She Qingqing’s Artifact Refining Mastery is stuck at a Tier Three Top-Grade level, and the reason is that Qi Cultivators cannot refine Tier Four Elixirs; they require Foundation Establishnt True Fla assistance.
And Foundation Establishnt True Fla can only be possessed by Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
Judging by She Qingqing’s Qi Cultivation Stage strength at the ti, she obviously did not possess Foundation Establishnt True Fla, so she was unable to refine Tier Four Elixirs.
This is also the biggest reason for She Qingqing’s desire to reach Foundation Establishnt, to ensure insufficient strength does not hinder her deep learning in the Alchemy Dao.
In the dicinal Garden, She Qingqing stood tall in her green attire and shoes, gracefully teaching Li Shishi the knowledge of alchemy.
Lu Ping first observed the dicinal Garden for a while and discovered that the Spirit dicine and Spirit Plants, such as the Golden Bud Flower and Nine-Curves Reishi, had recently increased in number, boosting production.
Particularly the Spiritual Peach Tree, not only had it grown from its original three to sixteen.
Moreover, the three Spiritual Peach Trees planted for years had now ascended to Tier Two High-Grade.
Thinking back, the three Spiritual Peach Trees Lu Ping redeed from the System Mall were all Tier One Top-Grade.
These three Spiritual Peach Trees at the ti provided the financially strained Cyan Mountain Sect with a comndable Spirit Stone inco, helping the sect weather its challenges.
She Qingqing was extraordinarily attentive in tending to these three Spiritual Peach Trees, daily checking for pests on the Spirit Trees, observing how many new sprouts erged, and whether the Spiritual Peaches were bigger than the previous day.
The Spiritual Peach Tree can be considered She Qingqing’s treasure; she cared for it more ticulously than her own needs.
Now, the tier of these Spiritual Peach Trees has ascended from Tier One Top-Grade to Tier Two High-Grade, showing how much effort She Qingqing invested and the thoughts she poured into them.
Regarding contributions to the Sect, She Qingqing is among the top, undoubtedly a hero of the Cyan Mountain Sect.
Over the years, Lu Ping also observed with appreciation and admiration She Qingqing’s devotion to the Sect.
From having no alchemist to developing a Tier Four Lower-Grade alchemy mastery, Cyan Mountain Sect now boasts its primary alchemist, guiding Li Weixiao and Li Shishi in learning alchemy, and it can already cultivate alchemists for the sect.
Among them, She Qingqing’s two disciples, Li Weixiao, already achieved a Tier One Top-Grade alchemy mastery.
As for Li Shishi, she has now touched the threshold of a Tier One Alchemist and will soon try her hand at alchemy.
She Qingqing is currently teaching her the knowledge to refine Tier One Qi Cultivation Powder.
This young girl listens earnestly, nodding like a little chick pecking rice and occasionally asking questions when she does not understand, showing worth praise learning attitude.
Lu Ping observed for a while, noting She Qingqing’s cultivation had reached First-Layer Foundation Establishnt, promptly setting up communication.
"Qingqing."
Upon hearing the voice in her mind, She Qingqing imdiately recognized it as Lu Ping and responded respectfully.
"Ancestor."
"Hmm."
Lu Ping acknowledged gently, inquiring about She Qingqing’s recent progress in alchemy and matters in the dicinal Garden.
After a round of exchange, Lu Ping revealed the purpose of his visit: he wanted She Qingqing to try refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill soon.
The Cyan Mountain Sect over the years had already gathered the dicinal ingredients for Foundation Establishnt Pill refinent.
For example, Jade Marrow Golden Branch, Golden Lotus, Purple Monkey Flower, Celestial Spirit Fruit—all the primary ingredients for Foundation Establishnt Pill had been collected, and given She Qingqing’s alchemy mastery, she could indeed refine them.
Cyan Mountain Sect had long needed to produce Foundation Establishnt Pills by itself to cultivate Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
"Refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill..."
Upon hearing Lu Ping’s idea, She Qingqing’s expression beca serious, murmuring before speaking.
"Ancestor, I also wish to refine the Foundation Establishnt Pill."
