Nine Heavenly Towers

"Then you'd better not come to pick me up." After Yin Ning left, Xuan Mu muttered in a low voice, then poured all the spirit herbs into the alchemy furnace, and closed the lid again.

Just when Xuanmu was about to throw the fire talisman into the alchemy furnace again, the old man who was called by Yin Ning as an old ghost but also Master Xuanmu came out to speak.He said: "Are you going to practice alchemy in this hall again?"

"Yeah, is there something wrong?" Xuan Mu asked in a surprised tone.

"Hmph, what's wrong? Are you ashamed to ask me? Don't you look at the beam above your head?" the old man said angrily.

Hearing the words, Xuan Mu's heart was moved, and he looked up, only to see that the beams above his head were all black, probably blackened.But what did it matter to him?Xuan Mu was puzzled.

"Take out your little alchemy stove quickly." The master spoke again, Xuan Mu had no choice but to move the alchemy stove to the small courtyard.

"Hey! This old man didn't have the same attitude yesterday." Xuan Mu was thinking about it while walking.After being puzzled for a moment, he remembered Yin Ning's attitude towards him just now. It seemed that because of the scene just now, the old man immediately changed his face.

"Who made himself powerless?" Xuan Mu said in a low voice, and then threw the fire-type talisman into the alchemy furnace.Started alchemy again and again.

Finally, after a day of refining, a sweet fragrance finally came out of the alchemy furnace.Xuan Mu opened the alchemy furnace ecstatically, but there seemed to be nothing inside the alchemy furnace.

Xuan Mu looked intently again, good guy, he actually refined a pill the size of a rat droppings inside.

He poured the elixir out of the elixir furnace, only to see a little black mouse droppings appear in front of his eyes.Fortunately, when he sniffed it with his nose, it still smelled like medicine, otherwise he would have thought it was really a piece of mouse droppings.

No matter how you look at it, this elixir is not as good-looking as the slightly green wood elixir received from the Kunlun Sect.However, Xuan Mu still intends to try the medicine himself.After swallowing this black elixir into his stomach, Xuanmu felt that this elixir was gradually refined into fine powder by his spiritual power, but there were still some black residues that could never be refined. of.

"Not only is the aura not that strong, but it also seems to have a bitter taste." Xuan Mu muttered to himself, and poured herbs into the alchemy furnace.

"Xuanmu, did it say on the jade slip that so many herbs should be poured in?" The old master suddenly shouted angrily at this moment.

Xuan Mu's hands trembled in shock, and all the herbs in his hands were poured into the alchemy furnace.

"You boy, do you really think that medicinal herbs are free? Putting so much at once is a waste of my hard work. What about the elixir you made?" The old man was obviously quite dissatisfied with Xuanmu's big hand, and left after cursing. Come.

"I've taken the pill." Xuan Mu replied confidently.

"What? You took it? You are here to learn alchemy, not to take pills." The old man's face was cold, and his old face was full of anger.

"Yesterday, you didn't say you can't take pills." Xuan Mu once again answered confidently and confronted each other.

"Excessive words, fallacies and heresies." The old man's face flushed with anger, and after his anger gradually subsided, he said, "Don't put so many medicinal materials in the future, and match them according to the ratio on the jade slip. Hand in the amount. Do you hear me?"

"Understood." Xuan Mu replied lazily.Then he immersed himself in alchemy again, this time he had to pour out all the medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace, and pour them into the alchemy furnace according to the proportion, not too much, but dare not less.

In the blink of an eye, another afternoon passed, and Xuanmu finally refined a decent wood spirit pill.

When he excitedly took this pill and came to the master, the old man turned his mouth, looked at the dark wood spirit pill, and finally threw it to Xuanmu, and said with a sneer: "You wooden pill Take the panacea and eat it yourself!"

Xuanmu's mouth was also crooked, he took the wood spirit pill with some dissatisfaction, threw it into his mouth, and then said: "You let me eat it yourself."

After eating cleverly, he asked this question again.I don't know if it was to anger the old man, or because he was really afraid that the old man would go back on his word, anyway, his question came at the right time.

The old man waved his hand, he was so angry that he didn't even want to say anything to Xuan Mu.

After Xuan Mu finished eating the elixir, seeing that it was getting late, he was about to walk towards Banyue Palace in a hurry.Yin Ning just came here at this time.

The two beasts looked at each other, without speaking, and headed towards the Moon Palace at the same time.

Time gradually passed for five days, within these five days, Xuan Mu persevered in alchemy, and finally refined five decent wood spirit pills.

The old man also accepted the five wood spirit pills with satisfaction. As for the remaining five blackened pills, the old man must be giving Xuanmu a reward.So he gave Xuanmu the high-level "Mulberry Pill" pill formula. Although the dosage of the medicinal materials in the pill formula was almost the same, he blindly added the medicinal material called "Buddha's Hand".

Just because of the added taste of bergamot, it became a 'high-level wood elixir'.Xuan Mu was also stunned for a moment after looking at the pill formula.

Excitedly, he dug out several bergamot plants from the medicinal herb garden, washed them, chopped them into pieces, added them into the alchemy furnace according to the dosage, and then covered the alchemy furnace.Just when he was about to throw the fire talisman into it, he seemed to suddenly remember something.

——"By the way, the jade slip seems to indicate that it cannot be refined with the rapid fire of the magic talisman, but can only be refined slowly with the flame stone."

Xuan Mu suddenly thought of this matter, and hurriedly went to the warehouse to get the flame stone.After receiving the flame stones and returning, Xuanmu put all the flame stones into the inner fire space under the alchemy furnace, and then found a bamboo tube.

This bamboo tube is for him to master the heat, this is the gap between high-level panacea and low-level panacea.There are relatively few precautions for refining low-level elixirs, while high-level elixirs are improved and comprehended by later generations when refining elixirs along the formulas of predecessors.

Therefore, the names are the same, but there are differences in ranks.

It was introduced in the jade slips that when refining high-level wood spirit pills, half an hour of gentle fire and half an hour of martial fire are required.Dark fire for half an hour, then slow fire, strong fire, and dark fire.

In about three full hours, this high-level wood spirit pill was refined.

Three hours later, bursts of medicinal fragrance came out of the alchemy furnace, but the sound of spiritual liquid boiling seemed to disappear.Only then did Xuanmu draw out the spiritual power from the flame stone, and the fire light in the flame stone dimmed immediately.

He put away the Flame Stone properly. This Flame Stone can only be used for five days at most. After five days, the Flame Stone will lose its spiritual power and its brilliance will dim, no different from ordinary stones.
