Every night, Lu Dong would come to Longxiquan to practice, and so would Zhuang Xiaoman.
And tonight, besides practicing, there is another important thing.
That’s when it’s finally time for the first alchemy to come out!
Lu Dong held two 5-meter-long sticks in his hands as "chopsticks" and was about to pinch the Golden Dragon Cauldron out of the Fire of the Earth's Core.
These two sticks were the reason why he went to Luo Feng again to see if he could find "that thing" in the ruins that Luo Sang said.
As a result, "that thing" was not found, but he found these two sticks.
He didn't know what material the sticks were made of, but since the explosion failed to destroy them, Lu Dong tried to use them as tools for extracting the alchemy furnace.
As a result, it turned out to be very useful. Even the fire from the center of the earth could not burn these two sticks!
Lu Dong carefully tried to take out the golden dragon cauldron.
However, the furnace tripod felt a strange suction, as if the purple flame was dragging it.
In the end, Lu Dong could only use the power of the mysterious warrior to pull the furnace cauldron out of the fire in the center of the earth.
As soon as the cauldron left the range of the flames, the inexplicable suction suddenly disappeared.
Caught off guard, Lu Dong almost threw the Golden Dragon Cauldron to the ground.
"careful!"
Zhuang Xiaoman accompanied Lu Dong. Seeing the furnace cauldron crumbling, he quickly called out.
Lu Dong stabilized the cauldron and said with a smile, "It's okay!"
"Let's put the stove outside. It's too hot here."
"By the way, help me bring those medicinal materials. We'll pack them up outside and come in later!"
He prepared the materials for the second alchemy.
The most important one is the "Concentration Pill" required for Yan Zhuoma's last course of treatment.
Lu Dong carried the golden dragon cauldron under his arm and walked all the way to the entrance of the cave.
Zhuang Xiaoman followed behind with medicinal materials.
It is not a pleasure to work with a beautiful woman as a companion.
"Dang~"
The golden dragon tripod was gently placed on the ground.
Lu Dong put down his "chopsticks", squatted beside the golden dragon cauldron, and stretched out his hand to feel the temperature of the cauldron.
"Be careful, don't get burned!"
Zhuang Xiaoman reminded with concern.
She still vividly remembers the scene when Lu Dong's hand was burned by the fire from the center of the earth last time.
However……
"Huh? The stove is cold."
Lu Dong carefully tried it for a long time, but found that not only was the stove not hot to the touch, but it was also lower than the surrounding temperature.
Zhuang Xiaoman stretched out her little hand and touched it curiously, exclaiming: "It's true! It's so magical!"
"Let's see if we can refine the elixir first!"
Lu Dong was still quite nervous and looking forward to it.
Whether you are a legitimate alchemy master or not depends on whether you can actually practice elixirs!
He couldn't wait to open the furnace, and immediately a strong medicinal fragrance spurted out and filled the air.
I saw a few golden pills lying quietly in the outer cauldron.
Lu Dong couldn't help being happy and quickly poured out the elixir. It was the "Physical Strengthening Pill"!
"Haha, it's done!" Lu Dong was very happy.
"You are so awesome!"
Zhuang Xiaoman looked at Lu Dong and couldn't admire the man in front of her more. After all, he was already marked by her as an omnipotent being.
"1,2,...,6."
Lu Dong counted and found that there were only 6.
I took another look inside the cauldron and found that it was indeed gone.
He put in a total of 9 "Body Building Pills" ingredients, but in the end he only had 6 pills.
The success rate of the ancient alchemy cauldron ranked seventh is only about 60%.
However, it is also possible that the medicinal materials were not crushed and mixed well enough when feeding the ingredients, thus affecting the elixir yield rate.
"Is this the elixir?"
Zhuang Xiaoman bent over and stuck out her butt, her eyes attracted by the six fitness pills.
The pill is crystal clear, shining with a faint golden light, and continues to exude a faint medicinal fragrance. Just smelling it makes you feel a hundred times more energetic!
