Chapter 944 Four-Pin Elixir
A week has passed.

During this week, Chen Ziang successfully memorized the properties and names of all the medicinal materials in the valley, and at the same time got along well with those monsters of the Fighting King level and above.

Sometimes Chen Ziang would secretly leave some of the dregs left over from the master's refining medicine, and distribute them to those monsters when he was not paying attention. Those monsters were more attractive to the dregs of medicine than Chen Ziang imagined. Slag, he has become the boss of those monsters.

"Boss, is there any medicine left today?" Little Tiger asked beside Chen Ziang, licking his tongue.

"Go, go, didn't I just give it to you an hour ago? He will suspect me of stealing too many medicinal residues." Chen Ziang was currently digging for the medicinal materials that Ji Qiu needed for refining medicine today in the medicinal field.

"That's right, you greedy ghost," said a little boa constrictor.

Xiaolu said, "It's also thanks to the boss who stole the medicine residue for us, otherwise how could we get so much?"

"Shh, the master is here"

At this time, Ji Qiu came over from a distance, and asked curiously, "I heard you talking all the way away, what are you mumbling about?"

"It's nothing." All the monsters swarmed away, fearing that Ji Qiu would discover the secret between them and Chen Ziang.

"Apprentice, are you familiar with the medicinal materials in the valley?"

"I'm familiar with everything," Chen Ziang replied confidently.

Ji Qiu nodded, "Actually, this is far from enough. The Dou Qi Continent is incomparably huge. Some medicinal materials and even humans have not given them names, and we still need us alchemists to discover them."

"Disciple understands"

Chen Ziang didn't think so long-term. He just wanted to improve his medicine refining skills as soon as possible, and then complete the tasks on this plane.

"Okay, take these herbs and come with me."

Ji Qiu took Chen Ziang to the place where he usually made alchemy, and he had specially cleared this area for the cauldron furnace.

"Master, you have prepared all the medicinal materials you need for alchemy today, but the grade of these medicinal materials is very low today, and you should not be able to make any high-level elixirs." Chen Ziang said, according to his judgment, these medicinal materials can be refined into four grades at most Medicinal pills, and Ji Qiu usually disdained to refine pills of this level.

"Of course, because I am not making alchemy today, but you are here," Ji Qiu said as a matter of course.

"I come?"

"It's been a while since you've been in the valley. Now that you've got a good understanding of the medicinal materials, the next step is of course to start alchemy," Ji Qiu explained.

"Great!" Chen Ziang was eager to try it. He hadn't refined medicine for a while, and he watched Ji Qiulian every day, so of course he wanted to try it too.

He immediately took out his alchemy, and was about to start refining medicine but was stopped by Ji Qiu.

"Do you know why in Mercenary City you are one step slower than Lin En even though you are better at refining medicine?" Ji Qiu asked.

"Because my medicine squirrel is not as good as his." Chen Ziang naturally knew that the gap between his medicine squirrel and Lin En's was too big. I bought this medicine squirrel when I was in Wutan City, and Lin En was the pharmacist of Caesar's mercenary group. It must be a better medicine.

With a big wave of Ji Qiu's hand, another medicine squirrel appeared in front of him. This medicine squirrel was slightly smaller than Chen Ziang's original one, but it looked more delicate. There were countless carvings on the outer body of the tripod, which was very valuable.

"This is the cauldron I used when refining medicine in the early years. It has accompanied me for many years. I will give it to you today. I hope you can make good use of it."

"Thank you, master!" Chen Zi'ang looked at the new medicine squirrel in front of him, how much he liked it. With this medicine squirrel, he would be more confident in making medicine by himself.

"Needless to say these, as long as you live up to my expectations, I'll be satisfied." After finishing speaking, Ji Qiu explained the importance of the tripod. A good medicine can make the medicinal materials in the tripod heat more evenly, and it's extremely heat-resistant. The medicine squirrel is the best partner of a pharmacist, and only if one is familiar with one's own medicine squirrel, can one refine the best elixir.

"What you are going to refine today is the [Rejuvenation Pill] you got in the Mercenary City last time. Do you remember the recipe?" Ji Qiu asked.

"Of course I remember." Chen Ziang had memorized all the Dan Fang before selling it to Lin En.

"Then let's start alchemy"

"Firemanship"

Chen Ziang first lived under the cauldron, slowly roasting the cauldron to heat it up, and then threw the medicinal materials into it in an orderly manner. The process seemed simple but there were countless details hidden.

For example, the amount of each medicinal material, the interval between medicinal materials, and the fire temperature sometimes have to be increased or decreased according to the situation. The difficulty of refining fourth-grade pills is several times more difficult than that of third-grade pills.

Sweat was already protruding from Chen Ziang's forehead. After all, this was the first time he had refined a fourth-grade elixir, and it was more complicated than all the elixirs he had refined before. In fact, he had no idea.

Under tension, because the temperature was not well controlled halfway through the refining process, all the medicinal materials in the cauldron were turned into ashes, without any value.

"I failed." Chen Ziang said with some disappointment.

"Is this your first time refining a fourth-grade elixir? I remember you said in the Mercenary City that you were a third-grade pharmacist." Ji Qiu asked.

"Yes"

"If this is your first refining, it is already very good. It seems that I was not better than you when I refined the fourth-grade elixir for the first time. At that time, I failed three times before successfully refining one. Furnace fourth-grade elixir"

After Ji Qiu's words, Chen Zi'ang knew what he knew, but at the same time it also aroused his fighting spirit. Can he refine the fourth-grade elixir within three times?If it is possible, isn't it equivalent to surpassing the master when he was young?

"Firemanship"

After raising the fire again, Chen Zi'ang started the second refinement, this time the refinement was more proficient than before, but some mistakes were made at the last moment, resulting in a fall short.

"Come again!"

Chen Ziang still didn't believe that he couldn't do it, so he started the third attempt. This time, with the experience of the previous two times, he grasped the timing of grasping the medicine and controlling the fire more accurately, and he was careful throughout the whole process, for fear that it would happen again. Failure due to a small flaw.

Gradually, the fragrance of the medicine floated out from the cauldron, indicating that the furnace pill was about to be refined soon.

Chen Ziang kept observing the Danding, and waited until the moment when the time came to stop the fire, and then he let out a long sigh of relief.

Ji Qiu took the elixir in the cauldron into his hands, observed it and confirmed, "You have succeeded. Although the quality of these elixir is only yellow rank, it is indeed a fourth-grade elixir."

Chen Ziang smiled happily. He really liked the feeling of being affirmed by others, especially this person was his master, a pharmacist with superb alchemy skills.
