Chapter 7 Refining Medicines
Chapter 7: Refining Medicine: Concealing the World ()
As Elder Xu said, Wan'er's departure did not cause too much trouble or obstacle for Xu Wen. First, the two of them only knew each other for twenty days, and their relationship was only about the relationship between brother and sister in cultivation; second, based on Xu Wen's 23-year-old soul thinking mode, it is not difficult to infer Wan'er's situation from the information obtained by Elder Xu and Wan'er's situation. At the same time, he believed that the patriarch of the Horton Clin family, the luxurious and majestic man, would never push his daughter into the fire pit and send Wan'er away. Perhaps as Elder Xu said, in order to give her a more "safe" place of cultivation.
After thinking about this, Xu Wen naturally calmed down and thought about the ways to solve the cultivation obstacles. He believed that one day the answer would be revealed in front of him, and the day he would meet again should not be far away.
With Xu Wen's current cultivation speed, the inner disciple is actually his belongings, but since Wan'er left, a new trouble has emerged...
Ding Yushan!
This guy who had entered the ranks of two-star and fifth-level ranks came back from the outskirts of the Hei Shui Mountains and immediately got ready to move after learning that Wan'er had left. He followed him several times when he was planning to go to Yaofeng to replenish herbs.
It's no wonder that if Wan'er left and waited for him, if there were no amulets, and if they entered Yao Peak, Ding Yushan would no longer have any scruples. He could take back the purple jade pendant when no one was around. Moreover, with Ding Yushan's arrogance, as long as he was given a chance, he would definitely return the shame of the previous period. Two-star five-level versus one-star eight-level rank, there was no suspense in the fight.
Xu Wen is not a person who likes to be beaten, and he doesn't want to return the purple jade pendant he has borrowed so quickly... He can't completely commit the dandy crime. He is forced to return to his house every time. After a day, he will rely on his old capital to practice.
Wait until late at night.
At two o'clock in the morning, even a man with iron can't resist the invasion of sleepy insects and falls in love with his dreams. Will a child like Ding Yushan stay outside for 24 hours without fear of hardship and fatigue?
Xu Wen had a storage bag on his waist and quietly walked out.
On the way, I passed by Ding Yushan's house, "Little punk, I really think I can't deal with you, I'll tell you to look good tomorrow." Tongxin snorted lightly, and then tiptoed towards Yaofeng.
Tonight, there were many clouds, the moon, and the stars were completely hidden. After leaving the building complex, there was no five fingers outside. Xu Wen took out a small piece of crystal from the storage bag, injecting magic, and the bright white light illuminated the road ahead.
Lighting crystals, a small invention in the refining industry, are attached to them. They can be activated with just a little magic power injected. The lighting range is not small, with a radius of about ten meters, and the maintenance time is about ten minutes (sustainable to use). They were originally used for lighting for registered disciples into the Blackwater Mountains, but now they are in use.
Without the lighting crystal, no matter how powerful Xu Wen is, he will not be able to find the medicinal materials he needs from the medicine peak. Even the fireballs cannot be summoned normally in that place.
Xu Wen turned back from Yaofeng in less than an hour, and the storage bag on his waist was bulging. He walked and shook it.
I returned to my house, closed the door, poured the medicine, opened the cauldron, and took some herbs that I had never used on weekdays and placed them in front of me.
“Huh?”
At the same time, a sudden and surprising sound came from a quiet room filled with the fragrance of medicine at the peak of the Seventh Medicine Peak.
In the quiet room, Elder Xu tilted his head and sat cross-legged in front of a half-person-high medicine cauldron. The fireworks in the furnace were rising like refining medicine, but his eyes fell on a smooth six-gloss-shaped mirror next to him. Inside the mirror was a small house of a registered disciple, a young man was tinkering with something inside.
If Xu Wen is present, he will definitely scold him, "This old peeping thief!"
Because the scene in the mirror was really the current situation in his room, laying medicine and opening a cauldron, every action fell into Elder Xu's eyes in detail.
But today's situation seems to be a little different.
At the first glance, Elder Xu found from the medicinal materials selected by Xu Wen that there are as many as twenty kinds of medicinal materials. Not to mention that Xu Wen has never refined them, the more the medicinal materials, the more complicated the refining process. What surprised Elder Xu the most was that many medicinal materials in this formula also had the shadow of three-star medicinal materials.
“Samsung elixir formula?”
Elder Xu couldn't sit still, and he didn't care about the medicine cauldron in front of him. His mind completely moved. He sat in a ball and watched Xu Wen skillfully turn off the medicine cauldron magic array, sit quietly, mobilize his magic power, and use fire elements to ignite the inner furnace of the medicine cauldron.
"Hey, this kid, he really plans to refine three-star pills!?"
