Chapter 224 Xiaochunfeng's previous life
Although he had seen Fang Chen's fire control and purification improvement points a little, everyone had never expected that Fang Chen could successfully purify the medicinal materials in the white-level medicine cauldron. First of all, not to mention the difficulty of refining second-grade elixir medicinal materials, even the fire control accuracy that does not allow any mistakes will not be completed by ordinary alchemists!
The red flames blew in the cauldron, illuminating Fang Chen's face that had turned red. On his handsome face, sweat kept sliding down like raindrops. Obviously, although the former could complete the purification of medicinal materials, the medicinal spirit consumed in it had reached an extremely terrifying level.
"Out!" Just as the last medicinal herb turned into powder, Fang Chen's beautiful face finally moved slowly. He immediately shouted coldly and tightened it with a small jade bottle.
"Huh! It's finally done!" Seeing that all the medicinal materials were purified, Fang Chen immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he was about to withdraw the flames and rest for a while, the sudden indifferent voice of Mr. Ding made the former's face slightly distorted.
"The flame tacit understanding has begun to reach an excellent level, and now it is starting to merge purified medicine powder!"
Hearing this, Fang Chen's mouth twitched slightly twice, but then he gritted his teeth and used the medicine spirit again to adjust the flame.
"Fusing powders is an extremely difficult step, because each powder has its own special medicinal substances, and because of these required medicinal substances, they have different fire resistance. Therefore, when fused, you need to differentiate countless small flames to distribute and refine various medicinal materials in local distribution and refining, which has considerable requirements for the proficiency and accuracy of fire control!"
Looking at Fang Chen, who had already been exhausted by the man who had tried his best to purify before, and now he was already faintly exhausted, the slightly solemn voice of Old Ding suddenly rang in the former's ear: "So, this step is extremely important, and if you want to truly refine the finished elixir, you have to overcome this step of fusion, otherwise you will fail!"
"Fusion!" Looking at the white-level medicine spirit that was constantly boiling in front of him, Fang Chen gritted his teeth and instantly poured all the various colors of medicine powder from the jade bottle into it.
Last night, under the guidance of Mr. Ding, countless flame attempts and medicinal fusions were spent. Although it took a lot of energy, it was extremely effective for Fang Chen now. Moreover, the continuous refining of elixirs in the pharmacy day and night in the pharmacy for three years has not been successful, but it has given the former fire control techniques and perseverance that surpasses the same age.
The medicine powder kept emitting a little smoke in the cauldron. As the flame intensified, the already tiny powder particles were extremely narrow at this moment, and some tiny medicine powders that could not be supported even turned out to be charred. Obviously, judging from their appearance, the previous purification did not completely remove impurities!
"What should I do?" Looking at the sudden change, Fang Chen's forehead suddenly tense, and then he muttered to himself with sweat on his head.
"It seems that there has been a change!" Fang Chen's subtle movement was obviously to escape from the platform. Han Xuan's mature gaze slightly pursed his dry lips, and the former said lightly.
"Accident?" Hearing this, Fang Yan and Xuan Qian next to him were slightly stunned, and then looked at Han Xuan in shock. Obviously, they were not as conscious of the steps of refining medicine, but they still did not have the ability to perceive Han Xuan's perception and observation.
"Looking at his appearance, that kid should have completed the purification before, but perhaps because of his eagerness to achieve quick success and instant benefits, the previous purification did not reach the ideal state. Perhaps it would be a failure!" Han Xuan's tone was obviously disappointed. If Fang Chen really failed to refine this second-grade elixir, then it would prove in disguise that his previous guess was wrong. And if he wanted to not reach the height of 90%, then it would be difficult to refine the finished elixir. Even Han Xuan, who is a high-level pharmacist, was not sure.
As Han Xuan blurted out, Fang Yan's face suddenly turned pale. He immediately looked at Fang Chen in the hall and said worriedly: "Is it really going to fail?"
At this moment, Fang Yan was in a extreme mood. What he wanted to worry about was not that after the refining failed, Fang Chen would only get half of the industry of the fifteen pharmacies. What he really worried about was that Fang Chen could not directly inherit the position of patriarch after the failure, but also needed another family meeting to select the patriarch's heirs. If that was true, everything Fang Yan had done before would be wasted!
If everyone's hearts were suspended by Fang Chen's slight actions in the hall, then Fang Chen would be even more trembling at this moment. His originally red face turned pale due to this sudden change. His eyes were staring at the powder of the white-level medicine cauldron that was constantly seeping out of yellow impurities. A sensation of dizziness suddenly appeared in the former's mind, and the flames in the cauldron seemed to be splashed by water, and instantly decayed.
"Please keep your mind tight, don't you feel at ease, aren't you still there?" Just when Fang Chen's head was dizzy and he was exhausted, Mr. Ding's sudden harsh shout seemed like a blow to the head, which immediately woke up the dizzy head of the former.
After a moment, Fang Chen, who came to his senses, heard the nearly defeated consciousness, and suddenly became a cold sweat. After that, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his other hand, and said to Mr. Ding in fear: "Mr. Ding, what should I do now?"
"Now that's the matter, don't worry about anything else. Concentrate the flame fusion medicine powder. When it is fused, you will continue to refine impurities. Although this will not allow you to refine a truly high-level second-grade elixir, it is not impossible to successfully refine a pill containing impurities!" As Fang Chen asked, Old Ding's faint voice suddenly became slightly solemn.
"Yeah!" Fang Chen licked his dry lips and instantly, the flames that jumped like an elf suddenly rolled in the cauldron again.
"Add the juice of the luoling leaves!" As if seeing the medicine powder that was constantly differentiated from the white-level medicine cauldron, the heavy voice of the old man Ding suddenly rang again.
Hearing this, Fang Chen's arm trembled slightly, and he quickly poured the juice of the green spirit leaf into the cauldron. As the liquid merged into it, the various medicine powders that were originally mixed were instantly adhered. Then, all the medicine powders that were adhered gradually became thicker on the hot fire membrane, and the color also turned into lilac.
The thick liquid continued to shrink under the flames. At the same time, a faint smoke and a thick strange fragrance continued to spread to the hall as the flames jumped.
"The fusion is about to be completed, how could it be?" Smelling the fragrance that continued to emanate in the hall, Xuan Qian's slightly frowning face on the platform suddenly became a little shocked.
"Well, it looks like he is about to become a pill. As for why he was not disturbed by the impurities in it, I think it should be related to his medicine spirit!" Hearing Xuan Qian's astonished voice, Han Xuan next to him gently stroked his long white beard and said thoughtfully, "If I guessed well, he should have advanced medicine spirit in his body!"
Han Xuan's eyes were not sarcastic, and he could see clearly the clues at first glance.
"Advanced Medicine Spirit? How is that possible? When I was surveying and mapping in my pharmacy not long ago, Fang Chen still had only a first-level Xuan-level Medicine Spirit!" Xuan Qian pursed his lips slightly and immediately questioned.
"Sir for three days, you should look at him with admiration. Doesn't Xuanyuan even know this?" Without avoiding Xuan Qian's doubts, Han Xuan just shook his head slightly and said with a faint smile.
However, between the words of the two, a light shout suddenly sounded in the burning eyes of everyone in the hall, and the sound in it instantly changed the color of the people in the hall. Even the many older generations on the platform were caught off guard by the sudden light shout. Immediately when the sound fell, everyone looked at each other, but the old face was already covered with a deep shock!
"Second-grade elixir: Bone-eating pill, elixir..."
