Chapter 154 Mandan
After returning to the family, he first refined a furnace of foundation-building pills, arranged for Wang Yanzhi to go into seclusion, and then found Wang Yanzhao: "Old Wang, I'm back. Uncle Yanzhi has already practiced Qi at the ninth level, so I let him go to build the foundation. At this time, one more foundation-building cultivator will give the family an extra boost."
Wang Yanzhao has been very busy recently, and his spirit and energy seem to be much worse. When he saw Wang Hao, he didn't even raise his head and said directly: "You arrange it. By the way, where did the foundation-building pill come from? Didn't the ancestors take it away?"
"I still have one in my hand. It was originally reserved for Uncle Yanzhi. When I went overseas, I saw that his cultivation speed was good, and I thought he should be able to build the foundation," Wang Hao answered casually.
Wang Yanzhao frowned, but said nothing. He then took out a storage bag and said, "You just came back, so I shouldn't bother you any more. But now many of the family's alchemists have gone overseas, and no one is making these spiritual medicines. Your sixth uncle has gone into seclusion to make medicines. This is the remaining material. Take it!"
"You should know the current situation in the Qingyuanmen area and the family's current situation. The cultivators in the family really need this batch of spiritual medicines to speed up their cultivation and quickly improve their cultivation. They also need some healing pills to prepare for future wars."
Wang Hao nodded seriously: "Since I have chosen to stay, I naturally have to contribute to the family. Old Wang, you should also pay attention to rest. I will go to make medicine and try to use up this batch of materials as soon as possible!"
After that, Wang Hao left the meeting hall and went directly to the alchemy room.
There are still a few old first-level alchemists left in the family. Wang Hao doesn't need to worry about most of the first-level elixirs needed. Only some special elixirs such as Ju Shen Dan need Wang Hao's help to refine. There are many young cultivators in the family now. The demand is relatively large for first-level low-grade elixirs and first-level medium-grade elixirs. The consumption of second-level elixirs is not large. Even if Wang Yanzhi, Wang Yanpeng, and Wang Wenyuan are counted, there are only six foundation-building cultivators left in the Wang family, so most of them are used to exchange resources with the Li and Lei families.
Wang Hao came to the Dan Hall. The Wang family did not have the ground fire. In fact, it was the same for Wang Hao to refine elixirs in his own cave. However, the Dan Hall was more convenient. There was everything. There were also people who came from time to time to collect the refined elixirs, saving Wang Hao from running back and forth.
First open the storage bag, classify the spiritual medicines in it, and put them in one furnace after another. In the end, there were more than 70 furnaces in total, and 40 furnaces of second-level elixirs. It might take him half a year to refine.
There were also several clansmen in the alchemy hall. Seeing Wang Hao coming to make pills, they were ready to serve him. However, Wang Hao was not used to this, so he sent them out and only asked them to come to get pills once a month.
Close the alchemy room and start making elixirs.
First, the Qi Ju Dan, which Wang Hao was more familiar with, was more suitable for cultivators in the early and middle stages of foundation building. Of course, it was also effective in the later stages, but it was a little worse. Nowadays, there were few cultivators in the late stages of foundation building in Qingniufang, so this kind of pill was the most popular.
Wang Hao was already a second-level upper-grade alchemist and had refined Qi Ju Dan several times. In the past, the success rate of the pill was about 70%, which was already very high. However, now with the help of spiritual water, Wang Hao planned to strive for a full pill.
A full pill is one of the lifelong pursuits of every alchemist. It is not about the economic benefits, but it can prove the skill level of an alchemist. For the second-level lower-grade alchemists, the success rate is the key to distinguish the high and low. If the success rate is 80%, then whether a full pill has been refined becomes another key.
People always have to have some goals. Wang Hao now has no other goals to set except pursuing the full pill. A third-level alchemist? That's too far away. Don't consider it before the late stage of foundation building.
First clean the pill furnace, stimulate the pill fire, raise the temperature of the pill furnace, and preheat the pill furnace.
