Chapter 21: First Alchemy Refining

After returning to the room!

Ye Qingxuan activated the array of the small courtyard to avoid anyone disturbing him again.

Although the exchange with Su Daobin let Ye Qingxuan know a lot of information, this did not affect the path Ye Qingxuan had already planned.

The disturbances in the outside world have nothing to do with him; he only needs to absorb some information useful to himself and integrate it into his planned path.

But he will not change his path because of others.

The road is ultimately walked by oneself, and what can be trusted is only oneself. Others' experience can only be used for reference!

His heart returned to calm, and Ye Qingxuan took out the purchased alchemy furnace to begin refining.

After spending half a day refining and controlling the Mid-grade magic treasure level alchemy furnace, the time had come to late at night.

Ye Qingxuan didn't rush to refine pills, but sat cross-legged and began to meditate to restore the consumed spiritual power and spiritual sense!

Until the early morning of the next day, Ye Qingxuan, after a night of adjustment, had adjusted his state to the peak, and only then did he take out the alchemy furnace again to start refining pills.

Qi Refining Realm cultivators have too low a cultivation base and cannot condense Dao fire.

So for low-order cultivators like Ye Qingxuan to use, the bottom of the magic treasure level alchemy furnace has a fire seed, and the inner wall is also engraved with an array to assist in control.

When using it, you only need to inject spiritual power to activate it, and you can stimulate the Dao fire to assist in alchemy.

Ye Qingxuan took out a portion of Qi-Inducing Pill spiritual herbs and placed them beside him, then activated the Dao fire of the alchemy furnace with spiritual power, and finally performed the Fire Control Technique he had just learned not long ago to slowly control the Dao fire.

He didn't rush to put the spiritual herbs in for refining, but used the Fire Control Technique to slowly maintain the Dao fire and nourish the alchemy furnace!

The refining method of the Qi-Inducing Pill had already been memorized in Ye Qingxuan's mind, so although it was his first time refining pills, Ye Qingxuan was still extremely calm in his heart!

When the alchemy furnace was nourished enough, Ye Qingxuan then sequentially took the Qi-Inducing Pill spiritual herbs into the alchemy furnace with spiritual power.

At the same time, Ye Qingxuan's spiritual sense probed into the alchemy furnace to observe the entire process of the spiritual herbs melting.

Ordinary cultivators below the late Qi Refining stage do not have spiritual sense, and refining pills can only rely on spiritual power perception and experience to control the heat.

So cultivators below the late Qi Refining stage, no matter how good their alchemy talent is, cannot avoid making multiple mistakes.

The spiritual sense born in advance is Ye Qingxuan's advantage, and it is also one of the reasons why Ye Qingxuan dared to try refining pills so early.

Sky Blue Flower, Purple Spirit Grass, and Spirit-Inducing Flower, these three spiritual herbs for refining Qi-Inducing Pills have different heat resistance, so the order and time of putting them into the alchemy furnace are crucial.

After all, with Ye Qingxuan's current realm, he cannot delicately allow different temperatures to appear in different areas of the alchemy furnace.

Under Ye Qingxuan's spiritual sense observation, the three spiritual herbs were slowly refined by the Dao fire, the impurities were excluded and dropped one by one, leaving only the essence of the three spiritual herbs rising and falling in the Dao fire of the alchemy furnace.

Ye Qingxuan saw this, and his heart was happy!

Seeing that the time was ripe, Ye Qingxuan used one mind for two purposes, while controlling the three strands of spiritual herb essence to slowly approach and fuse, while increasing the transmission of spiritual power, performing the Fire Control Technique, and slowly increasing the temperature of the Dao fire.

Time passed bit by bit, the three strands of spiritual herb essence in the alchemy furnace began to intertwine and fuse, and the entire alchemy furnace also began to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, pouring it into the spiritual herb essence that was about to fuse.

"Looks like it's almost done!"

Just as the Qi-Inducing Pill was about to take shape, and Ye Qingxuan thought it was about to be a success.

But he didn't expect the Dao fire controlled by Ye Qingxuan to jump slightly, and the temperature inside the alchemy furnace changed instantly.

And the pill that was about to take shape was affected by the Dao fire, the internal balance was suddenly broken, and the entire spiritual herb essence began to riot.

Ye Qingxuan saw this, hurriedly increased the driving force of the Fire Control Technique, attempting to save the situation.

But when Ye Qingxuan performed the Fire Control Technique, he found that he could no longer control the Dao fire in the alchemy furnace.

Realizing that it was impossible to do anything, Ye Qingxuan didn't force it anymore, and watched indifferently as the spiritual herb essence was burned away by the Dao fire.

