Yang Xian followed Shen Liyun to the alchemy room again. Shen Liyun began to refine the Qi Refining Pill and explain it. Yang Xian listened like a good baby.
"The most important thing in alchemy is the control of the alchemy temperature and the accurate corresponding control of the alchemy technique. This kind of control can only be achieved through continuous practice. The flames in the master's alchemy room are caused by the earth fire guided by the formation. Relatively speaking, It is stable, so it is easier to control the temperature during alchemy, which is conducive to improving the success rate of alchemy. The alchemy furnace is also a low-grade alchemy furnace instrument obtained by the master, which also helps to increase the success rate of alchemy.
When refining alchemy, you must first warm and nourish the alchemy furnace. Although this stage requires the consumption of spiritual energy, it is indispensable. When warming up the alchemy furnace, start to understand the spiritual herbs and elixirs used in alchemy. You should know this step, especially The age, medicinal properties, dosage of the elixir, properties of the elixir and the optimal dissolving temperature of the elixir are the basis for alchemy and must be kept in mind. Next is the elixir. The resistance between attributes, all spiritual herbs and elixirs have different attributes. There are no two herbs with exactly the same attributes. Therefore, in the process of refining alchemy, you need to use your mind or consciousness to grasp the medicinal properties of the liquid. Make timely adjustments to changes in all aspects. This requires your spiritual thoughts and alchemy techniques to cooperate with each other to make changes. Once you grasp the best alchemy condensation nodes and alchemy collection nodes, you can then follow these nodes to perform alchemy techniques. If you cooperate with the cast, the success rate of this alchemy will basically reach more than 90%. This is already a very high probability. It is impossible for an alchemist to achieve a 100% success rate every time he makes an alchemy, because you cannot fully control every one. As for the details, as long as any detail is not perfect, there is a possibility of failure every time the alchemy is made.
Alchemy is about step-by-step. The first-level elixir is full of 10 pills, the second-level elixir is 9 pills, the third-level elixir is 8 pills, the fourth-level elixir is 7 pills... and so on, when you first start refining. When making elixirs, although the first-level elixir can be divided into ten pills, don’t pursue the success rate of full pills, because your alchemy skills and spiritual thoughts cannot support you to refine ten full pills. After that, give up the remaining nine pills and concentrate on refining one pill first to ensure the success rate of one pill. When the alchemy skill improves, divide the pills into ten and give up the remaining eight pills to ensure the success of refining two pills. The rate... By analogy, when you can control the first-level elixir to refine 10 elixirs at the same time and the elixir production rate reaches 50%, that is when your alchemy can be advanced, but alchemy The difficulty of the technique will double as the amount of alchemy increases. Although the success rate of alchemy will decrease as the amount of alchemy increases, the time for alchemy will be saved. It takes 1 hour to successfully refine an elixir. , it takes an hour to successfully refine 5 or even 10 pills. The difference is huge. This means the loss of alchemy materials and the cost of alchemy time. After all, resources and time are precious. limited. Now I will make the elixir myself, you follow my instructions. "
"There are 5 kinds of elixirs used in Qi Refining Pill. The main drug is one, Ningling Grass, which is 20 years old. There are 4 auxiliary drugs, namely Polygonatum, Ginseng, Fire Spirit Fruit and Wuye Vine. These The age of the elixir is more than 20 years old. If the years are different, the medicinal properties will be different. It should be noted here that among the five types of elixir, the age of Ningling grass is 20 years, and the age of Polygonatum is 25 years. Ginseng is 22 years old, Huolingguo is 20 years old, and Wuye Vine is 30 years old. The years of the elixir are different, and the strength and weakness of the medicinal properties are also different. The warming and nourishing elixir furnace has been completed, and the medicinal properties analysis has also been completed. , you can start making alchemy, you first put Huangjing into the alchemy furnace."
Yang Xian immediately used his spiritual thoughts to drive away objects and put Huang Jing into the alchemy furnace.
“Ginseng and Fire Spirit Fruit were put in one after another, followed by Ningling Grass and Black Leaf Vine.
Yang Xian put the remaining four elixirs into the alchemy furnace in turn.
"The spiritual thoughts enter the alchemy furnace."
Yang Xian decisively put half of his spiritual thoughts into the alchemy furnace. Yang Xian found that the various spiritual grasses in the alchemy furnace were in different positions. The black leaf vine was at the top, the condensation grass was next, and the fire spirit was next. Fruit, ginseng, and polygonatum. Although the five elixirs were located in different locations, Yang Xian found that the five elixirs melted at exactly the same speed. The essence of the melted elixirs was wrapped and controlled by Shen Liyun's consciousness. The consciousness of the mind is a very magical thing. It is not affected by high temperature, but it can sense the changes in temperature.
