"How …" Before the other pill refiner could finish his sentence, he also stood up in shock as he stared at the huge array screen in front of him.
On that huge array screen, there was a row of golden words, "Congratulations Chang Luo Pill Master Mo Wuji for passing the Pill Dao Pagoda's fourth level assessment, concocting 12 Grand Yi True Pills, all unique grade pills, and becoming a Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Honored Grade Tier 4 Pill King."
"Honored grade, honored grade, it's actually the honored grade …"
After repeating this a few times, the two finally reacted and asked at almost the same time, "Who is Mo Wuji?"
This array screen would only show congratulations if one successfully became a Pill King. Moreover, only pill refiners from the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Sharphorn Branch who entered the Pill Dao Pagoda would appear on this screen.
"Today, there were a total of three people who entered the pill refiner assessment. One of them had already failed and was sent out. As for the other two, one of them was Wang He. His Pill Dao was at most similar to mine; he should be a Tier 2 Pill Monarch. As for the other one … "The pill refiner who stood up first suddenly stopped.
The two of them glanced at each other and seemed to have understood something. The two of them started to flip through the records. Moments later, the two of them lifted their heads and looked at each other, "It's the last one to enter …"
There was no need to continue, the two of them already knew who the last person to enter was. It was the impetuous and ambitious young man in their eyes.
"How is this possible? How long has he been in there? How did he reach the fourth level?" The pill refiner who stood up first was slightly at a loss.
The other pill refiner was also in a daze as he muttered, "It's not a matter of how long it's been. It's because he's actually a Honored Grade, Honored Grade Pill King …"
The two of them were clear about what a Honored Grade was. Even a Tier 4 Pill King would be more popular than a Tier 6 Immortal Pill King. Honored Grade Pill Kings were extremely rare. Even a Tier 4 Honored Grade Pill King would be more popular than a Tier 6 Immortal Pill King. This was because in order to become a Tier 4 Honored Grade Pill King, one had to concoct unique grade pills during the assessment.
It could be said that only a Honored Grade Pill King would have the chance to become a true Pill Emperor.
…
Mo Wuji happily looked at the pills that he kept. A full batch of Grand Yi True Pills was 12 pills. Not only did he concoct a full batch, he even concocted 12 unique grade Grand Yi True Pills.
Mo Wuji did not stand on ceremony as he retrieved a jade vase and kept the two unique grade pills before sending the jade vase into the transfer array rune.
In merely ten breaths of time, a faint golden radiance appeared in the pill room. Following which, a melodious immortal voice could be heard and a row of words appeared within the golden radiance, "Congratulations Chang Luo Pill Master Mo Wuji for passing the Pill Dao Pagoda's 4th level certification test. Concocting 12 Grand Yi True Pills, all unique grade pills. Becoming a Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Honoured Grade Tier 4 Pill King."
This row of words floated in the air for a long time without dissipating. At the same time, the golden staircase at the end of the pill room became clearer. Clearly, the fifth level of the Pill Dao Pagoda had been opened.
Mo Wuji was in a daze. He did not immediately go to the fifth level, but looked at the row of congratulatory words. Honorable Grade Immortal Pill King? Why was there an extra word?
Instants later, Mo Wuji came to an understanding. He should have concocted a batch of unique grade Grand Yi True Pills, which was why he became a Honoured Grade Immortal Pill King.
Regardless, this Honoured Grade Tier 4 Pill King was definitely better than an ordinary Tier 4 Pill King.
As he thought of this, Mo Wuji was overjoyed. He grabbed his jade token and walked towards the golden staircase that led to the fifth level of the Pill Dao Pagoda.
The structure of the fifth level of the Pill Dao Pagoda was similar to the fourth level. Mo Wuji hesitated for a moment before placing his jade token into the groove in front of the pill furnace.
He knew that he definitely wouldn't be able to concoct Tier 5 immortal pills. However, this didn't matter because he was already satisfied with the title of Tier 4 Pill King. The reason why he placed his jade token in was because he wanted to see what Tier 5 immortal pills were available. If there were pills that didn't require compensation, he could try to concoct them and create a simple pill formula. If he needed compensation, he definitely wouldn't concoct them. He was afraid that he really wouldn't be able to afford it. The immortal herbs for Tier 5 immortal pills weren't just a little bit. He didn't want to go bankrupt.
After Mo Wuji placed his jade token into the groove, a huge array screen immediately appeared. The introduction of the rules on the array screen left Mo Wuji overjoyed. In the fifth level of the Pill Dao Pagoda, any failed pill would not require compensation. Moreover, if the pill was successfully concocted, the pill refiner would be able to take away 50% of the pill.
Mo Wuji didn't want to succeed in concocting the pill; he mainly wanted a pill formula. Since he didn't need compensation for a failed pill, he could choose the pill formula that he wanted. Even if he failed, he could remember the pill formula. Even though this pill formula was the simplest pill formula, it only had the names of the immortal herbs and nothing else. To Mo Wuji, it was enough. He believed that with his Pill Dao standard, he would be able to perfect this pill formula very quickly and concoct this pill.
After the rules flashed, Mo Wuji saw 20 to 30 pill formulas.
