As Su Mo injected spiritual power into the alchemy furnace, a raging fire suddenly ignited in the alchemy furnace, and the temperature of the spiritual fire continued to roast the herbs in the alchemy furnace.
After thinking about it, Su Mo controlled the spiritual fire to become smaller again, and first let the small fire squeeze out the essence of the herbs.
When the essence of the herbal medicine was refined, Su Mo waved his hand, and the refined residue from the alchemy furnace flew out of the alchemy furnace.
The remaining medicinal energy continued to fuse and repel each other under the control of Su Mo's spiritual power...
Elder Du on the side just watched Su Mo refining the pill without making a sound or pointing out his mistakes, just watching quietly.
I don't know how long it took, but under Su Mo's operation, a black smoke suddenly emerged from the alchemy furnace, and many medicinal properties turned into nothingness...
Su Mo was stunned for a while. The first time he made alchemy in his life, he failed.
Elder Du on the side looked calm, as if he was expecting it.
"Why do you think it failed?" Elder Du walked to Su Mo's side and asked looking at the black smoke coming out of the alchemy furnace.
Su Mo stared at the alchemy furnace and shook his head in confusion.
He didn't know why it failed. According to his calculations on several medicinal properties, it should have succeeded, but reality slapped him mercilessly.
"Think again." Elder Du did not point out the key point of Su Mo's failure, but just drank the tea in his hand calmly.
Su Mo frowned and thought about it carefully, then turned to look at a few herbs on the side. When he saw one of the herbs that was smoking cold, he suddenly seemed to think of something and said excitedly:
"I know! It's 'Hanxing Dew'! 'Hanxing Dew' is cold in nature. I use high temperature to refine its medicinal properties, which will emit a strong chill. The cold makes the spiritual power in the alchemy furnace unstable, causing other medicinal properties to be cold. Rema's constant wandering finally led to the failure of alchemy..."
Su Mo turned to look at Elder Du, only to see Elder Du sigh and shake his head.
Su Mo was stunned...isn't it wrong?
Elder Du looked at Su Mo, sighed and said, "Your biggest mistake is actually that the first time you made alchemy, you wanted to make it..."
"Spring Love Pill!"
Su Mo was stunned and asked in confusion: "Can't you practice the Spring Love Pill?"
Su Mo's only impression of the elixir was that Daji said she had given Xuannv an aphrodisiac.
For a while, he couldn't think of any elixir that could be refined, so he just refined it casually.
Elder Du shook his head: "There is nothing that a pill practitioner cannot refine, but the refining of the Spring Love Pill is too difficult and is not suitable for the first time."
"But I don't know if there are any other elixirs... I've also heard people say that there is such a thing as the Spring Love Pill." Su Mo explained.
Elder Du thought for a while and said to Su Mo, "You can try to practice the Zhuyan Dan."
Su Mo shook his head and said he didn't know what Zhuyan Dan was.
Elder Du sighed and said: "The Beauty Pill, as the name suggests, is a pill that can make people look good forever."
"Although it can't keep a person's appearance forever, it can also slow down the aging of a person's appearance."
Su Mo asked doubtfully: "But can't cultivators themselves have permanent appearance?"
"It's just a small number of people, otherwise wouldn't all the monks in the world look like young people?" Elder Du smiled and shook his head.
Su Mo was stunned and looked up at Elder Du's gray hair and old face. He didn't understand why Elder Du was old since he was an alchemist himself.
However, he still didn't ask. He just clicked and calculated the medicinal properties of Zhuyan Dan in his mind. He found several necessary medicinal materials among the herbs on the side and started to refine the medicine again.
But Elder Du just sat aside, as if thinking of something, looking out the window in a slightly trance...
Soon, Su Mo once again ruined the batch of herbs.
However, Elder Du didn't seem to care. He just let Su Mo find and solve the problem on his own, without pointing out Su Mo's mistakes.
Su Mo recalculated the way of herbs, once again put a few herbs into the alchemy furnace, and refined them again...
Finally, the sky darkened.
Amidst the fragrance of medicine, the first batch of Zhuyan Dan was refined by Su Mo.
Su Mo looked at the several lustrous Beauty Pills in his hand, looking a little dazed.
I never thought that refining an elixir for the first time in my life would be so difficult...
"The Beauty Pill is not a basic elixir, so don't feel frustrated. You are already extremely talented if you can successfully refine the pill for the first time." Elder Du on the side looked at Su Mo and spoke with approval. .
Su Mo took a deep breath, bowed respectfully to Elder Du, handed a few Beauty Pills to Elder Du, and said with gratitude: "Thank you, Elder, for your help."
Since arriving at Medicine Mountain today, Elder Du not only didn't mind letting Su Mo watch while he was refining the elixir, but also let Su Mo refine the elixir himself when Su Mo gained some insights after watching the elixir refining.
Although it was just a few words of advice, Su Mo felt that those few words of advice played a very important role in his introduction to alchemy.
Elder Du glanced at Su Mo and asked with a kind smile on his face: "Is this enough?"
Su Mo was stunned and slowly shook his head.
Nature is not satisfied, and the alchemy path is ethereal and profound. Although it was just a day of watching and trying, Su Mo felt like he was eating the marrow and knowing the taste.
Elder Du looked at Su Mo and nodded, then said, "From now on, you will come to the medicine mountain every morning..."
Elder Du's words were like a stream of water, disturbing Su Mo's mood.
Su Mo looked at Elder Du, and suddenly there was a trace of complicated emotions in his eyes... He should have been ruthless, but he couldn't help it.
However, Su Mo still nodded: "Yes!"
Elder Du looked at the few Beauty Pills in Su Mo's hand and said, "Just take these Beauty Pills... People always have emotions for the things they refine for the first time. of."
"Keep it well. You can take it out for a look later when you are confused on the alchemy path."
"Thank you, elder." Su Mo put away the few beauty pills he had refined and said goodbye in the silence of Elder Du.
After Su Mo left, the medicine mountain returned to silence, and there was no sound.
Elder Du walked out of the thatched cottage and looked up to the sky, with a rare hint of tenderness in his expression.
A flying insect accidentally landed on Elder Du. Elder Du shook his head, gently raised it, and let it fly back into the vegetation.
Turning to look in the direction Su Mo was leaving, Elder Du's eyes showed a trace of approval unconsciously.
Elder Du raised his head and looked at the blue sky again, murmuring to himself:
"Le'er, today I met a young man who is extremely talented in elixirs..."
"His talent is just like yours back then, much better than mine."
After thinking about it, Elder Du sighed deeply unconsciously.
With separation and loneliness...
