Chapter 18: Waste Terminator
"Open the furnace——"
Dang! !
Yan Xing looked over and saw a figure sitting cross-legged in the void. In front of him stood a huge dark green furnace. He made seals with his hands and pointed fiercely.
The furnace roared with thunder, and then the lid was lifted into the air. A group of pills flashing with strange light shot out, bound by a force, and fell into the jade bottle obediently.
"Not bad, a perfect second-grade elixir."
Elixir is divided into nine grades, with the first grade being the lowest and the ninth grade being the highest; golden elixir is divided into nine turns, with the first turn being the lowest and the ninth turn being the highest.
Each grade of elixir is further divided into: incomplete, ordinary, top-grade, and perfect according to its quality.
The man held the jade bottle in his hand, looking tired. It was not because of refining this mere second-grade elixir, but because of the continuous high-intensity elixir refining day and night recently, which consumed his spirit greatly. He had to rest for a while every time he opened the furnace.
"Open the furnace in half an hour!"
After instructing the outer door servant who was waiting not far away, the man put away the jade bottle, stood up and walked into the quiet room not far away, and began to meditate and regulate his breath.
The outer door servants will prepare the medicinal materials and clean the medicinal residue in the furnace.
This scene can be seen everywhere in the vast underground space. According to Green Hair, this fire cave is relatively small, with only 300 alchemy furnaces in total.
The requirements for ground fire in refining tools are not high, just enough heat to melt the materials.
But alchemy is different. Alchemy is a delicate job. The ground fire that meets the requirements must be formed by the intersection of fire and wood veins. This kind of ground fire is warm and can greatly retain the medicinal power of the medicine stone.
"Li Bo, you are finally here, hurry up, distribute the manpower, our Qingling Talisman will not last long!"
Seeing Green Hair bringing the handover manpower, the servants in the underground cave were delighted and greeted loudly, not wanting to stay here for a moment.
"Right away, what are you panicking about?"
Li Bo laughed and scolded, and led everyone to start the handover. Almost everyone had to take over a pill furnace. Yan Xing took the initiative to ask to stay, and he took over a more difficult task.
That was to transport the medicinal residue, which was the most tiring and dangerous job. Naturally, no one competed with him, and he was happy to do so.
The reason given by Yan Xing was that he suffered from "drug blindness" and could not distinguish even the simplest herbs.
"Hahaha, there are so many strange things in the world. I have only heard of face blindness and night blindness, but this is the first time I have heard of drug blindness. Well, since that's the case, I'll trouble Brother Yan!"
"Brother Yan is straightforward! After the shift, I will invite Brother Yan to have a drink. If you need any help, just ask directly, we will never say anything!"
These rich kids are very afraid of death. Seeing that the most difficult job has been settled, they all complimented him again and again. It is unknown whether there are some truths in their words.
Yan Xing shrugged his shoulders, not taking these people seriously at all. He turned around and left with an old disciple with a dark complexion and a haggard face, and began to hand over the task.
"Hey, kid, practice well and get promoted to the inner sect as soon as possible. This damn place is not for people to stay."
A good young man, now he looks like an old man. The poisonous gas of the pill is really fierce.
"Well, thank you, I understand."
Yan Xing nodded, thanked the other party for his kindness, and quickly completed the handover.
What he had to do was very simple, that is, to collect the medicine residues cleaned out of the pill furnace, and transport them to a specially built storage room with a cart.
In Yan Xing's view, the medicine residues were like nuclear waste, emitting mixed poisonous gas all the time. If they were piled up in place, these poisonous gas could even affect the pills being refined.
Therefore, he needed to walk back and forth among the three hundred alchemy furnaces. Once he saw an alchemy furnace that needed to be emptied of medicinal residue, he would immediately transport it away to create a clean environment before the alchemist opened the furnace next time.
"Brother Yan, here, transport the medicinal residue!"
As soon as Yan Xing took over, he heard a shout from afar. Then he was shocked, lifted up the huge metal cart, and rushed over with a rumble, full of energy.
"Get out of the way! The cart is coming!"
