The spiritual stone thrown into the alchemy cauldron melted quickly before Guo Xun's eyes, and finally turned into a crystal clear light blue liquid.
When the entire refining process was completed, Shang Wang began to explain the subsequent steps to Guo Xun.
The two liquids rotated around each other in the alchemy cauldron, then slowly approached, and finally slowly touched together until the two liquids completely merged into one.
This is the melted liquid in the second step of alchemy. The liquid that merges into a ball is the size of a fist and glows with a bright light blue light.
Guo Xun is very curious about what will happen next. How can the liquid spiritual liquid be turned into a solid elixir?
Shang Wang took the time to glance at Guo Xun, who was like a curious baby, and couldn't help but smile, thinking that he was in such a state back then.
This is an attitude that can make things happen. It was precisely because of Shang Wang's attitude of always being curious that he was able to become a third-grade alchemist despite losing his teacher.
Shang Wang kept explaining to Guo Xun some of the problems and steps that would be encountered in the alchemy process. After melting the liquid, there was condensation, condensation of the elixir, channeling, and finally the elixir.
When Shang Wang came to the step of channeling, his eyes flashed, and his whole aura instantly became serious.
Channeling is the last step before the elixir is made. This step is also the last opportunity to improve the quality of the elixir.
When the spiritual fire burns the elixir, it will undergo qualitative changes, and this process of change is called channeling. Channeling is the essence of alchemy. As long as you master this step, everything else is just a cloud.
If you want to refine top-grade, top-grade or even fairy-grade elixirs, you must have a special understanding of the step of channeling.
Some alchemists have reached the fourth, fifth or even sixth level, but the quality of the elixirs they refine is still a mess. Such alchemists are just superficial. If they cannot master the true essence of channeling, they will never be able to become true alchemy masters or even grand masters.
Channeling requires using spiritual fire to burn the elixir that has successfully condensed. During the burning process, you must observe the changes in the elixir to control the size of the spiritual fire.
Channeling can be said to be every alchemist's nightmare. If there are slight mistakes in other steps, the elixir will eventually be formed, because these steps cannot directly make the elixir useless.
But channeling is different. For the elixir, this step is a complete thought of heaven and hell. If it fails, it will be directly scrapped and become a useless elixir. If it succeeds, of course, the elixir will be released naturally.
Shang Wang was naturally cautious about this channeling step, and the originally relaxed explanation also stopped at this time.
Guo Xun also discovered this, but Guo Xun didn't find it strange. After all, he heard that alchemy was not an easy task, and that being bold and careful was an essential quality for an alchemist.
The heat and temperature of each step of alchemy are different, and all these business ideas were handed over to Guo Xun. Guo Xun also listened with interest, and his eyes were always shining with the light of wisdom.
Guo Xun was comprehending and feeling every word, every step, and every action Shang Wang said.
The whole process of Shang Wang's elixir refining was smooth and smooth without any delay. This smooth feeling was pleasing to the eye and made Guo Xun feel as if he was appreciating art.
In the end, it only took Shang Wang a quarter of an hour to complete the alchemy. For a third-level alchemist, refining a first-level elixir is completely easy.
But in order to show off his powerful alchemy ability in front of the genius Guo Xun, Shang Wang did not relax at all when refining the Spirit Gathering Pill this time, and used 100% of his strength.
After all, in Shang Wang's eyes, Guo Xun is an out-and-out genius. Only by setting a higher starting point can Guo Xun feel the pressure. If Guo Xun thinks that alchemy is easy, then how can he lose face as a master? ! Where is the majesty!
Shang Wang withdrew the spirit fire, and the movement of his hand slowly stopped. For a moment, the fragrance of alchemy overflowed, and the entire alchemy room was filled with a faint fragrance. This fragrance was very familiar to Guo Xun. It was the spirit gathering grass. Unique fragrance.
At this moment, five pea-sized light blue elixirs lay quietly in the alchemy cauldron, and next to these five elixirs there were five other dark pills.
These dark pills emitted an indescribable odor that made it impossible to look directly at them. Needless to say, these pills were waste elixirs that had failed to be refined.
Shang Wang ignored these dark pills. He stared at the inside of the pill cauldron, his eyes full of surprise and shock. He just looked at the spirit-gathering pill he had refined for a long time without saying a word.
I actually refined five finished pills at once! is this real? Shang Wang gradually changed from disbelief at the beginning to ecstasy later. At this time, his whole body was trembling with excitement, and an indescribable joy filled his heart.
Usually, I can only refine three pieces at most, but for some reason today, there are two more pieces.
When Shang Wang was excited, it was his white eyebrows that were always injured. At this time, his white eyebrows were almost pulled off by him. Guo Xun's expression became a little weird when he looked at the inexplicably excited Shang Wang.
Master, what's going on! Didn’t he say that what he was refining was the alchemist’s introductory elixir? Why are you so excited? It's as if you have refined some top-quality elixir!
After getting excited, Shang Wang took out the five light blue elixirs in the alchemy cauldron, and then observed them carefully over and over in his hand.
After careful comparison, Shang Wang could not help but reveal a look of enthusiasm in his eyes, and his breathing became heavier. It turned out that all five of them were middle-grade spirit-gathering pills!
After a while, Shang Wang discovered that one of the Spirit Gathering Pills was round and crystal clear in color, which was quite different from the other four. Shang Wang's expression suddenly changed!
Could it be that this Spirit-Gathering Pill is more than just middle-grade?
Although Shang Wang is a third-grade alchemist, he has never refined any pill above the middle grade, and it can even be said that he has never even seen one.
The grades of elixirs are easy to classify, mainly based on the impurities contained in the elixirs. The fewer impurities, the higher the grade and the more spiritual the elixirs will be.
Impurities account for more than 60% of the elixir. This elixir is a waste elixir. This elixir is useless and even highly poisonous.
The impurities of low-grade elixirs are less, usually between 40% and 60%.
The impurities of the middle-grade elixir should be less than 40% but higher than 20%, while the impurities of the high-grade elixir should be between 10% and 20%.
As for the legendary top-quality elixir, the impurities are less than 10%. This elixir is extremely difficult to refine, and every step must be ensured to be close to perfection.
In order to achieve this step, the alchemist's skills must reach the level of perfection, and more importantly, his innate talent is the so-called spiritual root. The quality of the spiritual root directly determines the quality of your spiritual root. The quality of the spiritual fire.
However, this world always likes some exceptions. There are naturally many divine objects in this world, and the flames naturally generated between heaven and earth are also one of them. However, although this kind of psychic fire born in heaven and earth is the only choice for alchemists, it is too If it's too rare, it's completely rare.
It is very possible to refine the best elixirs with the most advanced alchemy technology and high-quality flames. Many alchemy masters will occasionally produce one or two top-quality elixirs throughout their alchemy career.
As for the legendary elixir that shocked the world and made ghosts and gods weep, it was truly a rare treasure. This elixir was completely natural and did not contain any impurities.
Once even the most common and low-level elixir reaches the immortal level, the effect of the elixir will increase exponentially.
Moreover, this kind of elixir also contains the laws of heaven and earth, because the elixir of immortality will cause heavenly calamity when channeling, and only the elixir that successfully survives the calamity can be called an elixir of immortality.
It is precisely because the immortal elixir has survived the thunder tribulation that the immortal elixir contains the laws of heaven and earth. The laws of heaven and earth are fatally attractive to any high-level cultivator.
