Chapter 385 Failure is also an experience (Part 2)
Three years later, Yang Chen finally condensed and completed the last spiritual talisman and penetrated it into the mountain peak.
As the last talisman entered, Yang Chen's body suddenly felt a huge suction force, and along with Gongsun Ling's scream, he involuntarily entered a certain space.
This is a very huge space, which is like a grid, divided into countless small spaces, densely packed, numbering at least tens of millions.
Yang Chen understood that this space was the inside of the medicinal gourd, because it was filled with a medicinal aroma that Yang Chen was familiar with, which was very strong.
As long as Yang Chen's thoughts move, he can appear in any grid. Yang Chen knows that in each grid, a kind of elixir can be stored. The elixir stored here does not need to use talismans to block the properties of the medicine.
The medicinal energy will not dissipate, and the medicinal effect will become better and better due to the nourishment of the magic weapon.
Originally, Yang Chen thought that there must be many peerless elixirs in it, but to Yang Chen's disappointment, although the medicine was fragrant, Yang Chen did not find any trace of any elixir under his spiritual consciousness.
It seems that the owner of the medicinal gourd only kept the gourd and did not leave any elixir.
However, these grids are not empty. At least there are some black scum-like things in millions of grids.
Based on Yang Chen's experience, he could recognize at a glance that these black things were medicine dregs. But Yang Chen still didn't understand that such a powerful medicinal gourd contained so many medicine dregs instead of elixirs.
What's the point?
The surprise is always at the end. In the innermost grid, there are hundreds of jade slips. When Yang Chen discovered it for the first time, he couldn't believe his eyes. There were so many jade slips in the medicinal gourd.
Could this jade slip be some kind of peerless elixir?
Yang Chen picked up one piece, and with his spiritual consciousness, he looked into the contents carefully. Soon, Yang Chen became a little disappointed. The jade slip actually only recorded some common medicinal materials under various heat conditions.
changes, as well as changes in some competing medicinal materials.
According to Yang Chen's current level of alchemy, after referring to the Laojun Alchemy Sutra and the Yun Dan Sutra left by several immortals, these things are just simple things for Yang Chen. These simple medicinal materials, Yang Chen took
You can control the perfect heat at any time in your hand, and there will be no mistakes at all.
However, as Yang Chen picked up more and more jade slips and browsed them, Yang Chen's expression began to become more and more cautious and serious.
The contents recorded on these jade slips are basically the same. The only difference is the type of medicine. Later, there are some simple combinations of elixirs, but the contents are all under various heat conditions and various abnormal situations.
The medicinal materials have changed, and most of the time, they have ended in failure.
But Yang Chen began to pay more attention to it and became careful when holding the jade slips, as if they were some kind of peerless treasure.
It was no wonder that Yang Chen didn't pay attention to it. Only now did he discover from the things recorded on these jade slips that he seemed to have taken a wrong route in refining alchemy.
Although there is the Laojun Alchemy Sutra, the Yun Dan Sutra, and the elixir recipes from the spiritual world and the fairy world, as well as Yang Chen’s own fire-attribute spiritual roots’ memories of previous lives, his ability to control fire can be said to be otherworldly. All of this, including the Yunling Furnace
With his strength, Yang Chen can almost be said to be the most powerful alchemist in the world.
There are many elixirs that can prove this, whether it is the Duotian Dan, the Asking Heart Dan, or the Second Turn Nei Cha Dan, the Black Tiger Yang Yuan Dan, the Black Tiger Calm Pill, and the Qi Seeking Pill, these can all be proven, Yang Chen
He is definitely an advanced alchemist.
Even Yang Chen himself thought so before. Almost every batch of elixirs that Yang Chen refined never failed, and all were successful. At most, the quality of the elixirs was different, and the number of elixirs produced was different.
Never once has a furnace of elixir been wasted.
But after reading the records on these jade slips, Yang Chen suddenly discovered that he was not a senior alchemist in the strict sense. The reason was that Yang Chen had never failed to refine any elixir.
This reason sounds ridiculous, but Yang Chen himself knows that all of this is because of Yang Chen's memory in his previous life. However, Yang Chen was just a very ordinary alchemist in his previous life. Perhaps the ordinary people in heaven
An alchemist can indeed be a high-level alchemist in the mortal world, but this does not mean that Yang Chen will still have such advantages after he ascends.
Even Yang Chen himself could not guarantee whether Yang Chen could maintain such a standard if he changed to a prescription that Yang Chen had never heard of and some medicinal materials that Yang Chen had never come into contact with.
These jade slips with detailed records told Yang Chen very vividly how a real alchemy master grew up. For each medicinal material, this master had tested it with various heats and conditions, and it would form
What kind of mistakes will lead to what kind of consequences.
The same is true for the experiments in those alchemy recipes. What kind of mistakes will occur in the combination of different medicinal materials under different circumstances is the true manifestation of the basic skills of alchemy.
As the saying goes, failure is also an experience. Smooth sailing will not last long. No one is exception. One day, you will encounter setbacks and failures. Only if you can learn from failures can you
is the most correct attitude.
On the way to refining alchemy, what Yang Chen lacked was precisely failure. Because based on the memory of his previous life, Yang Chen didn't know much about what kind of failure he might encounter on the way to refining alchemy. Now in the mortal world, Yang Chen is still okay
He pretends to be a master, but when he really reaches the spirit world and the fairy world, Yang Chen will definitely reveal his true colors.
What is recorded on these jade slips is the immortal's precious experience in alchemy, and there are also many failed experiences. Some even failed deliberately to learn about the changes in the potency of the medicine under different circumstances.
As for the medicinal dregs in the grid, they are the result of these failures. For every test, there is a pile of corresponding medicinal dregs left. In the medicinal gourd, these medicinal dregs are also perfectly preserved and can be used at any time.
For Yang Chen’s research.
In Yang Chen's eyes now, even if the grid is filled with peerless elixirs, they are not as precious as these piles of medicinal dregs. With these, Yang Chen can make up for his lack of knowledge of medicinal materials to the greatest extent.
Let Yang Chen solidify the foundations he lacks most.
Even if someone brought thousands of Taishang Laojun's Nine Turns Golden Pills in exchange, Yang Chen would never exchange these medicine residues. It was only at this moment that Yang Chen truly understood what kind of elixir refining path he should take.
