Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 298 The worst plan
After waiting for nearly four hours, it was finally Jiang Cheng's turn.

At this time, he and Shen Ming, who was wearing a white coat, were the only ones left in the alchemy room.

"What's your name? What level of spiritualist are you?"

The latter asked.

"My last name is Zhang Cheng, and I'm a first-level spiritual master." Jiang Cheng replied.

"Level one."

Shen Ming frowned slightly, "Then you better hurry up. None of the three people just now is lower than level two, and one of them is a level five spiritualist. The more spiritual power you have, the more opportunities for trial and error. You are only level one, and I think five or six hours a day is the limit, unless you take pills..."

He shook his head.

The mental power of a first-level psychic is 100 to 200 times that of an ordinary person.

If you want to fully restore your mental strength, you need at least 30 primary tranquilizing pills. Primary tranquilizing pills are not cheap, with a market price of 30 yuan per pill, and 30 pills would be yuan.

Relying on taking elixirs to improve the level of alchemy is unaffordable even for a high-level spiritualist.

"Come closer, I will show you how to clean the alchemy furnace. It is best to clean it once every time you finish refining a batch of pills to remove the residue inside.

If you don’t clean it up, it won’t matter once or twice, but if it accumulates too much, it will affect the probability of success.”

Jiang Cheng listened carefully.

Then there was an introduction to the medicinal materials and the methods of preparation. After more than ten minutes, the refining of the first batch of pills officially began.

The consumption of his mental energy was almost the same as the time he watched Shen Ming making the elixir. Almost an hour had passed.

A furnace of pills came out.

Two of them are finished pills, and the others are just residues.

Jiang Cheng looked at the panel in front of him.

I saw that the experience bar of alchemy increased by one tenth.

This made him somewhat happy.

Because as long as you refine nine more furnaces of such pills, you can master the art of alchemy.

"Humph, don't be happy too early."

Shen Ming's voice rang in my ears.

"You were able to do this under my guidance. If you were asked to refine it on your own, you probably wouldn't be able to refine even one."

"Brother Shen is right."

Jiang Cheng nodded quickly.

As the saying goes, people learn things at different times. The other party's current level of alchemy is indeed higher than mine, so it is only right to respect him.

Moreover, his mental strength is not low. At least he has been consuming his mental strength for the entire morning. Now, he does not look tired at all.

"Well, that's good if you know."

Shen Ming nodded slightly.

"Take a rest first. When you're well rested, I'll take you to refine two more furnaces. Oh, it seems to be getting late. You can go have a meal first and come back later."

"Brother Shen, there's no need for that. I can still hold on. Let's continue."

"Row."

Shen Ming glanced at Jiang Cheng.

I secretly thought that this kid was not bad.

But he has seen many people like this. When it comes to alchemy, diligence and hard work are important, but compared to talent, they are far inferior.

Just like him, although he relied on his stubbornness to reach the level of a second-level alchemist, he was able to refine intermediate-level nourishing spirit pills.

But that’s where it stops.

For those at level four or five, refining intermediate-level nourishing spirit pills is like a piece of cake for them, even advanced and top-level ones.

This is the gap between people.

Then he continued to refine two more furnaces.

Only one finished pill came out of the second furnace.

The third batch produced three pieces, which means there are still two pieces in each batch.

The experience bar of alchemy increased to 30%.

The bad news is that Jiang Cheng's mental strength has reached its limit. Shen Ming had expected this, and waved at Jiang Cheng, asking him to go back and rest until his mental strength recovers, or come back tomorrow morning.

Of course Jiang Cheng couldn't wait until tomorrow to come back.

Just imagine if he were to go and make pills alone now, every time he finished making pills, his experience bar would definitely increase by less than one-tenth.

But under Shen Ming's hands-on guidance, it is possible.

This also means that, unless anything unexpected happens, he will have mastered the art of alchemy in two days.

To be cautious, he must hurry up and prove his worth to Yang Chun.

Always prepare for the worst. Just because the Dawn Society hasn't found this place yet doesn't mean they will never find it. Just relying on the identity of a level 5 Force warrior is not enough.

He must focus on alchemy and attract Yang Chun's attention, otherwise if Li Ming finds out, he might be abandoned.

So, it was night.

Jiang Cheng came to the alchemy room again, and under Shen Ming's hands-on guidance, he refined two more furnaces before leaving.

What he didn't know was that after he left, Shen Ming shook his head.

Judging from Jiang Cheng’s performance, he didn’t think that the former was a talented person.

Because in the next two furnaces, the number of finished nourishing spirit pills is still between 1 and 3.

I am afraid of comparison in everything.

The other three people performed better than Jiang Cheng on the first day. One of the men, under his guidance, produced five or six finished nourishing spirit pills!
Facts have also proved that the other party's performance was indeed good. It has been less than half a month. Every time he refines it alone, he can produce three or four finished nourishing spirit pills. Occasionally, once or twice, he can produce five. As long as he practices for a few more days, it will definitely not be difficult to pass the assessment.

But he would only think about this kind of thing in his heart and would not say it out loud to avoid offending others.

The next day.

Jiang Cheng and three other people came to the alchemy room again.

Just like yesterday, the four of them watched Shen Ming's demonstration first.

Of course, unlike the other three, Jiang Cheng did not use his mental power to watch all the time. After all, if he did, it would be a waste of an opportunity.

Soon, one of the four men came on stage.

The man was very confident and smiled. It turned out that he did have some ability. During the whole process, Shen Ming beside him did not give any advice.

Wait for the pills to come out.

There are actually five finished pills!
A man and a woman nearby couldn't help but open their eyes wide.

His eyes were filled with envy.

"Not bad."

Shen Ming smiled. "You have already met the requirements and can carry out the assessment task at any time. However, I suggest you familiarize yourself with it. Also, there are a few questions in the process just now. Pay attention to them..."

The man listened carefully and then quickly thanked him.

"Thank you, Brother Shen. If it weren't for your constant guidance, I, Han Tao, would not have achieved this result."

"Hehehe, it should be, it should be."

Shen Ming smiled.

The benefits of building a good relationship with a level five spiritualist are self-evident, not to mention if the latter becomes a high-level alchemist in the future.

In addition, there is a sense of accomplishment.

Han Tao turned around and glanced at the people in Jiang Cheng, and finally his eyes fell on the only female among them.

"Who of you wants to come up next?"

Hearing this, the woman came forward.

Seeing this, Han Tao stepped aside and did not leave in a hurry, but watched from the side.

Finally, the woman refined a furnace of pills, and there were only four finished nourishing spirit pills.

Shen Ming was quite satisfied and gave some pointers.

The woman turned and left. Before leaving, she glanced at Han Tao. Seeing this, the latter followed her.

"Which of you two will come first?"

In the room, Shen Ming's gaze fell on Jiang Cheng and another man.
