Although everyone's understanding of the way of medicine is different, the steps of refining medicine are generally the same, which can be divided into three steps in total.
The first step is burning.
All kinds of medicinal materials, according to their properties, are burned in a certain order with high temperature to form a medicinal liquid, and the impurities contained in them are slowly removed, leaving only the required medicinal properties.
The second step, fusion.
Combine all the medicinal liquids together.
The third step is Cheng Dan.
Slowly lower the temperature of the flame, so that the fused medicinal liquid gradually condenses into the desired shape, such as pill, powder, ointment, dew, etc.
The whole process is simple to say, but extremely complicated to do.
For example, the first step, using high temperature to melt medicinal materials, seems to be done by everyone, but different medicinal materials have different melting points.
Some medicinal materials need low temperature to melt, while some medicinal materials may need extremely high temperature to melt.
This requires precise control over the temperature of the flame.
If the temperature is too high, the medicinal materials will be directly burned into gas, but if the temperature is too low, the medicinal materials will not be completely burned into liquid medicine.
What's more, during the burning process, the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials should be stimulated as much as possible.
A slight difference is a thousand miles away!
Even if it is just a single medicinal material, if the medicinal properties are stimulated a little less or a little more, it will affect the efficacy of the final medicine.
There is even a great possibility that the life-saving elixir will become a murderous poison.
Not to mention the mixing of various medicinal materials, the distribution of medicinal properties is extremely particular.
In short, the addition of these complicated steps has made it extremely difficult to successfully refine the elixir.
Guan Yiming and the others who started more than half an hour earlier than Jiang Yun, when Jiang Yun started refining, the fastest among them had already completed the burning step.
But not long after Jiang Yun threw the first medicinal material into the flower stove, there was a loud noise not far from him.
The pill furnace of a third-grade pharmacist exploded!
The pharmacist's complexion suddenly turned extremely pale, because it meant that everything he had done for more than an hour before was in vain and he needed to start all over again.
In this fifth round of the competition, although the ten people kept a certain distance between each other, there was no isolation formation around each person.
Therefore, the other nine people could clearly hear such an explosion.
This is naturally done on purpose.
As a pharmacist, although he usually refines medicine in a special alchemy room, he is rarely affected by external forces and objects.
However, a real pharmacist must have a strong psychological quality of not moving before the landslide.
All nine people heard the sound of the fryer, but seven people did not respond.
But then, there were two loud bangs, and the pill furnaces of two third-rank pharmacists exploded.
Apparently affected by the sound, under the shock of the mind, something went wrong.
Although the two pharmacists of the second fryer wanted to swallow the pharmacist of the first fryer alive, they didn't have the time.
One by one hurriedly took out a cauldron again and started refining again.
Frying ovens are actually the most common situation for pharmacists.
If any pharmacist has not fried the furnace, he is ashamed to say that he is a pharmacist.
Therefore, for a sect as rich and powerful as the God of Medicine Sect, the pharmacists under the sect basically always have several alchemy furnaces on hand, just in case of emergency.
Jiang Yun simply ignored everything around him, and his mind was completely immersed in the medicinal materials in front of him.
The number of medicinal materials required for the Butian Pill has reached 21, which is not too many, but it is definitely not too small.
Fortunately, Jiang Yun is no stranger to these 21 medicinal materials, so he immediately selected several medicinal materials with similar melting points, and started to burn them with flames at the same time.
Although Jiang Yun was the last to start, he took the longest time to prepare and had the most solid foundation.
In addition, his spiritual sense and control over spiritual energy are extremely powerful, so the time to complete this first step is still much faster than others.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yun burned all the medicinal materials into liquid medicine with trepidation, and their respective medicinal properties were aroused.
Next, fusion!
theAnd this process is the most prone to the fryer!
Just like the previous third round, Jiang Yun came to the same conclusion based on the analysis of the medicine.
The properties of various medicinal materials will have mutual generation and mutual restraint. Once they are fused, if the mutual restraint is greater than the mutual generation, it will fry the furnace. Therefore, when merging, there must be order and proportion.
Just as Jiang Yun was fusing the liquid medicine, dull sounds, like firecrackers, kept ringing in his ears.
Except for the three people who fried the furnace earlier, the other six people, even Guan Yiming and Xiao Zheng, all appeared in the furnace!
Ten people, nine fryers!
This naturally stunned the onlookers, but it made Jiang Yun suddenly feel a little doubtful.
Although frying furnaces are very common, the nine people other than myself all often refine third-grade elixirs and have extremely rich experience. Logically speaking, it should not be possible for all of them to fry furnaces.
"Could it be, is there anything weird about this fusion process?"
The emergence of this idea made Jiang Yun want to see the expression of the current Elder Han. If this pill was given by someone else, then Jiang Yun might not have this idea.
But this Elder Han, maybe!
On this point, it is not difficult to see that the opponent's character is quite "casual" from the fact that the opponent used the pill furnace as a kind of medicinal material to let himself judge the temperature of the pill.
In any case, with the fryer of the nine pharmacists in front, Jiang Yun didn't dare to relax in the slightest, so he cheered up and mixed the liquid medicine little by little.
Although Jiang Yun has minimized the possibility of the fryer by doing this, the time it takes has naturally been extended accordingly.
When the other nine people have completed the burning step of the second refining, Jiang Yun has not yet completed the fusion of medicinal materials.
But the time for the competition is almost two hours away.
Even Elder Han was secretly worried for Jiang Yun. Unless Jiang Yun could succeed once, otherwise, once he failed, the remaining time would not be enough for him to complete the second refining.
However, Jiang Yun at this time, instead of being anxious, showed joy in his eyes.
"I see, it's this Boundless Beast Pill!"
"There are male and female beasts in the vastness, but the attributes of the beast pills of the two are exactly the opposite."
"It's just that female pills are too rare, so in the pharmacist's habitual cognition, as long as they see the boundless animal pill, they will think it is a male pill, so the explosion will happen after fusion."
Having figured this out, Jiang Yun hastily changed the fusion process of the Boundless Beast Pill, but as a result, there was no fryer.
However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the flower stove suddenly shook violently.
Jiang Yun's complexion froze for a moment, and the flame controlled by the spiritual energy turned into snowflakes in an instant, freezing the entire flower-scattering furnace, which was regarded as avoiding the fate of the fryer.
But even so, the medicinal liquid transformed by the medicinal materials in the furnace is completely in vain.
Failed on the first attempt!
Ten people, the first alchemy, all failed!
"Although I thought that the Boundless Beast Pill was female, I didn't expect that the medicinal properties of the female Boundless Beast Pellet were 10% less than that of the male Pellet!"
"Come again!"
Jiang Yun turned the snowflakes into flames again, and continued to start the second round of refining.
But at this time, the time left for him is less than an hour! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
