The requirents for the flas used in making the Martial Vein Body Shaping Pills differ significantly from those for the Top-quality True Essence Pills.
The forr requires intense heat during the refining process but demands a sudden extinguishing of the flas at a certain point.
If described with a waveform, the fla pattern for the Martial Vein Body Shaping Pills would be sharp peaks without any curvature, reflecting dramatic fluctuations.
In contrast, the flas for the Top-quality True Essence Pill maintain a very smooth curve, with the intensity of the flas changing gently.
Mastering two completely different thods of fla control is certainly not easy.
But this is only true for others; for Ling Xiao, it’s not really a problem.
Under the state of Soul Entry, the flas are like an extension of his own arm; he can control them perfectly, whether it’s in terms of size or temperature.
If there’s no problem with fla control, the rest is relatively simple.
What’s needed next is just to wait.
About one quarter of a shichen later, Ling Xiao lifted the lid off the alchemy furnace.
For others, this process would take at least a whole shichen.
That’s his advantage.
However, it was still his first ti refining Martial Vein Body Shaping Pills, and there was a hint of nervousness in his heart, as could be seen from the beads of sweat on his forehead.
The mont the alchemy furnace was opened, ten golden lights flew out, and in front of him appeared ten Martial Vein Body Shaping Pills, each emitting a golden glow.
When pills form, peculiar patterns erge on their surface.
These patterns are the best way to identify the type of pill.
This is sothing that cannot be faked, and even the most skilled alchemists don’t understand why the patterns appear; they can only attribute it to so opportunity within the natural world.
Although it was his first ti refining Martial Vein Body Shaping Pills, the success rate was still one hundred percent, but the perfection compared to the Top-quality True Essence Pill was slightly lacking.
Out of the batch, five pills reached perfection, four were at ninety percent, and one was at eighty percent perfection.
For others, such results might already be cause for joyous celebration.
But Ling Xiao was not satisfied.
He sat there, carefully recalling everything he did during the pill refinent process, hoping to pinpoint what went wrong. That way, he could correct these issues the next ti.
He realized that the key issue was the nervousness that caused his hand to tremble slightly when opening the furnace, leading to a slight delay in unveiling the pills.
Such a small mistake caused what were supposed to be perfectly refined pills to have flaws.
If one can’t achieve perfection even with lower-tier pills, how can they even think of producing higher-grade pills?
Ling Xiao repeatedly reflected on himself, being incredibly strict, almost to a terrifying extent.
He was well aware that he was different from others; as soone who possessed the Mountain and River Martial Soul, he should excel beyond others in all respects.
If he fell short in any aspect, it would be a sheer waste of the powerful existence that is the Mountain and River Martial soul.
Thirty perfectly refined Top-quality True Essence Pills could sell for a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones each, while ordinary Top-quality True Essence Pills could only fetch one hundred low-grade Spirit Stones. That’s the difference!
With great skill cos greater earnings, a fact well understood by alchemists.
The five perfectly refined Martial Vein Body Shaping Pills could also sell for a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones each, while the remaining five could only fetch nine hundred and eight hundred low-grade Spirit Stones, respectively.
By this count, he truly made a fortune this ti.
A total of three hundred low-grade spirit stones, plus the silver exchanged for less than a hundred low-grade spirit stones, was all his cost.
The pills he had refined, however, were worth close to forty thousand low-grade spirit stones!
So thrilling, he could now go to the trading market and buy four lower-tier yellow rank Transcendent Body Sculpting Pills.
This is the life of an alchemist, with good technique one would never be short of spirit stones.
When the two types of pills were finished refining, he retracted his two avatars.
The content of the "Eternal Divine Pill Scripture" had completely integrated into his soul, and he understood the simpler parts.
However, the scripture was exceedingly profound, with many contents being obscure and difficult to understand, so without help, it was impossible for him to clarify them in a short period of ti.
But such matters can’t be rushed; he could take his ti to understand, slowly comprehending.
Alchemy is a lifelong pursuit, and such things cannot be achieved overnight.
Moreover, he also rembered all the books about array formations and magic arrays that Yuan Venerate had given him, which were all basics and relatively easy to understand, requiring no second reading, nor did he need to ask anyone else.
While studying these books on array formations and magic arrays, Ling Xiao had so realizations.
He found that his comprehension of the "Bronze Scroll of Sword Control Technique" had advanced even further.
This ti, without any deliberate practice, he had surprisingly reached the ninth layer’s great perfection realm.
The reason was simple.
The last three layers of the "Bronze Scroll of Sword Control Technique" were mostly related to array formations, and his previous inability to comprehend them stemd purely from a complete lack of understanding of both array formations and magic arrays.
Now, after reading the books given by Yuan Venerate, everything was clear in his mind.
Upon reaching the perfection realm in this sword control technique, one would automatically learn a sword array called "Heavenly Gang Sword Formation."
But it required at least thirty-six flying swords.
His Gentle Breeze Sword had long beco inadequate, and now he had another goal: to obtain at least thirty-six fine treasure-grade flying swords.
Forging them himself was also a possibility.
However, he didn’t yet have the skill level for such forging, and blacksmiths in the Mountain and River World could currently only make weapons of fine treasure grade at best, incapable of higher-level forging.
Thus, his plan was to first forge thirty-six fine treasure flying swords and then, upon acquiring additional precious treasure artifacts in the future, to use lting stones for refining.
After all, lting stones were purchasable in the trading market, priced at one thousand low-grade spirit stones each; while pricey, it didn’t seem like much to him, an alchemist.
After this idea took shape, he had his Martial Soul Avatar start forging the flying swords, a process that was expected to take so ti.
Ling Xiao observed that it was still early in the day, so he cald his mind and took out the "Sealing Gods Record" for further contemplation.
He had always felt that the Sealing Gods Record was extrely powerful, containing everything including alchemy, artifact refining, array formation, martial arts, divine abilities, and more.
Even though his current low cultivation level ant he could only study so of the lower-level mystic arts, even so, each day’s contemplation yielded no small gains.
So things might be useless today, but they could beco essential in the future.
Within the Sealing Gods Record, the mystic arts of body movent techniques were plentiful, with ancient warriors capable of flying through the sky and escaping through the earth effortlessly.
While Ling Xiao was unable to comprehend those skills, through his study of these body movent mystic arts, his "Cloud Dragon Divine Movent" had finally entered the "Transcendental Realm" after a period of stagnation.
Both his speed and ti spent airborne had significantly improved compared to before.
In addition, there was an even greater variety of mystic arts related to sword control techniques within the Sealing Gods Record.
