I studied abroad in modern times

Chapter 414 Craft transformation, take the lead

Elder Xiong looked at the transparent glass cup in Zheng Fa's hand, and the ice crystals on the wall of the cup were shining, making him unable to look directly.

But Zheng Fa's expression cannot be read carefully.

"Is this water method alchemy?"

Zhao Jingfan leaned over his head and looked at the glass cup curiously.

Zheng Fa looked at the solution in the cup and his tone was cautious, "I don't know much about water method alchemy, I'm just purifying it."

The previous experiment process was also good.

It’s better to have the final drug properties test.

All of them point to one thing the difficulty of refining elixirs - the purity of elixirs is not enough.

If you want to purify, there are only a few chemical methods. Looking back at the previous experimental records, the first thing Zheng Fa thought of was extraction.

According to current observations, Zheng Fa has a conjecture:

Frost leaves will form a solvent under certain conditions.

This solvent can dissolve the active ingredients in the Five Elements Orchid and separate it from other impurities.

   Use some secret methods to change the environmental parameters, and then let the solvent regenerate crystallization or powder, thereby obtaining intermediate products with medicinal effects.

Now in this beaker, there is a frost leaf solution that dissolves the Five Elements Orchid powder.

He is now observing what conditions the Five Elements Orchid powder dissolves the most thoroughly.

Zhao Jingfan looked back at Elder Xiong, as if he wanted to find an accurate answer. Elder Xiong felt disgusted with him and had no eyes - if he knew, could he be so ugly?

He took two steps, stared at the cold frost leaf solution in the glass cup, smelled it with his nose, as if he was a little uncertain, but he nodded slightly: "It's a bit like, I've had a conversation with the alchemist who is good at water method alchemy..."

"Although I have never seen his secret technique, I have seen similar spiritual waters."

This is possible. For example, some solutions can be preserved for a long time, and can even be used as a raw material and sold to other alchemists.

“Whether it is achieved in detail or not, it still depends on the pill.”

Elder Xiong said while biting his thumb, with a hint of eye in his expression - obviously, he wanted to try it himself.

Zheng Fa has also learned about Elder Xiong's character these days.

This man was probably quite obsessed with alchemy and worked in Jiushan Realm for several months. Although he had the method of transforming the gods, the seriousness and persistence he showed also saw Zheng Fa.

Now he felt that this thing was related to the legendary water method alchemy, which was just like the alcoholic feeling itchy when he saw the peerless wine.

Zheng Fa thought for a while before speaking:

"Elder Xiong, I am relieved to your skills, but our experiments have our own plans."

"I am afraid…"

"What do you say, what do I do!"

Elder Xiong patted his chest and said that he would be obedient.

"It's not to listen to me..."

“…”

“I listen to them.”

Zheng Fa pointed to the several foundation-building disciples in the house, among which four Elder Xiong looked very familiar - they were four foundation-building disciples who could not get along with him at the time.

Elder Xiong couldn't help but remain silent.

Zheng Fa did not deliberately humiliate or find a place for his disciples, but he had specialized in his profession. He did not understand alchemy. Although he proposed a big framework, the specific details of the operation were still required to be the professional disciples.

If you want to guide Elder Xiong to refine alchemy, you will naturally have them.

"I…"

Zheng Fa saw Elder Xiong hesitating and knew that whether it was for the face of the Nascent Soul Alchemist or the little unhappiness before, the great elder of the Qingmu Sect could not overcome the hurdle in his heart.

He no longer waited for Elder Xiong's reply, but nodded to the disciples.

In the alchemy furnace, the spiritual fire rose again, and Zheng Fa added the frost leaf solution that dissolved the Five Elements Orchid into the alchemy cauldron.

Another round of experiments began.

Elder Xiong watched from the side, silently staring at every move of the disciples. This time, he seemed to have really seen the faces of these disciples clearly - including the four disciples who were actually very familiar to them.

The people in the alchemy room have different thoughts, but most of the attention is still focused on the alchemy furnace.

The spirit fire is extinguished and the alchemy furnace cools down.

Through the transparent glass on the abdomen of the elixir, everyone can see several elixirs.

This elixir looks different from those before.

The previous elixirs were mostly quite turbid blue and black.

Now the elixir in this elixir furnace is very blue, and even has a little crystal clear water.

Indoor, there was a scent of pills.

The fragrance is light and warm, like a secluded orchid in the valley, blooming silently by the lake.

There is a chance!

Even though he has not been tested by Mrs. Xuanhua, everyone has inexplicably felt the same way in their hearts!

Elder Xiong even closed his eyes, took a deep breath of the fragrance in the room, and shouted intoxicatedly, "Best grade!"

