After receiving its master's praise, the Winged Cloud Insect proudly raised its head and spread its legs. Its eyes looked at the sky with a proud expression and seemed to be made from the same mold as Jhonas.
"Yes, not bad."
"Ha ha, Boss, you don't know this. In the Heavenly Gates, a messenger is a symbol of one's status! If you don't get a high-grade messenger, you won't even be able to greet others when you go out … "When Jhonas said this, he suddenly shut up. He seemed to have gone overboard. The person beside him did not have a messenger … At that moment, he quickly changed the topic and patted his chest." Don't worry, Boss. What's mine is yours! In the future, if you need to send a letter outside, I will take care of it all! We brothers will share blessings and misfortunes together! "
Lao Wang smiled. "This little thing can probably only send simple messages."
"Heh heh, that's enough. It's good stuff and cheap!" Jhonas said. "That's right, there was a joke today. I heard that a Combat Cultivation student brought out a spirit from the Spirit Flower Garden. Damn, is there such an unreliable thing? Only one or two spirits appear every year, and they are all taken care of by Pill Refiners. If a Combat Cultivation student can have one, wouldn't a dignified Weapon Refiner like me have one too?"
Lao Wang glared at this fellow. He was timid and loved to show off. He hoped that he was lucky.
Jhonas did not forget about his proper business. When he returned, he carried a large bag on his back. At that moment, he twisted the bag and opened it. At the bottom of the bag was a layer of black metal. It was the Aggadas Active Metal that Weapon Refiners needed. Meanwhile, on top of the black metal were various damaged spiritual flowers and plants that were on the verge of death and did not seem to have any spirituality.
"Boss, look at this!" As Jhonas spoke, he took out all the pill ingredients and divided them into two equal portions on the table, along with the Aggadas Active Metal. "Ha ha, one for you and one for me. Everything is here! Don't be polite with me. This is the reward for the token. We are helping each other. "
Wang Zhong looked carefully and saw that most of the spiritual flowers and plants were low-grade defective products. Furthermore, their vitality and the spiritual influence contained within them were extremely poor and thin. "Are you sure that this can be used to refine pills?"
After all, he had learned some general knowledge about medicine and pill theory from Uncle Sea. He still knew the most basic things. Only good medicinal ingredients could increase the success rate of refining pills. This time, after gathering all the medicinal ingredients for the level-seven pill, everyone would definitely learn how to refine pills. That was the first step to truly coming into contact with pill theory. Even if someone could really master it, there would be different levels.
Generally speaking, as long as a pill was formed, it would have the basic effect of a pill. However, if it was barely formed, the effect would be very poor. Reaching 50% would be considered a passing grade, and 60% and above would be considered outstanding. The best 100% Perfect Pill was also known as the Perfect Pill. Wanting to refine a level 7 100% Perfect Pill was really not any easier than refining a level 6 or even level 5 pill.
Like this? Not to mention forming pills, if it was a better pill furnace, it would be a waste to throw these in.
"Boss, we're just here to join in the fun. Don't tell me you're really going to concoct pills? Do you have any foundation in concocting pills? You're giving us a seventh-grade pill right off the bat. You're not giving us a way out at all," Jhonas said, looking like an expert.
The Flying Pig was also speechless. The way Lao Wang stared at the medicinal ingredients in a daze made him feel that Lao Wang really had plans to try pill refinery. "You don't really want to refine pills, do you? Even our Illusory Race might not be able to afford it … I say, we should just be realistic and hand in the mission. "
Whether one could afford to play or not did not depend on how much money one had. It also depended on one's talent. If one had talent, they could nurture at least a Level Nine Alchemist with the materials from a few dozen furnaces of pills. At that time, many forces could afford to nurture them. However, if one did not have natural endowments and threw tens of thousands of batches of ingredients into the furnace, one would not even be able to see pill dregs. Then, even a level-8 civilization would not be able to play around like this. In other industries, practice makes perfect, and dripping water wears through a stone.
But alchemy? Practice makes perfect. If you have talent, then you have talent. If you don't? Even if you refined for 10,000 years, you would still be a dregs.
