Chapter 1 Moving(2/2)
He left the bedroom and went to the clean utility room, ready to start refining the elixir.
He is an alchemist, and all his livelihood comes from elixirs.
Alchemist can be said to be the most profitable of all professions, but also the most expensive.
Although Xu Mu passed the initial money-burning stage, he was still far from making big money.
There are only two kinds of elixirs that he can refine now, one is Bigu Pill and the other is Qi Gathering Pill.
Bigu Pill is the most common elixir. The effect is that you can not be hungry for three days after taking one pill.
certainly,
These three days are three days for ordinary people!
Practitioners consume a lot of money.
Like Xu Mu, one pill of Bigu Pill can last up to one day!
Generally, when practitioners go out hunting or practice in seclusion, they will prepare some for convenience.
If you are a relatively wealthy practitioner, you will take Bigu Pill as a regular food.
Although practitioners can eat ordinary food, ordinary food often contains heavy turbidity. If eaten for a long time, it will remain in the body and seriously affect the practice.
The Qi Gathering Pill is a pill that assists cultivation. After taking it, it can increase the speed of the practitioner's spiritual energy condensation in a short period of time.
Although Qi Gathering Pill is much more expensive than Bigu Pill, it is very popular among practitioners because it can assist in cultivation.
What Xu Mu wants to refine now is the Bigu Pill. As for the Qi Gathering Pill, although he can refine it, the failure rate is frighteningly high, and he is still in the money-burning stage for the time being.
He first took out the medicinal materials from the storage bag, and after checking them carefully, he took out the most precious alchemy furnace among all his belongings.
The alchemy furnace is about three feet high, with three legs and two ears. The overall color is brass, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, like a little fat man. There are many mysterious runes like tadpoles engraved on the furnace body.
When he couldn't pay the rent, he once thought about selling the alchemy furnace.
But in the end, reason triumphed over impulse.
Because that is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
He is only at the third level of Qi training, and he is not good at fighting. If he loses his source of livelihood through alchemy, he will be dead.
After setting up the alchemy furnace, Xu Mu took out a few jade-like cyan spiritual trees from the storage bag and placed them under the alchemy furnace.
He squeezed a magic formula with both hands, and the spiritual power surged in his body, "poof"! An orange-red fireball the size of a table tennis ball appeared in front of him.
"go!"
Xu Mu's magic formula changed, and the fireball fell on the spiritual tree, quickly igniting the spiritual tree.
Then he crossed his fingers and quickly kneaded a few magic formulas to cast new spells.
boom!
The flames on the spirit wood surged fiercely, turning into several fire snakes that looked like living creatures, wrapping the alchemy furnace and preheating the inside and outside of the furnace at the same time.
The spell he uses to control flames is called fire control, which is a first-level fire spell that all alchemists must learn.
The strength of firebending has a great impact on the success of the elixir.
Xu Mu has practiced firebending for many years and has already mastered the art of fire control. It is estimated that he will be able to perfect it in a few years. As for the subsequent masters, grandmasters, and even extraordinary realms, they cannot be achieved through simple practice.
Fire control is not only Xu Mu's method of alchemy, but also his strongest fighting method. After using it, he can control the flames, form fire snakes and fire birds, and launch attacks on the enemy.
As for the offensive weapons used by most cultivators, Xu Mu used to have them, but he sold them some time ago to help Ye Yingying with his medical treatment.
After the alchemy furnace was preheated, Xu Mu began to put medicinal materials into it one by one, while activating the formation runes on the alchemy furnace to sense and control the changes in the internal medicinal materials.
When the medicinal materials were completely melted, he used fire control to control the flames and increase the temperature.
Although Bigu Pill is the most common pill in the cultivation world, it is still very cumbersome and troublesome to refine.
However, it is precisely because of the trouble that alchemists are extremely rare, making him profitable.
The busy refining process lasted all night.
Sensing that the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace had stabilized and begun to precipitate and shrink, Xu Mu's hands were as fast as phantoms, and he quickly worked out the magic formula for collecting the elixir.
Bang!
When the stove lid was opened, the aroma of medicine filled his nostrils, and round, yellow pills flew out from inside and landed in the palm of his hand.
"It's a pity that they are all of average quality!"
Xu Mu checked it, with a hint of disappointment on his face.
He has refined the Bigu Pill countless times. The chance of failure is not high, but the quality has never been improved.
Alchemists classify the same kind of elixir into low-grade, medium-grade, top-grade, and top-grade pills according to their quality. Among them, low-grade pills are the worst and top-grade pills are the best.
Under normal circumstances, fifteen low-grade Bigu Pills can be exchanged for one low-grade Spiritual Stone, twelve or three pills for medium-grade ones, ten pills for high-grade pills, and five pills for top-grade pills.
The top-quality Bigu Pill is not only expensive and has huge profits, but it is also very easy to sell.
Practitioners take bigu pills, firstly, to replenish physical consumption, and secondly, to avoid turbid air remaining in the body.
Low-grade, medium-grade, and top-grade products all have turbidity in them. It just depends on the amount. Only the best-quality products don't have it and can be consumed in large quantities for a long time.
"I can't even imagine the best, I'll be satisfied if I can refine some top-grade!"
