when each medicinal material is just right can the medicinal properties be better played. The order and timing of the addition are actually indecisive, which depends on your personal understanding and your grasp of alchemy."
"Even if the pill recipe is fixed to a certain extent, in practice, the alchemist still requires the alchemist to make some flexible changes based on the specific situation, rather than copying it hard. Otherwise, the elixirs refined will be defective."
"So that's it! No wonder I tried it many times, but it didn't succeed once!"
Bai Chuchu was quite helpless. It seemed that books like "The Way of Elixirs" should be tailor-made for top students like the senior brother. If a poor student like himself is not interpreted in detail, he will not be able to appreciate the essence of it at all!
But the master only explained that she could comprehend the martial arts and magic techniques in the wooden house at will, and did not say whether it could be spread. It was not easy to be clear, so she took them out and asked the senior brother...
It seems that some people will explore in the future!
"Haha, the little junior sister doesn't need to be depressed. You can completely refine it without anyone's guidance for the first time. Although it is only a first-grade grade, it has reached the level and is already very talented."
Ye Feng smiled gently, and when he saw Bai Chuchu's face turned gray, he looked dejected, and comforted him very understandingly.
