Li Yunjing thought for a while, and the images of Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, Xing’Er, and Yue’Er appeared in his mind. His won naturally needed him to support them.
If Li Yunjing could advance to a Tier Two Alchemy Master, he would be able to support his family with minimal expense.
Determined to act, Li Yunjing imdiately rummaged through his "Storage Ring" and found all the herbs, then reviewed the second volu of "Alchemy Technique Basics".
There were many explanations on refining Tier Two Elixirs in it. Although it did not delve into advanced areas, it was sufficient for Li Yunjing.
"I still need to refine the ’True Essence Pill’!"
Going over the process of refining the "True Essence Pill" in his mind again, Li Yunjing nodded with satisfaction. He was already very familiar with this knowledge.
Following the usual routine before alchemy, Li Yunjing carefully selected the Spirit Grass for refining the "True Essence Pill" from a pile of Spirit Grass.
The sources of these herbs included ones collected by Li Yunjing, purchased, and so were spoils of battle.
After finding the right amount of herbs for one batch in the Pill Furnace and carefully inspecting them to ensure there were no issues, Li Yunjing began to think about how to refine the "True Essence Pill".
Li Yunjing constantly contemplated the specific plan for refining in his mind.
However, after a whole incense stick burned down, Li Yunjing still hadn’t fixed on a refining thod.
The content of the second volu of "Alchemy Technique Basics" mostly consisted of basic guidance, without detailed refining processes. The details of heat control and so other alchemical details were not fully recorded.
"Let’s do it this way!"
After an hour, Li Yunjing finally figured it out. He had his own ideas about all the details and the changes in herb properties.
Now, Li Yunjing was ready to start putting his ideas into practice.
Taking out his Tier One Top Grade Pill Furnace, Li Yunjing shook his head slightly. This thing was of poor quality.
Whenever possible, he would definitely spend a sum of money to replace it with a Tier Two Pill Furnace!
No matter how high the price, he had to get hold of a high-quality Pill Furnace.
As he thought, Li Yunjing ignited the Pill Furnace with "Nine Yang Fire," causing fierce flas to rise.
Once the flas fully enveloped the Pill Furnace and the temperature was adjusted to the most suitable level, Li Yunjing began to add various Spirit Grass to the Pill Furnace one by one following the detailed steps.
As the Spirit dicine entered the Pill Furnace, Li Yunjing concentrated fully, focusing all his attention on the Pill Furnace, observing and adjusting the fusion changes of the various Spirit Grass inside.
Previously, when Li Yunjing refined Tier One elixirs, he didn’t need to give his all. He handled various Tier One elixirs with ease.
But now, involving Tier Two elixirs required his full effort, not daring to be negligent.
Ti passed by minute by minute, and the dicinal fragrance emanating from the Pill Furnace beca more intense.
Fortunately, this ti the alchemy went smoothly. Even though it was Li Yunjing’s first attempt, it didn’t affect the success rate of alchemy.
"Bang!"
An hour later, with a dull sound, Li Yunjing lifted the Pill Furnace lid. In the room, the dicinal fragrance of the "True Essence Pill" beca extrely rich.
Slling the pleasant fragrance, the corners of Li Yunjing’s mouth lifted slightly. Such rich dicinal fragrance indicated that the elixirs were definitely up to standard without even looking.
Taking out the ten "True Essence Pills" from inside the Pill Furnace one by one, Li Yunjing suddenly had a trace of disappointnt.
Out of the ten "True Essence Pills," three were obviously of poor quality, not eting the minimum standards at all.
The other seven "True Essence Pills" were of Ninth Grade, without much to comnd.
This alchemy attempt had a seventy percent success rate, and all were the lowest Ninth Grade pills. It could be considered an ordinary alchemy.
Raising his hand, Li Yunjing held the elixir in front of his eyes, inspecting every detail on the "True Essence Pill".
Then he swallowed a "True Essence Pill" and, a mont later, a smile appeared on his lips.
The color, scent, and effect were average, similar to many "True Essence Pills" sold in the shops of the market.
These elixirs were still very suitable for the current Li Yunjing.
As long as he could mass-produce "True Essence Pills," he could not only supply Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi, but also give so to Xing’Er and Yue’Er for them to sell.
"Now, I am also considered a Tier Two Alchemy Master!"
This thought erged in Li Yunjing’s mind.
Generally, Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivators without enough financial resources would typically need ten "True Essence Pills" for cultivation each month.
The price of ten "True Essence Pills" would be 50 Middle Grade Spirit Stones.
Of course, wealthy Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivators did not have this burden. They could take one "True Essence Pill" a day, requiring Li Yunjing to leave himself 100 "True Essence Pills" each month.
And after refining 100 "True Essence Pills," Li Yunjing could give so to Xing’Er and Yue’Er for sale at the "Star Moon Trading Company"!
As for the elixir’s toxicity or resistance issues?
For now, that was not sothing for Li Yunjing to consider!
Taking one a day wouldn’t cause any significant harm to the body; he could still neutralize the toxins through self-regulation.
Regarding resistance, with repeated practice, once Li Yunjing refined higher quality pills, the resistance would also decrease slightly.
With a clear goal, Li Yunjing was full of motivation.
After the Pill Furnace’s temperature dropped, Li Yunjing selected the second set of materials again.
"Try again! Let’s see if I can achieve a 100% success rate."
Li Yunjing thought for a mont, deciding not to focus on improving the pill quality for now. The first step was to increase the success rate.
With a plan in place, Li Yunjing imrsed himself in alchemy completely. He checked each batch after pills were produced, summarized his experience, waited for the Pill Furnace’s temperature to normalize, then started a new batch.
An entire seven days passed, and Li Yunjing refined over fifty batches of elixirs.
He produced a total of 478 "True Essence Pills," of which the majority were Ninth Grade "True Essence Pills," and 28 were Eighth Grade.
Practice makes perfect. After refining so many elixirs repeatedly, Li Yunjing’s alchemy skills improved significantly.
"Unfortunately! All the materials for ’True Essence Pills’ are used up! Not even substitute materials are left."
Li Yunjing stretched lazily, then put away his Pill Furnace, deactivated the restriction, opened the door, and breathed in fresh air.
"Huh? The dicinal fragrance of ’True Essence Pill’?"
"So intense? How much ’True Essence Pill’ was this person refining?"
"Are alchemy masters, such rare talents, risking their lives on the front lines now?"
The dicinal fragrance from over fifty batches of "True Essence Pills" was all confined in the room, blocked by restrictions, unable to disperse outside.
Now that the restrictions were lifted, the fragrance of the "True Essence Pills" spread imdiately.
The people of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" were all Foundation Establishnt Realm experts, with keen senses. They imdiately recognized the elixir fragrance.
Many fellow disciples couldn’t help but start discussing, scanning with their divine sense, wanting to see which fellow disciple was so impressive.
Soon, everyone’s gaze focused on Li Yunjing’s room, where they saw him stretching lazily, stepping out the door, twisting his waist and legs, exercising his tendons and bones.
"Hmm? Why is everyone looking at ?"
With so many divine senses scanning him, Li Yunjing instantly felt uncomfortable. He smiled as he looked around and asked softly.
"Junior Brother Li! Didn’t expect you to be a Tier Two Alchemy Master! Truly impressive!"
Several fellow disciples living close to Li Yunjing’s place ca out, approached his residence, and greeted him with smiles.
