Chapter 151: The Unfinished Path to Building a Knowledge System for Spiritual Medicine
Characteristics of spiritual power, characteristics of spiritual power.
The reason why it is called "characteristics" instead of something like nature spiritual power or spiritual power nature is because of the word "special".
Obviously, although spirituality contains all the information structure of things, it only manifests the characteristics of one aspect!
This kind of spiritual power, when integrated into things and strengthened, will correspondingly strengthen that characteristic, thus forming countless spiritual objects in the world.
Just like the bitter grass, the characteristic of its spiritual power is bitterness, so the direction of strengthening the bitter grass is naturally to increase its bitterness.
In addition, when this characteristic spiritual power itself is damaged, it will overflow and release its own spiritual power characteristics, which will greatly promote and improve the effect on the object itself.
That is why the bitter grass is so tormenting that even monks cannot endure it.
The changes in spiritual power characteristics are naturally the changes in these characteristics.
When different spiritual power characteristics come into contact with each other, there will be different changes.
Some are added and fused, some collide and explode violently, and some are combined together peacefully, but they are not fusion. Instead, it is like simply putting two things close together.
Of course, there are more complicated ones. Just like a chemical reaction, different spiritual power characteristics combine to directly produce completely different characteristics.
Regardless of the situation, contact with spiritual characteristics will cause changes in the information structure of spiritual power.
After all, spirituality itself has the nature of transmitting and receiving information.
Once the spiritual information structure changes to a certain extent, it will naturally affect its external manifestations.
This does not mean that its internal information structure is completely fixed, it is simply biased, so the spiritual power will naturally change into energy form in this direction.
The spiritual power of medicinal properties obviously belongs to this category. It seems to have clear characteristics and can greatly enhance the medicinal properties of spiritual medicines.
However, the information within it is mixed and it does not form a complete whole at all.
Such an information structure is naturally extremely fragile. Once impacted by external information, the internal information structure becomes disrupted and alienated spiritual power appears.
If Xia Xian wants to solve this problem, he naturally has the ability to do so now, but the problem is that Xia Xian only has this ability now, which does not mean that the difficulty is lower.
If he really wants to solve it directly, given Xia Xian's current knowledge, it will obviously take a lot of time.
That's why he decided to build up the knowledge system of spiritual medicine first. As long as a complete knowledge system is built, solving related problems will naturally become much simpler.
Given a goal, simply integrate it into the knowledge system and you will have a rough result.
The construction of a knowledge system greatly improves one's ability to master knowledge.
But the problem was that when Xia Xian was confidently preparing to build a spiritual medicine knowledge system, he soon ran into difficulties, and then he kept getting stuck and was unable to get started.
He still thought it was a bit simple.
As for spiritual medicine, isn't it just about combining drugs together to refine the desired medicinal properties?
A little more, wouldn't it be better if we could consider the changes in spiritual power when refining spiritual objects?
But Xia Xian soon discovered that talking about medicine is easy to say, but if you look around, what is there in the world that cannot be used as medicine?
In other words, all spiritual objects and all spiritual properties in the world can be incorporated into the spiritual medicine knowledge system!
Even Xia Xian was troubled for a moment when faced with such a huge object.
Xia Xian had no idea for a moment, and it was not time to waste, so he simply reorganized the knowledge about the characteristics of spiritual power and devoted some of his brainpower to looking for inspiration.
He currently has no shortcomings in terms of knowledge accumulation, the problem is that he has not found the breakthrough yet.
Just like the research on the nature of spiritual power, the previous accumulation of knowledge about the characteristics of spiritual power was actually sufficient, but the key was never found.
However, once the key point is realized, the accumulated knowledge immediately comes in handy, and one can quickly combine this knowledge and explore in a deeper direction.
And it's not something that you can understand just by saying it, or that any random guess you make will be correct.
Even if an idea seems reasonable, you have to substitute it into existing knowledge and try it out to determine whether it is correct.
But oftentimes, most of the ideas that Xia Xian brainstorms are actually wrong.
Although these ideas are also divergent thinking based on the knowledge he has accumulated, they are strongly related to the knowledge he has mastered, and can even be verified to be correct based on a part of the knowledge.
But once you look at it in conjunction with other knowledge, it is not correct.
This conjecture is obviously very one-sided. It seems that it can integrate some knowledge, but in fact it is not of much use.