Zhao Jingfan said in surprise: "Is this the elixir a top-grade? We also practiced the waste elixir two days ago!"

Elder Xiong's face froze, his face was not intoxicated, as if he had been stabbed from a dream and woke up from pain...

This Zhao Jingfan spoke like a sharp blade...

Then wasn’t he refined the useless pill?

Zheng Fa looked at the elixir in the alchemy furnace, and was not proud of Elder Xiong's top-grade certification. Instead, he took out a jade bottle, waved his hand, put the elixirs into the bottle, and asked his disciples to send them to Mrs. Xuanhua for inspection.

People in the room were waiting for the test results, and Zheng Fa was also looking through the experimental records just now.

A head stretched out from behind his shoulders, staring at the records in his hands, as if he was curious...

Zhao Jingfan covered his forehead behind him.

Have you been disdainful of these records before?

Zheng Fa turned to look at Elder Xiong. Elder Xiong looked a little embarrassed, but he still spoke:

"Why are you...so fast?"

Although Mrs. Xuanhua's test results have not yet been released, as a master of alchemy, Elder Xiong has also made his own judgment, and now he has put his composure and asked Zheng Fa for advice.

“Don’t be these.”

Zheng Fa's attitude towards him has not changed much. To be honest, he felt that 70% or 80% of the contribution of this spiritual pill was indeed on this elder Xiong.

Without the detailed elixir recipes and hundreds of experimental data prepared by the other party at the beginning, where did Zheng Fa and the others get their ideas and data?

What's more, there is also some luck this time.

Not to mention anything else, water method alchemy may not be that simple.

The solution can not only be extracted, distilled and purified. In terms of chemistry without spiritual energy, there are many reactions in liquids...

In Zheng Fa's view, alchemy is the characteristic of this world. If you want to develop, you must absorb traditional alchemy talents.

Their biggest advantage now is summary and transformation.

He handed the experimental record in his hand to Elder Xiong. Elder Xiong was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect Zheng Fa to be so generous, but he didn't say anything, but just looked down.

The more he looked, the higher his brows frowned, as if he couldn't figure it out.

“Raw materials, environment…”

He murmured to himself, as if thinking about these words, and suddenly asked after a long time:

"What about the secret method of alchemy?"

"Where is the location of the secret method of alchemy?"

"Where does this... place the alchemy that I have learned before?"

There was even a little fear on his face.

Zheng Fa looked at Elder Xiong, and Elder Xiong also looked back at him, as if he wanted to ask for an answer.

“There is no secret method.”

"…ah?"

"The alchemy, there may be techniques that require confidentiality, but there should not be secret methods that do not know the principles."

Elder Xiong stood in front of Zheng Fa and looked at the leader of the Hundred Immortals Alliance.

These days, Zheng Fa has always been very generous and even has a good temper.

But at this moment, this sentence made Elder Xiong see the gloriousness in Zheng Fa's heart clearly—

He did not fight with others, but wanted to use a brand new and fearful thought to overturn the entire alchemy system.

The traditional Xuanwei Alchemy actually has many techniques that cannot be explained clearly or even explained clearly.

What they care about is the first step to use spells...

What magic should be used in the second step...

Spiritual medicine plus secret techniques are the two most important parts of the alchemy.

But Zheng Fa wants different things—

He is more concerned about the environment, and the experimental report talks about parameters.

What kind of reaction will occur in a certain environment for one or several spiritual medicines?

  The previous alchemy focuses on knowing the truth.

What Zheng Fa wants to pursue is to know why.

Secret method is just a means to control the environment.

He could even imagine that as long as the environment is measured more accurately, Zheng Fa could analyze any kind of spiritual elixir.

There is no secret method, but secret method can be created.

With secret techniques, you can also improve secret techniques based on experimental data.

Is this set feasible...

Elder Xiong looked out the door.

For the first time in this life, he expected that his nose was not so flexible.

 …

"President! Mrs. Xuanhua said that this time the elixir is extremely powerful!" The disciple who informed him shouted before he even entered the door, as if he was reporting good news, "The project team of the "Golden Pill Project" has begun to verify the Yin and Five Elements part of the "Nine Mountains Golden Pill Method"!"

It’s done!

Although everyone has a premonition, there is still joy in the alchemy room at this time.

Except Elder Xiong.

He looked at the laughter and joy of the disciples of Jiushan, and then at the experimental report in Zheng Fa's hand, and his shoulders gradually collapsed.

In his heart, there is also the alchemy that he has studied and studied for a lifetime.

Although it was just the beginning, he had already seen that Zheng Fa sharpened his knife and seemed to be trying to break the alchemy that he had learned for thousands of years, cutting off the future of these traditional alchemists.

