Ten days later, Xu Wen took a day of rest and took a bath and burned incense to adjust his mental state to the best state.
The Lu Qun saw Xu Wen being so cautious and were unknowingly affected. Lu Xiaoyao personally took action and arranged several fawns who were interested in alchemy and had quick hands and feet to the Flame House.
Over the years, Xu Wen has continuously transported various deer species to Xuanji Cave Heaven, both male and female, regardless of ordinary deer or deer monsters.
As long as he thinks they have some talent, they will all be sent to Xuanji Cave.
With aphrodisiac drugs in the area, the deer herds are singing and singing every day, and the population has expanded several times.
After continuous breeding, edification, and strengthening, some new generation fawns with good talents finally appeared.
Understanding the importance of this matter, Lu Xiaoyao personally selected them and served as assistants.
He personally guarded one side and did not allow other deer to approach.
These deer have undergone basic training and can skillfully identify the elixirs, and the weight and year are exactly the same.
After going through all the alchemy knowledge in his mind, Xu Wen suddenly moved his mind and ordered the deer group to start taking action.
Raising his hand to summon the alchemy furnace, Xu Wen directly put a three-hundred-and-fifty-year-old fire ginseng into it, unlike other alchemy furnaces where he first added the auxiliary ingredients.
It has not been long since he obtained the Xuanji Cave, and he has not yet cultivated the 350-year-old elixir.
This Fire Spirit Ginseng was planted by Lu Xiaoyao and others when the Xuanji Cave Heaven was still in the realm.
In the entire realm within a realm, there are only seven such elixirs that are more than three hundred years old, and there are only three fire spirit ginseng that can be used to refine the foundation building pill.
Xu Wen actually didn't have the confidence to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill three times, but he had to grit his teeth and do what he said.
Wrapping the fire ginseng with mana prevented him from being burned to ashes by the fire in an instant, but it could not completely isolate the heat, which would not have the effect of refining the elixir at all.
You can only let the heat penetrate into the fire ginseng bit by bit at the right angle, right time, and right volume based on the medicinal properties.
It is difficult to refine elixirs that are more than three hundred years old. If you want to get the advantage of having all the elixirs formed at the same time, you can only put it into the furnace first.
At the same time, several fawns who received the order sent the herbs in their mouths into the alchemy furnace.
While Xu Wen wrapped them with magic power and refined it step by step, he fired magic spells continuously to mix the spiritual fluids of different medicines.
The first time I made alchemy, something went wrong very quickly. It was not anything else, but a mistake in the fusion of the auxiliary ingredients.
Fortunately, he had prepared more than a dozen auxiliary medicines. He raised his hand to remove the damaged elixir from the furnace. He added other auxiliary medicines without stopping and continued to refine the elixir.
Once the elixir enters the alchemy furnace, it is an irreversible process. Once it stops, all the medicine in the alchemy furnace will be destroyed.
Forget about other elixirs, the 350-year-old fire ginseng can't be purchased even if you have money. It's very precious, and every one you use is missing.
Low-level elixirs are not valuable, but once they get older, their value will increase greatly.
Elixirs that are more than a hundred years old are considered rare, and elixirs that are more than three hundred years old are things that can save lives at critical moments, and most people will cherish them.
The auxiliary medicines slowly took shape, turning into eighteen elixirs of different colors and smells, guarding beside the fire ginseng.
Seeing that the heat had arrived, Xu Wen did not hesitate anymore, increased his mana output, and completely refined the fire ginseng into liquid elixir.
He raised his fingers and pinched the spells one by one, and each talisman merged into the elixir, driving them to gather together.
The fusion of the first few elixirs went smoothly, but there was trouble in the fifth one.
As soon as it came into contact, the main elixir liquid began to solidify continuously. Even if Xu Wen tried his best to maintain it, the elixir liquid still turned into a lump of earth exuding a strange smell within one breath.
The first time he refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, it failed in this inexplicable process. Xu Wen didn't even expect that there would be a problem in this step.
The main medicine was gone, and the other elixirs also lost their effect. He raised his hand and threw out all the elixirs. Xu Wen began to think quietly.
It was foreseeable that he would not succeed once. Even though he was already a second-level alchemist, he did not expect to succeed even once.
But he must find out the reason for the failure, otherwise, the next failure will happen unexpectedly.
After thinking about it for a long time, he thought there was something wrong with the combination of auxiliary drugs.
Although the prescription of the Foundation Establishment Pill is fixed, the combination of various herbs is not.
Different drug ages, different growing environments and even different picking methods will affect the combination of drugs.
Xu Wen used auxiliary medicines according to the conventional method, but a considerable part of his medicines came from the early realm, and their fire attributes were seriously high.
The matching method that works in other places may not work in his case.
This is one of the reasons why it is difficult to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill. There are too many medicinal materials involved, and the pharmacological details involved are endless.
It is definitely not easy to find the most reasonable combination.
After pondering for a long time, Xu Wen speculated on several combinations and chose the most likely one. Xu Wen started refining alchemy again.
This time it was relatively smooth, and all the auxiliary drugs were smoothly integrated into the main drug, turning into a mass of the original solution of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
But no matter how Xu Wen injected his magic power and drew the magic talisman, the original liquid could not be returned to the elixir.
Seeing that the elixir liquid was disappearing little by little, but still unable to form an elixir, Xu Wen was anxious but helpless.
