Chapter 13 Alchemy Common Sense

In the next few days, Xia Houtian came in the morning and returned in the evening. The diligent learner Elder Yao's experience in alchemy. Although he swallowed dates, he also gained a lot.

On this day, Xia Houtian came to the Yaowang Cave. Elder Yao did not explain the alchemy knowledge to him as usual, but asked seriously, "What have you gained about alchemy these days?"

He knew that this was the medicine elder who was studying for him. The alchemy knowledge he had learned in the past few days kept flashing in his mind. He sorted it out for a moment and said, "The elders teach carefully. The disciples have a little gain, but I don't know whether it's right or wrong. Please give me some advice."

Elder Yao brushed his beard, smiled and replied calmly, "But it doesn't matter. Let me see your achievements during this period of time, so that you can understand how much you have learned."

When Elder Yao said so, Xia Houtian no longer hesitated and slowly said his ideas: "My disciples think that the key to the extensive and profound alchemy lies in the matching of medicinal materials and the mastery of the heat. Secondly, there are also a lot of requirements for cultivation, which tests the alchemists' grasp of the timing and the specialization of the elixir."

Xia Houtian's voice paused for a moment, and Yu Guang looked at the elder of medicine. Seeing that he couldn't help nodding, he was immediately relieved. Then he said, "Alchemy, the first elixir, if the elixir is slightly deviated, it can't become elixir. Secondly, it should be difficult to integrate. If you can't accurately grasp the medicinal properties of various medicinal materials, you can't perfectly integrate, or even become elixir; this Finally, it should be refined. If there is no precise control of divine consciousness, it is impossible to remove turbidity and clear it. In this way, even if it becomes elixir, it will lose most of its effect and become a waste product.

As Xia Houtian kept clearing out his thoughts and slowly saying his ideas, Elder Yao also changed from satisfaction to surprise. He couldn't help sighing that his understanding was high, and there was a big idea for a generation of new people to replace the old.

It's just that Xia Houtian had been fully committed at this time and didn't notice the expression of Elder Yao at all, so he didn't know how surprised his idea was to Elder Yao.

Half an hour later, Xia Houtian said all the learning and his thoughts, and had a deeper understanding of alchemy, but it was not easy to think deeply for a while, and only to understand it later.

"That's right. It's really rare to have such insight in a few days. It seems that I'm not mistaken. I hope you can study hard and practice hard. He is famous in the immortal world, which is also just around the corner."

"The elders joked. The disciples are stupid. They only hope to learn more from the elders. How dare they have such an idea."

"Kid, modesty is a good thing, but excessive modesty is pretentious. It is despised by our generation of immortals. We should be fearless. How can we be so demeanor?"

Elder Yao's face was stiff and revealed a trace of displeasure, but Xia Houtian seemed to have some understanding. He thought about it for a long time, showing a sudden understanding and said with a serious look, "Thank you for the teaching, my disciples understand."

"Okay, I have taught most of the knowledge of alchemy, and the rest can only be slowly understood in your future practice. Today, I will officially teach you alchemy. You can follow me."

Yoowang Cave, Alchemy Room

"Today, I will teach you the "True Secret of Bright Light and Wonderful Heart". I will refine a furnace of Qi Dan for a while. You watch and pay attention to my refining technique."

Finally, it was officially alchemy. Xia Houtian was excited and showed a happy look on his face.

Elder Yao waved his sleeves, and dozens of jade boxes and a purple-gold elixir furnace appeared out of thin air. He did not look back and said to Xia Houtian, "Alchemists have their own alchemy furnaces. This is the real fire five elements furnace, which is the top product of the elixir furnace. It is a rare treasure. I also got this furnace by chance. You haven't built the foundation yet. In the future, you can use the stove in the room.

I saw the medicine elder hit the magic decision. The elixir furnace floated out of thin air, and a three-color flame floated under the furnace. The medicine elder pinched the formula with his left hand, waved his right hand, and the jade box was opened. The medicinal materials inside floated into the elixir furnace. He explained in his mouth: "It is best to place the medicinal materials in the jade box to prohibit the seal, so that the medicine can be guaranteed."

The medicinal herbs are put in the elixir furnace in turn. Under the firing of the three-color flame, they are constantly refined, and the temperature around them rises sharply.

An hour later, with the last taste of medicinal herbs was put in, the medicine elder's method changed, the elixir furnace was closed, and the essence of all the medicinal herbs continued to merge in the furnace. Xia Houtian was concentrated and did not dare to miss it at all. He knew that the elixir refining elixir was not what ordinary people could see.

A moment later, the elder of medicine tightened his expression, his eyes flashed, and he shouted "disease". The elixir furnace opened, and a strong medicinal fragrance entered Xia Houtian's nose. The medicinal fragrance rushed into his nose with his breath, and he only felt a boost, and the operation of true qi seemed to accelerate a little.

A white jade bottle flew out. With the decision of the elder of medicine, the round and smooth elixir kept falling into the bottle, with as many as ten grains, and then sealed the jade bottle and threw it to Xia Houtian.

Seeing the jade bottle thrown, Xia Houtian quickly grabbed it. He looked very shocked and asked, "This is..."

Elder Yao did not smile and said calmly to Xia Houtian, "This elixir is a qi elixir. I don't need it anymore. It's just to give you a demonstration. It's refined. It hasn't been refined for many years. It barely reached the lower level of the boutique, so I'll give it to you."

Hearing this, Xia Houtian was very happy, because this practice elixir can just help him increase his cultivation, and it is also a high-quality elixir, and he did not refuse, and happily accepted it.

