I can calculate everything

Chapter 52: Be careful when sailing the ship of ten thousand years

The flames on the Nianqi Continent are divided into human fire, earth fire, and sky fire.

Human fire is the flame that comes from living beings. It is catalyzed by one's own thoughts, or condensed by the fire elements between heaven and earth, or condensed by refining things in heaven and earth. It becomes stronger as one's cultivation becomes stronger.

Of course, the human fire of this last method is the strongest and is most sought after by alchemists and weapon refiners, but it is too dangerous. Many alchemists and weapon refiners have been killed by backlash in the process of refining the things of heaven and earth, which makes many people discouraged.

But Xu Huan believed that since he had practiced the immortal art of the Five Qis Returning to the Origin, and with the successful precedents of countless predecessors in the Five Qi Temple and the guarantee of the Bagua Fairyland, refining the five elements and condensing the five elements true fire would be a piece of cake.

The earth fire and the sky fire are both natural fires between heaven and earth, but the latter is a flame that has been awakened and has become a spiritual and cultivated flame. It is born with super strong fire control ability and is extremely powerful.

……

"Okay, ancestor, stop showing off. If you don't start refining the elixir, I'll leave first." Xu Huan let out a light breath, slowly calming down his slightly turbulent emotions, and waved his hand.

Seeing this, Zhen Qiankun said no more and waved his right hand lightly. In an instant, the light purple flame split into two and flew towards the alchemy furnace.

The alchemy furnace is about one meter high and is red all over. There are no patterns on it and it is plain and unpretentious. It has four legs and two ears. There is a round fire hole on each ear, allowing Zhen Qiankun to control the two light purple flames and inject them into it.

"The first step in alchemy is to stimulate the fire, control the flame to enter the fire port, and activate the fire-stimulating formation engraved on the fire port, so that the flame can burn on its own for a long time without the need for further control." Zhen Qiankun paused slightly and explained briefly. Even though he knew Xu Huan knew the steps of alchemy, he still explained it like a teacher teaching a beginner.

"The second step is to add the herbs and purify them." As he spoke, Zhen Qiankun waved his right hand lightly, picked up one or two Broken Soul Roots placed beside him, and threw them into the furnace through the hole in the center of the lid. "At this time, you must carefully use your mind to sense the changes in the herbs and carefully control the temperature of the flame to burn them."

Through a transparent furnace wall in the middle of the furnace, Xu Huan and Lin Youwei saw very clearly that the broken soul root that looked like a dead vine was quickly burned off its skin under the wrapping of the light purple flame, and the impurities fell off and turned into a wisp of green smoke. After a while, only a small ball of purple-black liquid was left, probably only three or four drops.

Then Zhen Qiankun did not move the liquid out, but let it stay inside, not afraid that it would be evaporated by the flames, because this was a flame containing the attributes of wood and had a trace of life force, so the essence of the medicinal materials would not be destroyed by the violent flames.

"I have refined the medicine many times before and have rich experience in refining the medicine. I have a stable control over the medicinal properties of the herbs, so I practiced a little faster. If this is your first time, you can take it slowly, increase the flame temperature little by little, and purify the herbs little by little." Zhen Qiankun explained lightly, and at the same time waved his right hand lightly again, but he put all the remaining herbs into the alchemy furnace and purified them at the same time.

Looking at the medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace being burned to remove impurities in the swirling flames and gradually turning into various essence liquids, Xu Huan's mouth twitched slightly. This cheap ancestor is really good at showing off. As far as he knows, the previous third-level alchemist did not dare to purify multiple medicinal materials at the same time. This person is really skilled and bold, not afraid that all the medicinal materials will be damaged by a slight mistake.

"Brother Xu Huan~" A girl's soft and gentle voice came from beside him. At the same time, he felt a soft and tender little hand gently holding his palm. Xu Huan immediately turned his head slightly, chuckled, and signaled that he was fine.

"Brother Xu Huan~The ancestor is really good at acrobatics." Lin Youwei tilted her head and smiled faintly.

"Well, indeed, it was pretty good." Upon hearing this, Xu Huan was slightly stunned, then he immediately reacted and responded with a chuckle.

Although their words were quiet, they couldn't escape the ears of Zhen Qiankun, who was not far away, and his invisible pretense was instantly broken. "Hey, you kid, I'm working so hard to demonstrate this to you, can't you just watch and observe?" Zhen Qiankun said indifferently with a bit of annoyance.

"Ancestor, it's such a simple thing. I can learn it just by watching it once." Xu Huan smiled faintly. His gentle and mellow voice seemed to carry a hint of arrogance, but in fact it was full of confidence.

"You, you, okay, if you dare to say it, I dare to believe it." Hearing this, Zhen Qiankun couldn't help but turn his eyes slightly and stared at Xu Huan's indifferent smile. After staring for a while, he found that there was no strange color in Xu Huan's eyes, and he was obviously very confident in himself.

Seeing this, Xu Huan smiled without saying anything, but called out the Bagua Fairy Mirror in his mind.

"Xianjing, tell me, if I were to refine the elixir, would I be able to achieve the same level of Zhen Qiankun easily?"

Yes, Master, even better.

Hearing the Bagua Fairy Mirror's affirmative answer without hesitation or stagnation, Xu Huan's smile suddenly became even more intense.

After a while, Zhen Qiankun had finished extracting all the medicinal materials for the first batch.

"Okay, next is the last and most crucial step. Put in the Mind Crystal and fuse it with the medicinal liquid to finally make a pill." After a slight pause, Zhen Qiankun picked up a golden first-level Mind Crystal from the air, signaling Xu Huan and Lin Youwei to watch his next performance carefully.

Unexpectedly, Xu Huan and Lin Youwei retreated a dozen feet away, paused slightly, as if they still felt unsafe, and then moved lightly, picked up Huahua who was still sleeping on the table beside them, and finally squatted behind the stone medicine cabinet three feet away, with only half of their heads exposed.

"Hey, you two, do you really not believe in my alchemy skills? Are you so afraid of the furnace exploding?" Upon seeing this, Zhen Qiankun smiled speechlessly.

"It's okay, ancestor, please continue. I'm watching." Xu Huan moved his mouth and even shrank back.

"Yes~" Lin Youwei also shrank her body and agreed in a soft voice.

The gold-attributed Mind Crystal, although not the most violent fire-attributed Mind Crystal, is the most lethal when the furnace explodes. It's not that the two of them don't believe in Zhen Qiankun's alchemy, but no one can give a guarantee on such a thing. If the furnace really explodes, the two of them who are watching closely may be injured if not killed.

Don’t take risks if you can avoid them, cherish your life and stay away from the alchemy furnace.

Shaking his head slightly, Zhen Qiankun no longer paid attention to the two cautious people. In his heart, he still agreed with their actions. It is better to be safe than sorry.

As soon as the thought came to him, Zhen Qiankun threw the Nian Jing into the alchemy furnace. Visibly, the Nian Jing turned into a small ball of golden liquid, just like the previous medicinal materials, but it made people feel that it still contained violent energy.