Looking at the black smoke rising above the alchemy furnace, Ye Qingxuan was not discouraged, nor did he regret the loss of spiritual herbs, but began to reflect on himself.

This alchemy failure was not caused by Ye Qingxuan not fully mastering the refining process of the Qi-Inducing Pill.

On the contrary, after this attempt, Ye Qingxuan knew that relying on his amazing comprehension, the refining process he memorized and understood in his mind was no problem!

The main reason for this failure was that he was too conceited.

Thinking that relying on the spiritual sense born in advance and the extraordinary comprehension brought about by the transformation of the soul origin, he could easily refine pills.

But Ye Qingxuan ignored his control over the Fire Control Technique and spiritual power!

The Fire Control Technique is a spell in the alchemy inheritance. Ye Qingxuan only practiced it a few times. After the Fire Control Technique was introduced, he hurriedly went out to buy an alchemy furnace to prepare for alchemy.

And Ye Qingxuan's control over spiritual power was also very rough.

Ye Qingxuan was in retreat for five years, basically all used for meditation to improve his cultivation base, and he didn't polish his spiritual power at all to strengthen his control over his own spiritual power.

This is also the main reason for this alchemy failure:

The spiritual power transmission went wrong, leading to the Dao fire moving abnormally, gradually rioting out of Ye Qingxuan's control.

And the introductory Fire Control Technique could not control the rioting Dao fire, leading to him being unable to save the out-of-control situation!

After Ye Qingxuan knew the reason for his problem, he reflected:

"Sharpening the knife does not delay the work of cutting wood. It seems that in the future, we still need to plan before acting! Take it slow!"

A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. Although the problem exposed this time was small, it needed to be taken as a warning.

Otherwise, this time it was the loss of a furnace of spiritual herbs, next time I don't know what will be lost...

Putting the alchemy furnace into the storage ring, Ye Qingxuan didn't try to refine the second furnace of pills.

Since he knew the reason for his failure, what he needed to do now was naturally to make up for his shortcomings!

So, in the next month, Ye Qingxuan didn't try alchemy again.

Except for daily meditation and cultivation, Ye Qingxuan used the rest of his time to practice the Fire Control Technique, Sword Control Technique, and Spring Breeze Transformation Rain Technique!

The Fire Control Technique and Sword Control Technique are spells that Ye Qingxuan needs to use now, and the practice time is ranked first.

And the Spring Breeze Transformation Rain Technique is prepared by Ye Qingxuan for the future development of the Blessed Land. He doesn't need it for now, so Ye Qingxuan only performs it a few times a day and didn't spend much time practicing!

While practicing spells, Ye Qingxuan's control over spiritual power was also constantly improving.

Just like this, in the following month, Ye Qingxuan was either meditating and cultivating in the room and practicing the Fire Control Technique!

Or practicing the Sword Control Technique and Spring Breeze Transformation Rain Technique on the mountain peaks around the Blessed Land Cultivator Courtyard!

The Xuantian Mountain Range is very large, and no one has built a cave dwelling around the Blessed Land Cultivator Courtyard, so Ye Qingxuan didn't worry that he would disturb others.

In just one month, the proficiency level of the three low-level spells mastered by Ye Qingxuan progressed by leaps and bounds.

The Sword Control Technique and Fire Control Technique had reached the realm of perfection, and the Spring Breeze Transformation Rain Technique had also become small-scale.

It must be said that although Ye Qingxuan was shackled by his spiritual roots, leading to a very slow cultivation speed, his comprehension was indeed very amazing!

One month later!

Ye Qingxuan opened the furnace to refine pills again.

This time, the refining of the Qi-Inducing Pill was very smooth. Under Ye Qingxuan's perfect-level Fire Control Technique, it was almost a matter of course that it succeeded.

For the first furnace of pills, Ye Qingxuan produced five pills!

For the second furnace of pills, Ye Qingxuan produced six pills!

For the third furnace of pills, Ye Qingxuan produced six pills!

However, because alchemy is extremely consuming of spiritual power.

In order not to affect his cultivation, Ye Qingxuan only refines three furnaces of Qi-Inducing Pills a day.

After spending ten days, Ye Qingxuan finally refined 29 portions of Qi-Inducing Pill spiritual herbs into pills.

A total of 230 Qi-Inducing Pills were refined!

The reason why so many Qi-Inducing Pills were refined is that with the continuous improvement of Ye Qingxuan's alchemy proficiency, in the last few days, he had stabilized the number of pills per furnace of Qi-Inducing Pills at ten!

Up to this point, Ye Qingxuan's alchemy career finally stepped into the first threshold! ===== CHAPTER 22 =====
