C234 Refining Medicine
C234 Refining Medicine
Qi Zhuohao knew clearly in his heart that the Pill Fire temperature that each type of medicinal liquid could withstand was different. And the three types of medicinal liquids needed to be heated by the Pill Fire at the same time in order to achieve the result of fusing together. In other words, he needed to separate the Pill Fire and burn the three medicinal liquids. At the same time, he needed to control the temperature of the separated Pill Fire and the second step of alchemy. Compared to the first step of purification, it was much more difficult!
Fortunately, multitasking was not too difficult for martial artists. And separating the Pill Fire was also very simple for Qi Zhuohao, who was at the Great Circle of the Spirit Acceptance Realm. The difficult part was to control the temperature of the separately separated Pill Fire.
Taking a deep breath, Qi Zhuohao released the Pill Fire. After injecting the Pill Fire into the alchemy furnace, he instantly split the Pill Fire into three flames, burning three drops of medicinal liquid, and finally reaching the stage of completely fusing the three drops of medicinal liquid.
Being multitasking was not a small test for alchemists. Qi Zhuohao's control of the Pill Fire was already very strong, but it was also very difficult for him to control the Pill Fire at different temperatures to fuse the medicinal liquid.
Fortunately, Qi Zhuohao had made sufficient preparations over the past few days to lay a foundation for the melting process. The three drops of medicinal liquid became more and more viscous. Finally, they slowly merged together. At this moment... What Qi Zhuohao needed to do was to fuse the three Pill Fire into one. He also controlled the temperature of the Pill Fire to the average temperature of the three types of medicinal liquids before slowly continuing to refine the medicinal liquids.
The melting of the medicinal liquid needed to be done in one go. Qi Zhuohao was meticulous, and his expression was unusually solemn. Gradually, the water in the medicinal liquid evaporated, and only the incomparably pure solid medicinal liquid was left in the furnace.
Qi Zhuohao's heart moved. He knew that at this moment, it was already the third step to forming the medicinal pill. At this time, what he needed to do was to activate the pill refining technique and use the Pill Fire to complete the final form of the medicinal pill.
The step of forming the medicinal pill was the simplest step. At the same time, it was also the most dangerous step. At this moment, whether it was the temperature within the furnace or the temperature of a solid medicinal liquid, both were extremely high. Once the medicine failed, it was very likely that it would cause an explosion, which was also known as an explosion.
The consequences of an explosion were great and small, and if it was light, the medicinal liquid would be destroyed. If it was heavy, then the alchemy furnace would directly explode, threatening the alchemist's life. Refining pills and refining weapons were actually very dangerous sub-occupations. Many alchemists and blacksmiths died in the furnace explosion.
Therefore, Qi Zhuohao had to be extra careful in the process of making the medicine. The destruction of the medicine was small, but the destruction of the alchemy furnace would be troublesome. With Qi Zhuohao's physical defense, even if the furnace exploded, it wouldn't cause any harm to him.
The activation of the alchemy technique caused Qi Zhuohao's Pill Fire to produce a mysterious runic seal effect. The effect was like a formation, completely fusing the solid medicinal liquid and forming a round pill.
"Success!" A medicinal fragrance that smelled like wheat spread out from the pill furnace. Qi Zhuohao hurriedly withdrew his Pill Fire. He continued to let the furnace heat up the pill for a while before opening the furnace lid. Sure enough, a pale green Awakening Pill was lying inside.
Qi Zhuohao was extremely excited. This was the first time he had concocted a pill. Although it was only one pill, it was already very impressive for a beginner like him. 99% of the alchemists had to go through many attempts to refine a pill. There were almost no alchemists like Qi Zhuohao who could successfully refine a pill after a few failures of purification!
Qi Zhuohao still had a faint sense of loss in his heart. One had to know that a cauldron of Medicinal Pill could at most produce nine pills, and Qi Zhuohao could only refine one. This proved that his refining ability was very weak. The purification and refinement stages still needed to be improved.
