Chapter 127 The method of water refining
To be honest, after hearing about Ailian's experience, Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of hatred for the enemy. His experiences with Ailian were similar. They were tortured by cruel people in a dark place. They were supported by the idea of revenge. Unlike him, Ailian was a beautiful woman, the humiliation she suffered was probably even more cruel and difficult to describe. Even if she could not refine the Heaven-Benefiting Pill, Yang was also sympathetic after hearing her experience and would find a way to take her away from the demon cave of "Tears of the Witch".
However, for the sake of caution, Yang asked her how a magic master would refine elixirs? Ailian explained that she was also forced by the situation. Her magic crystal was sealed and could no longer use magic. She had to find another way and consider using other spells. But this also encountered the shackles of the innate physique of the demon race. The demon race was not a member of the Nine Realms plane. They were different from other races on the continent. The fatal place on their bodies was not on the head or chest, but on the magic crystal hidden in their bodies.
The magic crystal is regarded as a magic core on the continent, but it is different from the internal crystals of other monsters. Even if the demon clan is beheaded and heartbroken, as long as the magic crystal is not destroyed, it will be taken back to the Demon Temple and put it in the demon liquid pool composed of the demonic energy in the demon world to slowly recover. It takes a few years to reincarnate and reborn. But it is precisely because of this physique that it is much more difficult for people in the demon clan to practice other spells than other races. The power of magic is often greater than that of the same-level spells because of the existence of the magic net, so no one will generally switch to other spells.
However, Ailian came up with a solution. There were also cases in history where the demon clan was not talented and specialized in practicing other magic and became a master. However, without exception, they were all mixed-blood demons. Ailian was not a pure-blood demon. She had half of the bloodline of the Hell Flame Demon, and had a high affinity for fire-type elements. Even if she did not practice magic, she would have the same chance to practice other magic. Fortunately, her teacher read a lot of books and traveled around the world. She had seen many Qimen martial arts, and helped her come up with an idea to bypass the magic crystal and change the Taoist method, because every stage of the Taoist method can transform all the muscles, bones and bloodlines, which is the same as Yang's idea of using the Butian Pill to transform bloodlines.
But Ailian's teacher was driven out of the Demon Temple and was separated from her. Although there were many magical ways to transform bloodlines, Ailian was controlled by the environment and could only practice the alchemy technique and transform herself with medicine. Therefore, taking advantage of the opportunity to pick up customers in "The Tears of the Witch", he deliberately released the news that he liked to read medical books and pill recipes, and collected many medical books from both sides, hoping to find a way to transform his bloodlines. However, he encountered a new problem. Just looking at the alchemy recipes and pills cannot be done, and he must operate on the spot to master the alchemy experience. The prince Wachowski is not a fool. If he discovers Ailian's intentions, he will definitely kill her hope in the cradle as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Ailian discovered the wonderful use of "Fantasy Country". This game that others seemed to be just for stimulating enjoyment gave Ailian a chance. Not only did she create an exclusive space inside, she also quietly opened the helmet terminal that entered the "Fantasy Space" to figure out the structure. Then she pretended to have a love for the new game, started from the clients and employees around her, collected the components bit by bit through them, and then assembled them into a pillow-shaped appearance. Every night when she went to bed, she entered the "Fantasy Country" most of the time, pretending to have multiple identities, and trying to refine alchemy in her secret space.
Her teacher once traveled to the East Continent, where she met several great masters in the alchemy and learned some basic alchemy skills. Ailian had received training in this area since she was a child. At that time, she was just a hobby of a little girl. Now she wanted to use it to save her life, so she naturally devoted all her energy. She was talented and was once a top magic student. She communicated frequently between major spells, and her alchemy progress improved rapidly.
When the disaster occurred, her family was destroyed. After being imprisoned, her body was cruelly tortured. When she was sent to the "Witch's Tears", she was so angry that she was almost gone. She had not long lived. It was relying on the knowledge of alchemy to treat herself, turned on the furnace and refining medicine, and slowly recuperating. She has returned to normal now, and she has used this to cover up her purpose of alchemy. Later, she took the initiative to help the sisters in the same hospital to treat the disease and prescribe medicine. The person who monitored her did not find any inappropriateness, so she did not go into it. After a while, her reputation for being able to refine the alchemy to treat the disease spread around her.
Yang could have guessed what happened later. "The Witch's Tears" was under the nose of Duke Kasharkhan. If he had nothing to do with Prince Wachowski, no one believed him. He naturally had the responsibility to monitor Ailian. He naturally knew about Ailian's ability to refine alchemy and cure diseases. Ailian read medical books and had experience and insights as a senior magician. Compared to ordinary pharmacists, the duke was convinced after seeing Ailian's treatment methods several times, and often asked her about the difficult and complicated diseases he encountered.