Although it was far away that all the medicinal materials in front of Xu Wen were unable to tell what this kid planned to refine, he knew that this guy would definitely fail.
Three-star elixirs are completely different from one-star elixirs.
One star and two stars can only be considered an entry-level! Xu Wen, who has never relied on his own magic, has not even consolidated his foundation in the entry-level. Even if he is very smart and talented, he cannot directly break through from a rookie to the realm of a three-star alchemist!
The refining of three-star elixirs not only requires more than two stars of fire magic, but also requires a deep study on the understanding and changes of medicinal properties. Even if it is the Three-star Fire Magic, the refining of three-star elixirs will have a high failure rate. Xu Wen... is not qualified to refine three-star ammunition at all.
Even so, Elder Xu's eyes were still staring at the mirror. He wanted to see the reaction of future inner disciples who had been extremely smooth along the way after being frustrated.
As he expected...
Less than ten minutes after the refining of medicine began, the fire in the medicine cauldron was extinguished, and Xu Wen in the mirror began to clean up the black medicine residue in the medicine cauldron. Obviously, the first refining had ended in failure.
Elder Xu subconsciously shook his head and stroked his beard, and his eyes moved back to the medicine cauldron in front of him until Xu Wen in the mirror turned on the furnace again.
Xu Wen has changed the most commonly used spiritual refreshing pill on weekdays and no longer tried the three-star pills. He even opened the magic array of the medicine cauldron again.
Seeing this, Elder Xu immediately put away his thoughts and knew that this kid was going to practice the "Spiritual Pill" again to practice the fire method.
"Forget it, I'll take some time tomorrow to warn Lao Ding's little grandson, so as not to delay his cultivation progress by this stupid boy."
Elder Xu stroking his beards deeply.
After a while, when he subconsciously went to observe the situation in the mirror, he accidentally discovered that Xu Wen had changed direction, turned his back to the mirror, blocking the situation of the medicine cauldron...
If this kid hadn't taken some herbs from the pile of herbs every time and put them into the bottle after success, he would have thought Xu Wen had discovered the existence of "that thing".
After a long time, Elder Xu saw that Xu Wen had not changed his position, and gradually became too lazy to observe his back and began to concentrate on refining medicine.
“…Old voyeurism.”
In the room, Xu Wen cursed in his heart and breathed a sigh of relief after feeling the feeling of being peeped away.
It turned out that after learning that he was being monitored, Xu Wen knew that this voyeurist would definitely not give up on continuing to "observe". He half-inquired and verified a message from Senior Sister Mixue. The "Six-Star Image Teleportation Array" really exists in this world.
Only a magic array for image transmission, a special crystal, can achieve short-distance image transmission. Although special crystals are very rare, the Holdenklin family has one.
Xu Wen once experienced this kind of thing and could only be used to deal with some rookies with weak strength and no guards. With the memory in his mind, he quickly found a crystal of rice the size of a grain of rice placed in the corner of the bedside.
The location is very good and it happens to radiate to all the situations inside the house.
Xu Wen naturally won't destroy it.
This kind of crystal is very expensive. If you don’t do it properly, you will annoy Elder Xu. Anyway, he has no habit of being naked on weekdays, so he gritted his teeth and endured it. But this time...
Humph.
Xu Wen sat cross-leggedly just blocking the monitoring of the refining process by Jingshi. After refining the medicine, he picked up the bottle filled with cool liquid from under the medicine cauldron, plugged the bottle mouth with a wooden plug, and put it into the storage bag on his knee;
The technique lightly took out some medicinal materials from the storage bag, and then pretended to take some medicinal materials from the "small hill" next to it... Open the energy-gathering magic array attached to the medicine cauldron, and while "automatically" refining medicine, he continued to sit cross-legged and regulate his breathing, restoring the almost dry magic consumed by the medicine.
Elder Xu failed to calculate completely...
He did not calculate the effect of the purple jade pendant. Xu Wen, who is close to the first-star and ninth level, had the help of the purple jade pendant continuously inputting magic power. If he had magic power of two-star and above, plus the "Zui Qingfeng" medicine refining experience engraved in his mind, he had only failed twice and had completely mastered the medicine refining experience and succeeded. However, in "Introduction to Alchemy Knowledge", there were only a few experiences in refining three-star elixirs. He pretended to fail. If Elder Xu saw through it, his feet would be too big!
In order to punish the boy Ding Yushan and avoid Elder Xu's peeping, Xu Wen also thought about it in the room for most of the day, and finally thought of this complete plan of "hiding the world and hiding the sea".
He successfully refined several bottles of "Drunk Breeze", and he squandered all the herbs around him. After finishing his breathing, Xu Wen held the porcelain bottle full of "Drunk Breeze", and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips:
Everything is ready!
