The difficulty of refining the Cyan Spirit Pill was higher than that of the First Revolution Nourishing Viscera Pill but lower than the Three Revolutions Nourishing Viscera Pill. Its effects were also between the two, making it a transitional elixir.
During the Inner Refining of the Lungs and Spleens cultivation, the First Revolution Nourishing Viscera Pill was very effective for the first two organs. However, when it ca to refining the third and fourth organs, its effects diminished greatly. If one were to take a Three Revolutions Nourishing Viscera Pill at this stage, the elixir’s effects would be a bit too potent and not quite suitable.
This was where transitional elixirs like the Guiyuan Pill, Qi Replenishing Pill, and Cyan Spirit Pill ca in. Their dicinal effects were more suitable. While aiding in tempering, these elixirs also nourished one’s Essence Qi, providing excellent nourishnt for the body.
Even the Inner Refining of the Lungs and Spleens placed a certain burden on the body, so these elixirs were used to help with recuperation. Their effects were excellent, making them the choice of many Inner Refining Experts.
Among them, the Cyan Spirit Pill was a particularly good elixir, and it was also the one chosen by the Pharmacist Alliance for this alchemy assessnt.
For many Interdiate Pharmacists, this was a significant hurdle. The difficulty was raised considerably, which greatly lowered the success rate of the alchemy.
With only two chances at alchemy, the probability of failure was even higher.
After successfully completing his alchemy yesterday, Yang Chan had watched the refining processes of the Pharmacists who hadn’t yet succeeded. Many of them would likely end in failure. ’Among them, I should be quite inconspicuous.’
’It’s best if I control the pace of my refining failure. I’ve only refined it once back in the Cyan Yuan Sect, but I’ve accumulated a good deal of experience. I’ve also read so accounts on refining the Cyan Spirit Pill. Combined with all the books on Pharmacists I’ve been reading recently, I actually have so confidence I could succeed. But for , Yang Chan, there’s no need.’
’For the Cyan Yuan Sect’s part, I can just watch Xu Gaocen’s performance. Afterward, watching these Pharmacists refine elixirs from the stage will also give so insights, and that’s enough.’
Yang Chan felt he had gained a lot from this trip to White Jade City. He had also learned to be a little bad.
It takes a lifeti to learn to be good, but only a mont to go astray.
’Once I get back to the Cyan Yuan Sect and away from these sources of temptation, I’ll be back to my old self. I won’t be thinking about any ’fragrances,’ ’flowers,’ or ’fruits’ anymore.’
Yang Chan walked to yesterday’s spot. This was the Earth Fire he had already calibrated, so it was naturally better to work here. The success rate would be higher. Although he didn’t care about the success rate, he still had to do this so Yan Jinfeng wouldn’t see any obvious issues.
The other Pharmacists did the sa. Their success rate in refining would naturally be higher with an Earth Fire they were already familiar with.
The Cyan Spirit Pill required many ingredients. Yang Chan went through his usual process of sorting and preparing them. Only after selecting what he deed to be the most suitable ratio did he begin refining.
Before starting the refining process, Yang Chan lifted his head and glanced at the other Pharmacists out of the corner of his eye. So had already begun refining, while others were still ticulously preparing their ingredients.
The Pharmacist Alliance had allotted more ti for refining the Cyan Spirit Pill than for the First Revolution Nourishing Viscera Pill. This was in consideration of its higher difficulty. Therefore, many people were taking extra ti to prepare, hoping to reduce the chance of failure.
Yang Chan skillfully began refining the elixir. Then, his entire Heart Spirit beca focused on the Cyan Spirit Pill, his concentration absolute.
When it ca to refining elixirs, he was serious.
’Although this is a refining attempt dood to fail, it will still give so experience. After returning to the Cyan Yuan Sect, I’ll be able to refine the elixir for my own use. It will also raise my Daily Potential Point Collection again, hopefully starting with a 4 as soon as possible. That would allow for more reasonable progress.’
If there were no danger, Yang Chan preferred to improve in all aspects. That way, he would have no weaknesses, his potential would naturally be greater, and the benefits to him would, of course, be more significant.
During Yang Chan’s process of refining the Cyan Spirit Pill, the Earth Fire suddenly flickered. This surprised him, because according to Xu Gaocen, the Pharmacist Alliance’s Earth Fire was supposed to be extrely stable, with such fluctuations being very rare. At the sa ti, the ingredients inside the Alchemy Furnace began to change.
He hastily added water to stabilize it, but in the end, he still failed.
The only thing Yang Chan had done to sabotage the process was to add the water a mont too late, directly causing the failure in refining the Cyan Spirit Pill.
Black smoke billowed from the Alchemy Furnace, signifying Yang Chan’s first alchemy failure.
A look of frustration appeared on Yang Chan’s face. He glanced around and saw that so people had already left the courtyard, having evidently failed both of their elixir refining attempts.
The sounds of their cursing and grumbling reached his ears. He wanted to laugh but held it in. ’Right now, I’m very frustrated.’
Yang Chan noticed he wasn’t the only one who had failed; quite a few other Pharmacists had also failed their refining. However, when his gaze fell upon Xu Gaocen’s station, he saw that he was very steady and still continuing to refine the Cyan Spirit Pill.
’As expected, a truly senior Interdiate Pharmacist is very reliable.’
’Xu Gaocen is still trustworthy.’
The mont that thought surfaced in Yang Chan’s mind, smoke began to pour from Xu Gaocen’s Alchemy Furnace. It was clear he hadn’t managed to control it either, failing his first attempt to refine the Cyan Spirit Pill.
Seeing this, he imdiately looked away. ’I definitely didn’t jinx him. I’m just selecting new ingredients now.’
People just can’t handle praise; the mont you complint them, sothing goes wrong.
After preparing the ingredients once more, Yang Chan arranged them neatly and began refining the Cyan Spirit Pill again.
He followed the sa steps as before, slowly starting the refining process, his deanor suggesting he had already adjusted his ntality.
Failing to refine an elixir was normal, but being able to readjust one’s mindset after a failure was a skill in itself—a skill that an outstanding Pharmacist needed to master.
As a Genius Pharmacist of the Cyan Yuan Sect, he needed to put on a bit of a show. The key was to let Yan Jinfeng see his potential in alchemy, so that after returning to the Cyan Yuan Sect, he would receive more support to stay within the sect.
’A little scheming is necessary. It’s for my own good. At the very least, I can stay safely in the Cyan Yuan Sect for three years.’
’In three years, my Martial Arts Cultivation should reach the level of a Grandmaster. By then, I’ll have the power to protect myself, and I can co to White Jade City again.’
He didn’t have any grand ambitions. It was just that White Jade City had so many unique snacks that he was very fond of. And those big, sweet fruits tasted amazing; eating more of them was an excellent choice.
Also, the Pharmacists from various regions were great. The exchanges were very interesting, allowing him to learn a lot and improve his own abilities as a Pharmacist.
He also learned so things about the various provinces through conversation and looked forward to learning more in the future.
’What you read in books can’t compare to the real experience of interacting with these people. The knowledge in books is cold and lifeless, but when you chat with these Pharmacists, everything feels warm and cozy. They can even perform a magical trick where their palms ’disappear.’ That must be a powerful Martial Arts technique; I need to study it more.’
Yang Chan’s goals were just that simple. As for Zhao Yi and the others wanting to co, all he could say was that they should just study hard from their books and not think about other things.
White Jade City was too big; he couldn’t handle it all at once. ’Looks like I’ll have to put in the effort to make another trip!’
