People in Doupo: The beginning of the game intercepts the rich woman Xun'er

Chapter 15 Refining Medicine
Xiao Ling followed Elder Huo and walked into the alchemy room after a while.

As he walked in, Xiao Ling felt a warm current rushing through his body, just like he had walked into the drying room in his previous life. Fortunately, he has become a fighter now. After circulating his fighting spirit a little, the feeling of heat faded away for the most part. Moreover, the fire attribute has become more active here. If he practices here, he should be able to make faster progress than usual.

Looking towards the center of the room, you can see a medicine cauldron nearly half a meter long placed there.

The whole body of the medicine cauldron is brown with some red stripes. At the bottom of the medicine cauldron, there are two ferocious wolf heads carved with wide-open wolf mouths, forming three interconnected fire holes. The holes are curved and continuous, and the deeper they go, the smaller the diameter is. It seems to contain mysteries. At the top of the medicine cauldron, a giant snake is coiled into the dark red lid of the cauldron. There is a special hole in the lid, which is the place for putting in medicinal materials. The surface of the medicine cauldron is painted with beautiful carvings of monsters, which are lifelike and look like living things.

"The Alchemy Room is a place where the Alchemy Department specializes in refining medicine. The medicine cauldrons inside are the same as the one I gave you. They are all three-mouthed cauldrons."

Elder Huo walked to the medicine cauldron and waved his hand, and a pile of medicinal herbs appeared next to it. "Watch carefully, I will only demonstrate it once."

The next step was also the first time that Xiao Ling saw the process of a pharmacist refining medicine. The dark flame entered the medicine cauldron, and the herbs were devoured by the flames one by one, leaving behind the essence of the medicine in powder or paste. Finally, the essences of various medicinal materials merged into a rough-surfaced pill. As the flames quenched, the pill in the cauldron became round and green, and a faint medicinal fragrance spread from the cauldron.

Originally, alchemists needed a quiet environment to make medicine, without any disturbance. But because it was a first-grade pill, it was very easy for Elder Huo, so Elder Huo explained every step in detail. The pill was soon made, and Elder Huo used his fighting spirit to grab the pill in his hand, then put it in a jade bottle and threw it to Xiao Ling.

With a slight push of the suction palm, the jade screen fell steadily into his hand. Before Xiao Ling could put it into his belt, Elder Huo said, "This is a first-grade elixir, the Fire Condensation Pill, which can slightly improve the cultivation of fire attribute fighting spirit. There is a pill recipe in the ring. You can practice with this kind of pill yourself. I just demonstrated it once, and now you can also refine it once." After saying that, he stepped aside and made room.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Ling first emptied his mind so that he had no distracting thoughts.

Place your hand on the fire opening of the medicine cauldron and inject the beast fire into it.

"puff"

With a muffled sound, blue-pink beast fire appeared in the medicine cauldron, constantly churning and burning.

Xiao Ling closed his eyes and began to sense the wood-attributed Dou Qi in his body. Ever since he absorbed the trunk bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, Xiao Ling's affinity for the wood attribute had greatly increased. It only took him a minute to lock onto that green Dou Qi.

Xiao Ling stretched out a finger and lightly tapped the other fire mouth. A green airflow as thick as a thumb was slowly poured in.

As soon as the green airflow entered the medicine cauldron, the blue-pink beast fire inside suddenly quieted down as if a chemical reaction had occurred. At this time, even if Xiao Ling had not yet controlled the beast fire, he could sense that the violent factor in the beast fire had been neutralized by the power of wood. Moreover, due to the principle of wood generating fire, the flame at this time was obviously more durable and controllable than before.

After recalling the medicinal materials needed for the Fire Condensing Pill and Elder Fire's refining techniques in his mind.

The soul perception invaded the medicine cauldron and began to control the beast fire. Thanks to the excellent soul perception and the neutralization of the wood attribute fighting spirit, Xiao Ling seemed to be able to control the beast fire with ease.

Put the required medicinal materials into the medicine cauldron step by step, extract and purify the medicinal materials, integrate the essence of various medicinal materials into one to form the prototype of the elixir, and continue to temper it with flames.

Following Elder Huo's instructions, Xiao Ling carefully completed each request.

After seven failures, he finally refined his first pill in his life on the eighth time. Although it was bumpy on the outside, it made Xiao Ling smile. He took out a special jade bottle, activated his suction palm to put the pill into the bottle, and put it into his belt. Xiao Ling had planned to keep this pill well for the first time.

Elder Huo on the side was quite satisfied and smiled like an old father.

Facts have proved that Xiao Ling not only has an extraordinary talent for cultivation, but also has an excellent talent for alchemy.

Elder Huo said, "Although the appearance of the pill is not good and the surface is bumpy, it is very rare to be able to complete the breakthrough from zero to one in such a short time. I have to admit that you are much better than I was back then."

Xiao Ling felt a little playful when he heard this, so he asked, "How long did it take you to refine the elixir for the first time?"

Elder Huo’s smile gradually disappeared, his face darkened, and he rolled his eyes.

I originally thought he was an honest child, but I didn't expect him to be so sinister. It turns out that there was a day when I was wrong about him.

After clearing his throat, Elder Huo changed the subject and said, "Although you have already refined a first-grade pill, it does not mean that you have become a true first-grade alchemist. There was a bit of luck involved in the refining process just now."

"To become a true high-level alchemist, you must also ensure the quality and success rate of the pills. Remember to practice diligently and never slack off!"

As for Xiao Ling, Elder Huo still hopes that he can be down-to-earth and not be proud and complacent because of a little achievement. After all, he is half of his apprentice, and he definitely hopes that Xiao Ling can go further and further in alchemy.

In all these years at Canaan Academy, he had seen too many geniuses. Although there had never been a genius like Xiao Ling, there were countless geniuses who were one level lower than him.

He has seen many people who, because of arrogance, refuse to listen to advice, waste their talent in cultivation, and are completely unable to realize their original potential after growing up.

"Understood. I will practice harder in the future."

Xiao Ling quickly agreed to Elder Huo's earnest admonition. He also knew that he should not be complacent with small achievements. Moreover, Xiao Ling knew that there was a demon girl named Cao Ying from the Cao family in Zhongzhou who could make pills at the age of seven. Xiao Ling really didn't think that his talent in making pills was better than that of Cao Ying and Dan Chen.

Seeing that Xiao Ling really listened to his teachings, Elder Huo nodded with satisfaction, stroked his beard, and waved his right hand. A large pile of medicinal herbs appeared next to the medicine cauldron.

"These are the herbs prepared for you to practice. If you run out of them in the future, go to the warehouse and tell them my name. They will give you the herbs."

Seeing this, Xiao Ling quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Elder."

Elder Huo smiled and stroked his beard, saying only: "Continue to practice well!" before leaving the alchemy room.
