2009: C2009 Refining Gale Pill

C2009 Refining Gale Pill

Elder Gui's words opened a shining window in front of Ye Xu's eyes, allowing him to deeply understand the vastness of the path of alchemy in the Immortal World.

Compared to the Immortal World's Dao of Alchemy, the Bitter Realm's Dao of Alchemy could only be described as crude.

Currently, Ye Xu was like a sponge, crazily absorbing all the knowledge.

"Alright. I will slowly tell you about Pill Cauldron in the future when I have time. Now, tell me clearly how far your alchemy has progressed. Don't use Divine Strength Pill to fool me!"

Elder Gui looked at Ye Xu with a serious expression.

"I need to know your true strength. I need to use inferior strength to determine where you should strengthen yourself and how to deal with Qing Zhu!"

"Qing Zhu's strength is enough to easily concoct a Third Grade pill!"

" En!"

Ye Xu frowned. With his current strength, he could easily concoct Second Grade pills, but he wasn't very good at Third Grade pills.

There were two reasons for this. One was that the ingredients needed for Third Grade pills were too precious. Great Master Zhang was just an Elder from the Pill Refining Master Association. Although he had the ingredients, it was impossible for him to give them to Ye Xu for practice.

Other than that, there was another reason. Great Master Zhang was merely a Third Grade Pill Refining Master. If even he couldn't concoct Third Grade pills with his own proficiency, it would be even more impossible for Ye Xu to do so.

Therefore, Ye Xu could only answer honestly, "I can only refine Second Grade medicinal pills!"

"Second Grade medicinal pill, refine a Second Grade medicinal pill for this old man to take a look!"

Elder Gui frowned. The gap between Ye Xu and Qing Zhu was much greater than he had imagined.

Although Second Grade pills and Third Grade pills were only one word apart, the difficulty was like the chasm between heaven and earth.

The Pill Refining Master was only at the tenth grade. Apart from the illusory supreme alchemist, a ninth grade Pill Refining Master was already the limit.

From the first to the ninth grade, it was merely at the ninth grade. In the eyes of outsiders, it did not seem difficult for the Pill Refining Master to advance.

However, those who had come into contact with alchemy would know that the Pill Refining Master was a First Grade First Layer. Even someone as strong as Great Master Zhang was not stuck at the Third Grade for ten years. He was still unable to break through to the Rank-4.

It was because every First Grade pill had a completely different difficulty.

There were only five types of herbs in the First Grade Divine Strength Pill, but the Second Grade Divine Strength Pill had already increased to more than ten types of herbs.

Any Pill Refining Master knew that the more medicinal herbs there were, the harder it was to control them. The more medicinal herbs there were, the lower the tolerance level would be.

Ye Xu could easily and skillfully concoct First Grade Divine Strength Pill, but that didn't mean he could concoct Second Grade Divine Strength Pill with ease.

This was because First Grade pills could be practiced to perfection, but Second Grade pills could not.

The ingredients, proficiency, and spiritual energy were three major obstacles that restricted the Pill Refining Master, making it impossible for them to level up.

Ye Xu thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll make a fool of myself. I just got the Qin Family's Gale Pill, and I'll use it as a gift for Buddha!"

He waved his hand, and a tray appeared on the ground. Twelve herbs were neatly placed on top of it.

It was precisely the ingredients to refine the Gale Pill.

Ever since he obtained the Gale Pill formula, he had Great Master Zhang go and collect the ingredients to refine the Gale Pill. Although he did not collect much, it was enough for Ye Xu to use.

He sorted out the medicinal ingredients that Great Master Zhang gathered and placed them in different categories. When he wanted to refine them, he could immediately take them out and use them.

There was no time for Ye Xu to slowly choose the medicinal ingredients to refine the real ___. All he needed to do was to set the medicinal ingredients in advance and start refining them.

He had already ignited the carbon pill and repeated this action countless times. Ye Xu took a deep breath and began to concentrate.

However, what surprised him was that in less than ten breaths, the Origin Returning Cauldron had actually heated up.

"So fast..."

Ordinary pill furnaces would take a very long time to heat up the cauldron. Because the cauldron was huge and filled with cracks, a portion of the firepower would be wasted.

However, this Origin Returning Cauldron quickly heated up, which was out of Ye Xu's expectations.

Elder Gui smiled and said, "This Origin Returning Cauldron heats the cauldron twenty times faster than an ordinary cauldron, that's why you think it's fast!"

"Ha, this saves me a lot of time!"

Ye Xu suppressed the shock in his heart and began to place the medicinal herbs.

Unlike the Divine Strength Pill, the Gale Pill was already a Second Grade medicinal pill. There were a total of twelve medicinal herbs. Even with Ye Xu's alchemy ability, it was impossible for him to put all of them in and smelt them together.

Because with every additional herb, the consumption of spiritual energy would be doubled.

Ye Xu's spiritual energy was extremely powerful. Not only had he integrated with the world of consciousness, but he had also obtained a miraculous item that could automatically increase his spiritual energy. Even when he arrived in the Immortal World, his spiritual energy was still at the top level.

However, even with this kind of spiritual force, he could only refine five kinds of herbs at the same time.

Currently, there were a total of twelve herbs in the Gale Pill. Ye Xu estimated that his spiritual force would increase by three times before he could smelt them at the same time.

Hence, he directly took three medicinal herbs and placed them into the container and began smelting.

The medicinal herbs used to refine the Gale Pill were all of the wind attribute. There was a unique characteristic of the wind attribute medicinal herbs. They were neither soft nor hard. They were neither like water-attribute medicinal herbs that would burn upon contact with fire, nor did they need to be calcined by fire like metal-attribute medicinal herbs.

Wind attributed medicinal herbs only needed to be grilled with a medium fire.

However, when it came to a medium fire, the flame inside and outside also had an extremely tiny difference. Perhaps the low grade Pill Refining Master did not care about it, but in the eyes of a high grade Pill Refining Master, this was also a condition that determined the quality and success rate of the pill.

After putting all three herbs into the middle fire, Ye Xu placed them in the middle fire, the middle and the outer three places.

"En, a meticulous mind. The details are very well taken care of!"

As the saying goes, once an expert stretched out his hand, he would know if there was any.

As a tier 6 Pill Refining Master, Elder Gui was already very familiar with basic alchemy.

The reason he wanted Ye Xu to refine a Second Grade medicinal pill was precisely to see how far his alchemy had progressed.

If Ye Xu's ability was insufficient, he might have to consider making other choices.

But Ye Xu's detailed actions made Elder Gui very satisfied.

If he only looked at the details, Ye Xu was still above Qing Zhu.

Qing Zhu's advantage was his innate Hand of God, which had an incomparably sharp sense of touch. No changes in the pill furnace could escape his senses.

This was something that no one else could compare with, so the Hand of God saved Qing Zhu a lot of trouble.

And Ye Xu did not have the Hand of God, so he could only rely on basic alchemy to make up for it.

The skin of wind attribute medicinal herbs was not hard, and the medicinal liquid within could be smelted out in a short amount of time.

Ye Xu did not take out the medicinal herbs. Instead, before the refinement was completed, he placed these medicinal herbs at the low-temperature position and calcined them to the limit.

"Eh, the mid-fire turns low-fire, the temperature lowers, and the melting speed of the medicinal liquid slows. This is a waste of time!"0

Elder Gui's brows wrinkled slightly, and a trace of curiosity surged in his heart.
