That was why everyone was so shocked after Tang Ao had successfully refined the Chongyang Elixir. Xiao Zhen and the other two thought that even though they could not refine the Chongyang Elixir, Lin Ruchang would definitely be able to. However, the three of them did not know that Lin Ruchang could not refine the Chongyang Elixir either. It was exactly because he could not refine the Chongyang Elixir that he knew how difficult it was to refine. That was why Lin Ruchang was so excited after Tang Ao had successfully refined the Chongyang Elixir.
Seeing that Tang Ao was still on the alchemy platform, many people were looking forward to the next round. Not long ago, Tang Ao had already refined the most difficult nine-star elixir, the Chongyang Elixir. Therefore, there was almost no suspense in this round of assessment. Tang Ao should be refining the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir. If Tang Ao refined the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir, it would be easy to determine which was the most difficult elixir to refine, the Chongyang Elixir or the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir.
Naturally, Tang Ao did not disappoint them. When Tang Ao was choosing the spiritual herbs, he used the identity jade card of the Alchemy Guild's elder to choose the spiritual herbs needed to refine the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir. Tang Ao knew the elixir recipe of the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir. Refining the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir required a total of 29 spiritual herbs. However, with Tang Ao's experience in refining elixirs, Tang Ao felt that the Nanyang Ground Grass, the Withered Wood Vine, and the Star Grass could be replaced with another spiritual herb.
After Tang Ao had carefully analyzed the uses of the spiritual herbs in the elixir recipe and their roles in refining the supreme-grade Vitality Enhancing Elixir, Tang Ao found that the three spiritual herbs were used to combine the effects of the elixir. In the usual refining of elixirs, the three spiritual herbs were often used to combine the effects of the elixir. However, Tang Ao knew that if the three spiritual herbs were used separately, there would be no problem. However, if they were used together, it would produce elixir poison in the body of the martial artist. Also, the poison was rather tricky. With the expertise of pill refinement on the Flying Star Continent, there were probably no pills that could resolve it yet.
After pondering for a while, Tang Ao decided to exchange the Nanyang Ground Weevil, Withered Wood Vine, and Heavenly Star Grass for a spiritual herb called the Hundred Flower Fruit. Unlike the Nanyang Groundling, Withered Wood Rattan, and Heavenly Star Grass, the Hundred Flower Fruit was not used to harmonize the medicinal effects, but to suppress the medicinal effects of some spiritual herbs. In the recipe of the supreme-grade Essence Nourishing Pill, Tang Ao discovered that the reason why there was a conflict of medicinal properties was because of the extreme Yin attribute Frost Grass.
Therefore, after Tang Ao used the Hundred Flower Fruit to suppress the medicinal effect of the Frost Grass, he could avoid the conflict of pharmacology. In this way, there was naturally no need to harmonize the medicinal effect. Fortunately, Tang Ao had some of the Hundred Flower Fruit with him. Otherwise, if Tang Ao asked for more Hundred Flower Fruits, there would be a problem. That was because the recipe of the supreme-grade Essence Nourishing Pill in Tang Ao's hands was the result of thousands of years of practice and improvement by the martial artists of the Flying Star Continent. If Tang Ao directly said that there was a problem with the recipe, it would inevitably cause another dispute. Right now, Tang Ao did not have the time to do such boring things. The most he could do was to make a copy of the supreme-grade Essence Nourishing Pill that he improved and put it in the library of the Alchemy Guild.
Whoever was fated to see it in the future would naturally be able to see it. Or, if one day some alchemist realized that the Nanyang Ground Weevil, Withered Wood Vine, and Heavenly Star Grass were three supplementary spiritual herbs that were harmful when used together, he might be able to infer that the Hundred Flower Fruit was needed to suppress the medicinal effect of the Frost Grass. However, this was a story for later. After receiving the medicinal materials for refining the elixirs, many alchemists had already started refining the Essence Nourishing Pill.
