C163 Fortunately I Didn't Fail My Mission

Article 163. Fortunately, he did not fail the mission.

Seeing the old man's anxious look, Qin Chu nodded at Qian Xun and followed the old man.

The old man led Qin Chu into a Pill Room room. There were seven pill furnaces inside, and seven of them were lined up in a row. At the moment, two people were cleaning up the pill furnace. They were two apprentice alchemists who were about thirteen or fourteen years old.

"What I'm going to refine next is a Qi Zhi Ling Dan. After the furnace is opened, help me stabilize the flame of a pill furnace." The old man looked at Qin Chu and said.

Qin Chu nodded his head. He had learned about the Qi Zhi Ling Dan in the Alchemy Book. It was a Tier 6 King level medicinal pill. The refining process was very complicated. Its effect was to open the meridians and strengthen the muscles and bones. The ingredients needed were also very complicated. Ordinary medicinal pills were one main ingredient and a few supplementary ingredients, while this Qi Zhi Ling Dan was seven main ingredients and a few supplementary ingredients. Furthermore, it had to be refined separately. After the seven refined ingredients were combined together, coagulated into a pill.

Qin Chu was a little puzzled. How did this old man find him for such an important matter? If he couldn't do it, then it would be a trap.

As he was sorting out the ingredients, the old man looked at Qin Chu and said, "You should refine a cauldron of medicinal pills first. Let this seat take a look."

While Qin Chu was pondering, the old man was also a little worried, because Qin Chu was too young.

There were ingredients in the Pill Room. Qin Chu found a set of ingredients for the Fanggu Dan and casually refined a cauldron of Fanggu Dan.

"Basic skill is still alright. You just need to be careful later. Help this seat look after a pill furnace. If you succeed, this seat will reward you handsomely." The old man said to Qin Chu.

After the old man finished preparing the ingredients, he started concocting the pill furnace. Seven pill furnace opened fire at the same time, and the ingredients were placed into the pill furnace.

Qin Chu took over one pill furnace, and maintained the Pill Fire under the pill furnace to the same level as the other six pill furnace.

"Senior, there are many alchemists in the Pill Refiner Guild, why didn't you ask for help from others?" Qin Chu asked what he didn't understand.

"My disciple has something to do at the last minute. Every alchemist in the Pill Refiner Guild has their own matters to attend to." The old man told Qin Chu the reason.

While maintaining the flame, Qin Chu was also observing the old man's concoction technique. Since he dared to concoct a Tier 6 King Grade Qi Zhi Ling Dan, the old man was naturally a Tier 6 Heaven King Stage Alchemist. Every high tier alchemist's concoction technique and experience were things that other alchemists needed to learn and comprehend.

The old man threw the same material into the pill furnace. The material turned into a medicinal liquid, and the medicinal liquid kept churning and shrinking.

In the blink of an eye, four hours had passed. Beads of sweat appeared on the old man's forehead. Controlling six pill furnace and considering the problem of the flame of the medicinal liquid, he was indeed a little tired.

After pondering for a moment, Qin Chu waved his arm and took over another pill furnace refinement. His Dantian had the flame of the Vermillion Bird Holy Land, which made his control of the flame very strong. The consumption of these four hours was nothing to him, he could still bear it.

The old man looked at Qin Chu in surprise, then continued concocting the pill.

Controlling and maintaining the flames of the two pill furnaces were no problems for Qin Chu, he still had the energy to observe the old man's concoction.

All of a sudden, the old man's expression changed, "Is this still a failure?"

"Senior, what happened to that cauldron of medicinal liquid?" Qin Chu saw that the color of the medicinal liquid in the pill furnace closest to him was not right.

"There was a problem with one of the supplementary ingredients. There was a mistake with the Blue Whiskered Grass and Blue Spirit Grass. They looked exactly the same on the outside, and their smells were exactly the same as well. They did not refine the medicinal liquid. I can't tell at all. It was also unknown which one of the management materials was not properly sorted. Damn it!" The old man cursed.

