Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

Chapter 107: Start Refining Medicine

After a whole day of work, even a walk-on figure like Zuo Feng was so tired that he couldn't support himself.

‘It’s better to fight with others, it will be more enjoyable. I didn’t expect that doing business would be such a tiring thing’.

Zuo Feng complained in his heart, and at the same time he also realized deeply that he was indeed not a businessman. So on the day after the auction, he completely handed over the affairs of the trading house to the invited boss Zhong and the fifth elder, and he also started to make preparations for the upcoming trial.

If you want to improve your strength in a short period of time, in addition to practicing some powerful martial arts, you can only use some drugs to give yourself some self-protection during the trial.

Although the old man did not say what benefits he would gain from each level of the "Spin Tower Trial". But Zuo Feng had a vague guess that the rewards that could be included in the county trial competition every five years would definitely be some rare things.

He had just reached the bone refining stage, and there was basically no hope of improving his cultivation level in a short period of time. But even if he had a way to improve his cultivation level again, Zuo Feng would not do it. He still understood the principle that going too far is not enough. Therefore, Zuo Feng chose to stabilize his cultivation for the time being and focus on refining medicine.

As for the art of medicine, he spent almost all his energy and time on it during that wasteful period of the year. Although Zuo Feng was very interested in the art of refining medicine, he was busy with many things during this time, and he was really unable to do anything at all. Now that the trading house is on track, I have the time and energy to study it carefully.

Zuo Feng had already learned a lot about the elementary medicine mixing technique from Zhuang Yu. Although he could not achieve the same level of excellence as Zhuang Yu, he had barely reached the level of an alchemist apprentice. His next goal is to prepare some medicinal powders. As long as he can successfully refine the finished medicinal powders, he will have reached the level of a junior pharmacist.

Zuo Feng had seen those powdered medicine prescriptions in Tiangong Medicine Refining Shop before, but each one was horribly expensive. Although Zuo Feng was now considered to be somewhat wealthy, he still did not want to spend all his money on those prescriptions.

He had previously found a "Basic Medicine Refining Guide" in the underground secret room of Jinyan Mountain, which also recorded several good prescriptions. Zuo Feng decided to practice using the prescriptions recorded in this book first. As for the medicinal materials, Zhuang Yu also had some there, and he could get them and use them at any time.

There is still a courtyard in the backyard of the shop. Although his own home is also a good place, he still knows his quirky sister very well. If he concentrates on refining medicine, he must avoid this "little monster".

So Zuo Feng just explained it to the fifth elder and packed up a relatively secluded room in the courtyard to prepare the medicine for himself.

He had bought a medicinal furnace himself, so after retrieving the medicinal materials from Zhuang Yu of the old shop, Zuo Feng locked the door from the inside and started refining the medicinal powder.

There weren't many prescriptions recorded in Zuo Feng's book. After briefly looking at their effects, he picked out two of them. One is "Fu Ling San" which mainly restores spiritual energy, and the other is "Hui Li San" which mainly restores physical strength. Both of these medicinal powders will be extremely useful in dealing with the upcoming "Twisting Tower Trial".

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Zuo Feng first calmed down his somewhat excited mood. Different from the previous mixing of medicines, refining medicine powder requires absolute concentration. Zuo Feng pressed his palm close to the ground and mobilized his mind power to inject it into the nanocrystal in his palm. Then, like a magic trick, piles of medicinal materials and an exquisitely shaped medicine furnace suddenly appeared on the ground.

After doing this, Zuo Feng slowly took out a small bag from his arms and opened it, revealing tiny blood-red crystals. As soon as he saw the blood-red crystals, Zuo Feng frowned slightly, because just such a pack of crystals cost him almost five gold coins.

This blood-red crystal is called Flame Crystal. Because it is only produced in the Xuanwu Empire, the price in Yancheng, which is part of the Yelin Empire, will be relatively expensive. If this flame crystal is input into spiritual energy, it will emit extremely huge heat. Generally, refining medicine or refining energy relies on this kind of flame crystal.

Zuo Feng picked out a flame crystal and put it into a hole at the bottom of the medicine furnace. Then Zuo Feng placed his hand on a bulge on the side of the medicine furnace. As the spiritual energy was sent out from his palm and injected into the furnace, a hot feeling was transmitted from the inside of the medicine furnace.

Zuo Feng smiled slightly when he saw this, took a piece of nectar flower from a pair of medicinal materials next to him, and put it into the medicine furnace. This method of relying on a medicine furnace to make medicine is much simpler than his previous method of mixing medicine.

Because Zhuang Yu couldn't practice body refining before, he couldn't use the medicine furnace to make medicine. What Zuo Feng learned at the beginning was this method of mixing medicine. If we make the medicine mixture as before, the process will be much more complicated. The medicine will go through many tedious processes such as cooking, drying, grinding, and sorting. The production is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also requires the person who makes it to be extremely careful and patient. .

