Chapter 1990 Alchemy(1/2)
Song Yun followed Huang Zhengtao and walked into the east courtyard of the Huang family.
Although he stayed here for a few days last time, he had never been to the East Courtyard.
There is a martial arts temple in the East Courtyard. From a distance, there are dozens of Huang family members who are practicing, including many of them.
Of course, most of the Conscious Realms are over thirty years old and cannot participate in this Peach Blossom Spring Martial Arts Conference.
Huang Zhengtao glanced at the martial arts temple, pointed to one of the young men, and said to Song Yun: "That is Huang Shuhao, Qingshan... After his death, he is the most outstanding child of the Huang family. He is twenty-nine years old this year. He is still a little short of the state of consecration, and he can advance to the middle stage of consecration."
"Now there is still one month before the Peach Blossom Land Martial Arts Association. As long as he has sufficient blood jade pills, he should be able to advance to the middle stage of consecration before the Peach Blossom Land Martial Arts Association. At that time, he will have the strength to compete for the top ten."
After walking through the martial arts field, Huang Zhengtao continued: "In addition to Huang Shuhao, there are several other children, who are also in the early stage of consecration. Although one month is not enough for them to advance, with the help of the Blood Jade Pill, their cultivation can improve a lot. In this way, Huang Zhen's competitiveness will be even stronger."
Song Yun could see that Huang Zhengtao was very happy to get the Blood Jade Pill.
He asked, "Uncle, from what you mean, it seems that you are in short supply of elixirs?"
"That's true." Huang Zhengtao nodded and said, "Of the three spiritual lands, the Tianchi Sect has the highest level of alchemy attainments. The spiritual land in Shu and the Taohuayuan Spirit Land are much inferior in this regard, and are even not at the same level at all. Moreover, only the elixirs of the Jindan Realm can be refined by Luo Tu and five people from Tianchi Sect. It is very rare and the price is even more expensive."
"The status of an alchemist is extraordinary. If we want to buy elixirs in Taohuayuan, we have to look at the expressions of Luo Tu and others. As for the elixirs in the Conscious Realm, it is not something that ordinary alchemists can refine. Not to mention the alchemist, alchemist is even scarce. Our Huang family also spent a lot of money to cultivate an alchemist."
"The alchemist is named Qiu Renzhi, and he can also refine elixirs in the Consecration Realm, but he only knows one type of Huaqing Pill, and the effect is far worse than that of the Blood Jade Pill. If he reaches the late stage of consecration, taking this Huaqing Pill will be greatly reduced."
"However, even Huaqing Pills are very rare. Qiu Renzhi's success rate in refining this kind of elixir is less than 10%. The Huaqing Pills he refined are not distributed enough in the consecration realm of our Huang family. We still have to buy elixirs from Tianchi Sect."
"But an alchemist is still very precious. As far as I know, there is only one alchemist in the He family and our Huang family. It is said that the alchemist in the He family is above Qiu Renzhi, but it is not much higher."
After hearing Huang Zhengtao's explanation, Song Yun realized how scarce alchemists are.
From this we can also see that the earth's inheritance of alchemy is too weak.
As they spoke, Song Yun, Huang Shiyun and Huang Zhengtao walked to a house.
Even outside the house, Song Yun could feel a heat, and the ground under his feet was a little hot, and the heat source seemed to be underground.
At this moment, the door was open, and there was a pile of medicinal materials outside the door.
Song Yun glanced at the eyes and found that the medicinal materials were exactly what was needed to refine the Blood Jade Pill.
The servant Adong stood at the door with a embarrassed expression and shouted to the room: "Master Qiu, the master asked me to move these medicinal materials in, you..."
"I don't need these medicinal materials, why are you moving in?"
A cold drink came from the room, interrupting Adong's words.
A middle-aged man in his fifties walked out of the house, which was in the middle stage of consecration.
This middle-aged man is Qiu Renzhi, an alchemist trained by the Huang family.
