Helping in the Dark
"Compound Pill?"
Qin Yichen raised his eyebrows. His interest was piqued as he walked over to Ning Li and the others.
There were alchemists everywhere trying to fuse different medicinal properties together.
The Sacred Grounds were no exception.
Qin Yichen still vaguely remembered that it was because of the Compound Pill that he was valued in Shaotian Holy Land.
Otherwise, with his qualifications, even if he was lucky enough to enter the Sacred Grounds, he would at most be a handyman.
His luck was indeed good.
This was because the Celestial Qilin Kingdom was rich in Dry Frost Grass.
His conditions could be said to be blessed by the heavens. Therefore, he was able to develop the compound pill.
However, in his previous life, because he did not know how to conceal it, he exposed the Celestial Qilin Kingdom, causing it to become a battleground for the various clans. As for the Dry Frost Grass, because of its scarcity, its price also skyrocketed.
In this life, of course, he would not make such a low-level mistake.
First of all, no one knew that the Celestial Qilin Kingdom was rich in Dry Frost Grass. Qin Yichen had already asked Lv Heze to seal and seal off the area rich in Dry Frost Grass.
The Dry Frost Grass could be found everywhere in the mainland, but it was extremely rare.
Occasionally, it would grow in the herb fields, but it would be treated as weeds and uprooted.
This was the current situation of the Dry Frost Grass.
"Ning Li is a lunatic. Why does he think that this thing can fuse different medicinal properties together?"
"Wishful thinking, really wishful thinking …"
"The furnace has already exploded so many times. Is Ning Li still not willing to give up?"
There were sighs and mockery all around.
Ning Li was one of the most talented alchemists in the younger generation of the Taihao Sacred Ground's outer sect.
At this time, the other alchemists who were developing the new medicine with him were originally persuaded by Ning Li. Therefore, they accompanied Ning Li to develop the new medicine.
However, the repeated failures had caused them to lose confidence.
"Senior Brother Ning, forget it …"
One of the alchemists who had a good relationship with Ning Li tried to persuade him.
Ning Li was talented, but if he spent his time and energy on this kind of thing, it was very likely that he would be mediocre for the rest of his life.
There were many examples of this in the Sacred Grounds.
"What exactly went wrong? The two medicinal properties have already begun to fuse …"
Ning Li, however, turned a deaf ear to it. His gaze was fixed on the dregs inside the broken pill furnace, carefully inspecting them. He even picked up some charred dregs and sniffed them.
"Eh?"
Qin Yichen walked over and glanced at the materials placed on the side. He was surprised to find that there were a few stalks of Withered Frost Grass among the spiritual herbs.
It turned out that when Ning Li was refining medicine, he accidentally spilled some medicinal liquid. As a result, because there was a stalk of Withered Frost Grass on the ground, the two medicinal liquids of different attributes unexpectedly merged into one.
This was also the reason why these alchemists would accompany Ning Li to develop new medicines.
However, no matter how many times they tried, they could not replicate the miracle that happened by accident.
With just a glance, Qin Yichen understood why they had been failing all the time.
The reason was because of the use of Withered Frost Grass.
First of all, there was too little Withered Frost Grass. This would cause the medicinal liquid that had already begun to fuse to suddenly go out of control and cause the furnace to explode.
Ning Li could not be blamed for this.
He had probably collected all the Withered Frost Grass in the herb farm in the Holy Land. Unfortunately, there were only dozens of stalks. Therefore, every time he refined medicine, he only used a small amount of Withered Frost Grass.
Moreover, the timing of the use of Withered Frost Grass was not right. Otherwise, even if the two medicinal properties could not fuse together, the furnace would not have exploded.
There were many other details.
Looking at Ning Li's companions who had lost their confidence, Qin Yichen could not help but sigh in his heart.
In fact, this was not the first time that the medicinal properties accidentally fused together. However, because of the conditions, it was not settled in the end.
The Withered Frost Grass was one of the most important factors.
If Ning Li was given an unlimited supply of Withered Frost Grass now, he might succeed one day.
"Let's try one more time, one last time. If it doesn't work …"
Ning Li stood up and said to his companions.
They could not persuade him and could only follow his wishes.
After all, they had already spent a lot of energy on this. Trying one more time would be considered as a way to make up for the regret in their hearts.
This was because Ning Li had already proved to them that different medicinal properties could be fused together. If they kept failing, it was their own fault.
Following that, they found a new pill furnace. After discussing for a while, the few of them opened it and tried one more time.
Their expressions were very serious. Every spiritual medicine that they put in was refined to the limit. Looking at the level of the medicinal liquid, it was at least grade seven. Some of them were even grade eight.
From the purity of the medicinal liquid, it could be seen that they were very talented and had a high level of attainment.
Among them, Ning Li's attainment in spiritual power had already reached the pericelestial level. The others were also half a step into the pericelestial level.
Furthermore, they were only in their twenties or thirties.
After about an hour, they had refined the spiritual medicine that they had prepared into medicinal liquid. Furthermore, each of them controlled a few to ensure that nothing went wrong.
"Phew …"
Following that, Ning Li let out a long sigh of relief. Then, he picked up a stalk of Withered Frost Grass …
Following that, he seemed to hesitate for a moment. Looking at the remaining three stalks of Withered Frost Grass on the medicine rack, he gritted his teeth and picked them all up.
Anyway, this was already the last attempt. There was no point in saving them.
"You have some courage."
The corners of Qin Yichen's mouth curled up. He stood at the side and continued to watch.
He seemed to see a shadow of himself in Ning Li and the others.
When he was developing the compound pill, wasn't he also faced with ridicule and mockery?!
Therefore, Qin Yichen wanted to help them.
The four stalks of Withered Frost Grass were thrown into the pill furnace and slowly refined …
"Sigh."
Seeing this, Qin Yichen could not help but sigh. Following that, he moved. He walked towards Ning Li and the others. When he walked past them, he pretended to lose his balance and staggered towards one of them, causing that person to stagger.
"Oh no!"
That person's palm left the pill furnace and his expression changed drastically.
Qin Yichen took advantage of this opportunity and slapped his palm on the pill furnace. While they were distracted, the medicinal liquid collided with the medicinal liquid of the Withered Frost Grass.
"You, how can you be so reckless …"
Just as the few of them were about to berate Qin Yichen, Qin Yichen pointed at the pill furnace and reminded them, "Seniors, don't be distracted. Be careful of the explosion!"
At this moment, they finally remembered what they were here to do.
When they looked into the pill furnace again, they realized that all the medicinal liquid had been mixed together …
"Oh no, the furnace is going to explode!"
One of them changed his expression and was about to retreat.
Ning Li was also about to be pulled away. However, just as he was about to turn around, he stopped.
