Lu Yuan was refining pills next to the hot Sunspring!
Refining pills was a job that required a lot of skill, especially the control of fire. If there was even the slightest mistake, then the result would be a furnace of waste.
This was already Lu Yuan's third furnace of pills. The previous two furnaces had all turned into waste, wasting a lot of medicinal herbs for no reason.
Although he had directly obtained the contents of the 《Complete Alchemy Explanation》, in theory, he had gotten full marks and knew what to do at every step.
However, he was still a bit flustered when it came to actual practice. It was really easy to talk, but in reality, it was very difficult to actually do it.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan was mentally prepared in advance. When he first started refining pills, he only refined the simplest of pills. For example, the Soul Returning Pill had a very simple function, which was to restore soul power.
As for the effect, it was okay. For some Soul Masters and Soul Grandmasters, it was still quite useful. Lu Yuan used it to practice. After refining a few furnaces and becoming more familiar with alchemy, it wouldn't be too late to refine the Body Tempering Pill, Qi Tempering Pill, and Spirit Ascension Pill.
The Body Tempering Pill was naturally a pill used to temper one's physique. Only the Qi Tempering Pill was used to temper one's soulforce and make it purer. The Spirit Ascending Pill was used to increase one's soulforce.
Among them, the Body Tempering Pill and Qi Tempering Pill were naturally of a higher grade than the Soul Returning Pill. They were suitable for Soul Elders and Soul Ancestors, but they were still classified as low-grade pills. The Spirit Ascension Pill's grade was slightly higher, and Lu Yuan was preparing to refine it last.
Alchemy also relied on talent. Those with talent would be able to get started very quickly, but those without talent might not be able to achieve much even if they studied it for a lifetime.
Lu Yuan's talent was naturally considered to be above average. He had only wasted two furnaces of pills, but the third furnace was already slowly on the right track.
In addition to Lu Yuan's own perception, it was also related to his extremely high mental strength. With a high mental strength, it would be easier for him to refine pills.
He would be able to keenly feel the changes inside the pill.
"It's about time. I can reduce the fire. After a bit of warming, I can take it out of the furnace!" Feeling that the pill was slowly taking shape inside the furnace, Lu Yuan hurriedly removed most of the fire from the furnace, leaving only a few remnants to slowly nurture the pill.
A few minutes later!
"It's done!" Lu Yuan gently patted the cauldron with his right hand. Immediately, a few streaks of light flew out from the cauldron. With a casual grab, all of them were sucked into his hand.
Looking at the five smooth and round pills in his hand, Lu Yuan revealed a smile on his face. "Medium quality, not bad. I thought they were low quality!"
Elixirs were also divided into different grades. Basically, there were four grades: low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. Lu Yuan could actually refine a mid-grade elixir. After all, this was the first batch of elixirs that he had successfully refined.
"Is this a medicinal pill?" Seeing that Lu Yuan had finished refining, Zhu Zhuqing, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately walked up to Lu Yuan's side. Her beautiful eyes looked at the pill in Lu Yuan's hand, and her eyes were filled with surprise.
"En, this is a Soul Returning Pill. It can restore soul power. Do you want to try one?" Smiling at Zhu Zhuqing, Lu Yuan picked up a Soul Returning Pill and asked.
"No, don't even think of using me as a lab rat." Zhu Zhuqing refused decisively. Although the pill was pleasing to the eye, with its dark green color and faint fragrance, this was Lu Yuan's first batch. She didn't dare try it.
After all, she had seen Lu Yuan's first two batches of elixirs.
"Ai, what a pity. It's such a good thing, but you don't know what it is." Lu Yuan sighed.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan's face lit up with surprise. "Senior Rhinoceros, what are you doing here? Weren't you with Cher? "
"What?" Zhu Zhuqing's attention was drawn. She turned her head, her beautiful eyes sweeping the area, but there was no one there.
"Lu Yuan, are you seeing things? There's no one …" Before Zhu Zhuqing could finish, a pill was shoved into her mouth. She felt someone lift her chin, and with a gurgling sound, the pill went in.
Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly at the culprit in front of her. The air seemed to grow still.
One second. Two seconds!
"Ah!" Then there was an ear-piercing shriek.
"Lu Yuan, I'm going to kill you!" Zhu Zhuqing leapt up and tackled Lu Yuan to the ground. She opened her mouth wide and bit down on Lu Yuan's shoulder.
"Ugh!" Lu Yuan reached out and covered Zhu Zhuqing's mouth with one hand. He flipped over and pulled Zhu Zhuqing's delicate body into his embrace with the other hand.
"Zhuqing, calm down, calm down. Don't be impulsive. Impulsiveness is the devil!" Lu Yuan's hand was still clamped over Zhu Zhuqing's mouth. He gently patted her back as he tried to soothe her.
Being hugged by Lu Yuan, Zhu Zhuqing could not move even if she wanted to. She could only stop struggling, but her big eyes were fixed on Lu Yuan with a murderous look in her eyes.
"Ugh!" Zhu Zhuqing whimpered.
"You want me to let you go? Sure, I can let you go, but you can't bite me, okay? "Lu Yuan said.
"Ugh!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded.
"Then I'll let you go!" Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing didn't seem to have any strange movements, Lu Yuan slowly removed his hand from Zhu Zhuqing's mouth.
"Ah, hiss!" Just as his hand was removed, Zhu Zhuqing seized the opportunity and bit the back of Lu Yuan's hand.
It was so painful that Lu Yuan sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Humph!" Seeing Lu Yuan grimacing in pain, Zhu Zhuqing snorted proudly. "You deserve it. Who told you to deliberately play with me and feed me this kind of thing when I wasn't paying attention?"
"Alright, I reap what I sow, okay? You little kitty, since when did you like to bite people so much?" Lu Yuan shook his head as he looked at the obvious teeth marks on the back of his hand.
It hurt a little, but it was impossible. He still had the Soul Bone in his hand. Furthermore, with Lu Yuan's current physical strength, even if Zhu Zhuqing broke her teeth, she wouldn't be able to bite through his skin. Lu Yuan purposely made such a big expression just to let Zhu Zhuqing vent her anger. Otherwise, this little kitty wouldn't let him off easily.
"Zhuqing, how do you feel after eating this pill? The effect should be quite obvious. There's no problem with this Soul Returning Pill. I know how to refine it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fed it to you. I can't bear to see anything happen to you, "Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"Hmph, you're still talking about it. You bad guy, you actually used me as a lab rat."
Zhu Zhuqing glared at Lu Yuan. Then, she carefully felt the changes in her body and said, "The effect is quite obvious. I can feel a warm current flowing in my body. It should be recovering my Soul Power. It's just that my Soul Power is full now, so there's not much change in my Soul Power. However, this pill is effective."