Qiu Renzhi walked out, staring at Adong with his eyes, and said angrily: "Don't say that someone wants to refine elixirs. In the whole Huang Mansion, I am the only alchemist. Who else can refine elixirs? In this world, when are there so many alchemists? Besides, these medicinal materials are all very ordinary. If you combine them to refine elixirs, what clever means will it take? Do you know?"
After saying that, Qiu Renzhi shook his sleeves and turned around and walked into the room, saying, "Adong, I don't make things difficult for you. I'll move all the medicinal materials back to the warehouse. I'm going to refine elixirs, so I won't bother with you."
Adong was sad and didn't know what to do.
At this moment, he saw Huang Zhengtao, glanced at Qiu Renzhi's back, and deliberately shouted loudly: "Master."
Master, is Huang Zhengtao here?
Qiu Renzhi stopped, turned around and saw Huang Zhengtao.
"Master Huang, you are here."
When Qiu Renzhi saw Huang Zhengtao, he smiled and bowed to Huang Zhengtao.
Although the status of an alchemist is noble, Qiu Renzhi has a place to be used by the Huang family after all. The medicinal materials he practiced were not affordable by him.
Over the years, he has also relied on the help of the Huang family, which has achieved his current accomplishments in alchemy.
Therefore, he was still grateful to the Huang family.
What's more, Huang Zhengtao's mid-stage state of elixir was unrespectful to him.
Huang Zhengtao walked over and said to Qiu Renzhi: "Renzhi, Adong is right. These medicinal materials are indeed used for alchemy, and he did not lie."
Qiu Renzhi said with a confused look on his face: "But I can't use these medicinal materials when I refine Huaqing Pill?"
"It's not your use, it's him." Huang Zhengtao pointed to Song Yun and said, "Let me introduce you to him. He is Song Yun and also an alchemist. These medicinal materials are what he wants."
Qiu Renzhi looked at Song Yun and saw that he was just a young man in his early twenties, and he immediately frowned.
He has been immersed in the alchemy for decades and knows that the alchemy is difficult, and it is even more difficult than practicing martial arts.
What achievements can a young man in his early twenties have in his alchemy?
His face turned down and he said to Huang Zhengtao: "Master Huang, how old is this little brother who can refine elixirs? I'm sorry, don't be deceived."
Huang Zhengtao smiled and said, "Renzhi, I know you don't believe him. This is the pill he refined, please take a look."
As he said that, Huang Zhengtao took out a blood jade pill and handed it to Qiu Renzhi.
Qiu Renzhi took the pill with a suspicion, and his face changed immediately. He exclaimed: "What a great pill, Mr. Huang, where did you get it?"
What he said was obviously not convinced. This pill was refined by Song Yun.
Seeing this, Huang Shiyun said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Qiu, my father said that this is the pill refined by Song Yun, why don't you believe it?"
Qiu Renzhi shook his head and pondered: "This elixir has a strong and restrained power, a bright color and a round shape. Not only is it powerful elixirs, but the elixir techniques are also quite impressive. How could such a master alchemist be a young man in his twenties?"
Seeing that Qiu Renzhi praised the Blood Jade Pill very much, but he didn't believe it was made by Song Yun, Huang Zhengtao laughed and said, "Haha, Renzhi, don't believe it. This pill was really made by Song Yun.
Qiu Renzhi made a decisive move: "It is impossible. Although this pill is suitable for the Consciousness Realm, even the most powerful alchemist, Master Luotu, is it impossible to condense the pills so perfectly. As a young man, can he be more powerful than Master Luotu?"
Song Yun smiled and said, "Master Qiu, since you said Luotu cannot condense the elixir so perfectly, then he is not as good as the world's number one alchemist. Let me ask you, who made this elixir?"
Hearing this question, Qiu Renzhi was stunned.
Yes, who made it?
He came to his senses, glared at Song Yun, and said, "Boy, maybe it was Lord Luotu's progress in the alchemy, so he refined such a magical pill. Don't think that you just wanted to deceive Mr. Huang if you wanted to find a way to buy one."
