"Humph, what if I use seahorse urchins to refine the Spirit Returning Golden Pill? What are you going to do? "
Seeing the Blue Clothed Shop's waiter determined that he couldn't refine the pill, Ling Dong was slightly angry, but he also remembered his plan to earn Reiki.
Unlike the Heavenly Dipper Continent, in the Wood Puppet World, Reiki was the cornerstone of all cultivation. Like the Heavenly Dipper Continent, gold and silver still had great benefits, but in the Wood Puppet World, gold and silver were at most a kind of material for refining.
But in the Wood Puppet World, Reiki took into account the dual attributes of cultivation and currency. Without Reiki, relying on normal cultivation, Ling Dong might not be able to break through from First Order Star Transformation Stage to Second Order Star Transformation Stage in ten years.
However, with a lot of Reiki, Ling Dong only spent a year and two months to break through to Second Order Star Transformation Stage. If, if the Reiki was more abundant, Ling Dong estimated that his cultivation speed could be faster.
And this time, coming to Clear Ancient City, Ling Dong had the intention of earning Reiki.
Like other cultivators, looking at the market demand, going to the vast forests and mountains of the Wood Puppet World to collect spirit medicines, or even risking their lives to hunt Demon Spirits, and then earning Reiki that was not proportional to time, was not what Ling Dong was willing to do.
After coming to the Wood Puppet World for more than a year, Ling Dong had considered many things.
In the Heavenly Dipper Continent, Ling Dong, because of his rebirth, was proficient in alchemy, talisman, refining, and array. Every one of them, as long as Ling Dong was willing, could bring a lot of benefits to Ling Dong.
But the Wood Puppet World was different. The starting point of the Wood Puppet World was higher, and its development was broader. If Ling Dong wanted to be proficient in all aspects, he would follow in the footsteps of his previous life. Whether it was alchemy, talisman, refining, or array, he would not be proficient in any of them.
Ling Dong's rich life experience told him that he had to focus on one aspect in order to achieve anything. Rather than having a thousand birds in the forest, it was better to have a single bird in the water.
Without a doubt, Ling Dong chose to specialize in alchemy. This was not only because alchemy was related to one's cultivation speed, but also because alchemy was related to one's cultivation speed. By refining alchemy himself, Ling Dong could save a lot of cultivation costs.
Moreover, after coming out of Connecting Heaven Palace, Ling Dong's alchemy skills not only made him a true Pill King on the Heavenly Dipper Continent, but he was also vaguely the number one Pill King on the continent. Moreover, alchemy was far above all of Ling Dong's four abilities.
Actually, there was a rule in True Dipper Sect as well. If a Pill King from the Lower World joined True Dipper Sect, he could immediately become a disciple in green robes. However, Ling Dong did not want to become a pill slave.
Therefore, Ling Dong did not just want to vent his anger. He had his own reasons for doing so.
"Hmph, if you can use the seahorse urchin to refine the Spirit Returning Golden Pill, I will … I will …"
"Wait, both of you, don't be angry!" Just as the waiter was about to swear an oath, Shopkeeper Yin hastily interrupted the waiter and said, "Che Jian, shut up!"
"Both of you, my waiter is indeed in the wrong. His mouth is really too cheap! How about this, if both of you can refine the Spirit Returning Golden Pill, both of you will get a 20% discount when you want to buy herbs from my shop in the future. Also, I will definitely ask this waiter to give you a small gift as an apology! "Seeing that the situation was about to escalate, Shopkeeper Yin hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
"Hmph, a small gift is not necessary …"
"Look at how arrogant you are, as if you really need me to apologize to you. Refine the Spirit Returning Golden Pill first!" Seeing that Ling Dong was so arrogant, Che Jian became even more arrogant as he sneered.
"Fine, I will let you, this ignorant guy, open your eyes today. If I refine the Spirit Returning Golden Pill, I don't need your small gift as an apology. I only need you to respectfully kowtow to me three times in front of this shop! "Ling Dong said proudly.
Che Jian was sure that Ling Dong was bragging. He did not think much and scolded. "As long as you can use the seahorse urchin to refine the Spirit Returning Golden Pill, let alone three kowtows, I will kowtow to you even if it's ten kowtows …"
Che Jian had just finished speaking hatefully when his voice stopped. To be able to reach Level Three Star Transformation, even if his brain was a bit lacking, it would not be that bad. He immediately realized that his words had gone too far.
However, what was said was like spilled water. There was no way to take it back. Moreover, he firmly believed that Ling Dong was a cheated rookie. Otherwise, he would have been a waiter in Wanquan Hall for more than ten years in vain!
"Fine, I ask the shopkeeper to be a witness! Three days later, I will bring the Spirit Returning Golden Pill to let you open your eyes … "
"Wait, three days later. Who knows which shop you bought the Spirit Returning Golden Pill from three days later, or if you refined it yourself? The Spirit Returning Golden Pill is not expensive. Who doesn't know how to buy some to put up a front? "Che Jian directly interrupted Ling Dong's words and sneered.
"Ignorant!" Ling Dong sneered. "How can the medicinal properties of the Spirit Returning Golden Pill refined from seahorse urchin be the same as the medicinal properties of the Spirit Returning Golden Pill refined from the Golden Crow's Gallbladder?"
Hearing Ling Dong's scolding, Che Jian froze for a moment before quibbling, "I still say the same thing. Three days later, who knows if the thing you bring back was refined by yourself?"
