Peerless Insect Deity

Even though Ye Lin was standing more than ten feet away, he could feel the temperature around him rising rapidly.

Then Ye Lin heard a "clang" sound, and the tops of the alchemy furnaces, which were as big as millstones, flew up quickly under the drag of the magic power of the spirit insects, until they slowly floated about three feet away from the alchemy furnace.

Then, various spiritual herbs were wrapped in magic power and thrown into the alchemy furnace in a certain order. Even without seeing, Ye Lin could clearly sense that these spiritual herbs were melted into strands of pure medicinal power and five elements of essence by the high temperature as soon as they were thrown into the alchemy furnace.

These medicinal power and five elements of essence mixed together and slowly floated in the alchemy furnace, like a nebula.

As more and more spiritual herbs were thrown into it, the temperature in the alchemy furnace became higher and higher, and the nebula formed by the medicinal power and five elements of essence became denser and denser.

After a few hours, all the alchemy furnaces were shining with a faint colorful glow, which was the brilliance of the five elements of essence.

Then there was another muffled "clang" sound, and the lid of the alchemy furnace that was originally floating in the sky suddenly closed. The magic formulas spewed out from the mouths of the spirit insects and continuously hit the alchemy furnace. Ye Lin could sense that the nebula in the alchemy furnace was slowly condensing towards the center under the urging of the magic formula.

As far as Ye Lin knew, the formation of elixir was divided into three stages, which was a bit similar to cultivation.

The first stage was to extract the essence of medicinal power and the five elements. This was the simplest stage. As long as the recipe was correct, the order of putting in the medicinal materials was correct, and the temperature in the alchemy furnace was kept within the temperature required by the recipe, there would not be too many problems.

But even so, it was extremely difficult for an alchemy layman to do the first stage well. If any of these conditions were wrong, it would be possible for the five elements and the essence of medicinal power to disappear into nothingness.

The second stage of alchemy was to condense the medicinal power cloud into liquid medicinal power essence.

This stage will test the patience of the alchemist and the rhythm of entering the formula into the alchemy furnace. Different alchemists have different rhythms, and the faster the rhythm, the easier it is to make mistakes. Every mistake in the second stage may lead to a decline in the quality of the pill. If there are too many mistakes, the pills refined will naturally be useless or poisonous, which is equivalent to a failure in alchemy.

The different rhythms of entering the formula also affect the efficiency of alchemy. If you are familiar with it and keep entering the formula at a fast pace, the alchemy process will be shorter. If you enter the formula slowly, the alchemy process will be longer. However, as long as all the formulas are completed within the fixed time of the pill recipe, the quality of the pill will not be affected.

The third stage is to condense the essence of liquid medicinal power into solid pills. This is the most critical step. It mainly tests the alchemist's control of medicinal power fusion and temperature.

Even the lowest-level pills, such as the Great Strength Pill, can increase the strength of a horse by one-third in a short period of time after eating. In the last stage, it also has to go through three temperature changes, and the Qi Gathering Pill has to go through five temperature changes to perfectly integrate the medicinal power.

If something goes wrong during this period, the pill may be directly scrapped, or the quality of the pill may be reduced. The worst case is that the furnace will explode.

The demon fire, earth fire or strange fire of the alchemist are usually constant temperature, and the temperature will not change much, but the temperature in the pill furnace can be controlled by magic formula, but it can only be controlled within a certain range.

In these three stages, as long as there is a mistake once, the pill will no longer be of top quality. It is precisely because the conditions are so harsh that the top pill is extremely precious.

Another one or two hours passed, and Ye Lin sensed that the gaseous medicinal essence in each pill furnace began to slowly turn into liquid. The liquid medicinal essence shone with five-color light, floating in the center of the pill furnace and rotating slowly.

What surprised Ye Lin was that so far, no spirit insect had made consecutive mistakes or huge mistakes. Although it can be sensed that the quality of the liquid medicinal essence is good or bad, at least no spirit insect has refined it into a waste pill or a poisonous pill in advance.

It seems that these little guys are all trying their best today, and everyone wants to drink his blood.

This made Ye Lin feel relieved.

"According to this trend, the success rate of this alchemy should not be too bad. In fact, I expected that as long as there is a success rate of one-third, it would be acceptable!"

Ye Lin had calculated before that a success rate of one-third, considering that the quality will not be all low-grade, should allow Ye Lin to recover his investment and make a small profit.

It is said that experienced alchemists often fail in refining Qi Gathering Pills, and the overall success rate of refining Qi Gathering Pills is only one-half.

And the alchemists who can succeed with a high probability can already be called well-known alchemists. As for those who can often refine top-quality Qi Gathering Pills, they can already be called alchemy masters!

However, Ye Lin believes that the alchemy masters in the cultivation world of Xunlong Mountain Range are really a bit overflowing, and the title of "master" is more of a compliment.

In Ye Lin's mind, only those who can stably refine top-quality foundation-building pills can be called true masters of alchemy.

After waiting for another hour, seeing that no spirit insects had condensed all the essence of the medicine into liquid, and that it would take at least one day to complete the pill, Ye Lin stopped watching the spirit insects making pills.

He gave a few instructions to Can Yi and Can Er, asking them to continue making pills, while he checked the breath and life status of the three spirit insects, Xiao Bai, Xiao Qiang, and Xiao Lan.

After confirming that there were no unexpected situations for the three of them, he waved his sleeves, and one insect breeding room after another appeared in the empty sand.

Next, he naturally had to hatch a large number of new species of spiritual insects according to his plan to increase the diversity of his spiritual insects.

Ye Lin first placed 5,000 fart insect eggs in the largest insect breeding room, and then placed the eggs of three kinds of spiritual insects, the golden-backed man-eating ants, the silver-moon mantis, and the two-winged centipede, which he had collected from the Ten Thousand Mountains, in different insect breeding rooms.

Finally, Ye Lin ordered several thousand silk spiders with the eighth and ninth levels of Qi training to watch day and night and observe the hatching of the spiritual insects, and then his consciousness withdrew from the ancient ring space.

After returning to the outside world, Ye Lin took out the big wooden basin again, cut his wrist, and a lot of blood flowed in a small wooden basin. This blood was naturally prepared for these little guys who were about to hatch.

If it weren't for the fusion of Ye Lin's blood, it would take a long time to hatch them all.

After doing all this, Ye Lin swallowed a top-grade blood-replenishing pill and breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked out the window.

At this time, the moon was already high in the sky, and the lake was sparkling.

"Fortunately, I didn't lose much blood. It seems that I can practice tonight. Besides, I didn't see my senior sister last night. I was a little uncomfortable..."

Ye Lin muttered a few words, and walked into the practice room in the courtyard with a hint of expectation.

Not long after, the senior sister, wearing a thin veil, appeared beside Ye Lin on time with a hint of shyness and extreme charm.
