Chapter 21: First Alchemy
After returning to the room!
Ye Qingxuan activated the formation of the courtyard to prevent anyone from disturbing him again.
Although Ye Qingxuan learned a lot of information from the exchange with Su Daobin, it did not affect the path that Ye Qingxuan had already planned.
The disturbances in the outside world had nothing to do with him. He only needed to absorb some useful information and integrate it into the path he planned.
But he would not change his path because of others.
After all, you have to walk the road by yourself. You can only trust yourself. The experience of others can only be used for reference!
With his heart calmed down again, Ye Qingxuan took out the purchased alchemy furnace and began to refine.
After spending half a day to refine and control the alchemy furnace of the middle-grade magic weapon level, it was already late at night.
Ye Qingxuan did not rush to refine the elixir, but sat cross-legged and began to meditate to restore the consumed spiritual power and consciousness!
Until the early morning of the next day, Ye Qingxuan had adjusted his state to the peak after a night of breathing, and then he took out the alchemy furnace again to start refining the elixir.
The cultivation level of Qi Refining cultivators is too low to condense Dao Fire.
Therefore, for low-level cultivators like Ye Qingxuan to use, there is a fire seed at the bottom of the magic tool-level alchemy furnace, and the inner wall is also engraved with an auxiliary control array.
When using it, you only need to inject spiritual power to activate it, and you can stimulate the Dao Fire to assist in alchemy.
Ye Qingxuan took out a spiritual medicine for Qi-inducing Pill and placed it beside him, then urged spiritual power to activate the Dao Fire of the alchemy furnace, and finally used the fire control technique that he had just learned to control the Dao Fire slowly.
He did not rush to put the spiritual medicine in for refining, but used the fire control technique to slowly maintain the Dao Fire and warm up the alchemy furnace!
The method of refining Qi-inducing Pill has been memorized in Ye Qingxuan's mind, so although it was the first time to refine the pill, Ye Qingxuan's heart was still very calm!
When the alchemy furnace was almost warmed up, Ye Qingxuan took the spiritual medicine of Qi-inducing Pill into the alchemy furnace one by one with spiritual power.
At the same time, Ye Qingxuan's spiritual consciousness probed into the alchemy furnace to observe the whole process of the spiritual medicine melting.
Ordinary cultivators below the late stage of Qi Refining do not have spiritual consciousness, and can only rely on spiritual perception and experience to control the temperature when refining pills.
Therefore, cultivators below the late stage of Qi Refining cannot avoid making many mistakes, no matter how good their talent for refining pills is.
The early birth of spiritual consciousness is Ye Qingxuan's advantage, and it is also one of the reasons why Ye Qingxuan tried to refine pills so early.
The three spiritual medicines for refining Qi-inducing pills, Tianqinghua, Zilingcao, and Yinlinghua, have different heat resistances, so the order and time of putting them into the pill furnace are crucial.
After all, with Ye Qingxuan's current realm, it is impossible to make different areas in the pill furnace appear different temperatures in detail.
Under Ye Qingxuan's spiritual observation, the three spiritual medicines were slowly refined by the Dao fire, and the impurities were rejected one by one, leaving only the essence of the three spiritual medicines fluctuating in the Dao fire of the pill furnace.
Seeing this, Ye Qingxuan was delighted!
Seeing that the time was ripe, Ye Qingxuan did two things at once. While controlling the three spiritual medicine essences to slowly merge, he increased the supply of spiritual power, performed the fire control technique, and slowly raised the temperature of the Tao fire.
As time passed, the three spiritual medicine essences in the furnace began to interweave and merge, and the entire furnace began to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and infuse it into the spiritual medicine essences that were about to merge.
"It looks like it's almost done!"
Just when the Qi-inducing Pill was about to take shape, Ye Qingxuan thought it was about to be completed.
Unexpectedly, the Tao fire controlled by Ye Qingxuan jumped slightly, and the temperature in the furnace changed instantly.
The pill that was about to take shape was affected by the Tao fire, and the internal balance was suddenly broken, and the entire spiritual medicine essence began to riot.
Seeing this, Ye Qingxuan hurriedly increased the power of the fire control technique to try to save the situation.
But when Ye Qingxuan performed the fire control technique, he found that he could no longer control the Tao fire in the furnace.
