Chapter 10 Bigu Pill Success
Wang Hao sat cross-legged on the futon, first concentrated his energy and calmed his mind, and then pinched the spell with both hands to ignite the spiritual carbon. The spiritual carbon immediately shined brightly, and a red flame as thick as a finger jumped up. This was very useful for alchemy.
Obviously it was not enough, so Wang Hao took out five more pieces of spiritual carbon and put them in, and six red flames finally condensed together at the bottom of the alchemy furnace.
I have said before that the process of elixir refining is not complicated, but there are not many people who can actually refine elixirs. After all, successfully refining elixirs will test the alchemist's skills in all aspects such as material preparation, temperature control, and release time.
ability.
Among them, temperature control eliminated most of the monks except Huo Linggen. Of course, individual talents who defied the heavens were not excluded.
Learning alchemy requires a large amount of spiritual stones, and only wealthy immortal cultivators can afford the spiritual stones required to learn alchemy.
The huge Wang family enjoys one-fifth of the income of Qingniufang, but they have only trained four alchemists?
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Wang Hao continued to make the elixir. The first step was to clean the spiritual rice and then peel it one by one! This is very simple. The second step was to put the peeled spiritual rice into the pot. Oh no, make the elixir.
In the furnace, use slow fire to slowly extract the essence. This step is not difficult!
Then Wang Hao discovered that the pot was sticky...
"Is this your first time? It's normal for you to be unskilled," Wang Hao comforted himself.
After reducing the amount of spiritual carbon and lowering the heat, Wang Hao continued, and then it became scorched again...
“Emmm, it’s really a bit challenging!”
After reducing the heat a little, Wang Hao once again put the processed spiritual rice into the alchemy furnace. This time, there was finally no burnt smell. Wang Hao looked happy, made a hand seal with one hand, pointed at the alchemy furnace, and closed the cauldron.
Then it flew up and closed steadily.
Although it was blocked by a lid, the spiritual consciousness of the cultivator was not blocked, and Wang Hao could still observe the situation inside. He saw that the spiritual rice gradually melted under the high temperature, forming a thick white juice.
As time goes by, the water in the juice slowly evaporates, leaving only the essence, and a faint aroma wafts out of the alchemy furnace.
"This first stage is complete. According to Lao Wang's notes, the next step is to increase the heat and rotate the essence into groups to evaporate the remaining water and turn it into a pill!"
Wang Hao's technique changed, and the flames on the spiritual carbon suddenly more than doubled in size, and the billowing flames flooded the alchemy furnace.
As time goes by, the aroma becomes stronger and stronger! Wang Hao feels that he is not far from success!
As a result, a quarter of an hour later, the alchemy furnace shook violently, a muffled sound was heard, and then thick yellow smoke rose...
"Is this a furnace explosion?" Wang Hao was speechless for a moment, then he brought the alchemy furnace in front of his eyes and observed it carefully. He saw that the whole alchemy furnace was in a mess, with a lot of dark brown stickiness sticking around it and exuding a smell.
Burnt taste.
Wang Hao sighed, "Is it so difficult?" He shook his head and began to carefully recall the steps of alchemy. They were all strictly according to Lao Wang's records, but Lao Wang only said what the state should be like.
It's an abstraction, Wang Hao thought. It would be great if there were specific data. How many degrees and how much time would it take to refine the elixir in minutes?
There is no way, these immortal cultivators obviously do not have this concept. The experience of the predecessors is only used as a reference. Whether it can work or not depends entirely on the operator's understanding!
Wang Hao obviously doesn't think he is a genius, so he should practice more.
Continue to cleanse the spiritual rice and control the heat to condense the essence!
There was no explosion this time, but the temperature was still high. When Wang Hao opened the alchemy furnace, he saw nothing but darkness!
The fifth time, due to insufficient temperature, there was no elixir, and there were only three soft yellow mud-like objects!
The sixth time, the elixir was finally made, but the heat was too much and the elixir smelled so burnt that it was impossible to eat it!
Wang Hao sighed and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Let's stop here today. Although we haven't succeeded, we are not far away!"
At this moment, his mana was exhausted and it was impossible to continue. However, Wang Hao still accumulated a lot of experience during this afternoon's practice.
For example, the condensing liquid in the first step is already very familiar. Since Bigu Dan has only one ingredient, the mixing of the liquid in the second step is omitted.
He has roughly mastered the required fire temperature range after four failures in the step of making the pill. He can't guarantee that he will make the pill next time, but if he gives it three or four times, he will definitely succeed once!
Wang Hao was not depressed, just like when the starship failed dozens of times, he would always say: "At least we got the data!".
Wang Hao dragged his tired body to eat in a hurry, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Since he came to this world, he has been practicing hard and resting for two or three hours at most every day, but this time, he slept for a full night.
During this period, he also had a dream. He dreamed that he had succeeded in building the foundation and had achieved great success in alchemy. There was a long line of people at the door requesting him to make alchemy...
On the second day, Wang Hao did not continue to try to make alchemy. Firstly, he had not fully digested yesterday's harvest. He still needed to review it a few times to get some useful data for use in the next time he made alchemy. Secondly, he wanted to improve his cultivation level.
It is still his main goal and cannot be reversed. The third is that he consumed a lot of spiritual rice yesterday and still needs to leave some for practical use. Alchemy must wait for at least ten days for a new batch of spiritual rice to mature!
Just like that, another ten days of boring practice life passed!
On this day, Wang Hao finished his meditation. He got up and observed the farm first. He found that the golden apricots had become three seedlings, and the spiritual rice next to them was in a mature state. After clicking on harvest, Wang Hao tried to make alchemy for the second time!
During these ten days, Wang Hao also took some time to recall his alchemy experience several times and viewed the recorded videos on the computer. Combined with Lao Wang's notes and experience, he benefited a lot.
This time, he was very confident of refining the Bigu Pill.
After gathering his energy and meditating, Wang Hao sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, breathed out a breath of turbid air, and began to refine the elixir.
Use both hands to ignite the spiritual carbon, preheat the alchemy furnace, then clean the spiritual rice, peel off the skin and remove impurities, and start refining!
From time to time, the mana output is reduced or increased to control the heat. For a moment, the aroma of the spiritual rice comes out. At this time, the essence of the spiritual rice has been extracted.
Wang Hao did this step proficiently last time, and after reviewing it several times, this step is considered easy! The key lies in the next step of condensing the pill!
Wang Hao smelled the strong aroma and did not dare to be careless. His expression was very solemn. While activating the flame to increase the temperature in the elixir furnace, he also controlled the liquid medicine to pile up and rotate. This rotation is the key to forming the elixir, otherwise it will only become
A pile of mud, although it still has medicinal properties, is not easy to preserve.
Half a quarter of an hour later, there was a "bang" and a burning smell floated out of the alchemy furnace.
"Failed again?"
However, Wang Hao was not discouraged, he just chuckled and continued to make alchemy!
Two hours later, Wang Hao finished the fourth furnace of elixirs. This was the critical moment for the fifth furnace.
Wang Hao's face was pale, obviously due to excessive consumption of mana, but his eyes were firm and he was still staring at the alchemy furnace.
He didn't believe it. Old Demon Han was able to refine it, why couldn't he, Wang Hao?
Half a quarter of an hour later, Wang Hao withdrew his magic skills, and the flames surrounding the alchemy furnace suddenly dissipated and disappeared.
With a flick of his wrist, the cauldron lid flew up and fell firmly to the side.
Chapter completed!
