Chapter 531: Alchemy Details

Regarding the problem of medication dosage, Yuantian made a lot of records and compared them one by one. He summed up several ways to refine high-quality pills, and then silently recorded them in his heart. There is another thing that needs to be observed and recorded well, and that is the problem of heat during alchemy.

An experienced alchemist will often judge the temperature of the furnace according to the color of the furnace fire, and then use the method of counting breaths to calculate the time. After more experience on the spot, I don't need to count the breath, and I can grasp the eight or nine by feeling. Although the experience of the old alchemy master is very sophisticated, it cannot be without any errors. However, this kind of error is also the same as the amount of medication, sometimes it is a bad error, and sometimes it can become a good error.

In fact, if you think carefully about the so-called standard dosage, furnace temperature and alchemy time, etc., it is also the experience summed up by the predecessors, and it is not necessarily so accurate, even if it is accurate, it is not unchangeable. For the temperature of the furnace fire and the time of refining, Yuan Tian also observed and recorded, and it was recorded together with the factors of the amount of medicinal materials.

The ability to observe the color of the furnace fire is not true, and even the temperature is not so accurate and meticulous. But there is one thing he can do, and no one in the cultivation realm can do it, and that is to make thermometers. Seeing with the eyes and feeling with the body is no matter how accurate it is, it is not as accurate as the standard temperature and measurement. It's not easy to think about those old pharmacists, and they can judge by their own feelings. Gentian doesn't have that accurate judgment, but he has his own methods.

As for the time, it is better to count, and the pocket watch made by Yuantian is very powerful. The method of counting breaths used by the old alchemy masters is actually counting breaths. One breath is about one second, and the time required for alchemy is counted by this method. Yuantian's self-made pocket watch is amazing, and the ability to count time is more than ten times more accurate than counting information. Therefore, in terms of the time required for alchemy, he studied more carefully than the old alchemy master.

Knowledge is wealth, and these special knowledge of Yuan Tian have helped him a lot. Then he counted the amount of medicinal materials, the temperature of the furnace, the time required for alchemy, and other factors. First of all, I practiced a furnace of Zhuyan Pill in the most standard way, and I succeeded in a hundred along the way. According to the records in the book, if these medicinal materials succeed in one hundred Zhuyan Pills, it is equivalent to 100% success. Although these 100 are all medium-grade Zhuyan Pills, they are also quite powerful. Especially for a novice in alchemy like Yuan Tian, it's simply a miracle.

"The source team leader is so powerful, is he really just starting to learn alchemy?"

"Yes, the source team leader is really amazing. I heard that he is very good at making spirit runes, and he invented the paper cannons used in our organization, and I heard that it only took a short time for him to learn to make spirit runes. ”

The people in the manufacturing team were talking about Yuantian's affairs, and not only some newcomers were incredible, but even some alchemy masters were also shocked. Yuan Tian followed them to observe and learn alchemy, and this is what really happened. It is absolutely impossible to say that Yuan Tian deliberately concealed his skills and pretended not to understand, he really didn't know much about alchemy before. That can only explain one problem, Yuan Tian really mastered the alchemy technique in such a short period of time, and the first furnace of Zhuyan Pill was actually a hundred successes.

Where would they have thought that the reason why Yuan Tian's success rate was so high was not because of how high his alchemy talent was. He is not good at things that require time and experience, such as observing the color of the furnace, feeling the temperature of the furnace, and holding the amount of medicinal materials with his hands. The reason why Yuantian can succeed is based on rigorous data and scientific statistics. After comparing a lot of data that was a failure and a success, he came to a conclusion. That is, if you follow the formula in the book to alchemy, the success rate can be said to be almost 100%, if it is not successful, it means that there are still subtle factors that have changed. However, almost all of the pills refined by this standard method are of medium grade level.

The medium-grade Zhuyan Pill was successfully refined, and Yuan Tian wanted to try to refine the high-grade Zhuyan Dan. The factors and data of the old alchemy master's cultivation of high-grade Zhuyan Dan were recorded in detail by Yuan Tian. However, there is still something to be learned after practice, because when a high-grade Zhuyan Pill is produced in a furnace, not all the pills are of high quality. There are often low-grade, medium-grade, and high-grade Zhuyan Dan inside.

The same recipe, the same furnace of elixir, and the same time has been refined, why there are three different qualities of Zhuyan Pill, this question still needs to be carefully studied. Yuan Tian began the refining of the pill according to the data that ten high-grade Zhuyan Pills, thirty medium-grade Zhuyan Pills and fifty low-grade Zhuyan Pills appeared in one furnace at a time. At that time, this furnace of elixir was not too successful, because a total of ninety Zhuyan pills had only been refined. If it is 100% successful, it should be refined into 100 pieces.

But the alchemy masters don't see it that way, it would be good to have a high-grade pill, and if ten pills appeared, it would be very powerful. Even if the other ninety pills fail, if they succeed in ten high-grade pills, they won't lose anything.

Each medicinal material source is strictly weighed with a small balance, and the weight control has been accurate to micrograms. He has also measured the temperature of the furnace, and its accuracy has reached one percent of one degree Celsius. What he's doing now is controlling the temperature of the furnace while looking at his homemade pocket watch. Be sure to take out the pill on time in a tenth-second time.

In fact, after the pill is successfully refined, it can be seen at a glance, because after the success of the pill, the pill will become a pill and exude the fragrance of medicine. But in such a short period of time when he saw that the pill had succeeded, but he had taken it out of the alchemy furnace. A slight difference may also affect the quality of the elixir. Even such a slight difference, Yuan Tian refused to let go. He believed that as long as he observed carefully enough, if he grasped the slightest error in various factors, he would definitely be able to refine the imaginary elixir.

When the time came, Yuan Tian didn't even look at whether there was a pill type and smelled the fragrance of the medicine. As long as the conditions recorded in his data are reached, he will come out quickly and without hesitation. When I took it out, I saw that it was really ninety Zhuyan Pills, and I don't know what Lu Dao was missing, ten of them. When the old alchemy master practiced it, there were also ten pills missing in that furnace. However, in the same way, Yuan Tian also practiced ten high-quality Zhuyan Pills this time, as well as thirty medium-grade and fifty low-grade Zhuyan Pills.

It seems that as long as you use the same conditions, you can practice the pill with the same result, and Yuan Tian is in a good mood after coming to this conclusion.
