I am in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 268: Refining the elixir to perfection

He Xin stared at the alchemy furnace intently, paying close attention to the changes in it. When it was almost time, he quickly made a secret with both hands, and hit the alchemy formula one after another towards the alchemy furnace.

After a while, the movement in the stove stopped. There was no smell or sound. Could this be... done?

He Xin suppressed her inner excitement and quickly stood up to check, with Qin Shu following closely behind.

The two of them opened the lid of the alchemy furnace and couldn't help but get excited when they saw three round pills rolling down from the alchemy furnace.

He Xin hugged Qin Shu, "Shu! It's done! It's a pill! I'm great!"

"It's really amazing! It became a pill in the second furnace. Sister, you are very talented." Qin Shu praised.

He Xin suddenly became shy, lowered his head and said coquettishly: "It's not that good."

As soon as he finished speaking, the air became quiet for a moment.

He Xin silently raised his head and looked at Qin Shu, and the two suddenly burst into laughter at the same time.

After laughing for a long time, Qin Shu pushed He Xin to the futon from behind and asked her to sit down.

"It's not over yet, hurry up and continue practicing."

He Xin was puzzled, "How much do you want to practice?"

Qin Shu raised her eyebrows, and with her current broken hair, she actually still had some youthful heroic spirit.

"Of course you have to practice until you can perfect the elixir." Qin Shu said without thinking.

He Xin: "??"

"Perfectly refining an elixir? Sister, do you think I am you? I have never perfected an elixir before! This is still a second-grade elixir. I can't do it. I really can't..."

Qin Shu stood beside her, held down her wildly swaying little head, and said only two words, "You can do it."

He Xin was stunned and looked up at Qin Shu, with some unconfidence in his clear eyes.

Qin Shu looked directly at her condescendingly, her black eyes sparkling, and she said firmly: "Even if you couldn't do it before, you can do it from today on."

Her eyes seemed to have some kind of magic power, and He Xin gradually settled down.

She didn't say anything, she just used spiritual energy to heat the furnace as Qin Shu said before.

Qin Shu watched her movements, took two more herbs and handed them to her. She threw the herbs into the stove one by one. Qin Shu watched her movements from the side, and from time to time, she picked up a pen to write on the paper. Write something.

A furnace of elixirs was produced again. This time it was obviously better than last time, and four elixirs were actually produced. Although they were all low-grade elixirs, they still gave Hexin confidence that she still had a lot of room for improvement. Although it was difficult, at least there was hope.

When she was about to start refining the second furnace, Qin Shu suddenly interrupted her. After she looked over, she took the paper in her hand and said while looking at it: "The heating time of the furnace should not be too long or too long. Short, it's best to stop when the temperature of the furnace is similar to the temperature of the spiritual energy you entered at the beginning. Also, maybe... you can try to change the order of adding the herbs. The longer the refining time of some spiritual plants, the weaker the medicinal properties. The stronger the medicine, some are just the opposite. You have to find a way to keep them at their strongest..."

Qin Shu was talking about her own experience, and she had nothing to hide from her sisters.

He Xin was stunned for a while when she heard this. She suddenly felt that when she compared her alchemy skills with Qin Shu's in the past, she was just like a child playing around and wasting materials.

She didn't close her open mouth for a long time. She waited until Qin Shu finished speaking before she sighed: "So there is so much knowledge in alchemy?"

Qin Shu smiled and said nothing, and He Xin saw this and said, "Then how can I know when the herbal medicine is the most powerful?"

"There are no shortcuts, just practice more."

Qin Shu spoke in an understatement, but He Xin's heart trembled. No wonder everyone said that Qin Shu almost lived in the alchemy room in the past. The soul-boosting pills she refined had raised the welfare of the entire sect to a higher level.

She was able to answer her own questions today, and she spoke eloquently. Every sentence she said would cause countless alchemists to think deeply.

However, she had refined countless elixirs to figure out these. Her sisters were obviously younger than her, but she seemed to live more clearly than anyone else. Looking back at myself...the longer I stay in the sect, I seem to lose my ability to think and have to follow the book in everything.

When Qin Shu saw He Xin looking at her in a daze, she raised her hand and pinched her cheek.

He Xin is now fifteen years old, and the baby fat on her cheeks has gradually faded away, revealing a beautiful oval face.

Qin Shu squeezed her and she came back to her senses. She frowned slightly and heard Qin Shu's voice again, "Stop being lazy, sister, and go ahead and make the elixir. You help me make the elixir, and I'll help you find faults. We are mutually beneficial." A win-win situation.”

He Xin raised his hand and slapped her little hand that was making trouble on his face, and then solemnly nodded "Yes", took out the elixir again, and changed the order of refining the elixir according to Qin Shu's instructions.

Some herbs look strong but cannot withstand burning at all, while others look like pampas grass but can burn for a long time.

It was also the first time that He Xin began to observe these spiritual plants. This feeling was very strange. Watching them become pure little by little, and after burning them for a while, the medicinal properties would evaporate. She also gradually learned about the strongest medicinal power of these spiritual plants. What's the status?

She followed Qin Shu's example and took out some paper and pen to record her findings.

After refining it for twelve times, He Xin opened the furnace again and found that although she was still refining five elixirs, there was one more middle-grade water-avoiding elixir.

She was so excited, "It's really useful! Sister, you are so amazing!"

Qin Shu also discovered that He Xin had gradually mastered how to summarize experience, so she didn't need to watch from the side.

I could help her for a while, but I couldn't help her for a lifetime. Only if she learned to think independently, she could use it in the future, whether she was refining any elixir or learning any technique.

"Hurry up, don't waste time, while you still have the feel, hurry up and improve."

He Xin also gradually realized Qin Shu's catchphrase: practice makes perfect.

She finally understood why Qin Shu was young but better than most people. In addition to her outstanding qualifications, she also had perseverance and wisdom that ordinary people didn't have.

It is said that Qin Shu refined more than 13,000 furnaces just for the spirit-replenishing pill, not counting the essence-replenishing pill, the spirit-nourishing pill, etc.

She entered the sect with Qin Shu, and a hundred of her combined did not refine as much as Qin Shu.

Although there was a reason for her slow cultivation speed, she was indeed not as desperate as Qin Shu.

She was hardworking, smart, and her qualifications were not bad.

So she established her foundation three years after entering the sect. Many cultivators with natural spiritual roots did not achieve this speed.

Oh, she suddenly thought of something.

She looked up at Qin Shu and asked a question that had nothing to do with alchemy, "Shu Shu, have you established your foundation perfectly?"
