Chapter 12 The Top-Grade Pills Aren't to Be Revealed?
After more than half an hour, several kinds of medicinal materials had been purified into crystal clear medicinal liquid. Next, Chu Feng would begin to melt the liquid, separate the liquid, and condense the pill.
A batch of medicinal herbs needs to be magically blended to fully exert their effects. Some herbs may even repel each other. Therefore, the order in which the liquids are blended must be carefully considered. If any step goes wrong, the entire batch of medicinal liquids will be ruined.
Alchemy is not as simple as one plus one equals two. An alchemist must have a 100% understanding of medicinal materials and medicinal liquids in order to successfully refine the elixir.
The solution is important, and so is the separation process. In short, every step must be done with utmost care.
The number of pills to be refined in a batch to ensure sufficient medicinal properties without wasting a single drop of liquid, and to maximize the formation of pills, all require precise calculation.
If too much liquid is separated, it will be wasted; if too little liquid is separated, the medicinal properties of the pill will be insufficient after it is formed.
Moreover, the separation time of the solution is also crucial. If the time is too long, the medicinal properties of the solution will be greatly lost under high temperature baking.
Therefore, regardless of the interface, alchemy is one of the most sought-after professions.
Chu Feng's soul power is extremely strong; he is the remnant soul of a Martial Emperor. Refining a mere second-grade pill should be a piece of cake for him.
However, in any industry, if you don't practice for three days, you'll be out of practice when you meet strangers.
Chu Feng's body was fused after his transmigration, and he had just begun cultivating. In addition, after becoming a Martial Emperor in his previous life, he had not refined any pills for many years. Therefore, he still made a slight mistake during the pill condensation process.
With a loud "bang," the entire batch of medicinal liquid was instantly burned to charcoal.
"I haven't refined pills for many years, so I'm still a bit rusty. Besides, this body still needs some time to adjust," Chu Feng muttered to himself.
Chu Feng took a few breaths to calm himself down, analyzed the situation for a while, and then began refining pills again.
This time, he was a little slower than before, striving for perfection in every step of the process.
With his powerful divine sense unfolding, Chu Feng meticulously observed the purification, flow, and fusion of the medicinal liquid, then began separating the liquids, working meticulously until the final step of forming the pill.
The alchemical fire was also condensed by himself, and he could use it as easily as his own limbs. His soul power was several times stronger than that of ordinary alchemists, so this time, the alchemy was completed very smoothly.
As Chu Feng performed a series of complex hand seals to collect the pills, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted from the pill furnace.
Even Su Yongquan, who was silently guarding not far from the door, felt a jolt throughout his body. Had the Foundation Establishment Pill been successfully refined?
Just then, the gray-black seed in Chu Feng's dantian suddenly trembled, and a trace of magical energy merged into the pill.
"Collect!" Chu Feng quickly cast several more pill-collecting incantations, then used his divine sense to wrap the pill and pull it out.
In the void, twelve Foundation Establishment Pills, emitting a soft glow, floated in the air!
"Xiao Feng, you really succeeded! Huh? There are twelve Foundation Establishment Pills! This... how is this possible?!" As soon as the pills were formed, Su Yongquan rushed over.
"Um, Grandpa, do you have a jade bottle? I forgot to prepare one..." Chu Feng suddenly remembered that he hadn't prepared a jade bottle to store the pills.
Wu Heng only gave him a pill-making furnace, but not a jade bottle for holding the pills.
Once the elixir is refined, it must be placed in a specially made jade bottle; otherwise, its medicinal effects will be lost.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Su Yongquan hurriedly took out a bunch of jade bottles and put away the pills.
Su Yongquan's attention was completely drawn to the pills floating in the air.
Twelve pills! Su Yongquan had lived his entire life, but he had never heard of any alchemist who could refine twelve pills in a single batch!
Could it be that Chu Feng is an unparalleled genius in alchemy? No, that can't be right. In the entire Tianwu Continent, I've never heard of anyone who can refine twelve pills.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" Chu Feng felt something was strange. Even if he could break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he shouldn't be in this state, right?
So embarrassing...
Su Yongquan still had a Foundation Establishment Pill in his hand, and his hand was trembling...
"Xiao Feng, this is a pill pattern? My God, you've refined a Foundation Establishment Pill with pill patterns on your first attempt? No way, Grandpa's going to faint..." Su Yongquan said again, trembling.
Chu Feng said speechlessly, "Grandpa, it's just a pill pattern, what's so strange about it? You can't be that serious, can you? It's just a Foundation Establishment Pill."
The Foundation Establishment stage is merely the bottom level in cultivation, why get so excited?
Su Yongquan pointed at Chu Feng with his finger, trembling as he said, "Little Feng, I've lived my whole life and never heard of refining twelve pills! Especially pills with pill patterns! You must never do this when you refine pills in the future! This is not a blessing, but a curse! You must never reveal this pill to anyone!"
Chu Feng asked doubtfully, "The Tianwu Continent is so vast, surely there are places that can produce twelve pills? Is it really that difficult to refine pill patterns?"
After taking several deep breaths, Su Yongquan finally calmed himself down a bit: "Xiao Feng, alchemists on the Tianwu Continent have never refined pills that have developed pill patterns! Moreover, a single batch of pills can only produce a maximum of nine pills!"
Su Yongquan was no stranger to the world; he had seen it all, from the prefectural city to the county city. But today, he was completely taken aback!
If this gets out, it will be a huge disaster! A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime!
Chu Feng frowned. Had the Tianwu Continent really fallen so low? In the Jiu Ning Continent, even a skilled alchemist could produce twelve pills.
As for pill patterns, they are indeed rare. Even in his previous life, Chu Feng was unable to refine pills with pill patterns. It wasn't that his pill refining skills were insufficient, but rather that the world and its laws were flawed.
The reason he was able to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill with visible pill patterns today is probably due to the seed in his dantian.
"Alright, Grandpa, you should take these pills yourself and not let them circulate. I've received news that the Zhou family has joined forces with the City Lord's Mansion, and they might be targeting our Su family. You need to hurry up and break through to the Foundation Establishment stage," Chu Feng instructed.
With twelve Foundation Establishment Pills, even if Su Yongquan's aptitude is poor, he should be able to cultivate to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, right?
Cultivators who use Foundation Establishment Pills can not only break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, but also break through to even higher levels.
"What? It's over! Miss Qin Yuwei from the City Lord's Mansion invited Xiaoxiao to a banquet, and Xiaoxiao has been tricked into going to the City Lord's Mansion!" Su Yongquan said, pounding his head and stamping his feet.
Chu Feng was also anxious when he heard this. Fatty Zhou said that Qin Feng, the young master of the City Lord's Mansion, had taken a liking to Su Xiaoxiao. No wonder he hadn't seen Xiaoxiao all day yesterday!
Xiaoxiao is my wife. Not to mention the city lord's son, even if it were the Heavenly King himself, if he dared to bully my woman, I would kill him!
"Grandpa, you go and break through to the Foundation Establishment stage. I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion to pick up Xiaoxiao now. Oh, and I'll keep this pill!"
After tidying up the medicinal herbs and alchemy furnace, Chu Feng stored the alchemical fire in his dantian and hurriedly left, heading towards the city lord's mansion!
You dare bully my woman? I'll kill you!