Lu Dong smiled and said: "This is called Jian Ti Pill. It can strengthen the body. Within a year or two of taking it, it can also be used to immunize against minor illnesses and pains."
"Is it that powerful?" Zhuang Xiaoman was surprised.
Lu Dong immediately gave her three pills and said, "You and your mother, plus Chunni, one pill each."
Zhuang Xiaoman pursed his lips and said, "Then don't you only have 3 pills left?"
Lu Dong touched the bridge of her tall nose and said, "I have enough for these 3 pills, so Dean, Aunt Lan and Luo Peng will each take one pill!"
He told Zhuang Xiaoman all the relationships between the main people around him, including the people in the orphanage.
Zhuang Xiaoman asked: "Where are you?"
Lu Dong smiled calmly and said, "I'm in such good shape now, but even if I take this bodybuilding pill, it won't have any effect."
Zhuang Xiaoman immediately returned one to Lu Dong and said, "Then I don't want this one anymore, I'm in good health! Just give one to my mother and Chun Ni!"
Lu Dong thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Practicing martial arts will be more effective in improving your physique than this bodybuilding pill!"
After saying this, he opened the middle cauldron.
The result... was empty.
He put the material of a "Qizhi Pill" in Zhongding, but Zhongding had a 30% success rate increase, but he couldn't even refine it.
Could it be that the success rate of refining the Qizhi Pill is lower than that of the Bodybuilding Pill, or is it because the ingredients were not handled properly?
After all, Lu Dong was refining alchemy for the first time, and he couldn't figure out many questions himself.
"Not even a hair..." Zhuang Xiaoman pouted and said with some disappointment.
Lu Dong looked up at her and said with a wicked smile: "Hey, little fool, you are getting more and more horny!"
Zhuang Xiaoman shyly punched Lu Dong and said, "They talked about your alchemy furnace, but they didn't talk about me..."
"You are all the same!"
"Look at the little jar at the end!"
Lu Dong happily took out the inner cauldron.
Opening the lid carefully, a fresh medicinal fragrance hits your nostrils.
"It looks like it's done!"
He happily turned the inner cauldron upside down, and a purple pill rolled out.
"Elixir: Qizhi Dan"
"Efficacy: develop the brain, the specific effect varies from person to person, and is only effective when taking it for the first time."
Two pills become one, so that’s okay!
What Lu Dong didn't expect was that there was an unexpected surprise.
In addition to the Qizhi Pill, a drop of crystal clear liquid crystal was also poured out of the inner cauldron.
It's a bit like transparent jelly, only softer.
"Huh? This is..."
"Dan Yin: Ambergris"
"Effect: Adding it to the alchemy furnace during elixir refining will increase the success rate of the elixir in this furnace by 1000%."
When the inner cauldron is refining specific elixirs, there is a certain chance of refining additional "ambergris".
It turns out that the so-called ambergris is actually Danyin!
And that particular elixir, is it so coincidental that it is the "Qizhi Pill"?
Lu Dong held the ambergris in his hands and suddenly thought of the "Thunder Horn".
Although the golden horn can improve the quality of the elixir, it will reduce the success rate by 90%.
With this drop of "ambergris", wouldn't it just make up for the shortcomings of the golden horn?
"Haha, this is a good thing!"
Lu Dong was so happy that he couldn't help but take a bite of Zhuang Xiaoman.
If you make a batch of "Martial Arts Pills" another day and add golden horn and ambergris, wouldn't you get a batch of high-quality martial arts pills?
How much does a high-quality martial arts pill cost?
Unfortunately... there is no "wild ginseng".
Lu Dong planned to go to the Chinese Herb Hall in the town to purchase a batch of herbs if he succeeded in refining the alchemy this time.
Especially the medicinal herbs and wild ginseng of Budōwan.
Now that the alchemy is indeed successful, you can start this plan and prepare to make alchemy like crazy!