There were many low-leveled civilizations that wanted to learn from the Shell race and rely on pill refinery to make a name for themselves. However, since the establishment of the divine territory, only the Shell race had appeared. This was not without reason. Talent and wealth were not things that low-leveled civilizations could achieve. However, Lao Wang was different …
Lao Wang waved his hand and weighed the medicinal ingredients in his hands. As expected, they were of the lowest quality. Not only were they of inferior quality, but they were also listless and looked as if they would not be able to survive very soon. Even Jhonas could not bear to look at them. They were simply defective goods that could not be sold.
However, Lao Wang's eyes lit up, and an idea suddenly appeared in his head. These damaged medicinal ingredients, perhaps …
Ever since his spiritual power had increased to the upper limit, Lao Wang did not bother much about the fragment world. However, this was not because of money. Low-leveled medicinal ingredients were no longer of much help to him. Furthermore, it was very rare to see high-quality high-quality medicinal ingredients in the Heavenly Treasures Street. Even if he managed to obtain them, he could not grow them in the fragment world at that time. The fragment world was related to Wang Zhong's geographical location. The more abundant the spiritual influence in the outside world, the better the effects of the fragment world would be.
Before coming to the Heavenly Gates, he had thought of making use of the superior geographical environment of the Heavenly Gates to start trying to grow higher level elixirs. However, he had been busy for the past few days and had actually forgotten about this matter. Now, looking at the table full of incomplete elixirs, his mind was completely filled with ideas.
"Nothing. I was just thinking about something." However, Lao Wang had already recovered from his deep thoughts. He laughed as he packed up everything and put it away. "Thanks!"
After all, he had just started classes. There were a few more classes in the first month.
There were classes in the Pill Refinery Hall on the second day. Unlike the other two classes, where there were only two or three observers, almost everyone was present this time. Even those who knew that they did not have any natural endowments in pill refinery were unwilling to miss out on the opportunity to listen to Elder Yimo's teachings.
When it came to cultivation, it was said that all roads led to Rome. Pill refinery was the core and most mysterious path of all cultivation. Being able to experience and experience more would be of great help to other cultivation.
At the foot of Furnace Mountain, 1,500 pupils had gathered. They had arrived very early, and no one was willing to be late for even a second. It was like a grand ceremony.
They handed in their materials first. The three supervisors pulled out tables at the side. They only inspected the materials and did not collect them. The supervisors' expressions were cold, but every pupil was rather excited and looked at each other's materials. Almost all the high-quality materials had been snatched away. There were at least 1,500 portions of the same type of pill. How could there be so many top-notch materials in reserve? At this moment, it was a competition of power, financial resources, and status.
The best materials would definitely be given to the strongest people.
Lao Wang and Jhonas were in the queue. When they saw the pupils in front of them hand in various materials that emitted a spiritual fragrance, Jhonas was obviously slightly nervous. When it was their turn, the supervisor, who had been expressionless, was dumbfounded.
When they saw the two of them taking out the materials from their bags, the pupils at the side felt like rolling their eyes.
"Are these medicinal dregs?"
"Look at that Ghost Kissing Orchid … Oh my god, it's not easy for it to grow into this."
"Damn, there's such a thing? Are these the trash that they picked up from the spiritual medicine market? How can they hand in their mission and pass? "
There was a flabbergasted uproar in the surroundings. Only Lao Wang and Jhonas were unrivalled in terms of shamelessness. The supervisor in charge of collecting the materials checked for a long time and finally registered them in the register. However, his gaze was slightly cold when he looked at Jhonas, Wang Zhong, and the others. He looked at them with contempt that came from his bones. It was obvious that he did not like these hooligans.
After a round of statistics, the 100 pupils from the Pill Refinery Hall had definitely completed their tasks with good quality and quantity. Furthermore, all of them handed in more than three sets of materials at the same time, with the highest number of materials handed in 50 sets. Meanwhile, the other auditing students were uneven, especially the Combat Cultivation Hall. Out of 900 pupils, only over 300 had handed in their materials. It was not that they were unwilling to earn 10 points, but that they were embarrassingly short of money. A set of medicinal ingredients for a level-7 pill was not something that anyone could casually obtain. It was enough to cause a level-6 Faction to feel pain for a few months. Furthermore, there were a few people like Jhonas who used inferior goods to make up the numbers. However, this did not matter. If there was a system, there would definitely be loopholes. The Heavenly Gates did not object to pupils having these crooked thoughts and ideas. If one could muddle through like this every time and obtain points through deception, that would be considered one's ability.
