Chapter 10 Trial

The interior of Danxia Mountain has been hollowed out and transformed into alchemy rooms and weapon refining rooms of various sizes. If a Qi Refining Disciple wants to refine an elixir or a weapon, they will rent a secret room in Danxia Mountain.

There is a black hall more than ten feet high on the hillside, and people come in and out from time to time.

As soon as you enter the hall, you will see a hall of a hundred feet in size. A dozen red-clothed disciples are guarding near a long black counter, responsible for leading the way for those who rent secret rooms.

"I want to rent an alchemy room," Shi Yue walked to the counter and said to the deacon disciple behind the counter.

"One spirit stone a day, how long do you want to rent it for," the deacon disciple glanced at Shi Yue and asked lightly.

"Two days," Shi Yue thought about it and said so. After that, he took out two spirit stones and put them on the counter.

"Zhao Feng, take him to the alchemy room No. 45. The time is two days," the deacon disciple instructed a fair-faced man in red. After that, he took out a red square token and threw it to the man in red.

"Follow me." The man in red said and walked towards a passage on the left side of the hall.

Seeing this, Shi Yue hurriedly followed. After turning seven or eight times, he followed the man in red to a row of closed stone rooms. The air was filled with a faint smell of medicine.

He noticed that several red-clothed disciples were guarding outside the stone room, as if waiting for something.

The man in red came to a stone room engraved with the three big characters "Forty-five" and put the square token into a groove on the stone door.

After injecting mana, the square token shone brightly.

The next moment, with a "boom", the stone door opened.

This alchemy room is not big, about 50-60 meters in size. In the center of the room is an antique yellow alchemy furnace. On the three walls of the stone room, there are two lifelike golden-red dragon heads, and the dragon heads are slightly raised, just aiming at the alchemy furnace, making a spitting gesture, which is very realistic.

In front of the yellow alchemy furnace, there is an emerald green cushion.

"My junior brother, the earth fire needed for alchemy is ejected from these six dragon heads, and the size and height of the flames can be adjusted according to needs. The specific driving method is recorded in this token," the red-clothed man pointed to the six dragon heads and explained to Shi Yue. After that, he handed the square token to Shi Yue. He immediately remembered something and continued:

"You only paid two spirit stones, so you can only stay here for two days. I will call you out when the time is up. If you stay inside for more than two days, you need to pay the fee. In addition, once this stone door is closed, it will be isolated from the outside world. Unless a Jindan stage cultivator takes action, no one can enter from the outside, so junior brother, just rest assured to make the alchemy, no one will disturb you!"

"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother," Shi Yue bowed his hands to thank him.

The red-clothed man nodded, and after a few more instructions, he retreated.

Shi Yue injected mana into the square token, and a red light spurted out from it and sank into the stone door.

With a "bang", the stone door closed automatically.

Shi Yue sat cross-legged on the futon, placed the square token on his forehead, and used his spiritual consciousness to penetrate it and check the contents.

Not long after, he withdrew his spiritual consciousness, pinched the spell with both hands, and hit the dragon head with six spells in a row. The dragon head immediately shone brightly, and then the dragon opened its mouth and sprayed out a finger-thick red flame. The six red flames finally condensed together at the bottom of the yellow furnace.

Seeing this, Shi Yue changed the spell in his hand, and the flames sprayed from the dragon head became much thicker, and the rolling flames submerged the yellow furnace.

Seeing this scene, he nodded with satisfaction, and the spell was retracted, and the rolling flames dissipated and disappeared.

Then he took out the jade slip that recorded the method of refining the Bigu Pill and put it on his forehead.

After a cup of tea, Shi Yue memorized the steps of refining the Bigu Pill by heart, and then put away the jade slip.

The essence of alchemy is actually the process of decomposing and reorganizing some medicinal materials and condensing them into pills using high temperatures.

Everyone knows this process, but not many people can actually make pills. After all, the successful refining of pills requires the ability of the alchemist in material preparation, temperature control, and furnace time.

Even if there is a slight deviation in one of the links, it may lead to the failure of the entire refining process. Therefore, learning to make pills requires a large amount of spiritual stones, and only wealthy cultivators can afford the spiritual stones spent on learning to make pills.

The speed of time in the mysterious space is ten times that of the outside world. As long as there are seeds, a large number of spiritual medicines can be grown, and this is the capital for Shi Yue to learn to make pills.

The first step in refining the Bigu Pill is to clean the spiritual rice, peel off the shell, and grind it into powder. Then, clean the blood fruit and purple apricot, and cut off the pulp. The second step is to throw the spiritual rice powder and the pulp of the blood fruit and purple apricot into the pill furnace to refine it into pills.

There are two steps in total. The first step is very simple, which is to clean the alchemy materials and process the materials. Whether it can be refined into a bigu pill depends on the second step.

