The first book that Linlong opened was the Basics of Alchemy.
After opening it, Linlong found that in addition to some basic pharmaceutical principles, the book mainly talked about the principles of refining the Qi-boosting Pill.
During the refining process, the medicinal power of various materials was fused together through a specific Runic Array and finally formed into the Qi-boosting Pill.
It was really surprising that this was how the Qi-boosting Pill came about. After understanding this, Linlong could not help but be amazed.
Previously, he was very confused about how the Qi-boosting Pill could contain such a powerful energy. Now that he saw the principle, he finally completely understood.
It must be because of the Runic Array in it.
Next, Linlong saw the content about the Runic Array. After reading it, Linlong was surprised again because he found that the runes used in the Runic Array were actually runes that he had never seen before.
This rune was called the Tai Qing Rune. At first glance, it was a little similar to the Tai Yi Rune. However, after taking a closer look, Linlong found that the two were very different.
Not only were there such a big difference in the runes, but even the structure was very different from the structure that Linlong had previously known.
Linlong knew the principles of alchemy at a glance. What gave him a headache was the Tai Qing Rune and the strange structure of the Runic Array.
Linlong knew nothing about the Tai Qing Rune. Even with such a structure, he had to carefully study it. Linlong could not help but frown.
He immediately picked up a few other books. After roughly skimming through them, his brows furrowed even deeper, because there was actually not a single one of these books that was related to the Grand Clear Talismans.
However, from this point, he could also see that the Tai Qing Rune should be a kind of ordinary knowledge in this world, unlike the Tai Yi Rune, which not many people in the Mutian Continent knew.
Linlong thought to himself, 'I should ask Song Liyan to see if he can help me find a book about the Tai Qing Rune.'
If he did not know about the Tai Qing Rune, it would be impossible for him to refine the Qi-boosting Pill.
Linlong quickly found Song Liyan.
As soon as he saw Linlong, Song Liyan said directly, "Brother Lin, father has already brought people to Mount Xinshui that you went to before."
"Yes." Linlong nodded and then asked, "Brother Liyan, do you have any books about the Tai Qing Rune?"
"You don't know about the Clear Qi Talisman?" Song Liyan asked curiously.
"I don't know. Brother Li Yan, why do you ask?" Lin Long was also puzzled.
Song Liyan could not help but smile awkwardly when he heard Lin Long's question. "I forgot that you're not someone from our world. The reason why I was surprised earlier was because anyone who wanted to come into contact with alchemy would seriously study the Clear Sky Runes. The Clear Sky Runes are the most basic runes in our world. Anyone who wants to learn it can basically learn it."
Linlong heaved a sigh of relief when he heard what Song Liyan said. "Brother Liyan, do you have such a book?"
"Ahem …" Song Liyan laughed awkwardly. "I'm not that ambitious."
"Then, where can I get such a book?" Linlong was a little speechless.
"Don't worry, Qiu Yun has been practicing the Tai Qing Talisman. She must have some books on it. Wait a moment, I'll get them for you," said Song Liyan.
"That's good." Linlong nodded.
Song Liyan did not leave immediately. Instead, he said, "Qiu Yun still doesn't know that you and Song Yue have 'disappeared'. Otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to eat now."
In the entire Feng An Village, only Song Liyan knew that Linlong and Song Yue were not missing.
After saying that, Song Liyan left.
Very soon, Song Liyan returned with seven to eight thick books in his arms.
"Are these all the Clear Sky Runes?" Even Linlong could not help but widen his eyes when he saw so many books.
"There's a lot of them. Let me tell you, these are only the basic knowledge," said Song Liyan.
Lin Long's face couldn't help but twitch when he heard that.
After taking a closer look, Linlong realized that these were really the basic knowledge of the Clear Sky Runes.
The Clear Sky Runes seemed to be far more complicated than the High One Runes. Linlong thought to himself.
However, after thinking about it, he felt relieved. After all, the High One Runes mainly came from a sect. As for the Clear Sky Runes, they originated from this world.
"Qiu Yun said that she was not in the mood to read these books. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to take them all," said Song Liyan.
"En, many thanks brother Li Yan." After saying that, Lin Long immediately took the books away.
