Chapter 92: First Alchemy

After everything was ready, Lu Li began to refine the elixir for the first time in his life.

The first three medicinal materials of the acupuncture pill were green bamboo grass, thunder fire orchid and earth milk essence, and the last medicinal material was red flame fruit.

The order of putting them in was also as mentioned above. If there was a confusion, not only would the refining fail, but the furnace might also explode.

Lu Li took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

After preheating the furnace, he carefully picked up the green bamboo grass and put it in.

Then he quickly closed the furnace cover, sat on the small stool and imitated Xiao Jue's previous appearance, put his consciousness into the furnace and watched the changes of the green bamboo grass inside, and at the same time turned the earth fire switch slightly with his hand.

Apart from other things, in terms of this stable mentality, Lu Li really looked like an alchemist.

In a blink of an eye, half a quarter of an hour passed.

I don't know if Lu Li was too careful. The green bamboo in the furnace was not only a little scalded, but also didn't extract a trace of medicinal liquid. Lu Li seemed a little listless because his consciousness was always watching the medicinal materials.

His realm was still too low, and he couldn't keep staring at the furnace like Xiao Jue.

He had to withdraw his consciousness temporarily, and at the same time lowered the furnace fire to recover first.

When he was almost recovered, Lu Li continued to put his consciousness into the furnace, but when he looked inside, his face suddenly became bad. He saw that the green bamboo grass inside had no spirituality, and the stems were shrunk and wrinkled like the face of a 100-year-old woman.

Could it be caused by the sudden drop in temperature?

Lu Li had no choice but to take it out, and then pulled another green bamboo grass from the medicine garden and threw it into the furnace.

This time Lu Li didn't dare to be careless, and decided not to stop until the spirit liquid was extracted. At the same time, he was no longer stupid like before and kept staring at the spiritual medicine. He just occasionally put his consciousness in to see the changes in the spiritual medicine, and then immediately retracted his consciousness.

In this way, it was indeed several times easier, and his consciousness didn't feel consumed at all.

This made him secretly happy, thinking that his head was not too stupid.

Because he felt that he was too cautious before and the refining was too slow, Lu Li increased the firepower a little bit. As the ground fire switch turned slightly, the firepower became a little stronger.

After changing the temperature, Lu Li quickly put his spiritual sense into it, and confirmed that the bamboo grass was not burned to ashes because of his sudden adjustment of the temperature. He was relieved.

After a while, Lu Li put his spiritual sense into it again and found that the stems of the bamboo grass had begun to overflow with emerald green juice. He couldn't help but look happy. After several experiments, he finally grasped the temperature of refining the bamboo grass.

He believed that he didn't need to be so cautious in refining the bamboo grass in the future, and he could directly adjust the temperature he needed.

Not long after, the spiritual liquid of the bamboo grass had been completely extracted, and the originally emerald green stems and leaves had turned into flying ash, which was absorbed by the restriction on the alchemy furnace and discharged out of the alchemy furnace.

This is one of the reasons why the alchemy furnace is rare. This kind of restriction that discharges impurities out of the furnace alone is not something that ordinary people can depict.

The extracted spiritual liquid gathered at the bottom of the furnace, about the size of a little finger. I don't know if Lu Li's green bamboo grass is more spiritual, but this medicinal liquid actually looks emerald green and crystal clear, which is very beautiful.

After a medicinal liquid is extracted, it only needs to be kept warm. Lu Li slowly turned down the earth fire, then quickly stood up and grabbed the thunder fire orchid in the jade plate and threw it in, and then covered the furnace cover tightly with lightning speed.

After the thunder fire orchid went in, Lu Li began to control it carefully again.

Because the green bamboo grass inside has become spiritual liquid, it is necessary to pay more attention to refining the thunder fire orchid. Otherwise, if you are not careful, it is not just the thunder fire orchid that is lost, but even the green bamboo grass spiritual liquid will be wasted.

However, the pill formula has been verified after all, which means that as long as it is properly controlled, it is completely possible to extract the essence of the thunder fire orchid without damaging the green bamboo grass spiritual liquid.

Otherwise, it is not worthy of being called a pill formula.

Behind the formation of each pill formula, there is an extraordinary genius who has obtained it after countless experiments. So...the recipe is a treasure for cultivators, especially for alchemists.

Especially the order of putting in, the result cannot be obtained without repeated experiments.

Although it was Lu Li's first time to make an elixir, he had read Xiao Jue's "Alchemy Notes" repeatedly and had no shortage of theoretical knowledge.

Moreover, he was very cautious and did not increase the temperature all at once, but gradually increased the temperature to test. Seeing that the spiritual liquid of the Thunder Fire Orchid was slowly overflowing from the leaves, he immediately stabilized it and slightly reduced the temperature.

In this way, the spiritual liquid of the Thunder Fire Orchid was extracted very smoothly.

The two balls of spiritual liquid lay quietly at the bottom of the alchemy furnace. Although the edges were in contact, they did not blend.

Lu Li hesitated for a moment and stood up, took the essence of the earth milk in the jade plate, uncorked the bottle, opened the alchemy furnace only a small gap, and then gently dripped a drop into it.

Zizi.....

The essence of the earth milk fell on the wall of the furnace and a burst of white smoke came out. Lu Li quickly closed the lid of the furnace and put his consciousness into the alchemy furnace, observing nervously.

The milky white essence of earth milk rolled down the furnace wall and then slid into the two spiritual liquids, but there was no change after sliding down. The three spiritual liquids were unrelated.

This puzzled Lu Li.

Looking at the weak earth fire under the furnace, Lu Li was thoughtful, and then began to slowly increase the fire.

Sure enough.

As the heat increased, the three masses of spiritual liquid began to slowly merge. After a while, they merged into one mass, turning into a semi-condensed pill the size of a thumb and covered in emerald green.

The surface hardness is probably about the same as glutinous rice balls.

"Only the last elixir left!"

Lu Li's palms were sweating. After working hard for so long, he finally saw a glimmer of hope. Now, as long as the last elixir, Chi Yanguo, does not cause any accidents, this acupuncture pill will be considered a success.

He carefully put the red flame fruit in the jade plate into it, and carefully controlled the ground fire again.

It has to be said that Lu Li's method of slowly increasing the temperature of the fire from small to large was very good. Soon he figured out the temperature required to refine the Red Flame Fruit, and the fiery red spiritual liquid began to slowly overflow from the surface of the Red Flame Fruit. out.

And gradually melted into the emerald green pill.

As the red spirit liquid entered the pill, the pill began to slowly shrink, and some small red spots formed in the emerald green, which looked a bit dreamy.

"It's going to be successful, it's going to be successful!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Li blurted out excitedly. At the same time, his hand shook... and the flames burst out from under the furnace.

Oh!

The pill that had been formed inside was instantly charred to black.

"Ah I......"

Lu Li hit him on the head with a hammer. What a hatred in his heart! Why was I so unstable? I'm fine now. I've been busy for half an hour.

In fact, Lu Li couldn't be blamed for this. Not to mention that he was still young, even those old men who had experienced many things would be more excited than him if they achieved elixir in one go.

"That's all, come back later."

Lu Li turned off the ground fire and took out the charred waste pills from the pill furnace.

He sat at the door to cool down for a while, summed up the previous alchemy process, and then devoted himself to a new round of alchemy again.

Had the first experience.

This time, Lu Li's movements were much more skillful than before.
