Family Immortal Cultivation: Li Clan
Chapter 100: Refining the Bigu Pill, First-level Alchemist
"Daoyou, come and give it a try!"
"Okay!"
Li Changsheng was eager to try after hearing this. With a flash of purple light, the purple gold tripod fell to the ground.
The purple gold tripod was used by Li Changsheng to refine tools. He was familiar with it and it was just right for refining pills.
Li Changsheng first wiped the inner wall of the purple gold tripod clean, opened his mouth and spit out the dry Yang true fire. The raging fire soon wrapped the purple gold tripod. Upon closer inspection, there was a ray of green in the golden flame.
Wang Qinian couldn't help but feel envious when he saw this scene. He had heard that Li Changsheng had a kind of life true fire, and now it was the first time he saw it.
Only when a cultivator enters the golden elixir stage can he produce elixir fire in his body. Li Changsheng mastered a kind of fire in the foundation building stage, which was very convenient for both refining pills and refining tools. He really envied him.
Not long after, he felt that the preheating was almost done, and began to put alchemy materials into the tripod one after another.
There are three kinds of materials for refining the bigu pill, the inner elixir and blood essence of the first-level clam spirit, and the three-year-old ginkgo fruit.
Wang Qinian watched from the side. Under Li Changsheng's spiritual awareness, the medicinal materials in the cauldron had completely liquefied and merged together like dewdrops. He immediately divided the elixir into three parts.
At this moment, it has come to the most critical step, that is, condensing the elixir. If it is too early, the elixir has not yet taken shape, and the medicinal power of the condensed elixir will be greatly reduced. If it is too late, it may directly become a waste elixir, so the time in between must be controlled by Li Changsheng himself.
Li Changsheng made seals with both hands, and a series of mysterious spells were continuously injected into the purple gold cauldron. His eyes widened and he shouted softly.
"Condensation!"
He quickly extinguished the dry Yang true fire and opened the lid of the cauldron. A pungent smell of burning came out. Looking closely, he saw three groups of charred residues in the cauldron, and some medicinal liquid could still be seen in one of them.
"Daoyou, this...?"
Li Changsheng looked at Wang Qinian. He remembered that the steps were all correct, but he didn't know why he failed.
"Daoyou Li, you are too impatient!"
"Please teach me!"
Wang Qinian nodded, then pointed to the three pieces of residue in the cauldron and said, "You condensed three pills for the first time, which greatly divided your mind. Instead of doing this, you should concentrate on condensing one pill and then improve the success rate after success. If you didn't have your life's true fire, the furnace would have exploded long ago."
Wang Qinian saw that Li Changsheng condensed three pills for the first time, and knew that he was a little impatient. The changes inside the furnace depended on the alchemist alone, but his life's true fire moved at will without consuming too much consciousness. If it were someone else, he would not only have to pay attention to the situation inside the furnace, but also pay attention to the temperature of the ground fire outside, and he would have been in a mess long ago.
Li Changsheng also accepted the words humbly. He thought that there was no difference between condensing one and three pills, but he didn't expect to fail.
At this time, Wang Qinian continued, "In fact, there is one last step that caused you to fail, that is, you did not contain the elixir. If I did the same as you did, I would not succeed."
"Contain the elixir?"
Wang Qinian explained, "After extinguishing the flame, you need to wait for the elixir furnace to cool down automatically. This period of time is the process of condensing the elixir. Using the residual heat of the elixir furnace to nourish the elixir will help increase the success rate of condensing the elixir."
"After you extinguished the flame, you couldn't wait to open the lid of the cauldron. The uneven heating in the cauldron can easily cause the condensed elixir to crack. No matter what, you can't succeed."
Li Changsheng suddenly realized what he said. He carefully recalled Wang Qinian's elixir refining process. He did wait until the elixir furnace cooled down before opening the lid.
"Fellow Daoist, I'm sorry!"
Li Changsheng was a little embarrassed.
"It's nothing, you're just a little impatient. If you condense multiple pills, the pill liquid will be separated. You need to ensure that the medicinal properties of each pill are the same, which requires a great consumption of spiritual consciousness and the failure rate is too high. Since you are refining for the first time, I still suggest you condense one pill, and then slowly increase the pill condensation rate after the success rate is up."
"No matter what you do, it is from simple to difficult. After all, you can't eat a fat man in one bite, right?"
Wang Qinian looked at Li Changsheng and said seriously.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, I have learned from you!"
Li Changsheng bowed to Wang Qinian with a sincere look. He thought that refining pills and refining tools were the same, and they were similar. He couldn't help but feel a little arrogant, but he didn't want to be laughed at.
"Daoyou, continue!"
Li Changsheng nodded, carefully recalled the refining process just now, and then started the second refining. Although the refining was successful this time, the medicinal properties were greatly reduced because the pill condensation time was a little early. The pill he refined could only last for ten days, which could have lasted for a month.
But Li Changsheng was very happy. Although it was not so perfect, it was a great improvement for him.
A month passed quickly. Under Wang Qinian's patient guidance, Li Changsheng started to refine one pill, then two, and then three. He was familiar with the process of refining pills, and his progress was obvious.
In the secret room, Li Changsheng sat on the futon, and a series of mysterious pill condensation techniques were injected into the cauldron, and then a strange fragrance floated out of the cauldron.
As soon as he thought about it, the dry Yang true fire under the purple gold cauldron was extinguished immediately, and then he began to wait.
Wang Qinian, who was standing by, nodded secretly when he saw this scene. He had seen Li Changsheng's progress in the past month. Not only was his cultivation strong, but he was also very hardworking. Apart from his cultivation, Li Changsheng was about the same age as his grandson, and he was very pleased.
After a quarter of an hour, the temperature of the purple gold tripod had cooled down. Li Changsheng waved his sleeves, and the tripod cover flew up automatically. Three thumb-sized yellow pills could be seen lying in the tripod.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, please taste it!"
Every time Li Changsheng refined a pill, he would give it to Wang Qinian for inspection.
"The color is bright, the shape is round, and the quality is good."
Wang Qinian held a Bigu Pill between his fingers and nodded repeatedly, obviously approving of the Bigu Pill refined by Li Changsheng.
He refined 55 Bigu Pills with 30 portions of medicinal materials, one in 10 furnaces, two in 15 furnaces, and three in 5 furnaces.
At his success rate, he would definitely lose money, but it was only a first-level medicinal material, which was nothing for the Li family. Now his success rate in refining Bigu Pills has stabilized at 30%, which means that he has officially entered the ranks of first-level lower-grade alchemists, which makes him happy.
At this time, Wang Qinian said: "Daoyou, since you have officially become a first-level lower-grade alchemist, it is time for me to retire. Now that you have mastered the essence of alchemy, as long as you continue to refine the remaining pills, you will sooner or later reach the level of a second-level upper-grade alchemist."
"Daoyou, I will remember your kindness in my heart!"
Li Changsheng solemnly clasped his fists and bowed. If it were not for teaching him to refine pills, Wang Qinian should have left after Li Changhui and Wang Mengwen's marriage was over. Now that he has delayed him for more than a month, it is considered that Li Changsheng has done his best.
"I am already satisfied to have Daoyou say this."
Li Changsheng sent Wang Qinian all the way to the outside of the mountain gate and then turned back.
"Alas! I hope my decision is right!"
Wang Qinian looked at Li Changsheng's back and sighed. His life span is not much, and investing in Li Changsheng is like paving a way out for the family!
