One month later

For a month, Xiao Yu repeated the alchemy process every day, recording the changes, making improvements, and practicing again.

He would need to use up a portion of medicinal materials every day, which means on average he would consume 500 gold coins a day. This number can be said to be huge in a place like Wutan City.

The Xiao family's annual revenue and profit is only 100,000 gold coins, so it is conceivable that alchemists really burn money.

…………

"This is the last time I'm going to make the medicine. I hope nothing goes wrong."

Today Xiao Yu was going to refine the last batch of medicinal materials. He saw a large stack of papers on the stone table behind him. These were the data that Xiao Yu had recorded on the changes in the medicinal materials during the process of refining the medicine over the past month.

Every time you practice, you must record it, and record every detail, not missing any small changes.

This also allowed him to gain increasing experience in refining elixirs with thunder and fire.

When the alchemy began, Xiao Yu skillfully began to refine each medicinal ingredient. Under his precise control of the temperature, in less than an hour, the Qi-absorbing grass, Qi-moving fruit, soul-quenching crystal and the first-order fire-attribute magic core were all refined.

Afterwards, lightning flashed all over the medicine cauldron and the essences began to blend. The fusion was very slow, but Xiao Yu was still controlling it carefully.

This step is critical. If you don't have patience, then you are doomed to fail. What every alchemist has the most is patience, and this is even more so for high-level alchemists. After all, some high-level elixirs take several days to refine.

After an hour, the essences were completely fused together to form a new essence. Xiao Yu carefully controlled the burning flame and finally reduced the flame little by little.

The temperature inside the medicine cauldron gradually dropped, and the pill began to take shape and finally solidified completely.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu slapped the medicine cauldron, and the impact force squeezed the pill out of the cauldron. He reached out and a round, full, slightly fluorescent pill appeared in his hand.

Xiao Yu smiled, took out a jade bottle from his arms and put the pill into it. Inside the jade bottle, there was another similar pill.

After placing the jade bottle on the stone table, he took out another jade bottle containing a pill and placed it on top.

Looking at the two jade bottles in front of him, even though Xiao Yu was calm, he couldn't help but smile happily.

These two jade bottles contain two pills for accelerating cultivation, and the other one is a pill for tempering the body.

They are Xiao Yu's achievements in the past month. Although they are small, they do not hinder Xiao Yu's joy.

However, the only regret is that the elixir for restoring fighting spirit was not successfully refined at the beginning, after all, there were only four sets of medicinal materials.

But it was precisely because those four medicinal herbs provided Xiao Yu with the basis for refining that he was lucky enough to successfully refine a pill from the six medicinal herbs for tempering the body.

Xiao Yu also became secretly narcissistic. With a talent like his, even Gu He was not as good as him.

Thirty parts of medicinal materials, three pills, a one-tenth success rate, and it only took one month to develop the pill formula.

If Yao Lao knew about this, he would probably eat Xiao Yu alive. What kind of talent is this? This talent is even stronger than Yao Lao's talent in refining medicine. Moreover, Yao Lao is from the Yao clan, so his foundation is not bad.

After putting away the jade bottle and organizing the pile of alchemy records, Xiao Yu prepared to go back to the room and have a good sleep. Even though it was still noon, he had been practicing alchemy for a month. Couldn't he have a good rest?
He planned to sell the three pills tomorrow in exchange for gold coins so that he could look for the pill recipe. After all, developing the pill recipe was really time-consuming, and he didn't want to experience this month's life for the time being.

…………

The next day

Xiao Yu slept until noon and got up. He slept for twelve hours, which made up for his mental exhaustion in the past month.

"Ah~ This sleep is so comfortable."

Xiao Yu stretched himself, got up and washed. He spent ten minutes getting ready. He left the courtyard and headed for the Miter Auction House. If he could sell the pills as soon as possible, he could start refining the pills he needed. As long as he had the pills, his abnormal cultivation speed would be improved.

Without stopping too much on the way, Xiao Yu soon arrived at the Mittel Auction House.

When the maid in the hall saw that it was the young man who bought the medicine cauldron more than a month ago, she took Xiao Yu to the lounge and called Manager Liu over.

"It's Brother Xiao, long time no see. What do you need this time?"

As soon as he came up, Manager Liu greeted him warmly. He was not stupid. A future alchemist was worthy of his enthusiasm.

Xiao Yu was not a foolish young man. He was 26 years old in his heart. He naturally knew why Master Liu wanted to be so close to him.

"Master Liu, you are too polite. I am not here to buy things this time, but to sell things."

Xiao Yu smiled, then took out the two jade bottles and handed them to Master Liu.

"Oh? Selling things?"

Manager Liu took the jade bottle. He was very curious about what Xiao Yu could take out to sell to the Mitel Auction House.

However, when he saw clearly what was in the jade bottle, his expression changed slightly, and then he asked cautiously: "Brother Xiao, is the jade bottle filled with elixirs?"

Xiao Yu still smiled, looked at him and nodded.

"Sigh~"

Manager Liu sucked in a breath of cold air, his eyes filled with shock. He couldn't imagine that a young boy could become an alchemist in just over a month.

Seeing Master Liu's expression, Xiao Yu naturally knew what he was thinking, and explained: "Master Liu, don't get me wrong, this is not made by me, it was made by my master, and I can't make the elixir yet."

He didn't want anyone to know that he was an alchemist. If someone dug deeper, it would be troublesome. There were only a few fifteen-year-old alchemists in the entire Jia Ma Empire, and the quality of the pills he refined was unknown. If they reached the top quality, it would be a lot of fun.

Not to mention that many people will check his background. Once the top leaders of the Xiao family find out that he can practice and is an alchemist, he will be annoyed to death. He quite likes his current life and does not want to break it now.

Just as he said, he didn't want to show off, and it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Hearing this, Liu calmed down again and thought to himself, "I knew it. There is no such a young alchemist."

Without doubting anything, Liu nodded: "So that's how it is. Brother Xiao wants to sell these three pills, but you have to wait a little while."

"Because Liu is not an alchemist and cannot identify the elixir, I have to ask Master Gu Ni to come and identify it."

This is the official procedure. Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Master Liu, please go ahead. I can wait for a while."

Manager Liu told the maid to entertain Xiao Yu, then got up and left the lounge.

After a while, Manager Liu came back, with an old man in green clothes and with graying hair following him.

The old man's face was flushed, and although the green clothes on his body looked ordinary, there was a faint glow flowing in them. Obviously, this clothes should have been blessed with some kind of magic core protection. There was a hint of arrogance that was difficult to conceal on his ordinary old face.

Xiao Yu's eyes swept over the old man and finally stopped at the old man's chest, where there was a painting of something that somewhat resembled a medicine furnace. On the surface of the medicine furnace, there were two silver ripples, flashing a noble and majestic aura.

"Is that the symbol of a second-grade alchemist? It's quite nice, wow~" Xiao Yu thought to himself.

This alchemist robe should be the exclusive clothing distributed by the Gama Empire Alchemist Association to every alchemist who has registered with the association. The quality is indeed good.
