Reading on a mobile phone.
Lin Tian placed his hand on the "forging mouth" of the black cauldron. Immediately, his True Yuan flowed through the internal channels.
.
.
"Chi!"
With a muffled sound, white smoke rose from the black cauldron. Then, a ball of flame appeared.
The flame was pale yellow and rolled like small waves.
"This is the alchemic fire. However, this alchemic fire is meaningless. It still needs to be controlled with one's mind."
Lin Tian muttered.
The nascent alchemic fire was only produced by True Yuan through the internal structure of the black cauldron. It did not have the ability to refine pills. The alchemist still needed to control and condense it to stabilize the alchemic fire. This step was the first difficult part of the alchemic process. There was no special technique. It was completely dependent on one's talent and countless practice.
Lin Tian focused on the interior of the black cauldron.
His mind, energy, and spirit were highly concentrated as he gazed at the nascent dan fire in the cauldron. The vital essence that surged out of his right hand started to have a frequency. Bit by bit, he adjusted the speed of the influx, causing the dan fire in the black cauldron to jump again and again, becoming more and more solid. This process took about half a quarter of an hour. After half a quarter of an hour, the alchemic fire in the black cauldron suddenly became incomparably quiet. Lin Tian looked at the internal flame from a close distance. He could not feel it burning.
"Good!"
A glint flashed across Lin Tian's eyes.
According to the "Medicine Encyclopedia", the step of condensing the alchemic fire was considered complete.
Taking a deep breath, he recalled the proportions of the various ingredients needed to refine the Fasting Pill in his mind. After recalling the temperature of the alchemic fire at each stage, he opened the cauldron lid and threw a stalk of blood grass, thirty drops of morning dew, and a bunch of five grains into the cauldron. Then, he carefully closed the cauldron lid.
"Open..."
"Chi!"
Lin Tian was about to start when a sizzling sound was heard. The blood grass that was thrown into the cauldron was directly charred black by the alchemic fire. Many of the thirty drops of morning dew were directly vaporized by the scorching heat of the alchemic fire. Lin Tian was not upset about this. He was very calm. He knew that alchemy was similar to alchemy. It was impossible to succeed in one step.
Shaking his head, Lin Tian began forging again.
Following this, he failed thirteen times in a row. He either burned the Blood Grass to ashes, completely evaporated the Morning Dew, or burnt the Five Grains until they were black and smelly. However, these thirteen failures were naturally not meaningless. Each of these thirteen failures allowed him to accumulate some experience and finally touch the edge of success.
"Continue."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
Lin Tian held his breath and concentrated. Once again, he placed the Blood Grass, Morning Dew, and Five Grains into the black cauldron.
"Buzz!"
The flames surged and enveloped all the medicinal herbs in the blink of an eye.
Lin Tian stared intently at the interior of the cauldron. He placed his right hand on the "forging" of the black cauldron and flicked his five fingers. Instantly, the power of fire surged forth, causing the alchemy fire within the black cauldron to flicker faintly. Back when he was in the First Heaven, he had refined a fire crystal. His vital essence had naturally nurtured the power of fire. After thirteen failures, Lin Tian discovered that the power of fire in his vital essence could make the alchemy fire more condensed and easier to control. The effects of alchemy were also better.
His expression was solemn. His five fingers moved rhythmically. With each movement, the alchemy fire flickered. At this moment, the alchemy fire within the black cauldron was divided into several parts. Each part had a different temperature. Under Lin Tian's control, the alchemy fire enveloped the Blood Grass, Morning Dew, and Five Grains. It began to burn and refine the essence of each medicinal herb.
Controlling the temperature of each part of the alchemy fire within the cauldron was the second difficulty in the alchemy process. After more than ten failures, Lin Tian finally reached the level where he could freely adjust the temperature of the alchemy fire within the cauldron by relying on the "Five Dragon Divine Flash" technique. Gradually, the Blood Grass was incinerated, the Five Grains melted, and the Morning Dew danced in mid-air within the cauldron.
"Condense!"
Lin Tian softly spat out a word. His expression became even more solemn.
His five fingers moved more and more frequently, urging the alchemy fire of different temperatures to envelop the incinerated Blood Grass and the melted Five Grains. Then, a ball of alchemy fire enveloped the Morning Dew, turning it into a scorching wave of dew that enveloped the incinerated Blood Grass and the melted Five Grains. It was also at this moment that Lin Tian's five fingers stopped moving. Instead, he urged the True Essence of Fire to calm the alchemy fire within the black cauldron and control the temperature to the same point.
One could see the alchemy fire burning within the cauldron.
Beads of sweat gradually appeared on Lin Tian's forehead. His face was slightly pale. Clearly, the alchemy process was very taxing on his essence, Qi, and spirit. Throughout the entire night, he had tried more than ten times. He had only rested once midway. At this moment, his True Essence was almost depleted. His essence, Qi, and spirit were also severely depleted. He felt like he was about to collapse.
Time flew by quickly.
Inside the cauldron, several medicinal herbs were fused together. Under the burning of the alchemy fire, waves of churning and gurgling sounds could be heard.
"Buzz!"
The alchemy fire burned, sometimes incomparably hot, sometimes as gentle as water.
