After the old man finished explaining, he left in satisfaction. Closing the door of the secret room, the old man stood outside the secret room, his old face once again bursting into a happy smile.
"Unexpected, unexpected. This time I really picked up a treasure! Qin Yi this little guy, I'm afraid he still doesn't know how heaven-defying his alchemy talent is. En, en, this old man has to keep this matter a secret and can't leak out. Otherwise, the other countries' academies will definitely wave their shovels to poach him again. Even Lord Palace Lord can't tell for the time being. If Lord Palace Lord feels that Qin Yi's alchemy will affect his cultivation, wouldn't it be a waste of this little guy's great alchemy talent? "
The old man gave a strange laugh and left happily, thinking that he had succeeded in his scheme.
…
Qin Yi did not wait for the old man to go far and could not wait to start his first alchemy journey in his life.
Not long after starting, he kind of understood why the old man would have that kind of tone.
Sure enough, this theory was one thing, but after getting started, it was another thing.
Starting the fire, heating the cauldron, every link, as long as there was a slight negligence, all the previous efforts would be wasted. And adding the Dust Separating Pill's materials was even more particular.
Technique, weight, heat control, those were all completely grasped by hand.
Because in the process of alchemy, the rhythm and timing of each step must be grasped just right. At what time to put the materials, which materials to put, how much to put.
In the time it takes for a spark to fly off a flint, there was no time for you to calculate accurately. It all relied on alchemy intuition. A little mistake, and the whole game would be lost.
The first furnace of Dust Separating Pill, as expected, was a complete failure. In the link of adding materials, Qin Yi also had those few small mistakes. In the end, it was completely a millimeter difference, a thousand miles off.
The second experiment, Qin Yi was full of confidence, feeling that he could overcome those few small mistakes. But, when he wholeheartedly focused on those few mistakes, there were still omissions in other links.
The third time, it was still the same, unable to attend to one thing and lose sight of the other. When he focused on the last mistake, it was inevitable that there would be mistakes in other places.
Trying like this six times in a row, there was not much progress all along. This made Qin Yi unable to help being somewhat frustrated.
The repeated failed attempts were undoubtedly pouring a basin of cold water on Qin Yi's fanatical mind, making him calm down.
"I still think that everything is too simple."
After his mind gradually calmed down, Qin Yi deeply realized that he had thought too simply about the path of alchemy. Ever since he came to this world, the degree of fusion between him and the mysterious picture scroll had become higher and higher. Although he was still unable to decipher the mystery of the picture scroll, the benefits it brought to Qin Yi were obvious.
This scroll had imperceptibly transformed his body and raised his martial arts talent, allowing him to benefit immensely.
Now, he possessed incredible alchemy talent.
It was precisely because everything was going too smoothly that Qin Yi thought of everything too simply and subconsciously took all the successes for granted.
"This setback came at a good time."
Qin Yi slowly came to his senses. During this period of time, everything had been going too smoothly for him. Unknowingly, he had become a little inflated.
"Nothing in this world is as simple as I thought. If I continue to be blindly optimistic, then I might suffer a huge loss when I wander the Jianghu in the future. It's very likely that I won't be able to make a comeback for the rest of my life, or even be consigned to eternal damnation. "
After understanding this point, Qin Yi tried his best to calm his raging heart down.
Looking at the remaining ingredients, Qin Yi was in no hurry to refine the Dust Parting Pill. Instead, he sat cross-legged and concentrated on meditating.
What he needed now was silence!
Calming down, throwing away all distracting thoughts and returning to his true self.
The distracting thoughts were gradually dispelled by Qin Yi. His mind once again returned to the refinement of the Dust Parting Pill. Every step, every mistake, every mistake, and even every time his mental state was out of balance, they all appeared clearly in his mind, like a movie.
One day and one night passed.
Qin Yi regained his senses from his meditation. The fervent look in his eyes had already been washed away, and what replaced it was a clear understanding.
"Let's try again."
Qin Yi guided the Nirvana True Fire in his body and slowly guided it into the pill furnace. He started to heat the cauldron and formed a pleasant connection with the pill furnace.
Anything, when it reached a certain level, would form a Dao.
The path of alchemy also had its own Dao.
What was Dao?
No one was able to use words to clearly express it. It was a mysterious thing.
Alchemy was a kind of Dao.
You could not see its existence in every detail, but it did affect every link without a sound.
The pill furnace looked like an inanimate object. But if you really treated it as an inanimate object, then you would be at a disadvantage, and you would not be able to grasp the Dao within!
If it was said that in the previous few experiments, Qin Yi was more focused on technique, then from this moment onwards, other than technique, Qin Yi was also focused on Dao.
Any technique, would be integrated into Dao.
Dao came before technique.
It had to be said that this one day and one night of meditation had an immeasurable effect on the improvement of Qin Yi's state of mind. It allowed Qin Yi to finally break through the fog in the Dao of alchemy, and started to vaguely grasp some of its lifelines.
This was also because his comprehension ability was abnormally high. How many young people who learned alchemy had the guidance of their instructors, but were ultimately unable to grasp the direction of Dao, and were unable to grasp that mysterious thing.
But Qin Yi relied on his own comprehension and could still faintly touch it. If those Alchemy Path legends knew, they would definitely be incomparably shocked.
Because Qin Yi's one day and one night of comprehension, some Alchemy Path legends even used eight to ten years, and might not be able to comprehend so deeply!
The pill fire burned at a uniform speed around the pill furnace.
Qin Yi had no distractions in his mind. His hands moved like they were flying, and he started to add in the ingredients to refine the Dust Separating Pill.
Refining medicinal pills, this segment tested one's skill the most.
It tested the speed of one's hand, the grasp of the amount, and the control of the fire.
A bit more was too much, a bit less was not enough.
Qin Yi released his divine sense to the fullest, feeling the fusion of the various materials in the pill furnace. The fusion process this time made Qin Yi feel more satisfied than any previous times.
Raising his right hand, Qin Yi consecutively fired in six streaks of Nirvana True Fire. When all the materials started to fuse, the most crucial step was the high temperature tempering, refining and fusing the various spiritual powers of the materials, condensing them into medicinal pills.
After an hour, the pill furnace started to show a trace of trembling.
Qin Yi knew that the suspense was about to be revealed. For a moment, Qin Yi's heart also inevitably gave birth to a trace of anticipation.
Boom!
The pill furnace gave off a light and quick cry.
Qin Yi flicked his sleeves, sweeping away the remaining heat of the pill fire, and his gaze shot towards the pill furnace.
A cauldron of Dust Separating Pill, out of the furnace!
There were a total of nine.
One waste pill, two waste pills, three waste pills …
