After handing over the spirit stone, the manager sent Mu Yao out of the business with a smile, then turned back to take stock of the harvest.
How did Mu Yao know that the second-level and third-level spiritual herbs he picked casually in the Warcraft Mountain were almost extinct in the outside world. Even his two masters didn't know.
I don't even know the name, but I can still tell the grade.
But it doesn't matter, Mu Yao still has a lot in his hands anyway.
Now Mu Yao has a lot of money in his hands, plus the spiritual stones he got from the things he just sold, the total is only about two thousand. Now he has spent nearly five hundred directly. The inn also costs money. It seems that two thousand is more than ordinary people.
There were many, but Mu Yao didn't know that that inn was the most expensive in the entire Jumo City.
Before leaving, I was afraid that he would have to sell some things to have some leftover food. But what Mu Yao didn't expect was that the next time he came over, he would not be selling these things.
Mu Yao did not delay after coming out. He went directly back to the inn, locked the door, and did not start practicing. Instead, he started learning alchemy. There was still a month left, and he could practice here for half a month before going on his way.
One month is enough time.
The main reason is that the teleportation array will be opened in half a month. Otherwise, it can only be arranged according to the teleportation array time. I can't afford the teleportation fee alone. It seems that I still need to accumulate more spiritual stones.
This demon-rejecting city is filled with more spiritual energy than outside the city. This is because there is a spiritual gathering array in the city, which is turned on all year round and spreads spiritual energy into the city. Otherwise, it would not charge so much entry fees, nor would it attract nearby monks to live and practice.
.
This is exactly what Mu Yao wants. Practicing here is indeed much faster than the outside world, but now he is concentrating on reading the introductory alchemy books he bought before, as well as the books about alchemy obtained by the Qingming Sect, and
Fortunately, there is an elixir prescription, otherwise Mu Yao would have spent a large amount of spiritual stones to buy it.
But there are no high-level elixir recipes in this sect. After reaching the fourth-level elixir recipe, there is only one for the fifth-level elixir, only three for the fourth-level elixir, and one is incomplete. As for Mu Yao, he did not go there.
Look, it’s Mu Yao who doesn’t know how precious this thing is.
What Mu Yao is most concerned about now is the first level. He must learn to refine the first level elixir at least in the next half month. He must take the test to enter the sect in order to be foolproof. This time he does not intend to expose too much of his strength.
Because his own powerful martial arts requires powerful weapons, and once the weapons are taken out, many people covet them, mainly because of his own cultivation level, which makes others greedy.
So it's better to keep a low profile. Mu Yao doesn't want to waste any more time on these things.
Mu Yao sat on the bed and read the introductory book on alchemy. The introduction part said:
If you want to enter the alchemy path, you must first know the herbs. This is the entry point.
Now that you know all the herbs, you need to get the furnace cauldron, which is the elixir tool.
When the alchemy weapon is in hand, it needs the help of fire, and this is the auxiliary one.
There are countless vegetation crystals, each with different effects. Following the laws of heaven and earth and the principle of the five elements mutually reinforcing each other, they can have infinite changes. They can gather their partial attributes to achieve the greatest miraculous effect. Arrange and combine according to their effective order, which is the elixir recipe.
The herbs are on the side, and the fire is integrated into one, melting into a liquid, condensing the gas and controlling it, and gathering together to form an elixir.
Therefore, if you want to refine elixirs, pharmacology, elixir furnaces, flames, and elixir prescriptions are all indispensable.
This is also the reason why Mu Yao bought the alchemy furnace. In fact, Mu Yao knows this even if he doesn't read this. He has never eaten pork and has never seen a pig run away. At least he is someone who has seen alchemy.
So what Mu Yao lacks now is the method, to see how to melt the vegetation crystals into liquid, how to condense the Qi and manipulate it, and how to gather the liquid into elixir.
This book is an introductory book for alchemy, and it will naturally record these things later. As for what he needs, Mu Yao has already prepared everything.
The flames include the Pure Heart Lotus Fire, the Yellow Level of the Alchemy Furnace, the first-level body-breaking elixir, the second-level gathering elixir, the Great Return elixir, etc. There are various elixirs for replenishing spiritual energy, healing, and breakthroughs.
There are some, but they are of little value to Mu Yao now. There are also third-level foundation-building pills.
It's a pity that there is no fourth-level golden elixir. In the future, if you want to break through the golden elixir realm, you will have to look for elixirs or prescriptions.
However, I thought that I didn't know if there were any bottles and jars that I collected from Qing Ming. The key is that I don't know them. Now I feel that my knowledge is too shallow. If I enter the sect in the future, I must spread the word.
own basic knowledge.
Now for the knowledge of Baicao, I need to put it aside for a while, and then I can make up for it later when I find the corresponding books.
The next step was how to melt vegetation crystals. Then Mu Yao began to carefully study the methods of melting wood and refining stones in the book. The two items cannot be treated the same.
This is a real technical job, and it cannot be learned in a few moments. Otherwise, this booklet would not be so thick and explain it so clearly.