The cart weighing a thousand pounds was like a toy in Yan Xing's hands. In a few breaths, it was pushed under an alchemy furnace. The fire hole here has been temporarily sealed by the formation, but the high temperature remaining in the air is still extremely hot.
These alchemy furnaces are all standard, with three legs, two ears, and a round belly. The whole body is engraved with inscriptions. The furnace feet alone are two feet high. The entire alchemy furnace is ten feet high, like a ten-story building, a huge monster.
There was a small opening just below the furnace. When the cart reached it, the inscriptions on the two interacted and the furnace opened automatically. The next moment, the dark dregs gushed out, and the pungent smell hit the face. There was no so-called elixir fragrance. Yan Xing frowned when he heard it.
The old disciples left after they finished their instructions. The new disciple who was left behind was a little flustered for the first time. He hurriedly manipulated a metal rod to go deep into the furnace and clean up the dregs left on the furnace wall.
A furnace of elixir, a large amount of medicinal materials, they can extract very little essence, most of the remaining is dregs, and various toxic substances that have been removed also remain in the dregs.
This elixir furnace seemed to have eaten Wallace and turned into a jet fighter. It took a long time to poop clean, and Yan Xing was stunned.
"Brother Yan, it's done, thank you for your help!"
The child stood far away, and the meaning was very clear, he wanted Yan Xing to push the dregs away quickly.
"Yes."
Yan Xing nodded slightly, and with both hands, he returned with more than a thousand kilograms of medicinal residue. Wherever he passed, everyone avoided him.
Just kidding, who wouldn't be scared when seeing this truckload of "nuclear waste"?
The place where the medicine residue is stored is far away from the fire hole. It is a hole dug deep in the rock layer. The surrounding rock walls are covered with a thick gray-white metal with inscriptions engraved on it, which can effectively isolate the poisonous gas of the elixir.
Only when this place is full will there be special people to deal with it for the second time. If this thing is thrown away carelessly, it will pollute the mountains, rivers, and even the air. Once a mortal creature is contaminated, it will surely die.
There was once a small country that caused the death of all the creatures in a river thousands of miles up and down because of the random dumping of medicine residue. Feixian Dongtian was furious. The fate of this small country can be imagined. It was directly destroyed by the iron fist of justice.
As a force of justice and order, Feixian Dongtian will naturally set a good example to avoid giving people a reason to criticize, and will spend a lot of effort to deal with the medicine residue every time.
Alchemy is a delicate job, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, although there are 300 alchemy furnaces, Yan Xing ran a few times and then became idle.
Yan Xing looked around. The underground space was busy. Those alchemists who had some free time were also trying their best to regulate their breathing. No one noticed him at all.
"Let me see how powerful this thing is."
Reaching into his arms, he took out the Qingguang Talisman and stuffed it directly into his mouth and swallowed it. His stomach churned and a hot current immediately flowed to his limbs and bones.
Sure enough, there was an extraordinary power on this talisman. [Swallowing the Heaven and Devouring the Earth] could digest it. Although it was weak, it was comparable to eating half a meal of blood. The physical value also increased by 0.003, and 9.6 kilograms of strength was obtained!
Yan Xing was standing at the door of the medicine residue storage room at this time. Without the filtering protection of the Qingguang Talisman, in just a moment, the poison entered his body and his skin became gray and withered. This was a manifestation of the death of a large number of cells in the body.
——
The main body is corroded by the poisonous gas, the flesh and blood wither, and the main body undergoes unknown mutation and evolution, the resistance to wood and stone poison is improved, and it merges with biological poison resistance, and mutates. The main body can control poisons, swallow poisons to nourish itself, and continue to strengthen... Please name it.
Talent: Wan'e Poison Body!
——
Done!
Yan Xing was delighted. This talent is not bad. It has the triple effects of attack, enhancement of cultivation, and defense resistance. It seems that I will have to deal with poisons more in the future.
Your arsenic is my elixir.
Swallowing poisons can not only enhance cultivation, but also create a killer for yourself. The way of poisoning is a good thing that can kill people invisibly.