Number one was the Immortal Cleansing Grand Zhi Pill, followed by the Alioth Gold Pill, the Purple Void Clear Pill, the Dual Life Reincarnation Pill …
Mo Wuji's gaze landed on the Zhi Desolate Pill. He had seen this pill before on a tattered jade letter. This was a pill that couldn't even be bought on the market. Even though there wasn't a word 'Spiritual' in the name, this pill's main use was to strengthen spiritual will. Not only could it strengthen spiritual will, it could also nourish the primordial spirit. It could be said to be extremely valuable. If there was a technique to cultivate spiritual will, this pill would be a perfect match.
Moreover, the Zhi Desolate Pill had a sister pill, called the Zhi Nature Pill. The Zhi Nature Pill was much more valuable than the Zhi Desolate Pill. Even though the Zhi Nature Pill couldn't strengthen spiritual will, it could repair damaged spiritual will. Besides that, this pill could even repair damage to the primordial spirit. There were very few pills that could heal and repair damage to the primordial spirit. Clearly, the Zhi Nature Pill was extremely valuable.
Mo Wuji hurried to scroll down. Unfortunately, there wasn't a Zhi Nature Pill amongst these 20 over Tier 5 immortal pills. This made Mo Wuji slightly disappointed. If there was a Zhi Nature Pill, he would not hesitate to choose it.
If there wasn't a Zhi Nature Pill, Mo Wuji's first choice would be this Zhi Desolate Pill.
To an average person, the Immortal Cleansing Grand Zhi Pill might be more valuable. This was because this pill could allow a Grand Yi Immortal to advance to the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage. But to Mo Wuji, the Immortal Cleansing Grand Zhi Pill was too far away. He was only in the intermediate Golden Immortal Stage now. He didn't know when he would advance to the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage. However, he could use the Zhi Desolate Pill now. His sacred arts and techniques were mostly built on the foundation of his strong spiritual will. To him, this pill that could strengthen spiritual will was like sending charcoal in the snowy weather.
It was the Zhi Desolate Pill. Mo Wuji did not hesitate to tap on the Zhi Desolate Pill.
Moments later, a pile of immortal herbs appeared on the spot where he was concocting the pill.
Dust Washing Immortal Bamboo, Heavenly Pearl Marrow, Flowerless Buddha Fruit, Heavenly Desolate Grass …
Heavenly Desolate Grass? Mo Wuji picked up an extremely ordinary grass. It looked no different from an ordinary grass. The only unique point was that this grass didn't have roots. The Grass, Wood, Stone's description of the Heavenly Desolate Grass was very clear. This grass only grew in the void where there were no signs of human habitation. This void referred to a place where there were no signs of life, the five elements or even elemental energy. It could be the void, the space, or even a corner of a planet.
Out of all the pill formulas that Mo Wuji knew of, none of them could use the Heavenly Desolate Grass. The description of this grass was very clear. It was very hard to purify it. This was because the impurities and essence were completely mixed together. There was no way to separate them. The Grass, Wood, Stone's description said that this was the reason why the Heavenly Desolate Grass had such a name. The meaning behind it was that the impurities and essence would remain together forever. Therefore, this grass couldn't be consumed on its own. There was no meaning in concocting the pill.
He didn't expect this grass to be the immortal herb used to concoct the Zhi Desolate Pill. Unfortunately, he didn't know the use of the Heavenly Desolate Grass in the concoction of the Zhi Desolate Pill.
After memorising the immortal herbs used to concoct the Zhi Desolate Pill, Mo Wuji immediately started to concoct the Zhi Desolate Pill.
The Zhi Desolate Pill was a Tier 5 immortal pill. According to Mo Wuji's experience, this was definitely one of the hardest Tier 5 immortal pills to concoct.
After lighting up the pill fire and cleaning the pill furnace, Mo Wuji sent the immortal herbs used to concoct the Zhi Desolate Pill into the pill furnace. He didn't know the order of the herbs used to concoct the Zhi Desolate Pill. He could only casually send the immortal herbs in.
Fortunately, Mo Wuji's purification of the immortal herbs was definitely top notch. He easily purified the remaining immortal herbs to 98% purity. Finally, he added the Heavenly Desolate Grass.
The moment the Heavenly Desolate Grass entered the pill furnace, Mo Wuji was dumbfounded. The impurities in the immortal herbs instantly fused with the immortal herbs he had already purified. His pill techniques were completely unable to stop it. Moreover, these impurities and essence were actually fused together tightly. Even with Mo Wuji's purification methods, he didn't know how to remove these impurities.
If this furnace of medicinal liquid was described as countless of atoms, then the atoms of the Heavenly Desolate Grass would be one with these atoms. If he were to forcefully purify it, it would directly destroy the entire medicinal liquid. This would result in the failure of the pill concoction.
Fortunately, Mo Wuji didn't intend to successfully concoct a Tier 5 immortal pill. The reason why he started concocting the Zhi Desolate Pill was because he wanted to obtain this pill formula.
Mo Wuji's spirit storage channel's spiritual will started to seep into every part of the medicinal liquid. Thereafter, he started to meticulously remove the impurities.
Time passed bit by bit. After a few hours, Mo Wuji didn't even manage to remove 0.1% of the impurities. Every time he removed a portion of the impurities, the impurities within the Heavenly Desolate Grass would quickly seep over. This would once again cause the medicinal liquid to become impure.
Three consecutive days passed. When Mo Wuji heard a "Pu" sound and a burnt smell wafted out, he knew that he had failed this batch of pills. Not only did he fail, he failed completely.
Previously, when Mo Wuji was concocting pills, he had never failed in the purification process. This was the first time he failed at the first step of concocting pills.
