Chapter 208 High-level Alchemy Furnace

In the cave, there were two different alchemy furnaces in front of Mo Juren.

One is the small and exquisite Hongluotian furnace, and the other is the firewood tripod of Lingdan Taoist.

In comparison, that little firewood tripod is simply garbage.

I don’t know which mediocre Qi-refining master the Lingdan Taoist found to create this.

Fortunately, he found an authentic alchemy furnace at the Lingshou Mountain Market, and also got a copy of "Wang's Alchemy Classic" as a gift, which just made up for Mo Juren's lack of basic knowledge about alchemy.

The alchemy method that was previously explored slowly using the small firewood cauldron based on mortal techniques is still very different from the real alchemy.

After Mo Juren read Wang's Alchemy Classic, he had a deeper understanding of the use of Hongluo Tianlu.
After a period of meditation and cultivating his energy, Mo Juren carefully took out the many different kinds of spiritual herbs he brought back from Cangjian Villa and began to refine pills using the Hongluotian Furnace.

Different from the previous method of simply putting medicinal materials into a small cauldron to start making pills, Wang's Alchemy Classic mentioned the importance of raw materials, which are directly related to the quality of the finished pills.

All medicinal materials for alchemy need to go through a refining process. Although it takes some extra time, it can increase the success rate of alchemy.

Mo Juren still used the most familiar Bigu Pill to practice. He first put ordinary cinnamon fruit, Poria cocos, fruit pill, jade ganoderma and other materials into the Hongluotian furnace for refining.

After the medicinal materials are refined, unnecessary ingredients are removed first. Not only do they look more medicinal, but their volume and weight are also reduced a lot, which is very beneficial for subsequent control.

Then he refined the pills step by step according to the familiar recipe and techniques. As a result, he successfully produced twelve high-quality fasting pills on the first batch.

Mo Juren was extremely happy. Whether it was controlling the fire, melting the elixir, injecting spirit, engraving patterns, or condensing and collecting the elixir, every step of this Hongluo Tianlu could save Mo Juren a lot of worries.

In the end, the final success rate is at least twice as high as before!
With the help of this Hongluo Tianlu, Mo Juren instantly went from an entry-level first-grade alchemist to a first-grade top-level alchemist!
Overjoyed, Mo Juren began to refine the elixir as planned.

Bigu Pills, Huiqi Pills, Zhenhuang Pills, Yangmai Pills, Huilong Pills, as batch after batch of pills were successfully produced, the cave was filled with the pleasant aroma of various pills.

In the end, even those elixirs that did not require alchemy techniques but only ordinary preparation were refined using this Hongluotian furnace.

Such as the white millet pills for the cloud-winged bird, the Gu Ling liquid for the poisonous insects, the big and small dragon pills for the Jingjiao Society, and the Xiangyan pills for the ladies, etc.

In three days, Mo Juren worked day and night to refine more than thirty bottles of various pills.

Judging from the quantity, it will be enough for use in the next two to three years at least.

Moreover, Mo Juren also specially refined more essential elixirs such as Qi-restoring Pills that are often used by cultivators in combat.

The Qi-restoring pills he refined had three times the recovery power of regular pills in the market, and had been used in actual combat, winning high praise from Honglian and Madam Xiang.

If you can't go to Lingshou Mountain Market or Tiannan Market, then go to Mengshan to sell these elixirs. I believe that this can also open up a second way to earn spirit stones for yourself.

After collecting the spiritual herbs and elixirs in the cave, Mo Juren prepared to leave again.

After taking a quick look at the cave, he came to the insect nest in the corner and saw that the fat queen had given birth to two more pairs of mother and child heart-eating insects, and he quickly put them away. He originally had three pairs of mother and child heart-eating insects, one pair was used on Jin Guang, one pair was used on Tian Ling, and now he just got two more pairs.

As a Gu Queen, she only produces two or three insect Gu a year, which is obviously not right. It should be that Mo Juren has not mastered the real method of raising Gu.

Thinking of the promise he had made to give Madam Xiang a surprise, Mo Juren simply put the Queen of Gu into the spirit beast bag and took her away.

After instructing Zhang Qing again to take good care of the cave and practice with peace of mind, Mo Juren took advantage of the wind and drove the Xingyun Boat to Bailian Gorge.

After successfully arriving at Grandma Jinhua's secret realm, Mo Juren wanted to go directly through the space between two trees and climb up the hidden stairs just like Honglian did before, but he stepped on empty air.

After many unsuccessful attempts, Mo Juren had to resort to the most traditional method and started shouting.
"Sister Honglian, your brother is here, why don't you let me up quickly!"

After shouting several times, the stairs appeared in front of him. Honglian ran down to greet him.
"Brother Zhang Tie, come up quickly. Honglian was inconsiderate. I will get a cave token for Brother Zhang Tie to carry with him in a moment."

Climbing the stairs hand in hand with the beauty, Mo Juren was finally able to reach this secret realm in the sky again.

Honglian usually showed her true beauty in front of Mo Juren. She took Mo Juren's hand, came closer naturally, and said,

"Madam Xiang is still in seclusion for cultivation. I believe she will come out soon."

"It's okay. I just want to have a few private words with Sister Honglian," Mo Juren turned around and asked her, "Last time when we killed Feng De, Sister Honglian once reached the state of half-step foundation building. I wonder if she can cultivate back now?"

Honglian said embarrassedly,

"That half-step foundation building was just a temporary state of mana. It was only possible thanks to the great help from Brother Zhang Tie... In fact, Honglian's real cultivation level is only at the ninth level of Qi Refining."

Mo Juren was surprised.
"Really? I thought that after this experience, it would be easier for Sister Honglian to rebuild."

Seeing Honglian's cute and obedient appearance, Mo Juren's index finger was excited and he teased,

"Then if the two of you and I try again, I wonder if Sister Honglian can reach the top again?"

"Of course... Honglian doesn't know either..." His face turned red as he spoke.

Mo Juren picked her up by the waist and laughed,
"Haha, we'll know whether it works or not after we give it a try. Sister Honglian, we have plenty of time before Madam Xiang comes out."

After a period of passionate lovemaking, Mo Juren and Honglian sat cross-legged opposite each other, with their magic power circulating back and forth between their hands. The efficiency of their dual cultivation of Yin and Yang was several times higher than before.

Honglian said happily,
"It turns out that Brother Zhang Tie's cultivation has improved again. I didn't expect that he would break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining so quickly. He is at the same level as Honglian."

Dual cultivation is different from the practice of gathering and replenishing. When both parties have similar strength, it is most effective to use the same yin and yang to enhance each other's magic power.

Now that their powers were completely connected, both sides knew the situation of each other's internal veins clearly. Mo Juren took the opportunity to ask,
"Sister Honglian, when did you reach the ninth level of Qi Refining? Did your master, Granny Jinhua, tell you how to build your foundation in the future?"
