Chapter 17 Alchemy

Lin Mu gently opened the brass furnace cover. 【 】

The orange-yellow brass furnace is as smooth as a wall, with a round belly like a drum, and hot air is emitting from it.

Lin Mu put a portion of material into the brass furnace, and closed the furnace lid tightly without revealing a single gap.Then hold the golden round handle in your hand and input spiritual power into it.

The dormant flame in the stone platform instantly ignited, rising more than a foot high, Lin Mu firmly controlled the strength of the flame.

After a while, there was a buzzing sound coming from the furnace.

Lin Mu hurriedly searched with his spiritual sense.

In the brass furnace, the spirit grass was roasted by the flame, and turned into several balls of juice in the furnace. These balls of juice slowly converged at the bottom of the brass furnace. These juices were the essence of the spirit grass.

Lin Mu slightly reduced the output of spiritual power, and the flame immediately became weaker.

Lin Mu carefully controlled the flame to keep it at this intensity, slowly roasting it.

Under the baking of the flame, the juice at the bottom of the brass furnace gradually became thicker, and the color also changed from mixed colors at the beginning to light yellow.

At this time, Lin Mu began to increase the output of spiritual power, hoping to refine the essence of these spiritual grasses from liquid to solid, and condense them into pills.

To Lin Mu's helplessness, the process was extremely long.

An hour passed, and the essence of the spirit grass in the brass furnace hardly changed much, it just changed from the original thick to thicker.

Most of the spiritual power in Lin Mu's body was consumed, and it seemed that he could no longer hold on.

Lin Mu clenched his teeth and struggled to hold on.Holding the golden round handle tightly in his hand, he poured in his spiritual power like a desperate frenzy.

Beads of sweat rolled on his forehead, half of which was caused by fatigue, and half of which was caused by being too close to the stove and baking.Beads of sweat fell on the stone platform and immediately turned into a puff of white smoke.

Lin Mu didn't dare to relax at all, he hoped to survive this period of time until the elixir was released.

But he obviously didn't expect that there was no spiritual power in his body, and the flames inside the stone platform began to gradually weaken.

Lin Mu was anxious, the spiritual power in his body had been gradually exhausted, and it seemed impossible to continue.

He didn't want to fail at all, this material was two low-grade spirit stones, which was worth a month's hard work.

But the situation was out of Lin Mu's control, the flames at the bottom of the furnace suddenly stagnated, and Lin Mu's spiritual power could no longer be sustained and was completely exhausted.

Chi!

A pungent burnt smell wafted from the brass furnace.

Lin Mu was exhausted and sat down on the ground.

The first alchemy failed!

More than an hour of hard work was put into the water and turned into nothing.

Lin Mu was panting heavily. The output of spiritual power that lasted for more than an hour just now exhausted his spiritual power and he was exhausted.

After resting for a while, Lin Mu began to meditate and practice, slowly recovering his spiritual power.

After more than an hour, Lin Mu opened his eyes, the eyes became more determined, and the decadence disappeared.

The spiritual power in his body had fully recovered, but Lin Mu didn't immediately proceed to the second refinement.

He wanted to find out why he had failed.

Now, he finally understood how optimistic his original estimate was.Alchemy is not an easy task at all, not everyone can do it.He tests people's endurance, care, and cultivation.

Among these three things, apart from his cultivation, he possessed all of endurance and care.

But cultivation is equally important!

His failure stemmed from the lack of spiritual power in his body!

However, this is back to the original point.The reason why Lin Mu made alchemy was to improve his cultivation, but the reason why he failed in alchemy was precisely because his cultivation was too low.

Now there is a dilemma.

After thinking for a while, Lin Mu decided to continue refining a few times to see if he could figure out some ways.

Open the furnace lid and dump out the black waste at the bottom of the furnace.Once the refining fails, the material will be completely scrapped, and there is no room for maneuver.

Put another material into the brass furnace and cover the furnace lid.

Lin Mu held the golden round handle in his hand, poured spiritual power into it, and started refining again.

This time, Lin Mu persisted for a full hour and a half, but still fell short. At the last moment, there was only a bang, and everything in the furnace was burned.

The second time also failed.

A trace of cruelty flashed in Lin Mu's eyes.

