Chapter 237 Alchemy

"Has Senior Kumu once been a disciple of Shaolin laymen?" Ye Wutian asked casually. Generally speaking, only Shaolin laymen would have a Dharma name.

"I did have such an experience before." Ku Mu said with emotion.

"So that's how it is." Ye Wutian nodded and then asked again: "Senior Kumu, why is the spiritual energy in this place so rich?"

"The cyan crystals you see in front of you are extremely rare spiritual crystals." said Kumu.

"Spirit Crystal?" Ye Wutian had never heard of this thing.

"In layman's terms, spiritual crystals are pure spirit stones. Because they do not contain many impurities like spiritual stones, they appear in a transparent state. Moreover, the concentration of spiritual energy contained in the spirit crystals is far better than that of spiritual stones. However, because the concentration of spiritual energy is too high, it cannot permanently store spiritual energy like spiritual stones, so these spiritual crystals often only exist within dozens or even hundreds of meters underground. Generally speaking, if there are spiritual stone veins on the surface, spiritual crystals will exist deep in the ground, and the reserves and burial depth of the spirit crystals directly determine the scale of the spirit stone veins." Killing wood explained in detail.

"So, the spiritual stone ore veins on the surface were formed by the evaporating spiritual power from these spiritual crystals deep underground?" Ye Wutian seemed a little surprised.

"It can be understood this way," Kumu nodded and said.

"Then why are the spiritual crystals here so rich, but the spiritual stone ore veins on the surface are so barren?" Ye Wutian asked in confusion. Logically, if there are such a large-scale spiritual crystals here, there should be a large-scale spiritual vein on the surface.

"I guess you have noticed it just now, and there is a huge spiritual array arranged here." Kumu explained.

"Can this spiritual array prevent the evaporation of spiritual energy, which caused the spirit stone ore veins above to lose their spiritual source and become barren." Ye Wutian seemed to understand a little, and at the same time thought to himself, "No wonder the spiritual consciousness of Lei Hun could not detect the situation in the spiritual array just now."

"It's true." Kumu replied.

"Senior Kumu, did you arrange this spiritual array?" Although Ye Wutian had no research on spiritual array science, he also knew that it would be absolutely not easy to arrange such a large spiritual array under the ground.

Kumu shook his head and said, "I don't have this ability."

"Then why are you here?" Ye Wutian was deeply confused.

Ku Mu replied: "The spiritual array here was arranged by an old friend of mine, and the entire space was also created by him. Now that he has something important to leave, I borrowed his treasure land."

"That's right. It seems that your old friend must be very powerful. He can complete such a huge project under the ground." Ye Wutian exclaimed while looking at the surrounding environment.

"Maybe, young man, since you have arrived here, it's time to hand over this place to you." Ku Mu suddenly said.

"Ah? Turn it, turn it over to me? Senior Kumu, I, I heard it right?" Ye Wutian asked in surprise.

"You heard it right, and this place will belong to you from now on. I believe that old friend means that too." Kumu said with deep meaning.

Ye Wutian became more and more confused as he listened. He said with confusion: "Senior Kumu, when you hear it, why do you seem to have expected that I will come here?"

"Maybe this is fate. It's yours. After all, it's yours. Even if you don't come today, it will be yours sooner or later." Kumu said with a deep expression.

"Since Senior Kumu said that, then I would be more respectful than obedient." Ye Wutian was not a polite guy. How could such a good thing that would fall from the sky be without permission?

Then, Kumu asked again: "Young man, I wonder if you are interested in alchemy techniques?"

"Alchemy technique?" Ye Wutian soon thought that this Kumu was a guy who specializes in selling pills. He must be a powerful alchemist. He would ask himself this, and he would probably teach his alchemy technique.

Although he had already guessed this, Ye Wutian still asked motionally: "Is Senior Kumu willing to teach the younger generation the skills of alchemy?"

Kumu didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

Originally, Ye Wutian was still worried about the fact that the elixir was about to be used up, but now Kumu said he wanted to teach him the alchemy technique, which just solved his urgent problem.

"The most important thing in alchemy is the heat, medicine order, medicine dosage and refining time. No matter what kind of refining method is, these four elements must be met."

"Senior Kumu, are there many ways to refine alchemy?" Ye Wutian said in confusion.

"Yes, alchemy is also divided into factions. Different factions have different ways of alchemy, and the success rate and the quality of elixirs are also different." Kumu said.

"What faction do you belong to at the Senior Kumu?" Ye Wutian asked.

"I have no sects and no sects. If I have to distinguish them, at most it will be a scattered sect." Kumu replied.

Ye Wutian nodded and said respectfully: "Then please give me generous advice."

