Chapter 119: Standards of a First-Class Alchemist



First of all, its refining cost is very low among first-grade elixirs, about one hundred and fifty spirit crystals, so Kong Ju would not feel bad if it wasted.

Secondly, its medicinal effect is also what Kong Jiao feels is very necessary at present.

If you are injured, you can quickly recover your combat effectiveness with the help of this Guyuan Pill.

The materials were ready-made. Kong Ju had collected the elixir for Guyuan Dan in the training battlefield before, and was preparing to make it for Shangguan Yuzhou to drink.

Later, he was protected by sword energy and no one was allowed to enter, so the matter was put aside.

Now is a good time to practice.

Kong Ju took out the medicinal ingredients for Guyuan Pill one by one from the Qiankun bag, just enough to refine two portions.

"Open the furnace!"

Kong Ju did not hesitate. According to the refining order of Guyuan Dan, he first threw the Guyuan Fruit, which was the main ingredient, into the Golden Luan Furnace.

He placed his palms against the furnace wall, transforming his spiritual energy into a dark blue furnace fire for refining elixirs.

Start extracting the medicinal essence of the Guyuan Fruit.

His movements were skillful and smooth, as if he had done them a thousand times.

The difficulty of refining a high-quality spiritual medicine is indeed much more difficult than that of refining a Qi-nourishing Pill.

It took Kong Jue a whole stick of incense to extract all the medicinal essence of the Guyuan Fruit from the elixir.

He was not in a hurry and his expression was calm. He slowly expelled the residue and then threw in the second medicine, repeating the process.

All the spiritual medicines needed for the Guyuan Pill have been transformed into the purest medicinal essence.

Although the process was a bit slow, it was stable and nothing went wrong.

Start the second step.

Casting pills.

He used the Golden Throne Furnace's transformation array to deprive the coldness in the spiritual power, then entered the furnace and began to attack the medicinal essence that had been slowly fused together under the fire in the furnace.

Let their medicinal properties completely blend together.

The process of refining high-quality elixirs is much more difficult than refining Qi-nourishing pills.

Because the medicine was too strong, Kong Ji didn't dare to use too much force and could only try to use it slowly.

When the first impact of spiritual power rushed into the mottled essence of spiritual power, there was an illusion of being stuck in a quagmire.

But he didn't dare to attack too recklessly with all his strength, for fear that the essence would riot.

He had to slowly increase his strength and constantly adjust the spiritual energy supplied to the alchemy furnace.

This also caused the time to be prolonged, and a lot of medicinal essence was evaporated by the constantly burning fire in the alchemy furnace.

"I'm afraid the quality of this batch of pills is not very high." Kong Ju knew what this meant, and his expression remained unchanged after he murmured.

Even an experienced alchemist like Ge Xia would make mistakes when refining an elixir recipe he has never encountered before for the first time.

Therefore, Kong Ju still maintained his own rhythm and performed calmly, just like an old alchemist.

The process of making the pill took a full half hour.

When the mottled medicinal power gradually turned into orange-yellow and emitted a slight medicinal fragrance, Kong Ju knew it was time to proceed to the next step.

The pill is ready.

Relying on the precise control of spiritual power, he vibrated the orange-yellow medicinal power and condensed them into a pill.

The success or failure of this batch of pills depends on this step.

Bang! As the spiritual power in the alchemy furnace vibrated, the alchemy fire burned.

Three orange-yellow pills slowly took shape in the furnace and were roasted with a little fire, so that the medicinal effects were firmly locked in the pills.

Kong Ju had just slowly unveiled his first batch of low-grade medicinal pills.

The aroma of medicine, as sweet as peach, wafted out from the golden furnace.

Kong Ju stretched out his hand and took out three Guyuan pills which were still warm from the furnace.

Place it on your palm and check for any effects.

As Kong Ju had expected, the quality of this batch of Guyuan Dan was not high, with only a thin layer of dan.

