First Potion

"Now I will explain to you about the equipment needed and how to use it" said Grand Master Isnu

"But keep in mind the method of making drugs that we will do is an alloy of the methods of making ancient drugs with modern drug manufacturing methods"

"With this the success rate of making drugs becomes greater" continued Professor Isnu explained

"By using modern scientific methods, the method of making drugs starts from determining the dose of the drug material, then purifying the drug material, and the last step unites the essence of each drug ingredient"

"First we have to determine the right dose of medicinal ingredients for that we will use this weighing tool" said Professor Isnu while showing the tool in question

"The next thing is to purify the medicinal ingredients, not all the medicinal ingredients we can use, we will only take the essence of the medicinal ingredients which amount to at least five to ten percent of the medicinal ingredients"

"To purify medicinal ingredients we can use a variety of tools, if in the past an alchemist would use a medicinal furnace to help purify medicinal ingredients, he said, but this method required alchemists to have huge deposits of qi and powerful soul and mind control techniques"

"The method is less efficient and the success rate is also low"

"By using modern equipment that has been slightly modified will increase the success and also not spend as much qi as the ancient method"

"The way to use this tool is to put the drug ingredients into the test tube and then add pure water or aquades according to the dose, then put the energy crystals on the device under the test tube, put the qi energy into the device, after which a fire will appear that will heat the drug material in the test tube"

Pure water or aquades is water obtained from ordinary water distillation. Aquades are composed of Hydrogen and Oxygen without any additional substances. Aquades are commonly used in the laboratory as solvents or other materials.

"Each drug ingredient has a different heat to be able to make it melt, this is called the melting point"

"In order to produce a temperature that is in accordance with the melting point needed by the drug material is to control the amount of qi inserted into this device, the greater the qi inserted will be the higher the temperature produced"

"But not only that, it also takes control on the amount of qi channeled to remain stable, not up and down to arrive, this is the most difficult to do"

"The melted medicinal material will evaporate and flow through this pipe" Grand Master Isnu said as he pointed out the piece of equipment he mentioned

"Since each part of the medicinal ingredients has a different liquid point then by itself the impurities and essence of the medicinal ingredients will separate and then will be accommodated in this container container"

"After we get the essence of the new medicinal ingredients then we will mix with the essence of the other medicinal ingredients"

"One type of medicine consists of several essence medicinal ingredients which are then made into one"

"To unify the essence of medicinal ingredients we use this tool called a unification furnace"

"The way to use it is the same as using a distillation tool earlier we only need to insert energy crystals and then channel qi into this tool"

"The right temperature will unite some of the essence of the medicinal ingredients into a medicinal solution called a potion, and this we can already use"

"But if we want to increase the effectiveness of the drug solution earlier we can turn it into a medicinal pill"

"How to drain qi energy directly into the drug solution to make it solid"

"If it works then we will get some medicinal pills" said Grand Master Isnu

"Here is my son understood?" ask the Great Teacher Isnu

"So according to the most important student of the explanation of the Great Teacher was about the control or control of qi that we channel" said Arya

"We have to keep the qi we distribute stable during the process" he continued

"Yes .. yes it is so, it means that your child has understood the essence of this process" said Professor Isnu

Grand Master Isnu was very satisfied with Aryan understanding when this was his first lesson in medicine making.

"In order for you to better understand this process then it should be directly practiced"

"This is a basic energy potion medicine recipe, try to make it" Grand Master Isnu said as he handed over a piece of prescription medicine paper

Arya accepted the recipe and then read it. Then Arya collected the ingredients of the medicinal ingredients according to the prescription record.

Arya started taking the medicinal ingredients from the storage rack. After everything is collected Arya compiles according to the order in which it is prescribed. Furthermore, Arya weighs the ingredients of the drug to take the drug ingredients in accordance with the dose specified in the prescription.

Then Arya took a special bowl commonly used to smooth the medicine. The ingredients of the drug are smoothed one by one with the aim of making it easier to melt when inserted into the test tube.

Arya took out her crystal stone and put it in the heating device. After that Arya prepared to turn on the device by channeling her qi. Arya took a few deep breaths and tried to calm herself down to focus more.