After the spiritual power recovered, he resolutely started refining again.

After pouring out the residue, Lin Mu took out another batch of materials, put them into the brass furnace, and activated his spiritual power to slowly refine them.It's just that his blindness and recklessness didn't work.This time, it was no different from the previous two times.

Third failure!

Lin Mu became ruthless and desperate, took out another material and started refining.

Failed for the fourth time!

Fifth failure!

Sixth failure!

Seventh failure!

Seven times in a row, none of them succeeded.The reason for each failure is exactly the same, it is always at the last moment, the spiritual power is insufficient, the flame at the bottom of the furnace is too weak, and the last step is to condense into a pill, and the success falls short.

Lin Mu was like a clay sculpture, sitting in the alchemy room blankly, without saying a word, his eyes were dim.

A string of failures hit him hard.

For a long time, he has put more than half of his hopes on alchemy, hoping that he can quickly improve his cultivation base by this.But after trying it, Lin Mufang knew that there were many difficulties.

Everything is not as easy as imagined!

No one can succeed casually!

Even if you work hard, you may fail again and again in return.

After a moment of depression, Lin Mu's eyes began to slowly regain their brilliance.

He needs to cheer up!

Because reality does not allow him to escape, he cannot sit still.

After the spiritual power in his body recovered, Lin Mu began to charge for the eighth time.

This time was no different from the previous seven times.Lin Mu carefully maintained the output of spiritual power and controlled the changes in the strength of the flame.An hour ago, everything was normal, and nothing unusual happened in the brass furnace.

An hour and a half later, the spiritual power in Lin Mu's body gradually became unsustainable, and he felt strenuous again.

He persisted hard, his face flushed for a while.

After a while, his complexion began to turn red and pale, and he couldn't hold on any longer.

He sent out the last strand of spiritual power in his body, and he could only let it fend for itself.

However, the imagined scenario did not appear immediately.

The elixir was not scrapped immediately, because the flame at the bottom of the furnace was still burning. It was not until the flame weakened that there was another burning smell from the furnace.

Lin Mu wasn't depressed this time, he looked surprised, as if he had gained something.

He quietly recalled that last moment, in order to keep the flame burning, he poured out all his spiritual energy, and as a result, the flame was really obedient and did what he wanted.

He knew that the flame was thoughtless, so there must be a reason for the last blow.

All along, Lin Mu has been controlling the strength of the flame all the time. At the last moment, the flame is no longer under his control, but he can still do what he wants.He felt that there might be a breakthrough here.

control?Not control?Lin Mu muttered to himself, thinking hard.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

It's not controlling...it's guiding.Yes, it is guidance.

These are two completely different concepts.Control is to keep everything in mind, while guidance is much easier, you only need to change the strength of the flame at some critical moments.

This fire in the lungs of the earth comes from the ground and has an endless source. He doesn't need to control it all the time. He only needs to guide it at the right time and let it burn by itself.

After thinking this through, Lin Mu was excited for a while.

After resting for a while, the spiritual power in his body recovered slightly, and Lin Mu began to verify what he thought in his heart.

Holding the golden round handle, Lin Mu carefully injected spiritual power into it.This time, he didn't control the flame, but just guided it a little when some changes were needed.

To his excitement, this method is completely feasible!

In this way, the spiritual power in his body should last until the end of alchemy.

Lin Mu was so excited that he meditated on the spot and began to recover his spiritual power.

Time passed little by little.

Two hours later, all the spiritual power in Lin Mu's body recovered, and he pulled himself together and plunged into it again!

This time, Lin Mu was careful, keeping his mind on the brass furnace, and always paying attention to the changes of the elixir inside.Guidance is not control after all, and the reaction is slower than control. He has to notice the changes in the pill furnace in advance so that he can make the best use of the situation and predict the future.

For Lin Mu, although it was a bit difficult, he could barely maintain it.

As time went by, the changes in the brass furnace became more and more drastic.

An hour and a half later, Lin Mu was pleasantly surprised to find that there was still a lot of spiritual power left in his body.

Lin Mu didn't dare to be careless, and still kept the flame burning carefully.

But from his slightly joyful eyes, it can be seen that there is great hope for this alchemy!
