Dou Po: The Alchemist from the Ye Family

After resting for almost an hour, Ye Chen opened his eyes and came to the medicine cauldron again.

Next, you only need to melt the fire attribute magic core, and then you can start to combine the elixirs...

The first half of this step is not difficult for Ye Chen. After all, his star fire has grown a lot at this time, and it is not difficult at all to use the temperature to fuse a first-order magic core.

As for Hedan...

Combining elixirs is the last and most critical step in refining medicine.

Various materials have different resistance to temperature. Therefore, the alchemist must learn to control the flame temperature anywhere in the cauldron at will...

Where low temperature is required, the flame must be suppressed; where high temperature is required, the suppression must be released to increase the flame temperature.

This process must be precise and fast, otherwise even if it is slower by a second, the refined materials may be scrapped.

This is also the ultimate test of an alchemist's flame control and soul power perception sensitivity.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and looked at the magic core in the medicine cauldron that had melted into a ball of liquid. He looked sternly at the medicinal materials next to him.

The order in which the materials are added is recorded on the recipe. Nowadays, you only need to add them in order strictly according to the requirements.

He picked up a box of black granular materials and put it directly into the medicine cauldron.

This is extracted from a medicinal material called orchid grass. It is actually used to neutralize the violent factor in the fire-attribute magic core, so as to avoid future conflicts with flame grass and other fire-attribute medicinal materials.

Licking his dry lips, Ye Chen separated out a bunch of soul perception, and worked hard to control the flames under the black particles to slowly increase the temperature...

Not only was Ye Chen nervous about this step, but Ye Zhong who was watching next to him was also worried, as if he had gone back to the time when his father taught him how to make medicine for the first time when he was a teenager.

Within the medicine cauldron, tiny black particles slowly floated into the crimson liquid under the increasing temperature, dyeing the latter's color even deeper...

First step, success!

This is a good start...

Next, Ye Chen carefully and continuously added the materials into the medicine cauldron, and then condensed and fused them at different temperatures. He actually completely integrated the seven materials into the droplet at once!

This scene made the three people present feel relieved...

Of course, Ye Chen will not relax because of this, after all, the refining of the medicine has not been completed yet.

After the elixir is successfully combined, Ye Chen still needs to slowly control the temperature of the flame to refine the droplets into a solid elixir. When the elixir is actually formed, the refining of the elixir is truly over.

For the sake of ninety-nine years, one fell short of success.

Ye Chen didn't want this kind of thing to happen to him.

So after he breathed a sigh of relief, he once again devoted all his attention to controlling the flames in the medicine cauldron.

Half an hour later, a Hunyuan fire-red elixir finally appeared in Ye Chen's hand.

Huoyuan Dan, successfully refined!

Even with the temperament of an adult, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel excited at this time. He quickly came to the front of his ancestor Ye Xun and raised the elixir in his hand high, like a naughty boy asking for reward.

He said eagerly: "Ancestor, please take a look at the quality of the Huoyuan Dan I refined."

For the same elixir, there will be slight differences when refined by different people.

Generally speaking, the more proficient an alchemist is, the higher the quality of the elixirs produced and the stronger the efficacy.

Holding this red elixir that looked like a dragon's eye, Ye Xun could see at a glance that although this Huoyuan elixir was not the best, its quality had already reached a high level. Generally, even those veterans who had been a first-level alchemist for many years could

It may not be possible to refine it...

Looking at the eager little Ye Chen in front of him, Ye Xun's face was full of hope and relief.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Three good words in a row also brought a smile to Ye Chen's face.

However, before he could completely let go of his joy, the dry palm holding the elixir in front of him suddenly fell down weakly...

The crimson Huoyuan Dan rolled to the ground and ran far away.

But no one cares about it at this time...

The little Ye Chen was already stunned by this sudden scene. With disbelief on his face, he looked at the old man in front of him lying weakly on the seat.

At this time, his mind was completely blank, and everything around him had disappeared...

Ye Chong's eyes were also red, but his expression remained calm.

This moment has been anticipated for a long time, right?

After seeing that Ye Chen had finally become an official alchemist, and a first-grade alchemist under eight years old, the first person in the entire Ye family in hundreds of years, the old man could finally let go.

Looking at his dull grandson, Ye Chong felt pity in his heart...

For a child less than eight years old, this must be the first time he has encountered separation between life and death, right? At this moment, his heart must be full of confusion.

After sending a message to the servants outside the courtyard, within a moment, Ye Lan and his wife hurriedly arrived at the small courtyard.

Looking at the skinny figure sitting above them, the two of them were startled at first, and then their expressions suddenly changed.

Ye Zhong waved his hand to stop Ye Lan from asking questions, but first said to his daughter-in-law Song Chun'er: "Take Chen'er down first..."

Song Chun'er hurriedly walked closer and looked at her son who was bowing his head and keeping silent. She suddenly felt heartbroken. She directly took her son into her arms and whispered: "Son, follow your mother..."

Ye Chen looked up at Song Chun'er, nodded silently, and left with his mother.

In fact, it was not like Ye Zhong, Song Chun'er and others thought that he had suffered such a big blow...

But he had also experienced this kind of scene of life and death in his previous life, with his grandfather, grandmother, and other relatives...

After all, everyone ages.

To be honest, the sudden death of the ancestor of the Ye family really caught him off guard.

Ever since he was sent to the ancestor of the Ye family to learn alchemy when he was five years old, this old man had no reservations about himself, and no matter how he made mistakes, he never got angry. He always taught him in a gentle voice, even if he

Occasionally I make mistakes, but I protect myself in every possible way...

This is because Ye Chen has strong self-control, otherwise with this level of pampering, he would have to teach a trash with eyes higher than his head!

When he thought that this old man who devoted all his energy to himself passed away like this, Ye Chen felt gratitude mixed with deep sadness...

Smiling, he persuaded Song Chuner, who looked worried, to go out. Ye Chen sat on his belly in the room, looking at the gloomy sky outside the window, and said silently in his heart: "Ancestor, you can watch from the sky. The Ye family will definitely be with me.

In my hands, I will reach the top again, even stronger! I, Ye Chen, guarantee it!"

Ye Chen's eyes were full of determination. It was only at this moment that he seemed to truly feel the responsibility that he should bear as the legitimate son of the Ye family!

A meteor suddenly streaked across the daytime sky and disappeared into the distant sky with firelight, which seemed to indicate something...

The Ye family has changed!