"Senior, hurry up and make another batch." Qin Chu said.

"No, I don't have that much energy!" The old man sighed.

"Junior will guard another pill furnace for you." The Essence Qi on Qin Chu's body surged as he took over another pill furnace.

The old man looked at Qin Chu in surprise. He waved his sleeve and swept aside the unusual pill furnace. Then, he took out a pill furnace from the Storage Ring. He maintained the state of the three pill furnaces while reopening the seventh pill furnace.

As he sped up the concoction of the medicinal liquid inside the seventh pill furnace, the old man reminded Qin Chu to keep the rhythm of the three pill furnaces he controlled in sync with the three pill furnaces he controlled.

Qin Chu nodded. He could only do his best now. No matter what level he could do, even if the cauldron of medicinal pills failed, the responsibility would not be on him.

The old man sped up the concoction of the seventh pill furnace's medicinal liquid, continuously catching up to the other six pill furnace.

Four hours passed, and the medicinal liquid within the seven pill furnaces became the same rhythm.2

"Young man, are you alright? You just have to look at the two pill furnaces." The old man looked at Qin Chu and said.

Looking at the beads of sweat on the old man's forehead, Qin Chu shook his head and said, "Junior is alright!"

The medicinal liquid nourished for an hour before the old man took over the seven pill furnaces. He merged the seven main ingredients that had already been refined to the limit into one and began the final stage of pill refinement.

Qin Chu's mission was completed. He had been maintaining the flames of the three pill furnaces refining. The consumption of the flame had exceeded the amount of the competence he could bear. This made him feel a little tired. Therefore, as soon as the mission was completed, he sat to one side and rested. He watched the old man refine the last pill.

The final pill was not difficult in the hands of the old man. Not long after, a pill that was filled with a halo came out of the furnace. The old man put it into the medicine bottle and sat beside Qin Chu.

"Young man, what's your name?" The old man looked at Qin Chu and asked.

"Junior's name is Qin Chu." Qin Chu said.

"You aren't a Tier 3 alchemist, are you?" The old man asked.

"This junior is a fourth grade Alchemist." Qin Chu didn't hide anything, because the flame that controlled the three pill furnaces wasn't the competence of a Tier 3 alchemist.

"I, Chu Shan, am one of the elders of the Pill Refiner Guild. I was entrusted by someone else this time. It was a good thing that he did not fail in refining a Qi Zhi Ling Dan. Let's go. I'll bring you there. This Qi Zhi Ling Dan can be refined. You have contributed greatly!" Chu Shan said to Qin Chu.

"Junior will go wash his face first." Qin Chu said with a smile. After staying in front of the pill furnace for half a day, his face was covered in sweat.

After washing his face, Qin Chu followed Chu Shan out of the Pill Refiner Guild.

At the entrance of the Pill Refiner Guild, Qin Chu saw Qian Xun.

Qian Xun didn't see Qin Chu come out, he just waited.

"Senior and I will go out for a while. We will return to the inn later. You don't have to wait for me." Qin Chu said to Qian Xun. At this moment, he had gained a deeper understanding of Qian Xun.

Chu Shan led Qin Chu forward. When they arrived at the place, Qin Chu was stunned for a moment because it was an extremely luxurious mansion.

"This is City Master's mansion." After saying that, Chu Shan led Qin Chu into the mansion. No one stopped them.

"Elder Chu is here." A middle-aged man in brocade robe appeared.

Chu Shan nodded at brocade robed man and handed the medicine bottle to him, "Luckily, I did not fail your mission."

"Someone come and serve the wine." brocade robed man shouted at the servant, then welcomed Chu Shan into the manor.

Qin Chu knew that this brocade robed man was the Heavenly Sword City's City Master.

After entering the Lobby, brocade robed man's eyes fell upon Qin Chu.
