Longevity Martial Arts: Beginning with Sword Drawing

Chapter 193 The five layers are ready, start alchemy!
"I still have 5000 taels of silver in cash. I can buy Dragon Vein Pill and continue to improve my cultivation level."

After the excitement was over, Lin Bei still calmed down and continued to think about his cultivation plan.

The current cultivation direction has two key points, one is the realm of one's own cultivation, and the other is alchemy.

The former is always the fundamental way and the most important thing!
But if one wants to improve one's cultivation level, one needs a large amount of Dragon Vein Pills, otherwise the progress will slow down.

Therefore, alchemy is also essential.

"The value of Longmai Dan is between [-] and [-], depending on the quality of the pill."

"Excellent quality, usually higher than 900 taels, occasionally can reach [-] taels."

"If you want to buy medicine pills, you should buy the best ones. Otherwise, the efficacy will be weakened, so it's not worth it. Based on my partnership with Xuan Yuezong, you can buy high-quality dragon vein pills for 1000 taels of silver at a price of 800 taels."

"5000 taels of silver, if all of them are used to buy Dragon Vein Pills, you can buy 68 Dragon Vein Pills, plus the remaining nine, there will be a total of 77 Dragon Vein Pills."

"However, I only need 32 Dragon Vein Pills to advance to the fifth level of Dragon Vein Pills. To be on the safe side, I will buy 35 Dragon Vein Pills directly, and keep the remaining money just in case."

"Thirty-five Dragon Vein Pills, except for the nine in my pocket, I need to buy another 35, one for 26, totaling [-]."

Lin Bei got up directly to find Luo Yiqing and asked to buy Longmai Pill.

Luo Yiqing was very generous, and with a wave of her hand, she took him to Xinyue Baibao Pavilion to buy.

The whole process was quick and easy, and Lin Bei suddenly had 26 Dragon Vein Pills on his body.

"Now I have 35 Dragon Vein Pills and more than 4000 taels of silver..."

In addition to these, Lin Bei also has an alchemy secret book, an alchemy furnace, and ten ingredients for Longmai Pill.

Luo Yiqing and Jiang Qingyue were very optimistic about Lin Bei's desire to make alchemy, but they were noncommittal about his desire to become an alchemist in a short time, shaking their heads and laughing inwardly, thinking that it was impossible.

Lin Bei's medical skills are superb, and his cultivation is good. If he can have two or three years, he still has a lot of hope to become an alchemist.

But it is not realistic to want to become an alchemist within a few months.

Lin Bei shrugged his shoulders, did not say much, locked himself in the room alone, and started his alchemy journey.

First classify the medicinal materials, and then perform various treatments according to the medicinal properties, or grind them into powder, or dry them into slices, or boil them into juice...

The process is extremely complicated, and each medicinal material needs to be treated with a variety of different treatment methods according to its medicinal properties, which is a test of the alchemist's medical skills.

At least one must have a very good understanding of the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials, otherwise mistakes will be made.

Lin Bei's current medical skills are pretty good, and he didn't make any mistakes despite being cautious.

The medicinal materials of Longmai Pill will be processed soon.

Lin Bei took a deep breath, started alchemy, and lit the alchemy furnace with a special charcoal fire.

call!
The charcoal fire was ignited, and the flames of the red fire danced fiercely, licking the base of the pill furnace, and the scorching energy spread into the furnace instantly.

Then, Lin Bei stared wide-eyed, patiently observed the heat, took the time, and poured the medicinal materials into it.

"There should be nothing wrong..."

Lin Bei wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt his eyes a little sore, which was the result of being too serious.

"No matter, control the fire first!"

Lin Bei took another deep breath, focused his face, concentrated his energy, summoned the power of Qi and blood, slowly left the body, and began to control the fire and make alchemy.

After the power of Qi and blood left the body, it began to overflow and flow violently, which was extremely difficult to control and took a lot of effort.

And the fire control link of alchemy has very strict requirements on the power of Qi and blood.

It didn't take long for Lin Bei to feel that most of the power of Qi and blood was overflowing, and the control of the pill fire was not satisfactory, sometimes it rose and then went out, sometimes it was too violent, and sometimes the firepower was not enough.

"This alchemy is really difficult!"

Beads of sweat ooze from Lin Bei's forehead, his expression is a little tired, and the power of Qi and blood in his body has almost bottomed out.

Fortunately, it didn't hold for too long, and a puff of white gas came out from the hollow of the alchemy furnace, mixed with the smell of medicinal materials.

"open!"

Lin Bei slapped the alchemy furnace with a palm, accompanied by a bang.

From the mouths of the four outlets, a pitch-black ball rolled down from one of them.

"This……"

The corner of Lin Bei's mouth twitched, looking at the black ball that was emitting scorching smoke, he smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Is this riding a horse a pill?"

Lin Bei picked it up and looked at it for a while, only to see that the ball was uneven and a little scorched. It was dark in color with a hint of burnt yellow.

"Failed!"

"But it's normal. After all, it's not bad to be able to produce a ball that has the shape of a pill for the first time after all."

Although the alchemy failed for the first time, Lin Bei was not discouraged.

Many apprentices who tried to make alchemy, when they first made alchemy, were stuck for a long time even in processing medicinal materials, making frequent mistakes, let alone successful alchemy.

Lin Bei didn't know if he made any mistakes in handling the medicinal materials, but he could at least complete it once, and even if he made a mistake, it was definitely a very small mistake.

"The step of processing medicinal materials only needs to be reviewed a few times, and there will generally be no problems. It's just the fire control link. I'm afraid it will take a long time to be fully proficient."

Lin Bei began to review his own gains and losses.

Undoubtedly, the key lies in the link of controlling fire and alchemy.

This step, let alone a novice apprentice, even many alchemists often fail.

"However, don't panic at all, the progress bar has been displayed, you just need to continue to be proficient."

Lin Bei regained his confidence.

In his mind, the properties panel has been updated.

There is one more alchemy in the skill option.

[Alchemy (1% of the first glimpse of the first realm)]

Although it failed, at least one briquette was smelted, and it was successfully started.

Opening the door, Lin Bei stretched his waist and watched the sun rise in the sky, only to realize that a day had passed.

"First open the door for half a day, and then take a good sleep to replenish the spirit and restore the power of qi and blood, and then try the second alchemy attempt."

Lin Bei opened his clinic again amidst the impatient patients.

After a morning consultation, Lin Bei went straight back to the house, closed the door and slept for half a day to recharge his batteries.

Then, he started alchemy again.

The materials of Longmai Pill are expensive, and only 1000 taels of silver can make up one piece.

If it weren't for saving the ingredients of the pill, Lin Bei would have planned to use the spirit ginseng skill to add qi and blood powder to quickly restore the power of qi and blood and spirit.

Anyway, as long as he continues to be proficient, the progress bar can slowly advance. With superb medical skills, the process of becoming an alchemist will be a terrifying leap forward.

But in this way, waste is inevitable.

Unfortunately, alchemy materials are expensive!
Lin Bei can only try to ensure his own condition, so as to save materials to the greatest extent.

In the second alchemy, Lin Bei got a little more proficient, but unfortunately he still failed!
