301 Alchemy in progress For a novice, the biggest obstacle is that there are not so many alchemy materials for you to waste.
Think about those heavenly and earthly treasures, especially the high-level elixirs.
Each of them requires hundreds or even thousands of spirit stones.
Even an ordinary cultivating family cannot afford to cultivate them.
Therefore, many immortal cultivating families cannot even refine the Good Fortune Pill, so this is also the fixed supplier of the Yi family firm.
But this problem is not a problem for Ye Kong.
He has breath soil.
With this thing, no matter how many spiritual grasses there are, there are no seeds or roots.
He can quickly cultivate baskets of spiritual grasses, even spiritual grasses that are thousands of years old.
One more thing to say is that there is another reason that restricts alchemy, and that is fire.
Without suitable fire, the success rate of elixir refining and the quality of the elixir will be greatly reduced, so Spiritual Medicine Mountain places its sect on the volcano.
There is no need to worry about this at all, Ye Kong has Cangbei Cold Fire.
This rare fire is a sacred object for refining elixirs.
Of course, it is useless to have fire.
The alchemist also needs to control the temperature of the fire.
If the fire is too strong, the elixir will be burnt; if the fire is too small, the time for elixir to be produced will be missed and the elixir will be useless; the flame will be unstable. , which is even worse, the furnace will explode if you are not careful.
Ye Kong had to thank Ancestor Huang Quan here.
If he hadn't been forced by Ancestor Huang Quan to practice attribute control for three months outside Nandu City, he would not be able to control the cold fire of Cangbei now.
"Ancestor, Ancestor, when will you wake up?"
Ye Kong took out the Water and Fire Gourd, thinking about Ancestor Huang Quan again.
If that old boy knew that he had found the cauldron for him, I don't know how happy he would be.
If he knew again that he was already his cheap stepfather, haha, that guy would definitely jump out and curse.
Ye Kong smiled, abandoned his distracting thoughts, placed the water and fire gourd on the coffee table in front of him, and then placed the various spiritual herbs he needed next to it.
Okay, the preparations are ready, let’s start making alchemy.
Ye Kong sat cross-legged and carefully let the water and fire gourd release a wisp of flame.
As soon as the white frost-like flame came out, the air in the entire formation instantly dropped.
This Cangbei cold fire is indeed amazingly powerful.
This small bunch is like this Cold power.
Ye Kong then used his spiritual consciousness to control the water and fire gourd to make the fire smaller.
Only when the white flame stabilized into a small beam did Ye Kong start refining it.
Thousand-leaf grass, spirit beast meat, and low-grade low-level spirit beast inner elixirs were thrown into the white flames in turn.
Soon, they were melted.
These are auxiliary materials, so they do not need to be refined separately.
Thousand-leaf grass melted into a green liquid, the spirit beast's flesh turned into red mud, and after the white inner elixir of low-level spirit beasts was burned, black liquid flowed out.
Several colors are mixed together and blend into each other, making it look like chocolate of various colors mixed together.
After burning for a while, the various colors have been mixed together, and you can't distinguish between you and me.
However, as the temperature rises, the surface of the liquid begins to bubble, and small granular substances are pulled out from the bubbles.
Ye Kong raised his hands, quickly popped out his index finger, and wisps of strong wind shot out, pushing the impurities out of the liquid.
Ye Kong also learned this move from Ancestor Huang Quan.
This was how Ancestor Huang Quan refined the Bigu Pill back then.
Ye Kong was particularly envious at that time and secretly learned a lot from it, so now he is very skilled in his movements, timing, strength, and position. , all mastered just right.
Once the auxiliary materials are refined, they become the main materials.
Ye Kong filled a porcelain bottle with auxiliary materials, and then carefully threw a snake plant on top.
Those auxiliary materials are very cheap.
The low-grade low-level inner elixir is the most rubbish inner elixir.

It only costs 30 spirit stones.
Spiritual beast meat is even cheaper.
Five spirit stones buy a large amount of it.
As for the thousand-leaf grass, it is even more expensive.
What I didn’t mention was that there were two spiritual stones for one plant, and each plant had thousands of leaves.
Only a dozen of them were used each time.
The most expensive one is this main material.
There is only one Eight Hundred Spiritual Stone.
If any alchemy master knew that this kid was using such expensive materials for his first alchemy practice, he would definitely jump in and yell at him.
It’s too extravagant and wasteful.
After a while, the main materials were also refined, and Ye Kong took out the auxiliary materials and fused them in the flames.
According to Lian Ruolan's experience record, the fusion of main and auxiliary materials is the first big hurdle for novices in alchemy.
But Ye Kong was lucky, and the fusion was successful the first time.
An hour later, a blue pill prototype appeared.
With the first successful experience, Ye Kong continued his efforts and prepared to make four more pills.
After gathering five pills, he would proceed to the next step of baking and refining in the alchemy furnace.
But then we were not so lucky.
Four of them in succession were frustrated at the fusion point and could not be fused, resulting in all the main and auxiliary materials being wasted.
Ye Kong only prepared a total of ten snake plants, and now there are only five left.
He did not dare to continue.
He took a breath and closed his eyes to recall the previous five fusion processes.
After an hour of thinking, Ye Kong felt that the reason for the last four failures was that the timing of adding the auxiliary materials was wrong, and the firing time of the main materials was too long, resulting in the auxiliary materials being thrown in and unable to combine with the main materials.
After finding the reason, Ye Kong continued working.
Take out four parts of the snake plant, leaving only the most juicy and tidy one for cultivation.
Although the reason has been found, the timing of adding the auxiliary ingredients is really difficult to grasp.
Putting it in later or earlier depends on the alchemist watching the color of the main ingredient solution.
This is something that cannot be explained and requires experience.
Just fine.
This alchemy is really not a poor man's job.
A few hours later, nearly nine thousand spirit stones of materials were successfully fused, but only the prototypes of two pills were successfully fused.
This hasn't worked out yet.
It can be said that it is still early, this first step is the simplest, and Ye Kong has already wasted 70% of the materials.
Looking at the two prototypes, Ye Kong felt lucky that the whole army was not wiped out.
Ignore them and put them into the alchemy furnace.
The alchemy furnace is a brass alchemy furnace, and it looks pretty good.
However, there are no additional effects, such as increasing the success rate of elixir generation.
However, a pill furnace with these effects is very expensive.
Even if it increases the success rate by 1%, it is still sky-high.
Ye Kong doesn't mind, he has a lucky charm, as long as there is a lucky charm groove on the alchemy furnace.
He paid attention to it when he bought the alchemy furnace, so he bought this antique alchemy furnace.
Ye Kong can currently only open the first page of low-grade high-level charms, so there are no too-high-level lucky charms, just 10%, so make do with them.
Ye Kong took out the brass alchemy furnace.
It immediately became the size of the Eight Immortals table, golden yellow, with dragons and embroideries on the furnace handle, and a lace hollow silk screen on the furnace cover.
It looked good, but Ye Kong knew that Those are just decorations and have no effect.
"Hey, if you have time to carve dragons and phoenixes, you might as well open two more slots for lucky charms on the furnace body.

It's just flashy."
Ye Kong cursed angrily.
