Chapter 33 Ziyun Copper Furnace “Smells fragrant, can an iron pot also be used to make elixirs?” In a waterside pavilion in Tianxiang Building, Gu Caiyi was lying on the table, looking at Yuxiang who was putting on makeup in front of her. As the maid's slender hands applied and rubbed it, the already beautiful face became more dazzling. Sometimes, she couldn't understand why Yuxiang still came to such a filthy place when she had already become an inner disciple of the Hehuan Sect. Yu Xiang closed her eyes and let the maid paint her with watercolors. "Pot? If it is an iron pot licked with spiritual minerals, it can naturally make elixirs." "Um?" Gu Caiyi was puzzled and asked doubtfully: "Don't you alchemists all use cauldrons to make pills?" “Haha, this is your misunderstanding.”
Yu Xiang chuckled and said, "The way of alchemy is broad and profound. There are many refining methods including water refining, fire refining, blood refining, living refining, etc." “And there are even more types of alchemy equipment.” “Because the tripod can withstand flames of sufficient intensity, accommodate more medicinal materials, and at the same time, after the elixir is formed, it can also nourish the elixir and lock in more elixir power. That’s why the tripod has become the most mainstream alchemy tool.” “But in fact, pots, stoves, guis, and kettles are also relatively common alchemy tools. I even heard that there are demon monks who use people as cauldrons and use living refining methods to refine human elixirs.” Gu Caiyi was dumbfounded when he heard this. She had no idea that there were so many details in refining alchemy. And looking at the unfinished meaning of Yu Xiang's words, I'm afraid there is more to say. "Can the lowest quality iron pot from Wanbao Tower be used to make elixirs?" Gu Caiyi was still a little surprised. Yu Xiang didn’t quite understand, “How inferior is that kind of pot?” "Girl, that kind of pot only contains a small amount of black iron, which can barely lock the spiritual energy that escapes during the cooking process of spiritual rice. The price is a piece of low-grade spiritual stone." The maid next to me answered this question. "ah!" The small mouth opened slightly, and Yuxiang opened her eyes in surprise. “I’m afraid I won’t be able to refine good elixirs with this kind of equipment!” “Yes, so I was surprised, and even wondered if my decades of monastic life were in vain.” Through the flat and clear glass mirror, Yu Xiang looked at Gu Caiyi lying on the table in the mirror, feeling a little curious. “The person you are talking about who uses a low-quality spiritual iron cauldron to make alchemy is not the alchemist neighbor you mentioned last time, right?” Gu Caiyi nodded. Yu Xiang said with a hint of amazement, "The monks in the middle stage of Qi refining don't have much spiritual power, and they still use low-quality spiritual iron cauldrons that only contain a small amount of black iron to make elixirs. Your neighbor is either extremely talented in the alchemy path, or he is just basic. Extremely solid, familiar with the characteristics of medicinal materials, and the heat at each stage is also in place. ”
"These two, no matter which one they are, are the seeds of alchemists pursued by some small families and small forces." Gu Caiyi was surprised, "Is it so powerful?" “Well, that’s great.” Yu Xiang nodded heavily, and then his face turned pale. The maid had no choice but to re-make her up. "I worked as a fire-watching disciple in the Hehuan Sect's alchemy room for three years, and as a dispensing disciple for five years. I also personally practiced alchemy for twenty years before I laid a solid foundation. That's all, I have a certain talent for alchemy. Only under such circumstances would the sect be willing to train me to take the path of an alchemist." It is a bit hard to imagine that such a beautiful and quiet woman has been watching fire and preparing medicine for many years. Gu Caiyi just felt that her neighbor seemed really powerful. In the middle stage of Qi refining, although he has a storage bag, his living conditions are very poor at first glance, and there is no power to cultivate him behind him. However, under difficult circumstances, he honed his alchemy skills that ordinary monks would not even dare to think of. "But Caiyi, I think you still need to warn your neighbor about one thing." "What?" "If you have the conditions, it is better to change to a good alchemy equipment! A low-quality spiritual iron pot will greatly affect the grade of the elixir after it is formed. It is also very easy to fry the pot, and you will be seriously injured or even die if you are not careful." Why did the alchemy tripod become the mainstream alchemy equipment? In addition to the advantages mentioned by Yu Xiang before, the biggest advantage is safety! Even if a pair of elixirs is destroyed and the fire is too great, the elixir cauldron will not explode easily. "He is so poor, he probably can't afford any good alchemy equipment." Gu Caiyi curled her lips and suddenly thought of something. “Xiangxiang, don’t you have an extra alchemy furnace?” The days of refining Zhongmiaowan are always boring and boring. Or any repetitive work, you will have a similar feeling after doing it for a long time. But Luo Chen won’t! The increase in proficiency and the foreseeable income from spiritual stones are constantly stimulating his perseverance in refining alchemy. And recently, there have been other “entertainment” activities. Looking at a bucket of nearly fifty kilograms of water flying out of the well at a steady speed, Luo Chen couldn't help but grin with pride. Having achieved a small success in the traction technique, the level has also reached the proficiency level. The reason why he has made such rapid progress is that he drew inspiration from the scene of Gu Caiyi fetching water. In fact, it is not necessary to strictly follow the training method of traction. This spell can cover all aspects of life. From dressing and sweeping the floor at a young age, to carrying heavy objects, and releasing spiritual power when there is nothing to do, the traction technique naturally becomes more and more familiar.