When the temperature is suitable, put in what spiritual medicine first? What spiritual medicine is put in next? What spiritual medicine is put in last?
Wang Hao has done these things countless times, and he is particularly serious at this moment. If he wants to refine a full pill, he can't be careless at any step.
Only when the liquid of one spiritual medicine is refined can the next one be put in. After all the extractions are completed, they can be mixed together. The order cannot be messed up, otherwise the medicinal properties will be lost.
That's it. Wang Hao has been refining the Qi Gathering Pill for a month, but he still hasn't been able to refine a full pill, but it's not far away. He has refined nine pills in the last furnace, and he should be able to refine a full pill in a few more times.
Two months later, Wang Hao finally laughed happily after opening the pill furnace. After consuming the spiritual medicine given by Wang Yanzhao, he took another batch from the farm and finally refined a full pill. After all, changing a pill requires re-familiarizing with the steps.
After success, Wang Hao was much faster in refining other pills.
It took more than half a year to complete the refining of all the pills.
A total of 270 Qi Gathering Pills, 100 Qi Recovery Pills, 88 Qingyun Pills, 103 Yuan Healing Pills, 17 Yuan Replenishing Pills, and 9 Shen Gathering Pills were obtained.
The pill success rate remained above 60%, and only the second-level upper-grade Yuan Replenishing Pill was lower, less than 50%.
With such a high pill success rate, he is already a leader among the second-level alchemists.
Half a year later, the door of Wang Hao's cave, which had been closed for half a year, suddenly opened. Wang Hao walked out and stretched.
In the past six months, he has refined hundreds of furnaces of elixirs and upgraded the Tuhun Seal to a top-grade spiritual weapon. In fact, he obtained a lot of materials from the Danding Sect, including a third-grade lower-grade earth-attribute spiritual material, which can upgrade the Tuhun Seal to the level of a magic weapon.
But he didn't do so, mainly because the magic weapon is powerful and consumes a lot of mana. He is only at the fifth level of foundation building, and all the mana injected can only drive it once, and the power is only 20%. Although this 20% can kill a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building in seconds, the battle is continuous, not explosive.
Besides, he has a magic weapon in his hand, and the power of the Mitian bracelet is also good.
"Meet the elder," the waiting tribesman immediately came forward to greet.
Wang Hao nodded: "The last batch of pills has been refined, you send it... Forget it, I will go to the head of the family in person, you go and clean up the alchemy room!"
"Yes, elder!" Two tribesmen immediately entered the alchemy room and began to clean up. They were very serious and did not miss any corner.
With the help of the tribesmen, Wang Hao saved some trivial matters and was much more efficient.
Wang Hao brought the refined pills to Wang Yanzhao: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and refined a lot of pills. In addition to satisfying the use of the family's cultivators, I can also exchange some spiritual talismans and spiritual tools from the Li and Lei families!"
Wang Yanzhao has received a batch of them one after another. He has to sigh that Wang Hao's alchemy skills have surpassed him. He is still stuck in the second-level middle-grade, and there is still a distance from the top-grade alchemist.
But Wang Hao is his son, and he is happy from the bottom of his heart: "Not bad, Hao'er, your alchemy skills really surprise your father. Sixth uncle has also refined a lot. Your uncle Yanzhi and Wenyuan have successfully established their foundations. It's just right to exchange them for some magical tools! It's a pity that your uncle Yanpeng failed to establish his foundation!"
"Everyone has his own destiny, but with the help of the pulse-protecting pill, Uncle Yanpeng should have a solid foundation. He can continue to attack after recuperating for a period of time!" Wang Hao sighed and comforted.
"But where can I find the Foundation Establishment Pills?" Wang Yanzhao couldn't help but frown. The resources wasted in a failed foundation establishment attempt were equivalent to more than 40,000 spirit stones. If it were to fail twice, that would be 80,000. An ordinary foundation establishment cultivator would only produce two to three thousand spirit stones a year. It would take 40 to 50 years to pay off the family's debt.
