Chu Chen felt a headache coming on and could not help but smile bitterly.
A Spirit Water Realm cultivation method required more than 100 spirit stones. Dozens of cultivation methods would cost thousands of spirit stones. Using thousands of spirit stones to upgrade a Spirit Water Realm cultivation method, this investment was too shocking!
The key point was that these thousands of spirit stones were really not easy to earn. When the time came, one would regret not having enough money. It turned out that Chu Chen had accepted elixir missions for a period of time and felt that he had plenty of money, but the reality was always cruel.
Life was endless and money was endless. It seemed that he still had to start from elixir.
Frowning and pondering for a long time, Chu Chen's mind flashed with thoughts. He did not forget that he had brought back a large amount of Snow Flood Dragon's meat during his trip to the Great Frozen Snow Mountain, and Elder Lingxin had preserved it for him. That Snow Flood Dragon was a ferocious beast that surpassed the tenth level of the Spirit Water Realm. Its flesh and blood contained endless spirit energy. If it was refined into elixir, it would definitely be able to refine an extremely high quality Level Two Body Tempering Elixir. Perhaps only by selling that kind of elixir would Chu Chen be able to gather thousands of spirit stones in a short time.
Early the next morning, Chu Chen came to the Ancient Alchemy Hall.
As soon as he entered, he only saw Elder Lingxin busying around. Unexpectedly, he did not see Senior Sister Qingyue.
"Kid, since you're here, refine elixir properly. Don't stick your head out and look around with me."
After closing the cauldron, Elder Lingxin's usually stern face actually had a hint of a smile on it. She, who was already very beautiful, became even more flirtatious. "Your Senior Sister Qingyue went out to do a mission with someone else. It will be some time before she returns."
Hearing that Qingyue went out, Chu Chen could not help but feel a little worried. After all, they had not seen each other for a while. Now that he finally came, he could not see her again.
"Congratulations on condensing your first drop of Spirit Water."
Looking at Elder Lingxin's gratified face, Chu Chen felt a surge of warmth in his heart. In the entire Biquan Xianzong, there were not many people who cared about him.
Apart from Little Junior Sister, Senior Sister Qingyue was another. Although Elder Lingxin seemed to be engrossed in refining medicine and rarely spoke much to him, she was genuinely concerned about him.
"Don't be arrogant after entering the Spirit Water Realm. You must know that there is always someone better than you." When Elder Lingxin put on the airs of an elder, there was another kind of beauty. "The Spirit Water Realm is only the beginning of cultivating the Great Dao. You must guard against arrogance and rashness. You must be more attentive and hardworking than others."
"Thank you for your teachings, Elder Lingxin. I understand." Chu Chen bowed respectfully.
"Also, thank you for the Phoenix Flame Incense you gave me last time. It's a good thing." As Elder Lingxin spoke, she walked towards another smaller medicine furnace and lowered the earth fire.
"This thing is useless to me." Chu Chen smiled honestly.
"The Phoenix Flame Incense is the main ingredient for refining the Face Fixing Pill. It can make a woman's appearance forever stay at 17 years old. It's a rare treasure. I have to think about how to thank you." Elder Lingxin turned around and smiled faintly.
"It's enough for Elder Lingxin to teach me how to refine medicine. Speaking of which, I haven't learned the Furnace Alchemy Technique yet. Why don't I ask Elder to teach me?"
Hearing Chu Chen's request, Elder Lingxin couldn't help but laugh. Only then did she realize that Chu Chen was already able to successfully refine the Second Stage Realm Pill. However, he had been refining the pills one by one.
It was all because she didn't teach him the Furnace Alchemy Technique. Although it was easy to refine the pills one by one, the efficiency was extremely low.
Moreover, many pills didn't need to be of high quality. Instead, they needed to be produced in large quantities. At this time, the Furnace Alchemy Technique must be used to refine the pills one by one.
This was generally a skill that only advanced pharmacists could learn and master. Chu Chen's current strength could be considered to have reached this level.
"With your talent, I'm afraid that you'll be able to learn the Furnace Alchemy Technique by reading the books in my study. However, I'll still give you some pointers so that you can succeed as quickly as possible," Elder Lingxin said thoughtfully.
"Thank you, Elder. I want to refine the Second Stage Snow Dragon Body Quenching Pill." Chu Chen didn't hide anything and went straight to the point.
"You've entered the Spirit Water Realm. Indeed, it's time to start refining. Very good. I like people like you who have plans for their own cultivation."
"I want to use the Snow Dragon Body Quenching Pill to make money."
"…"
Elder Lingxin could only be speechless towards this disciple who only cared about money. However, refining pills for money was still refining pills. Although Elder Lingxin didn't quite agree, she still patiently began to teach Chu Chen the Furnace Alchemy Technique.
The 'furnace trial' chose the First Stage 'Beauty Nourishing Pill'. One furnace could refine 12 Beauty Nourishing Pills. Chu Chen couldn't help but be a little excited.
The Furnace Alchemy Technique was really too labor-saving. To refine one pill at a time, it would take 12 furnaces to refine 12 pills.
If he used the Tai Chi Yin Yang Alchemy Technique and the Tai Yi Purple Blood Furnace, he would need to refine six furnaces. Moreover, using the Tai Yi Purple Blood Furnace was also a huge consumption for him.
He was almost unable to endure three furnaces in a row, let alone six furnaces.
However, the Furnace Alchemy Technique could solve the problem in one furnace. The time consumed was almost the same as refining one pill. The efficiency could be considered to be more than ten times higher.
According to Elder Lingxin, Chu Chen was only in the Spirit Water Realm at the moment. He could barely refine 12 pills in a small furnace. As his realm increased, he would be able to refine 18 pills in a medium furnace and 24 pills in a large furnace.
After all, refining pills required the consumption of the pharmacist's spiritual power. If one's cultivation wasn't enough, regardless of whether it was the quantity or quality of high-grade pills, it would be greatly limited.
Under the supervision of Elder Lingxin, Chu Chen's first batch of Beauty Pill was soon out of the furnace.
After removing the furnace lid, Chu Chen's eyes dimmed as he looked at the spiritual power rising from all directions.
"How is it?" Elder Lingxin asked with concern.
"Only 40%." Chu Chen's expression was rather disappointed.
"40% success rate is not worse than me in the past." Elder Lingxin rarely comforted him. "This Furnace Alchemy Technique is something that consumes a lot of spiritual power. You used to refine one pill at a time. Now that you're refining 12 pills at once, it's normal that your spiritual power is not enough. After all, you've only condensed one drop of spiritual water and your spiritual power is not enough to support it. Just refine more pills in the future. In fact, most pharmacists only have a success rate of 20 to 30%."
"Elder Lingxin, I'm not talking about the success rate. I'm talking about the rate of rare-grade pills." Chu Chen scratched his head awkwardly. "If we're talking about the success rate, it's 80%. I only failed two pills."
Elder Lingxin was petrified on the spot. The first time he used the Furnace Alchemy Technique, he actually had a 40% rate of rare-grade pills and a 90% success rate.
Chu Chen's existence could only be described as heaven-defying. She had seen many amazing pharmacists, but a disciple who had just condensed one drop of spiritual water actually had such a rate of rare-grade pills on his first try. This was too ridiculous.