Slowly, Aryan land began to channel his qi into the tool. Little by little Arya added the qi she channeled. After feeling that the qi that is being flowed is enough, Arya starts to concentrate to keep the qi that is being flowed remains stable.

The water in the test tube starts to boil and gradually begins to evaporate. The water vapor then flows through the cooling pipe and condenses in two separate containers. One container contains parts of unneeded medicinal ingredients or called impurities, another container contains the essence of medicinal ingredients.

In one experiment Arya successfully purified the medicinal ingredients to obtain its essence. Arya's body was filled with sweat because she had tried very hard to maintain her focus and concentration so that the flowed qi remained stable.

Arya felt that her body was very tired, even though this was the first ingredient, there were still some more ingredients that had to be purified.

"If your body feels tired to rest first and then continue" said Grand Master Isnu

"It is not good to force yourself, and if forced then the result will be less than perfect" continued Professor Isnu

"Murid listened" Arya replied and then took a break

"Only one trial and he has managed to purify the medicinal ingredients, this child is really something" said Grand Master Isnu who did not stop admiring Arya

After resting for a while Arya continued to purify the next medicinal ingredient. Arya repeated the step of refining the previous medicinal ingredients, after successfully refining the medicinal ingredients then Arya would rest for a while. It is then repeated until all the medicinal ingredients are successfully purified.

Arya felt her body was very tired. For that Arya asked permission to the Grand Master Isnu to restore himself briefly as well as Arya intends to absorb qi energy to replace the qi energy that has been used.

Arya took her place in the corner of the room, then sat cross-legged on the floor. Arya took out her crystal stone. Furthermore, Arya used the technique obtained from the Sastrajendra Book to absorb qi energy from energy crystals.

"What!!!!. .. This child has been able to master the Nine Aji technique even though it is only the first part only" murmured the Great Master Isnu surprised

"It's only natural that his level is high enough than that of a child his age"

Half an hour passed, Arya finished absorbing the energy crystals. Arya felt her body return refreshed and the qi energy within her dantian had already been replenished.

"Stay the last step, uniting all the essence of the medicinal ingredients into one solution" Arya said in her heart

"Murid has prepared the Great Master" said Arya

"Yes do it" said Grand Master Isnu, nodding his head

Arya mixed all the medicinal ingredients essence into one container. Re-ignite the heater by flowing qi energy into it. Arya continues to flow qi until it reaches the specified temperature. Arya keep the flow of qi so that the temperature remains stable, then Arya drain the qi into a solution of medicinal essence. Both must be done simultaneously, making it difficult to do. It requires focus and concentration. Just a little mistake then the potion will fail to form.

Sweat began to appear, Arya tried hard to keep her focus and concentration.

"It is really difficult to have to control two qi flows at the same time" Arya murmured

The medicinal solution inside the glass container began to boil and slowly turned slightly bluish in color. In the high temperature slowly several different medicinal ingredient essences began to coalesce. The qi energy flowing into it was absorbed by the essence of the medicinal ingredients and aided in its binding process.

The qi energy that is channeled into the qi must be sufficiently large that it must not be lacking. Because if less the unification process becomes longer even most likely to fail. And the resulting potion is of low quality with little qi content.

Another half hour of time passed and finally Arya managed to make her first potion. Looks bright blue potion solution with a little light in the glass container.

"Ah I succeeded" said Arya happily despite feeling that her body was very tired

"This kid managed to make a high-quality energy potion on his first try" said Professor Isnu

"Happy sonda, this is a good start for you on your way to becoming an alchemist" said Grand Master Isnu

"Thank you Great Master, all of this is thanks to the guidance from the Great Master" Arya said

"Furthermore children need to train more by making some other types of potions, only after that start making medicinal pills" said Professor Isnu

"Don't rush, just strengthen the foundation first" continued Professor Isnu

"Murid listened to the Great Master" Arya said

From the first experiment Arya managed to produce a potion solution of fifty milliliters which was then divided into five parts of ten milliliters each and put into a special container made of glass.
