Prologue to Chapter 181 Dumping Case
Prologue to Chapter 181 Dumping Case
Alchemy is an industry as old as self-cultivation. It is rumored that in ancient times, before any exercises were born, there were already monks in feathered robes and Gejin looking for the secret of longevity with a pill furnace and a few recipes.
Pills may be the first advanced secret method discovered by monks. When various exercises were discovered one after another by various geniuses and carried forward by various emerging sects, the effect of pills has never been dimmed.
Therefore, even if thousands of years have passed, alchemy is still a highly respected profession.
Since it is an ancient industry...there must be many natural rules, such as Dan Fang.
From Du Ziteng's point of view, there are too many prescriptions for this kind of pills, such as this one: Gathering God Pill, quiet and concentrated.There are more than ten sections of century-old fairy summer vine, seven or eight pieces of vermilion vermilion fruit, three silver-leafed zinnias, three pieces of purple lingsu, and one stalk of celestial ginger grass.
Well, these few crosses are Dan Fang.
Du Ziteng does not focus on alchemy, but in his opinion, it is strange that this kind of thing can be used to refine alchemy. Therefore, after he proposed "standardization of alchemy", he had a long-term and detailed communication with Ge Lin.
Since it is an ancient industry... there must be many inexplicable additional attributes, such as pride.
Therefore, after Du Ziteng proposed the "standardization of alchemy", Ge Lin was full of resistance: "Isn't this what Wang Mancai and the others did? The way of alchemy is one of the great ways, and countless sages and sages have already achieved great success in this way...that's mere How can the way of planting be compared?! What's more, this so-called standardization is not recorded in countless elixir classics, isn't it nonsense?"
In the eyes of a trained alchemist, this is simply ridiculous, standardization?How could it be possible for Dan Dao to be such a child's play?
Du Ziteng noticed Ge Lin's full face of resistance, but he kept his face and only discussed the alchemy process with Ge Lin in detail. Cough, he was actually asking about the alchemist's career development path.
It is not difficult to find that alchemy is actually a money-burning industry, why burn money?This shit is all burning proficiency!Take a look at the elixir prescription, what are more than ten paragraphs, seven or eight pills... Is it eleven or nineteen paragraphs?Seven or eight, or seven or eight 56?
Even if it is the "one plant of heavenly ginger grass" identified later, this description is extremely ridiculous in Du Ziteng's view. Monks such as Wang Mancai have already proved through experiments that the same type of plant can behave completely differently even in the same age. For example, is the vermilion fruit they cultivated the same as the vermilion fruit in the so-called cultivation world?
It's no wonder that Ge Lin blew up three alchemy furnaces based on such an alchemy formula.
It's not the fault of plant cultivation in the secret realm, but scientific plant cultivation magnifies the original roughness in the alchemy industry and fully exposes the problem.
The success of alchemists does not rely on scientific process control, but on the experience they have burned with money. Alchemists with more experience can naturally easily judge what kind of spiritual plant and what kind of heat is best.
Therefore, the index to measure the alchemist is called alchemy rate.
Yes, Cheng Dan rate.
Seeing this indicator, Du Ziteng almost cried with laughter.
This question is the same as what he instructed Wang Mancai and the others to plant before. If standardization is achieved, even if it is operated by a mortal, it should produce consistent results. Why is there still a talk about the alchemy rate?
As for the shitty alchemy talent... It is estimated that some people are better at manipulating spiritual power and summing up experience, so it takes less money and faster time to burn proficiency.
What Du Ziteng doubted even more was that the reliability of this kind of ambiguous pill formula and the pill that only relied on Cheng Dan as the only basis for success might be questionable.
Du Ziteng couldn't help asking: "Will the same pill be different in the cultivation world?"
Speaking of his professional field, Ge Lin proudly said: "That's natural, there are differences between high-grade and low-grade pills, like this God-gathering pill, what I refine is completely different from that made by ordinary alchemists! The success rate of pills is generally more than [-]%! Among the pills, the top grade can also account for [-]%!"
Du Ziteng was a layman, so he didn't know what a terrifying statistic this was, but seeing Ge Lin's smug face, he could probably guess that it was a pretty good result.