After returning to the place where he stayed, Linlong naturally studied the Clear Sky Runes day and night.
Even he had spent three days to finish reading these books, and this was because he had a rich knowledge of runes. If it had been someone else, let alone three days, they might not have understood it even after three months.
In three days, Linlong had a deep understanding of the Clear Sky Runes. This understanding was enough for him to continue thinking about how to refine the Energy Strength Pill.
Next, Linlong naturally began to read the books that he had obtained from Li Sheng.
Apart from the first book, the next one mainly talked about the principles of medicine and runes.
Unknowingly, another two days passed. On the morning of the third day, Linlong, who had been burying his head in the study table, finally revealed a satisfied smile on his face.
At this moment, he was sketching a pattern on the table in front of him. If an alchemist from this world was here, he would be extremely surprised. This was because what Linlong had sketched on the table was a rune array for refining the Energy Strength Pill.
Now that he knew how to sketch such a rune array, the next step was to sketch the rune array that would be used in the refining process.
Lin Long took out a white palm-sized, finger-thick block from the Space Stone. This was a special kind of stone in this world. It was used to draw the Rune Magic Circle for refining the Qi-boosting Pill on it.
This kind of stone was not expensive. The difficult part was to sketch the rune array on it.
After that, Linlong took out a special pen. The tip of the pen was sharp. It was used to sketch the rune array on the stone.
Next, Linlong naturally began to use the pen to sketch the rune array on the stone.
Not long after, a rune array for refining the Energy Strength Pill was sketched on the white stone.
Due to the use of a special pen, every stroke of the Runic Magic Circle formed a tiny groove on the surface of the stone.
Then, Linlong took out a small cauldron and a red stone called a flint.
These were also obtained from Li Sheng's Space Stone.
Flint was a kind of stone that could stimulate flames. It was widely used in refining pills in this world.
The reason for this was naturally because there was no such thing as spiritual fire in this world.
In addition to the flint, there were other better things, but it was obvious that with Li Sheng's ability, this was the only thing he could come into contact with.
After taking out these equipment, Linlong began to configure the materials. For him, this was the easiest step because he had rich experience and knowledge in configuring materials.
If it were someone else, even if they spent a lot of time on this step, they might not be able to configure it successfully.
After configuring the materials, Linlong had to do the most crucial step, which was to start refining.
He first put some materials into the small cauldron, then ignited the flint. When the fusion reached a certain level, he put in other materials until all the materials were melted into a solution.
With his experience, Linlong did not make any mistakes in the process.
After doing this, it was the most difficult step. This step was to integrate the medicinal liquid into the rune array on the white stone slab.
If it could not be integrated, it would be useless even if one had profound knowledge in runes.
In this world, it was unknown how many people were ultimately unable to become an alchemist because of this reason.
One of the most important elements was mental strength, which was also known as divine will.
Immediately, Linlong carefully poured the solution in the small cauldron onto the white stone slab.
The solution in the small cauldron immediately rolled along the grooves of the rune array on the stone slab.
As soon as it was poured out, Linlong directly put the white stone slab into the small cauldron, then began to ignite the flint to continue refining.
This step was the most crucial part. It tested one's ability to control the flames. It had to be heavy in the areas that needed to be heavy, and light in the areas that needed to be light. Otherwise, it would be impossible to integrate the medicinal liquid into the entire runic magic array.
It was not difficult to control the flame. One only needed to use the energy in one's body to control it. The difficult part was that one did not know where to place the emphasis and where to place the emphasis.
To achieve this level, one needed to use mental strength, which was also known as divine will, because only divine will could let one know where to place the emphasis and how much firepower was needed.
Of course, one also needed to be familiar with the rune array and the solution. Otherwise, no matter how strong one's divine will was, it would be useless.
Under the perception of divine will, Linlong controlled the flame back and forth under the small droplet.
"Puff …"
After a while, the small cauldron suddenly emitted such green smoke.
This meant that Linlong's refining had failed. However, Linlong was not discouraged. After all, it was his first time refining this Strength Pill. Failure was inevitable, even if his experience, knowledge, and even divine will were stronger than ordinary people.
Immediately, Linlong began to configure the materials again.
