Chapter 267 Sister, please help me

Qin Shu thought that with her current foundation-building skills, it would not be difficult to refine a second-grade water-avoiding elixir, but when she actually put it into practice, she found that it was not that simple at all.

Although the water-avoiding elixir is said to avoid water, one must have a certain understanding of the spiritual power of water. Alchemists generally have fire and wood spiritual roots, and very few have water spiritual roots.

They are instinctively repelled by water spiritual power, so there are not many water-avoiding pills on the market.

Of course, Qin Shu's first batch of elixirs ended in failure. She looked down at her hands. Her fingers were slender, and her knuckles had thin calluses from sword practice.

She thought too simply. The function of the water-avoiding pill is that after taking the pill, people or monsters can walk freely underwater, just like on land.

Water-avoiding elixir can extract oxygen from water to supply the needs of human body.

Of course, there is no such thing as oxygen in the world of immortality. This shows how amazingly talented the senior who invented this elixir was.

Oxygen has the effect of supporting combustion, so when refining the elixir, it is easy to overheat it and eventually become a useless elixir.

Qin Shu's original fire spirit energy was extremely hot. Wouldn't it be useless if she practiced this way?

She opened the lid of the alchemy furnace, looked at the darkness inside, and sighed helplessly.

Fortunately, the alchemy furnace given by Master was pretty good, otherwise I'm afraid the furnace would still explode.

She performed a cleaning technique to clean the alchemy furnace, then took out another batch of medicinal materials and refined it again.

This time she was very careful and only put in a little fire spirit energy, and the rest was replaced by the earth fire in the alchemy room.

However, this time she failed.

Qin Shu summed up her experience and tried harder, but failed five times in a row.

She helplessly scratched her three centimeters of broken hair, sighed, and resignedly took out the jade slip to find foreign aid.

Her finger stopped on Akabane's name, and she quickly crossed it after thinking for a moment.

The little senior sister's flames are probably more powerful than hers, so asking her can't help, so let's forget it.

Finally, her eyes stopped on He Xin's name and she smiled happily.

Yes, she still has to find her plastic sisters at this time.

"Sister, can you help me?"

He Xin replied quickly, "If you have anything to say, just say it and don't disturb my practice."

Qin Shu quickly replied: "How many furnaces of elixirs can you help me make? I will provide the medicinal materials and you will make them."

He Xin: [? 】

"Sister, is there nothing wrong with you? You've already built your foundation! Are you asking me, a little loser with a fifth-level Qi training, to help you make elixirs? That's not the joke, right?"

"No, I can't practice this elixir. After thinking about it, I can only find you."

"What elixir?"

"Water-avoiding elixir."

…

He Xin did not reject Qin Shu after all. She went all the way to the alchemy room and found the alchemy room where Qin Shu was.

When Qin Shu saw He Xin coming, she immediately stood up from the futon, jumped in front of her, and pulled her towards the pill furnace.

"Help, sister, I can only find you."

Seeing a jar on the ground, He Xin took a look and saw that it was full of black waste pills.

She was a little funny, "Shu Shu, it turns out you are not good at something?"

Qin Shu shrugged, "I'm not good at many things. If I hadn't been able to buy water-avoiding pills, I would never have practiced it myself."

When He Xin heard what she said, he also sighed, "What if I can't do it too?"

Qin Shu said nonchalantly: "Let's try it. If it doesn't work, I'll think of other ways."

After saying this, she bowed her hands to He Xin in a flattering manner, "Excuse me for a trip, good sister, and I will make it up to you."

After hearing what she said, He Xin's bright eyes were filled with a smile, and she heard her say: "How to compensate?"

The curve of Qin Shu's lips became deeper, "I'll buy you more chicken butts."

He Xin's smile faded and she stood up to leave, "You want to bribe me with just a little bit of chicken butt!"

Qin Shu grabbed her with quick eyes and hands, "I'll help you buy the robe you were interested in last time!"

"Deal." He Xin said with a triumphant look on his face, "Shu, you said this yourself."

Qin Shu nodded honestly, "Hurry up and try it. Whether it succeeds or not, I will buy you the robes."

She was given a black card by her second senior brother, and an ordinary robe was really nothing.

He Xin sat down cross-legged, straightened her robes, and then looked at Qin Shu, "Where are the herbs?"

Qin Shu turned her hand, and a herbal medicine appeared in her hand.

"It's all here."

"What should I do? I have never practiced water-avoiding elixirs, and I have only practiced wind-moving elixirs for second-grade elixirs. The success rate of elixirs is not very satisfactory. Please be mentally prepared."

He Xin knew that Qin Shu was very powerful. She usually pursued perfect alchemy, which had become a benchmark in their alchemy sect.

He Xin was worried that the elixir he had concocted was not very satisfactory. Rather than Qin Shu being disappointed when the time came, it would be better to say hello to her in advance.

Qin Shu nodded, "Don't talk about the rate of successful elixirs, even if they are all useless elixirs, it doesn't matter."

As she spoke, she raised her chin towards the jar not far away, "Look how useless I am."

When she said this, He Xin no longer had any psychological burden.

Qin Shu took out her own experience and told He Xin everything that could be used.

He Xin also listened very seriously. Qin Shu always had her own unique opinions on alchemy. She benefited a lot from just listening to a few sentences. It was not like them who were just copying cats and tigers when refining alchemy.

It was also the first time for Qin Shu to see He Xin making pills. As soon as He Xin started to input spiritual energy, Qin Shu's brows furrowed.

But she didn't say anything, just quietly waiting for He Xin to waste a furnace of pills.

Seeing her frustrated look, Qin Shu said, "You input too much spiritual energy at the beginning. Alchemy is a continuous process and cannot be completed overnight. If you input too much spiritual energy at the beginning, you will not have enough stamina. When the fusion is completed, the degree of refining of each part is uneven, and the pill will be wasted."

He Xin nodded in agreement, "That makes sense."

Qin Shu laughed and continued, "Before you start to make pills, you have to use spiritual energy to turn around in the alchemy furnace. This is called a hot furnace. This can ensure that the medicinal materials are heated more evenly in the alchemy furnace. Do you understand?"

He Xin understood. In the past, she had been thinking about alchemy by herself. Before, a senior sister in the Transmission Hall had talked about it, but she didn't explain it in such detail. Or maybe... even the senior sister didn't know this.

Later, she entered the inner gate, still in a free-range rhythm, she had never even seen her master, let alone told her about this.

"I'll try again."

This time, He Xin's input of spiritual energy was much more stable than the first time. She only had two spiritual roots of fire and wood, and would not be affected by other mixed spiritual energy. At the same time, her spiritual root value was not very high, and the heat of the flame was limited, so she didn't need to work hard to grasp the balance of the elements like Qin Shu.
