Chapter 424 Preparations before Dan's match
In Jiang Chen's opinion, no matter whether the refining is successful or failed, at least some experience can be obtained. The experience of *Literature Museum* is the wealth of the alchemist. With the gradual accumulation of this experience, it will sooner or later completely erupt, bringing a qualitative change effect, so that he does not need to rely on the restoration function of the Demon Order and become a real alchemist.
Jiang Chen knew that no senior alchemist in the immortal cultivation world like Shangguan Yunfei was a theorist who only knew how to talk a lot. They all had rich alchemist experience that ordinary alchemists could not reach.
Although talent is very important for an alchemist, alchemy experience is also an indispensable and important link. Over the years, Jiang Chen actually spent very little time on his own practice, and most of his time was spent on alchemy. He could almost say that he never stopped practicing alchemy for a moment.
Moreover, since he is already a rookie of alchemy known to the elders of the sect, and is also a promising alchemist who Shangguan Yunfei, the president of the Jingzhou branch of the Dan League, has made him enjoy more privileges than ordinary alchemists in the alchemy recipe, which has also improved his alchemy skills and laid a smooth road.
Of course, due to the restoration function of the Demon Order of Heaven, this gave him a certain confidence in the success of alchemy.
Don’t underestimate the thing about faith. Sometimes, because of the fear of being lingering, the alchemist is always worried that he is not strong enough. When refining the alchemy, he is always a little timid. In this way, the level of ten can only be eight points. In this way, the success rate of alchemy will naturally decrease a few points.
Jiang Chen is full of confidence, which makes him go further than an ordinary alchemist in the same time.
Of course, Jiang Chen naturally understood that although he had the plug-in of the Demon Order of the Heavenly Demon, the refined pills could be restored into materials and then refined again, and the starting point was much higher than others.
But looking at the entire world of immortal cultivation, there are many geniuses in alchemy. His talent is not much higher than others, and it is not enough to ensure victory. It will not be easy to find alchemists from other seven families in this alchemist competition held by the Shang League.
Therefore, for the next three days, he must concentrate on all his thoughts on alchemy.
In the Yue family's alchemy room, the hot high temperature spreads. The heat wave makes the alchemy room like a steamer, with a surging heat wave. If ordinary mortals stay here for a while, they may be roasted into a pig.
The elixir room of Yue’s family is specially made, which is very different from the alixir room used by Jiang Chen in the Heavenly Demon Sect. It is made of a magma rock next to a crater. This magma rock is not only hard, but also has a special effect of maintaining high temperatures. It is the best material used to build an alixir room, and the alchemy effect is quite good.
The ancestors of the Yue family also cultivated this alchemy room very carefully. There was no gap on the walls inside the alchemy room, and it looked like a huge magma rock hollowed out the alchemy room.
At this moment, there were a lot of jade boxes piled up in the alchemy room of Yue’s family. From the mouth of the lid of the jade box with a slightly gap, a rich fragrance of strange flowers and exotic plants was wafting out. After the surrounding high temperature evaporation, the smell of this medicine fragrance became much stronger.
At the wall directly in front of the alchemy room, there was a red stone platform. On the stone platform, a young man with upper body and sweat flowing was sitting upright. In the air in front of him, a purple-gold alchemy tripod was suspended.
Under the alchemy tripod, bright red flames burned wildly, baking the bottom of the tripod.
And the high heat wave in the mysterious dan room spreads from the dan cauldron.
This young man sitting upright here is naturally Jiang Chen, who is practicing alchemy hard. Since he felt that there was only three days of urgency, he has spent almost all his time in this alchemy room. Whenever he has free time, he will open a cauldron and refine an alchemy, or focus on the research of new alchemy recipes. Although it is very hard and tiring to do so, he feels it is still worth it.
Of course, Jiang Chen did not only do it for the Yue family and Huang Xiuli, nor just to get the reward from the Shang League. He wanted to take this opportunity to familiarize himself with some pill recipes that he didn't know, and also tried to refine some pills that he usually wanted to refine but could not collect materials for the time being.
Inside the alchemy tripod, bright red flames burned wildly. Between the flames, a elixir can be seen faintly, and a faint fragrance of pills permeated from it.
The prototype of the pill gradually became rounded under the scorching flames. After about an hour, Jiang Chen's closed eyes suddenly opened, and he bounced his fingers, and a spiritual power bounced away the cover of the pill cauldron. A purple light suddenly flew out of the pill cauldron and then automatically threw it into Jiang Chen's hands.
What fell into Jiang Chen's hand was a round pill the size of a grape. Although the pill was small in size, if it was placed outside for auction, it would definitely be sold at a high price.
