"Well... you can just leave it here. But these probably won't be enough... you can go work harder."
After hesitating again and again, Li Xuan changed his gesture and pointed at the pile of herbs beside him.
"Giggle"
Following Li Xuan's instructions, Little Skeleton put down the herbs in his arms, then stood up and walked away, preparing to look for the same herbs again.
Seeing the little skeleton walking away, Li Xuan began to refine the eighth pot of Ji Ji Dan...
Light a fire, preheat the alchemy furnace, add herbs, release Qi, protect the liquid, and control the fusion of the liquid...
"Bang..."
In the last step, Li Xuan became anxious, causing a slight explosion of the furnace. The eighth pot of Solid Foundation Pills...successfully refined five waste pills.
"..."
In response, Li Xuan didn't say anything, he just poured out the waste elixir and prepared to try again.
Refining alchemy is the same as practicing cultivation. Remember to be anxious and impatient. Only by summing up experience from failures can you make steady progress!
Soon, as Li Xuan failed again and again, the herbs that Little Skeleton found were piled higher and higher.
"Okay, no need to search for now. You can rest, these herbs will be enough for me to use for a long time."
Seeing the herbs piled up into a "hill" around him, Li Xuan stopped the little skeleton and set off again.
"Giggle..."
Following the order, the little skeleton returned to its original position and began to crush the new waste elixir...
"laugh……"
"Bang..."
"call……"
As Li Xuan kept trying again, time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sky was getting dark and the night was coming.
Looking up at the crescent moon in the sky, and then at the herbs piled around him, Li Xuan said nothing.
When Qi was about to slump, Li Xuan stopped refining elixirs and began to restore Qi.
Could it be... that I am not strong enough? When he closed his eyes and concentrated, Li Xuan couldn't help but ask himself.
Every time he failed, Li Xuan always almost succeeded! But every time, there were always various reasons to hinder himself...
No, even if your cultivation level is not enough, you can't fake your experience in alchemy, right? And as such a simple elixir, Gu Ji Dan has nothing to do with your cultivation level!
To put it bluntly, as long as you are a monk in the Qi refining stage, as long as you can master the control of Qi machine, you can refine the Foundation Pill!
In my previous life, I was an ancestor who ascended to the throne in half a step! I can’t say that my alchemy experience is first-rate, but I definitely have the confidence to be among the best!
In this life, I have developed the body of Xuanyin again! The control of Qi movement is far beyond human understanding! But...
"Could it be!!!"
Excluding his own reasons, Li Xuan instantly thought of other possibilities! That is... the problem of herbal medicine!
This question does not only refer to the dosage of herbal medicines, but... there are mutually exclusive, redundant, or missing ingredients!!
Thinking of this, Li Xuan couldn't care less about recovering his energy! He opened his eyes and started to look through the herbs.
"It tastes sweet, has a neutral nature, nourishes the liver and kidneys...this is no problem."
"It's warm in nature, vaguely bitter, and the pulse is firm and free...this is no problem."
"It tastes sweet, bitter, slightly cold, clears away heat and cools the blood...this is no problem."
Every time he tasted a herbal medicine, Li Xuan would comment on its medicinal properties and functions. Compared with his rough judgment in the morning, he was more cautious.
until……
"Bitter taste, sweet and slightly pungent, very cold, good for improving eyesight and improving eyesight... eh?! Great cold?!!!"
Taking out this herb from his mouth, Li Xuan was startled. He thought that a sweet and slightly pungent herb...how could it have the properties of a great cold?!
"..."
The reason has been found... This herb is in the alchemy furnace, and its properties conflict with other herbs! Even if it is fused with other herbal extracts, the medicinal properties will be mutually exclusive, leading to the final failure of the alchemy!
"well……"
Holding this "culprit", Li Xuan sighed with a bitter smile. He thought that the hard work of this day was in vain...
Looking around, Li Xuan found that he could still vaguely find his way through the moonlight. If that's the case... then let's find other herbs to replace it now!
He just did it, dropped the herbs in his hand, and then walked away.
Half an hour later... after selecting and selecting, Li Xuan finally found a substitute from many herbs!
"It tastes bitter, sweet, slightly pungent, slightly cold, and can benefit the essence and improve eyesight...this is it!!"
Pinch of the herbs in his hand, Li Xuan's expression became full of energy as he spoke.
Yes... After a day of failure, we are about to succeed. Who can not be happy?!
Return to the original position, light a fire, and preheat the alchemy furnace...
As dozens of medicinal liquids merged in the alchemy furnace, Li Xuan smiled happily!
Next, what Li Xuan has to do is to activate the water in the fusion liquid to condense it into a pill shape!
"Huh...huh..."
Release the gas machine protection solution with one hand, and reach for the fire source with the other hand to stimulate the fire! With both hands, the water in the solution evaporates rapidly, turning into white mist above the stove top and dispersing.
After counting the interest...
"Buzz~"
"Ding ding ding..."
Along with the slight vibration on the top of the alchemy furnace, several crisp sounds came from the furnace!
"It's done! Haha, it's done!!"
Hearing this kind of movement, Li Xuan knew that the Solid Foundation Pill was finished!
Li Xuan opened the top of the furnace and poured out the elixirs in the furnace eagerly.
Under the moonlight, the six golden and round elixirs on the leaves rolled back and forth... Judging from the medicinal fragrance and the quality of the finished elixirs, these six solid foundation elixirs are of top quality!
Putting down the alchemy furnace, Li Xuan carefully picked up one, put it under his nose, sniffed it, and then threw it into his mouth after confirming that it was correct...
