C45 First Time Concocting Pills
C45 First Time Concocting Pills
Yang Ying recalled the few types of medicinal pills he had chosen. This was his first time concocting a medicinal pill. He wanted to find a relatively simpler medicinal pill to concoct.
Yang Ying compared these medicinal pills and finally chose the Earth Core Pill. Earth Core Pill: Provides pure Spirit energy. It can speed up cultivation, and can be used by Foundation Stage cultivators.
Yang Ying calmed his heart, and no longer hesitated. He took out the alchemy furnace from the Storage Bag, and placed it on the empty space in the small room.
After that, he took out a few medicinal ingredients to refine the Earth Core Pill. These medicinal herbs had already been processed by someone. It should be Wang Mingxuan who had found someone to help him process them.
Yang Ying secretly noted down this intention in his heart. As these medicinal herbs had all been processed, Yang Ying only used the unique method he had learned from the Chaos Pill Scripture to slightly process these medicinal herbs.
This was the first time he processed medicinal herbs. Each medicinal herb was processed differently, but when he received the medicinal herbs, he knew how to deal with these medicinal herbs.
Although Yang Ying's technique was slightly rusty, he only used less than seven minutes to finish processing these medicinal herbs. He placed these medicinal herbs by the side in order to use them.
After that, Yang Ying placed his hand on the Pill Furnace. Although Bi Yuan did not tell him the name of this Pill Furnace, he did mention how to use this Pill Furnace in the Jade Slip.
The Pill Furnace was divided into two levels. The lower level was the Compound Formation, and there was a flame sealed within it. When it was used, the Formation would be activated with the true essence, and the flame sealed within would be activated.
The upper layer of this Pill Furnace was the area where the medicinal ingredients were poured in and the pills were formed. He followed the method mentioned in the Jade Slip and checked the Formation. Only then did he realize that the Spirit Stone within the Formation was already very thin. He hurriedly added a medium grade Spirit Stone into the Formation.
The fire in the Pill Furnace had yet to extinguish. Although the consumption of the Spirit Stone was very small when the Pill Furnace was sealed, the flame of the Pill Furnace had not extinguished for thousands of years. He did not know what kind of Spirit Stone Bi Yuan had given the alchemy furnace back then.
He took out the Spirit Stone from the alchemy furnace and looked it up and down. However, he did not understand what kind of Spirit Stone it was, so he did not hesitate. He put the Spirit Stone into the Storage Bag, and when he had time in the future, he would find someone to ask.
Yang Ying inserted his true essence into the Pill Furnace. He activated the various wards of the Formation in sequence. When the last ward was activated, a flame rose from the bottom of the Pill Furnace.
He was very curious. He controlled the output of his true essence, and the flame also changed its size with Yang Ying's true essence. When the true essence was transferred to a critical point, the flame slowly turned from red to yellow.
Yang Ying continued to input the true essence. When he poured all of his energy into the true essence, the flame slowly turned white. The color of the flame should correspond with the temperature of the flame. Yang Ying remembered that he had learned this knowledge when he was in Huaxia. As the temperature increased, the flame would turn blue.
As for the current flame, it was only white. It should be because the grade of his true essence was not high enough. Perhaps it would be much better when he reached the Golden Core stage.
Yang Ying controlled the input of the true essence again, controlling the color of the flame to turn yellow. After that, he sensed the change in temperature. After a while, he took out a medicinal herb and threw it into the Pill Furnace.
As time passed, the medicinal herbs were thrown into the furnace. When the last herb was thrown into the furnace, Yang Ying started to use the true essence with all his strength.
At this moment, through the alchemy furnace, one could see that the impurities in the medicinal liquid were slowly extracted by Yang Ying using a special method. The medicinal liquid slowly became pure as the impurities were reduced.
When no impurities were extracted from the medicinal liquid, the medicinal liquid emitted a sparkling light.
Yang Ying seemed to be able to see the changes in the medicinal liquid. He changed the Hand Spell, and as the Hand Spell changed, the various essences within the medicinal liquid began to fuse under the influence of the true essence and the surrounding Spirit.
When the changes in the medicinal liquid slowed down until it stopped, Yang Ying's Hand Spell changed again, and he used the Pill Forming Hand Technique. As he used the Hand Spell, the medicinal liquid in the Pill Furnace slowly split into nine. Gradually, the nine medicinal liquids began to solidify.
Yang Ying opened the lid of the furnace and used the Pill Gathering Hand Technique. The nine solid medicinal pills shot out like lightning. Yang Ying quickly took out the medicinal bottles and put them into them.
Yang Ying wiped the sweat off his forehead and sighed. When he used the Pill Forming Hand Technique just now, he was distracted. Although he immediately came back to his senses, because he was distracted for a moment, the Pill Forming Hand Technique deviated slightly.
Besides, he clearly knew how to control the fire. However, when he was actually controlling it, he couldn't help but have problems.
Yang Ying opened the lid of the bottle, and a medicinal fragrance wafted into his nose. He poured out the medicinal pill from the bottle. As he had expected, three of them were low grade medicinal pills, and the remaining four were medium grade medicinal pills, and the other two were top grade medicinal pills.
After Yang Ying gained his first experience in alchemy, when he refined the Earth Core Pill again, he became more confident. In the following two batches, he obtained seven medium grade medicinal pills, two top grade medicinal pills, two medium grade medicinal pills, and seven top grade medicinal pills.
Yang Ying put the pills away and sat down, silently thinking about the problems that had occurred during these few batches of pills. After that, he activated the Formation once again, and flames rose.
He repeated the operation from before. As the changes in the medicinal liquid slowly came to a stop, Yang Ying was highly focused. The previous few times, this place was the place where it was the easiest for him to have problems.
The moment the changes in the medicinal liquid stopped, Yang Ying struck out the Pill Forming Hand Technique. As the Hand Spell was used, the medicinal liquid seemed to be attracted and divided into ten parts, flowing in different directions.
When the medicinal liquid had just solidified, Yang Ying opened the lid of the cauldron. He used the Pill Gathering Hand Technique, and the ten medicinal pills flew out. A medicinal fragrance assailed his nose, and it was much stronger than before. Yang Ying quickly kept them into the medicinal bottle.
When Yang Ying opened the medicinal bottle again to examine it, he discovered that there were ten medicinal pills in the medicinal bottle. There were five supreme grade medicinal pills, and the remaining five were top grade medicinal pills.
According to what he had learned from the Pill Dao's foundation and Pill Formula Records, a cauldron could at most produce ten pills.
More than a thousand years ago, before the Pill Dao declined, an alchemist grandmaster tried to refine a few cauldrons of Body Recovery Pill. It was a type of medicinal pill used in the Foundation Stage. As a result, when he was the most successful, he managed to concoct ten pills.
From then on, alchemists had tried and verified many times, but none of them had ever seen someone concoct more than ten pills at once. Therefore, there was a common understanding in the cultivation world: a cauldron could at most refine ten pills.
Ever since the Immortal vs. Devil Battle from a thousand years ago, the cultivation world of Yaen Country had lost a large amount of the inheritance of alchemy. It had been a long time since a supreme grade pill was born in the cultivation world.
