I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 462

Alice took the Youth-Preserving Pill and returned to her room, taking off her shoes and jumping onto the bed.

It's a jumble of random things.

Su Fan gave me books, a cell phone, a laptop, as well as newspapers, talismans...

Her life wasn't exactly leisurely either; while Su Fan was away, she was constantly cramming on her knowledge of cultivation.

The boss has lived in America since childhood, but he doesn't have the shallowness and irritability typical of American youths. Instead, he is reserved and mature.

Alice guessed that this was largely due to his upbringing in an environment rich in Eastern culture.

She always tried to understand Su Fan's character from his experiences and knowledge.

it's too cold.

The place he was standing in was too high and too cold.

Power can change a person, and Alice's experiences over the past few centuries have proven this law countless times.

People at the same level will exhibit similar traits, but how many people can understand Su Fan's thoughts and ideas?
Alice knew she couldn't change Su Fan, nor did she want to.

All I wanted was to be closer to him.

At least it will allow him to see his own shadow when he turns around.

For those wandering in the darkness, even just seeing a light shining for them in the distance can warm their hearts chilled by the cold wind.

The best comfort is actually just being there for someone.

This is something Alice learned from kittens while she was in a mental hospital during her human years.

Alice rolled over, stared at the ceiling for a while, then grabbed the laptop next to her and opened her email.

They were filled with countless unread emails.

As the only member of the family living away from home, Alice receives letters from her family members every few days.

Besides him, Edward's girlfriend Isabella, also known as Bella, would also write to her.

Listening to her younger brother and sister-in-law confide their relationship troubles is a unique experience that no older sister should miss.

What Alice didn't expect was that soon after, the emails were also sent by the werewolves from Forks.

Jacob, unable to win Bella's heart, has been living in great pain. He had no choice but to email his mentor, Su Fan, for advice on how to adjust his mindset.

Unfortunately, the former did not know Su Fan's contact information and could only try to contact him through the antique shop's official email address, which is currently operated by Alice.

Therefore, none of these messages reached Su Fan's ears.

This is neither settling personal scores nor neglecting one's duties.

Alice had also experienced major events alongside Su Fan, compared to the enormous crises that could wipe out a city.

The love triangle between a vampire, a werewolf, and a human girl seems petty and nonsensical.

Alice even doubted that if she actually put these things in front of Su Fan, he would think she was an idiot.

"Small-town youths immersed in the world of love are so lucky."

Alice couldn't help but sigh, while looking at the other side where there were still some books she hadn't finished reading, she sighed and rubbed her forehead in worry.

Not only do I have to work, but I'm also required to undergo intensive standardized residency training.

If it weren't for the fact that the boss was good-looking, she would have packed her bags and left long ago.

"Ugh……"

Alice sighed heavily, picked up a book, crossed her bare feet, and began to read, swaying back and forth.

"The road to becoming a boss's wife is long and arduous."

……

After Alice entered the room, Su Fan immediately began refining his second batch of pills.

The Youth-Preserving Pill gave him immense confidence.

Skipping the original practice steps, Su Fan planned to go straight to a more difficult task: refining the most needed spiritual energy-boosting pills.

Let's get the Rejuvenation Pill!
But harsh reality soon poured down on them like a bucket of cold water. Although the second batch of pills yielded some results, the actual success rate was pitifully low.

Ideally, a batch of pills should yield eight or nine pills.

But after Su Fan opened the alchemy furnace, he only found two finished pills among the dark dregs.

Moreover, according to Su Fan's observation, the medicinal power contained in it was not sufficient; at best, it could only be considered a substandard product.

As it turns out, Su Fan's talent in alchemy was not particularly high; at least, he was definitely not the so-called "Sacred Body of Alchemy."

With this refining method, no amount of medicinal herbs would be enough for him to wreak havoc.

Since the Rejuvenation Pill isn't working right now, what about the slightly lower-grade Qi Gathering Powder?

The Spirit Restoration Pill directly transforms medicinal power into spiritual power, restoring the depleted spiritual power within the user's body, while the Qi Gathering Powder has a simpler effect.

It increases the rate at which the user absorbs external spiritual energy, thereby restoring their condition.

According to the target audience, the target audience for Qi Gathering Powder is cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages.

The Rejuvenation Pill is for cultivators at the Golden Core stage or above.

Su Fan is an anomaly. Although he has not condensed a golden core, the quality of his spiritual power is definitely not at the Foundation Establishment level. Moreover, his numerous supernatural abilities and techniques make his combat ability extremely powerful.

Their actual combat strength is no less than, and no less than, that of an ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivator.

Therefore, the things you use must also be of a high standard.

The Rejuvenation Pill is the ultimate goal, but in the meantime, other pills need to be refined to improve one's alchemy skills.

"Let's start with the Youth Preservation Pill."

Consider it a meal prepared for the hardworking staff.

Thinking this, Su Fan took out the same medicinal herbs as before from the Pot Heaven Space.

With the experience of success and failure as a foundation, refining the Youth Preservation Pill is not only easy but also a sure thing.

[You have successfully refined a Youth Preservation Pill. Alchemy Proficiency +2]

[You have successfully refined a Youth Preservation Pill. Alchemy Proficiency +2]

[You have successfully refined a Youth Preservation Pill. Alchemy Proficiency +2]

……

As the medicinal herbs were rapidly consumed, Su Fan finally received a different system notification.

Thanks to your persistent practice, you have begun to grasp the basics of alchemy.

Congratulations, you've become a novice in alchemy.

[Newbie Alchemist: Success rate for refining low-level pills +60%, pill success rate +20%; Success rate for refining beginner-level pills +2%, pill success rate +0%]

[Unable to refine intermediate or higher-level high-grade pills. Please continue to improve your skill proficiency.]

After reading the description, Su Fan couldn't help but rub his chin.

The term "basic pill" likely refers to pills like the Spirit Recovery Pill, which are primarily used by cultivators at the Golden Core stage and above.

The level may only be increased by one level, but the difficulty of refining it increases by more than a little bit.

Whether it's formations, weapon crafting, or alchemy, it requires not only exceptional talent but also persistent practice and an indomitable spirit.

Compared to this, the difficulties of ordinary cultivation seem somewhat insignificant.

It seems there aren't many difficulties in cultivation.

Su Fan scratched his head.

I'm starting to feel a bit like Versailles, which isn't a good sign.

As the saying goes, "When the sky is arrogant, it will rain; when people are arrogant, disaster will follow."

Nowadays, evil gods, alien gods, and ancient gods are emerging all at once, and it's not a good thing for them to become increasingly arrogant. It's best to be careful in everything.
