Chapter 36 Great Progress in Alchemy

Winter has come again in the Yunze Wilderness.

Gray clouds obscured the mountains and the wind was cold and biting.

There was heavy snow in Qingyang Market, but it still couldn't stop the passion of the casual cultivators.

The streets were crowded with people and bustling with activity.

A few months ago, Lingyumen and Jinyun Valley began to release tasks one after another.

As long as you complete the tasks issued by the sect according to the regulations, you can get the generous rewards promised by the sect.

There are tasks to support the front-line combat camp and fight desperately with the barbarians.

There is a mission to go to Wufeng Mountain and build Yunze Fairy City.

There are also tasks of encircling and hunting various monsters and collecting various spiritual herbs and materials.

They even issued a series of high rewards for "robbery repairers", which were extremely generous.

Among these tasks, the highest reward is the most tempting, which is the legendary "Foundation Building Pill".

But the difficulty of completing it can naturally be imagined.

If an ordinary cultivator wants to participate in such a mission, it would be tantamount to seeking his own death.

But the situation could not stop the independent cultivators from rushing to accept the tasks, like moths to a flame.

Under this wave of mission recruitment, various groups of cultivators gradually emerged around Qingyang Market.

They began to form teams and go on adventures together.

Qin Ming was not interested in these tasks at all.

Still as steady as an old dog, practicing alone in the house.

He quietly looked at the entry of [Weak Soul Power] x10 in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Decided to strengthen the soul today.

Qin Ming's mind moved, and a white leaf disappeared.

moment.

Suddenly, an unbearable pain came over him, as if something was tearing violently at his sea of ​​consciousness.

hum~
When he came to his senses, his head was covered in sweat.

"I didn't expect the process of strengthening the soul would be so painful." Qin Ming gritted his teeth, his face pale.

However, he clearly felt that his soul had indeed become stronger.

"There are nine more!"

Qin Ming made up his mind and continued to use the [Weak Soul Power] entry.

……

Three days later.

After using ten [Weak Soul Power] entries, Qin Ming's soul power more than doubled compared to before.

His current spiritual strength should be two to three times that of a cultivator of the same level.

"Go to Su Yuqing and try to make the elixir again."

Qin Ming felt his strengthened soul, as if his confidence had returned to him.

In the shantytown, in Su Yuqing's house.

"Brother Qin, I advise you to give up. Your talent is really not suitable for learning alchemy."

"Why are you bothering?"

When Su Yuqing saw Qin Ming, she tried to persuade him kindly, with an attitude of not turning back until she hit the wall.

Qin Ming smiled faintly and responded: "I want to try it one last time."

"Okay, then let it be as you wish, ah."

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Su Yuqing just let him go.

He sat down, brewed another pot of spiritual tea, and started to drink it.

Qin Ming entered the alchemy room.

Place all the prepared spiritual herbs and materials on the table.

Immediately began to refine the medicinal embryo.

This time he was going to refine a first-grade, low-grade elixir - the Qi-restoring elixir.

Qin Ming discovered that as his spirit and soul became stronger, alchemy became surprisingly smooth.

From the two steps of extracting the drug embryo and preparing the medicine, you can clearly feel that it is very different from before.

Almost in one go.

Qin Ming opened the fire valve.

boom!
A blazing fire rose from below.

Qin Ming began to evenly heat the alchemy furnace according to the fire control techniques in the "Fire Temperature Chapter".

When the time was right, he raised his hand and waved.

The prepared medicinal embryo in the vessel flew into the alchemy furnace according to his thoughts.

Qin Ming concentrated his mind, controlled the temperature, and began to fuse the medicine embryo.

Time passed little by little.

……

outside.

While Su Yuqing was drinking tea, she would occasionally glance at what was happening in the alchemy room.

He didn't care whether Qin Ming could refine low-grade elixirs, but he was worried about what would happen if the other party lost control of the elixir and blew up his house?
"Alas, you are so young and incompetent, why can't you listen?" "Why are you so obsessed?"

"I already told you. It's impossible."

Su Yuqing shook his head and sighed for a while, then picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

鸠！
At this moment, a crisp sound was heard from the alchemy room!
"puff!"

The tea in Su Yuqing's mouth suddenly sprayed out.

His face showed a look of astonishment, "No way? Success in one try?"

He quickly got up and ran into the alchemy room to take a look.

A scent of elixir wafted from inside.

Inside the alchemy furnace, there were five green pills that had already been made.

Qin Ming raised his hand and five recovery pills fell into his hands.

"This, this, this, have you mastered it?"

Su Yuqing was a little bit unbelievable.

You have to know that with his qualifications, the progress he made in learning to refine low-grade elixirs was not much different from Qin Ming's current progress.

"Haha, I'm just lucky!" Qin Ming showed a happy expression and was very excited inside!
Finally succeeded!
This means that he officially became a first-class lower-grade alchemist.

Listen to him.

Su Yuqing showed a look of sudden enlightenment this time, "Yes, you have only been learning for a short time, it must be a coincidence."

Qin Ming put the five Qi-recovering pills into the jade bottle and put them away.

"Brother Su, I also want to try to refine a furnace of Qi Condensation Pills."

Su Yuqing frowned when he heard this. He felt that Qin Ming was a little too ambitious.

"Brother Qin, you have to think it through. The Qi Condensation Pill is a pill that increases your cultivation in the middle stage of Qi training. Its difficulty is not comparable to that of the Qi Recovery Pill."

"Don't rush it."

But Qin Ming still insisted: "I still want to try."

"It's up to you. It's not my spiritual stones that are being lost anyway."

After saying that, Su Yuqing went back to sip tea.

Qin Ming cleaned the alchemy furnace and prepared to refine the Qi Condensation Pill.

The recipe of the Qi Condensing Pill and the steps for refining it were already deeply imprinted in his mind.

All processes are proceeding in an orderly manner.

……

Su Yuqing held a teacup in her hand, but her attention was all on the alchemy room.

"Pfft~"

A muffled sound was heard from the alchemy room, followed by a burnt smell.

"Ah~ I told you, it's impossible to be so lucky every time, but Brother Qin still doesn't believe it."

"Just a furnace of low-grade Qi-restoring pills to give him confidence."

Su Yuqing shook her head as she spoke.

In the alchemy room.

Qin Ming held his chin and stared at the alchemy furnace, without showing much discouragement on his face.

He carefully recalled the entire process of refining the elixir, and every detail emerged in his mind one by one.

Qin Ming narrowed his eyes, and a light flashed in them.

Seems to have figured something out.

Immediately, he started to restart the furnace.

An hour passed.

"Puff~" There was a muffled sound in the alchemy room.

Su Yuqing stuffed a bite of dessert into her mouth and shook her head helplessly.

"Failed again." Qin Ming frowned, raised his hand to take a few waste pills in the furnace and began to observe them.

Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled up.

Qin Ming took a closer look and saw that the pill in his hand was already half formed.

"Just a little bit."

……

Qin Ming’s third Qi Condensation Pill refining began.

He experienced it firsthand.

As his spiritual power increased, he had greatly improved in accurately controlling the dosage of medicinal embryos, preparing medicines and controlling fire.

Now, when he refines medicinal embryos and prepares medicines, he is basically always accurate without any mistakes.

Time passed little by little.

Su Yuqing was feeling a little bored and was about to get up to cook.

鸠！
An extremely clear sound came from his alchemy room.

Su Yuqing felt as if struck by lightning. His body froze in place and he could no longer move as soon as he raised his foot.