Most people who practice medicine refining have a certain level of cultivation, so this most primitive medicine making method is almost difficult to see again. After all, the mixture of medicine that was spent so much time and energy is simply not as good as the medicine powder refined by a junior alchemist through a medicine furnace.

But it is undeniable that the most primitive method of mixing medicines also contains some profound pharmacology. This kind of learning started from the most basic level. Although it seemed that he had taken some detours before, it was only after time passed that Zuo Feng realized how important the foundation that Zhuang Yu had laid for him was.

Zuo Feng was delighted at this time, watching the Mimu Flower jumping in the fire, as if dancing. Some tiny mucus was roasted out, and then the mucus became more and more. At a certain moment, Zuo Feng waved his hand and threw in a Hundred Buds Vine, and then began to closely watch the changes in the furnace.

The liquid extracted from the Mimu Flower before hovered at the edge of the fire like crystal drops. Zuo Feng now had to control the spiritual energy, move the medicine slightly away from the flame, and at the same time not let the temperature drop too low and solidify. In addition, he had to continue to refine the Hundred Buds Vine that had just entered the furnace, which was not as simple as splitting his mind.

At this time, Zuo Feng's "Cloud Wave Palm" that had been fruitless in his practice, instead played a role at this time. Splitting his mind and controlling multiple spiritual energies, Zuo Feng still felt at ease.

Zuo Feng, who was refining medicine, suddenly felt as if he had entered a mysterious state. The small medicine furnace in front of him was like a special world, and the fire in the furnace was like the earth that gave birth to all things, and the medicinal materials that kept jumping in it were like the creatures in this small world.

At this moment, Zuo Feng felt that he was the creator of this small world, and he had the power of life and death in his hands. This mysterious feeling made Zuo Feng a little excited. But before he could deeply experience the mysterious feeling, a slight explosion came from the medicine furnace.

The Hundred Buds Vine that was being refined and the juice of the Mi Mu Flower that was extracted before were scrapped with the explosion just now. Zuo Feng shook his head with a wry smile, but his mood at this moment was still in the joy of the first taste of refining medicine.

He was not hit by the failure at all, but quickly poured out the scrapped residue. After checking that there were still a lot of remaining flame crystals in the furnace, he took another Mi Mu Flower from his side without stopping and began to refine it again.

With Zuo Feng's unremitting efforts, there were finally more and more residues around him. So far, he has not successfully made a medicinal powder, which has exhausted Zuo Feng's enthusiasm and interest. But Zuo Feng has never thought of giving up. After all, it took him almost a month to learn how to mix medicine, and he barely made a bag of usable medicine powder.

Zuo Feng entered a crazy state. In addition to sleeping and restoring his spiritual energy, he spent all his time on refining medicine.

On the evening of the fourth day, Zuo Feng looked at the last iron heart grass in the medicine furnace and finished refining it. His eyes couldn't help but condense slightly. This was the first time in four days that he successfully refined all the medicines. The next step was to merge all the previously refined medicines together.

At this time, Zuo Feng even tried to slow down his breathing. His hand pressing the furnace wall couldn't help but tremble slightly. It was not clear whether he was excited or afraid of failure. Under his gaze, the colorful medicine slowly gathered in the middle of the medicine furnace, and the flame became much milder under his control than before.

If an intermediate alchemist was here, he would definitely sneer at Zuo Feng's current behavior, because Zuo Feng actually carefully controlled the medicine to merge two by two. If it were a junior alchemist with some experience, he would have adopted the method of fusing all at once. Because the materials used to make all the primary medicine powders are extremely stable and mild medicinal materials, there is no possibility of failure unless there is a big mistake in the fusion.

But Zuo Feng knew nothing about this. He carefully fused all the liquid medicines together little by little until all the liquid medicines were fused into a dark green liquid medicine, and then he dared to breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he hurriedly wrapped the liquid medicine with spiritual energy, and a new spiritual energy was sent out, and the liquid medicine automatically flew out of the medicine furnace. Zuo Feng hurriedly caught the liquid medicine with a jade bottle.

If you want to achieve the best effect, it is natural to continue to condense the liquid medicine immediately after refining it. But Zuo Feng carefully took out the liquid medicine, and at the same time meditated to restore some spiritual energy, and then continued to work on the last step of making the powder medicine.

When the liquid medicine put into the medicine furnace slowly turned into green crystals in the flames, Zuo Feng knew that he had finally succeeded. Then he took out a piece of oil paper and poured the extracted crystal into it.

There was still some warmth on the powder. Looking at the slightly flawed crystal surface, Zuo Feng knew that his medicine refining this time could only be regarded as barely successful.

He gently touched a little green crystal with his fingertips. Zuo Feng first put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it. A faint fragrance came into his nose. Zuo Feng smiled slightly, put the finger with the crystal into his mouth, and swallowed the saliva mixed with the powder into his stomach with a roll of his tongue.

It didn't take long for Zuo Feng to feel a warm feeling coming from his lower abdomen. Then a trace of spiritual energy rose from his internal organs. The small amount of spiritual energy consumed by the medicine refining just now also recovered quickly under the effect of the medicine.