Mu Yao studied it carefully, but he discovered that one of the most useful things is the use of the power of the soul. Yes, the strength, amount, and degree of control of the power of the soul during the entire alchemy process can determine the outcome of the alchemy.
Success or not. When seeing this, Mu Yao felt that he was really destined to make alchemy.
First of all, I was sick when I was young, so I only know a little more about herbal medicine than the average person. Although I don’t know much about spiritual herbs, I still have some basic knowledge.
Secondly, my mental strength is stronger than that of others, which is not one or two levels higher.
Furthermore, he met the Pure Heart Lotus Fire, which is rare but cannot be found. This alone is enough to drive people crazy.
Also, although this elixir recipe is not a particularly high-level elixir recipe, I have obtained so many elixir recipes that I would not be able to find even if I turned over the entire Demon Rejection City. It is a sect's collection.
It had been a whole day since Mu Yao had been reading behind closed doors. He had read through all the basic alchemy-related books over and over again. It was time to try it out on his own. Let's start with the simplest method of smelting plant crystals.
One problem here is that smelting requires flames, but there is not much introduction about flames. Mu Yao has the Pure Heart Lotus Fire in his hand at this time, but he knows very little about other flames, but it doesn't matter.
Anyway, I don’t have any in my hand, just having a kind of flame in my hand is enough.
The only problem is that this Pure Heart Lotus Fire cannot be used in public, otherwise it will be recognized by powerful people, and then it will be in trouble again, and it may even lead to death. In desperation,
, Mu Yao thought of his master, Venerable Chiyang, and wanted to ask what the solution was.
"Well, that's a problem. Someone will definitely recognize this fire. You can only use it when no one is around, and you can't reveal it until you have no strength. Unfortunately, you are not in the golden elixir realm yet, so you can't use elixir fire.
Otherwise, you can still cover it up. If you really can't, you can catch a monster to get the beast fire, but it's just that water from far away can't quench your thirst. And it's not like you can find a monster with beast fire, at least.
We haven't encountered one in the past two years. Even if we encounter one, we may not be able to get one. Their strength is generally three points stronger than those without beast fire." said the Venerable Chiyang.
"Oh, it turns out there are so many kinds of flames. These sound like they are all flames obtained from outside. Do I have my own flames? Can't I also use my spiritual power to create flames? Can't I use them?"
"It can be used, but it consumes a lot of money. It is not enough to refine a furnace of elixirs, so few people use it. However, after reaching the golden elixir realm, the golden elixir condensed in the monk's body will produce elixir fire, just like a monster of war produces a beast.
It's the same as fire, but it's stronger and weaker. Under normal circumstances, when used by people who don't know how to control it, it's quite weak. However, alchemists know how to control the power of the soul. The control of spiritual power is more precise, and less power is wasted.
The longer it lasts, the more powerful it will become. Generally, it is not a problem to refine elixirs that are lower than your own realm. You can also use spiritual power to create flames at the foundation-building realm, but the amount of burning spiritual energy is huge, and you cannot bear it.
It consumes so much. But if you honestly choose to refine a simple elixir, I think you should be able to do it. However, after refining the elixir, you will be weak for a while due to the exhaustion of spiritual power."
"Okay, I'll know after I get familiar with the process first and then test it. I hope I can successfully refine the first-level elixir, which is probably enough to pass the test." Mu Yao said helplessly.
Then Mu Yao stopped worrying about these things, and first tried to smelt the herbs with the Pure Heart Lotus Fire. First, he took out a first-level elixir, Sanyang Grass, which is the main ingredient of the Body-Breaking Pill.
There are quite a few.
The seeds bought that day had long been planted in Yao'er's space. Yao'er's recovery speed in this city with rich spiritual energy was obviously faster than before, and he was recovering quietly and without any noise, as if a human monk was meditating, bathing.
Yao didn't bother either.
The seeds in the space take root and sprout quickly at once, and the growth rate is many times faster than the outside world. According to Mu Yao's observation, it is at least ten times more. For ordinary flowers and plants, as well as herbs below the first level, the effect is particularly significant.
This provided Mu Yao with a sufficient supply of elixirs to learn alchemy. It seemed that it would be difficult not to learn alchemy. Mu Yao couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Place the herbs in the alchemy furnace, follow the method recorded in the book, and then draw the pure heart lotus fire above the Dantian from your palms, place it at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, and slowly activate it to gradually increase the temperature. This process may seem simple, but it is extremely
It consumes mental energy and will turn the spiritual grass into ashes if you are not careful.
Therefore, generally an alchemist needs an absolutely quiet place when refining elixirs, and does not want to be disturbed by others. Of course, if the alchemist is of high skill and the elixirs he is refining are familiar to him, it does not mean that he cannot refining them in a noisy environment.
But this will also have an impact.
It's just that the alchemist is confident enough to allow this. For a beginner like Mu Yao, as long as someone disturbs and distracts him, the step of refining the elixir will directly fail, not to mention what happens next.
I have practiced this step of not refining the spiritual grass several times, but I have never succeeded in it. The main reason is that the inn environment is too noisy.
