Back in the yard, Bainian passed on "Wind and Cloud Jue" to Bai Mei. Because this spiritual energy technique was not suitable for Xun'er, Bainian did not pass it on to her.
After the three of them chatted in the yard for a while, Bai Mei was in a hurry to practice "Wind and Cloud Jue", so the three of them separated. There will be plenty of time, and the most important thing for them now is to improve their strength.
After Bai Xun'er left, Bai Nian returned to his room, opened the space ring given to him by his old man, and took out the "Basics of Alchemy".
As soon as Bainian had absorbed the knowledge of "Basics of Alchemy", his eyes suddenly went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he had arrived in a place like a secret room.
It was pitch black all around, with only a small area in front of him having light. In the middle of the area, there was a half-meter-high furnace tripod with some things carved on it that Bainian didn't recognize.
"Bainian, this is an alchemy space specially prepared for you. You can only leave after you have basically mastered the basics of alchemy." The old man's voice suddenly sounded from all around.
"..., why don't you tell me first? I thought I was about to travel through time again." Bai Nian said angrily.
"Okay, okay, it belongs to a grown man and his mother-in-law."
"I, you, damn. Forget it, what should I do?"
"What you have in front of you is the alchemy furnace, and the elixir recipe will automatically appear in your mind later. All you have to do is to refine it." The old man explained.
"Then what if I can't practice it?" Bai Nian asked.
"Can't refine it? Then keep practicing until the elixir is complete. Anyway, you are in a consciousness space. You stay in it for a year, and only one second passes outside. There is plenty of time." The old man said nonchalantly.
"Okay, I understand."
Bainian stood in front of the alchemy furnace, and a jade-colored futon appeared at his feet. Bainian sat cross-legged on it, and an elixir recipe suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Blood Feather Pill: A first-grade high-grade pill that can improve a small level of strength in a very short time. It is suitable for any level below the Dou Master level.
The side effect is that after an hour, the body will enter a period of weakness, which lasts for two hours. But it also has the advantage that it will shorten the time for the user to enter the next short period.
Every time Bai Nian thinks about a material, the corresponding material will appear around him.
After Bai Nian read the alchemy recipe once, he began to recall the basics of alchemy that had just entered his memory not long ago.
"Huh, it's my first time making alchemy, so I'm still a little nervous." Bainian said excitedly.
"I advise you to calm down, otherwise it will be easy to destroy the elixir." The old man said suddenly.
Bainian stiffened and muttered: "That's too long."
Bai Nian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed down his mood.
Bai Nian put his hand on the alchemy furnace, concentrated his concentration, and transferred the spiritual power in his body into the alchemy furnace in front of him.
After the transformation of the alchemy furnace wall, a gray flame emerged from the bottom of the alchemy furnace. Under the influence of spiritual power, the flame continued to burn.
After the flames stabilized, Bainian opened his eyes curiously and looked inside.
"Old man, this fire is too small. It's not as wide as the nail of my little finger." Bai Nian complained.
"What do you know? This fire is the fire of chaos burning in the void. Otherwise, it is in the consciousness space. Your little spiritual power is not qualified to even look at it outside." The old man said angrily.
"..., cough, don't bother me, old man. If I fail in refining the elixir, it will be your fault." Bainian said seriously.
"You are really thick-skinned."
Bai Nian didn't care what the old man said. As long as he didn't feel embarrassed, no one could embarrass him.
Bainian closed his eyes again, and his mind slowly calmed down. With his excellent soul perception, Bainian constantly sensed the alchemy furnace in front of him.
When the prototype of the alchemy furnace appeared in his mind, he felt that he had a slight connection with the alchemy furnace in front of him.
When this feeling appeared, Bainian's face lit up with joy, because he knew that he could take action.
He activated the spiritual power in his body and let the fire of chaos burn the entire alchemy furnace. After a while, the temperature in the alchemy furnace rose to a suitable temperature.
"Huh, that's it. The next step is to put in the medicinal materials, a blood coagulation grass, two blood energy flowers..."
Bainian recalled what he needed, activated his spiritual power with one hand, took the blood energy flower next to him with the other hand, and put the blood energy flower into the alchemy furnace.
As soon as the blood-energy flowers entered the medicine cauldron, before Bai Nian could control it, the flames flew up. In an instant, many blood-energy flowers turned into pitch-black ashes, and were finally driven out of the cauldron by the special settings in the medicine cauldron.
Inside.
After swallowing his saliva, Bai Nian once again threw a blood flower. This time, the blood flower persisted in the flames for a while, but it still turned into pitch black ashes.
"Huh." Bai Changchang breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed the irritability in his heart.
Before, he thought that he could successfully refine elixirs with knowledge, but now he realizes that knowledge alone is not enough. Without corresponding practice, no matter how rich the knowledge is, it is useless.
As a great man said, practice is the only criterion for testing truth, and knowledge also requires practice.
After persistently burning more than a dozen blood energy flowers, Bainian finally touched the point where the blood energy flowers adapt to temperature, which also improved his control over the alchemy furnace.
Throwing in a blood flower again, Bainian's face became a little solemn. His soul perception firmly controlled the temperature of the flame. Through his soul perception, Bainian stared at the blood flower suspended on the flame.
flower.
After writhing in the flames for a while, the Blood Flower finally began to gradually shed its petals and the turf underneath.
The juice contained in the petals and stamens was also smoked and roasted into a little pale white powder. The essence of the medicinal power in the blood flower was finally successfully extracted by Bai Nian.
Looking at the pale white powder inside, Bainian showed a happy smile on his face.
Bai Nian stared intently at the churning flames in the medicine cauldron, his slightly pale face covered with beads of sweat.
Refining medicine for a long time is a task that consumes extremely spiritual energy, and the alchemy furnace used by Bainian at this time consumes spiritual energy very quickly.
Now his spiritual power is provided through the transformation of mental power. If it is consumed too quickly, his mental power will be reduced and weakened.
Therefore, it was not easy for him to persist in refining medicine in front of the medicine cauldron for nearly two hours.
The old man looked at Bai Nian who was working so hard and muttered with some distress: What a fool, don't you know how to take a rest?
"Bainian, it's not enough to go too far. You have to take a rest now, otherwise no matter how hard you practice later, it won't be effective." The old man couldn't help but say.
The old man's voice made Bainian realize that he was already a little dizzy and stopped quickly. Now he felt that alchemy was very interesting, so he accidentally put all his attention into it, which made him not notice.
