Time is a priceless consumable, whether you like it or not, it will always be consumed.
As he continued refining, it was already close to 3: 30 in the afternoon.
The Body Tempering Liquid in Song Shuhang's hands was nearing the end.
Just like yesterday, when he added the 41st ingredient, the Body Tempering Liquid in the pot changed.
Because of his previous experience, Song Shuhang calmly added water this time. After a while, he threw the Fresh Overlord Branch, Nine-Yang Scarlet Bamboo slices, Deep Sea Frost Crystal, and Snow Demon Core into the pot.
When the liquid in the pot was polarized, Song Shuhang directly increased the heat to the maximum.
After everything was done, Song Shuhang finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Everything was going smoothly, whether he could succeed or not depended on the end!
Oh right, he still had to be prepared to face the 'combination of all the stenches in the world' that might appear later.
Four minutes later.
Boom …
The lid of the pot was once again blown away by the high pressure. Black smoke sprayed out from the pot, and the indescribable stench filled the entire room.
Song Shuhang was already prepared and held his breath — although he didn't know how the stench was invading his sense of smell through various parts of his body, holding his nose and holding his breath could alleviate the stench to a certain extent.
"Ugh? What is this smell? "Medicine Master was strong and his five senses were sharp. Especially his sense of smell, it had already reached about 300 times that of an ordinary person.
This strange stench entered his nose and mouth, and Medicine Master immediately felt unwell.
This had already reached the level of a biological weapon, right? If an ordinary person smelled it for a while, their face would turn pale, and they would vomit to the point of foaming at the mouth!
If it wasn't for his strength, and the fact that he often refined pills and endured the stench of failure, he might have already knelt down when the stench assaulted him.
"If this thing is refined, it will be a nightmare for First Stage cultivators who have opened their Nose Aperture and Second Stage True Masters who can't control their sense of smell." Medicine Master murmured. He stretched out his hand and created a gust of wind, dispersing the extremely smelly black fog.
"Even though I've smelled it once, I still can't get used to it. I feel like I won't have any appetite for the next few days. "Song Shuhang also complained.
"Did you succeed?" Medicine Master asked.
"The stench is coming out. It should be a success, right?" Song Shuhang picked up the hot pot lid. This lid was thrown away every time. Even if it was tempered glass, it would be smashed to pieces sooner or later, right?
Apothecary pinched his nose and moved closer to the hotpot to take a look. At the bottom of the pot, there was a thin layer of black paste. It was transparent and had a pungent smell.
He stretched out his finger and curled it in the air. A drop of medicinal liquid was picked up and fell into his mouth.
Carefully feeling the medicinal effects of the Body Tempering Liquid in his mouth, Apothecary revealed a satisfied smile: "As expected."
Roughly estimating, it was half as effective as his simplified Body Tempering Liquid.
Logically speaking, the stronger the effects of the pills used by cultivators, the better. However, the simplest Body Tempering Liquid, when its medicinal effects were reduced to a certain extent, unexpectedly displayed a special effect!
The old version of the Body Tempering Liquid had a powerful medicinal effect. Even the elite disciples recruited by the various sects would have to cultivate for several months to half a year before they could consume it. They would have to stimulate their Qi and blood to the limit and adjust their physical condition to the peak before they could consume it.
After going through Apothecary's simplified Body Tempering Liquid, the elite disciples of the various sects would also have to cultivate for an entire month before they could consume it.
However, the medicinal effects of the Body Tempering Liquid only needed to be reduced further. The disciples in the sects only needed to adjust their physical condition slightly before they could consume it.
Afterwards, after the body has been tempered and the body's strength has increased, they could consume the higher quality Body Tempering Liquid. This would greatly reduce the amount of time needed to nurture the disciples in the early stages.
One had to know that the time for disciples to build their foundation was a race against time. The best time to build their foundation was only two years from the age of four to six. The earlier they could consume the Body Tempering Liquid, the better.
More importantly, Song Shuhang's method of refining the Body Tempering Liquid didn't require him to do anything special. He only needed to immediately change the refining steps when there was a mistake in the forty-first step of refining the Simplified Body Tempering Liquid.
This method was simply a patch to Apothecary's Simplified Body Tempering Liquid. It further perfected the Simplified Body Tempering Liquid recipe and could also greatly reduce the consumption of medicinal ingredients by 'pill refining apprentices'.
Seeing Apothecary's satisfied smile, Song Shuhang let out a sigh of relief and asked: "Can this help Senior perfect the Simplified Body Tempering Liquid recipe?"
"It's not that easy. Your success in refining this time only proves that my idea of perfecting the pill recipe is feasible. I still need your cooperation in the next few days. I need to make some improvements to your pill refining method. Hehe, this trip was indeed the right one. "Apothecary was in a good mood.
Song Shuhang nodded: "I will do my best to cooperate with Senior."
Apothecary nodded his head in satisfaction. He took out a thick notebook and quickly recorded all kinds of data and details of the experiment.
He was known as a genius pill refining master and had some fame among the cultivators. However, his reputation as a genius and fame didn't fall on him just by sitting at home. From this thick notebook, it could be seen how much blood, sweat, and tears he had put into the study of pill refining. Moreover … this thick notebook had as many as thirty bookshelves in Apothecary's cave.
Behind every successful genius, there was an unimaginable amount of sweat.
Song Shuhang looked at Apothecary with an expression as if he wanted to say something.
Finally, he couldn't hold it in anymore: "Senior Apothecary, you said before that Great Master Tong Xuan's flying sword would arrive in about four to five hours. Calculating the time, it should be about time, right?"
《Vajra Foundation Building Fist Technique》, 《True Self Meditation Scripture》! Foundation building techniques that could truly let him enter the door of a cultivator!
As long as he thought of these two beginner cultivation techniques, Song Shuhang's heart would be stirred and he couldn't hold it in anymore. He couldn't wait to immediately obtain these two secret manuals.
"Haha, no rush, no rush. Great Master Tong Xuan's flying sword uses me as the coordinates. I will respond when the time comes. En, but let's return to your dormitory. The coordinates we set at the beginning was your dormitory. If there are no accidents, the flying sword should also fly there. "Apothecary smiled.
"Then we're going back now?" Song Shuhang asked expectantly.
"No rush. When I was observing your process of refining the Body Tempering Liquid, I verified the feasibility of many ideas in my mind. I need to record them first. En, if you're in a hurry, you can go back first. I'll catch up later. "Apothecary said.
Song Shuhang nodded his head.
"Then Senior, I'll go back to the dormitory first?"
"Go, go, youngsters are just too impatient." Medicine Master said as he stretched out his hand and threw a bunch of keys towards Song Shuhang.
It was the key to this house.
"I'll give you the keys. Since there are five floors, I don't need that many. I'll lend you the top floor to live in. It saves you the trouble of renting a house." Apothecary said without raising his head.
Since he had already bought the house, there was no point in leaving it empty. He might as well do Song Shuhang a favor.
Song Shuhang took the keys and didn't act pretentiously: "Thank you, Senior!"
He really needed a place where he wouldn't be disturbed. Also … he didn't have any extra money. Apothecary lending him a room was exactly what he needed, so he didn't stand on ceremony with Senior.
"Remember to lock the door!" Apothecary waved his hand and continued to write in his thick notebook.
Song Shuhang left with light footsteps.
