The fourth thousand three hundred and fifty-ninth chapters condensate the furnace with fire
When Zuo Feng faced a humid environment on the left and a very dry environment on the right, he had to make a decision in a very short period of time.
And with Zuo Feng's personality, he would never just have a general goal, or decide his next direction just for a medicinal herb.
There are actually many herbs that grow in this kind of environment and are adapted to the dry environment, but the herbaceous flower is definitely one of the top ones among the many suitable choices.
Not only because the Mysterious Flower has good medicinal properties, but also because where the Mysterious Flower grows, there is a high chance of digging up flame crystals. This Flame Crystal is Zuo Feng's second target.
For Zuo Feng, if he activates the technique of Yunlang Palm, he can strip the aura in his body into single attributes, especially the auras of fire and wind attributes.
However, with Zuo Feng's current level and physical condition, even the fire-attribute aura that was stripped away could not be used to assist him in using the medicine-mixing skills.
Therefore, if Zuo Feng wants to use the method of mixing medicine, he must find another way, and the only option left is Yanjing.
Under normal circumstances, mixing medicines basically does not require the use of any spiritual energy. Everything is completed by relying on various complex processes and precise control of the medicines.
It is precisely because of this that Zhuang Yu, who had no cultivation ability, was able to complete the practice of mixing medicines and make various medicine powders.
But this does not mean that the method of mixing medicine cannot be completed with the help of spiritual energy, or that with the cooperation of spiritual energy, the skill of mixing medicine will be destroyed. On the contrary, if spiritual energy only cooperates, the medicine mixing will only be improved.
Although the combination of spiritual energy can improve the effect and efficiency of mixing medicine, there are only a few medicine masters who can truly combine spiritual energy and medicine mixing techniques.
There are no more than three people who can do it, and even Zhuang Yu is not in this category. Even if Zhuang Yu can reach the top three in the medicine family for simple medicine mixing skills, she cannot practice it herself.
, so it is impossible to apply the mastered spiritual energy to the preparation of mixed medicines.
Zuo Feng learned the method of mixing medicine from Zhuang Yu. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to master the method of using spiritual energy together. However, by chance, he met Yaoxun in Luancheng, and the two of them formed a friendship.
A fate.
As for Yao Xun, he not only recognized Zuo Feng's ability and talent in refining medicine, but also admired Zuo Feng's character and originally wanted to recruit him into the Yao family.
When it was later learned that Zuo Feng's basic medicine refining skills were taught by Zhuang Yu himself, Yao Xun willingly taught Zuo Feng the medicine mixing and the Yao family's advanced medicine refining skills.
In Yao Xun's eyes, although Zuo Feng did not explicitly join the Yao family, he was equivalent to his close disciple in refining medicine.
Originally, the method of mixing medicines, even using spiritual energy, still had a more complete set of methods and refining sequences. In the current situation, Zuo Feng had no conditions to follow the procedures step by step, and could only act urgently.
Among the many medicinal materials in his hand, the Mysterious Flower was the last one he got, but now he was the first to take action on the stamens of the Mysterious Flower.
However, if you are a discerning person, as long as you see the Mysterious Flower in Zuo Feng's hand, you will immediately understand why he chose to deal with the stamens of the Mysterious Flower first.
When just picked, the stamens are not only a little hard, but also very bright in color. You can even see an oily sheen on the surface of the stamens.
But just in this moment, the surface gloss of the stamens not only became dim, but also began to become soft. This is of course related to the gray smoke just emitted by the stamens, but it is the stamens of the stamens, if there is no special container
, is also very difficult to preserve.
In this case, Zuo Feng certainly did not hesitate and attacked the stamens of the Mysterious Flower first. After being stimulated by him, the spiritual energy was directly injected into the flame crystal, and traces of flames also sprang out from it.
It's just that this flame is a little special. After it emerges, it seems to turn into countless threads, winding towards the stamen in Zuo Feng's hand.
Zuo Feng just lowered his head and glanced at the flame in his hand, and the expression on his face relaxed a little. Because Zuo Feng could clearly feel that the flame released by the flame crystal became very obedient in his hand and could follow his own wishes.
The changing form of ideology, and the magnitude of the heat.
Before this, Zuo Feng didn't know whether the flames released by the flame crystal could reach the level of being able to command like an arm. Especially since his current cultivation level was only in the middle stage of bone refining, which was really difficult for any alchemist.
A little too low.
As a result, when the flames turned into threads and allowed Zuo Feng to control them at will, Zuo Feng immediately realized that the control of the flames mainly relied on mental power. As for the strength of cultivation and aura, it was actually just an auxiliary.