Ling Dong was angered by Che Jian's unreasonable provocation. Just as he was about to explode, Shopkeeper Yin hastily opened his mouth and said, "The two of you, my Wanquan Hall's business is quite comprehensive. In this back hall, there is a pill refining room that is specially rented to alchemists. I see that the two of you have just arrived in Qinggu City and should not have anywhere to go. If you want to refine pills, there is no harm in practicing in my Wanquan Hall's pill refining room. For a month, I will not take a single cent!"
Hearing Shopkeeper Yin's warm greeting, Ling Dong was a bit hesitant. What was this Wanquan Hall like? Rashly entering was not too appropriate.
"What, scared? Hearing that you want to refine pills on the spot, you're going to show your true colors? Hmph! "Che Jian began to mock and ridicule him from the side.
Yang Cheng, who was standing next to Ling Dong, was very angry. However, Yang Cheng also saw Ling Dong's hesitation and hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Ling, the reputation of this Wanquan Hall is excellent. Many of the red-clothed senior brothers in the sect have come here to buy pills!"
"Okay, Ling Dong will borrow the treasured land of Wanquan Hall today to open your dog eyes!" With Yang Cheng's words, Ling Dong's hesitation disappeared and his words were merciless.
With just a few words, Che Jian was furious. If it weren't for the fact that he was afraid of Ling Dong and Yang Cheng's strength, he would have taken the initiative to attack.
It was unknown what Shopkeeper Yin was thinking, but he didn't care about Che Jian's opinion and led Ling Dong to the pill refining room of Wanquan Hall.
Although the entrance of Wanquan Hall wasn't big, the area behind the door was very wide and there were at least a hundred rooms. Walking from one of the pill refining rooms, Ling Dong sensed no less than four or five strong or weak auras of fire. Moreover, there was a medicinal fragrance. Someone should be refining pills!
"Sir, this way please. This is the best pill refining room in the shop. It has all the necessary facilities and there is also a guard room outside, where people are arranged to wait. Please, this way, I will wait for the good news in the shop! " Along the way, Shopkeeper Yin did his job well. If it wasn't for the fact that he was in the early stage of the Quasi Star Realm, he would have looked completely harmless.
However, Ling Dong was still very vigilant. As the saying goes, all businessmen are evil, and all businessmen are evil. Although there was no lack of honest and trustworthy businessmen, it was necessary to be vigilant.
"Yang Cheng, you can sit outside and cultivate, but don't disturb me. I will come out in three days at most!" Ling Dong said three days, but he was still conservative.
According to Ling Dong's pill refining speed in the Tiangang Continent, a furnace of pills only took two to four hours. The main reason was that Ling Dong had accidentally refined a trace of the Law of Fire, so his control of Astral Fire was absolutely superb. In addition, the Astral Fire in his body had been transformed into the powerful Acquired Spirit Fire, so the speed of refining and purifying herbs was several times faster.
The reason why he said three days was mainly because he was refining a new kind of pill. Ling Dong wasn't too clear about the specifics.
"Well, Senior Brother Ling, do your best. I am waiting for that grandson's kowtow!" Yang Cheng smiled and said to Ling Dong.
Not long after, Ling Dong entered the extremely well-decorated Alchemy Room. Inside the Alchemy Room, there was even a pill furnace and an array to activate the Earth Fire, which was used by the Martial Warriors who did not have enough firepower to continue refining pills.
Ling Dong didn't have such concerns. Although his Acquired Spirit Fire's pill refining speed wasn't unparalleled in the world, it was definitely not something that ordinary alchemists could compare to.
Take this sea horse urchin for example. An ordinary alchemist would need at least four hours to refine and purify this sea horse urchin with the help of the special Astral Fire that they deliberately cultivated. Ordinary Astral Fire would take more than four to five hours.
However, if it was Ling Dong refining and purifying this sea horse urchin, it would only take a quarter of an hour. No, it might even be faster!
"Puff …"
After a burst of smelly black smoke came out, Ling Dong revealed a bitter smile. "I haven't refined pills for a long time, so I am rusty. A sea horse urchin was directly refined into ashes by me. That was ten low-grade Reiki …"
After two hours, Ling Dong looked at the black ashes in his hand again and wiped his sweat. "As expected, the difficulty of refining the Spirit Return Golden Pill, which is ranked second in the ancient Golden Pill formula, is several times more difficult than the Moonlight Sky-Mending Pill, which is ranked first!"
However, to Ling Dong, failing in alchemy was as common as eating a meal. It was too normal. However, after the failure, Ling Dong was anxious to start refining pills for the second time. Instead, he carefully thought about the process of refining pills from the previous time and learned from it to increase the success rate of refining pills!
After thinking clearly, he would start refining pills again!
This was one of the tricks Ling Dong used to increase the success rate of refining pills!
After sixteen hours, Ling Dong refined the first batch of Spirit Return Golden Pill, which used sea horse urchins as the main ingredient. Before that, Ling Dong had destroyed eighteen sets of ingredients!
After one day, Ling Dong had already used thirty sets of ingredients that used sea horse urchins as the main ingredient, and two sets of pills were formed!
After two days, he had used a total of fifty sets of ingredients, and six sets of pills were formed. After four days, he had completely used up a hundred sets of ingredients, and had refined a total of twenty-two bottles of Spirit Return Golden Pill!
After refining the last set of Spirit Return Golden Pill, which used sea horse urchins as the main ingredient, Ling Dong slowly stood up. His joints creaked as he stretched lazily. With a flick of his finger, a pill that was still warm and emitting a strange fragrance began to jump in front of his eyes.
"Yang Cheng, let's go. Let's go blind that bastard's eyes!"