"You don't have enough cultivation. Although "Danxia Tips" is mysterious, you still can't condense the three flavors of real fire. In the future, you can refine it with the ground fire. The bronze elixir furnace in this room is placed on the ground fire. As long as the real gas input, it can attract the ground fire. It is very convenient. You can also put away these jade boxes for the medicinal materials in the future."

Elder Medicine gave a lot of gifts, and they were all the materials needed for his alchemy. Xia Houtian was very happy. He was even more grateful to Elder Medicine, and his doubts in his heart faded slightly.

"Alchemy should also understand the quality and properties of medicinal materials. There is still some time today, so let's talk to you."

"Listen to the teachings of the elders."

A blue light flashed, and the two disappeared in place, with a trace of medicinal fragrance left, as if recording what had happened just now.

Qingyun School Back Mountain, Baicao Garden

It was dark in front of him. Xia Houtian instinctively closed his eyes tightly and felt a glimmer of light. He slowly opened his eyes, and a variety of herbs were all over his eyes. "Ah" exclaimed.

Elder Yao seemed to have guessed Xia Houtian's performance, which was not strange. He slowed down and said slowly, "This is the place where herbs are planted. It is called Baicao Garden. It is the important place of this school. You can collect alchemy here in the future. I will tell the stewids here that I will let you go."

Xia Houtian is very happy. Although he has heard of Baicao Garden for a long time, registered disciples are not allowed to enter. Unexpectedly, he can come often in the future, and he can't help but be excited.

Then, Xia Houtian followed the elder of medicine to watch the hundred grass garden. The garden was full of aura, the fragrance of medicine, and the colorful herbs were all over it. It was rare and gorgeous.

Xia Houtian's eyes were shocked, and he did not escape the eyes of Elder Yao. Elder Yao stretched out his hand and said to Xia Houtian, "The Baicao Garden was opened by the first generation of ancestors in the place of our Qingyun School. Over the years, after the cultivation and addition of disciples in the door, there are already many kinds. As long as the herbs are usually needed, the garden should There is everything, enough for you to refine it.

After a pause, Elder Yao continued, "You have a preliminary understanding of the art of alchemy, but you still need to learn this art of drug differentiation. Next, I will tell you about this art of drug differentiation."

"The art of distinguishing medicine is actually very simple. As long as you have a strong memory, understand the living environment of medicinal materials, be familiar with the medicinal conditions, and apply more, you can experience it. Here is a book of the Golden Sutra I wrote, which records all the strange worms and elixir prescriptions I know, which may be helpful to you."

After saying that, the elder medicine gave Xia Houtian a book written with unknown materials, and then took Xia Houtian to continue to browse the Baicao Garden and explained some special herbs in detail to facilitate Xia Houtian's memory.

Xia Houtian was naturally very happy. He was very attentive to memorize every word that Elder Yao said, for fear of missing a trace. For Xia Houtian's performance, Yao Chang was also very satisfied. He sighed that this disciple did not teach wrong, and also envied that he had a good vision.

In fact, Elder Yao has also heard about the popular behavior, but because of the strange temperament, he has not paid much attention to it. Elder Jiedan should not deliberately mutilate the disciples in the family. In addition, the status of the two is equal, so it is not convenient to ask more questions, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

You should know that the most taboo between immortals is to explore each other's secrets. After all, everyone has their own secrets, which is not convenient for outsiders to know.

Through the explanation of the medicine elder, Xia Houtian knows that people are divided into five elements, and the same is true of herbs. In terms of Tianqingcao, the main material of Qidan, it is a wood attribute medicinal material. When refining, fire attribute auxiliary materials are the best matched.

And the elders of medicine accidentally mentioned that there is a kind of five-color divine land in the immortal world, which is the best wonder to cultivate herbs and can accelerate the growth of herbs.

The person who said it was unintentional and the listener was intentional. Xia Houtian couldn't help thinking of the five-color mountain in the "Hongmengjing". The description of Elder Yuyao was extremely consistent, and he decided to wait until he left.

I felt that Xia Houtian was distracted. Elder Yao thought he had said too much, so he stopped explaining: "That's all for today. I think you are tired. After you go back, think about it carefully and try to understand it as soon as possible. Starting tomorrow, you will try to refine the elixir alone. If you have any problems, you don't have to come to see me in Yaowang Cave. Just go straight to the alchemy room, but you have to hand in half of the elixir to the sect. This is the custom in the family, and you can't be an exception.

"The disciple understands that the elder is so loving, and the disciple will not be ignorant of good or bad. He will definitely deliver it in full, but the disciple is inexperienced. I'm afraid he can't refine much. I hope the elder will understand."

"It doesn't matter. As long as you hand over half of the refined elixir, the rest can be distributed by yourself. After all, alchemy takes time and energy, and the sect will not be so inhumane. You can rest assured and don't worry about it."

"Then I'm relieved. The elder, take your time. It's still early now. I still have to distinguish one or two here. Please forgive me."

"It's good to work hard, but you should also be relaxed. Only by doing everything according to your ability can you move forward steadily."

"Disciples, remember to send the elders."

Elder Yao disappeared into the hundred grass garden in an instant. Xia Houtian faintly felt a trace of Zhenyuan's fluctuation. He was happy, and there was a trace of excitement in his tone: "It seems that it is not far from the breakthrough."

Then there was a little loss on his face. Xia Houtian still didn't know what Fengxing had for him, but in the dark, he felt that the danger was approaching, like a huge net covering him. He was like a chess piece, being played with at will, but there was nothing he could do.

"One day, my future does not need to be controlled by others. I want to control my own destiny." Xia Houtian swore secretly in his heart that his expression was full of fighting spirit, and there was a blazing light in his eyes, as if everything was not far away.
