After they left, Shi Fenglan walked out and said,””Little Bei Ran, what happened?”
“It’s nothing.” Shaking his head, Jiang Beiran led Xia Lingdang outside.
“Humph! ” If you don’t want to tell , then don’t tell …” Shi Fenglan made a face at Little Bei Ran’s back and returned to the central hall.
After leaving Tinglan Waterside Pavilion, Jiang Beiran brought Xia Lingdang back to Jinyao Town’s barrier.
Now that he had cald down for a day, it was ti to challenge alchemy again.
After entering the alchemy room, Jiang Beiran touched the Golden Crow Cauldron before sitting down cross-legged.
He decided to review the essence of alchemy and find out where his problem lay.
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth had the ability of “fusion and transformation”. What was fusion?
That was, under special conditions, spiritual energy could fuse with other substances to form a new ” special spiritual energy.”
For example, after the spiritual energy fused with the special earth vein, it ford the five elents spiritual vein, which could produce the special five elents spiritual energy.
When the spiritual energy fused with the natural treasures that could be refined into pills, the dicinal components would gradually sublimate and finally form a unique dicinal spiritual energy.
It was important to note that only a small portion of the dicinal substances in the treasure could fuse with the spiritual energy. The other large portion of the ingredients that did not have dicinal substances still existed.
This part would reflect the level of alchemy skills.
The lower level alchemists would remove the portion that did not transform into dicinal spiritual energy and extract the essence of the dicinal spiritual energy.
However, high-ranked alchemists could simulate and even optimize the process of the birth of dicinal spiritual energy. They could convert more than half of the spiritual energy that had not been converted into dicinal spiritual energy into dicinal spiritual energy. In this way, the value of the entire precious material would have a qualitative increase.
Therefore, the purpose of refining pills was very clear.
It was to first extract the dicinal spiritual energy from the precious material. After understanding the process of its birth, he would inject more spiritual energy into it so that the remaining portion that had not transford into spiritual energy would also transform into dicinal spiritual energy.
If one could convert 50% of a precious material into dicinal spiritual enerqv, it was enough to beco a seventh grade alchemist.
If one could convert 70% of a precious material into dicinal spiritual energy, that was sothing that only an alchemist of the eighth rank and above could do.
As for converting 100% of a precious material into dicinal spiritual energy, congratulations.
You have already broken through the upper limit of the knowledge of alchemists.
He could shout proudly.
“I don’t want to be human anymore!”
Under the situation where 70% of the precious materials were converted into dicinal spiritual energy, the second important function and purpose of pill refinent was to eliminate the poisonous spiritual energy that was accompanied by the dicinal spiritual energy.
After all, the saying that three drugs divided the poison was also very applicable here.
The more dicinal spiritual energy a precious material contained, the more ferocious the poisonous spiritual energy it contained. Wanting to completely remove it was an extrely difficult matter. Moreover, the higher the grade of the dicinal pill, the more difficult this step was.
This was why the Innate Jade Scale Physique was the strongest talent of alchemists.
Because even a ninth grade alchemist would not be able to completely remove the poisonous spiritual energy in the pill, but an alchemist with the Innate Jade Scale Body could!
Jiang Beiran could now easily convert 70% of the materials into dicinal spiritual energy. The previous two tis he had failed, he had tried to convert 80% of the materials into dicinal spiritual energy.
‘Could it be that I didn’t transform them perfectly? I don’t think so…’
If he could only convert 70% of the ingredients into Spiritual Qi during the refinent of a grade-eight elixir, the efficacy of the elixir would definitely be much worse. That was why Jiang Beiran had been pursuing perfection and had managed to convert 80% of the ingredients into Spiritual Qi. Furthermore, the process had gone smoothly without any major mistakes.
With that thought in mind, Jiang Beiran closed his eyes and focused his mind once again, thinking about the two problems that all alchemists had to face.
The first problem was the conversion of dicinal spiritual energy. Under what circumstances would the dicinal ingredients in the precious material be able to fully fuse with the spiritual energy and convert the most into dicinal spiritual energy?
The simplest and crudest thod was to use herbs that were older.
This was because the higher the age of the spiritual dicine, the more the spiritual energy would modify and improve its material during the growth process. As a result, the upper limit of the material’s bearing capacity for the spiritual energy would also beco higher, and the process of converting it into spiritual energy would also beco easier. There was only one flaw in this thod.
That was expensive!
The older the spirit herbs, the rarer they would be, and the rarer the spirit herbs, the more expensive they would be. For example, those that were thousands of years old or even tens of thousands of years old were priceless. They could not be bought even if they wanted to.
However, Jiang Beiran did not have to worry about this problem for the ti being, because the spiritual herbs he had picked up on Golden Cauldron Island were all extrely old. They were usually at least five hundred years old, and there were even a few that were a thousand years old.
Although it wasn’t enough to support him to squander, it was enough.
The second thod was the most classic thod of pill refinent, the “monarch, minister, assistant and envoy” thod.
The so-called ” monarch, minister, assistant, envoy ” represented the classification of spiritual dicines.
The monarch was a high-grade dicine, which was in charge of “nourishing life”. The minister was a dium-grade dicine, which was in charge of “nourishing nature”. The assistant was a low-grade dicine, which was in charge of “treating diseases”.
Then, how to use the “monarch, minister, assistant, and envoy” to solve the problem of converting spiritual energy was to use a variety of spiritual dicines in the sa alchemy process according to a certain ratio and the correct order to make them produce a wonderful reaction.
After several or even more than ten kinds of spirit herbs were mixed together in the right way, the age of the main spirit herb would continue to increase. In this way, the effect of converting spiritual qi would naturally be better..
