As for the second reason, Zhao Fu had also found a way to resolve it, which was to collect the soldiers' blood and fuse it into the Attribute Stone, forming a special Bloodline Attribute Stone that could then be used as the foundation for the Philosopher's Stone.
As the Philosopher's Stone was being condensed, Zhao Fu once again had a soldier come to the center of the alchemy formation.
Zhao Fu once again used the method of having the soldier condense the Philosopher's Stone himself because that would allow him to display the Philosopher's Stone's power, and the compatibility between the two sides would be higher.
The soldier sat cross-legged within the alchemy formation, and Zhao Fu activated the formation. A wave of energy spread out, and the Attribute Stones gave off a faint light as energy flowed towards the soldier.
The soldier closed his eyes and absorbed the energy. Five minutes passed, ten minutes passed, half an hour passed, but nothing happened.
After half a day, a powerful energy burst out of the soldier's body, causing a gale to spread out. A black aura ignited on the soldier's body, and his power rose sharply.
After a while, the soldier opened his eyes and smiled as he said, "Your Majesty! I've already condensed the Philosopher's Stone. "
Zhao Fu gave a trace of a smile and said, "Show me the Philosopher's Stone's power."
Hearing this, the soldier used the Philosopher's Stone's power. Alchemy power spread out, and the soldier's body started to mechanize. It was a bit deeper than before, and the alchemy power poured into his arm, mechanizing it. However, it was not completely mechanized, and there was still some flesh left.
Even though it was not completely mechanized, he could feel that his power and control had become stronger, which was not a bad thing.
Zhao Fu smiled in satisfaction and had the soldier take out the Philosopher's Stone. It was a lychee-sized black crystal cube that gave off a faint light.
After looking at it, Zhao Fu had the soldier withdraw his body and check if there was anything wrong with his body.
After carefully examining his body, the soldier confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his body.
Zhao Fu finally relaxed, and he smiled. Qin had successfully condensed the Philosopher's Stone, and it could still be used by Qin.
Following this, Zhao Fu called over two more soldiers. One of them was at Stage 1-1, while the other was at Stage 1-3.
Zhao Fu had them enter the alchemy formation and have them condense their own Philosopher's Stones.
Half a day later, waves of powerful auras exploded out from their bodies, and a black aura flame appeared within their bodies, sending out wild gales that spread out.
After everything calmed down, the two soldiers came before Zhao Fu, and Zhao Fu examined their strength. He was quite shocked.
The person who had been at Stage 1-1 had gone up by five stages, directly reaching Stage 6-6. The person who had been at Stage 1-3 now had Stage 1-7 power, increasing by four stages.
This increase in strength was quite shocking. If they relied on their own cultivation, it would take a long time for them to have such strength, but now, they only needed to condense the Philosopher's Stone. No wonder the alchemy world's power was so high.
Afterwards, Zhao Fu called over a few people with different cultivations: Stage 3, Stage 4, Stage 5, Stage 6, and Stage 7. Zhao Fu had them enter the array and condense the Philosopher's Stone. Boom!
Boom! Boom …
Waves of powerful auras exploded out and waves of black aura flames burst forth from their bodies, giving rise to wild gales that spread out in all directions.
Their cultivations had all increased by quite a bit. The person with Stage 3 had increased by two stages, the person with Stage 4 had increased by one stage, the person with Stage 5 had increased by a bit, the person with Stage 6 had increased by a bit, and the person with Stage 7 had not increased at all.
From this, it could be seen that the higher one's cultivation was, the less the Philosopher's Stone's increase would be. After reaching Stage 7, there was no increase at all.
Even though their cultivation had not increased at Stage 7, that did not mean that it was useless. They still controlled the Philosopher's Stone's power, and they needed to continuously fuse with the Philosopher's Stone to increase its power.
Suddenly!
Zhao Fu thought of something and took out a Blood God Pill and gave it to the soldier who had just reached Stage 6. This was the soldier with Stage 1 cultivation from before.
The soldier received the Blood God Pill and followed Zhao Fu's orders. He sat cross-legged on the ground and started to refine it, and a blood-red aura continuously rose up from his body.
A few hours later, a powerful aura spread out from the soldier's body. Now, that soldier's cultivation had reached Stage 1.
Zhao Fu couldn't help but laugh in delight. A Philosopher's Stone could increase one's cultivation by five stages, and a Blood God Pill could increase one's cultivation by four stages. If someone with Stage 1 cultivation used it, that person would immediately have the strength of a Stage 1 soldier.
Ordinary people could reach Stage 1 in a few days, so it was almost negligible. With a Philosopher's Stone and a Blood God Pill, Qin would have a Stage 1 soldier, which was simply too shocking.
By now, even if Qin lost more Stage 1 soldiers, they would be able to quickly make up for it, greatly increasing their foundation. In fact, if Zhao Fu wanted to, he could even raise all of Qin's soldiers to Stage 1.
Qin's strength and foundation were far more powerful than ordinary factions, and it was even more powerful than some of the Royal Kingdoms in the outer regions.
Even though their basic soldiers were already at Stage 2, they did not have all of their residents at Stage 1 cultivation. Now that Qin could do this, the gap between Qin and the Royal Kingdoms in the inner regions had once again closed.
Now, their advantage was their basic Stage 2 soldiers. If Qin could also raise their basic Stage 2 soldiers, Qin would not be weaker than the Royal Kingdoms in the inner regions, and they would not need to fear any Royal Kingdoms.
Thinking to there, Zhao Fu couldn't help but feel quite excited. Qin had only developed for ten years, and it was already more powerful than a faction that had developed for hundreds of years.
Moreover, the Philosopher's Stone was more beneficial to the weak than the Blood God Pill, but the Blood God Pill was more valuable. This was because the Philosopher's Stone did not have any effects on those with Stage 7 cultivation, while the Blood God Pill was effective on anyone, including higher-beings.
Now that the Philosopher's Stone had been successfully researched, if Zhao Fu wanted to increase Qin's overall strength, he would have to make the Philosopher's Stone widely available so that all of Qin's soldiers would have a Philosopher's Stone.
As such, there was a problem. As mentioned before, Yin, Yang, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Ice, and Spatial attributes were quite easy for Great Qin to obtain, but Time attribute items were quite difficult for Great Qin to obtain.