"Recently, my alchemy has reached Tier Four Lower-Grade levels, eting the conditions for refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill, so I can indeed attempt refining it."
At this point, She Qingqing seed sowhat reticent.
Noticing She Qingqing’s expression, Lu Ping asked, "Do you have any concerns?"
She Qingqing nodded slightly, not hesitating any further and spoke earnestly, "Tier Four Lower-Grade alchemy, while capable of refining Foundation Establishnt Pills, I am attempting it for the first ti, unfamiliar with the difficulty involved, needing to explore and comprehend through the Foundation Establishnt Pill elixir formulas."
"Hence, the initial refining attempts may be sowhat wasteful of ingredients..."
So this young girl was worried about this.
Lu Ping chuckled warmly, speaking with a hint of gentle concern, "Don’t worry about the ingredients; they’ll be sufficient until you successfully refine a Foundation Establishnt Pill."
"The sect never spares resources in cultivating you. Whatever ingredients, resources you lack, just inform Distant Mountain, and I will arrange it with him."
"If that’s the case, then that’s manageable..."
Knowing the Cyan Mountain Sect valued her significantly and was willing to invest substantial resources in her cultivation, She Qingqing felt a warmth in her heart.
It’s known, like cultivating Artifact Refiners, nurturing Alchemists is exceptionally resource-intensive and Spirit Stone-consuming.
Typically, small families or sects cannot afford the resources for talent cultivation in these fields.
This is also why both Alchemists and Artifact Refiners are in demand.
Lu Ping added, "For the sect to gather ingredients like Jade Marrow Golden Branch was not easy, and now that they’re ready, there’s no reason not to refine them."
"Alright, Ancestor." She Qingqing quietly listened, agreeing with Lu Ping’s words, but when she spoke again, her voice was noticeably softer.
"This Jade Marrow Golden Branch is quite precious; the other three ingredients also bear considerable value, I’ll try not to waste too much during refining."
The Foundation Establishnt Pill is so prized, costing as much as ten thousand Spirit Stones each; apart from its own elixir tier and the uncirculated market elixir formulas,
the main reason lies in the rarity and high prices of quite scarce primary ingredients like Jade Marrow Golden Branch, Golden Lotus, Purple Monkey Flower, and Celestial Spirit Fruit, often catching attention but not being available.
Otherwise, the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator numbers in the Cultivation Realm could multiply by hundreds or thousands, making Foundation Establishnt much easier.
Foundation Establishnt Pill elixir formulas are also largely monopolized by major cultivation sects and families.
Lu Ping, having the ability to establish sects, naturally possesses the Foundation Establishnt Pill elixir formulas.
After discussing the refining of Foundation Establishnt Pills with She Qingqing, Lu Ping drifted out of the dicinal Garden.
That noon, She Qingqing followed Lu Ping’s guidance to seek permission from Lu Changfeng for attempting the Foundation Establishnt Pill refinent.
Upon hearing She Qingqing’s plan, Lu Changfeng showed excitent, chuckling aloud, "Wonderful, wonderful! You’ve now ascended to a Tier Four Alchemist?"
Tier Four Alchemist—the highest alchemy mastery among disciples since the founding of Cyan Mountain Sect.
Lu Changfeng hadn’t expected She Qingqing’s progress in alchemy to be so rapid.
Reflecting on his own Tier One Top-Grade Array Master mastery, he suddenly felt humbled.
Lu Changfeng couldn’t help but sigh at the prowess of the younger generation!
Having She Qingqing was a blessing for the Cyan Mountain Sect.
"Hehe, yes, Grand Elder, I have now achieved Tier Four Alchemist status."
Laughing, She Qingqing nodded, "The Ancestor instructed earlier to start refining Foundation Establishnt Pills, so I’ve co to request Jade Marrow Golden Branch and other ingredients, hoping for Grand Elder’s approval."
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Upon hearing it, Lu Changfeng said ’wonderful’ thrice in succession, laughter spreading across his face.
She Qingqing’s wish to attempt refining Foundation Establishnt Pills is certainly worthy of approval without hesitation.
"Regarding the ingredients, Qingqing, how much do you need? I’ll hand them all over to you right away!"