Knowing that it was impossible to do anything, Ye Qingxuan stopped forcing it and watched the spiritual medicine essence being burned by the Tao fire indifferently.
Looking at the black smoke rising from the alchemy furnace, Ye Qingxuan was not discouraged, nor did he regret the loss of the spiritual medicine, but began to reflect on himself.
The failure of this alchemy was not caused by Ye Qingxuan's failure to fully control the refining process of the Qi-inducing Pill.
On the contrary, after this attempt, Ye Qingxuan knew that he had no problem with the refining process that he memorized and understood in his mind with his amazing comprehension!
The main reason for this failure was that he was too conceited.
He thought that with the divine consciousness born in advance and the extraordinary comprehension brought about by the transformation of the soul origin, he could easily refine the pill.
But Ye Qingxuan ignored his control over fire control and spiritual power!
Fire control is a spell in the alchemy inheritance. Ye Qingxuan only practiced it several times. After getting started with fire control, he hurried out to buy an alchemy furnace to prepare for alchemy.
And Ye Qingxuan's control over spiritual power was also very rough.
Ye Qingxuan spent five years in seclusion, and basically spent all his time meditating to improve his cultivation. He didn't polish his spiritual power at all, and strengthened his control over his own spiritual power.
This was also the main reason for the failure of this alchemy:
The spiritual power was delivered incorrectly, causing the Dao fire to move abnormally, and it was out of Ye Qingxuan's control and gradually rioted.
And the entry-level fire control technique could not control the rioting Dao fire, causing him to be unable to save the out-of-control situation!
After Ye Qingxuan knew where his problem was, he reflected:
"Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. It seems that I need to plan before I act in the future! Let's take it slow!"
Every failure makes a wiser person. Although the problem exposed this time is small, it needs to be taken as a warning.
Otherwise, this time it is a loss of a furnace of spiritual medicine, but next time I don't know what I will lose.
Putting the alchemy furnace into the storage ring, Ye Qingxuan did not try to refine the second batch of pills.
Now that he knew the reason for his failure, what he needed to do now was to make up for his shortcomings!
So, in the next month, Ye Qingxuan did not try to refine pills again.
In addition to daily meditation and practice, Ye Qingxuan spent the rest of his time practicing fire control, sword control, and spring breeze and rain!
Fire control and sword control are the spells that Ye Qingxuan needs to use now, and practice time ranks first.
And the spring breeze and rain is prepared by Ye Qingxuan for the future development of the blessed land. It is not used for the time being, so Ye Qingxuan only performs it a few times a day and does not spend much time practicing!
While practicing spells, Ye Qingxuan's control over spiritual power has been constantly improving.
In this way, in the next month, Ye Qingxuan either meditates and practices fire control in the room!
Or he practices sword control and spring breeze and rain on the mountains around the Fuxiuyuan!
Xuantian Mountain Range is very large, and there are not many people building caves around Fuxiuyuan, so Ye Qingxuan is not worried about disturbing others.
In just one month, Ye Qingxuan's proficiency in the three low-level spells has improved by leaps and bounds.
The sword control technique and fire control technique have reached the perfect state, and the spring breeze and rain technique has also been completed.
It must be said that although Ye Qingxuan is constrained by his spiritual roots, which leads to a very slow cultivation speed, his understanding is indeed amazing!
One month later!
Ye Qingxuan started to refine the pill again.
This time, the refining of the Qi-inducing Pill was very smooth. Under Ye Qingxuan's perfect level of fire control technique, it was almost a natural success.
In the first furnace of pills, Ye Qingxuan made five pills!
In the second furnace of pills, Ye Qingxuan made six pills!
In the third furnace of pills, Ye Qingxuan made six pills!
However, because refining pills consumes a lot of spiritual power.
In order not to affect his own practice, Ye Qingxuan only refines three furnaces of Qi-inducing Pills a day.
After ten days, Ye Qingxuan finally refined twenty-nine Qi-inducing pills.
A total of 230 Qi-inducing pills were refined!
The reason why so many Qi-inducing pills were refined was that Ye Qingxuan's proficiency in alchemy continued to improve. In the following days, he had stabilized the number of Qi-inducing pills in a furnace to ten!
At this point, Ye Qingxuan's alchemy career finally entered the first threshold!