With the proficient level of traction, he can already control the set of jade swords and instruments with ease. In addition to the traction technique, Luo Chen recently learned two more spells. Wind Control Technique, Spiritual Eye Technique. The former got started very quickly, which probably has something to do with his near-perfect Xiaoyaoyou. Anyway, he got started in just one stick of incense. The latter is a bit more difficult. Because it involves fragile eyes and the spiritual power is too strong, it is easy to become blind if you are not careful. So Luo Chen only controlled the spiritual power to attach to his eyes after upgrading the traction technique. I have to say that before the spiritual power entered his eyes, Luo Chen had some expectations. "In urban novels, it can be considered a superpower. It has a perspective function, which is definitely not too much!" However, when Luo Chen opened his eyes to see the world, he was very disappointed. There is no perspective. Some, it’s just a dazzling feeling, like looking at the sun, and your eyes are very sore after looking at it for a long time. The disadvantages are huge! But there must be a reason why this technique is listed among the five basic spells that monks in the Qi Refining Stage must know. Spiritual eye skills, looking at the spirit, observing the spirit, and penetrating into the evil spirits. For low-level monks, what affects their survival is not their low level or lack of strong background, but their ignorance. You can easily lose your life by provoking enemies who appear to be ordinary but are actually advanced in realms, by not being able to distinguish the habitat of monsters, or by bumping into ghosts at night. But the spiritual eye technique can very well avoid these problems. Although it has limitations, it at least allows the monk to know which people he cannot afford to offend and which places he cannot go. The filthy place can be seen at a glance and then avoided. "However, this technique cannot be used indiscriminately. If you look at someone you shouldn't look at, you will annoy them and you will be in trouble." It's okay if you are a high-level monk but think of a low-level monk. If you are a low-level monk, you will most likely be noticed. Peeping can easily lead to misunderstandings. Of course, the high and low realms mentioned here refer to the big realm. Such as refining Qi and building foundation, building foundation and golden elixir. In the same realm, except for those who practice special skills, they generally cannot notice the prying eyes of others. Hurrah! A bucket of water was poured into the large water tank under the guidance of spiritual power. Luo Chen used his spiritual eyesight and looked in carefully.
The Buddha said that a drop of water contains 48,000 insects. Modern biology also says that there are a large number of microorganisms in water. Why can’t I, a dignified cultivator of immortality, see nothing? “This new level of spiritual vision is worse than a microscope.” After muttering a few words, Luo Chen looked at the thirty jade bottles in front of him. This is his result in half a month. Not only did he have three pots of finished products, but he also raised his Zhongmiaowan proficiency level to a proficient level. There are still 25 parts of the raw materials prepared before. If we want to refine them all, it will take at least nearly a month. What Luo Chen is thinking about now is the time to sell Zhongmiao Pills. Gu Caiyi mentioned that Tianxiang Tower was extremely busy at the beginning of the month, which made him notice a problem in his sales. “Selling it on the big market every time will certainly save more time in refining elixirs, but it will actually make less money.” Elixirs of high quality often have no shortage of markets. But if you want to generate a steady stream of profits, you must keep the elixir in the market so that consumers can notice it and buy it at any time. Why is Qi Nourishing Pill so popular among low-level monks? You must know that the pills that can enhance the spiritual power of monks during the Qi refining period are not just Qi-nourishing pills. The reason is that Qi Nourishing Pills are available for sale at any time in the store of Lingyao Pavilion. They used their huge distribution volume to forcefully squeeze out the living space of other similar pills. At present, there are not many competing products of Zhongmiaowan, but you should also consider this issue. Try your best to increase production, but it is also necessary to ensure that Zhongmiaowan is always available on the market. “It’s decided, let’s set up a stall three times a month from now on!” Twice for the small episode and once for the large episode. Luo Chen is alone and has no skills at all. At present, he can only do this. However, this plan was shaken the next morning. “The first-order low-grade magical weapon Ziyun Bronze Furnace?” (End of this chapter)
