Upon entering the kitchen, the first thing Jiang An did was to clean and tidy up the entire space.
She carefully wiped the countertop and organized all the cooking utensils to ensure everything was in top condition.
Then, she took out the precious medicinal materials used to make the antidote pills one by one and arranged them neatly in a certain order so that they could be used at any time.
These medicinal herbs exude a faint fragrance, as if they contain endless vitality.
As his gaze swept over the iron pot used specifically for refining medicine, Jiang An couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.
How she longed to possess a magical alchemy furnace like that of Laozi!
However, perhaps because of her low level or other unknown reasons, she has not yet been able to achieve her wish and does not have a proper alchemy furnace, so she can only use a pot to refine medicine.
But this did not discourage Jiang An; instead, it fueled her even greater fighting spirit.
After making a few adjustments, Jiang An quickly began to refine the medicine.
She stared intently at the iron pot in front of her, her hands moving with practiced skill and fluidity, like a seasoned master craftsman.
All sorts of medicinal herbs were placed into the pot in an orderly manner and began to be simmered at high temperatures.
Perhaps it was thanks to his previous experience in refining the Purple Gold Pill that Jiang An seemed particularly adept this time, even though he was refining a different kind of pill.
Throughout the process, Jiang An remained vigilant, closely monitoring the temperature and changes in the medicinal liquid.
Based on her memories and experience, she constantly adjusted the heat and added appropriate amounts of water or other auxiliary materials, striving to refine each pill to perfection.
Time passed by, and the kitchen was filled with a rich aroma of herbs, which was intoxicating.
Jiang An gently lifted the pot lid, his gaze falling on the lump of medicinal paste in the pot that exuded a rich medicinal aroma, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
She picked up the ball of medicinal paste, kneaded it in her palm, and then slowly rolled it into small, exquisite pills.
After some effort, she successfully obtained 6 somewhat crude and inferior antidote pills.
Next, Jiang An took out the antidote pills he had previously purchased at the auction house from his backpack.
After careful comparison, she found that apart from slight differences in appearance—the antidote pill she made herself was not as round and smooth as the one she bought at the auction house—the two were almost identical in other aspects.
Jiang An was fully aware of this situation. After all, her resources were limited, and she could only use rudimentary tools and equipment to make medicine, which could not compare with professional workshops.
However, although these antidote pills look rather plain, their medicinal effects are by no means diminished.
Afterwards, Jiang An found a special medicine bottle, put the freshly made antidote pills into it one by one, and placed them in his backpack with great care, as if each pill was a priceless treasure.
After finishing all this, she happily began to look forward to the results of the next batch, silently praying that she could refine a more superior ordinary antidote pill.
It's important to know that even among detoxification pills, there are still some differences between inferior and ordinary products.
Ordinary detoxification pills can not only eliminate more types of toxins, but also take effect much faster.
As for whether it is truly as miraculous as described in those cultivation novels, possessing unique effects, Jiang An dared not make a definitive conclusion.
But in such a dangerous place, it is already difficult enough to save one's life, so why ask for more?
With this in mind, Jiang An took a deep breath, calmed himself, and continued to focus on his work.
Finally, she carefully scrubbed the iron pot, leaving no corner untouched, making sure it was spotless so that any remaining impurities wouldn't affect the quality of the next alchemy session. Then she used toilet paper to wipe away any remaining water stains from the pot.
Jiang An took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and began to refine the second batch of antidote pills.
Time passed slowly, and she focused intently on controlling the flames, adding various precious herbs into the pot and carefully observing their changes.
Finally, after much effort, the second batch of antidote pills was successfully refined!
Compared to the first batch, the results this time were significantly better. Not only was the amount of dregs greatly reduced, but the amount of medicinal paste also increased remarkably.
Jiang Anxin kneaded the medicinal paste into balls with satisfaction, eventually obtaining three ordinary detoxification pills and five slightly flawed inferior detoxification pills.
It's worth mentioning that a full pot of pills could normally yield ten antidote pills, but Jiang An actually succeeded in refining eight this time, achieving a yield rate as high as 80%!
This is an excellent result, but she believes that one day she will be able to achieve a perfect score.
After all, her pill formulas directly instill knowledge into the brain; what she lacks now is simply proficiency.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang An prepared the third and fourth batches.
Finally, she happily packed the antidote pills one by one into the small bottles she had prepared beforehand, carefully marked and noted them on the bottles, and then put them into her backpack.
With a total of 28 antidote pills, Jiang An felt more confident about her upcoming journey to the underwater snake cave tomorrow.
After refining the antidote pills, he sent them to his two friends as agreed.
She soon received a large sum of transaction points.
After a short rest, Jiang An turned on the screen in front of him and quickly browsed the regional channels and private messages to make sure he didn't miss any important messages.
After confirming that everything was alright, she threw herself back into the great cause of alchemy without hesitation.
At this point, the medicinal materials used to make the antidote pills had been exhausted, but fortunately, there were still enough medicinal materials left for the Purple Gold Pills to make twelve more batches.
Although there wasn't much time left today, Jiang An knew that time was like water in a sponge; as long as you were willing to squeeze, there would always be some left.
Besides, she only has six Purple Gold Pills left!
The scarcity of these pills, brought about by their limited quantity, felt like a sharp blade hanging over her head, filling her heart with an unprecedented sense of unease and fear.
Therefore, no matter what, she had to make as much as possible to feel at ease.
