Chapter 156 Stop Fire

For Sun Hao to refine medicine, other beginners have great advantages. This advantage is reflected in many aspects. Sun Hao has practiced two kinds of accumulated skills, and has two kinds of true energy, which is also one of the advantages. [Compare]

Both kinds of true energy can be used by Sun Hao to make fire by drilling wood. The wood pill and the flames work together, and Sun Hao's true energy replenishment speed can almost guarantee Sun Hao's needs for alchemy.

For other beginners who practice medicine once, they will be exhausted and need a long time to recover, but Sun Hao practiced once, at most he can recall and summarize, and he can practice again immediately.

Naturally, the number of times of this exercise is many times that of other beginners.

Sun Hao practiced the method of "refining medicine" hard, achieved a small success in one month, reached the description of basic alchemy, completed thirty-six small cycles, and could try to stop fire and condense alchemy.

At this time, different from ordinary alchemy apprentices, Sun Hao did not start to go down after reaching the standard of every step like ordinary apprentices. Sun Hao, who did not pay attention to the foundation, started from the medicine preparation, and every step was reaching the standard After that, I practiced repeatedly many times until I reached my limit before starting the next step of practice.

The same is true for "refining medicine". After reaching the standard, Sun Hao continued to practice uninterruptedly. After another month, he felt that it was difficult to improve again, and he just started to enter the next link of alchemy, stopping fire and congealing alchemy.

Stopping the fire and congealing the alchemy are two major steps in alchemy, but whether to stop the fire first and then condense the alchemy, or to condense the alchemy first and then stop the fire, has been difficult to determine since ancient times. Different monks have different opinions.

Modern monks are more inclined to the inter-school. The so-called inter-schools are different panacea. Congealing pills have different requirements before or after stopping the fire, and they are treated differently according to the different panacea.

Qi Dao Dan, the alchemy sequence recorded in the alchemy recipe is exactly to stop the fire first and then condense the alchemy.

Stopping the fire means that the great elixir has been completed, and if it can't be done, it is also necessary to keep the fire in the sky.

The Alchemy Sutra says "knowing that it will stop is not perilous", which means that the fire should be stopped at the right time. To those who use fire, it is to refine and transform gas ears. When all the essence is used up to transform Qi, if there is no essence to refine, then the fire will have nothing to do.

However, those who stop fire must not stop fire, but they must not breathe fire. If at this time, if you continue to drum up and go around the sky again, it means that the elixir has matured, and if you add cooking and refining, there will be no one that will not hurt the elixir. The ancient immortal said, "Returning the alchemy is not yet refined, it is urgent to refine it, and you must stop it after refining it." Gai Jing has exhausted his energy, and the Yang Pass has been closed, so he should stop immediately and wait for the secret. However, stopping the fire is not the absence of fire, the only thing is not to use real fire to force it to run around the sky.

Stopping the fire sometimes, if it is not at the right time, stop it first, and the leakage will be exhausted; Neither forward nor backward, at the right time, that is, the sun shines three times, which is the scene of stopping the fire. From the second appearance of the sun to the third appearance of the sun, it is the right time. If it reaches four times, Dan will be old.

When the fire comes to an end, it should be calm and still, the real fire seems to exist but it doesn't, and the air seems to be guarded but not guarded. The ancient fairy cloud "seeing the success of the alchemy in a fixed place" is a perfect statement. Because without warming and nourishing, Baodan will not grow.

Stopping fire does not mean not using fire.

The key to stopping fire is still the eight words "stop fire sometimes, stop it when you stop it".

Sun Hao, who has "Thousands of Thoughts Cutting Off the Gods and Imperial Objects **", and Sun Hao who already has divine consciousness, practicing this one step to stop the fire is also a matter of course, just like sealing a furnace.

Without thinking too much, Sun Hao stopped the fire and warmed up, and hit the alchemy furnace with decisive gestures, and began to practice condensing alchemy.

Congealing pills is the last and crucial step in alchemy. Once the medicine is refined, it will be preliminarily formed in the pill furnace. However, this kind of pill has not yet fully formed, and monks need to use their true energy to assist special techniques to make the pills condense. He was completely solidified into a pill.

Congealing pills, ancient monks also known as knotting pills.

Because this is the last step of alchemy, many alchemists keep the method of congealing alchemy secret, and the method of congealing alchemy is considered a bit mysterious in the alchemy world.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "there is a way to condense alchemy, and it is not taught to disciples". It is also true that the art of condensing alchemy is the bottom-of-the-box technique and method of an alchemist, and it is not taught to non-personal disciples.

Of course, there are also those casual cultivators who, although they don't have the method of congealing alchemy, can congeal alchemy naturally after stopping the fire. However, the quality of elixirs that congeal naturally is often just inferior.

It just so happens that Yukunlong is Dongfang Sheng's direct disciple.

Sun Hao obtained three methods of condensing pills from Yukunlong's storage bag.

These three techniques, Sun Hao had practiced many times before alchemy, of course, he didn't know the actual effect.

The three methods of congealing pills handed down by Dongfang Sheng

One is called "fishing for the moon from the sea", and fishing for the moon from the sea is impossible for ordinary people. "Zhengdao Song" has a saying, "It is not difficult to see the shape in the mirror, but to catch the moon in the water?" However, what Dongfang Sheng passed down is a downward method of congealing pills. Pick it up from the bottom of the elixir furnace, and during this salvage process, use true energy to polish the elixir to condense it into a elixir.