Yang Xian's mind was his own eyes, and Yang Xian watched silently. After half a quarter of an hour, all the spiritual herbs and elixirs were left with only their essence. Yang Xian's mind saw that the essences of the five elixirs were based on the elixir. The order of the injections was blended in sequence, and everything seemed to be smooth. There was no attribute reaction mentioned in the alchemy process. The other half of Yang Xian's mind directly saw Shen Liyun constantly changing the alchemy techniques. Yang Xian now knew, Yang Xian watched based on the situation in the alchemy furnace and the situation outside the alchemy furnace at the same time. Yang Xian felt more concrete. When the liquid medicine merged, Yang Xian saw that Shen Liyun's alchemy method had not changed and was still merging. Waiting After a period of time, Yang Xian found that the medicinal liquid became more harmonious. At this time, Shen Liyun's alchemy technique also changed. Liyun's spiritual consciousness directly and quickly divided the fused medicinal solution into ten parts, and then the ten parts of the medicinal solution condensed the elixir at the same time. It turned out that the master Shen Liyun was refining the full elixir, and the method of dividing the elixir and condensing elixir was an alchemist. The fundamental reason is that different methods of dividing and condensing pills have different control changes in the medicinal liquid, and the rate of pill formation is also different. Using the pill-dividing technique, one portion of the medicinal solution was divided into ten equal portions, and then the pill-condensing technique was used to directly condense the pill into a Qi-refining pill. Yang Xian felt very miraculous. It turned out that this was how the Qi-Refining Pill he had taken before came from. All 10 elixirs became elixirs, but Yang Xian found that three elixirs seemed to be less agile than the other seven elixirs. Finally, when Shen Liyun came up with the elixir collection method, the ten elixirs became elixirs in sequence, and finally found that they had become elixirs. There are 7 elixirs, including three useless elixirs. It seems that these three elixirs are elixirs that master Shen Liyun gave up. Yang Xian also withdrew his spiritual sense, and finally discovered that the three useless pills were the three that his spiritual sense was not functioning well.
After reading Shen Liyun's alchemy process, Yang Xian found that he was even more confused about alchemy and seemed to have many questions to ask. Shen Liyun looked at Yang Xian's confused look and said at the right time: "I can answer three questions for you, just ask them!"
Yang Xian was overjoyed and asked the first question: "Master, how do you make all elixirs melt at the same speed?"
"Different elixirs have different properties and melt at different temperatures. This is also recorded in the elixir catalogue. Just ensure that different elixirs have different melting temperatures in the elixir furnace, and adjust the corresponding temperatures of different elixirs in a timely manner. It can be done.”
Yang Xian thought thoughtfully, "Master, it is said in the alchemy basics that even if the master is a second-level alchemist, the maximum success rate of refining the first-level Qi Refining Pill is only 60%. How come the master's success rate is 70%? ?”
"This is a good question. The so-called success rate of alchemy is often inaccurate, because every time you refine an elixir, there are two possibilities: success and failure. The success rate depends on the level of the alchemist's alchemy skills. It is one-sided. If we want to be precise, the criterion for verifying the level of an alchemist's alchemy skills is based on the rate of elixir production. The success rate is generally what laypeople say. It is more accurate to use the rate of elixir production. Take the first-level elixir as an example. The elixir is full of 10 elixirs. Each time you refine the elixir, after dividing the elixir into ten elixirs, the elixir yield rate will be 10% if you get one elixir. If you get two elixirs, the elixir yield rate will be 20%. ....If this elixir refining fails, the elixir yield rate is zero. Laymen call it success rate, and insiders talk about elixir rate. On the surface, they sometimes seem to have similar meanings, but it is more accurate to use the elixir yield rate to describe it. For alchemy In terms of skill, the rate of elixir production is the most accurate evaluation of an alchemist's alchemy skills. If an alchemist is highly skilled, it means that the number of times the alchemist is made is less, the amount of alchemy materials is wasted, and the rate of elixir production is high. This is the standard that tests an alchemist's true strength in alchemy.
Generally speaking, the alchemist's elixir production rate can be increased by external alchemy furnaces, alchemy techniques, and experience, so the elixir production rate can exceed the theoretical value, but the auxiliary bonus for alchemy is also extremely limited. The refining is because the master himself is extremely skilled in refining Qi Refining Pills, and he is refining first-level elixirs at the level of a second-level alchemist. With the assistance of an alchemy furnace at the level of a low-grade magic weapon, the elixir production rate has exceeded The theoretical value reaches 70%. Generally speaking, 60% of the elixir production rate is the most reasonable. Yang Xian suddenly understood, and Yang Xian continued to ask: "Master, can refining elixirs avoid the occurrence of useless elixirs?" "
"This question is a bit greedy, but let me tell you. Under normal circumstances, when an alchemist refines elixirs of the same level, no matter how good the alchemy skills are and how high the success rate of assistance is, such as the assistance of alchemy techniques, the above There is always the possibility of failure with the help of a good alchemy furnace, so the emergence of waste elixirs is inevitable, but the rate of elixir production of waste elixirs can be reduced, such as cross-level elixir refining, good magic weapons to assist elixir refining, etc., but I, Master When I refining the Qi Refining Pill and Full Pill for the first time, the maximum pill production rate was only 70%, and three waste pills were produced. Unless I was a fifth-level alchemist refining a first-level pill, then ten full pills would be produced. It is possible to avoid the generation of waste elixirs with a high probability, and to refine first-order elixirs full of elixirs, with a 100% elixir yield rate. The first-order elixirs refining full elixirs made by this kind of super cross-level elixir have no meaning.
Therefore, the emergence of waste elixirs is inevitable, especially the higher the level of the refined elixirs, the less likely it is that the elixir yield rate will be full, and even the elixir yield rate will be very low. Precisely because there are few high-level elixirs, high-level immortal cultivators There are very few people, so just listen to these words, there is no need to take them to heart. "After asking the questions, you can go back!" "Master, I don't have a place to live here yet." Yang Xian said awkwardly.
