Chapter 445 Bai Yueling's Test
Lin Fan was pleasantly surprised.
For an alchemist, every recipe is extremely precious.
Moreover, the recipe of the Five Elements Spiritual Pill, which can improve the blood of a cultivator, is even more priceless.
Lin Fan asked himself, just this leak he picked up can save him hundreds of thousands of medium-grade spirit stones.
"I really made a profit this time. But why did Chen Qianru write the recipe of the Five Elements Spiritual Pill into her own alchemy experience? Is there something strange about this recipe?"
Lin Fan frowned slightly and studied the Five Elements Spiritual Pill recipe carefully.
The Five Elements Pill recipe uses the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit as the main material and requires the Five Elements Flame to refine.
Apart from this, the other alchemy skills and techniques are ordinary.
However, after Lin Fan looked at it for a while, he found that Chen Qianru, an alchemist in the foundation-building period, had tried to refine the Five Elements Spiritual Pill for many years, but she still couldn't get the point.
Even Bai Yueling, one of the five elders of the Five Elements Sect's Alchemy Pavilion, has only a 10% chance of refining the Five Elements Elixir.
Now, Lin Fan suddenly realized.
"Chen Qianru wrote the Five Elements Elixir recipe in her own experience. She probably believes that even if I am an alchemist, it will be difficult to refine the Five Elements Elixir, right?"
When Lin Fan thought of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
His alchemy skills have reached the level of alchemy master.
Naturally much higher than Chen Qianru.
Chen Qianru's inability to refine the Five Elements Elixir does not mean that Lin Fan cannot do it either.
After careful study for a while, Lin Fan found that the refining of the Five Elements Elixir is not difficult.
The difficulty lies in the harmony of the five elements.
It is precisely because of this that many alchemists cannot accurately control it, which leads to the low yield rate of refining the Five Elements Elixir.
But, for Lin Fan, what is the difficulty?
Even if the Five Elements Spirit Pill failed, he had no worries. After being strengthened by the mysterious copper bottle, the waste pill could be turned into a finished product.
"If I can get a Five Elements Spirit Fruit, I can definitely refine the Five Elements Spirit Pill. However, if I want to get the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, I'm afraid I have to start from Chen Qianru."
"It seems that I have to study the Five Elements Spirit Pill recipe for a while. How can I ensure that the Five Elements attributes are always balanced when refining the Five Elements Spirit Pill."
Lin Fan frowned slightly.
Carefully recalling things related to the Five Elements attributes.
"Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, the five elements are mutually restrained and mutually generated. These principles are understood by every alchemist. But how can we ensure that the Five Elements Spirit Pill is refined and the Five Elements attributes in the Five Elements Spirit Pill are balanced?"
Lin Fan thought of this, but did not continue to ponder. Instead, he picked up Chen Qianru's experience in alchemy and read it carefully again.
He repeatedly pondered Chen Qianru's failed alchemy experience and alchemy techniques.
Lin Fan suddenly realized it when the day dawned.
"When Chen Qianru and the others refined the Five Elements Spiritual Pill, they used the Five Star Spiritual Fire and used their divine thoughts to check whether the five attributes in the Five Elements Spiritual Pill were balanced. If the wood attribute was more, they would suppress it with the gold attribute flame. In this way, the flames of the other three attributes would be at a disadvantage."
"This led to the fact that no matter how hard they tried to reconcile yin and yang, they could not make the five elements in the Five Elements Spiritual Pill reach a stable balance."
"If there is a way to make the flames of the five elements mutually restrain and generate each other inside the pill, so that they do not pursue a stable balance but achieve a dynamic balance, can this Five Elements Spiritual Pill be refined?"
Thinking of this, Lin Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Just as he was about to take this opportunity to carefully consider the new idea of refining the pill that he had figured out, a bell suddenly rang from Chen Qianru's courtyard.
Yesterday, those outer disciples who were reprimanded by Chen Qianru entered Chen Qianru's courtyard respectfully, patiently waiting for Chen Qianru's instructions.
