Chapter 690: Devoted to Pill Refinement

Moreover, the new type of mixed medicine spiritual energy produced by the combination would have a better effect than the original single medicine spiritual energy.

However, this also tested the alchemist’s knowledge.

Which medicine could be a “monarch”? When this medicine became a “monarch”, which medicine should be used as a “minister” and which medicine should be used as an “assistant”.

At the same time, the distribution ratio of the three monarch medicines, minister medicines, and assistant medicines had to be exactly the same, and the order and timing of their distribution had to be accurate to the second.

If you can’t figure this out, then your harvest will only be a cauldron of useless pills.

To understand all of this, one had to have a vast amount of experience in alchemy and be familiar with the medicinal properties and characteristics of each precious material.

In order to pursue perfection, Jiang Beiran had naturally used the method of ” monarch, minister, assistant and envoy Although he did not have a vast amount of experience in alchemy, he knew the medicinal properties and characteristics of every precious material he needed to refine like the back of his hand.

‘Could it be that I’m inexperienced? This is a little possible

Jiang Beiran had been very confident in the alchemy method of ” monarch, minister, assistant and envoy “. However, he had ruined three furnaces of pills in a row. He had no choice but to reflect on himself.

“However, compared to my lack of experience… I feel that the Heavenly Dao is more likely to target me.”

There were too many variables involved when using the face technique of ” Monarch, Minister, Assistant, Envoy “. If one was unlucky and relied purely on brute force, it was naturally possible to fail.

‘But what can I do about luck?’

He could only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

However, this fate…

Jiang Beiran sighed. He could only hope that his luck points would increase a little more.

Other than converting spiritual energy, there was another problem that gave many alchemists a headache.

That was bearing.

Under what circumstances could the material of the spiritual pill withstand the increasing medicinal spiritual energy? It must be known that once the medicinal spiritual energy went berserk, the increasing repulsive force inside the furnace would directly cause the furnace to explode.

Jiang Beiran had been very worried about this at first, but now, with the help of the Octagonal Frozen Grass, this problem was easily solved.

There was no technical difficulty at all.

This was also why Jiang Beiran didn’t hide his superb alchemy skills when he thanked Shi Weiyi.

What he gave was a big treasure! A treasure that every alchemist dreamed of!

“Flu…”

Jiang Beiran slowly opened his eyes after letting out a long sigh. After some brainstorming, he had a rough idea of the reason why he had wasted three batches of pills in a row.

Since luck couldn’t be changed, or rather, it couldn’t be changed in a short period of time, he could only continue to improve his ” doing his best.”

‘Looks like I have to bring up the matter of finding a few high-grade alchemists to have a chat.’

For example, although Jiang Beiran could become Gao Lanwen’s master when it came to refining jade, that was because he had both superb jade refining skills and superb array formation skills.

As for jade refinement, there were many things that he could learn from Gao Lanwen.

Gao Lanwen was only a Level Eight Jade Master. Jiang Beiran believed that he would be able to learn more if he were to be replaced by a Level Nine Jade Master.

It was a pity that ninth-grade mystic artists were rare in the Six Nations. Their status was extraordinary, and they were not people he could meet whenever he wanted. Moreover, it was very likely that a series of follow-up reactions would be triggered after meeting them. These were all troublesome.

‘So annoying!’

Jiang Beiran grumbled inwardly and decided to take another path.

Since he couldn’t make any significant progress in alchemy for the time being, he could only make his tools more advanced.

Even though he had a top-notch pill refining vessel like the Golden Crow Cauldron, he still felt that he hadn’t forced out the full potential of the cauldron.

However, he didn’t know where to find the ‘instruction manual’ for the Golden Crow Cauldron, so he could only study the cauldron himself.

Jiang Beiran pressed his hands on the Golden Crow Cauldron, closed his eyes, and started to light the fire inside.

Unlike ordinary cauldrons that could only ignite mortal fire, the Golden Crow Cauldron could ignite pill fire.

Although the difference between Pill Fire and Mortal Fire was only one word, the effect was worlds apart.

Because the “pill fire” had an invisible “gold” attribute, it could restrain the “wood” attribute of the herb.

It could easily liquidize the Spiritual Herbs.

It was also because of this that Jiang Beiran felt that he had not fully utilized the characteristics of the Golden Crow Cauldron.

He felt that with the quality of the Golden Crow Cauldron, it would definitely be able to produce a higher quality “pill fire”, one that could not only liquify the spirit herbs, but also make it easier for it to absorb spiritual energy and turn it into medicinal spiritual energy.

However, it was impossible to improve the quality of his Core Fire in a single stroke. Jiang Beiran still needed to use the Golden Crow Cauldron a few more times before he could fully master it.

Other than improving the quality of his ” Pill Fire “, Jiang Beiran felt that he had not fully utilized the Golden Crow Cauldron’s ability to draw in Spiritual Qi.

Since it was ‘spirit infusion and conversion’.

If one wanted to convert spirit herbs into medicinal spiritual energy, one naturally had to first draw in spiritual energy from the outside.

The higher the grade of the pill, the more spiritual energy it required. The higher the grade of the cauldron, the more spiritual energy it could absorb.

The more spiritual energy he absorbed, the more critical it was.

If one were to compare the quantity of spiritual energy, an ordinary medicinal cauldron could only absorb and store five catties of spiritual energy at most. A slightly better quality medicinal cauldron could absorb and store twenty catties of spiritual energy, and a medicinal cauldron that could be called a high-grade medicinal cauldron by an alchemist could absorb and store fifty catties of spiritual energy..
