The next day, Yun Dandan buried herself in the ocean of knowledge, like a sponge that had not been soaked in water, and absorbed a lot after five days of photographic memory.
"Fourth Brother, alchemy requires purity and temperature, as well as the complementary effects of various spiritual herbs and the quality of the alchemy furnace. What's the problem with your poorly refined elixir?"
Helian Mo put down the lunch box in his hand, looked at the dozens of books piled on the bed, and spoke in surprise.
"Junior Sister, haven't you had any rest these days?"
"I'm resting. I've been watching the bed all day. What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's okay." The junior sister reads the book very fast, I don't know if she understands it.
"The one I used in the question you asked was a Xuan-grade alchemy furnace, and the purity of the medicinal liquid was 4...30%." But I was unable to successfully refine the elixir.
Helian Mo felt very embarrassed. Would his junior sister think that he was too stupid?
"Brother, please refine a pill for me to see."
"Okay, but you have to stay away."
When Yun Dandan heard this, she thought of the black smoke she saw when she first arrived, and stood not far from the cave entrance.
After everything was ready, what did she see? She saw Fourth Brother carelessly throwing the herbs in, refining them casually before continuing with the next spiritual herb. Then, there was the unstable "thumping" sound in the furnace, and then she heard him shouting.
"Junior sister, run!"
'whoosh'
Yun Dandan felt a shadow passing by her, and then there was a "bang", the lid of the alchemy furnace was blown open, and thick black fog was like a smoke screen without fire.
“Cough…, cough cough cough…”
"Fourth Senior Brother, are you going to murder your own Junior Sister?"
Helian Mo touched his head awkwardly, "Junior sister, I forgot that you can't practice and run fast. I'm sorry."
"You saw me refining the elixir, but it just wouldn't form. I don't know what went wrong."
Yun rolled her eyes and said, "It would be strange if you could make a pill the way you refine it."
"Then let's start with purity. I have a method here. I wonder if you are willing to try it."
"Okay." This is Junior Sister's kindness, I can't let her down. It would be a waste to figure it out and refine it myself anyway, so it doesn't matter.
A quarter of an hour later, everything was ready and the furnace was cleaned.
"Brother, every time you refine a spiritual herb liquid, divide it into ten equal portions and place them into this small jade bottle. Then extract them one by one to refine the elixir."
"OK."
Helian Mo's eyes lit up slightly. He had never tried this method before, so maybe it would be effective.
Come to think of it, I'm still an apprentice. It's so embarrassing to tell anyone about it.
Purify, refine, just when he was about to put the bottle into the bottle, he heard a voice to stop him.
"Wait a minute, Senior Brother. Try refining the medicinal liquid using this method."
Dozens of drawings were lined up and placed on the ground next to me. Each one was a gesture. I drew them based on the author's font description. It was very laborious.
Helian Mo was shocked: "This is a lost technique!"
"Don't just stand there, practice quickly."
"Oh, okay."
He read it over and over again, not having time to be shocked, and concentrated it in his mind ten times before he began to perform it.
Soon, the medicine liquid began to emit bursts of fragrance and was crystal clear. It was many times better than the previous medicine liquid.
"It can be put into the jade bottle now."
Helian Mo's hands were shaking with excitement. The purity had to be at least 70%, which was unimaginable in the past.
"Fourth Brother, hold on."
Seeing that the flame was unstable, Yun Dandan immediately looked at her senior brother with bright eyes, really afraid that he would ruin the medicine in an instant.
"Okay, okay."
Half an hour later, the unique fragrance of the elixir spread throughout the cave, making people feel comfortable all over. Eight crystal clear elixirs lay in a jade plate beside it.
"Ah... I finally refined the elixir, and it has an 80% success rate. Junior Sister, you are amazing!"
Yun Dandan looked at the finished pill and felt that alchemy seemed to be just like that?
Helian Mo danced with excitement, and it felt like words were on the tip of his tongue but he couldn't say them. He simply couldn't describe the excitement he felt after his success.
"Senior brother is awesome, he will definitely get better and better in the future."
"I, I'm going to tell them the good news, so they won't always think that I can't refine the pill."
Yun Dandan grabbed the person who was about to leave and said, "Fourth Brother, you have to make the elixir with all your strength, otherwise it will weaken after the second one and run out of energy after the third one."
"I understand the first move, but what does the rest mean? It's so literary."
"Strike while the iron is hot and consolidate your alchemy skills. Some people can refine pills faster than you, but that's because they practice diligently. If you become complacent after refining just one batch of pills, you'll become impatient and unable to succeed in future alchemy."
"Boom!" Helian Mo felt something hit his head and quickly took back his steps.
"Junior Sister is right. I will continue refining it now."
In this way, the two of them spent a whole day refining in the cave.
At the peak, Yue Yang used his spiritual power to place the stone on the ground and asked in confusion, "Fifth Junior Brother, why didn't Fourth Junior Brother's cave emit black smoke today? It doesn't seem right."
"Maybe he didn't refine it today, but that shouldn't be possible. He refines it in the cave every day. Why don't we go and take a look?"
After reaching an agreement, the two of them landed in front of the cave in a moment, with waves of medicinal fragrance heading towards them.
Bai Ziyi opened his eyes wide in disbelief, "Dan, Dan Xiang!?"
"It's the fragrance of elixir, freshly made."
The two of them strode in and saw more than a dozen jade bottles and a jade plate on the ground. On the plate were round and crystal clear pills.
Oh my God!
The two looked at each other, and saw from each other's eyes whether they were still sleepy.
"Second Brother, I'm sorry."
Bai Ziyi took advantage of his second senior brother's moment of distraction and suddenly pinched his thigh.
“Ah…!”
Yueyang jumped up on the spot, "What are you doing?! It hurts so much."
"Hehe, let me see if I'm dreaming. Fourth Junior Brother actually refined the elixir."
“Also, Second Brother, you’ve trained your body, so the pain means it’s real.”
"Then why don't you pinch yourself? You're actually using spiritual power to pinch yourself."
"I can't pinch you without spiritual power."
Yun Dandan looked up at the two of them, "Second Brother, Fifth Brother, why are you here?"
"Let's see why there's no smoke coming out of Fourth Junior Brother's cave today."
Helian Mo: “…”
Looking at his resentful eyes, Yue Yang touched his nose awkwardly and smiled awkwardly: "Haha."
"Hmph, now that you've seen it, what do you think? Who said I couldn't refine the elixir?"
"Fourth Brother, you must not be complacent."
"Oh, I see."
Bai Ziyi was surprised: "Fourth Senior Brother, you actually listen to Junior Sister so much?"
“Why don’t you listen? If you don’t listen, I won’t be able to successfully refine the pill, let alone so many.”
"What's the meaning?"
The two looked at him in confusion. What did the junior sister say that made him succeed?
