Chapter 313: Refining Method

Chapter 313: Refining Method In Shen Xiang's understanding, the higher the level of the pill, the more difficult it is to refine, and it takes many attempts to succeed. But now Su Meiyao said that a high-level pill that has never been refined can also have a 50% success rate.

Shen Xiang was familiar with refining the Yuanshen Pill and the Foundation Establishment Pill, but when he tried to refine the Hundred Beasts Pill, he did not even have a 50% success rate the first time. This was difficult for him to understand.

"Liu Meng'er collects medicinal materials for the alchemist to refine, and she is also betting on the success rate of the fifth level. After all, it is an earth-level pill. The medicinal materials are more scarce than the foundation-building pill, and they grow slowly. If the pill is refined in the most primitive way, it will take tens of thousands of years just to collect the medicinal materials, and one hundred thousand people cannot produce a pill sect." Su Meiyao said again.

Shen Xiang nodded. He had been a little confused as to how those high-level alchemists could get so far. It was unrealistic to pile up the herbs, especially the herbs for earth-level and sky-level pills. They were not easy to find just by looking for them.

"This technique is very sensitive and requires a high level of spiritual awareness. When you use this technique, you will enter a very wonderful state, and then you will simulate the process of refining pills in your mind. This alchemy technique is called 'refining method' and it is a must for high-level alchemists. Generally, you start learning this method when you are refining low-grade earth-level pills. If you want to master it, you must at least be able to refine middle-grade earth-level pills."

It sounds simple, but Shen Xiang realized that it was very difficult. This "refining method" was to simulate in his mind what would happen next while refining the pill, and then make adjustments in advance.

"You use this method to refine the Five Elements True Essence Pill. There is still some time. I will teach you how to simulate it. First of all, you have to be familiar with the characteristics of the medicinal materials, and this depends on your feeling! Your feeling when refining the pill is much more sensitive than that of other alchemists. I envy you, so I believe you can do it now. In addition, you have practiced the divine way, and your spiritual consciousness has reached the level of performing refining methods." Su Meiyao's voice became serious, like a stern master, teaching a powerful skill.

Shen Xiang also listened carefully.

"I will now tell you the detailed process of my use of the refining method. It's good that you pay close attention..." Then, Su Meiyao quickly recounted what happened. Time was very tight now, but she had confidence in Shen Xiang and believed that Shen Xiang would be able to master it. As long as Shen Xiang could take this step, he would have the potential to become the Alchemy King.

Su Meiyao had seen many alchemists with high talent in alchemy, but there was not a single one who could accompany her to the end. All of them were stuck at the bottleneck, which was the so-called alchemy method. She was the only one who fully mastered it back then, allowing her to successfully refine some high-level pills many times.

As Shen Xiang listened, he marveled at the complexity of it. At the same time, he was also very excited because there was a challenge in front of him, a challenge that would allow him to break through the bottleneck of the alchemist ahead of time.

"That's all. Those are my experiences. This is the first time I share them with others! You figure it out on your own. You have a fire soul, so you are more familiar with your own flames. This is also your advantage. In addition, you practice the divine way, so you are very confident that you can succeed." Su Meiyao felt that this was an opportunity, because Shen Xiang wanted to win the first place in this competition, and he didn't have a pill furnace, so his situation was very bad, but people often break through their limits in this situation.

This is why many people, when they encounter bottlenecks, will take risks, fight with some powerful spirit beasts, and then break through in the battle. Miracles often happen when people fall into adversity.

What Shen Xiang did before is an example!

The competition had not started yet, but Shen Xiang was already simulating the refining of the True Essence Pill in his mind. He closed his eyes and followed the breathing method that Su Meiyao taught him, allowing himself to enter a state of oblivion. At this time, he only felt that he was in a space surrounded by white. He sat cross-legged there, releasing the "Illusion Magic Furnace", and then began to put in the medicinal materials...

With a "bang", Shen Xiang suddenly woke up with sweat on his forehead. It seemed like he had just had a dream. He dreamed that he was refining an elixir, but something went wrong while refining the elixir, causing the furnace to explode.

"No, you were completely immersed in your consciousness just now. You need to let your consciousness calculate the process of alchemy while you are awake! When you use it later, you have to calculate while refining the pill, and the calculation speed must be faster than the actual alchemy. If you encounter problems during the refining process and the furnace explodes, you have to adjust it immediately in reality, and the refining must start immediately from the time you make the adjustments." Su Meiyao said.

Shen Xiang sighed slightly, and said: "I understand, practice is equivalent to encountering the situation that will happen in the future! If I am fighting, I see that I will be stabbed to death by the opponent's sword soon, I know how the opponent will attack, so I can avoid it and prepare in advance to block that sword."

"That's right, that's how the drill works. It allows you to see the future changes in your alchemy furnace in advance. Once something happens, you have to make adjustments immediately." Su Meiyao nodded.

Shen Xiang did not close his eyes this time, and practiced again. He could speed up the practice because it was a world in his consciousness and he could do whatever he wanted. In just a few blinks of an eye, the magic furnace appeared in Shen Xiang's mind. All the medicinal materials had been processed and thrown into the furnace, and the alchemy began.

"The speed can be faster, but you have to pay attention to the details. After the flame burns the herbs, what changes will occur to the herbs? How will the flame be affected by the spiritual energy released by the herbs? And so on. In short, you must not miss any details of the changes in the furnace. As long as there is a slight mistake, it will be completely different from reality." Su Meiyao said.

Shen Xiang now understood why this "refining method" could allow high-level alchemists to have a high success rate when refining unfamiliar high-level pills. If he could master this method, it would be equivalent to being able to foresee the future situation of the alchemy furnace, so he could make adjustments in time to avoid mistakes.

This method is very powerful, but it requires a lot of spiritual awareness and sense. Shen Xiang is now a little overwhelmed and very tired. This is mental exhaustion.

"Everything is ready, let's start now! When the sun rises tomorrow, the competition will end." said Mrs. Li.

It was already evening. Shen Xiang didn't expect that there would be so much time that it would last until tomorrow morning. This surprised both him and Su Meiyao.

"The time is too short, no one can complete it because they are all using those broken alchemy furnaces. Danxiang Taoyuan must know this! After all, these alchemists have to refine three of their most skilled and most expensive Xuan-level lower-grade pills. Not to mention using these broken furnaces, even a good furnace would take a long time." Bai Youyou said.

Many people in the stadium left when they saw how long the game lasted. They thought the result would be okay when they woke up tomorrow morning.