But this is what really made him feel pained: "So, the average alchemist can't even achieve [-]% of the alchemy rate? Is there a difference between the pills that come out of one furnace?"
As far as Ge Lin's grades are concerned, it's probably because he has a golden core father who helped him develop proficiency with countless talents and treasures.
Ge Lin felt that Du Ziteng's tone was not right, but he still nodded truthfully.
Du Ziteng sighed: "I know why the founder of our Hengxiao Sword Sect wants to become a sword cultivator."
Wang Mancai and others on the side also asked curiously: "Why?"
Du Ziteng said in a daze: "Because only swordsmen don't have to rely on external things, so they won't be cheated by pills."
With such uncertain factors, the elixirs refined have to be eaten, one can imagine how much the properties of the medicine fluctuate, and how cheating it will be...
Ge Lin: ...
Wang Mancai and the others were startled, and then burst out laughing.
Du Ziteng saw the displeasure on Ge Lin's face, and knew that he had misunderstood him, so he didn't explain much, but said, "Among the pills, which one is the easiest?"
Ge Lin asked sharply: "What? Fellow Daoist Du wants to make alchemy himself?!"
Du Ziteng patted Ge Lin on the shoulder calmly and said, "It's not alchemy, but let's explore together how to make alchemy better."
Ge Lin chuckled and said, "Okay!"
His eyes are clearly a kind of schadenfreude.
Immediately, he threw over another prescription: Huangya Pill, which contains gentle spiritual power and can help practice.There are several hundred-year-old yellow buds, which are turned three times.
Only Yiwei Lingzhi, Du Ziteng thought for a while and said: "Ge Daoyou, you and I should act like this. Since you don't agree with standardization, you don't have to force it. Let's make a bet."
Ge Lin, the former young master, immediately regained his energy when he heard about betting. Since he entered the secret realm, he has no alchemy, and no fun to find. Before, everyone was struggling to survive, but after the conditions were better, everyone was working hard. , it was nothing to play, at this time Du Ziteng actually mentioned betting on his own initiative, how could he not be excited.
Du Ziteng had a holy smile on his face: "Let's gamble with this yellow bud pill, what is your success rate now?"
"Seventy percent."
"How much is the top grade"
Ge Lin thought for a while, and reported truthfully: "Thirty percent."
Du Ziteng clapped his hands and said, "Okay. During this period of time, I will arrange your alchemy. Let's refine this yellow bud pill. If after that, your alchemy rate is less than [-]%, and the top grade is less than [-]%. Even if I lose, I won't mention this standardization anymore, how about it?"
Ge Lin laughed: "Okay!" Then he laughed and said, "I said Du Ziteng, this time you must be set, it's not that I'm brazen, my attainments in Huang Ya Dan are considered to be at the top level in the cultivation world To put it bluntly, even if those Alchemy Dao masters are here, I will never lose much to them! Over the years, I have improved so much in Alchemy Dao, but this Huangya Pill has not made any progress. How dare you say that you can still improve? Even those It is absolutely impossible for Dan Dao Dao to achieve the number you said, hahahahahaha..."
From his point of view, Du Ziteng must have lost, but after hearing his self-evaluation, Du Ziteng didn't have the slightest bit of uneasiness, but instead smiled more happily: "This is better."
Wang Man, who knew the power of standardization well, couldn't help shivering when he saw this smile, and then looked at Young Master Ge with a pitiful look: I'm afraid this young man doesn't know, the higher his level in Huang Yadan, the better he is. The more it can reflect the power of standardization...
The days that followed were the time of Huangyacao.
The learning of this thing was naturally planted, and according to the characteristics of the yellow bud grass, a total of thirteen different types were cultivated. After Du Ziteng confirmed them one by one, the alchemy officially began.
Betting, this kind of thing is a form that the people love to hear. Hearing that Du Ziteng actually bet with Ge Lin on alchemy, many people immediately became interested, and even secretly set up a bet in the secret territory.
And the odds are quite interesting, Ge Lin pays [-] for [-], but Du Ziteng pays [-] for [-].
