The First Saint of Dan Dao

Chapter 190: Perfect Tempering Technique

The purification time for each medicinal material should not exceed two quarters of an hour. If it takes too long, the medicinal effect will be lost.

Without purification, the elixir cannot take shape.

The conventional method of purification is to refine the medicinal materials one by one, and then place the purified medicinal materials in an insulating layer for use.

A mature alchemist would throw in a few herbs at a time to save time, but the quantity would never be too much.

Even he himself had only extracted fifteen medicinal herbs at the same time at most, and he had never tried twenty-six.

Does this kid intend to refine all the herbs at the same time, or just do it hastily?

The former is impossible, and the latter... based on Tang Yan's personality, it seems impossible as well.

Old Man Huo was confused and didn't know what Tang Yan was going to do.

Soon, Huo Lao's eyes widened!

Although twenty-six medicinal herbs were thrown in, Tang Yan did not panic. Instead, he stood calmly in front of the alchemy furnace, using his soul power and true energy to control the tempering of the medicinal herbs inside the furnace.

"This..." Old Huo rubbed his eyes and looked at Tang Yan in disbelief.

Is this guy really extracting? Is he pretending?

A familiar rustling sound came from the alchemy cauldron, constantly reminding Old Huo, who had been dealing with elixirs for hundreds of years, that what was going on in the alchemy cauldron was the process of quenching and extraction!

As time passed, Huo Lao felt that he was even more nervous than Tang Yan.

Two quarters of an hour finally passed. Tang Yan kept making hand seals to control the situation inside the alchemy furnace.

"Bang!" A slight sound was heard, and a pool of medicine residue was seen discharged from the alchemy furnace.

"Melt!" As Tang Yan shouted softly, the elixir in the furnace began to fuse step by step under Tang Yan's exquisite control.

With a move of his hands, the medicine residue that had just fallen on the ground was sucked in front of him by Old Huo.

After seeing this pile of medicinal residue, Huo Lao's heart was filled with shock.

He checked it with his hands uncertainly and couldn't help but gasp.

Even though he was already a fourth-level alchemist, he still often refined the Flowing Spirit Pill. He knew exactly how much medicine residue would be left after extraction.

The more medicinal residue there is, the more impurities are filtered out.

The less spiritual energy the medicinal residue contains, the higher the purity of the extracted medicinal materials.

Quietly comparing himself with Tang Yan, Huo Lao's heart was shaken again.

He couldn't match Tang Yan's speed in quenching and extraction, but he was three times faster than him in the first step.

Analyzing from Tang Yan's medicinal residue, the purity of the extraction is only higher than his.

This guy is only seventeen years old!

Huo Lao felt that his worldview was shattered!

Although there are some students in Qinglong Academy who have reached the level of third-rank alchemists, they are already quite old and their techniques are still immature.

No one can do it as smoothly as Tang Yan!

At this moment, Old Huo was somewhat convinced that Tang Yan was a third-level alchemist.

Elder Huo and Elder Zhen were very patient and there was no sign of impatience on their faces.

Two hours passed quickly, and a strong but not overpowering fragrance of elixir wafted slowly from the cauldron.

Old Huo was shocked, knowing that the refining had reached the end, the most critical step - making the pill.

The Supreme Alchemy Sutra in Tang Yan's body was running rapidly, constantly shaping the shape of the Liuling Pill.

Suddenly, Tang Yan slammed his hand on the alchemy cauldron, and three pills flew into the sky!

Tang Yan was quick to take out the porcelain bottle and put the pills away.

This originally crucial and complicated step turned out to be so smooth in Tang Yan's hands, giving people a sense of smoothness that came naturally.

"Mr. Huo, please take a look." Tang Yan handed over the porcelain bottle with a smile.

"Let me see one too." Master Zhen also joined in the fun.

Tang Yan had no objection and poured one pill out to Master Zhen.

Only then did Huo Lao come to his senses. He hurriedly took the porcelain bottle, gently pulled out the stopper and looked inside.

The pill has a shiny and round appearance, is fine and delicate, and has a golden hue all over.

Impeccable! Huo Lao gave Danxing a full score.

He put the porcelain mouthpiece to the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently. The fragrance of the elixir condensed and did not disperse, tightly surrounding the elixir. The refreshing fragrance of the elixir made Huo Lao feel that the elixir field in his body was active.

The quality of this pill, both in appearance and fragrance, is the same as the pill that Du Shu is auctioning today!

It seems that those pills really came from Tang Yan's hands!

Top quality! Huo Lao made a judgment in his mind.

"It looks good!" Although Master Zhen's knowledge of elixirs is not very high, he still has basic judgment ability.

"I was afraid you would have to wait too long. The refining was hasty and it is not perfect yet." Tang Yan said modestly.

Huo Lao looked at Tang Yan with a complicated expression, then sighed and said, "It is the pinnacle of the art to refine the Flowing Spirit Pill to this level."

Elder Zhen looked at Elder Huo in surprise. He had the impression that his old friend had always been arrogant, but today he spoke so highly of Tang Yan?

Huo Lao looked at Tang Yan with more and more fondness, and after carefully considering his words, he said, "Tang Yan, you are very accomplished in alchemy. Although you already have a master, you just said that your master came and went without a trace.

You can study with me for a period of time, and we won't be master and apprentice anymore!"

"I say, Lao Huo, are you trying to steal my girl right in front of me?" Lao Zhen immediately got angry.

Tang Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Huo, is the Fire Cloud Pill you showed me a few days ago still there?"

Hearing Tang Yan's words, Huo Lao's eyes lit up! When he was competing with Zhen Lao for students, he used Huoyun Pill as a condition to attract Tang Yan to study.

Could it be that this guy has figured it out and wants to learn alchemy from me?

"The Fire Cloud Pill is of great benefit to alchemists and is extremely difficult to refine. The last pill had some flaws. This Fire Cloud Pill was refined by me yesterday and it has been improved a lot." Old Huo flipped his hand and a porcelain bottle fell into his palm.

"If you learn alchemy from me in the future, your future achievements will be limitless!" said Old Huo with a smile.

Master Zhen stared at Master Huo with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire! Damn it, he actually dared to snatch my students, this old man is so evil!

Restraining his dissatisfaction, Mr. Zhen sighed softly.

Tang Yan took the porcelain bottle, uncorked it, sniffed it gently, and then put the cork back on. When he raised his head and was about to speak, Master Zhen patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Little guy, it's better for you to continue learning alchemy.

With your talent, you can definitely achieve greater success in the field of alchemy."

Tang Yan was a little dumbfounded. What? When did I have to learn alchemy from Master Huo?

Noticing that both of them were looking at the Fire Cloud Pill, Tang Yan finally realized. Did they think that he accepted the pill in order to learn alchemy from Master Huo?

“Old Huo, I don’t want to learn how to make pills, I just want to tell you that this pill still has some flaws.

The effect of Huoyun Pill is as strong as fire, blazing and burning, tempering the human body.

But the heat of this pill gives people a feeling that it is not bold enough, and its efficacy will be greatly reduced. "

Huo Lao's heart skipped a beat. What Tang Yan said was exactly the problem that had been bothering him recently.

Staring at Tang Yan in surprise, Huo Lao asked, "Do you know how to solve this problem?"

After asking Old Huo, he felt a little regretful. Although Tang Yan showed outstanding talent in alchemy, he was only a third-level alchemist after all. How could he understand fourth-level elixirs?
