124 The Most Miserable Alchemist
Then, Song Qingfeng put away the alchemy furnace and turned around to leave.
Seeing that Song Qingfeng was about to leave, Dong Xi immediately shouted, “Senior Brother! Yes! I’ll rent it!”
There was probably no other alchemist in the cultivation world who was more miserable than Dong Xi. Every time she succeeded in refining a pill, one of them would go to Second Senior Brother!
Song Qingfeng was not surprised at Dong Xi’s words. He put down the pill furnace with a smile and said, “Since Junior Sister wants to rent it so much, then my pill furnace will stay with you.”
Looking at Dong Xi’s defeated face, Song Qingfeng turned around and left with a smile.
After Song Qingfeng left, Dong Xi was left alone in the alchemy room.
Dong Xi looked at the pill furnace in front of her and began to think.
it was said that a perfect furnace of pills had exactly ten pills, but there were only nine in the furnace just now. If she could make ten pills, one of them would be given to Second Brother.
As she thought about it, she suddenly realized that she did not feel so distressed anymore!
Dong Xi touched the jade pendant on her neck and took out the furnace explosion experience book from the medium.
Dong Xi was now studying more and looking more to see where she needed to improve.
One day, she would be able to make a perfect batch!
According to the book, Dong Xi had sorted out three main points: The first was to ensure that the impurities of the medicine were completely removed, leaving only the pure medicine. Any impurities could lead to the final failure.
The second was that the order in which the ingredients were mixed together during the process of congealing the pill also had some influence.
The third and most important point was that the pill formation technique had to be fast. If it was slow, it would affect the success rate of the pill formation later on!
After Dong Xi concluded, she sat on the ground and began to practice the hand seal technique. When her hand speed was very fast, Dong Xi slowly opened her eyes and began to refine the pill again.
Song Qingfeng came out of the alchemy room and went straight to his master’s cave.
His master had been in seclusion for a few days, and he did not know when he would come out. When he realized that his master had not come out, he could only leave behind a voice transmission talisman and turn to leave.
When Dong Xi had been in the alchemy room for a whole month, Master Lingxu had come out of seclusion.
During his seclusion, he had comprehended an ancient medicinal formula.
In ancient times, this place was filled with spiritual energy, and people’s cultivation improved very quickly. At that time, it was truly a place where hundreds of flowers bloomed.
Many people with special abilities had created cultivation techniques.
This time, what Lingxu comprehended was the medicinal formula that had been passed down to this day from that time. At that time, in order to be able to increase their cultivation faster, people wanted to hide the bad spirit roots and only focus on the best spirit roots. This way, they could avoid being distracted during cultivation, and it was also a kind of cultivation method.
This method was called the Spirit-Concealing Pill.
Master Lingxu clicked his tongue in wonder. The thoughts of the people of ancient times were really strange!
Lingxu stretched lazily. He thought of the two disciples he had taken in previously, and wondered how they were doing now.
Lingxu sensed the voice transmission talisman at the door. He waved his hand to open the restriction and put the voice transmission talisman away. The voice transmission talisman was placed in front of Lingxu, and it started to burn.
Song Qingfeng’s voice followed, “Master, Little Junior Sister has already started to refine pills, but there was a small accident. When you come out of seclusion, I will explain in detail.”
When Lingxu heard that something was wrong with Dong Xi, he immediately made a hand seal and asked Song Qingfeng to come over.
Song Qingfeng was summoned by his master. He did not cultivate and rushed to his master’s cave.
Song Qingfeng arrived at his master’s cave and shouted, “Master!”
Before he bowed, Master Lingxu directly asked, “What’s wrong with Dong Xi? I handed her over to you, how did you take care of her?”
Song Qingfeng immediately bowed and explained, “Master, this isn’t bad. We’ve probably all underestimated Little Junior Sister’s talent!”
When Master Lingxu heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he calmed down and asked, “What? what’s going on?”
“Little Junior Sister started refining pills a month ago, and she blew up five furnaces in a row!” Song Qingfeng said.
Master Lingxu’s expression turned serious when he heard this.
Ordinary disciples might not succeed in refining pills, but it was still very difficult to cause the furnace to explode.
“But the equipment refining sect only gave inferior products?” Lingxu asked.
Song Qingfeng shook his head and said, “No, it’s because her fire spiritual essence is special. According to my observation, although her fire attribute is not high, the temperature is very high. Ordinary elixir furnaces can’t withstand it.”
The high temperature of the fire spiritual energy was a good thing for alchemists. Some medicinal materials had a very high melting point. If the temperature was not high enough, they would need to rely on external help.
It was good if some could borrow external forces, but if they couldn’t, they could only watch and couldn’t do anything. There were many limitations.
