Wonderland

Chapter 172
The excitement on Xiao Lin's face turned into frustration in an instant. He stared at the medicinal liquid that had exploded into medicinal dregs and stopped spinning, and remained silent for a long time.

After a full hour, Xiao Lin sighed softly and revealed a bitter smile.

Although he had already expected the result of the failure of the first refining of the five elements elixir, he was full of frustration when he saw that his success fell short at the juncture of success.

From Xiao Lin's point of view, he spent this period of time studying the alchemy handbook left by Master Tao, especially the alchemy about the Five Elements Pill, which he read no less than dozens of times, and every time he read it, he would Take some time to comprehend.

Moreover, in the process of refining the water elixir, he also followed the steps recorded in the handbook, every step was careful, and even every time he put in the medicinal materials, he deliberately compared it with the description in the handbook.

But even so, it failed in the end.

Xiao Lin stared at the alchemy furnace, but was thinking hard in his mind.

Xiao Lin found out the alchemy steps recorded in the alchemy handbook from his mind again, and began to comprehend every step and every detail in detail.

Half a day later, after cleaning up the residual liquid in the alchemy furnace, Xiao Lin started alchemy again.

Two days later, Xiao Lin walked out of the alchemy room with a dejected face. He first went to the spirit field, watered all the spirit grass with water control formula, and checked that the spirit grass was growing well, then returned to the alchemy field. After leaving the alchemy room, he continued to open the road of alchemy.

For the next ten days, every morning, Xiao Lin could be seen listlessly watering the spiritual grass in the spiritual field, and even once, because of distraction, a small piece of spiritual mist grass was almost flooded.

This made Xiao Lin very nervous. The spirit grass in the spirit field is the treasure of Master Tao, so there must be no mistakes. The spirit fog grass is okay, if the very few five element spirit grass is due to his own fault And if something unexpected happens, then I am afraid that I will really be severely punished.

It took more than an hour to loosen the soil of these spirit mist grasses that were almost flooded, and shoveled some soil to re-cultivate them before Xiao Lin entered the alchemy room again.

Apart from taking out some dried meat from the storage bag once a day to fill his stomach and watering the spiritual field, Xiao Lin devoted all his time to alchemy, even while eating, he was thinking about the process of alchemy.

What made Xiao Lin depressed was that he had refined dozens of pots of five-element elixirs, but every time he failed to shatter them at the critical moment of alchemy, which almost drove him crazy.

I thought that with my own experience in refining Yunling Pill and Huiyuan Pill, there might be some twists and turns in refining the Five Elements Pill, but it shouldn't be too difficult, but the fact is that the refining of the Five Elements Pill, compared to First-order spirit pills such as Yunling Pill are at least several times more difficult.

That's why that Uncle Tao confidently entrusted him and Xiao Yishao with the task of refining the Yunling Pill, but never mentioned the refining of the Five Elements Pill.

Thinking about it, in her opinion, with the level of Xiao Lin and Xiao Yishao, it is absolutely difficult to refine the Five Elements Spirit Pill, and even if Tao Ling is a true disciple, there is not enough Five Elements Spirit Grass for the two of them. Go splurge.

And Xiao Lin is also very clear that although Tao Ling is in charge of this spiritual field, he needs to pay a certain amount of finished spirit pills every month, otherwise Master Tao's authority to control this spiritual field will not be guaranteed. .

Of course, Xiao Lin has nothing to do with who is in charge of this spiritual field, as long as he can study alchemy in peace, he will be satisfied.

The days of alchemy were full and boring, but Xiao Lin's days of alchemy were full of bitterness. Seeing furnaces of elixirs bursting in front of him, that kind of frustration almost destroyed his confidence in alchemy, even more than once Xiao Lin would Ask yourself after alchemy fails.

Is it because I don't have the talent for alchemy at all?But obviously no one would answer him. Even in Tao Ling's alchemy experience handbook, it only recorded some alchemy process and details, but did not record the number of times she failed in alchemy and her mood after failing in alchemy.

Xiao Lin didn't realize it before, but after experiencing the dark days of alchemy, Xiao Lin finally understood the difficulty of becoming an alchemist. Thousands of outer disciples of the Qi refining period on Dancao Mountain, hundreds of disciples of the foundation building period Inner sect disciples, this does not include those outer sect deacons and elders in the foundation establishment period.

And among these people, there are only [-] or [-] people who really have the qualifications of alchemy masters. Among the disciples of the Foundation Establishment Inner Sect, there is a probability of about one in [-].

Thinking about this probability, Xiao Lin can roughly understand why it is so difficult to refine the Five Elements Spirit Pill.

In Dancao Mountain, only second-level alchemists who have refined five-element elixirs and have a success rate of more than [-]% are called alchemists. The so-called first-level alchemists are those of Xiao Lin's level. The one who is called an alchemist is an alchemy boy.

Most of the Yunling Pill benefits distributed by the outer sect disciples during the massive Qi refining period of Dancao Mountain come from the hands of the alchemy boys under the [-] or [-] alchemists.

As for the Five Elements Spiritual Pills needed by the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, they all come from the hands of these twenty or thirty alchemists, without exception.