Seeing that Qiu Renzhi insisted that the blood jade pill was not refined by Song Yun, Huang Shiyun stomped her feet in anger, opened all the pill bottles, showed it to Qiu Renzhi, and said, "You can't say that these pills were bought by Song Yun, right?"
"So many, fifty pills, and the elixirs are very perfect. It seems that Lord Luotu's alchemy is not only progressing, but also very stable."
Everyone's mouth twitched, but unexpectedly, Huang Shiyun showed the elixir, but she was given the words of Qiu Renzhi.
Song Yun looked at Qiu Renzhi and smiled and said, "What should you do? You believe that these elixirs were refined by me?"
"It's impossible that you can refine it, I don't believe it."
Qiu Renzhi looked stubborn and bowed to Huang Zhengtao, "Master Huang, don't be deceived by this kid. Maybe he just wanted to cheat these medicinal materials. These medicinal materials are very expensive, worth thousands of taels of silver."
Huang Zhengtao was speechless for a moment and had to say, "Renzhi, just ask Song Yun to try it. As long as he refines the bleeding jade pill, will it prove everything?"
"This...well, let him give it a try and reveal his liar's face."
Qiu Renzhi was very unhappy with Song Yun using his alchemy room, but when he saw Huang Zhengtao say this, he agreed.
After all, Huang Zhengtao still needs to give face.
Seeing Qiu Renzhi let go, Huang Zhengtao said, "Let's go, everyone will enter the alchemy room together. Adong, you can bring the medicinal materials in."
The group entered the alchemy room, and there was a strong smell of medicine inside. There were many shelves around the room, with books and elixir bottles on it.
In the center of the house, there is a staircase that hovers and extends underground.
Going down the stairs, the temperature is getting higher and higher, and the air is filled with heat.
After going down to the bottom, I really arrived at the alchemy room.
Song Yun was very interested in the equipment of other alchemists before condensing the alchemy fire. At this moment, he looked closely and saw a circular pit with a diameter of five meters on the ground. Flames gushed up from below, splashing out magma from time to time.
It turned out that the flames used by Qiu Renzhi to refine the alchemy were earth fires that emerged from the underground.
The "Immortal and Demonic Dao" records that earth fire can be used to refine alchemy and weapon, and is a very good source of fire.
However, the earth fire is also strong and weak. Some weak earth fire will reduce the success rate of alchemy, which is far inferior to that of alchemy fire.
There are also powerful earth fires, which can not only increase the success rate of alchemy and weapon refining, but also some strong people can conquer earth fires for combat.
But the earth fire that can be conquered is already a very powerful existence and is very rare.
At this moment, the earth fire in front of Song Yun's eyes was a relatively weak type, but compared with the aviation flames in Qingyun Villa, it was much better.
"Yes, this earth fire is OK."
Song Yun nodded and praised.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Renzhi said angrily: "I still recognize the Earth Fire. It seems that you, a liar, have also put in effort."
Huang Zhengtao knew that only when Song Yun refined the elixir, Qiu Renzhi would believe it. He was too lazy to explain to Qiu Renzhi anymore, but said to Song Yun: "It is precisely because of this earth fire that our Huang family can refine elixirs. If there is no earth fire, those alchemists who have not condensed the elixir will have no place to use their skills."
Song Yun then looked up at the top of the gust of ground fire, and a elixir furnace the size of a water tank was hung above.
Although the alchemy furnace is large, it is a bit small compared to the gust of the earth fire with a diameter of five meters. It is hanging above and looks lonely.
"This alchemy furnace is actually a magic weapon!"
Song Yun exclaimed because he discovered that this alchemy furnace was actually a magic weapon.
Seeing him say this, Qiu Renzhi smiled sarcastically: "Haha, you're showing off your feet. Of course, the alchemy furnace is a magic weapon, otherwise, how can you refine the alchemy? You don't even know this, and you dare to say that you are an alchemist, and you are so thick-skinned."
Song Yun ignored it, looked at the earth fire and the magic weapon alchemy furnace, and enviously said: "The conditions for alchemy here are much better than mine."