It proves that its medicinal efficacy is about 60%, and it can only be considered a finished product.

This proves that my exploration of the alchemy experience in Ge Xia’s memory was still effective.

As long as six out of ten furnaces can be completed successfully, he can be considered a first-grade alchemist.

After putting away the first batch of Guyuan Pills, Kong Ju immediately started to refine the second batch.

With the experience gained from the first furnace, the refining time of the second furnace was shortened by almost one third.

Moreover, in the step of casting the elixir, Kong Jue with suitable strength was found, and the situation like that of the first furnace did not occur again.

Therefore, as the second batch of pills came out of the furnace, when Kong Ju placed the three Guyuan Pills in his palm, he could already clearly see the bright layer of pill coating on the orange-yellow pills.

"70% efficacy, this batch is of good quality."

Kong Ju nodded with satisfaction. The fact that his two furnaces did not explode in a row gave him more confidence.

There are only two sets of materials for the Guyuan Pill. After they are all refined, Kong Ju will naturally switch to the next kind of pill.

That is the main elixir he is refining this time, Sanling Paste.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The refining of Guyuan Pill can only be regarded as a practice to find the feel of refining a first-grade pill.

Kong Ju, who was now in good form, couldn't wait to take out the materials for the Sanling Paste that he had purchased from those casual cultivators in the market in Luoxia City in the past few days.

The market town of Luoxia City is close to the Xiling Mountains. There are countless magical herbs in the mountains. For alchemists, it is a rare place to collect magical herbs.

It actually made things convenient for Kong Jue.

Start the furnace and make the elixir.

Sanling Paste is different from all the elixirs Kong Ju had made before.

Whether it was the Qi-nourishing Pill or the Yuan-strengthening Pill that he refined, they were either for improving one's cultivation.

Or it's for healing.

However, Sanling Paste is a completely poisonous pill.

He can make it difficult for the poisoned person to mobilize their spiritual power, preventing them from exerting their full strength in battle.

There are also slight differences in the methods of refining poison pills.

However, the pharmacology is the same.

For Kong Jue, who has nearly sixty years of experience in alchemy, this is not a difficult task.

When he confidently opened the furnace and threw in the elixir, the first step of extracting the medicinal power went relatively smoothly.

When flushing the medicinal power in the second step, the furnace exploded directly. The poison power rioted, like gunpowder being ignited.

That was Kong Ju's first experience with the feeling of a blast furnace.

Boom! There was a loud roar.

The lid of the Golden Palace Furnace was blasted open by the raging medicinal power.

The powerful explosion made Kong Jue, who was standing by the stove, bear the brunt of the impact.

He only felt a black screen in front of his eyes and a stuffy ears, and he didn't even have time to defend himself.

His face was directly covered by the black smoke that burst out from the furnace.

The force of the explosion sent his entire body flying, slamming hard into the wall of the room.

"Cough cough!" Kong Jue, who was dressed in pitch black, got up from the ground and coughed heavily twice, spitting out the smoke and powder he had inhaled into his throat, his face full of discomfort.

Fortunately, this room is guarded, otherwise the power of the explosion of this pot of elixir would probably blow the whole room apart.

It seemed that he sensed the movement in Kong Ju's room.

At this moment, the neighbor next door shouted in dissatisfaction outside the room: "Fuck, what are they doing in there? Are you going to blow this place up?"

Most of the independent cultivators have bad tempers, especially in the Xiling area, where many people will fight over a disagreement.

"It's none of your business. Did they blow up your house?" Kong Ju, who was protected by Wanbian Qianzong, was not afraid of trouble. He was already in a bad mood because of the furnace explosion, so he replied with a dark face and a hoarse voice.

"Come in and fight me if you can."

Outside the door, a big bearded man heard Kong Ju's vigorous response and felt that the person inside was not a good person. He didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he spat and walked away cursing.
