After returning from the peach forest, Mu Qingge had Yuhe and Huayue guard the gate of Shouyuan well, not allowing anyone to come in and disturb her. Three meals a day were all sent into her room, and then came to clean up afterwards.

  In a small room in the annex of the Mu Qingge House, three walls were filled with medicine cabinets.

  Each drawer is labeled with the name of a herb.

  In the middle of the room stands a tripod medicine cauldron, and there is also a long table that can be used for dividing medicines and making preparations before refining medicines.

  Mù Qīng Gē stood in this room, looked around and nodded satisfactorily.

  In the inheritance of Dan Shen, learning to refine Dan is first and foremost about mastering the most basic medicine refining techniques.

  Take different quantities of herbs, follow the steps of Dan Fang, rely on spiritual power to assist, and refine through the alchemical furnace. Only when you have refined ten furnaces, obtained ten furnaces, and the medicinal powder is completely intact without any loss, can it be considered that you have grasped the basic steps of refining elixirs.

  Only by doing well in this step can one be considered to have taken the first step into alchemy, and attempt to refine low-grade elixirs.

  So-called low-grade elixirs are basically similar to what Mu Qingge once understood as golden medicinal pills, blood-activating powders and the like. If you want to put it more vividly, they're like the cold medicines and digestive enzymes that every household used to have on hand in their past lives.

  Low-grade elixirs are not commonly seen in Qin State, although they have a low rank and general use. In fact, there are more medicinal soups and medicines in Qin State than elixirs.

  Because the Qin state had almost no alchemists, only a few people were supported by the imperial family and large families to refine elixirs. The refined ones were all mid-to-low-grade elixirs, with more low-grade elixirs and fewer mid-grade elixirs.

  At first, Muxiong took out the dan medicine that saved Mulight Song. In Qin Guo, no one would be able to refine it, let alone possess it.

  Everything was ready, Mu Qingge stretched lazily, as if preparing to show off his skills.

  She turned around and looked at Moyang, who had arranged everything in the dark, and said: "This thing is done well, but remember to keep it secret, not even Lao Yezi can be told."

  "Yes." Mo Yang nodded without any hesitation.

  In terms of obeying Mutsuki's orders, he does better than Osamu and Hanabi.

  With a wave of her hand, Mu Qing sang: "You go down first, I didn't call you, don't come in no matter what happens."

  Mo Yang responded with a sound, turned around and left the room, closing the door behind him.

  The room was filled with all sorts of herbal smells, which made Mu Qingge extremely uncomfortable. But in the end, she still endured it.

  "Isn't it just about refining medicine and making elixirs? I don't believe it's that difficult!" Mu Qingge stretched her limbs and walked towards the long table, starting to recall the foundational knowledge passed down through her family.

  "First pick medicine, separate medicine, weigh, grind, and finally refine!"

  After memorizing the steps of alchemy, Mu Qingge rolled up her sleeves and got started!

  She was refining the simplest Qing Xin San.

  The effect of this medicine is to calm the mind and quiet the spirit, with a sedative effect. Similar to the calming effect of incense from past lives.

  Thanks to the blessing of Dan God's inheritance, she didn't need to rack her brains to remember those countless medicinal herbs' appearances and various effects, mutual promotion and mutual restraint. Those most basic pharmacological knowledge were all engraved in her mind, and she couldn't forget them even if she wanted to.

  It can be said that if someone were to compete with Mu Qingge in recognizing herbs at this time, even the most powerful alchemist on Linchuan Continent would not be able to surpass her.

  However, if it's about refining medicine and concocting elixirs, any ordinary apprentice can defeat her.

  She took out the herbs for refining Qingxin San from the medicine cabinet and carefully sorted and arranged them one by one, her mind clear and focused.

  Then, carefully pick out the mixed grass dust and some underdeveloped medicinal herbs.

  After picking up and dividing the medicine, it's time to start weighing.

  In this tedious process, Mu Qing Ge sighed in her heart: Refining medicine and making elixirs is indeed a task that combines physical and mental strength. The most important thing is that you have to be able to endure loneliness.

  Because this process is really too boring!

  Her lips pursed tightly, Mu Qing carefully measured out the last dose of herbs on the scale.

  Everything has been prepared for this period, and three hours have passed since then.

  After finishing the meal sent by Zhong Tuyou, Mu Qingge sat cross-legged in front of the brazier to meditate.

  According to the Dan Shen tradition, it is not easy to refine different herbs into powder and blend them together. Because of their different properties, if one is not careful, they will collide and counteract each other, causing the furnace to explode and resulting in failure to refine the medicine.

  And this step must rely on spiritual power to guide, in order to complete. To extend one's own spiritual power into the dan furnace, to coordinate the intense collision between different medicinal powders, and to guide them to dissolve together.

  So, Mochi must take care of her spirit before taking the next step and accept the challenge.

  After a stick of incense, Mu Qingge gently opened her eyes. Her clear and transparent pupils flashed with a hint of sharpness, and at this moment, her spiritual energy was full, and she had made all the preparations for alchemy.

  She took out a packet of Qingxin San and placed it in front of her, then Mu Qingsong opened the lid of the dan furnace.

  Pull out the fire starter and throw it into the fire pit under the dan furnace.

  Suddenly——the dry firewood and kerosene already placed inside ignited.

  Orange flames shot up, tongues of fire licking the bottom of the censer.

  Feeling the dan furnace gradually warming up, Mu Qingge threw the first batch of herbs into the dan furnace.

  Spiritual power is a very elusive thing. Those who can feel it naturally know what it is, while those who cannot feel it cannot understand what it is no matter how others describe it.

  For Mu Qing Ge, spiritual power was not unfamiliar.

  A spiritual force as transparent as a silkworm's silk quietly extended from her brow, stretched towards the alchemy furnace, entered it, and transformed into a small hand like an infant's, manipulating the medicinal herbs inside the furnace...
