BXBX NOVEL Chapter 166 - 126: Third Level of Alchemy
In the alchemy room.
Lu Yun controlled the heat while adding spirit herbs to the alchemy furnace.
According to the process of refining Qi Combining Pills, the first thing to be put in was a large amount of True Heart Grass. True Heart Grass was the main energy source of Qi Combining Pills. However, because it grew in dry climates with frequent sunlight, its properties were relatively dry. It needed to be refined together with Moon Glow Grass to prevent the medicinal properties from easily dissipating…
Lu Yun refined and purified the spirit herbs according to the Qi Combining Pill recipe and their properties, ultimately fusing them together and condensing them into pills.
Within two hours, a rich pill fragrance wafted out.
Looking at the pure white Meridian Pill in his hand, with a faint pill pattern on its surface, Lu Yun showed a slight smile. After examining it, he threw it directly into his mouth.
[+4 Energy Value]
Indeed, as long as it is a Second Grade pill, it can be converted into energy values.
However, the final transformed energy value seemed different. Although both were excellent pills with pill patterns, the energy value converted from Qi Combining Pill was lower than that of Meridian Pill.
Lu Yun glanced at a pure white stone in the upper right corner, smiled slightly, and immediately began refining pills again.
This time, he did not plan to refine them one by one because the speed was too slow. It would take an incredibly long time to refine fifty portions of Qi Combining Pills.
After all, the distribution of Qi Combining Pill materials by Bright Sun Palace was based on one furnace of pills per portion.
Pure Yang aggressive aura moved, and a total of ten True Heart Grasses on a table beside him flew into the furnace. The raging earth fire burned, visibly refining the herbs at a fast pace, and the medicinal properties began to evaporate.
At this moment, several Moon Glow Grasses flew into the furnace, pulling back the evaporating medicinal properties.
Refinement, purification…
Refining a furnace of Qi Combining Pills all at once took more time.
It also required more careful and cautious handling, because, during the fusion of so many spiritual liquids, the powerful energy collision would make the furnace explode easily.
Luckily, Lu Yun’s spiritual power was far stronger than that of martial artists of the same level. His control of pure yang aggressive aura reached an extremely fine level, making the handling process very smooth. At the moment of fusion, the powerful energy collision was suppressed by him.
Time slowly passed, and suddenly a rich pill fragrance escaped from the furnace. The fragrance was much stronger than when he had refined pills individually.
As Lu Yun controlled the alchemy furnace’s temperature, it changed continuously. The temperature slowly rose, then gradually decreased after about ten minutes.
“Come out!”
At the critical moment, Lu Yun shouted loudly and waved his sleeve, causing the furnace lid to fly off with a bang. Ten bright white lights soared into the sky, appearing instantaneously in the alchemy room.
As they were about to scatter in all directions, they were controlled by a force and floated slowly in front of Lu Yun.
Lu Yun saw the twelve plump, round Qi Combining Pills with pure white bodies turning in front of him.
On three of the Qi Combining Pills, there was an incomparably pure white and crystal-clear luster, each with a pill pattern.
“A success rate of 100%, an excellent rate of 30%, not bad.”
Lu Yun muttered to himself, and with a slight movement of his right hand, the light of nine pills flashed and entered two prepared jade bottles.
As for the remaining pill, he put it into his mouth.
[+4 Energy Value]
Refining such a furnace of Qi Combining Pills consumed a lot of spiritual power and Pure Yang aggressive aura. Even with the Remembering Stone, Lu Yun dared to take them openly.
After a short rest, Lu Yun continued refining.
In just under five days, Lu Yun had refined all fifty portions of the Qi Combining Pill materials.
Leaving the alchemy room, he went to Bright Sun Palace.
“Steward Feng, 1 have finished refining the pills. Please take a look.”
Lu Yun waved his sleeve, and forty-three bottles of Qi Combining Pills appeared on the counter.
Steward Feng looked at the jade bottles that almost filled the entire counter and was a bit dumbfounded for a moment.
“There… there are so many?”
Lu Yun nodded and smiled. “There should have been more, but 1 consumed some partway through because of excessive consumption. This shouldn’t be a big problem, right?”
“No problem, no problem.” Steward Feng began to open the jade bottles one by one and inspect them.
In the first jade bottle, there were ten plump, round, pure white Qi Combining Pills.
The second jade bottle was the same.
So was the thirty-fifth.
When he opened the thirty-sixth jade bottle, his pupils suddenly dilated. A faint pill fragrance wafted out, and the ten pills lying in the jade bottle had pure white bodies, emitting a crystal-clear luster.
Steward Feng carefully poured them out. The ten plump and round pills had faint halos on them, looking like beautiful pieces of art.
They felt extremely smooth and comfortable to the touch.
“Pill patterns, all of them have pill patterns!”
Steward Feng put the pills back into the jade bottle excitedly and said, “Incredible, simply incredible. Alchemist Lu just passed the Second Grade Alchemist examination and can already refine excellent-quality Qi Combining Pills with pill patterns. It’s really admirable.”
“Steward Feng, there are a few more bottles you haven’t checked yet,” Lu Yun said with a light laugh.
“Indeed, indeed.”
Steward Feng calmed his excited emotions and continued to inspect the next bottle.
As expected, his emotions were once again stirred up.
“This bottle is full of excellent pills, too!”
He opened another bottle, and it was also full of excellent pills.
Steward Feng was now speechless to describe his emotions..
