Returning to the inn, Ye Mo calmed himself down and started his pill refining preparations.
Entering the Genius Space, Ye Mo took out the Ground Demon Cauldron. His eyes lit up. This was the cauldron of the Pill Devil, capable of increasing the success rate of pill refinement to 50%. Basically, with this cauldron, even the worst pill refiner would be able to successfully refine pills.
However, in a competition of pill refining techniques, it wasn't about the success rate, but rather the purity of the pill and the difficulty of the pill refinement.
The same elixir would be refined by different alchemists. The higher the level of the alchemist, the higher the purity of the elixir refined. A top-notch alchemist would be able to refine pills with Pill Veins and even make the elixir emit a pill fragrance.
"Let's try refining the Supreme Huang Pill!"
Ye Mo opened the lid of the cauldron and threw the ingredients needed to cultivate the Supreme Emperor Pill into the cauldron. Taking a deep breath, Ye Mo closed the lid of the cauldron. Placing one hand on the cauldron, he ignited a flame and started activating his Fire Attribute Profound Qi.
A moment later, the entire cauldron turned red. Accompanied by an explosion, the melting process was completed.
Ye Mo floated in the air and opened the cauldron. When he opened it, his jaw dropped. There were no pills in the cauldron. It was just a pile of muddy stuff. Only one pill could be considered good, and it was not a round pill.
"Is my pill refining technique that bad? I clearly channeled my Profound Qi according to the instructions on the Iron Pill Pill Scroll, and I even used the Ground Demon Lightning, which increases the success rate by 50%. But I still failed. Logically speaking, this cauldron should be able to refine at least 10 Supreme Huang Pills. "
Ye Mo was very depressed.
"Ye Mo, everything has its difficulties," Hong Ling said. "Although your Grave Dragon Power can raise the purity of the pills to a perfect level, you haven't refined any pills in a long time. It won't be easy for you to succeed in a single attempt."
Ye Mo nodded.
"Let's continue."
Ye Mo sighed and cleared away the dregs of the pills before throwing in the medicinal herbs again.
After a series of attempts, Ye Mo managed to grasp a hint of the technique. In order to successfully cultivate a pill, he had to control his own fire elemental Profound Qi to the extreme and circulate it according to the instructions on the Iron Pill Pill Scroll.
Following that, Ye Mo stayed in the Genius Space for a whole month. Ye Mo started experimenting with all sorts of pill refining techniques. His pill refining techniques were finally not as standard.
This was also the first time he had successfully refined the Supreme Huang Pill.
"Success! After a month of bitter training, I've finally concocted the Supreme Emperor Pill with one hundred percent success rate!"
Ye Mo sighed.
However, this one month of hard work was worth it. The successful concoction of the Supreme Huang Pill had also laid the foundation for him to concoct other pills.
Not only had Ye Mo used up all of his 18 million Reincarnation Pills, but he had also used up three Immortal Weapons. In other words, he had used up five Immortal Weapons in order to practice refining rank eight pills for the past month.
And he was only trying to refine rank eight pills. If he tried to refine rank nine pills, the amount of medicinal herbs needed would be even more terrifying. Furthermore, the pills Ye Mo cultivated were basically all failures that couldn't be sold.
Ye Mo only had one type of pill that could be used to refine rank nine pills – the Green Ink Grass. But Ye Mo wasn't going to use it. He was going to use the Green Ink Grass to refine Spirit Pills. In the future, when he broke through to the Spirit Realm, he would need to use up a lot of Spirit Pills.
"Looks like I'll have to think of a way to get some money."
Ye Mo thought about it. Apart from refining seals and selling them, the fastest way to earn money was to enlighten the pills.
But cultivating seals here wasn't the right place. Enlightening the pills was the only way.
With that thought in mind, Ye Mo left the Genius Space. A month in the Genius Space was equivalent to four days in the outside world. With enough materials, Ye Mo was confident that he would be able to reach rank nine pill refining before heading to the Yang Clan.
All he needed to do was raise his success rate to 100 percent. As for the purity of the pills, with the Tomb Dragon Power, he didn't have to worry about that.
Because he had been to the exchange a few times, Ye Mo was very familiar with the place. Not long after, he entered the exchange.
But this time, Yang Rong wasn't there. The person who greeted him was the old man who had come to the exchange for the first time.
"Where's your young lady?"
Ye Mo asked.
After all, he was familiar with Yang Rong. Last time, when he sold three Immortal Weapons, Yang Rong had given him 30 million Reincarnation Pills without any processing fees.
"Mr. Ye, have you taken a fancy to my young lady?" The old man said. "You've come to the exchange again and again. Let me remind you, you better not have any designs on my young lady. She's caught the eye of the genius alchemist of the Yang Clan, Yang Qingshu. He's also the genius with the most strength to compete with the genius of the Pill Clan for the top three."
The old man couldn't help but remind Ye Mo.
"Yang Qingshu!"
Ye Mo silently remembered the name. To be able to compete with the genius of the Pill Clan, he must be very powerful.
"Manager Yang, you've misunderstood. Even if I like your young lady, she might not be interested in me. I have something to discuss with your young lady."
Ye Mo said.
"That's for the best."
Manager Yang breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Ye Mo would chase after his young lady. He said, "The Pill Refining Competition is going to be held soon? The young lady is going to participate as well and is in the midst of preparations. So, I've been entrusted with all the matters of the exchange. "
"I want to use my Immortal Weapons to exchange for pills."
Ye Mo revealed the purpose of his visit.
"What pills?"
Manager Yang asked.
"Divine Pill!"
"Divine Pill? How many do you want? According to the old rules, one Immortal Weapon minus the processing fees will be 9 million Reincarnation Pills. If you want to exchange for Divine Pills, one Immortal Weapon will be 900 Divine Pills. "
"I have five Immortal Weapons here. I want to exchange all of them for Divine Pills."
Ye Mo took out the last five Immortal Weapons.
Manager Yang checked them but didn't ask Ye Mo why he had so many Immortal Weapons. After confirming that they were Immortal Weapons, he said, "Wait here for a moment."
A moment later, Manager Yang came back with a bag full of Divine Pills. Ye Mo counted and confirmed that there were 4,500 Divine Pills in total before leaving the exchange.
Returning to the inn, Ye Mo closed the door and took out the Genius Badge. He asked Xiao Jing to stand guard beside him before entering the Genius Space again.
"This is the Divine Realm. It's the best pill for a Divine Realm expert's cultivation. But I can't bear to eat it now."
Ye Mo spread out the Divine Pills and couldn't help but sigh. Five Immortal Weapons for 4,500 Divine Pills. If it was a normal warrior, consuming a dozen pills a day was something a normal family could afford.
But if Ye Mo wanted to increase his cultivation speed to the maximum, he needed to consume at least a hundred Divine Pills.
After adding the Tomb Dragon Power into the Divine Sovereign Pills, the impurities within the Divine Sovereign Pills were all removed. Runes appeared on the surface of the pills as they flickered with radiance. Thereafter, a pill fragrance was emitted from the surface of the pills.
"Ye Mo, what did you do to the pills?" The Dead Soul Demon Emperor asked. "You raised the purity of the pills to a perfect level, without any impurities."
The Dead Soul Demon Emperor was shocked when he saw Ye Mo's method.
"This is one of the effects of the Tomb Dragon Power," Ye Mo said. "I used to be broke, so I used this method. If I sell these pills now, I'm afraid the price will increase tenfold."