Shi Yue took out a few spiritual rice, peeled off the shell, cleaned it, cut it into small pieces with a dagger, and ground it into powder. Then, he took out a blood fruit and a purple apricot, cleaned them, cut off the flesh, and put it into the spiritual rice powder.

He cast six spells on the six dragon heads, and each dragon head spewed out a finger-thick red flame, which gathered at the bottom of the yellow furnace and slowly warmed up.

After half a quarter of an hour, the yellow furnace had become hot, emitting an astonishingly high temperature.

Seeing this, Shi Yue cast a spell on the lid of the furnace, which immediately flew up and landed steadily on the ground. Then, he poured the spiritual rice powder and the flesh of the blood fruit and purple apricot into the furnace one after another.

He pinched a spell with one hand and pointed at the furnace, and the lid flew up and closed steadily.

In the furnace, the flesh was baked at high temperature and turned into several balls of juice in the furnace. These juices mixed with the spiritual rice powder and turned into a light yellow viscous substance.

As time passed, the water in the juice slowly evaporated, and the remaining was the essence.

A faint fragrance floated out of the furnace.

Seeing this, Shi Yue changed the spell in his hand, and the flames from the dragon head suddenly doubled in size, and the rolling flames submerged the furnace.

A quarter of an hour passed, and the fragrance became stronger and stronger.

At this time, most of his mana was consumed, but he did not dare to relax at all, he hoped to hold on until the pill came out of the furnace.

Half a quarter of an hour later, with a "bang", the yellow furnace in front of Shi Yue, which was submerged in the rolling flames, emitted a puff of black smoke, and there was a faint smell of burning.

Seeing this, Shi Yue raised his eyebrows, retracted the spell in his hand, and the flames around the furnace suddenly dissipated out of thin air.

Then, he hit the lid of the tripod with a spell, and the lid flew up automatically and landed steadily on the ground.

He stood up and walked quickly to the side of the furnace. Looking down, he saw a dark brown object at the bottom of the furnace, emitting a burnt smell.

Shi Yue sighed and shook his head. The first time he refined the pill failed.

He recalled carefully that the steps of alchemy were strictly in accordance with the steps recorded in the classics. If there was a problem, it was probably in the control time of the flame.

After figuring this out, Shi Yue dumped the black waste at the bottom of the furnace.

Then he took out a baby's fist-sized Gu Gu, peeled off the shell, cleaned it and ground it into powder, then took out a blood fruit and a purple apricot, cleaned them and cut off the flesh.

After closing the lid of the tripod, Shi Yue pinched his hands and six magic spells hit the six dragon heads in succession. The six dragon heads each sprayed a finger-thick red flame and gathered at the bottom of the furnace.

Time passed by little by little. Two quarters of an hour passed. It seemed that it was about to succeed. At the last moment, there was a "bang" and a pungent smell of burning came out of the furnace.

The second alchemy also failed.

After resting for a while and recovering his mana, Shi Yue started the third alchemy.

He took out a portion of the material, processed it, poured it into the furnace, and then controlled the dragon head to spray flames.

This time, it still failed.

Seeing this, Shi Yue showed a determined look on his face. He didn't believe that he couldn't even refine a furnace of fasting pills. He took out another portion of the material and started to refine.

The fourth time also ended in failure.

The fifth time still failed.

The sixth time still didn't succeed.

······

One day later, a muffled "bang" sound came from the alchemy room, and the furnace in front of Shi Yue, which was submerged in the rolling flames, once again emitted a puff of black smoke and a burnt smell.

Shi Yue's face suddenly sank, and after a light sigh, he retracted the spell in his hand, and the flames around the furnace suddenly dissipated.

I don't know how many times he has failed. The blood fruit and purple apricots have been used up, and he hasn't even refined a fasting pill.

Although the classics have long stated that it is normal for beginners to fail hundreds of times, Shi Yue was still hit hard when he really faced such a situation.

From the initial enthusiasm, he became extremely depressed now.

The blood fruit and purple apricots were used up, and it was impossible for him to continue to make pills now.

After being depressed, Shi Yue slowly regained his composure. There were many problems with the failure of this pill refining. In addition to the accident of flame control, it was also closely related to the processing of materials. He planned to find a few alchemy books from the Sutra Library to read, or ask the alchemist for advice, and then consider re-starting the furnace to make pills.

You know, alchemy consumes white spirit stones!

Shi Yue felt distressed when he thought of wasting dozens of spirit stones.

He stood up, shook the square token in his hand, and a red light shot out and sank into the door.

With a "bang", the door opened, and Shi Yue raised his foot and walked out.

"Hey, Junior Brother, you came out so soon? Less than two days," the red-clothed man who was guarding outside said in surprise when he saw Shi Yue.

"The materials are used up, and I will return the forbidden token to you." Shi Yue explained, and after returning the square token to the red-clothed man, he raised his foot and walked back the way he came.