In the end, I could only watch the elixir evaporate little by little, leaving not a single hair left. However, the surrounding deer herds benefited greatly.
There is nothing wrong with these elixirs themselves. They incorporate the essence of many elixirs and are very effective.
Four of the seven deer were directly promoted to the first level, and the other three levels were even more exaggerated. They were promoted from the early stage of Qi refining to the middle stage of Qi refining.
"You guys are better off."
After laughing and cursing, Xu Wen began to think about the problem.
In the end, it was believed that the refining time of the main medicinal materials was not enough, and other auxiliary medicines were blended in prematurely, resulting in the inability to fully integrate with each other, so that the liquid could not be turned into a pill.
Refining two furnaces of elixirs in a row took more than two months. Even with the cultivation of golden elixirs, the mental loss was great.
After resting for a few days, he restarted the furnace.
This time it went smoothly, the elixir liquid condensed into an elixir smoothly, Xu Wen pinched the magic formula continuously, and performed the elixir dividing and collecting elixir techniques at the same time.
The elixir liquid had just been divided into several groups, but one of the elixirs suddenly exploded at the last moment.
The strong explosion immediately triggered several more balls of medicinal liquid that were forming pills, and several explosions were heard again.
The power of this explosion is no less than half a Yang Leizi, and in a closed space like the alchemy furnace, the power will be greatly enhanced.
With a wave of his hand, the furnace lid hurriedly opened, and mana poured out to protect the alchemy furnace and the surrounding deer.
There was a loud "boom", and dazzling smoke and dust shot straight into the sky, carrying a strong burning smell.
Three elixirs were indeed not enough for him to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill at once.
After careful consideration for several days, Xu Wen found out the reason. It should be that the mana strength was not properly controlled when dividing the elixir.
Before it becomes a pill, the Foundation Establishment Pill is far more sensitive and fragile than ordinary pills, and its resistance to pill absorption is higher.
His personal inventory of the main medicine has been exhausted, and he can no longer refine the Foundation Building Pill.
After sorting things out for a while, he broke out and issued a mission to search for the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill in the mission hall.
He had never done this before because he didn't want others to use this to calculate the time and quantity he needed to refine the foundation-building pills, his level of pill refining, etc.
But now there is no choice but to go public.
The entire Jinghong Island instantly fell into heat. Everyone knew the purpose of needing this elixir.
This means that all other preparations for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill have been completed and will officially begin as soon as the main medicine arrives.
Xu Wen's image in their eyes has always been unpredictable. They would not consider the possibility of Xu Wen's failure. They only felt that the Foundation Establishment Pill was already waving to them.
That night, Xu Wen was meditating in the island owner's mansion, and He Jiu suddenly came to pay him a visit.
I was surprised at how the other party asked for a meeting so quickly. The main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill was not a common thing.
With Xu Wen's permission, He Jiu entered the practice quiet room and took out a jade box without saying a word.
When I opened it, it turned out to be a purple berry the size of a table tennis ball.
The base of the fruit is already withered and yellow, and it must have been picked a long time ago, but the berries are very fresh, and there is no trace of frosting on the surface.
"Five hundred years of Purple Spirit Mist Fruit!"
Xu Wen was shocked. He didn't expect He Jiu to have such a good thing.
Purple Spirit Mist Fruit is an elixir that grows in spiritual mist. It can be made into a very delicious spiritual meal and can increase a certain amount of mana.
This is just one of the most common uses of the Purple Spirit Mist Fruit. The more critical use is that it is the main medicine for refining the Foundation Building Pill.
Among the foundation-building elixir prescriptions obtained by Xu Wen, there are only three types that can be used as main medicines, and Purple Spirit Mist Fruit is one of them.
Not all Purple Spirit Mist Fruits can be used as main medicines. Most of these Spirit Fruits bloom and bear fruit in the same year and mature in the same year, which is useless.
But there are also a few Purple Spirit Mist Fruits that have mutated and can gather spiritual energy and grow for a long time.
Once the time exceeds three hundred years, the Purple Spirit Mist Fruit itself has the effect of helping to build the foundation, and it will naturally become the main medicine for refining the foundation building pill.
"When Xiaoqian was still in the late stage of Qi refining, he accidentally discovered two perennial purple spirit fog fruits on the cliff north of Jinghong."
"After completing Qi Refining, I knew I couldn't obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, so I ate a Purple Spirit Mist Fruit and forcefully attacked the Foundation Establishment Pill. Unexpectedly, I succeeded in one fell swoop."
"The extra Purple Spirit Mist Fruit is kept until now!"
After introducing the origin of the Purple Spirit Mist Fruit, He Jiu bowed deeply to Xu Wen and said:
"I am willing to dedicate this Purple Spirit Mist Fruit to the island owner. I ask for nothing else, but if other conditions are the same, the island owner can give priority to the Crane Clan!"
Although the Purple Spirit Mist Fruit can also help build the foundation, its effect is far inferior to that of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Originally, He Jiu was prepared to ask his clansmen to follow his example and take a risk if he really couldn't find the Foundation Establishment Pill. But since he had the opportunity to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, he naturally wanted to fight for it.
He Jiu has been loyal all these years. Xu Wen was originally planning to leave a foundation-building pill for them, so he immediately said:
"I promise you. When other conditions are equal, the Crane Clan will take priority, but you should also keep the spirit stone!"
"I can see all your hard work and the Crane Clan's efforts over the years..."