His beloved daughter's soul was injured by the necromancer. It was Ai Lian who referred to a prescription in a secret book of Oriental Alchemy and prescribed him a method of using the Thunderbird Heart and Liver as medicine as medicine. Sure enough, the medicine was cured. While thanking her, the Duke relaxed his surveillance on her and occasionally took her to the Duke's Mansion to visit. Yang and the others exchanged elixir for information, so they were taken to the Duke's mansion by the Duke to ask Ai Lian for advice.
On the surface, the pills made by Ailian are just ordinary medical drugs, but in fact, she has practiced various advanced alchemy pills thousands of times in the "Fantasy Kingdom". Every time she is entrusted by someone to refine the alchemy, she will deduct some of the materials provided by the other party on the grounds of failure to practice and be familiar with the medicinal properties. Anyway, no matter how good the alchemist is, he cannot succeed every time he practices. It is understandable that he fails occasionally, and he can confuse the monitor, thinking that she has high eyes and low skills, has the advantages of medicine theory, and is very poor in actual alchemy level, so relax her vigilance.
The few elixirs she has refined to improve her physical fitness in the past two years have improved her body to a stronger than ordinary soldiers, and she has also practiced some self-defense martial arts, but other attack spells are still unavailable and are still far from the requirement of escaping. At this time, Yang's arrival undoubtedly gave her great hope. Therefore, in exchange, after she asked Yang to help her escape from the fire pit, she also told Yang a big secret about her alchemy, that is, she mastered a method of water refining pills that are on the verge of losing the Eastern Taoist Sect. She can refine a few elixirs into and increase the alchemy rate by 10%. If she refined the Heaven-Buying Pill, she also wanted to divide it into one portion to transform her bloodline.
This was the first time Yang heard that he could refine a few more magical medicine like Bu Tian Dan. After being shocked, he asked Ailian that was not a joke. Is she sure? Ailian's firm guarantee is related to her future wealth and life. Of course, she would not talk nonsense about this. This alchemy method does not use traditional alchemy cauldron fire refining, but is rarely used to refine alchemy with water.
Generally speaking, it is believed that alchemy requires the use of alchemy cauldron to add medicinal materials, and then use Taoist fire to remove coarseness and preserve essence according to certain procedures to absorb the essence of heaven and earth to refine it. Among them, medicinal materials, alchemy cauldrons, and fire conditions are indispensable. In particular, alchemy fire often requires special heaven and earth fire. The Eastern Alchemy Taoist Sect pays great attention to this.
Cute Lian said that in fact, it is not necessary to use fire to refine elixirs. If it falls into the ears of the orthodox alchemy sect, it must be thought that she is talking nonsense and deviant. However, Yang, who has accepted the theory of earth science, felt it made sense. In particular, Ailian said that this is exactly how she can use her own elixirs by surveillance and using the deducted medicinal materials to make her own elixirs. Otherwise, the fire will be smoky and foggy, so how can she hide it from others? Only by moistening and boiling with spiritual water can it not attract attention.
The method of water refining Yang also mentioned in Zhao Renheng's record that it is a very partial alchemy method, but after accepting Yang, he would rather regard it as a chemical reaction experiment. The oriental alchemy program includes roughly building a house, setting up an alchemy, installing a furnace, setting up a cauldron, grinding, sublimation and other links. Building a house can be considered as a laboratory for building a modern chemical experiment; there are many conditions when refining alchemy. Setting up a cauldron and installing a furnace is to place chemical tools, and the most important thing is to place a cauldron. Distillation is to transfer chemical raw materials into a container for reaction stage. As for grinding and sublimation, they are just preparations before and after alchemy. These can be replaced by more advanced chemical instruments. Yang also plans to record and study this process. Therefore, he is very interested in the art of water refining and proposed that he must observe it.
The two were happy in the "Fantasy Kingdom". The more they talked, the more they felt speculative. Yang then realized that Ailian was a rare woman who could keep up with his way of thinking. Because he accepted the concept of earth science, many times, even when talking to the alchemist, he felt that he had conflicts with the traditional magic theory of the Nine Realms. Therefore, how to seek common ground while reserving differences was his goal.
Ailian is because her magic power is blocked and she tries every means to open up another way to save herself. So she will try her own ideas as long as they are beneficial to her. Compared to Yang's unique thinking, her theoretical foundation is undoubtedly richer. After all, she was a genius who was likely to join the Temple of Demon. The Temple of Demon is equivalent to the highest national academic research institution on earth. She has the teachings of good teachers and is considered to be an authentic professional. Many questions about magic raised by Yang have been well answered in her.
The time flow rate in the "Fantasy Kingdom" is different from that in the outside world. The two chatted very happily, but they knew they couldn't chat for too long. After some secret talks, Yang couldn't help but suggest that if Ailian escaped from here and if there was no special place to go, he might as well follow them to travel on the mainland. Yang was very interested in her knowledge and experience and wanted to hire her as her tutor for a while.
