Chapter 139 Understanding the Way of the Five Elements
The Enlightenment Seed is just a legendary existence in Wuhuangzhou.
In all the ancient books, it only appeared once ten thousand years ago....
And after ten thousand years, there are only rumors about that person...
So no one knows what other functions this Enlightenment Seed has besides being very beneficial for alchemy, refining, array formation, etc.
It is only known that the ancient books describe that obtaining the Enlightenment Seed depends entirely on one's own chance, and others cannot take it away by force.
"Forget it, ignore it for now."
The Enlightenment Seed in Xiao Fan's body has returned to its previous state, motionless, without any reaction.
Xiao Fan put his eyes on the alchemy furnace, he wanted to continue refining the alchemy...
Pick up a piece of wood attribute spirit stone again, pour in spiritual power, this time there is no absorption of the Enlightenment Seed in the body, the whole process is very smooth.
The wood element in the spirit stone is activated, emitting a green light.
Xiao Fan threw the wood attribute spirit stone into the fire. .
Xiao Fan observed carefully.
This time the flame is different from the previous two times...
When fire meets fire, it will burn more fiercely...
When water meets fire, they counteract each other, and the fire will be extinguished.
When wood meets fire, the fire actually gradually increases in a gentle way...
It is not a violent way to increase instantly, but a very gentle and slow way to gradually increase bit by bit, and it lasts for a long time...
"Is this what wood produces fire..."
Xiao Fan murmured, and the enlightenment in his body trembled unconsciously...
Xiao Fan felt that his mind became clearer...
"The five elements counteract each other, but it is only the counteraction of the same realm... And the five elements generate each other, not one plus one, but a gentle and continuous way..."
Unconsciously, Xiao Fan himself understood the principles contained in the five elements.
Although this understanding is very simple, it is something that most cultivators find difficult to understand in their lifetime.
Unlike oral preaching and studying ancient books, it is a true understanding of the deep meaning.
All things in the world are within the five elements.
Every blade of grass, every grain of sand, every spark of fire, every morning dew and drizzle...
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Fan even understood the truth that even people who were several levels higher than him would never understand in their lifetime.
And this understanding played a vital role in his growth in the future.
......
Continue to refine the elixir. If the fire is not strong enough, add the best spirit stone of fire attribute...
If you want to stabilize the fire, add the best spirit stone of wood attribute...
If you think the fire is too strong, add the spirit stone of water attribute...
This kind of extravagant way of refining the elixir is probably only he in the Kyushu Continent can do it.
During the period, he used various best spirit stones to control the size of the fire, and he needed to continuously inject spiritual power into the spirit stone to activate its internal attribute elements.
It was also a very good practice for him.
In this way of using the best spirit stones to burn fire, Xiao Fan's control over the fire was improving rapidly without him realizing it...
After a night, Xiao Fan was sweating profusely in the star map. He felt that he was a little overwhelmed...
With the continuous infusion of spiritual power, his body had been hollowed out...
It was no different from a big battle.
"I have failed more than fifty furnaces. I don't believe I can fail again this time..."
Xiao Fan's tone was unwilling... He had refined more than fifty furnaces that night, but none of them succeeded.
If it was another alchemy apprentice like this...
I'm afraid he would have broken his legs and been kicked out. More than fifty furnaces of medicinal materials... That would be a lot of spirit stones.
Even if it was the medicinal materials needed to refine a first-grade elixir, that would be a lot of spirit stones.
But Xiao Fan didn't care about these at all.
Top-grade spirit stones fuel the fire, and there is an unlimited supply of top-grade medicinal materials...
If he hadn't known that alchemy needed to be done step by step, he would have even wanted to try refining a third-grade elixir directly...
This time, Xiao Fan was very careful and kept the fire stable, neither too big nor too small, neither too anxious nor too impatient...
Then he put in the medicinal materials for refining the Qi-boosting elixir one by one.
After a night of continuous refining, he was already familiar with these.
"This time it must be successful..."
Xiao Fan murmured, with a gleam in his eyes...
Focus on refining this furnace of elixir meticulously.
Green smoke billowed out of the bronze elixir furnace, but Xiao Fan didn't rush and continued to add spirit herbs to control the fire.
"Boom"...
A loud noise came from the bronze elixir furnace.
And this time, Xiao Fan's face was ecstatic, and it was green smoke that kept coming out, not black smoke.
That proved that the elixir refining process had been successful, and the last loud noise came out, indicating that the elixir was refined.
Xiao Fan couldn't wait to open it. A furnace of pills didn't explode in the middle of the process, or emit black smoke to prove that he had failed in refining.
Everything was normal, but at the end of the refining, failure often occurred after the furnace was opened.
"Plop" "Plop"
Xiao Fan's heartbeat accelerated. Even if he won the first place in the outer sect selection competition, he was not as excited as he is now.
These are two different feelings, and they are his progress in another field.
From an ignorant newbie, he has reached the point of whether he can refine a first-grade pill.
The bronze pill furnace opened.
Five pills lay quietly inside, four of which were already cracked and full of cracks.
The remaining one exuded a burst of medicinal fragrance.
"It's done!!"