Even Xiao Lin's brother Xiao who claimed to have the talent for alchemy could not refine the five elements elixir.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel a little better, cheered up, entered the alchemy room again, and started the arduous road of alchemy.

On this day, Xiao Lin was sitting in the alchemy room, looking at a green elixir in his palm with a calm expression.

There are seven or eight jade bottles beside him, only one of these jade bottles contains the five water elixir that Xiao Lin just refined today, while the rest of the jade bottles contain the five pills that he has been refining these days. Since then, I have taken the time to refine the Yunling Pill.

It has been two months since Xiao Lin started alchemy, and it was not until today that Xiao Lin refined the first batch of water elixir.

After experiencing countless failures, Xiao Lin's mood has long been neither sad nor happy, even the moment he refined this potion of water panacea, the feeling of joy is fleeting.

Gently put the elixir in the palm of your hand into your mouth, the elixir melts as soon as you enter your mouth, and turns into a stream of clear water that flows down your throat and enters your body. After entering your body, it immediately turns into a piece of coolness that permeates Xiao Lin's whole body. Among the meridians.

As soon as he entered the meridians, Xiao Lin felt a stream of pure spiritual power instantly fill the meridians, and the meridians in his body suddenly began to ache.

Xiao Lin's complexion changed, and he closed his eyes hastily. He recited the formula of the eighth dry water sutra silently in his heart. Soon his whole body was shrouded in a layer of misty water vapor, and his five senses were also in the process of cultivation. gradually closed.

In the early morning of the second day, the door of the alchemy room opened, and Xiao Lin walked out of the alchemy room refreshed, looking at the beautiful scenery of the fairy mountain in front of him, he couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

After a whole night of practice, the long-lost feeling of rapid improvement reappeared. The Water Spirit Pill is indeed worthy of being a second-order panacea. Compared with the Yunling Pill, both the quantity and quality of the aura are at least ten times stronger above.

It was precisely because of this that it took Xiao Lin a whole night to completely refine that water elixir, turning it into the pure mana flowing in the dantian.

Sitting on a bluestone next to the Lingtian, Xiao Lin rested his chin on his hand, lost in thought.

Through these two months of alchemy, Xiao Lin's attainments in alchemy have undoubtedly deepened a lot, and the water elixir he refined is by no means accidental, but a natural result after his alchemy has reached a certain level.

Although he is still unable to achieve a [-]% alchemy rate, in his opinion, a [-] to [-]% alchemy rate is not a big problem, but the Five Elements Spirit Grass on his body is running out, and the fire scale fruit is even more so. Only the poor three remained.

Fortunately, the fire scale fruit in the spirit wood space will mature soon, and it should be ready to be harvested in ten days and half a month.

Xiao Lin is very clear that with his current alchemy rate, the spiritual grass grown in the spirit wood space may not be enough to maintain his cultivation, but as he refines more and more five-element elixir, the alchemy rate will definitely increase. With some improvement, it should be able to reach a balance with the growth speed of the spirit grass in the spirit wood space.

After irrigating the spirit field, Xiao Lin entered the alchemy room again, closed the door and meditated into the spirit wood space.

Looking at the four-leaf grass exuding a gray mist in front of him, Xiao Lin showed a smile on his face. These four-leaf grass exuding a gray mist are exactly the dust-cleaning grass planted by Xiao Lin.

And next to the Dichencao, the purple spirit flower has already produced a bunch of purple fruits the size of a thumb, and it also exudes bursts of sweet smell.

The purple spirit flower he picked from beside the spiritual spring in the burrow has already reached the limit that a second-order spirit flower can grow, and has begun to bear fruit.

Looking at the various spirit grasses and flowers growing in his spirit wood space, Xiao Lin showed satisfaction on his face. After a while, he came to the small sapling and stared at the small leaf on the top of the sapling. After watching it for a while, he flicked it lightly and left the spirit wood space again.

Xiao Lin started his life of painstaking cultivation in Dancao Mountain, which was boring but extremely fulfilling.

That Senior Brother Xiao completely "disappeared" after he came several times to confirm that Xiao Lin was fully qualified for the task of refining Yunling Pill.

And Xiao Lin was also happy to be clean, and the refined water spirit pill was swallowed by him to practice the Dry Water Sutra, and half a month later, Xiao Lin harvested a batch of second-level spirits from the spirit wood space again. Grass, and entered the alchemy room to start refining the five elements elixir.

After the last success, Xiao Lin's alchemy rate has really improved a lot, every ten furnaces can at least one furnace, and every time a furnace of five elements elixir is refined, Xiao Lin will directly swallow it for cultivation.

In this way, the refined five-element elixir is barely enough, at least one pill every two or three days is still available, and with Xiao Lin's current eighth level of Qi Refining, he can swallow one five-element elixir every day It is already the limit.

Three months later, the success rate of Xiao Lin's refining of the Five Elements Spirit Pill reached [-]%, which immediately made Xiao Lin rich, and he didn't have to live a tight life.

Although the days of cultivation were boring, they passed quickly, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.
