Evil Dao Xiuxian: I can giantize elixirs and exotic beasts

Xu Yang collected the materials needed for the Spirit Gathering Pill and spent thirteen spirit stones to buy a six-legged alchemy furnace at the market stall square.

At this point, Xu Yang didn't have any spirit stones on him.

There are still fifteen days until next month. If I cannot successfully refine the Spirit Gathering Pill, my life will be hard. I will have to live on wind and dew, and hunt wild game and barbecue it on the ground to solve the problem of food.

Cultivators in the Soul Condensation Realm need to eat, and high-level foods such as spiritual rice, spiritual meat, and spiritual fruits are the best. Of course, ordinary low-level cultivators cannot afford these things.

Only when one reaches the Daotai realm can the cultivator's life level be considered to have completely leaped forward, and he can maintain basic survival by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Xu Yang returned to his small building, closed the doors and windows, and placed all his things on the table and cabinet.

The blue-gray six-legged alchemy furnace is of average quality, but it is already good for a novice like Xu Yang. It can provide some bonus when refining some low-level pills.

"Yellow Spirit Flower, Snake Bone Grass, and Shining Moon Vine, the three main ingredients of the Spirit Gathering Pill, each has twenty pieces. The other dozen or so auxiliary materials are cheap, so I bought hundreds of them with one spirit stone."

“I hope you won’t let me down…”

Xu Yang picked out a piece of Yellow Spirit Flower, Snake Bone Grass and Moon-Shine Vine respectively, and then activated his evil talent without hesitation.

Buzz buzz buzz....

A familiar phenomenon appeared, and the three spiritual materials changed immediately. First, their size became about ten times larger than before.

Xu Yang did not move his eyes away. When he confirmed that the green spiritual aura on the three spiritual materials had turned into purple, he was suddenly extremely happy. The age of the medicine was increased from a hundred years to a thousand years.

The same kind of elixir is divided into residual, low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and top-grade.

Hundred-year-old spiritual medicines usually produce low-grade pills, or at most medium-grade pills. However, when using thousand-year-old spiritual medicines, as long as the pill is formed, it is almost guaranteed to be a medium-grade pill.

"It seems I really have what it takes to become an alchemist!"

Xu Yang slowly suppressed the joy in his heart, raised his hand and put the three giant spiritual medicines into the storage bag, then took out the recipe of the Spirit Gathering Pill and examined it carefully.

The recipe not only contains various ingredients, but also lists the steps of alchemy in detail.

However, having these steps does not mean that you can easily refine elixirs. Extracting the essence of herbs and spiritual materials and fusing their properties to form a powerful elixir is a work of ingenuity.

If there is a slight error in the fusion of characteristics, the effect will be far off. If the temperature is slightly wrong, a handful of black ash waste will be produced in the furnace.

The alchemy steps on the recipe totaled 500 words. Xu Yang first memorized them and rehearsed them in his mind. About two hours later, he took out the recipe and read it word by word.

when!

The green alchemy furnace made a soft sound.

Xu Yang put away the recipe, flicked his finger on the six-legged alchemy furnace, and began to prepare to make the elixir.

The order of adding various materials was listed, and then Xu Yang made a hand gesture, and suddenly an orange-red flame appeared in the empty furnace.

Follow the steps and implement them one by one.

Soon, there was a "puff" sound, and the top of the furnace was blown open by the air wave, and the inside was pitch black, and all the materials turned into ash.

"I'm so rigid that my body movements have become stiff..."

It was normal that Xu Yang's first batch of pills failed. His face remained calm and he even held his chin to summarize the reasons for the failure.

Clean the alchemy furnace and start the second batch of pills.

puff!

Bang!

Boom!

"..."

After the thirteen portions of materials were used up after being divided into giant pieces, Xu Yang's eyelids twitched. He had opened the furnace thirteen times in total, but none of them succeeded.

If it weren't for the main ingredient of the giant elixir, which turned one portion into thirteen portions, Xu Yang's total of twenty portions of materials would have been basically consumed.