Only those who could concoct three pills in a furnace could be considered as a true Mortal Rank low level alchemist. Nine pills in a furnace was already the standard for a Mortal Rank high level alchemist. Qi Zhuohao still had a long way to go if he wanted to become an Earth Rank alchemist.
With the first pill being concocted, Qi Zhuohao's confidence skyrocketed. He devoted all of his attention to concocting the pill, and completely forgot about the time. And every failure, every conclusion, relied on persistent practice. Qi Zhuohao's alchemy level was gradually increasing. Ten days later... He could finally refine three pills in one furnace, and step into the Mortal Rank low-rank alchemist realm.
After he became an alchemist, Qi Zhuohao's alchemy ability began to increase by leaps and bounds. When one thousand Low-grade Mortal Rank herbs were used up, he had already advanced to Mortal Rank middle level alchemist.
"Zhuohao, you are really a genius alchemist. It has only been less than two months. You have actually reached the realm of a high-grade Mortal Rank alchemist. Amazing!" Nan Yudia gave Qi Zhuohao a thumbs up. She was not praising Qi Zhuohao. Instead, she spoke out the true thoughts in her heart.
In these two months, Nan Yudia's Wind Spirit Bead had already refined 1% of it. And Shen Ji had already completely absorbed the Evil Nether Stone and the Frost Blood Crystal, becoming a true Blood Frost Body martial artist. She would no longer suffer from the backlash of the blood cold.
"Yudia, you and Ji don't have to praise me anymore. I will be proud! Come, quickly eat the food. After eating, I still have to work hard to refine medicine! "Qi Zhuohao's smile was very bright. In less than two months. He had already reached the Mortal Rank upper grade alchemist realm, and this was even under the condition of self-learning without the guidance of a pill refining master. Even he himself was deeply moved by his own talent in alchemy.
One had to know that ordinary alchemists, from the initial learning to advancing to a high-grade Mortal Rank alchemist... However, Qi Zhuohao only used less than a month's time. No one would believe that ___ had such talent in alchemy.
Of course, it was true that Qi Zhuohao had great talent in alchemy, but he had achieved so much. It was also because of his physique. One should know that... The fire attribute Spiritual Force that he had used nine types of Spiritual Force to transform into was extraordinary. The Pill Fire that he had condensed was... It was extremely formidable, and it was suitable for alchemy. Coupled with his painstaking practice, with the assistance of a large amount of medicinal ingredients, he had achieved his current achievements!
"Zhuohao, elder sister and I are not praising you. You are really a drug refining madman. You did not even accompany us."
Shen Ji felt a little wronged. Currently, she was already able to completely control the power of the blood cold. Furthermore, she already had the strength of heart. Her strength was more than six or seven times stronger than before. However, she was not very happy about the improvement of her strength. Because Qi Zhuohao had focused on refining medicine and neglected her.
"Haha!" Qi Zhuohao smiled and continued, "Ji, Yudia, I am really sorry. I am too busy. So I didn't spend much time with you guys during this period of time. But don't worry. When I refine the Poison Avoiding Pill, I will accompany you for a few days. We will be inseparable to compensate for the youth that we have missed out on. How about it? "
Qi Zhuohao was very helpless. In the world of martial artists, there were many things that could not be controlled. He painstakingly refined medicine for the sake of increasing his strength, and only by possessing sufficient strength. Only then would he have the ability to protect Nan Yudia and Shen Ji. Otherwise... He wanted to stay with Nan Yudia and Shen Ji at all times unless they found a place with no one to hide. Otherwise, it was simply impossible.
What Qi Zhuohao pursued was the supreme martial arts, a long life. He did not want to be a reclusive martial artist and disappear from this world in no time. The improvement of his realm and strength was what he pursued. What he wanted was to accompany Nan Yudia and Shen Ji forever.
"Who wants you to accompany them? You better go and refine the medicine honestly!" Nan Yudia teased. Qi Zhuohao knew that she was saying things that did not belong to her heart. Therefore, Qi Zhuohao did not point it out. He lived in the same manor as the two beauties. Qi Zhuohao was actually very satisfied.