Soon, a quarter of an hour had passed. The several medicinal herbs in the cauldron had completely fused together, turning into a light gray sticky substance the size of a baby's fist.
"The final step."
A trace of light flashed through Lin Tian's eyes. He took a deep breath. The True Essence in his left hand pulsed, and he pressed it hard on his right hand. Suddenly, the alchemy fire within the cauldron trembled, as if it had turned into numerous alchemy fire swords. Again and again, the alchemy fire in the center of the cauldron cut open the light gray sticky substance, turning it into thumb-sized balls.
The final step, the formation of the alchemy core.
This step was the final difficulty of the alchemy process. Lin Tian's remaining essence, Qi, and spirit were highly concentrated. His control of True Essence also became more condensed and stable. After another quarter of an hour, the small balls in the black cauldron became perfectly round. A light gray luster flickered and trembled within the alchemy fire.
Lin Tian's eyes flickered, and he stopped.
This was the completed Fasting Pill!
His left hand shook, and the lid of the cauldron opened. With a wave of his hand, he took out a dozen Fasting Pills.
The Fasting Pills had just been taken out of the cauldron, and they were still faintly warm. Lin Tian picked one up, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it. A moment later, he couldn't help but nod his head. The first time he refined a Fasting Pill, the result was beyond his imagination. The quality was much better than the ones in his stone ring.
"Not bad."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
To be honest, he was very happy to reach this level in one night.
The sky gradually brightened. Lin Tian put away the Fasting Pills and the black cauldron. He walked out of the hall and returned to the front. After a night of alchemy, his True Essence was severely depleted. He sat cross-legged in front of the hall, facing the morning sun, and cultivated the Four Extremes Scriptures. After a quarter of an hour, he stopped and returned to the hall to rest and recover his True Essence.
In the blink of an eye, night fell again.
At this time, Lin Tian woke up. After tidying himself up, he returned to the hall and continued his alchemy cultivation.
Forging pills and refining pills was an extremely rigorous process. He could not allow others to disturb him, or it was extremely likely for him to fail halfway through the refinement. As a result, when he cultivated the Way of Pills, Lin Tian would always choose to do it late at night. At night, he did not have to worry about being disturbed. He could devote himself to cultivating the Way of Pills.
Taking out the black cauldron and the herbs, Lin Tian took a deep breath and directly immersed himself in alchemy.
In the following ten days, Lin Tian took six hours to rest during the day, six hours to cultivate the Four Extremes Scriptures, and six hours to refine his divine sense. At night, he went to the hall and cultivated alchemy according to the Medicine Encyclopedia's alchemy manual. During these ten days, he went to the Hall of True Treasures several times to exchange for various materials. He refined the True Energy Pill, Blood Staunching Powder, and Spirit Concentrating Pill.
Of course, these were all first grade Baodan pills.
Another day passed. Lin Tian tried to refine a second grade Baodan. After three days, he finally succeeded.
After ten days of alchemy, Lin Tian discovered that the True Energy in his body had become much more condensed and vigorous. Moreover, his spiritual energy had also become much stronger. Even his cultivation level had increased. This caused Lin Tianwei to comprehend something. It seemed that no matter which Dao one chose, it would have a beneficial effect on the path of cultivation.
The full moon hung high in the sky, sprinkling down silver light.
"Now, I have barely reached the level of a second grade alchemist."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
It had to be said that the reason he could reach the level of a second grade alchemist so quickly was because his cultivation level was high. Moreover, he cultivated the Art of Controlling Arrays. To a certain extent, the cultivation of the Art of Controlling Arrays had some similarities with the Art of Alchemy. Therefore, the starting point of his alchemy training was much higher than the average person. For an average person, it was basically impossible to reach the level of a second grade alchemist without at least three to five years.
Lin Tian put away the black cauldron herbs, closed his eyes, and began to read the secret techniques of the Medicine Encyclopedia.
One of the reasons why he chose to cultivate the Art of Alchemy was because of the mystical secret techniques in the Medicine Encyclopedia.
"Seal of Flame, Seal of Burning Heart, Seal of Refining Flame."
Lin Tianyi's eyes flashed as he scanned his path.
Previously, with the help of the Godly Sword, he had already mastered the Seal of Refining Flame. Now, he began to comprehend other secret techniques.
Just like that, another two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Lin Tian faced the morning sun and breathed in and out for a while. Just as he was about to rest, Bai Qiu ran up from the foot of the mountain, "Hey, Limitless Immortal School will have an honorary alchemist elder concocting pills in public today.
"Honorary alchemist? Publicly refining pills? "
Lin Tianyi was stunned.
Bai Qiu said, "The Ten Great Sects all have honorary alchemists. They are invited from some alchemist families. The Limitless Sect naturally has one as well. Every year, they invite these alchemists to publicly refine pills to broaden the knowledge of their disciples."
"There are alchemist families in the Second Heaven?"
Lin Tianyi was stunned.
He had not paid much attention to this before. Now that he heard this, he was slightly curious.
"Of course there are. The most powerful alchemist families in this Heaven are comparable to the Ten Great Sects, or even more powerful," Bai Qiu said. "These alchemist families not only know how to refine pills, but also pass down many offensive secret techniques in the Art of Alchemy. Their strength and wealth are astonishing."
