Chen Xia didn't reply. He quietly called back the two flying swords and stopped them above the cave.

The big yellow dog sat cross-legged on the white jade futon, closed his eyes, and showed no intention of moving.

After so many years of observation, Chen Xia discovered something very interesting.

The big yellow dog is particularly fond of things that can warm the soul, such as the original Jingtan Lotus and this white jade futon. The big yellow dog loves it very much, and will come to meditate on the white jade futon every once in a while.

Although Chen Xia didn't know what the big yellow dog was doing, he looked at it with an expression of enjoyment.

Maybe this is spiritual happiness.

Chen Xia didn't pay much attention, and slowly stood up from his half-lying body, planning to go to the Tiange to take a stroll and look up alchemy books or prescriptions.

His alchemy skills have now reached a bottleneck. If he wants to improve further, he can only improve in other areas.

For example, replace cooking elixirs with refining elixirs.

That means replacing the iron pot with a real alchemy stove.

Thinking of this, Chen Xia felt a little bit reluctant to give up. He is a relatively nostalgic person, so he felt a bit reluctant to give up this iron pot all of a sudden.

After all, this iron pot helped him fry a lot of elixirs, and it was hard work without credit. Chen Xia really couldn't do it.

So he put the plan to replace the iron pot at the end and made other changes first.

For example, first optimize the recipe, take a look at the recipe experience left by the predecessors, and learn from it.

In addition, he can also systematically learn the knowledge of alchemy, which will also be of great benefit to him in making alchemy in the future.

It is said in the book that an alchemist only pays attention to three points when refining elixirs.

…

Danlu, Danfang, technique.

Skillful techniques can make up for the deficiencies in the other two points and forcefully raise the level of the elixir.

As for the description of techniques, there are five types.

Entry-level, sophisticated, perfect, made in heaven.

There is no record of the last type in the book, only one sentence is used to roughly describe it.

"When the elixir is completed, the world will be turned upside down and the sun and moon will lose light."

It's quite impressive, but I don't know if I should take it seriously.

And the book also said that each alchemist's method is different, and what matters is the effect when the elixir is formed.

Even if you use your feet to refine the elixir, as long as it can attract strange phenomena from heaven and earth when the elixir is completed, it is a perfect technique.

On the other hand, even if your techniques are gorgeous, preparations are sufficient, and the process is fancy, but the elixir you refine does not have even a hint of Danze, then you are just starting out.

The technique does not depend on anything else, it all depends on the effect of the elixir.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Chen Xia using an iron pot to cook elixirs. As long as the effects of the elixirs he concoct can reach a perfect level, then he is a master of alchemy.

Regarding the classification of alchemy masters, the book is also very straightforward.

There are five types of elixirs in the world, which are actually not much different from the classification of magic weapons.

The lowest level is considered an entry-level elixir, which can slightly improve strength, restore Qi and blood, stimulate the origin, etc., and is suitable for monks in the Mahayana realm and below.

The middle-level Tao medicine has some thresholds, mainly because it is more difficult to obtain. You must have a good alchemist to have a stable source. It is suitable for monks in the sea-turning realm and below.

The high-end ones are called great medicines. At this level, the elixirs waiting for me already have the incredible effect of extending life.

There was once a powerful quasi-emperor who, because he was a powerful elixir, directly practiced a pot of immortality medicine and ate it as jelly beans, one a day. He also continued to improve the efficacy of the medicine and eliminate the body's drug resistance, and he just died.

The powerful emperor of his generation.

This is the horror of great medicine. It can kill the great emperor with the appearance of a quasi-emperor.

The top level is the Imperial Medicine. This kind of pill is very difficult to find. It is possible that not even one of it can be found in a lifetime.

Because the effect of this imperial medicine is so incredible that it is often a real elixir that can make the emperor live forever!

According to the records in the book, there has never been an imperial medicine in this world, and there is a line of small words at the back.

[If you can refine the imperial medicine, or have any clues, please contact me quickly. I am at the seventh star in the realm, waiting for you to come and explore]

Chen Xia frowned and continued to read, and there was another line of annotations.

[The alchemy is to the alchemist, just like the uniform is to the uniform, the shit is to the dog, and the toilet is to the beetle. The more refined the better. If you want to have a customized alchemy, come to the seventh star of the realm to find me. 】

Chen Xia's frown deepened. She always felt that this book was not very serious, so she opened the pages that she hadn't noticed and took a look.

"How the elixir is made" - Wang Yangzi.

really.

It's old Bidden again.

Chen Xia shook his head and planned to put the book at the bottom of the bookshelf so that other disciples would not see it, otherwise it would be misleading.

"Hey, you also like to read Wang Yangzi's books?"

A surprised voice came from the side, it was a short old man with a mustache, holding the book "Alchemy: From Getting Started to Burial" in his hand.

And it was the one that Chen Xia had hidden in the back of the bookshelf.

"Ha, just take a look." Chen Xia put the book on the bookshelf and replied.

"Then you are really discerning!" The short old man gave a thumbs up and continued brightly.

"Wang Yangzi is my most respected alchemy master. If I hadn't been able to get away these past few hundred years, I would have gone to the realm to discuss alchemy with Wang Yangzi."

The little old man was very excited as he spoke. He looked at Chen Xia and asked curiously: "Are you also an alchemist?"

Chen Xia thought for a while and said, "In a certain respect, he is more like a cook."

After all, he used an iron pot.

The little old man was stunned, then waved his hand and said: "It's okay, as long as you are determined, even a cook can become an alchemist."

"Okay." Chen Xia nodded, and the atmosphere was a little quiet.

The two of them looked at each other with their big eyes facing each other.

"Are you from the human race?" The little old man suddenly asked again.

"Yeah." Chen Xia nodded.

The little old man's expression suddenly became excited, and he nodded vigorously, "Okay, okay, we don't see many human races nowadays. I remember that the last time the human race came to Cangtian Sword Sea was the last time. It's a pity..."

"What's a pity?" Chen Xia was a little curious.

The little old man looked a little regretful, "It's a pity that we couldn't defeat those ancient species and ran away midway. But there is nothing we can do about it. After all, the average talent of the human race is indeed a bit weak among all races."

"However, there is one thing about the human race that other races cannot compare with. The human race has the highest degree of compatibility with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. This leads to the fact that the average talent of the human race is weak, but it can spawn monsters, the upper limit of which can reach the emperor's kind of monsters."

There is a great emperor of the human race in the sea of ​​​​swords in the sky.

The little old man clasped his hands behind his back, hunched over, and sighed: "It's a pity that such a figure has not appeared in the Cangtian Sword Sea in the past few thousand years. Maybe the human emperor will not appear again until the next great world."

After the little old man sighed, he turned his eyes to Chen Xia and continued to ask: "Are you also a disciple of Cangtian Jianhai?"

"Yeah." Chen Xia's reply was very brief, and she basically didn't have much to say.

The little old man looked at Chen Xia carefully and said, "Cangtian Jianhai is a major sect in this star field and can be considered a giant, so the disciple's talent must be extraordinary."

"Even if you can't defeat those ancient species, don't be discouraged. I couldn't defeat them back then, and I've become an elder now."

"Practice is not about fighting and killing. You can also make elixirs."

"When you become a master of alchemy, you can use the elixir and let others fight for us."
