Three days later.
Inside the wooden house in the valley.
Over two hundred porcelain bottles were already laid out on the ground. Aside from over a hundred bottles containing Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplenting Pills,
the remaining bottles contained Second Grade Mind-Nourishing Pills.
These Second Grade Mind-Nourishing Pills were much more difficult to refine than the First-grade Spirit Nourishing Pills and Spirit Supplenting Pills.
The spiritual energy, effort, and divine sense required to refine Second Grade elixirs are several tis more than that for First-grade elixirs, not to ntion the Mind-Nourishing Pills are top-tier Second Grade elixirs.
Thus, Ye Chenfeng spent a full three days to refine over a hundred bottles of Mind-Nourishing Pills.
After three days of continuous refining, now even if Ye Chenfeng closed his eyes, he could almost skillfully refine Mind-Nourishing Pills.
Ye Chenfeng swallowed a few Mind-Nourishing Pills and closed his eyes to rest for a mont.
The Mind-Nourishing Pills nourish the divine sense. After swallowing them, several warm currents converged towards Ye Chenfeng’s Sea of Consciousness in his brow, rapidly restoring his depleted divine sense.
After taking a few Mind-Nourishing Pills, Ye Chenfeng also took a few Spirit Supplenting Pills, quickly replenishing the spiritual energy he had consud.
No wonder the status of alchemists is extrely exalted. With elixirs, cultivators find their training process much more convenient.
When Ye Chenfeng opened his eyes again,
after several days of alchemy, his clothes had beco quite dirty, but his spirit was fully restored. He was ready to push himself to beco a Third-Rank Alchemist in one go.
Ye Chenfeng slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and then asked himself internally, "Old Bai, what’s the most difficult elixir to refine among the Third-Grade elixirs?"
Old Bai, Wu Fengxian, shook his head helplessly and said, "Little guy, do you really intend to push yourself to beco a Third-Rank Alchemist in one go? Well, with your talent, ordinary logic can’t judge it. A few days ago, you beca a Fifth-Rank Artifact Refiner in one shot."
Adjusting his emotions, Old Bai Wu Fengxian said, "Little guy, the pinnacle of Third-Grade elixirs is the Condensing Vein Pill! If you can successfully refine the Condensing Vein Pill, you can be called a Third-Rank Alchemist."
"The Condensing Vein Pill can strengthen and expand a cultivator’s ridians, and it has extrely powerful effects even for powerhouses in the Nirvana Realm."
"However, as far as I know, the formula for the Condensing Vein Pill has long been lost in the Earth Profound Realm, and alchemists there can’t refine it anymore."
"But the formula for the Condensing Vein Pill that I hold is definitely the most exceptional."
"Next, I’ll demonstrate the thod of refining the Condensing Vein Pill in your mind. It’s several tis more challenging to refine than the Mind-Nourishing Pill. So, little guy, you must carefully observe every step without the slightest deviation during the alchemical process."
After speaking,
Old Bai Wu Fengxian began demonstrating the thod of refining the Condensing Vein Pill in Ye Chenfeng’s mind.
Ye Chenfeng closed his eyes, morizing every action of Old Bai.
Once Old Bai finished demonstrating the Condensing Vein Pill refinent thod, Ye Chenfeng opened his eyes,
and after morizing Old Bai’s technique repeatedly until he fully grasped it, he prepared to begin refining the Condensing Vein Pill.
Refining the Condensing Vein Pill required Lotus Ear Leaf, Heart Piercing Grass, Blue Grass Vine, and Green Fruit Flower, these four types of spirit grass.
With the increase in the grade of elixirs, the required spirit grass becos more precious. For instance, among these four spirit grasses, the Green Fruit Flower is extrely rare throughout the Earth Profound Realm, and placing it in an auction would certainly yield an astronomical price.
However, for Ye Chenfeng, these are not problems at all, as the treasures of the entire Blood Soul Clan are within his storage ring, and at least for now, the heaven-sent treasures from the Blood Soul Clan’s treasury are sufficient for him.
Ye Chenfeng’s storage ring also contained the four types of spirit grass required to refine the Condensing Vein Pill.
A flash from the storage ring on Ye Chenfeng’s finger brought a large pile of spirit grass for the Condensing Vein Pill neatly arranged beside him.
With a flick of his finger, the Green Fla shot into the black dicine cauldron again.
Based on the demonstration by Old Bai Wu Fengxian, Ye Chenfeng knew that among these four spirit grasses, the Blue Grass Vine and Green Fruit Flower were the most challenging to handle. If the temperature of the Green Fla deviated even slightly, the Blue Grass Vine and Green Fruit Flower would imdiately turn to ash.
Ye Chenfeng took a slow breath, allowing himself to enter the Ethereal State.