The content of the bet has long since disappeared, [-]% of the pill rate, [-]% of the top-rank rate, this is simply absurd!
Even Huo Lianzi, the most powerful alchemy giant in the cultivation world, would never be able to do it. What's even more absurd is that Du Ziteng himself is not even an alchemist. I'm afraid he has never even touched an alchemy furnace. Is there anything more absurd to instruct Ge Lin to do it?
It is well known that Du Ziteng is very good at drawing talismans, but alchemy is another matter, no matter how miracles are created, there is no way to create them like this.
That one pays three... I'm afraid it is the result of Du Ziteng's prestige in the secret realm.
Du Ziteng just clicked his tongue and didn't comment much.
In the midst of everyone's attention, Wang Mancai and the others prepared all kinds of standard yellow bud grass, and began alchemy.
First furnace.
"This is an ordinary yellow bud grass, without a clear evolution direction, with a spiritual energy content of [-], a length of eight inches, and an even proportion of the five elements. It is basically the same as the common hundred-year-old yellow bud grass in the cultivation world. We weigh it now, Mr. Ge, please Bar."
Without saying a word, Ge Lin turned on the pill furnace and put it into the spiritual plant. With the input of spiritual power, the pill fire gradually flourished. When the runes on the pill furnace lit up, Ge Lin manipulated the pill furnace to overturn and rotate. The tactic in his hand changed and continued, like this three times.I saw Ge Lin's face was relaxed and at ease, and he was obviously familiar with it. After a while, when a wave of spiritual energy diffused, Ge Lin gave a soft drink, tilted the pill furnace slightly, and spit out thirteen pills in one go. Huang Chengcheng's elixir came out, and four of them were shining brightly, which was a sign of top grade.
There was a cheer from the crowd.Among the thirteen grains, there are four top-grade grains, which is rare in the cultivation world.
Ge Lin raised his eyebrows, his pride was beyond words.
Du Ziteng saw that his spiritual power was still abundant, so he didn't hesitate anymore: "The next group, the first-level yellow bud grass, the evolution direction is the spiritual energy content, the spiritual energy content is forty, the length is eight inches, the five elements are evenly proportioned, and it is still five taels, please." .”
The release of this batch of pills amazed everyone even more, there were actually 33 pills!Among them, the top grade has reached an astonishing eight pills!
"The next group, the second-level yellow bud grass, the evolution direction is the spiritual energy content, the spiritual energy content is [-], the length is eight inches, and the five elements are evenly proportioned, five taels."
This pot of elixir exploded to slag before it came out of the oven.
Du Ziteng asked for another serving, but it was still fried.
Another serving, and finally a pill, the result reached a terrifying eighty pills, and the top grade also had eight pills.
These eighty yellow bud pills made many monks below couldn't help whispering, it's just too perverted, isn't it? Even Ge Lin himself was a little complacent while relaxing. Eighty grains can be refined.
And Du Ziteng said: "Please Daoist Ge take a rest for a while, and continue later."
Ge Lin nodded in agreement, he was indeed a little tired, and the pensive look in Du Ziteng's eyes flashed away.
In the subsequent arrangement, the strange yellow bud pills of various evolution directions took turns, but no matter what, there was still no pattern in Ge Lin's Chengdan.The onlookers couldn't guess what medicine Du Ziteng was selling in the gourd, and it was intuitively reflected in the betting field. After fluctuating for a long time, Du Ziteng's odds remained at [-] for [-].
Not long after, the yellow bud grass that Du Ziteng took out turned into the original prescription again:
"The next group, common-grade yellow bud grass, evolves towards the spiritual energy content, the spiritual energy content is forty, the length is eight inches, and the proportion of the five elements is even, still five taels."
This made Ge Lin a little confused, but no matter how the yellow bud grass given by Du Ziteng changed, he still refined it according to the Dan recipe.
After a long time, Du Ziteng said: "Okay, it's done."
Immediately, he asked someone to prepare ten copies of the same yellow bud grass, and said to Ge Lin, "Young Master Ge, we can start the betting test."
