Chapter 26 Xiaoyaozi

Shi Yue's face was moved after hearing this. Alchemist is the most popular and expensive profession among the four major professions.

If he becomes an alchemist, he can indeed plant spiritual medicines and make pills in the mysterious space.

However, Shi Yue does not want to give the other party spiritual stones. If the other party absorbs enough spiritual energy and breaks the seal, he will definitely be unlucky.

Shi Yue's eyes turned, his eyes lit up, and he said: "I gave you seven or eight hundred spiritual stones last time. If you want me to continue to give you spiritual stones, you should pay off the previous debt first! After helping me a hundred or eighty times, I will give you spiritual stones again, how about it?"

"What? Help you a hundred or eighty times for free? Am I that cheap? Humph, just once, forget it if you don't accept it." The man said angrily.

"Once is too little, ten times." Shi Yue bargained.

"No, at most twice."

"Hmph, five times, forget it if you don't agree, anyway, it's you who begged me, not me begging you, even if I stay in the Qi Refining Stage for my whole life, I will bury you deep underground before I die." Shi Yue snorted and threatened.

Shi Yue's answer was silence.

After a while, the man's voice sounded again: "Okay, five times is five times, I can help you five times for free, after five times, if you don't have spirit stones, don't think I will help you."

"Deal." Shi Yue heard this and his face was happy.

Although the two reached an agreement, Shi Yue did not dare to enter the mysterious space. He was worried that this was a trap set by the other party, the purpose was to let him relax his vigilance and take over his body while he entered the mysterious space. Before he was sure, Shi Yue would not easily enter the mysterious space.

You must be on guard against others, but you must not have the intention to harm others.

"By the way, after chatting for so long, I still don't know your name." Shi Yue's expression moved and he asked.

"You can call me Xiaoyaozi!"

"Senior Xiaoyaozi, can you tell me the origin of this bead?" Shi Yue asked with some curiosity.

"Yes, but in this way, I will help you once." Xiaoyaozi's tone was very calm.

After hearing this, Shi Yue hesitated for a moment and agreed.

"This bead is called the Heavenly Bead. As for its function, I think you should know that the passage of time is more than ten times that of the outside world, and the concentration of spiritual energy is also higher than that of the outside world. The internal space of the Heavenly Bead will increase as the holder's cultivation level increases, and eventually evolve into a world. Of course, if I devour a certain number of spiritual stones, the internal space of the Heavenly Bead will also increase.

"That means, if I advance to the fifth level of Qi Refining, the internal space will increase and the spiritual energy will be more abundant?" Shi Yue thought for a moment and said so.

"If you answer this question, I will help you three more times."

"Three times is three times. "Shi Yue no longer insisted.

"No, unless you advance to a higher realm, the internal space will not increase at all, and the spiritual energy will not change. Of course, if I devour a certain number of spiritual stones, the space inside the Palm of Heaven will increase, and the spiritual energy will be more abundant." Xiaoyaozi's voice was always flat.

"Why did the internal space of the Palm of Heaven increase after I advanced to the fourth level of Qi training? The spiritual energy is also richer than before?" Shi Yue asked in confusion.

"There are still three times, are you sure I want to help you again?"

"Forget it, you don't have to answer." After hearing this, Shi Yue thought for a while, and shook his head to refuse.

This Xiaoyaozi is really cunning, and every time you answer his question, it counts as helping him once.

"I want to learn how to refine the Bigu Pill now, can you guide me? "Shi Yue pondered for a moment and asked.

There are a lot of materials for refining the Bigu Pill in his storage bag. There is no work for planting at the moment, so learning to refine the pill is a good choice.

"Of course, but in this way, I can help you twice for free."

"No problem. Twice is twice." Shi Yue agreed without hesitation. Anyway, he would not enter the mysterious space, and it was good that Xiaoyaozi was willing to guide him to refine the Bigu Pill.

Although he had successfully refined the Bigu Pill before, the success rate was too low. If there were experienced people to guide him, the result would definitely be different.

Thinking about this, Shi Yue walked out of the yard and flew to Danxia Peak.

After arriving at Danxia Peak, Shi Yue spent two spirit stones and rented an alchemy room.

After closing the door, he took out the three materials for refining the Bigu Pill.

"Senior Xiaoyaozi, I have failed many times in refining the Bigu Pill. I don't know if there is any way to reduce the number of failures. "Shi Yue asked straight to the point, his tone was very sincere.

"There is no shortcut in the path of alchemy. If you want to improve the success rate of alchemy, you can only practice more. Don't worry about me. Just do what you should do. I will remind you when I need to." Xiaoyaozi said word by word.

After hearing this, Shi Yue said nothing more. He peeled off the husk of the rice, washed it, cut the spiritual rice into small pieces with a dagger, and ground it into powder. Then, he took out a blood fruit and a purple apricot, washed them, cut off the pulp, and poured it into the spiritual rice powder.

Then, he cast six spells on the six dragon heads, and each dragon head sprayed a finger-thick red flame from it, which gathered at the bottom of the yellow alchemy furnace and slowly preheated.

After half a quarter of an hour, the yellow furnace was already hot, emitting blazing heat.

He felt that the temperature was about right, and was about to throw the materials in. At this moment, Xiaoyaozi's voice suddenly sounded:

"Wait, didn't anyone tell you that when refining the Bigu Pill, the preheating time should be a quarter of an hour? You threw the materials in so quickly, the temperature is not high enough, and the essence in the materials cannot be refined, which will affect the pill."

Shi Yue was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he took note and continued to preheat.

After more than half a quarter of an hour, Shi Yue threw the materials in.

As time passed, a faint fragrance floated out of the furnace.

When Shi Yue smelled this smell, his face was happy, and his face was solemn. He did not dare to be careless at all. He had mostly failed at this stage before.

After a quarter of an hour, the medicinal fragrance in the alchemy room became stronger and stronger, and Shi Yue's face turned pale and sweaty.

At this moment, Xiaoyaozi's voice suddenly sounded:

"Okay, you can remove the flames. If you continue, I'm afraid the pills will get mushy."

After hearing this, Shi Yue didn't understand, but he still put away the spell obediently.

He shook his sleeves and the lid of the furnace opened.

He walked in and saw thirteen yellow pills the size of longan in the furnace.

"What's going on? The alchemy book clearly said that it would take a while longer?" Shi Yue looked at the bigu pill in the furnace with a look of joy on his face. He then remembered something and asked.

"Different alchemists have different ways of refining different kinds of pills. You are only at the fourth level of Qi Refining now, and your mana is limited. If you preheat the furnace for a while before refining the pill, you can get the pill out earlier when the pill is formed. If you don't preheat the furnace enough in the early stage, you may not be able to control the size of the flame when the pill is formed, resulting in failure in refining. If I'm not mistaken, you should have failed when you were refining the pill before." Xiaoyaozi's voice was neither hurried nor slow.

"That's true." Shi Yue thought about it carefully and found that what Xiaoyaozi said was very accurate. Every time he refined the pill, the pill was burnt. He also knew that it was caused by the large flame, but he just found a solution. Unexpectedly, Xiaoyaozi pointed out this fatal flaw when he first guided him to make pills. It seems that Xiaoyaozi is very familiar with alchemy.

"Senior is an alchemist?" Shi Yue asked curiously.

"I can't call myself an alchemist, but I'll learn it if I watch others make pills. Okay, take a break and start refining the second batch! You have to make sure you have enough mana when refining pills." Xiaoyaozi suggested.

Shi Yue nodded, meditated and adjusted his breathing, and after his mana recovered, he started refining the second batch...