This Ethereal State is a special state that seems to rge with nature.
It’s unclear when Ye Chenfeng started being able to freely control his entrance into the Ethereal State.
This Ethereal State is extrely rare and invaluable for alchemists, artifact refiners, and talisman masters alike.
Entering the Ethereal State ans having no distractions in the mind, not being influenced by anything around, and greatly increasing the success rate when refining elixirs, crafting weapons, or making spirit talismans.
Ye Chenfeng, imrsed in the Ethereal State, even ignored the conversation between Old Bai and Old Hei in his mind.
Old Hei Jiang Yuntian sighed, "Old Bai, do you think this kid got lucky? Back in the day, it took several years to comprehend the ability to freely enter the Ethereal State."
Old Bai Wu Fengxian laughed, "Old Hei, the more talented this little guy is, the more hope we have. I’m increasingly certain that this little guy will help us fulfill our wishes in the future."
Ye Chenfeng didn’t hear the conversation between Old Bai and Old Hei. At this mont, only two words existed in his heart, "Alchemy."
Ye Chenfeng continuously controlled the temperature of the Green Fla.
He first threw the Lotus Ear Leaf and Heart Piercing Grass into the black dicine cauldron.
These two spirit grasses are relatively easy to refine, and under Ye Chenfeng’s control, they quickly lted.
Then, Ye Chenfeng tossed the Blue Grass Vine and Green Fruit Flower into the dicine cauldron.
Under Ye Chenfeng’s careful control.
Initially, the Blue Grass Vine and Green Fruit Flower also lted smoothly, but when the four types of spirit grasses were about to fuse together.
After lting, the Blue Grass Vine and Green Fruit Flower beca unstable.
There was a slight, almost negligible deviation in Ye Chenfeng’s control of the Green Fla.
But it was just this slight deviation that caused it.
"Whoosh!" A sound.
The lted spirit grasses in the black dicine cauldron instantly turned into ashes.
The first attempt to refine the Condensing Vein Pill failed.
Afterwards, Ye Chenfeng began the second attempt.
However, the second attempt also ended with the spirit grasses turning into ashes due to a slight deviation.
...
It wasn’t until the fourth attempt.
After three failures, Ye Chenfeng controlled the Green Fla with extre precision.
The four types of liquid spirit grasses finally began to slowly fuse together.
As ti went on.
The four types of spirit grasses rged into a green liquid.
Ye Chenfeng knew that the most difficult hurdle was over, but he still didn’t dare to relax.
About twenty minutes later.
The liquid in the black dicine cauldron had already taken the shape of elixirs, with strands of elixir fragrance slowly drifting out from the cauldron.
Green light flickered.
Ye Chenfeng withdrew the Green Fla back to his Dantian.
At once, six Third-grade Condensing Vein Pills appeared in the dicine cauldron.
With the successful refinent of the Condensing Vein Pill, Ye Chenfeng once again advanced to a Third-grade Alchemist.
In the subsequent five days.
Ye Chenfeng refined hundreds more bottles of Condensing Vein Pills, and he beca extrely proficient in the technique of refining them.
After advancing to a Third-grade Alchemist, Ye Chenfeng was in no hurry to rush to the Fourth-grade Alchemist; he planned to rest well for a few days.
As he just broke through during artifact refining not long ago, although this ti his spiritual energy was also greatly depleted, it wasn’t enough to enhance his strength further.
However, Ye Chenfeng clearly felt that it wouldn’t take long before he could step into the third level of the Divine Thought Realm.
...
Outside the valley, Dong Xiaoi and Dong Chengfei had been guarding all the while.
During these days, as they stayed outside the valley, they suddenly slled the scent of elixirs drifting out from the valley.
Dong Chengfei said, "Sis, did you sll it? There’s a scent coming from the valley, I need to go in and see what boss is doing."
As Dong Chengfei walked into the valley, Dong Xiaoi also entered the valley.
After days of Ye Chenfeng’s non-stop alchemy.
The valley was faintly filled with the scent of elixirs.
This scent of elixirs made Dong Xiaoi and Dong Chengfei yearn greatly, and they unconsciously headed towards the wooden house. When they entered the wooden house and saw the dicine cauldron and hundreds of bottles of elixirs on the ground.
Dong Xiaoi and Dong Chengfei were utterly dumbfounded, Dong Chengfei stamred, "Bo-boss, you, you’re also an Alchemist?"
Dong Xiaoi’s beautiful eyes burst with a look of shock, she murmured in disbelief, "How is this possible? You’re not only an Artifact Refiner; you’re also an Alchemist? How can soone like you exist in this world? Cultivating both alchemy and crafting simultaneously? Dual cultivation of alchemy and crafting?"