The second is "things change, stars move hands", the scene changes, the stars shift, and the treasure pill comes out.

The third is "exploring the bag to get the treasure hand", this technique means that the alchemy furnace is like a bag, and entering the alchemy furnace to take the treasured pill is like searching a bag to get something. Once the technique is out, the treasured pill is in hand.

The three methods all require Sun Hao to stimulate the true energy in the state of stopping the fire, slap on the non-stop parts of the alchemy furnace, and penetrate different amounts of true energy into the alchemy furnace.

Although Sun Hao has practiced the three methods, in actual alchemy, it is easier to know than to do, and it is difficult to achieve the desired effect if the techniques are taken away.

This is another alchemy skill that must be practiced repeatedly.

Without him, only skilled.

Repeated practice.

Compared with other monks, because of the sufficient supply of qi and the sufficient reserves of medicinal materials, it is enough to support Sun Hao's repeated practice regardless of consumption.

Two months later, Sun Hao yelled "Hidden fishing hands", a series of dazzling hands hit the pill furnace, and he shouted "open", the top cover of the pill furnace opened in response, and immediately, A scent of medicine appeared in Sun Hao's alchemy room.

It was Sun Hao who finally practiced his first potion of elixir, Qi Dao Pill.

The appearance of this batch of Qi Gui Pill is not very good.

A furnace of Qi-guiding pills is theoretically three pills, but Sun Hao only produced two pills, and the other one was smelted, and the two Qi-guiding pills produced were not full. It's inferior.

However, looking at the two qi guide pills in hand, Sun Hao still showed a sincere smile on his face. I can also make alchemy, and, as I expected, my speed of improvement in alchemy is far faster than that of ordinary alchemists. As long as I work hard, it is not impossible to become a second-level alchemist within two years.

It took less than half a year from Sun Hao's alchemy to the release of the first Qi-guiding pill. This progress has exceeded Sun Hao's own expectations. Originally, Sun Hao's plan was to become a first-level alchemist in one year, and then spend a year to become a second-level alchemist. He did not expect that the first goal could be achieved ahead of schedule.

Although the Qi-guiding pill that Sun Hao is currently refining is only a half-spiritual pill, the principle of refining is the same. After refining the Qi-guiding pill, Sun Hao doesn't think that other first-level panacea will stop him for a long time.

After the first batch of Qi-guiding pills, Sun Hao took a short rest, carefully recalled and summarized his alchemy process, and then started his second refining process, and it has been out of control ever since.

In just five days, Sun Hao's refining of Qi Dao Pills has been able to produce three pills per furnace, all of which are plump, and the best of the low-grade.

There are still many materials for Qi Dao Dan, so Sun Hao continued to refine it.

Another five days later, the Daoqi Dando refined by Sun Hao was produced. Other monks are new to alchemy. Except for Zongmen monks, few monks have the resources to repeatedly practice a kind of panacea refining. They often practice one panacea and then learn the refining of other panaceas.

Qi Dao Pill is a semi-panacea pill, and the materials are easy to collect. In addition, the sales of Qi Dao Pills are good, Xiaowan has enough raw materials for Sun Hao, Sun Hao doesn't care about it, and continues to refine for a month, until Sun Hao smells the medicinal fragrance of Dao Qi Pills and wants to vomit. At this time, Sun Hao's refining Qi Dao Pill is mainly high-grade, and occasionally there will be some high-grade products, and basically there will be no low-grade ones.

So far, the refining of Sun Hao Daoqi Pill has come to an end, and he has moved on to practice the refining of other first-level spirit pills.

In the process of sorting out the "Jiangniu Jing", Sun Hao discovered many pills that were useful during the Qi refining period. He once compiled a book to pay Zongmen. There is Xiaozhu Jidan.

However, the second kind of panacea that Sun Hao refined is not the Xiaojiu Pill. First of all, this Xiaoji Pill is among the first-level panacea, it is the top-notch panacea, and it is difficult to refine. , the success rate is not high; the second reason is that the Cyanwood Sect has increased the purchase of Xiaozhuji Dan medicinal materials in the square market near the sect gate. Can't stand Sun Hao's waste.

The second panacea that Sun Hao chose to refine is a first-level panacea, especially the common panacea "Hui Qi Pill".

"Huiqi Pill" is a panacea to supplement the depletion of a monk's true energy. The spirit grass needed for the panacea is also very cheap, and the amount Xiaowan bought is enough for Sun Hao to practice.

With the foundation of refining Qi Dao Pill, and the repeated practice of each step of alchemy, the refining method of Adding Qi Pill is quite mature. In just two days, Sun Hao successfully refined his first batch of Hui Qi Pill. Moreover, Sun Hao refined the first Grade Huiqi Pill in just five days, regardless of the loss of materials.

The output of Pin Hui Qi Dan marked that Sun Hao, who could only refine one kind of panacea, had officially become a first-class alchemist.

The mainland has two very simple standards for the certification of alchemists. As long as an alchemist meets one of these two standards, he will automatically become an alchemist of the corresponding level.

These two criteria are first, the same level of elixir, who can refine two or less grades of elixir, can be called an alchemist of this level; division.

Sun Hao is now able to refine the first-grade Huiqi Pill, which marks that Sun Hao has become a first-class alchemist.

What Sun Hao didn't know was that a first-level alchemist who met two kinds of low-grade spirit pills, Sun Hao, a first-level alchemist with one-grade spirit pills, had a higher gold content. <
