Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal Chapter 203 - 133: The Assessment

"Indeed, it is right here!"

Master White Cloud nodded and then took out a jade scroll, handing it to Zhou Xun.

"If you can successfully process this batch of spirit dicine, I will certainly reward you generously!"

"The processing thods are all in here, I will give you three days!"

"I will make an attempt!"

Zhou Xun cupped his hands, took the jade scroll, and without noticing Master White Cloud and Zhou Buqi, he imrsed his divine sense into the jade scroll and began to study it.

Sure enough, the jade scroll recorded the thods for processing these spirit dicines.

It was exactly the sa as the parts he had seen for refining Crystal Condensing Pills.

With this, Zhou Xun was certain that what Master White Cloud was refining was indeed the Crystal Condensing Pill.

Thinking of this made Zhou Xun’s heart burn with excitent.

Even if he couldn’t obtain this elixir, being able to observe the process of its refinent was a significant gain.

Half a day later, Zhou Xun withdrew his divine sense from the jade scroll.

Seeing Zhou Xun stop studying the jade scroll, Master White Cloud was curious.

"You’ve familiarized yourself so quickly?"

"I’ve encountered similar processing thods before, so it was relatively easy to grasp!" Zhou Xun respectfully replied.

"That’s quite good!" Master White Cloud nodded slightly and said no more.

With this, Zhou Xun focused on the spirit dicine in front of him.

A slap on his storage bag, a flash of spirit light, and several treasures appeared on the ground before him.

An ancient bronze pill furnace, the very top-grade pill furnace gifted by Lin Xueying.

A small stack of Tier Two high-grade Dragon Spirit Wood charcoal, each piece worth nearly a hundred spirit stones.

He planned to process this batch of spirit dicine here in the pavilion, according to the thod in the jade scroll.

He placed the Dragon Spirit Wood charcoal under the pill furnace and then cast a spell.

"Boom—"

A burst of azure flas suddenly rose, igniting the Dragon Spirit Wood charcoal instantly.

Zhou Xun didn’t rush to process the spirit dicine but allowed the pill furnace to burn for a while first.

This process is known as warming the furnace.

After a mont, he sensed the state of the pill furnace, feeling it was adequately nurtured.

He then picked a piece of spirit dicine from the pile and tossed it toward the furnace.

This batch of spirit dicine, every kind had several plants, and their potency and age varied.

This was done deliberately by Master White Cloud.

Even with the sa spirit dicine, mixing different ages can yield different results.

For instance, the Foundation Establishnt Pill is made from Bright Flower, Dragon Heart Fruit, and two other auxiliary herbs.

But every piece of spirit dicine, due to differing growth environnts and ages, has variances in potency.

Master White Cloud’s intention was to see if Zhou Xun could pick the most suitable combination of ages.

Soon, the first piece of spirit dicine was perfectly processed.

Observing Zhou Xun’s skilled technique, Master White Cloud nodded slightly.

Processing spirit dicine before a True Pill Cultivator like Master White Cloud, without the slightest change, showed the extraordinary mindset of Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun then selected a second piece and tossed it in.

Seeing Zhou Xun’s selection, a hint of appreciation appeared in Master White Cloud’s eyes, while he transmitted a ssage to Zhou Buqi.

"Buqi, look at his processing technique and actions, they are not inferior to those veteran Tier Two high-grade alchemists, not at all like soone new to this level!"

"The Zhou Xiaoyou you recomnded indeed has extraordinary alchemy talent!"

Upon hearing Master White Cloud’s transmitted words, Zhou Buqi was sowhat surprised.

His master rarely praised others. In over a hundred years of discipleship, he had been praised only twice.

Yet Zhou Xun, on his first encounter with his master, received such comndation; it seed he had underestimated Zhou Xun’s alchemy talent.

"Zhou Keqing is truly exceptional; I watched him break through to Foundation Establishnt back then, and hence boldly recruited him, even expending an Azure Sky Pill!"

Zhou Buqi said with a smile.

"You do have a keen eye for talent!" Master White Cloud smiled slightly.

With that, both of them continued to chat as they watched Zhou Xun process the batch of spirit dicine.

Soon, an hour and a half passed, and the processing of the spirit dicine was nearing completion.

Master White Cloud had undisguised admiration in his eyes.

"Buqi, it seems even I underestimated his proficiency; his level in processing spirit dicine might surpass so quasi-third tier alchemists!"

"With his assistance, I am more confident in refining the Crystal Condensing Pill this ti!"

"If this young man can reach the Fake Pill Realm, he might achieve the level of a Tier Three Middle-Grade Alchemist in the future!"

Master White Cloud said, adding a remark.

"Tier Three Middle-Grade!"

Upon hearing his master’s evaluation, Zhou Buqi was slightly shocked.

A Tier Three Middle-Grade Alchemist is nonexistent in all of Xui Country.

Looking across the entire Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm today, there are only a handful.

Each one is a distinguished guest of major Core Formation Sects, their status not even inferior to Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivators.

The fact that Zhou Xun has such talent is astonishing.

No, he must be recruited into the White Cloud Immortal City.

After pondering for a mont, he looked up at his master with determination and said:

"Master, since Zhou Keqing has such outstanding alchemy talent, why not recruit him and accept him as a disciple? This way, our Immortal City will have another Tier Three Alchemist in the future!"

"Hahaha, you speak to the desire of my heart! Once I successfully refine the Crystal Condensing Pill, you may indeed gain a new junior brother!"

Master White Cloud said, smiling broadly, his hand unconsciously stroking his beard.

"Haha, Huai’an will surely be very pleased by then!" With that, the two exchanged smiles.

At this mont, Zhou Xun had reached the final stage of processing the spirit dicine.

All that remained was to rge the refined spirit dicine into one, and he would be complete.

Zhou Xun was fully concentrated.

He manipulated the alchemy furnace to slowly rge the various dicinal liquids.

As Master White Cloud was present, Zhou Xun dared not exert his divine sense fully, maintaining it at a typical Middle-Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator’s level.

Thus, the task was much more challenging.

Soon, the dicinal liquids converged, gradually blending into one, culminating in perfection.

Instantly, a faint fragrance of spirit dicine perated the air.

At this mont, both Master White Cloud and Zhou Buqi knew Zhou Xun had succeeded.

"Elder White Cloud, I have successfully processed the spirit dicine!"

At this point, Zhou Xun turned to Master White Cloud and reported with cupped hands.

"Excellent, excellent, Buqi, how much ti did Zhou Xiaoyou spend processing this batch of spirit dicine?" Master White Cloud said with a kind smile, even the way he addressed Zhou Xun beca much more familiar.

"Reporting to Master, one hour and two quarters and five minutes!" Zhou Buqi replied.

"Almost two quarters of an hour to spare within two hours," Master White Cloud said, carefully examining the pill furnace of Zhou Xun.

"The dicinal liquid is also excellently processed, with no waste, perfectly fused together!"

"Zhou Xiaoyou, you’ve done very well!" Master White Cloud nodded continuously, the appreciation in his eyes evident.

"Predecessor overpraises!" Zhou Xun said modestly.

"You have passed this test!"

"I have decided, in seven days, I shall open the furnace and refine the elixir!"
