Emperor of Death

Chapter 73 The Ingenious Alchemy Technique
Under the medicine cauldron, the flame was burning fiercely. The slovenly old man stared intently at it, and then used his mental power to sense the temperature of the medicine cauldron.

Different elixirs have different requirements for temperature, which requires extremely high experience to be able to handle it accurately.

In the process of alchemy, any negligence will cause precious herbs to be turned into ashes.

Yechen just walked upright to the front of the medicine cauldron and stood beside the sloppy old man.

The sloppy old man didn't notice that there was another person beside him, maybe it was because of his confidence in his formation, or maybe he was in the depths of Jiangyin Academy, and no one dared to disturb him.

As time passed, the old man began to put herbs one by one into the medicine cauldron. Feeling that the flames were not enough, the slovenly old man squatted down quickly and went to the bottom of the medicine cauldron to add fire source stones.

After carefully placing the fire source stone with the iron tongs, the slovenly old man suddenly found that there was an extra pair of feet beside him.

The slovenly old man was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly raised his head, and saw Ye Chen who was standing beside him smiling at him, the old man's eyes suddenly widened, and strong anger immediately appeared on his face.

"Boy, where did you come from." The sloppy old man said angrily, and the strength in his body surged instantly. Yechen found that this sloppy old man was actually a master. The high level in Jiangyin College.

However, for Ye Chen, martial artist scum and such can't arouse his interest at all, far less attractive to him than the medicine cauldron in front of him.

Ye Chen said: "The temperature is up, put in the herbs quickly."

The scruffy old man was so excited that he couldn't blame Ye Chen anymore. After giving Ye Chen a vicious look, the old man carefully threw the Seven Star Frost Leaf Grass in his hand into the medicine cauldron.

Afterwards, silver power emerged from the old man's hand, and he kept pinching the alchemy formula, pouring the power into the medicine cauldron.

Alchemy is divided into refining, refining and alchemy.

Refining is to extract the essence of medicinal herbs, leaving the useful parts and removing the useless parts. This alone has prevented countless people who want to learn alchemy.

The second refinement is further strengthening, which is more difficult than the previous refinement.

The final step of forming a pill is to fuse all the purified herbal essences together. This is the simplest step, but also the most important step.

Every step has a corresponding alchemy formula, the experience that needs to be accumulated, and the understanding of the way of alchemy.

Now the sloppy old man is taking the first step, refining.

The old man's movements were well-regulated, but Yechen could see that the old man was very devout in the way of alchemy. Although his clothes were sloppy, he was very delicate in alchemy, but because of his ordinary talent, he refined a furnace of soul Dan, still be so careful.

Continuously pouring the formulas into the medicine cauldron, after about an hour, the first step of refining was finally completed, and the sloppy old man was already sweating profusely.There is a pile of white powder left in the medicine cauldron, which is the essence after removing impurities.

And during this process, he didn't even have time to look up at Yechen.

Next, is the second step of purification.

The slovenly old man continued to pour the elixir into the white powder in a regular manner. While maintaining the temperature of the medicine cauldron, he further purified the white powder. After the purification was completed truthfully, the remaining part would be less than one-tenth.

Yechen watched silently from the side, watching the "clumsy" movements of the slovenly old man, feeling sorry for this top-quality Seven Star Frostleaf Grass in his heart.

The older the herb, the more difficult it is to purify it. Seeing the sloppy old man sweating profusely, Ye Chen was afraid that he would ruin the elixir.

Suddenly, the white powder made a "chi chi" sound, and the old man's face changed.

This is a sign that the pill is about to be scrapped.

The old man sighed in his heart. Originally, he did not dare to refine such a superb seven-star frost-leaf grass by himself, but he couldn't resist the temptation of the top-quality frost-leaf grass. In the end, he did not wait for helpers to come and started refining it alone. system.

And he didn't even grasp the intact medicine powder before, and now the medicine powder is about to be scrapped, how can he get it back?According to past experience, the old man knew that most of this top grade Seven Star Frost Leaf Grass had already been destroyed by himself, and most of the next half was irreparable.

This time the alchemy has failed.

"It's all the boy's fault." The old man suddenly thought of the boy who appeared beside him for no reason, and was furious in his heart. If he hadn't appeared and distracted himself, the alchemy this time might have been successful.

The old man didn't want to continue alchemy either, he turned his head angrily, the anger in his heart wanted to vent, and that young man was the best way to vent his anger.

However, when the old man turned his head, he froze.

Yechen's hands are constantly making handprints, which are the alchemy formulas for alchemy, and his alchemy formulas are completely different from the ones he has seen.

This set of alchemy seems to be more complicated, but among the complicated movements, the young man's movements are flowing like clouds and flowing water, without any unfamiliarity.

The old man stared blankly at all of this. For him who had been immersed in elixir all his life and was infinitely devout in alchemy, the young man's movements were close to the Tao, so that the old man could not pick out the slightest flaw.

And the powder below, under the young man's elixir, began to dance continuously, and the essence of the elixir was peeled off again and again. The powder that was about to be damaged was being purified normally at this moment.

No, it's not normal at all. The old man found that the speed of purification was three times faster than his own.

The old man was already stunned, completely immersed in Yechen's artistic alchemy skills, staring at all this intently.It wasn't until two hours later that Yechen finally worked out the alchemy formula. With the bursts of fresh medicinal fragrance, white pills danced in the medicine cauldron, the old man realized that the alchemy was over.

Afterwards, the old man's face showed an expression of incredulity. Right now, there are 31 pills in the medicine cauldron, ten more than he imagined, and these spirit pills are all top-quality products. The efficacy of the medicine is at least twice that of ordinary spirit pills. If you refine it by yourself, even if you succeed by chance, it will only be about twenty pills, which is only one and a half times as effective as ordinary spirit pills.

In this world, how can there be such ingenious skills?
Just when this thought came to the old man's mind, Yechen picked up the cold ice jade bottle that the old man had prepared, and put 31 pills into two jade bottles. In one of them, Yechen was not polite. One was stuffed into his bosom, and the other was placed in the hand of the dull old man.

Afterwards, Yechen turned and left in a good mood.