“Elder Bear…”

"Um."

Listening to Zheng Fa's voice, Elder Xiong replied in a daze.

"Can you help us?"

"Ah?" Elder Xiong's eyes moved slightly, and then he saw clearly that Zheng Fa was standing in front of him and smiling, pointing at the alchemy furnace:

"In my opinion, there should be some improvements in this elixir..."

"Elder Xiong, you are a Yuanying alchemist after all, and your cultivation skills are above my disciples of Jiushan."

“…With you taking action, my elixir will probably be of higher quality.”

Elder Xiong blinked his eyes and naturally understood what Zheng Fa meant:

Don’t panic, you are still valuable, do you want to learn?

He felt depressed and suddenly explained:

So I'm a knife?

That's all right!

 …

Zheng Fa and his friends were still experimenting on the island, and all the civil affairs in the Jiushan Realm were pressing on Senior Sister Zhang.

The most important thing now is the establishment of a technical alliance.

Or, the establishment of major guilds.

The most important of them are the alchemist, talisman master, weapon refiner and formation master guild.

These are the four most important and most prosperous skills among the hundreds of immortal cultivation techniques.

On University Island, the preparatory meetings of the four major guilds were held one by one.

Needless to mention the advantages of the Jiushan Sect in the Fu Dao, let alone the stinky fish and rotten shrimps of the Hundred Immortal Alliance, even if it is placed in the six sects, it can be said that each has its own advantages.

The Fu Masters Association can be said to be a disciple of Jiushan who talks loudly and other geniuses applaud.

As for the formation master... this thing is too high-end, there are not many Hundred Immortal Alliances, and none of them have come yet.

Even if you talk about guilds, you can only say that you will humiliate yourself, so there is nothing at all.

Because the weapon refiner did not participate in the Chongxuan Sect, it was actually Mrs. Xuanhua who struggled to support it. There were also some sects in the Foundation Building Pills who said they were strong or not, but there was no thorn in it. The charter and other things were passed smoothly.

Only the last alchemist alliance has a big boss - Aoki Sect.

Before the meeting was planned, more than a dozen heads of the alchemist sects suddenly flocked to the guest room where Aoki Sect was located.

The leader of the Qingmu Sect looked at the crowded crowd in front of him in surprise and asked, "You guys are..."

These leaders first took out a sound insulation device to isolate the outside investigation.

The corner of the mouth of the leader Song twitched, and he felt that this group of people had no knowledge. What could be hidden from Zheng Fa in the Jiushan Realm?

But he also guessed what these people were going to do.

"President Song, what do you think of this alchemy guild?"

Someone whispered.

"The meeting has not been held yet. I don't know what the specific details are. What do you think?"

"How can you not know? The rules of the Talisman Master Guild and the Artifact Refiner Guild are exactly the same!"

Someone said anxiously.

Master Song looked at him, then looked at the others, and realized in his heart: "Do you have any opinions?"

"Of course there is a view..."

Someone said hesitantly.

"The Jiushan Sect is now the leader of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, so we agree, but there are some things... he shouldn't have done this."

"What shouldn't be done like this?"

"The first thing I said is to write textbooks. Isn't this... I want to use our secret method to train disciples for him in Jiushan Sect?"

“…It makes some sense.”

"And! Why is the patent right only fifty years... in fifty years, will our secret methods be made public?"

President Song nodded again.

"What other journals and unified procurement..."

"It's not me..."

"If this continues, it will take less than a hundred years. The alchemist inheritance of our sect is probably all from the Jiushan Sect's surname Zheng!"

After hearing this, Master Song nodded frequently.

I seem to agree very much.

The fact is indeed the case. The guild doesn’t seem to be anything, but the heads of the sects such as the Hundred Immortal Alliance are not fools…

In the past, they controlled the inheritance of alchemists and controlled the quantity, price and quality of elixirs on the market.

Now there is an extra guild.

After the corporations have their own teaching materials, their own training system, and even their own customers and medicinal materials.

Are there any need for these sects to exist?

In other words, the guild will definitely become the largest alchemist sect directly under the Jiushan Sect.

President Song had long thought of this...

He agreed at the beginning mainly because the situation of Aoki Sect is too poor, and the interests of the guild are actually very large, which is Aoki Sect.

But these sects are not like this.

They can see the essence of the guild and realize that they can't get any benefits, so they are naturally reluctant.

Only then did I find myself.

“What you mean is…”

"Aoki Sect is the leader of the alchemy in the alliance. If he accepts such rules, how will the sect leader face the ancestors and ancestors in the future?"

“…”

"President Song, I don't want to rebel against Jiushan Sect, but... I have to give us a way out, right?"

