Xiao Yan: "Xiong Ba truly lives up to his na as a formidable warlord. He knows how to weigh gains and losses. While 5000 points are important, they pale in comparison to one’s life."
Huang Rong: "With Sister Lu making a move, this Duan Lang shouldn’t pose much of a threat. By the way, Xiao Yan, your strength broke past the Dou Practitioner stage long ago, and you’ve already taken Yao Lao as your master. Can you refine so pills for sale?"
Lu Xueqi: "Indeed, Xiao Yan, you should already be able to refine pills, right? I wonder if you’d consider selling so."
Xiao Yan: "Pills? Of course I can refine them, but I’m only a 2nd-grade Alchemist right now. My ability is limited—I can’t make high-tier pills yet."
Huang Rong: "That’s fine, Xiao Yan. Our strength is limited too. Second-grade pills are more than enough."
Xiao Yan: "Alright. Since you all need them, I’ll upload so of the pills I’ve refined previously."
Lu Yu: "That’s great, Xiao Yan. Upload more if you can. If you can’t make higher-grade pills yet, you could ask Yao Lao to lend a hand. Pills are consumables, so they should be quite valuable."
Xiao Yan: "Got it. I understand."
Lu Xueqi: "Oh right, Xiao Yan, do you have any alchemist notes? If so, would you be willing to sell them?"
At this mont, in the Dou Qi World, Xiao Yan was montarily stunned when he saw Lu Xueqi’s inquiry.
He couldn’t help but wonder: Could it be that Lu Xueqi also wanted to learn alchemy?
Just as the thought arose, Xiao Yan shook his head.
He knew full well that alchemy in his world was vastly different from that of other worlds.
Even if he passed on the technique to Lu Xueqi, it might be of no use.
After all, other worlds didn’t even have the herbs required for pill refinent.
Xiao Yan: "Lu Xueqi, do you want alchemist notes because you wish to beco an alchemist?"
Lu Xueqi: "Xiao Yan, I do have that intention. Even if I can’t beco one, learning more about pharmacology could help be better prepared for future troubles."
Xiao Yan: "I do have so alchemist notes, and so does my teacher. However, the thods and herbs for pill refinent in my world might not exist in yours. Are you sure you still want them?"
As a fellow group mber, Xiao Yan didn’t want to withhold anything—especially since he had a favorable impression of Lu Xueqi.
Lu Xueqi: "Even if there are differences, I’d still like to study them. If I can’t refine anything, I won’t bla you."
Xiao Yan: "Alright then."
Xiao Yan: "I’ll upload the alchemist notes my teacher compiled to the chat group now. These notes record pill-refining thods and prescriptions from apprentice level up to the fifth-grade alchemist. You’ll have to purchase them yourself."
Lu Xueqi: "Thank you very much, Xiao Yan."
Xiao Yan: "We’re all in the sa group—no need to be polite."
After speaking, Xiao Yan retrieved the pills he had recently refined and the alchemist notes from his storage ring and uploaded them to the chat group marketplace.
Lu Xueqi browsed through the marketplace and found that most of the listings were low-tier or first- and second-grade pills. High-grade pills were scarce, and she figured most of the pills must have been refined by Xiao Yan.
She skimd through the listings quickly and locked her gaze on the alchemist notes. Seeing that they were priced at 1000 points, she imdiately decided to purchase them.
But as she silently chanted the purchase command, a system notification rang out, indicating that the purchase had failed.
Lu Xueqi paused in surprise. Upon closer inspection, she realized that after upgrading her strength earlier, she had nearly depleted her points—only 900 remained, 100 short.
Still, she didn’t panic. She imdiately uploaded a martial technique she had developed in her mind.
In an instant, 300 points were credited to her account.
Only then was Lu Xueqi able to successfully purchase the alchemist notes.
The mont she completed the purchase, the notes transford into a book.
Unable to wait, Lu Xueqi opened it, and a flood of alchemical knowledge poured into her mind, which she firmly morized.
Through her studies, she discovered that alchemy in Xiao Yan’s world was quite unique. Many of the required herbs were extrely rare or nonexistent in her own world.
However, with her Heaven-Defying Comprehension, Lu Xueqi stared at the pill formulas for a while and soon thought of substituting herbs from her own world.
At present, though, she still lacked so basic knowledge of this world’s dicinal herbs.
Even with Heaven-Defying Comprehension, it was impossible to create suitable pill formulas out of thin air.
Such a talent was indeed extraordinary, but its foundation lay in having at least a basic understanding of the subject to be comprehended.
Within the library pavilion of Xiaozhu Peak were stored all kinds of miscellaneous books collected over the years.
dical texts, classics, histories, philosophical works—there was a vast and diverse collection.
On ordinary days, only one or two regular disciples guarded the library. After all, there were no cultivation techniques kept within, so it wasn’t considered a critical location.
These disciples were not only responsible for guarding the pavilion but also for cleaning and maintaining its tidiness.
When the junior sisters saw Lu Xueqi arrive, they all bowed respectfully.
“Greetings, Senior Sister Lu!”
Lu Xueqi gave a light nod in acknowledgnt and then stepped into the library. The disciples did not stop her.
Now, Lu Xueqi’s reputation on Xiaozhu Peak had spread far and wide. Many junior sisters had heard of her formidable cultivation.
The mont she stepped inside, Lu Xueqi released her spiritual power to scan the surroundings.
In an instant, she locked onto her target book—《Comprehensive Guide to dicinal Herbs》.
Her figure flashed as she swiftly approached the bookshelf and pulled out the book.
Afterward, she found a seat by the window and quietly began to read.
As she delved deeper into the book, a vast amount of knowledge surged into Lu Xueqi’s mind.
She began cross-referencing the pill refinent techniques in the alchemist notes Xiao Yan had sent with the dicinal knowledge from this book.
Gradually, countless flashes of inspiration burst forth in her mind.
One pill formula after another, along with various refining techniques, were comprehended by her in succession.
Ti passed silently, and before she knew it, evening had fallen.
Lu Xueqi glanced out the window at the darkening sky and stretched her body slightly, a faint smile curving at her lips.
After half a day of intense study and comparison, she had not only thoroughly grasped the alchemy techniques from the alchemist notes she purchased from Xiao Yan, but had also successfully adapted them to the dicinal herbs of her own world.
What’s more, she had confidently derived several sixth-grade pill formulas on her own.
Looking at her accomplishnts, Lu Xueqi felt deeply satisfied.
She glanced once more at the dim sky around her.
In a flash, she returned to her quarters to rest.
As for the art of alchemy, she planned to visit Xiaozhu Peak’s Alchemy Hall the next day.
There, she would seek out so herbs to test whether the pill formulas and refining thods she had comprehended were truly viable.
Though her Heaven-Defying Comprehension gave her every reason to believe in the accuracy of her results, she still felt that practical verification was the most reliable path.
