Chapter 152: High-Quality Pill!

However, the excuse of traveling around was not suitable for Xu Ning.

It was obvious that he had not encountered a bottleneck like He Mingye.

If Xu Ning wanted to go out, it was better to use the excuse of carrying out a mission.

The master and disciples talked for a while longer.

Soon after, He Mingye and Xu Ning bid farewell to Mi Xingye and parted ways.

Afterwards, Xu Ning went straight to the Seven Boxers.

After returning to the Seven Boxers, Xu Ning was surprised to learn that Xiao Qiyun was back.

After thinking about Xiao Qiyun’s disappearance in the Fog Night Abyss, Xu Ning realized that the void realm junior that Xu Hujun had talked about was Xiao Qiyun.

After Xu Ning and Xiao Qiyun met, Xiao Qiyun was very grateful to Xu Ning.

Prior to this, Ning Xun and Le Caiwei had told Xiao Qiyun about Xu Ning stepping forward when the Seven Boxers was facing a crisis.

After that, Ning Xun gave Xu Ning 50 Pure Source Pills; this was Ning Xun’s promise to Xu Ning.

Although 50 Pure Source Pills was not a small amount for the Seven Boxers, they were still willing to give it

Although this amount of Pure Source Pills was not a large amount for Xu Ning, it was enough to help Xu Ning advance the Life Pill Sutra.

Immediately after that, Xu Ning went to the Materials Hall and exchanged them for some medicinal materials. He then specifically found an alchemy room.

There were some disciples in the Yuelan Sect who had learned to refine pills, and these alchemy rooms were prepared for them.

Currently, these rooms were vacant, so Xu Ning randomly chose one and walked in.

‘I’ll personally test how it feels to refine pills.’

Xu Ning was very eager to try.

Xu Ning walked into the alchemy room and closed the door behind him.

The walls and doors of an alchemy room were specially made to isolate the room from the outside world.

This was to prevent the people in the room from being affected by the outside world.

The alchemy room was decorated simply, with only a seat cushion, a small table, and a pill furnace.

The pill furnaces here were only of ordinary quality. It did not provide any substantial benefits when it came to refining pills.

Xu Ning sat on a seat cushion and took out several raw materials for the pill he was going to make.

Among them, there were ten sets of materials needed to make a Pure Source Pill and ten sets of materials needed to make a Spring Breeze Pill.

Pure Source Pills were generally used to assist in cultivation, while Spring Breeze Pills were generally used to treat injuries.

These two types of pills were ordinary pill medicine.

The reason why he refined these two types of ordinary pill was not because Xu Ning was not good enough, but because Xu Ning’s contribution points were too limited.

The contribution points Xu Ning obtained from his previous mission had been previously exchanged for all Pure Source Pills.

Xu Ning took out more than a dozen Pure Source Pills from the batch of 50 he had gotten, and he exchanged them with the Seven Boxers.

There were only ten sets of materials for each of the two pills, but Xu Ning didn’t mind.

This session of pill refinement was mainly for experience. If there was a need, he would buy a lot of raw materials in the future.

After placing the raw materials on the small table, Xu Ning took out the dao pill furnace he had gotten.

This furnace was several levels higher than the furnaces provided by the alchemy rooms.

“Let’s refine Pure Source Pills first.”

Xu Ning threw a set of materials into the furnace.

Afterwards, Xu Ning activated the pill furnace with his true qi.

There were no changes on the surface of the furnace, but strange lines started to appear on its inner walls, increasing the temperature of the furnace.

Generally speaking, a pill furnace needed to use external forces to break down the materials and condense a pill. The entire process of refining a pill required opening the pill furnace repeatedly, which was extremely cumbersome.

This was why the success rate of alchemy was relatively low.

But Xu Ning’s furnace didn’t work like this. As long as he injected true qi or attribute power, the environment in the furnace would automatically be adjusted to the most optimal state, and the process of refining pills would also be completed by the pill furnace.

The power of a dao pill furnace was incomparable to ordinary pill furnaces.

‘The raw materials for the Pure Source Pills are already melting.’

Xu Ning could clearly feel that the raw materials in the inner walls had been melted into a puddle of liquid by the power of the furnace.

Afterwards, Xu Ning activated his water and fire attribute power and activated the Life Pill Sutra, and after balancing the two, he injected them into the furnace.

According to the refinement method in the pill scroll, Xu Ning slowly extracted the essence from the medicinal liquid and boiled the raw materials into shape.

‘No wonder the water and fire attributes are the most suitable attributes for alchemy.’

Xu Ning could clearly feel that the balanced water and fire attribute power could ensure the stability of the pill formation to the greatest extent.

“Moreover, the Life Pill Sutra is indeed powerful. Not only can the Life Pill Sutra better control the power of one’s attributes and help extract the pill, but it can also gather aura into the pill furnace and use it to cleanse the pill. The pill refined this way would not only be higher in quality, but also more durable.”

Xu Ning could clearly feel this.

Wow!

From the raw materials entering the furnace to the formation of the pills, Xu Ning successfully refined a Pure Source Pill in less than a few seconds.

