A newly promoted outer sect disciple of the Nine Earth Mountain Villa, a guy at the first layer of Qi Condensation, was actually going to start refining pills. This news spread like wildfire, rapidly spreading throughout the entire Nine Earth Mountain Villa.
Yang Chen's great name was also quickly mentioned by everyone. However, when it was mentioned, there were two kinds of emotions. When they heard that when Yang Chen entered the sect, he defeated Sun Haijing, who was at the third layer of Qi Condensation, everyone's expression was an "oh", full of astonishment. But when she heard that Yang Chen was in the first layer of the qi refining stage, he didn't do anything. After going to the Scriptures Pavilion to learn the 《Alchemy Beginner's Solution》, he was about to open the furnace for alchemy. The corresponding expression and tone quickly turned into "Chi"
"If a first layer of Qi Condensation can refine pills, then what are we, who have cultivated for over ten or twenty years, doing?" Regardless of whether it was official disciples or servants, they all had this kind of thought at the same time. Some even clamored out loud.
Everyone couldn't help but treat this matter as a joke. How many famous pill refiners had immersed themselves in the Dao of Pills for decades, centuries, or even longer? How could there be this kind of guy who overestimated his own abilities and wanted to refine pills as soon as he came up? Not to mention refining pills, being able to control the fire well and not burn a few ordinary ingredients at the first layer of Qi Condensation was already an impressive performance.
Yang Chen didn't listen to these rumors in the slightest. He only had Shen Da make a trip to the market square and buy the cheapest pill furnace and a batch of ordinary ingredients. Even so, this purchase also completely squandered the remaining spirit stones Yang Chen received from the Elegant Post Manor.
Carrying a large pile of ingredients and a pill furnace that couldn't be any more rotten, Yang Chen began his life of refining pills in seclusion. In the entire Nine Earth Mountain Villa, apart from Shen Da, He Lian, and the other three servants, no one was optimistic about Yang Chen. On the other hand, Shen Da and the others had personally witnessed Yang Chen's brilliant performance of easily removing the impurities of a Qi Nourishing Pill with his fingers, so they were extremely confident in Yang Chen.
However, everyone in the Nine Earth Villa, including Shen Da and He Lian, was curious about what Yang Chen wanted to refine. Regardless of whether it was successful or not, the ingredients Yang Chen was using were all common ingredients that could be bought in the mortal world. At most, they were a bit older, but they were far from being able to provide spirit force.
What kind of pill could he refine with these mortal herbs? If they could make that rotten pill cauldron smell a bit of medicine, it would be considered a complete success. This was what ninety-nine percent of the people in the Nine Earth Mountain Villa thought.
Of course, Chu Heng heard this news, but he didn't say anything in front of others. He only sneered in secret and secretly had a close disciple spread the news everywhere. It even reached the inner sect.
Thus, an outer sect disciple who didn't want to work hard and had delusions of reaching the heavens in a single step reached the ears of many inner sect disciples. Every disciple who heard this felt extremely disdainful towards this person called Yang Chen.
In his own small courtyard, Yang Chen opened up a room to be used as a pill room. After calling He Lian, who had some foundation in pill refining, over to help, he began to refine pills for the first time since his rebirth.
The pill recipe Yang Chen chose was not one that people knew of now. Instead, it was a pill called the Qi Seeking Pill that would only appear in three hundred years. The medicinal ingredients used to concoct this type of pill were all common medicinal ingredients. The resulting pill would not increase the user's spiritual energy, nor would it heal any injuries. Furthermore, it was completely useless to disciples who had entered the first layer of Qi Refining.
But for those preparatory disciples who had just started cultivating, this pill was a kind of pill that would make them go crazy. The Qi Seeking Pill, as the name suggested, was a pill that could find Qi. After taking this pill, an ordinary person's sensitivity to Qi activity would increase by several times. It was an excellent pill that could help one sense Qi.
This kind of pill, of course, would not let Yang Chen waste the precious medicinal ingredients in his medicine garden. Medicinal ingredients that were more than a thousand years old, even the most common medicinal herbs, would have extraordinary medicinal effects. Using the common medicinal ingredients bought in the market square was enough.
To He Lian, Yang Chen didn't explain it so clearly. He only warned her to pay attention to her own way of controlling fire. The preparatory work had already been completed by He Lian. Now, He Lian was surrounded by piles of sorted medicinal herbs, waiting for Yang Chen's instructions.
After everything was ready, Yang Chen sat on the praying mat on the ground. His hands stroked the ears of the low grade alchemy furnace in front of him and ignited the flame.
Last time he chose the fourth fire cultivation method. Naturally, what emerged from Yang Chen's hands was also the fourth fire. Two wisps of white flame emerged from Yang Chen's hands and gathered in the center of the alchemy furnace. The two wisps of flame were pulled into two spiral-shaped filaments in the middle of the alchemy furnace. They spiraled from the edge of the alchemy furnace to the middle of the alchemy furnace.
He hadn't even started the alchemy. Just this skill of controlling fire made He Lian, who was staring at him from the opposite side, give out a heartfelt admiration. In just a few days, it seemed that Yang Chen's ability to control fire had gone up a level, becoming more skillful. Because the thin fire filaments were pulled very thin, the heat of the flame could hardly be felt. One could only see a fine spiral inside the alchemy furnace. Who would have thought that it was all composed of flames?
"Red flower!" Yang Chen suddenly shouted. He Lian didn't dare to neglect. She hurriedly threw the already measured red flower into the alchemy furnace.
"Red ginseng!" After throwing the red flower, Yang Chen shouted again. He Lian had already been warned, so she didn't panic at all. She easily threw the red ginseng in.
As soon as the two medicinal herbs entered the alchemy furnace, they were swept up by the spiral flame and spun along with the flame. After just two spins, under He Lian's gaze, they slowly turned into a medicinal liquid.
These two medicinal herbs were all ordinary medicinal herbs. If one was not careful, they would be burnt. But at this moment, they had turned into a liquid, without any signs of being burnt. He Lian sighed in her heart. She had already grabbed another medicinal herb in her hands. She stared at the alchemy furnace, waiting for Yang Chen's instructions.
As the medicinal herbs were added in, He Lian finally found an anomaly. Yang Chen seemed to deliberately control the flame into a spiral shape, so that the melted medicinal liquid could rotate along the flame. There seemed to be another way. At least He Lian was very clear that even if she knew all the formulas and dosage, without Yang Chen's unique technique, it would be impossible to refine the elixir in Yang Chen's hands.
Two hours passed quickly. During these two hours, the alchemy furnace's heat was controlled at a very mysterious point. This was the key to refining the Qi-Seeking Elixir. If it was not just right, it would be a waste with no medicinal effect. At this moment, it was time to collect the elixir.