"Wow..."
As soon as the Gu Ji Dan hit his mouth, it turned into a mouthful of sweetness and flowed down his throat into his stomach. With his eyes closed and concentrated, Li Xuan quickly led the Qi machine to his stomach and began to absorb the power of the medicine.
After a few breaths, the power of the medicine spread into his limbs and bones. The instant feeling of comfort made Li Xuan involuntarily raise the corners of his mouth.
That's right...that's right! This feeling is exactly the Guji Dan!
From the beginning of the identification of the herbs, Li Xuan has been "beating the drum" in his heart, wondering whether the effect of the formed Solid Foundation Pill is as good as in the previous life. But at this moment, the Solid Foundation Pill condensed from the herbs of this world has handed over a perfect answer sheet.
!
No matter from which point of view, the two solid foundation pills are comparable!
An hour later, Li Xuan opened his eyes after absorbing the power of the medicine.
After trying to squeeze his fists, Li Xuan felt that the energy in his body was full and he had endless power!
Under concentration, Li Xuan even observed that the meridians had become even tighter and tougher! Qi flowed through them, and their smoothness became even higher!
Standing up, Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction. Looking at the alchemy furnace in front of him, he felt extremely confident!
Body Tempering Pill, Marrow Cleansing Pill, Yuan Yuan Restoring Pill... Thinking of the various pills from his previous life, Li Xuan felt that the journey of cultivation was not that slow.
After getting excited, Li Xuan bent down and wanted to pick it up... Huh?! Where is my Gu Ji Dan?!
Looking at the emptiness on the leaves, Li Xuan's heart suddenly tightened! I'm afraid...!
"Small...skeleton...bone!!!"
While turning back, Li Xuan roared word for word!
Sure enough... at this moment, a touch of golden color caught Li Xuan's eyes on the originally dark bones of the little skeleton!
"!!!"
Raising his hand, Li Xuan pointed at the small skeleton tremblingly, and opened his mouth for a long time without saying anything else.
After all... it was my own "negligence" that caused the remaining five Pills to "die"... If I had known this result earlier, I would have ordered in advance that you are not allowed to "eat" these five pills!
Helpless, Li Xuan put down his hand.
Fortunately, as the lowest-level elixir, Gu Ji Dan uses the most common herbs. There are many plants in the forest, so there is no need to worry about not finding the herbs...
After calming down, Li Xuan walked towards the grass and continued to search for herbs to make a new foundation pill.
A few hours later... with the clanging sound coming from the alchemy furnace, Li Xuan poured out the new Solid Foundation Pill. At this time, the sky was already clear and it was morning.
On the leaves, many Foundation-Consolidating Pills were piled up to form a small "Elixir Mountain". This was because Li Xuan was afraid that there would not be enough Foundation-Consolidating Pills... so he made so many in advance.
He is now in the early stage of Qi refining and has reached the completion of the Xuanyin body. In addition, Kailin is now in the solid stage and will also enter the Qi refining stage in the future. I don’t know how many solid foundation pills will be consumed in the future... Li Xuan, who is unable to determine the number, can only
The more preparation you can make, the more the better.
As for the little skeleton... due to Li Xuan's order, he could only stare helplessly at the golden and round Gu Ji Dan in a daze, not knowing what was thinking in its empty head at this time.
After all the herbs around him were used up, Li Xuan stood up and stretched.
"Gululu..."
After the mind relaxes, the "side effects" in the body begin to cause trouble.
Yesterday, I was busy looking for herbs and refining elixirs, and I didn't eat all day. As a result, Li Xuan's stomach kept making noises in protest.
After rubbing his suffocated stomach, Li Xuan left after a round of inspection, intending to catch some rabbits to satisfy his hunger. Before leaving, Li Xuan did not forget to ask the little skeleton to take good care of these solid foundation pills, and strictly prohibited himself from secretly "eating" them! He also said that he was very
Will be back soon.
"Giggle..."
Seeing the little skeleton nodding, Li Xuan left "with doubts".
After a while, Li Xuan came back with three rabbits. He started roasting them on the fire that had not been extinguished last night...
After eating and drinking enough, Li Xuan packed up many of the Foundation-Consolidating Pills with leaves. Worried that the Foundation-Consolidating Pills would be squeezed and deformed inside, Li Xuan also deliberately tied the leaves as loosely and quickly as possible.
After packing, Li Xuan waved to the little skeleton, gesturing for it to come closer.
Pinch off the dark medicinal residue covering the little skeleton, and Li Xuanjing felt it.
"???"
Strange...the potency of the medicine residue is much smaller, and the remaining potency is almost negligible.
You know, even if it is a waste elixir, it still contains some medicinal power. Logically speaking, it shouldn't disappear, right?
After hesitating for a moment, Li Xuan took off the golden medicinal residue from its bones, which was the medicinal residue of the top-grade solid foundation pill.
"!!!" The potency of the medicine inside is the same as before! There is not much left!
Could it be that...the little skeleton could really absorb the medicinal power?! In an instant, Li Xuan was startled by the speculation in his heart...
Staring at the small skeleton, Li Xuan felt that this "child" was like a bottomless pit! It seemed like it could absorb anything...
"hiss……"
Taking a breath of cold air, Li Xuan didn't know what to say. This... should be considered one of the "weirds" in this world.
Shaking his head, Li Xuan cleared his mind of thoughts and decided to send it back to the world of the dead first.
However, at this moment, Li Xuan was looking forward to how far the little skeleton would grow in the end.
