Chapter 125: The star chart Stirs Again

Jiang Yushan held a very high status within the entire Jixian Sect.

Although he was only an Outer Sect Elder, even the typical Inner Sect Elders had to be polite upon seeing him, not daring to show the slightest neglect…

Furthermore, his attainments in Alchemy were even more astonishing; he was the second greatest Alchemist of the Jixian Sect.

A Rank Four Alchemist!

Among the Disciples present, most hoped to catch Jiang Yushan's eye.

Hoping he would give them some guidance in the future, even if they only became nominal disciples.

To be able to achieve something in the field of Alchemy meant having a limitless future, regardless of one's cultivation level.

Jiang Yushan's standards were so high that ordinary people could not enter his Dharma Eye at all, and he had never officially taken a Disciple in many years.

"What I will be discussing with everyone this time is the control of heat in Alchemy."

Jiang Yushan's voice was very loud, like a clap of thunder, spreading in all directions.

Xiao Fan had originally thought that those in the back might not be able to hear clearly…

But looking at it now, there was no need for such concerns at all…

Then why did he call him to the front?

Xiao Fan grumbled a bit in his heart, but it was just a passing thought; he still waited attentively for Jiang Yushan to continue.

"When performing Alchemy, mastering the heat is extremely important. I'm sure even those who have never touched Alchemy should understand this…"

"The quality of heat control determines whether a Medicinal Pill can be successfully refined, as well as its effectiveness and rank upon completion."

"Furthermore, there is a crucial point: the heat control determines whether a phenomenon like a furnace explosion will occur during the Alchemy process…"

Jiang Yushan stood on the platform, explaining step by step…

His expression was very arrogant…

Xiao Fan could see that Jiang Yushan's mastery of the Alchemic Dao was indeed very deep.

Medicinal Pills are divided into ranks; Rank One is the lowest, and Rank Nine is the highest.

However, even among Medicinal Pills of the same rank, quality and efficacy also matter.

These correspond to four grades of quality: Low, Medium, High, and Perfect.

For the same Medicinal Pill, the difference in medicinal effect is vast depending on the quality.

"However, what I am going to tell you now is the heat control required when adding Spiritual Plants and Spirit Medicines at each stage…"

"Depending on the desired effect of the Medicinal Pill being refined, some complex pills may even require hundreds or thousands of Materials to produce…"

"And every material has a different heat tolerance…"

Everyone listened intently; in fact, this statement was very easy to understand.

Different Materials…

For example, paper ignites as soon as it touches fire…

Whereas steel requires a raging fire to be forged.

"Therefore, throughout the entire refining process, the addition of Materials must be based on their different attributes and tolerances, assessing the situation and mastering the heat at that time…"

…

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed…

It had to be said that Jiang Yushan taught very seriously, allowing Xiao Fan to learn many things while listening…

Although he had read many ancient Alchemy books left within the star chart.

However, what was recorded in them was relatively high-end Alchemy knowledge; he had not encountered the things Jiang Yushan was talking about before.

At the same time, many aspects of the Alchemy knowledge Jiang Yushan shared also differed from the ancient books he had read.

For example…

Jiang Yushan said that during Alchemy, one needs to flexibly control the heat according to the different medicinal herbs; this point was indeed correct.

In the ancient books he had read, it was recorded that when encountering Spiritual Plants or Spirit Medicines that are difficult to refine, or when one cannot be sure of their ability to control the heat properly…

One could use a Secret Technique called the Spirit Protection Technique to protect the Spirit Medicines and Spiritual Plants.

Simply put, it involves splitting one's Divine Sense into two parts: one to control the fire for Alchemy, and the other to use spiritual power to protect the Materials inside from being damaged, keeping them in their optimal state.

After the stars shattered previously, this Spirit Protection Technique for Alchemy was among the many books.

And although this Spirit Protection Technique is a Secret Technique…

It can only be used by those with a powerful Divine Sense.

At that time, Xiao Fan was still wondering why this Spirit Protection Technique was created…

Now, after hearing Jiang Yushan's explanation, he finally understood.

At this moment, the star chart within Xiao Fan's chest vibrated once again…

"Hmm?"

Xiao Fan's brow twitched. A change had occurred yesterday, and it was happening again today?

Originally, Jiang Yushan was lecturing here, and he wanted to listen attentively.

But by comparison, entering the star chart was more important.

Furthermore, for Xiao Fan to enter the star chart, he only needed to close his eyes and let his Divine Sense enter; nothing else was required.

No one would be able to notice anything amiss.

Slowly closing his eyes, Xiao Fan's Divine Sense entered the star chart.

At this time, the stars filled the sky within the star chart, shining brightly…

And among the many starlights, one star emitting a faint blue light was flashing rapidly…

"This is…"
