Chapter 5: Deer Horn Powder

"Deer blood, deer antlers, deer penis, mica, red stone..."

Gao Xian put all the processed medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace one by one and started to bake them.

The spoutless kettle-shaped three-legged alchemy furnace can be divided into eight different areas through internal wheels and manual partitions.

Some are used for baking, some are used for steaming, and some are used to extract and refine medicinal properties.

Below the furnace is a brick pedestal with a flue connected to the chimney outside.

Alchemy requires a large amount of charcoal. By using this simple pedestal and a rotating furnace, the temperature can be controlled.

There is a Yin-Yang water and fire magic circle engraved on the alchemy furnace, and the magic circle can be activated with spirit stones if necessary.

The cost of using magic circles is too high, and the demand for alchemists is also high.

The original owner was only at the first level of Qi training, and it was very difficult for him to control the alchemy furnace formation, so he almost always used charcoal to make pills.

Anyway, we are only refining low-level pills, so charcoal fire is enough.

Gao Xian advanced Deer Horn Powder to the Grandmaster level and completely mastered all basic alchemy techniques.

He also obtained all the alchemy memories of the original owner. The two confirmed each other and made Gao Xian transform from a rookie into an alchemy master in an instant.

He took out the Fengyue Baojian, and sure enough, the gray alchemy technique had returned to normal, and his proficiency in alchemy had greatly improved, and was about to reach the mastery level.

In order to verify what he had learned, Gao Xian decided to try his hand with Lujiaosan.

This kind of elixir is very simple and uses common medicinal materials that he can find in his own medicine storehouse.

Select the right medicinal materials and start the furnace.

Only at this point did Gao Xian finally understand what gentle fire and strong fire were, how to control the temperature, how to extract the medicinal properties, etc.

You can never learn these details and tricks by reading books. Only by practicing can you grasp the right degree and timing.

Alchemy is a technical job involving thousands of steps. If any step goes wrong, the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced, or even lead to the failure of alchemy.

Gao Xian has reached the level of a master in Lujiaosan. Although the world is big, if we simply compare Lujiaosan, there are few people better than him.

After half a day's work, the deer antlers came out of the furnace and the room was filled with the aroma of medicine.

As the name of Lujiaosan suggests, what is made from it is a pile of medicinal powder, weighing more than two kilograms.

Looking at this pool of carbon powder-like substance, Gao Xian was greatly excited and felt a sense of accomplishment.

It is like a chef finishing a famous dish. In fact, alchemy is very similar to cooking, with various ingredients combined, steamed, boiled and baked.

It’s just that alchemy is more sophisticated and complicated.

To put it in a more sophisticated way, it is a process of reducing entropy by making the energy more orderly through the rearrangement and combination of materials.

The success of this alchemy gave Gao Xian a great boost of confidence and also solved the biggest problem at hand!

After being excited for a while, Gao Xian finally remembered that the matter was not over yet.

He took honey and mixed it with pine wax to make pills with a coating of cinnabar, then rubbed the powder into peanut-sized pills with his hands.

The outer layer of Dan Yi can seal the medicinal properties and aroma, making it easier to preserve. It also tastes better when eaten.

Rolling the pills is a very simple action, and Dianyang Guanglong's super fast hand speed can be fully utilized.

After a while, Gao Xian rubbed out more than 200 pills.

The Deer Horn Powder refined by a Grandmaster must have extraordinary effects.

Gao Xian did not have an accurate estimate of this. He had never made Deer Horn Powder before, let alone eaten it, so he was not sure how good the Deer Horn Powder he made was.

In order to test the efficacy of the medicine, Gao Xian took one himself.

A heat rose from the dantian, quickly spread into the limbs and bones, and finally rushed straight to the top of the head.

The heat is strong but not fierce, yang but not dry.

It makes people feel that they are full of energy and are about to overflow, but the mind is very clear and they don't become manic because of the powerful medicinal properties.

"Grandmaster-level elixirs are indeed powerful!" Gao Xian was quite satisfied with this.

Magical instruments, talismans, and spells are generally divided into nine grades and thirty-six levels. Pills are also divided into nine grades, but not by level. Instead, they are divided from level one to level nine.

The same kind of elixir can only barely exert its medicinal effect after one transformation, but the nine-transformation elixir can make its medicinal effect reach its extreme.

Deer Horn Powder is a low-grade aphrodisiac and there is no way to refine it again.

However, the master-level Deer Horn Powder is enough to maximize the efficacy of the medicine and remove all the poison in the medicine.

In order to test the efficacy of the medicine, Gao Xian reluctantly went to find Sister Lan.

After his consciousness withdrew from the Fengyue Treasure Mirror, Gao Xian looked at the Great Owl Divine Art again and found that his cultivation had indeed increased by three points.