“What way to live?”

"We can join the Guild, and even unify procurement and price. We all follow the instructions of the leader."

"Only this matter of patent rights and textbooks and journals... we really can't accept it."

After hearing this, Master Song's face did not change and said:

"I understand what you mean."

"To be honest, I, Aoki Sect, also have some ideas about the various rules of this guild..."

"I will propose it at the preparatory meeting at that time."

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed and bowed respectfully to Master Song. Someone praised him, "Master Song, have backbone!"

For a moment, Master Song felt that he had hoped for it and became the leader of the alchemist sect.

Seeing them walking out the door happily.

Mr. Song's eyes were a little cold.

It is certain that these people dare not betray the Hundred Immortal Alliance - those who dare to betray should not come to the Jiushan Realm to pay homage, just like Chongxuan Sect, and even heard that they are still trying to win over some small sects, as if they are raising anti-flags.

But if they are honest, they are not willing to give up, otherwise they are like those sects in the Fu Master Guild. Although they must have opinions in their hearts, no one dares to jump out and say anything.

Come find yourself...

Naturally, one is to think about the law and not blame the public.

Second, I thought that the sky fell and the tall man Aoki Sect was holding on.

What they said does make sense.

 …

The next day, on University Island, Senior Sister Zhang looked at the heads of the major alchemist sects in front of her.

This group of people was a little strange, and it seemed to be conveying some shameful news.

The biggest gain of this technical alliance has come to this day is the Alchemist Guild.

After all, the weapon refiner did not have Chongxuan Sect, and most of them relied on Mrs. Xuanhua.

Fu Shi Jiushan Sect is too strong.

Only the alchemist was too weak before, and the Qingmu Sect and others were strong enough. The alchemist alliance can be said to have supplemented one of the major shortcomings of the Jiushan Sect.

She glanced at Master Song and saw that this person was full of worries and seemed to be immersed in her own thoughts.

Why did Junior Brother Zheng establish a guild, or what expectations do he have for the guild? I only told her -

On the one hand, the guild is of course to develop various cultivation techniques, cooperate and create profits.

On the other hand... it is Junior Brother Zheng who is integrating the Hundred Immortal Alliance.

Not just technology, but people.

According to Junior Brother Zheng, the alchemist who joins the guild will have to learn skills from the guild, take jobs from the guild, and receive rewards from the guild.

From then on, he became a professional alchemist - Junior Brother Zheng called it the division of labor.

Over time, alchemists do not need to occupy any spiritual veins or cultivate any medicine garden. They only need to study the alchemy and use better technology to obtain more benefits.

At that time, on the one hand, these alchemists' skills will be improved faster.

On the other hand... even these people are no longer inseparable from the Hundred Immortal Alliance system.

The Alchemist Association looks like a sect, but it is difficult to exist independently and relies heavily on the resources provided by the Hundred Immortal Alliance system and customers.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel curious - Junior Brother Zheng, I don't know where to learn these things.

 …

Seeing that everyone was coming, Senior Sister Zhang took out a copy of the "Alchemy Guild Rules (Draft and distributed it, saying, "This is the guild rule formulated by my Jiushan Sect."

"If you have any ideas, you can also raise them."

"Our Jiushan Sect will consider it as appropriate."

A group of leaders looked through the draft and saw that what they said above was similar to what they guessed, and their expressions were different, but their eyes couldn't help but look at the leader Song sitting in front of them.

President Song also flipped through the draft, as if he was reading it in detail.

Senior Sister Zhang asked again: "Do you have no objection?"

Everyone stared at the back of Master Song.

Master Song gently put down the draft and coughed lightly, "I, Qingmu Sect, have some opinions."

Here comes!

The leader is going to speak out for us!

Mr. Song stood up, and his straight back seemed to have a strong bone hidden inside.

"Oh?" Senior Sister Zhang seemed a little surprised, "Tell me what you said?"

"I think there is one less rule in this..."

Less?

Isn’t it too much?

A group of people looked at me behind their backs, and I looked at you for no reason. I felt something was wrong, but I couldn't figure it out.

"I heard from my Grand Elder of Qingmu Sect that after cooperating with Jiushan Sect, he had a completely different view on the alchemy... He has transformed many previous secret techniques, and now the alchemy skills have increased significantly!"

“…”

"My Qingmu Sect hopes to take out all the secret techniques and cooperate with Jiushan Sect to transform them! To the Alchemist Alliance, to the Hundred Immortals Alliance, to contribute to the Alchemist Alliance!"

A group of heads opened their mouths and looked at the head Song with a sonorous tone.

Brother...why would you like to raise your opinion on your knees?