"Huh! Comfortable——"
Wrapped in the rich poisonous gas, Yan Xing was like soaking in a hot spring. Not only did his gray skin return to its original color, but it also faintly flashed with fluorescence. Every pore was swallowing the poison, and after an inexplicable transformation, it became a pure energy to nourish the body.
"I can go even faster!"
This physical improvement is long-lasting, not a short-term surge. Yan Xing glanced around, but no one noticed him, let alone the ghost place of the medicine residue storage room.
Sneaking around, his feet slipped, Yan Xing directly sideways into the storage room, reached out to grab the medicine residue, and stuffed it into his mouth frantically.
Ugh! !
This disgusting smell is pungent and nauseating. Yan Xing just stagnated, but instead accelerated the speed of swallowing, his face was horrible.
Compared to the evolution and strength of life, this little sin is nothing?
——
The main body's taste buds are stimulated, and unknown changes occur. The taste buds can be controlled by the mind, and the odor particles in the air can be captured and sensed. It continues to strengthen...
——
Well, it seems that it is not easy for him to suffer. It is also a small talent. There is no need to name this kind of thing.
All kinds of medicinal materials have different medicinal properties, that is, essences. This essence is very complicated, and not all of them are needed by alchemists.
Therefore, the alchemist would only carefully extract the medicinal essences that he needed, and the rest would lose the value of secondary extraction and be directly discarded in the medicinal residues, becoming the so-called elixir poison.
The medicinal residues became waste materials that everyone avoided because of the elixir poison, but the energy contained in them was not less because of the residual medicinal essence.
At least stronger than those wild beasts' blood food.
The medicinal materials that can be used to refine the elixir are not ordinary things, but precious medicines with rich spiritual energy. Their value is not comparable to those ordinary medicines used to stew wild meat.
"Yan! Brother——"
"Pull! Medicine! Slag!!"
The shrill cry can be said to be heartbreaking. He was really scared and didn't want to stay with the terrible medicinal residues for even a moment.
"Okay! Hiccup~~"
Yan Xing quickly shut up, a strong smell of medicine spread out, and he jumped out of the storage room, picked up the cart and rushed out.
"Here it comes! The cart is here!"
With a glance, the data on the self-check panel was updated. After the accumulation of the past few days, it finally changed again. The physical strength was 6.1, and the strength and agility became 5.1.
Just a moment ago, the poison from the medicinal residue he swallowed brought him a 0.01 value increase, which is 32 kilograms of strength.
What if he stayed here for half a day?
Yan Xing's heart was warmed, and his steps quickened. He shuttled back and forth between the alchemy furnaces, coming and going at will. This vigorous appearance made the servants stunned, and the alchemists nodded secretly. Yes, he is a diligent little guy. Tianlai Novel Network
After emptying a round of medicinal residue, as long as he had free time, Yan Xing would sneakily swallow and eat wildly, even [Swallowing the Heaven and Devouring the Earth] was stimulated to continue to increase.
The work of chores is done in two shifts a day. They take over at noon, and it is not until midnight that the old disciples take over.
Everyone was relieved, except Yan Xing, who was reluctant to leave. He kept looking back, fearing that someone would steal his medicine residue and wished he could live here.
He took the elevator back to the ground. When he walked out of the hall, the moon was already bright in the sky. When the crowd had gathered, a vortex gate appeared out of thin air.
"Yan Xing, wait!"
Looking back, it was the green-haired man named Li Bo who quietly put a pill into Yan Xing's hand and whispered, "This is what the alchemist asked me to give you. Yan Xing, your hard work is seen by the adults, do a good job!"
Yan Xing: "..."
After many twists and turns, he returned to his small house. Yan Xing lay on the bed, admiring the self-check panel over and over again, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Physical 6.5, strength 5.5, agility 5.5.
In half a day, it directly increased by 0.4, 1280 kilograms of strength!
The growth rate of this physical body is really too exaggerated. If it were in his previous life, he would have to endure five years of hardship.
Thinking of this, Yan Xing's expression was dazed, full of expectations for tomorrow.