"With this magic medicine, you can crush the blue pills at will. If you can travel back in time, you can immediately become the savior of middle-aged and elderly men!"

Gao Xian lamented that it was a pity that he had learned the skills to slay dragons but did not have a dragon.

Fortunately, the Deer Horn Powder is very effective and it is also good for him to take it by himself, which can speed up the practice of the Great Puppet Divine Method.

No, there are also many middle-aged and elderly people in this world. Even their practitioners have physical abilities that are limited by the laws of nature.

Just like Mr. Wang next door, he is weak and his kidney water is insufficient. This is the best user!

There is no rush to make money, the most urgent task is to refine a batch of pills.

Gao Xian took out the Fengyue Baojian, and sure enough, his alchemy skills improved and reached the mastery level.

Alchemy was the most difficult of all his skills to upgrade, and he was greatly surprised to be able to upgrade so much at once.

Including the three kinds of elixirs that the original owner could refine, they were also upgraded to the mastery level.

The Grandmaster level realm is only for the Deer Horn Powder, but many of the methods for refining pills are common.

After this practical operation, the original owner's alchemy techniques were integrated and the alchemy skills were greatly improved. Gao Xian's alchemy skills were not far from the expert level.

Alchemy Level 1 Mastery (27/4000)

Qi-restoring pill proficiency (155/200)

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Guyuan Pill Mastery (161/200)

White Dew Dan proficiency (177/200)

Looking at the data on the Fengyue Treasure Mirror, Gao Xian was quite satisfied.

In just a few days, there has been a huge improvement. At this rate of growth, uh...

Gao Xian did a quick calculation and found it was too exaggerated, so he decided not to take it seriously.

While he was in good shape, Gao Xian cooked some meat and ate his fill.

The little black cat smelled the fragrance and ran out from somewhere, and also ate until his belly was full.

After eating, the little black cat was obviously sleepy and lay there with his eyes closed, taking a nap.

Gao Xian stroked it twice, and the little black cat just wagged its tail and then didn't respond.

This made Gao Xian a little envious. Eat and sleep, sleep and play, play and eat... The little kitten's life is so comfortable.

Maybe I should feed it two meals less, so that it can understand the hardships of life and the misfortunes of fate.

While his body was full of spiritual energy, Gao Xian circulated the Five Elements Qi for thirty-six cycles, which took half an hour.

Without an accurate timing tool, Gao Xian felt that he was now able to practice the Five Elements Qi more smoothly.

This is mainly due to the assistance of Sister Lan.

He took out the Fengyue Baojian and saw that his Five Elements Power had increased a little, and he felt very happy.

After adjusting his state, Gao Xian went to the pharmacy next door.

The small courtyard where he lived had three main rooms, one of which was a bedroom, half a living room, and half a kitchen. The remaining room was a warehouse for storing medicinal materials.

The alchemy room is a small ear room next to the main room, and there is an alchemy furnace in the room.

The alchemy furnace is considered a first-class magic weapon, and it is actually quite valuable. This thing is very heavy, and it is fixed on a brick platform, so it is not easy to move it.

In addition, there are not many alchemists in Pegasus who can use the furnace. Even if someone steals the furnace, it will be difficult to dispose of it.

On the contrary, medicinal herbs were light and easy to carry, so Gao Xian could only put them in the main room.

After checking the medicinal materials, Gao Xian wanted to sigh. The original owner was really courting death by using up all the medicinal materials for Bailu Dan.

His alchemy skills had improved greatly, but they couldn't make up for such a huge gap!

I can only refine a batch of medicinal pills and send them over first, and delay for a while. I have to think of a way to replenish the consumed medicinal materials...

Select the medicinal materials, steam and dry them, grind them and mix them, then put them back into the furnace for refining.

It took Gao Xian three days to refine a furnace of Qi-rejuvenating pills.

I rolled the pills manually and got more than 200 pills.

After three busy days, Gao Xian decided to go out and adjust his state. He put two deer antlers in his pocket and went to visit Lao Wang next door.

Old Wang's house is even more shabby. There are only two main rooms in the small courtyard. The walls are cracked and the tiles are broken. If it rains heavily, it will definitely leak.

The courtyard was paved with a few bluestone slabs to form an entrance and exit path. In one corner, there was a toilet without a door, which looked very transparent.

Although Gao Xian didn't have mysophobia, he didn't dare to look at it for too long.

Lao Wang was napping on the bed. He yawned and said unhappily, "What are you doing here, kid?"

Gao Xian encouraged himself in his heart: "It's just a way to make a living, it's not shameful. What I'm selling is not fake medicine..."

After making psychological adjustments, Gao Xian showed Lao Wang a reserved smile: "Daoyou, have you heard of Lujiaosan?"

Thank you brothers and sisters for your reward~Bow 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