After struggling for a while, Elder Yimo appeared on the stone stove on time.
A name list appeared in his hands. It was the name list that everyone had registered when they handed in their materials. He raised it and waved it around.
"Pill refinery is sacred and serious, and there is no room for shortcuts. Materials are the foundation of all pill studies. If you do not have the support of resources, it is best to give up as soon as possible so that you do not harm others and yourself. " Even though Elder Yimo's voice was very amiable and did not point out names, many people immediately turned to look at Jhonas, Wang Zhong, and a few other people. These people had used inferior materials to pass off as good ones. Many people had personally witnessed this, and they could be considered to have been called out by Elder Yimo.
Various disdainful, mocking, and disdainful gazes looked over, but Jhonas completely ignored them. No one could tell that this fellow had the potential to be thick-skinned. As for Lao Wang, he was even more indifferent. He even smiled at those unfriendly gazes.
"Shameless!" Someone scolded in a low voice.
The materials for the pills that had been handed in would be returned. The Pill Refinery Hall would not be interested in these things that the pupils had given them. However, this was used to warn the pupils who had unrealistic pill refinery dreams that they should not waste their time if they did not have the money.
Since he had asked them to prepare level-7 materials, he naturally had to explain how to refine a level-7 pill. This obviously required a relatively good foundation. The group of people who could enter the Pill Refinery Hall were obviously qualified, but the other auditing students were far from it. However, Elder Yimo was not interested in teaching the auditing students one by one. At that moment, the moment he spoke, he simply started to explain how to refine a level-7 pill.
"The level-7 Glazed Crystal Spirit Replenishing Pill. This pill …"
Elder Yimo's voice was still pleasant to listen to, but the progress of this lesson had jumped too much. A large group of auditing students were instantly dumbfounded, but they quickly understood. Elder Yimo had already made a huge exception when he explained the basics of pill studies previously. It was impossible for him to teach them from the beginning. He was teaching the genius pupils in the Pill Refinery Hall who already had a good foundation. No one cared about the auditing students, and it all depended on their luck to comprehend it themselves.
If they could understand, they could listen. If they could gather the materials for experiments, they could do so. After all, this was not a charity hall.
Elder Yimo had already finished introducing some of the effects and characteristics of the level-7 Glazed Crystal Spirit Replenishing Pill. "Everyone knows that there are four steps in pill refinery: gathering materials, lighting up the furnace, merging the soul, and refining the pill.
"Gathering materials refers to the ratio of the materials, the age of the materials, the grade of the medicinal properties, the degree of freshness, and various other details. Take the level-7 Glazed Crystal Spirit Replenishing Pill as an example. There are 11 main ingredients …
"Lighting up the furnace, as the name implies, means lighting up a furnace. A good furnace is important, but just having a good furnace is not enough. A good pill fire is also needed …
"Merging the soul matches the pill furnace and allows the soul and the pill furnace to fuse. This is considered a further extension of lighting up the furnace. Any pill furnace has spirituality and is the embryo that breeds everything. If you are sincere to it, it will give you a corresponding return. It might be very difficult for beginners to reach the realm of merging their souls with the pill furnace so quickly, but there is a rather stupid but very effective method. Bathe in incense, meditate, or even kneel three times and kowtow nine times. As long as you are sincere enough, you can also build a relationship with the pill furnace. This is a process that beginners must go through …
"It can be said that the three steps mentioned above are all preparations for the most crucial step of pill refinery. Among the four steps, the word 'refinery' is the most important. Use your own spiritual power as a guide and your soul as a thought. You must constantly feel the process of spirituality gathering in the pill furnace and continuously adjust the direction of the gathering of spiritual energy in the pill …
"The method is very simple. Some of the steps that can be taken can only be considered as supplementary. The true 'refinery' can only be understood and cannot be explained. It requires the accumulation of a large amount of experience. If 10,000 people were to refine the same pill, they would have 10,000 different experiences and processes. There will never be a pill that is completely the same in this world, and it is definitely impossible to find two pills that are completely the same, even if they were produced from the same furnace.