Seeing this, Lin Fan naturally did not dare to be negligent.
He quickly put away all the things and left the secret room directly. Like other outer disciples, he stood in the courtyard and waited for Chen Qianru to come out.
About a cup of tea later, Chen Qianru's voice finally sounded from the alchemy secret room.
"The rest of you continue yesterday's task, Lin Fan, come to my alchemy secret room."
Lin Fan knew that Chen Qianru was going to teach him the alchemy technique alone.
Lin Fan was reluctant to do this, but he had no choice.
He could only come to Chen Qianru's alchemy secret room without any expression.
Boom!
As soon as Lin Fan stepped into the alchemy secret room, a hot wave of fire hit him instantly.
Lin Fan felt it carefully and found that the golden flame aura was very strong in this heat wave. The other four flame auras were completely suppressed by the golden flame aura.
Without much guessing, Lin Fan also knew that Chen Qianru was probably refining the Five Elements Elixir at this moment.
"Hello, Uncle Chen." Lin Fan looked at Chen Qianru and said respectfully.
"Failed again. Is it really as Master said, that refining elixirs depends on luck?"
Chen Qianru frowned, and a trace of helplessness suddenly appeared between her eyebrows.
Although Lin Fan knew that Chen Qianru had failed to refine the Five Elements Elixir, he did not say much.
He stood quietly aside and did not disturb Chen Qianru.
But he secretly activated his clear and bright eyes and looked around secretly.
For a moment, Lin Fan did not know what he had discovered, and a trace of surprise flashed in the depths of his eyes. But soon, he looked normal again, as if nothing had happened.
Only after another meal, Chen Qianru's voice sounded from Lin Fan's ears.
"Have you read the alchemy books and alchemy tips I gave you yesterday?"
"Reporting to Uncle Chen, I've finished reading it."
"Any doubts?"
"Uncle Master, of course there are some doubts. For example, why can only one of the three types of slow fire used to refine elixirs be used at a time? Also, when refining the Five Elements elixir, why do you always need the attributes of the Five Elements? Can’t the flames of the five elements be harmonized to achieve a dynamic balance within the five elements elixir?”
Lin Fan explained his doubts in detail.
After Chen Qianru listened, she answered carefully.
Only when answering the question about refining the five elements elixir, she was slightly hesitant.
"I can't answer the question about refining the Five Elements elixir at the moment. Even the success rate of Master personally refining the Five Elements elixir is not too high. However, the idea of refining the elixir you just mentioned provides us with another idea. A method of refining the Five Elements elixir."
Although Chen Qianru's level was obviously higher than that of Lin Fangu, she did not have the slightest contempt for Lin Fan because of his lower level.
Especially after listening to the profound questions Lin Fan asked, he secretly glanced at Lin Fangu.
"Thank you, Master Chen, for your advice. Since even Master Chen can't answer this question, I won't force it." Lin Fan said calmly.
Chen Qianru looked at Lin Fan in surprise, and then asked curiously: "You are also an alchemist, why are you not interested at all in refining the Five Elements Pill?"
"Reporting to Uncle Master, although I used to be good at alchemy, things like refining the Five Elements Spiritual Pill are beyond the scope of my little alchemy master's ability to get involved."
Although what Lin Fan said was against his will, it was just right considering his status as an outer sect disciple of the ninth level of qi training at the moment.
Chen Qianru was silent for a moment and did not even mention anything about the Five Elements Spiritual Pill.
After carefully guiding Lin Fan in alchemy, he let Lin Fan leave.
However, just as Lin Fan left, a faint female figure appeared from Chen Qianru's alchemy chamber.
The woman is dressed in red, looking cool and noble.
Only when her eyes looked at Chen Qianru, there was a touch of gentleness.
"Qianru, is this the new outer disciple you are talking about? Although this person has a lot of experience in alchemy, we don't dare to reuse him rashly. This person's identity and origin still need to be carefully studied. After some investigation, if there is really nothing wrong with this person, he can participate in our refining of the Five Elements Spiritual Pill."