Kumu continued to explain: "In addition to the four major elements that I mentioned before, there are many factors that I have also had a certain impact in the alchemy process, such as the choice of the alchemy furnace, the cultivation of the refiner, and even the quality and formula of the spiritual material."

"Senior Kumu, is there any difference between good and bad in this alchemy furnace?" Ye Wutian was a little confused. In his opinion, no matter how good or bad it was, it was just a lump of iron. There was nothing else to use it to prepare spiritual materials.

Kumu carefully explained: "Alchemy furnaces are also divided into four levels: high-quality, high-quality, medium-level, and low-level according to their quality. The quality of the alchemy furnace will affect the success rate of alchemy and the quality of the elixir to a certain extent. Of course, these external assistance is just to make up for the shortcomings of their own technology. As long as their own technology is excellent, even if they use the lower-grade alchemy furnace, they can still refine good elixirs."

"So, there are qualities between the same elixirs?" I had taken a lot of elixirs when I was practicing with my master before, but Ye Wutian didn't know that this elixir also had qualities.

"Pills are like elixirs, and they are divided into four grades according to their quality. From high to bottom, they are: high-quality, high-quality, medium-quality, and low-quality. The higher the quality, the stronger the medicine is, the more effective it is." Kumu explained.

"Senior Dust Wood, will the quality of fire also affect the quality of the pill?" Ye Wutian asked casually.

Ku Mu shook his head and said, "The alchemy in the practice world is different from the secular alchemy. The secular uses ordinary fire, while the spiritual fire is used in the practice world."

"Spiritual fire? Where will it come from?" Ye Wutian asked in surprise.

"No matter how good the alchemy furnace is, it is a fire-based treasure. Alchemists only need to inject true energy into it, and the alchem ​​furnace will naturally generate spiritual fire." Kumu replied.

Ye Wutian immediately understood that it was like the red flame sword on his back. As long as he injected true energy into it, he could stimulate the fire-based power in the knife and generate flames. I believe the alchemy furnace is the same.

"Since this is the case, the value of the alchemy furnace should be very expensive, right? And only the level of cultivation above can drive this alchemy furnace."

"The price of an alchemy furnace is much more expensive than that of ordinary treasures. As you said, alchemists are all powerful people with a cultivation level above the ground." Kumu said.

"So Senior Kumu, where should I buy this alchemy furnace?" Although this question is a bit stupid, Ye Wutian felt it was still necessary to figure it out, otherwise if he learned alchemy, it would be useless if he didn't have an alchemy furnace.

“There will be a elixir for sale at all major fairs.”

"Why didn't I see anyone selling elixir furnaces at the last martial arts conference?" Ye Wutian said in confusion.

"That's just a small-scale trade fair, and only some low-level monks participate, so naturally there will be no alchemy furnace for sale."

"That's pretty small? Is there a bigger one?" Ye Wutian asked in surprise. In his opinion, the scale of the last spiritual material fair was already extremely grand.

Ku Mu said seriously: "This martial arts world is not as simple as you see now. To be precise, you are still outside the martial arts world."

"Outside the martial arts world? Senior Kurt, what is the inner martial arts world like?" Ye Wutian asked curiously.

"You should explore step by step by step." Kumu said.

Ye Wutian didn't ask any more questions, and then Kumu taught him the art of alchemy.

Like medical skills, alchemy is the most important thing to pay attention to is not theoretical knowledge, but practical experience.

Ye Wutian listened attentively. He was completely immersed in the academics of alchemy, and even forgot his time and himself.

After a long time.

"I can only teach you this. Next, I have to rely on you to explore it slowly." As he said that, Ku Mu took out an old book from a cloth bag behind him, and a palm-sized alchemy furnace, handed it to Ye Wutian, saying: "This book records the formulas, refining steps, and some of my experiences. These are unique secret recipes, remember not to pass on them. This alchemy furnace is only of inferior quality. Beginners should be down-to-earth and abandon the influence of external factors. Only in this way can they learn truly exquisite technology."

"I will follow the teachings of my predecessors." Ye Wutian stretched out his hands and took the books and the alchemy furnace respectfully.

Kumu then reminded: "When you first try it, you can go to the pharmacy to buy some low-level spiritual materials and refine some ordinary disease-removing pills."

"Yes." Ye Wutian agreed, and then asked in confusion: "Senior Kumu, do you have to escape into this place every time?"

"Of course not, come with me." Ku Mu said, then stood up and walked out the door, Ye Wutian followed closely.

Under the guidance of the dead wood, Ye Wutian returned to the small room when he came in.

Without saying a word, the dead wood walked directly towards the wall on the right, and finally he sank into the wall and disappeared.