Those who lack financial resources must have been hit so hard that they dare not try again. They cut their losses in time and no longer dream of becoming an alchemist.

Xu Yang's mood was relatively normal, after all, he had just consumed only one portion of the main ingredient.

"call!"

Xu Yang took a few deep breaths, walked to the window, lifted the bamboo curtain and looked at the wilderness outside to calm his mood.

"Alchemy is indeed not a job for the impatient. First and foremost, the most important thing is... emotional stability!!!"

Xu Yang adjusted his mood and took out three kinds of spiritual medicines and materials again, but he did not start refining them immediately. Instead, he took out the pill formula and studied it carefully.

After more than a dozen actual operations, Xu Yang read through it this time with a hint of joy in the corners of his eyes, perhaps he gained something.

I closed my eyes and rehearsed several times, and finally figured out the reason why I always failed before.

"Come again!"

Xu Yang pinched his fingers together with one hand, creating a flame. Looking at the orange-red flame flowing in the alchemy furnace, he felt more and more calm and natural in his heart.

About half a minute later, Xu Yang gathered his magical power and took the initiative to open the lid of the alchemy furnace.

Sizzling...

There were ten pills spinning around inside, and the next moment seven of them exploded, leaving only three intact.

Xu Yang raised his hand and took the three pills in front of him, unable to hide the joy on his lips.

"Finally, a furnace is complete. Even though there are only three pieces, they are all of medium quality."

Strike while the iron is hot.

Xu Yang put the three Spirit Gathering Pills into the prepared white jade bottle and began to refine them again.

One furnace after another, generally one or two pills are produced, occasionally up to three. On average, the success rate is about 20%.

This success rate of pills will result in losses. If you want to make a profit, the success rate must at least be stable at 30% to 40%.

But that is for ordinary alchemists. With Xu Yang's giant talent as a foundation, one piece of material can be turned into more than ten pieces of material. Even if the success rate is only 10%, it is still a big profit. The most important thing is that the pills Xu Yang refines are all medium-quality pills.

"I do have some talent for alchemy, hahaha..."

Xu Yang looked at the three white jade bottles in his hands, and the joy in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

The second wave also had thirteen furnaces, and the ultimate ability was to refine one hundred and thirty pills. Xu Yang refined twenty-seven, and the success rate indeed reached 20%.

A bottle contains ten Spirit Gathering Pills. Ordinary Spirit Gathering Pills in the market cost about twenty spirit stones. If they are all mid-grade Spirit Gathering Pills, a bottle will cost at least thirty spirit stones.

Of course, Xu Yang also knew the reason why he succeeded so quickly. In addition to his good talent in alchemy, most of the other reason was the blessing of the thousand-year-old elixir.

Normally, a novice using a hundred-year-old elixir would have to consume hundreds or even thousands of spirit stones to successfully complete a furnace. Few people have thousand-year-old elixir to practice with...

This is more expensive than burning money!

Luxurious!

......

......

Xu Yang did not continue to refine the Spirit Gathering Pill.

Although he was in high spirits, he knew that he was exhausted both physically and mentally. Refining the elixir was very energy-consuming and required full concentration.

Xu Yang cleaned up the alchemy room, which was originally a training room.

Xu Yang was not so particular. He picked up the futon on the ground and turned the bedroom of only a dozen square meters into a practice room. The original practice room of more than thirty square meters was designated as an alchemy room.

I went to the bedroom, lifted the bed, cleaned it up, and put a futon in it, and the renovation was complete.

“Try the effect…”

Xu Yang sat cross-legged on the cushion on the bed, opened his mouth and swallowed a spirit gathering pill that he had made himself.

By practicing the Five Elements Spirit Transformation Technique, the powerful medicinal power was transported to every part of his body. The growth of his cultivation finally stopped being as slow as a snail's pace and became twice as fast as a snail's pace.

"As expected, wealth, friends, Dharma, and land...wealth comes first."

Xu Yang couldn't help but sigh. If he had enough Spirit Gathering Pills, there wouldn't be a need for two and a half years of hard training. He could advance to the third level of the Spirit Accumulation Realm in less than a year.