As long as the core point of a type of knowledge is found and all such knowledge is completely connected together, Xia Xian can have a deeper grasp of this knowledge.
When you use this knowledge later, you can also start directly from the essence and get answers more quickly and accurately.
However, such correct perception is obviously not something that can be achieved easily.
After all, what Xia Xian wants now is not an in-depth study of existing knowledge, but a kind of mental cognition.
As for building a knowledge system of spiritual medicines, he has not yet realized the specific starting point to connect them all together.
He even already had the knowledge to this point, but he just hadn't found a way to put it to direct use.
And this is not a problem that can be solved by just a little bit of brainpower.
Even if you have more brain power and think faster, a problem that a little brain power will overlook will still be overlooked again and again even if a hundred points of brain power are used to repeatedly sort out the knowledge.
So he just devoted a little more brain power.
In other words, there are still 98 points of brain power left in his mind for studying and researching. Now that he has not found a breakthrough in building a spiritual medicine knowledge system, Xia Xian will not be idle.
First, go over the existing knowledge several times and sort it out in more detail, thinking that you may find a breakthrough directly in the process. On the other hand, you should also do some preliminary preparation work first.
Once a breakthrough is found later, this knowledge system can be built quickly and directly.
Taking some time now can also save some time later.
Moreover, Xia Xian also knew that everything can be used as medicine. At present, the combination of medicinal materials is still limited to the spiritual objects that exist in the Heliu Forest and its surrounding areas.
There are even many spiritual objects that he has not used as medicine to explore how they can be used as medicine.
The main thing actually depends on the elixirs that the uncle-master has studied and that can be used as medicine.
Everything can be used as medicine, and spiritual objects also have their own spiritual properties and characteristics.
However, if you want to use it as medicine, it is not enough to just understand these two points about the spiritual object itself. What is mainly needed is the medicinal properties of the spiritual object.
To put it simply, medicinal properties refer to the effects and influences that spiritual objects will have on the human body after being used on it.
This is not only a characteristic of the spiritual creature itself, but mainly depends on the reaction of humans as the recipient.
Of course, since Xia Xian has knowledge of the human body, the characteristics of spiritual objects themselves and their spiritual power, as well as understanding of the medicinal properties of a large number of spiritual objects, he actually has corresponding formulas that can deduce the specific medicinal properties of spiritual objects.
As for those miraculous medicines that were researched, the main research process was not a random combination, but was derived step by step.
First of all, you need to know what kind of elixir you want, that is, you need to know what kind of physical reaction you need.
Then, Xia Xian can deduce the required medicinal properties, and then deduce what the characteristics of the spiritual object with the required medicinal properties should be.
Finally, based on the characteristics of the spiritual object you need and the formula for the change of spiritual power characteristics, you can deduce which characteristics of existing spiritual objects need to be combined to obtain this characteristic.
In this way, the recipe for refining the required elixir is roughly completed.
However, since we don't understand its true nature, we naturally cannot guarantee that it is completely correct.
Therefore, after deriving the formula for refining the required elixir, it is natural to then refine it, and then make certain fine adjustments based on its effects.
Generally speaking, the elixir formula that Xia Xian relied entirely on deduction was basically correct, at least most of it was correct.
Even if there are some deviations, the adjustments required are not many and can be made quickly.
Before, Xia Xian relied on Fang Ming and Liu Qingmei to test the medicine, and made adjustments based on the effects of the elixir they described.
Although it is a drug trial and seems a bit dangerous, it is rogue to talk about the medicinal properties without discussing the dosage. In fact, there is no danger in itself.
After all, as cultivators, even if they do not have the same strong body control as Xia Xian, they can still clearly detect all the subtle reactions of their own bodies.
Therefore, there is no need to use a large dose of the elixir, even just less than a drop.
The weak physical reaction didn't even make them clear what such a reaction meant.
It's like a brain tonic, but just a small amount, and they feel that this area is cool, that area is numb, and that area is a little hot.
They do not have a complete knowledge system of the human body, so naturally they do not understand what these reactions mean.
But as a tool, it is completely sufficient.
Therefore, Xia Xian can completely rely on analyzing and deducing in his mind to know the specific medicinal properties of a spiritual object, and there will basically be no deviation.
The difficulty is that although Xia Xian has solutions to these problems, they are not simple problems that can be solved with just a thought!