“Take out the pill.”

Xu Ning activated his true qi, a Pure Source Pill jumped out of the pill furnace and landed in Xu Ning’s hand.

The moment the pill touched his skin, a notification came from the Martial Arts Panel.

…

Discovered 150 units of energy, absorb?

Yes / No

…

‘The Pure Source Pill I refined through the dao pill furnace has 150 units of energy?’

Xu Ning smiled. He was very satisfied with this result.

The Pure Source Pills that Xu Ning had taken before only had 100 units of energy per pill, but the pill in his hands provided 50% more energy than before.

‘This is the added bonus from using an alchemy sutra and the furnace.’

Xu Ning absorbed 150 units of energy.

“In the Yuelan Sect, a Pure Source Pill can be exchanged for one and a half sets of raw materials. This is because there are many alchemists in the Yuelan Sect who have enough pills. But in the outside world, a Pure Source Pill can even be exchanged for two sets of materials.”

“In this case, even in the Yuelan Sect, once I exchange my Pure Source Pills for raw materials, I can refine more myself, which can greatly increase how much energy I can absorb. Two Pure Source Pills can only obtain 200 units of energy, but if I refine them by myself, I can obtain 450 units of energy, which is more than double the initial value!”

Xu Ning had made up his mind to exchange the remaining 30 plus Pure Source Pills for 50 sets of raw materials, then refine them into higher quality pills.

After absorbing a high-quality Pure Source Pill, Xu Ning threw the remaining nine sets of materials into the furnace.

Xu Ning followed the previous steps, and in less than 20 seconds, another nine high-grade Pure Source Pills were refined.

If other alchemists saw Xu Ning’s pill refinement process, they would definitely be shocked.

This was because not only was Xu Ning refining pills very quickly, but the quality of the finished product was extremely high. Even if he refined multiple pills at the same time, it did not affect his refining standards, instead it made the whole process more efficient.

Xu Ning absorbed another nine Pure Source Pills, obtaining 1350 units of energy.

This feeling of self-reliance made Xu Ning feel good.

“I’m done refining the Pure Source Pills, so let’s try this Spring Breeze Pill.”

When Xu Ning was injured in the mystic realm, he ingested a lot of Spring Breeze Pills, together with the Flame Breath Bone Sutra, to heal his injuries.

This time, Xu Ning threw in sets of raw materials needed to create Spring Breeze Pills into the pill and followed the instructions carefully.

After about 20 breaths of time, ten Spring Breeze Pills were refined. At this point, Xu Ning’s success rate was at 100%.

There was no waste in the pill furnace.

“These Spring Breeze Pills now have stronger effects.”

With Xu Ning’s current alchemy level, he could tell the difference between the pills with just a sniff.

“The effect of this Spring Breeze Pill has also increased by 50%.”

But this time, Xu Ning did not absorb the Spring Breeze Pill’s energy.

There was not a lot of energy in a Spring Breeze Pill, making it not cost-effective to absorb. It was a practical pill, mainly used to heal injuries.

“20 sets of raw materials have been refined.”

Xu Ning did not delay any longer. After cleaning up the residue in the pill furnace, he put it away.

Xu Ning left the alchemy room and went to the Materials Hall.

This time, Xu Ning exchanged all of the Pure Source Pills on his body for a total of 50 sets of raw materials.

After that, Xu Ning did not go to the alchemy room, instead he went back to his residence.

Xu Ning already knew that with his level of skill and the dao pill furnace, he would not be affected by the outside world, nor would he be discovered by others.

Therefore, 50 high-quality Pure Source Pills were refined in his place, which gained Xu Ning an additional 7,500 units of energy.

Inside the room, 7,500 units of energy had just been absorbed.

‘The benefits of this alchemist’s inheritance far exceed the resources I have received. With my skills, I don’t have to worry about not having enough energy anymore.’

Xu Ning was relieved.

‘Now that I have accumulated more than 30,000 units of energy, it is time to accept a mission and find a place to break through to the common seal realm.’

Xu Ning thought.

…

At the same time.

Yuelan Sect, Elder Gujuan’s Peak.

“Fang Jie, it seems that your junior brother Bao Ruyuan has indeed died in the mystic realm.”

Elder Gujuan said to his disciple Fang Jie.

Fang Jie was wearing a blue robe with a band around his forehead. He had a proud look on his face.

“What a shame.”

Fang Jie said, “Although Junior Brother’s aptitude is average, you spent a lot of effort to cultivate him. It is a shame that he died in the mystic realm.”

However, although he said this, Fang Jie did not sound sad.

“When I accepted your junior brother as a disciple, I did it for the sake of the Bao family. I was old friends with a clan elder in the Bao family, so I accepted him as a disciple because of our relationship.”

Elder Gujuan had no deep feelings for Bao Ruyuan. “However, your junior brother is dead, logically speaking, you should send a letter to the Bao family. I will prepare something for you to take to the Bao family, in order to express my apologies for not protecting your junior brother.”

“Understood, Master.”

Fang Jie responded.

“You will leave tomorrow.”

Elder Gujuan added.

“Yes.”

Fang Jie received the order.