This pill is the Zhuyan Pill that Jiang Chen once refined. After taking this pill, the taker can keep his face as he was taken without aging.
Although this pill will not increase the practitioner's cultivation, it is very attractive to many immortal cultivators. After all, who doesn't want to keep a young appearance? Especially for some female cultivators, this is even more so. Zi Xi did not hesitate to travel all over the Han Dynasty for this pill. Jiang Chen happened to use Zi Xi to refine Zhuyan Pills, which changed his destiny.
When Jiang Chen was originally in the Heavenly Demon Sect, he wanted to refine this pill again.
Of course, his main purpose was not to improve alchemy, but to refine the elixir and sell it for money. As a time traveler, he naturally knew that in order to maintain his appearance, women were willing to spend all their money and could eat all their hardships.
However, the Zhuyan Pill has a lot of materials and is extremely difficult to collect them all. Zi Xi almost used up his property and barely collected a few pieces of materials.
Moreover, the success rate of Zhuyan Pills is extremely low, and even a senior alchemist may not have a success rate of one tenth. The materials for refining a Zhuyan Pill are too expensive, comparable to the Foundation Establishment Pill. In this way, how many people are willing to waste materials to refine the Zhuyan Pills that are not one ten? Therefore, the Zhuyan Pills on the market are almost extinct. Occasionally, one of them appears, and they are all fried to a point that is much more expensive than the Foundation Establishment Pills.
In addition, Jiang Chen also refined another elixir called Soul-Replenishing Pill, which is also a very useful but extremely difficult pill to refine. His function is to restore the magic power in his body in a very short time, and even if he is taken by a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he can recover about one-third of it.
If you take such a pill when fighting against others, when both sides are exhausted in spiritual power, you may be able to reverse the situation and turn defeat into victory.
Therefore, most of the cultivators with great strength in the Foundation Establishment Stage will prepare some of them. However, this kind of pill is similar to Zhuyan Pills, and the materials are required. Although the refining success rate is higher than that of Zhuyan Pills, it is difficult to reach more than 10%, so the price is quite expensive. Cultivators without some background may not be able to take it casually.
You should know that even Jiang Chen himself had never owned this spirit-replenishing pill before. The reason is that its materials are too expensive, so how can Jiang Chen afford to buy refined medicinal materials?
...Time flies like water, and three days pass by in a flash.
During the three days of retreat and studying in this alchemy room, Jiang Chen basically did not leave his home. Anyway, someone would send it in if he used up all the medicinal materials. All his mind was used to refine alchemy, and occasionally he would use the Demon Order to restore it. And under his refining of such a long and sleepy way, the harvest was naturally quite large.
Not only did he refine five pieces of Zhuyan Pills, but he also refine more than twenty pieces of Spirit Replenishing Pills. Of course, there are more waste materials. However, when Jiang Chen used the Heavenly Demon Order, it is quite considerable that he used such a few materials to refine so many pills.
After such almost crazy alchemy, Jiang Chen could clearly feel that his alchemy skills had improved a lot. Speaking of which, although the talent is valued in alchemy, his acquired efforts are even more important.
Now, after ten years of hard work, he feels that even without the auxiliary restoration of the Demon Order, he has already achieved a very high level. Because he refined ordinary second-level elixirs, such as increasing the cultivation of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, his success rate has reached about 35%.
You should know that the average third-level alchemist who has a cultivation level in the Golden Elixir stage has only a success rate of about 30%. With his cultivation level in the Foundation Establishment stage and the identity of a second-level alchemist, it should be considered quite good to achieve such a high success rate. Especially compared with his alchemist's time and cultivation career.
The reason why Jiang Chen's level of alchemy has improved so much is because he has been constantly refining alchemy. Just imagine how many alchemists can be like him, who do not care about cultivation at all, and only refine alchemy?
However, what surprised Jiang Chen a little by the crazy alchemy these three days was that he found that the spiritual power in his body was also growing slowly. Although the speed was extremely slow, it was indeed increasing slowly.
After a little thought, he suddenly realized that alchemy is a huge job that consumes spiritual power and spirit. This kind of consumption is not easy, whether it is the magic power in the body, the energy of divine thoughts, or the soul of the soul.
During this period, once the spiritual power filled in the body was squandered all during the alchemy refining, Jiang Chen immediately drank spiritual wine to replenish his magic power, and then continued to start working on the alchemy refining.
Therefore, it is not too strange that the capacity of spiritual power in the body has been increased with such consumption and supplementation.
When it was early morning of the fourth day, Jiang Chen walked out of the alchemy room with energetic energy. He had two small porcelain bottles in his hand, which were filled with Zhuyan Pills and Lingpu Pills.