Ge Lin was taken aback, so quickly, those all kinds of messy yellow buds just now looked completely different from those in the cultivation world. I really don't know how Du Ziteng's [-]% pill rate and [-]% top-grade rate can be achieved, because With these messy yellow buds, his alchemy rate was only [-]% to [-]% just now, and he didn't even reach his usual results, let alone [-]%!And that top-grade panacea, so many furnaces have been produced just now, but none of them has reached [-]%, so is there any other way for Du Ziteng to succeed?
The crowd below was buzzing and discussing. The yellow bud grass and Chengdan that Du Ziteng used all the way here were all placed there. Everyone knew the content of his bet with Ge Lin. How could this be possible!
As a result, Du Ziteng's odds skyrocketed all the way, from [-] to [-] all the way to [-] to [-], and finally to [-] to [-] before it could be stopped!
In such an unfavorable bet, with exactly the same yellow bud grass in front of him, Ge Lin naturally wouldn't ask any more questions.
Now, Du Ziteng doesn't need to report more about the ingredients of the yellow bud grass, Ge Lin directly refines it.
In the first furnace, there are fourteen pills and six top grade pills.
The second furnace, fourteen pills, seven top grade.
The third furnace, fourteen pills, eight top grade pills.
The fourth furnace, fourteen pills, nine top-grade pills! ! !
... The crowd already had a stunned expression.
Even Ge Lin himself was unbelievable when he was resting.Why are there so many top-grade pills?As an alchemist, he just clearly noticed that these few batches of alchemy were made with unprecedented ease, and that feeling was comfortable, joyful, and refreshing!
The alchemy he has refined can be said to be countless, but there has never been a single alchemy like this, as easy as drinking water and eating, it seems that there is no effort at all, and the pills come out easily...
Ninth furnace, fourteen grains become mortal, ten grains are top grade!
The crowd has gone from being blown up to being silent. Many of them bought Ge Lin to win. Now, they can be sure that they have paid for it. However, this loss has been wiped out by everyone when they witnessed the birth of the miracle. Neglect, yes, miracles.
A miracle that has never been seen in the world of comprehension.
Alchemy, more than [-]% of alchemy rate!More than [-]% of the top-grade pills!Never, never, never...
No alchemist can go against the sky like this, but Ge Lin did it today.
But everyone knew that the reason for all this was not Ge Lin who worked so hard on the stage, but a guy who was not even an alchemist who was leisurely and contented with his arms folded!
All the alchemy masters couldn't do it, but this guy who wasn't even an alchemist could do it easily.
The elixir of the tenth furnace made a puffing sound at the third turn, and a burning smell dissipated... Failed.
There was an unsatisfactory sigh from the crowd, alas, it was only one shot away and it would be perfect, but this sigh was quickly replaced by excited discussions. Someone really won the bet that sounded so absurd!
And Ge Lin on the stage knew in his heart... the last furnace, the last furnace was blown up because his heart was overwhelmed and he couldn't control the pill furnace well!If his mood is as calm as before, or his mental state has been cultivated to a higher level, with Du Ziteng's method, this is actually a [-]% success rate!
At this moment, Ge Lin let out a long breath, pushed away the alchemy furnace and bowed to Du Ziteng to the end: "Brother Du, I lost, I am convinced!"
Then he stood up and asked eagerly, "How did you do it?"
Ge Lin proposed this bet only to defend the dignity of alchemy. He thought that Du Ziteng's whimsical standardization was just a desecration of this ancient cultivation skill, but he did not expect that the result would be like this.
As a member of alchemy, Ge Lin is so eager to know the mystery, he has a hunch that if he can know the answer, his alchemy will be completely different.
And the countless onlookers below held their breaths and listened attentively, waiting for the possibly earth-shattering answer.
And Xiaoye Du showed that smile again: "The reason is 'standardization'."
Ge Lin clenched his chest with a mouthful of old blood, and the onlookers below: ...
Du Xiaoye said shamelessly: "I have told you all the answers~" Then he suddenly said to the Hehuan Sect disciple who was in charge of the bet: "Hey, how much did we earn?"
The dead silence only lasted for a moment, and Du Xiaoye was quickly surrounded by pill residue, rotten stones, and smelly shoes...