"That's right. Zhuohao, don't think too much about it. I was just casually talking about it earlier. Did you really take it seriously?" When did Shen Ji glare at Qi Zhuohao? It was just that her gaze was a little fleeting, and it did not match her tone of voice.
Qi Zhuohao was somewhat speechless and pretended to be angry. "I say, Ji, you have learned bad things from Yudia. People should be honest!"
Shen Ji was a person who could not hide her inner thoughts. Qi Zhuohao exposed her lie and she immediately blushed. She lowered her head to eat and did not speak to Qi Zhuohao anymore. She seemed to be protesting that Qi Zhuohao did not give her face.
"Alright, I am full. What do you guys do after eating? Don't worry about me." Qi Zhuohao wiped his lips, then got up and kissed Shen Ji and Nan Yudia on their faces. He then walked back to his bedroom.
"Sister, your skin is so good. Look. Zhuohao even kissed a mark on it." Shen Ji smiled sweetly. Her skin was already very tender and smooth. However, it still could not be compared to Nan Yudia's skin. Nan Yudia's skin was as tender and smooth as a baby's. Furthermore, it was very elastic and could be said to be the most perfect skin in the world!
"How could that be? Younger sister, don't speak nonsense!" Nan Yudia glared at Shen Ji. What Qi Zhuohao said was right. Shen Ji had been with her for a long time and was inseparable. Shen Ji's character changed and she also began to learn bad things.
The current Shen Ji was completely different from the cold and indifferent ice beauty back then. Of course, Shen Ji would only behave like this when she was beside Qi Zhuohao and Nan Yudia. Once there was an outsider around, she would immediately return to her previous cold appearance.
This was almost the same as Nan Yudia. Nan Yudia would not use a black veil to cover her face when she was by Shen Ji and Qi Zhuohao's side. On the contrary, Nan Yudia's beautiful face would not be exposed in front of other people's eyes.
"Younger sister, why is your face so red? Are you shy?" Nan Yudia giggled and Shen Ji's face instantly became even redder. Seeing this, Nan Yudia waved her hand and changed the topic, "Alright, I will not tease you anymore. Let's go back to our room to cultivate!"
The manor once again became quiet and peaceful. Nan Yudia continued to refine the Wind Spirit Bead while Shen Ji began to cultivate the Heart Sutra. As for Qi Zhuohao, he was naturally training hard on the medicinal pill and crazily increasing his alchemy strength.
Finally, after another half a month passed, Qi Zhuohao refined a cauldron of Heart Protecting Pills. This furnace of Heart Protecting Pills had a total of nine pills. It was the highest grade medicinal pill that Qi Zhuohao could refine so far. Qi Zhuohao's alchemy realm was infinitely close to the Earth Rank alchemist realm.
One had to know that the forging of Heart Protecting Pills was extremely complicated and difficult. Even ordinary Earth Rank Low Grade alchemists wouldn't dare to say that they could concoct the pill with 100% effectiveness. A cauldron of Heart Protecting Pills. Qi Zhuohao's heart was filled with joy. It was time for him to start concocting the Earth Rank Medicinal Pill.
The method of refining pills was the same as refining pills. The only difference was that... Every step of concocting pills consumed more time than concocting pills. This was a test for an alchemist's Spiritual Force. One cauldron of Medicinal Pill required one to continuously use Pill Fire to refine for at least an hour. If an alchemist did not have the support of a huge amount of Spiritual Force, there would only be one result. Pill refinement failed!
Qi Zhuohao immediately put away the Mortal Rank alchemy furnace and took out the three-legged alchemy furnace. This alchemy furnace was an Earth Rank alchemy furnace, and its quality was pretty good. Using it to concoct pills would bring him many extraordinary benefits.
"I hope the first batch of Medicinal Pill is successfully concocted!" Qi Zhuohao cheered himself on. He then took out a large amount of Earth Rank Low Grade herbs from his Interspatial Ring and started concocting pills.