"Some people say that every pill is unique. This is not an exaggeration at all. Everyone must find their own method and path. The teacher will lead the way, but the cultivation is up to the individual …"
Elder Yimo's voice sounded endlessly from the stone platform. Unlike the various hazy explanations of the basics of pill studies in the previous lesson, this lesson was mostly about the details.
Elder Yimo's explanation was rather thorough. It was said that the great path could only be understood and not explained. However, to almighty experts like Elder Yimo, they would always be able to find the most accurate words to express some obscure and difficult principles. Furthermore, the scene that came with the Sanskrit Sound of the Great Path made the entire lesson extremely vivid and three-dimensional. As a result, Lao Wang was truly intoxicated as he listened.
It was rather thorough and very clear!
However, this was evidently only Lao Wang's feelings. There was no need to talk about the Pill Refinery Hall pupils in front, but almost nine out of ten of the auditing students below were confused and could not make heads or tails of what was going on.
This was not just an issue of natural endowments and comprehension, but also because of the influence of civilization.
The Earth was a very special existence and was known as the Playground of the Gods. There had been the footprints of countless gods, and the inheritance of civilization was a fusion of many rivers. For example, even though humans had not grasped the so-called method of accumulating pills, 'pill refinery' had existed long before the Earth's dark era, and there were clear records of it. Even the Earth and the Holy Land had been researching this. However, due to the lack of spiritual influence, they were only limited to developing gold refinery and were unable to achieve success.
However, in terms of theory and knowledge, they were not lacking. As the saying went, those who had not eaten pork would have imagined how pigs would run. As a result, Wang Zhong felt that it was very easy and clear when he learned about pill refinery. In particular, Elder Yimo's lecture on the great path had a relatively large amount of inspiration. He understood immediately and felt that it was unimaginable.
Beside him, Jhonas had completely fallen asleep. It was fine when he listened to the general outline yesterday, but when he talked about the details today, his head simply hurt. The other students listening by the side all had bitter expressions on their faces as they listened. They almost pulled out their hair, feeling as if they were listening to heavenly books. Not to mention them, even the Pill Refinement Hall's pupils in front of them kept asking questions about certain details.
This was another sumptuous feast for the visual and auditory senses.
Lao Wang was extremely satisfied. Ever since he entered the Heavenly Gates, he felt that listening to Elder Yimo's lessons was the most interesting and the most essential. The skinny little old man on the stone platform who did not release any oppressive aura had become extremely imposing, not only in Lao Wang's eyes, but also in the eyes of the 1,500 new pupils.
When the lesson ended, many people had already formed groups of three to five.
Admittedly, the Three Halls in the Heavenly Gates were the most important division of circles. However, in reality, there was an even more important division of the entire Heavenly Gates circle, which was the organizations. These organizations were initiated by the pupils of the Heavenly Gates, and they spontaneously gathered according to their habits, hobbies, and status. This was the tighter union in the entire Heavenly Gates.
To be honest, those who came here were not simple. Learning and improving were only one aspect. Not everyone would have the opportunity to ascend. This place was more of an upper-class circle. They made connections, made friends, and mingled in the circle of the upper class. This was the main focus for most people to enter the Heavenly Gates. In fact, in the eyes of some people, mingling in the circle was more important than their studies.
The more famous ones were the level-8 Brotherhood. They only accepted pupils from level-8 civilizations to join them. Everyone in this circle was the children of powerful families who dominated a region in the Land. This circle was also commonly known as the "Crown Prince Society" by the other people in the Heavenly Gates. This circle was formed based on one's status.
For example, the Thunder Alliance could only be joined by outstanding pupils who cultivated thunder techniques. It was not only Combat Pupils who cultivated thunder techniques. In reality, many Weapon Refinery Pupils and Pill Refinery Pupils could do so as well. The Thunder Alliance was extremely powerful in the Heavenly Gates. Thunder techniques were known as the strongest and fierce representative of attacks. The leader of the Thunder Alliance was a Gold Titan Senior who had entered a few batches earlier. It was said that he had already accumulated his Gold Core and was preparing for the opportunity to ascend soon.
Another example was the unconventional "Pill One Association". Only the top experts in Pill Refinery could join. This was rather fair and did not look at one's civilization or background. Instead, one only looked at one's strength.
Even the tsundere Flying Pig Jhonas had one, but he was very straightforward. The "Heavenly Gates Chamber of Commerce" …
