Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 297 Watch well and study hard

"The one who will teach you how to make pills later is a second-level alchemist."

The two walked in the corridor of the basement.

From the first underground floor to the third underground floor, there are alchemy rooms. Of course, due to the limited number of alchemists, there are still many empty rooms even on the first underground floor.

Yang Chun introduced as he walked, saying that the walls on both sides had very good sound insulation, so there was no need to worry about talking disturbing the alchemists in the room.

"Alchemists are divided into levels one to ten, just like Force Warriors. Levels one to three correspond to the three grades of first-grade elixirs, levels four to six correspond to second-grade elixirs, and levels seven to ten correspond to third-grade elixirs, but with an additional top grade."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but ask curiously: "Only the third-grade elixir has the top quality? There are no first- and second-grade ones?"

Yang Chun paused, turned around and looked at Jiang Cheng.

"Yes, there are, including the first-grade nourishing spirit pill, which is also of top quality. Even if the effect of the top-grade nourishing spirit pill cannot catch up with the second-grade primary tranquilizing spirit pill, the difference is not much.

But for someone who can refine high-level nourishing spirit pills, it is too difficult to take it a step further and refine top-level tranquilizing spirit pills. If he cannot control it well, he will lose everything.

Why not learn how to refine a second-grade tranquilizing pill? There is more room for improvement, and there are pill recipes. Since you can learn a better one, why not?"

"Too."

Jiang Cheng nodded.

But my heart moved.

Perhaps I could try to refine a top-grade nourishing elixir.

According to Yang Chun, its effect is similar to that of the primary tranquilizer pill.

Yang Chun continued with the previous topic.

"That second-level alchemist can make six or seven primary nourishing spirit pills with one portion of medicinal materials. If he uses 1.5 portions, he can make four or five intermediate nourishing spirit pills in one furnace. With his level, it is enough for him to teach you."

"If there are more medicinal materials, will the quality also improve?"

"Yes, with 1.5 portions of medicinal materials, if your skills are good enough, you can refine a furnace of ten intermediate nourishing spirit pills. If you have two portions, you can refine a furnace of advanced nourishing spirit pills. But this is all I know."

Yang Chun smiled bitterly.

"For more, wait until you meet the Level 2 Alchemist and ask him."

Jiang Cheng nodded.

Soon, the two came to a door marked with the number 16.

Yang Chun knocked on the door.

Someone inside opened the door.

He is a young man, about twenty years old.

Jiang Cheng was now wearing a younger human skin mask. He was not afraid of being exposed and took a look inside through the door.

In addition to the young man who opened the door, there were two other people in the house, a man and a woman.

In addition, there was a middle-aged man with messy hair, wearing a white coat and a stern face. He should be the second-level alchemist.

In front of him, there was an alchemy furnace about two or three meters high, and next to it were various colorful electronic instruments that dazzled the onlookers.

"Old Shen, please take care of the new guy."

Yang Chun smiled.

"No problem, Director Yang."

Shen Ming immediately showed a flattering smile on his face and agreed without saying a word.

Yang Chun nodded at Jiang Cheng, and after the latter walked in, he smiled at the other people and closed the door.

"You came at the perfect time. I was just planning to refine some elixirs. Watch carefully and learn from them."

Shen Ming frowned.

At the same time, the other three people also looked at Jiang Cheng.

The woman among them glanced at Jiang Cheng and then looked away. She had no interest in people with ordinary looks.

Another man had a similar reaction.

The man who opened the door for Jiang Cheng smiled at him, showing his kindness. Jiang Cheng also smiled at him.

Just then, Shen Ming's voice rang out.

"The herbs we need for alchemy are divided into three types: main herbs, auxiliary herbs, and medicinal guides. Alchemy is made by adding herbs with sufficient medicinal strength."

"Each herb has different medicinal properties. Therefore, if the quality and quantity of the herbs used are different, the quality of the pills produced will be different, and of course the time required will also be different."

Shen Ming explained while operating.

From the most basic explanation of medicinal materials to their preparation, there are actually machines to assist. All you have to do is put the medicinal materials into their corresponding positions. But Shen Ming said that these are the basic skills of alchemy. Now there are machines to assist, but what if one day there are no machines?

Judging from the frowning brows of the two people next to him, this shouldn't be the first time he has said this.

Jiang Cheng thought to himself, this man is indeed old-fashioned, but he is also a responsible person, otherwise he would not have been specially sent by Yang Chun to teach the newcomers how to make pills.

Next comes the alchemy process.

Through mental power, he observed the changes inside the alchemy furnace and controlled the temperature.

In fact, there are also various indicators on the instruments next to the alchemy furnace.

However, Shen Ming also said that these indicators are a bit lagging. With their help, one can refine intermediate and lower quality pills, but it is almost impossible to refine high-level or even top-level ones.

Jiang Cheng listened carefully, especially the operation of the instruments.

An hour later, a furnace of pills was finally refined.

Along with a fragrance, six primary nourishing spirit pills appeared before his eyes.

The medicinal liquid in other places turned into residue, emitting an indescribable smell.

"If you guys can achieve this level within a month, you will have met the requirements." Shen Ming glanced at a few people and finally his eyes fell on Jiang Cheng.

The latter nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.

I thought to myself that refining the elixir is indeed not easy.

Let’s not talk about the complicated steps for now.

The mental energy consumption alone is huge.

I just used my mental power to look at the alchemy furnace for an hour, concentrating completely. Coupled with the high temperature inside the alchemy furnace, my mental power was consumed by nearly one third.

For a first-level spiritualist, at most, he can refine six or seven batches of primary spiritual nourishing pills a day.

Thinking of this, he asked, "Brother Shen, after we become first-level alchemists, how many primary nourishing spirit pills do we need to refine every day to complete the task?"

"You're thinking far ahead."

Shen Ming said: "For a first-level spiritualist, it is enough to refine forty primary spiritual nourishing pills a day."

Hearing this, the three people nearby all looked embarrassed.

Jiang Cheng also felt that this requirement was not low.

If we make six furnaces a day, with five primary nourishing spirit pills in each furnace, there will only be thirty pills, which is still ten pills short of the daily target.

Either you improve your skills and ensure that each furnace produces more than six finished pills, or you can only spend more time and open two more furnaces to increase the number.

The working hours increased suddenly, and after returning home, my mental energy was exhausted.

If he reaches the second level of spiritual master, the index will probably double again...

Jiang Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was really a plan that was so detailed.

"Okay, I've already demonstrated it once. The three of you take turns to do it, including the new guy. After they've finished, you can try it too."

"it is good."

Jiangcheng couldn't ask for it.

Because after he watched the alchemy process, the skill of the Nourishing Spirit Pill had been unlocked on the panel.

It’s just that the experience points don’t increase, you have to gain them through practical operation.