Even though Zuo Feng's current cultivation level is only at the fifth level of the middle stage of bone refining, he already possesses Nian Hai. This is a condition that even Yin Wuliu cannot possess, or in other words, except Zuo Feng, others
After entering this space, the main soul consciousness cannot meet the special conditions.
At such a low level, Zuo Feng obtained the sea of thoughts and the power of thoughts. This kind of pure cultivation of thoughts can be called a miracle in the entire Kunxuan Continent.
Originally, Zuo Feng was worried about how to complete the mixing of changing steps and some techniques in such a bad situation. Now that the control of the flame is no longer a problem, many problems have been solved at once.
I saw those thread-like flames, as if they were alive. They were swaying and entangled around the stamens.
If you observe carefully, you will find that the thin flame line is actually a little distance from the stamen, and is not directly attached to it.
If there is an intermediate alchemist or above here, he will be surprised to find that the flame threads controlled by Zuo Feng are directly condensed into a medicine furnace.
Without a medicine furnace at hand, Zuo Feng simply relied on his subtle control of the flame to condense it into a flame medicine furnace. I believe that ordinary alchemists, even if they can think of such a method, do not have such ability.
Even with such ability, it is difficult to handle the medicine just right.
Usually, there is a lot of knowledge involved in the process of handling drugs before mixing them, and there are also many things to pay attention to.
Because mixing medicine is not an ordinary refining medicine, it does not condense the medicine through refining, but uses a special "mixing" to achieve the desired effect of the medicine.
Therefore, most of the drug treatment before mixing actually replaces the process of refining the medicine. Now Zuo Feng not only has to complete the drug treatment before mixing, but also needs to use new methods, which is simply a huge challenge.
This is also the third reason why Zuo Feng uses Mimuhua as the first drug to deal with. The stamens of Mimuhua are the most fire-resistant. In other words, it likes high temperature and dryness. This point comes from looking for Mimuhua.
The process can be seen.
Now Zuo Feng had to try a new method, and he had to add the method of condensing the medicine furnace with flames, so it was most appropriate to start with the stamens of the Mysterious Flower at this time.
As the medicine furnace constructed of flame threads is completely formed, the temperature inside is also rising sharply, and this is exactly the effect Zuo Feng needs to achieve.
The method of processing medicinal materials by mixing medicine is relatively complicated, that is, it requires many processes to remove the useless parts of the medicinal materials and at the same time bring out the essence.
Therefore, methods such as drying and steaming are also very common when processing medicines. However, even the steaming process that can be seen every day in the kitchen will have many changes when it comes to processing medicines, and there are too many subtleties that need to be paid attention to.
When steaming at high temperature, in addition to temperature, another function is to apply pressure to the medicine. Applying pressure at high temperature can remove excess parts of some medicinal materials, and in some cases can stimulate the essence inside.
Of course, Zuo Feng didn't have time to dry it now. He directly completed the drying and steaming process with the help of the fire-line medicine stove in front of him.
The stamens originally showed no change in the high temperature, but as the water in them evaporated little by little, it began to become harder and harder.
By controlling the flame, Zuo Feng could observe the subtle changes in the stamens in the flame anytime and anywhere. Especially when he discovered that the stamens were gradually becoming harder, he began to gradually reduce the heat released by the flames.
However, Zuo Feng had no intention of taking the stamen out. Instead, he began to adjust the flame and squeeze the dry air inside towards the stamen.
In this way, Zuo Feng simulated the process of steaming medicine at high temperature, but when he completed the "steaming" process, he still did not forget to remove the internal moisture.
In just a few blinks, the flower stamens had already changed. In addition to the faint water vapor being "squeezed out" and then disappearing under the high temperature, there were also fine gray dust that slowly "drilled" out of the flower stamens.
came out.
Seeing this change, Zuo Feng was very excited, but just as he showed joy, his palms trembled unconsciously. Because he clearly felt that the stamens in his palms were showing cracks, and there were also cracks.
Debris is falling.
Feeling slightly startled, Zuo Feng hurriedly adjusted the flames to keep a greater distance from the stamen. But even though Zuo Feng reacted quickly, part of the surface of the stamen still shattered and fell off.
Seeing this, Zuo Feng casually scratched his fingertips with his nails, and then flicked a few drops of blood onto the stamens. The extremely dry stamens immediately absorbed the blood droplets the moment they came into contact with them.
It was at the moment when the blood droplets entered the stamens that the cracks on the surface of the stamens stopped spreading. After a few more pieces fell off, the stamens finally stopped breaking apart on their own.
In just a moment, almost a quarter of the stamens were broken and turned into powder.