Afterwards, the answer is nothing new, to put it bluntly.
"I have carefully observed your alchemy. The so-called three turns, the first turn is to roughly remove impurities, the second turn is to refine and purify, and the third turn is to divide the pills into even parts, right?"
Ge Lin nodded. The so-called three turns in alchemy is indeed the case. There are five turns and six turns in the higher-level alchemy recipes. Among the complicated techniques are the use of ice aura to stimulate the alchemy power, and then add other spiritual plants for reconciliation in the middle Yes, in short, the basic three-turn method is indeed the case.
"And I found that the failure is most likely to occur in the third turn. The yellow bud grass with [-] spiritual energy content told me that the reason is probably that distributing pills is too energy-consuming and difficult for alchemists to master. The batch of [-] pills You did not succeed for the first time in the third batch of Huangya Pill. Therefore, I tested your best control point for aura during alchemy."
"As for the top-grade pill, after several rounds of observation, I found that when the pill is divided, if there are some tiny impurities mixed in the final pill liquid, it will affect the birth of the top-grade pill. Therefore, as long as the final pill is made With fewer impurities, top-grade pills will naturally increase. There are two ways to do this. First, improve the alchemist's refining techniques and remove all impurities during purification. Second, improve the raw materials to make the original impurity content in the pill reduce."
"I just concluded from a slightly improved batch of yellow bud grass that the grass roots will introduce more impurities. The last batch of yellow bud grass that I gave you was all rootless."
Ge Lin was already dumbfounded, his best control point for aura?Why doesn't he know...
The effect of yellow bud grass root?This point has never been mentioned in any Dan Fang.
Du Ziteng seemed to have seen through what he was thinking, and smiled slightly: "Of course, the most fundamental reason why I can do all this is that those yellow bud grasses have been standardized, and the spiritual energy content of forty is forty, not much. Nothing less, and taking out these uncertainties makes it easy to identify other factors that influenced the results."
"The last batch of yellow bud pills, you know it very well, don't you think it's very smooth?"
Ge Lin nodded sharply. It was so smooth. He had never thought that alchemy was so easy. He even had a feeling that even if it wasn't him, it would be easy to achieve this result even if it was done by another person.
Du Ziteng pointed at the yellow bud grass in front of them that had its roots removed and said: "This kind of smoothness is not only because the root impurities have been removed from the yellow bud grass, and the weight is designed according to your aura control points, but also because, Each of them is exactly the same, you don't need to bother to make small adjustments, you just need to follow a certain method to refine it, it will be very easy, even if it is a person who has never learned alchemy , you just need to teach him your technique, teach him, he doesn't need to have too much failure experience, he can also have a [-]% alchemy rate and a [-]% top-rank rate."
"Improving alchemy recipes efficiently, simplifying the alchemy process, and reducing alchemy requirements, this is the power of standardization."
Du Ziteng's words laid the foundation for the Dao of Alchemy in the Secret Realm of Breaking Dawn, and Ge Lin quickly invested in it enthusiastically. Moreover, at Du Ziteng's request, many children in Xianyuan Town, as long as their spiritual roots meet the requirements and are clever, will be accepted. Ge Lin joined the sect.
And the parents of these children were surprised to find that my Goudan is also a genius in alchemy!After only a few months of learning, I can produce yellow bud pills every day, and there is a [-]% rate of pills, and a [-]% rate of top grade!
All of a sudden, in the secret realm of Lixiao, "alchemy geniuses" walked all over the place, and there were not as many "alchemists" as dogs.
Standardized spiritual plant output + standardized alchemy operations, the planting cost of spiritual plants has been reduced to an astonishing level, and the conversion rate of spiritual plants to pills has never been seen in the history of the cultivation world. Various high-quality low-level pills The price of the medicine was cheaper than drinking water for a while, and it was so cheap that the low-level monks bought it generously when they became resistant to the medicine.
And Du Ziteng himself immersed himself in drawing talismans. When he received the news, he chuckled, and resolutely picked up his pen again. With the huge amount of supplies, the news rushed to the bloody mouth thousands of miles away, bringing about the biggest dumping case in the cultivation world.
