That is, Qingyang, because the Drunken Immortal Gourd was upgraded and matured a large number of elixirs for use, he was able to continuously refine Qi-nourishing pills within a month. If other monks learned the pill technique, they could only
Save money and save some materials to try once. If it succeeds, it's okay. If it fails, I want to save more materials next time, but I don't know if it will be the Year of the Monkey or the Horse.
After a month of continuous attempts, Qingyang spent hundreds of materials to refine dozens of Qi-nourishing pills. Compared with the wasted materials, the value of these Qi-nourishing pills is not worth mentioning, but Qingyang's alchemy skills are
He has made great progress, and his understanding of alchemy has entered a whole new level, and he can barely be considered a pulse-opening alchemist.
Under normal circumstances, alchemists are divided according to the level of pills they can refine. A pulse-opening alchemist must be able to refine pills that can open a pulse and improve cultivation. A qi-refining alchemist must be able to refine pills that can improve hunger.
For cultivation elixirs, foundation-building alchemists must be able to refine the elixirs that foundation-building monks take.
Of course, each realm also has specific requirements for alchemists. According to convention, under normal circumstances, only those with a success rate of more than 30% are considered qualified. The value of materials for refining an elixir is generally one-fifth to one-fifth of the elixir.
One quarter, the success rate must be more than 20% to maintain capital, and the success rate must be 30% to make a surplus, so if the elixir success rate is less than 30%, he cannot be considered a real alchemist. Qingyang's current success rate in refining Qi-nourishing elixirs is only about 20%.
, can only be said to be a quasi-opening alchemist.
It took five months to become a quasi-opening alchemist. This time is not short, but for other alchemists, it is already a staggering speed, because for others, who does not need it?
Will it take several years, or even ten years?
After refining the Qi-Nourishing Pill, Qingyang turned his attention to the Qi-Gathering Pill. Half of the ingredients in the Drunken Immortal Gourd were from the Qi-Nourishing Pill, and the rest were generally from the Qi-Gathering Pill. Qingyang refined the Qi-Nourishing Pill just to improve the pill.
Technique, refining the Qi Gathering Pill is his real purpose.
Qingyang has now reached the Qi refining stage. Only by taking Qi Gathering Pills can he improve his cultivation level. If he becomes a Qi Refining Pill Master, he can refine the pills he takes. It will be easy to improve his cultivation level.
?Maybe it can also be used to earn spiritual stones.
He did what he said. Qingyang didn't even leave the alchemy room this time. He just rested for two days, adjusted his condition, and started trying to refine the Qi Gathering Pill.
With the experience of refining Qi-nourishing pills in the previous month, Qingyang's pill skills have been greatly improved. His experience is richer, his techniques are more skillful, and his mentality is more stable. Even if he sometimes encounters some unexpected small situations,
You can also solve it yourself in time.
The specific situation will not be described in detail. In short, when Qingyang refined the Qi Gathering Pill, it was much smoother than the previous refinement of the Qi Nourishing Pill. That is to say, in the first attempt, more than 20 materials were wasted. After that, the success rate
It got higher and higher, and when a month passed and all the materials were used up, the elixir formation rate finally reached nearly 20%.
With a 20% rate of alchemy, Qingyang can now be regarded as a quasi alchemist. It only took half a year to go from an ordinary disciple who knew nothing about alchemy to a quasi alchemist.
Qingyang's speed as a Qi alchemist is not bad. Even compared to Chang Wubing who he met in the alchemy room of Chuan Gong Academy last time, it is not much different.
You must know that Chang Wubing spent more than ten years to become a self-taught man, so he was favored by Qingtian Sanren. If he knew that Qingyang only spent half a year to achieve what he is now,
Probably going crazy with fear.
However, Qingyang also knows that Mu Xiu is bound to be destroyed by Lin Feng. If this matter is really leaked, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire sect. I am afraid it will be difficult to practice in a low-key manner in the future. There are too many secrets in his body. If he lives in this place for a long time,
In full view of the public, something will happen sooner or later, so it is necessary to keep a low profile. Things about alchemy can be disclosed appropriately, also to facilitate future operations, but the more shocking details must be kept secret.
After all the materials were used up, Qingyang got about sixty Qi-nourishing pills and more than seventy Qi-gathering pills, which were worth about eighty spirit stones.
The materials of the Qi Gathering Pill and the Qi Nourishing Pill are similar in quantity, but the difference in value is huge. More than 40 parts of the Qi Nourishing Pill are equivalent to one spiritual stone, while the material value of the Qi Gathering Pill is nearly ten times that of the Qi Nourishing Pill.
Times, one spirit stone can only buy four to five pieces of Qi Gathering Pill materials. In other words, just by selling the materials, this batch of items can be sold for nearly 200 spirit stones.
Not all monks are as rich as Qingyang. For most monks in the Qi Refining Stage, two hundred spiritual stones are almost their entire income for more than ten years. Due to daily consumption, many monks even spend decades
He couldn't save so much, but Qingyang squandered it all in just two months. Things worth two hundred spiritual stones were turned into elixirs worth eighty spiritual stones, and the value shrank by sixty percent.
70%, it can be said that the gain outweighs the loss.
However, Qingyang has no regrets, because he has improved his alchemy skills and has become a quasi-qi alchemist. Having thousands of pills at home is not as good as having one skill at his disposal. With a 20% pill-formation rate, he can almost save his capital, and he can refine similar pills in the future.
There is no need to pour the elixir inside. As the elixir-forming rate further increases, he can even make a living by refining it.
This is the case for alchemists. The cost required in the initial stage is very high. There is only investment but no output. After reaching a certain level, the capital can be saved, and then there will be a huge profit. However, most monks have no cost to invest because of their own conditions.
We can only look back and sigh, that's why alchemists are so rare and so popular among monks.
More than seventy Qi Gathering Pills are only enough for the first level of Qi Refining. However, Qingyang still has many valuable things on his body, including a lot of spirit stones. When the time comes, he can sell them and replace them with the materials for Qi Gathering Pills, so that he can go further.
Improve your alchemy skills and refine more Qi Gathering Pills, at least in the early stages of Qi refining, you don't have to worry.
In the last few days, Qingyang also tried to refine the Bigu Pill. The main material of the Bigu Pill is Linggu, and the refining method is extremely simple. For a quasi-qi alchemist like Qingyang, there is almost no
Any difficulty, so it's easy to succeed.
After the last upgrade of the Drunken Immortal Gourd, it not only ripened the elixirs planted by Qingyang, but also ripened the spiritual grains in the land he planted. There is sufficient spiritual energy in the space of the Drunken Immortal Gourd, and the output of the spiritual grains is higher than the outside world.
A lot, about dozens of kilograms of spiritual grains were harvested. The rate of pill formation of Bigu Pills is relatively high. Tens of kilograms of spiritual grains produced more than a dozen Bigu Pills, which can make ordinary monks live fast for at least one year.
