Chapter 98: Refining the Qi Nourishing Pill

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He Qingge returned to his courtyard from the Thousand Treasures Pavilion with satisfaction. He took out the Dragon Tiger Cauldron he had bought from his storage ring.

He circulated the spiritual power in his body to continuously cleanse the cauldron, exploring every part of the cauldron to fully understand it.

It was the sacrificial refinement before using the Dragon Tiger Cauldron.

Soon after the refinement was completed, the Dragon Tiger Top flickered with a faint light.

He Qingge drew out a flame to roast the Dragon Tiger Cauldron.

Slowly, the flame began to grow stronger, covering the entire bottom of the medicinal cauldron.

He Qingge wanted to refine the Qi Nourishment Pill.

[Materials: Three basic spirit coins, hundred-year-old Medicinal Qi

Accumulating Grass, hundred -year-old medicinal mountain ginseng, and Seven-Star Light Flower.]

After the cauldron was heated up, He Qingge placed the hundred-year-old ginseng and a spirit coins into the cauldron.

He controlled the temperature and continued to refine the hundred-year-old ginseng. The special flame and special fire control technique prevented the ginseng from emitting a burnt smell. Instead, it was a way to extract the essence of the herbs inside.

Without a special flame and a special fire control technique, there would be problems. The spirit coins would not melt, but the mountain ginseng would slowly be roasted and charred, losing its medicinal properties.

From this, it could be seen that alchemy was a rather profound skill.

From the control of the flame to the selection of medicinal ingredients, as well as the selection of the medicinal cauldron and the order of placing the medicinal ingredients, all of them needed to be done with considerable precision.

It could be said that if any step went wrong, the pill refinement would fail.

It was precisely because of this that alchemists were extremely rare, and alchemy was especially difficult, with a very high price to pay.

As a result, the status of alchemists was quite high. Even among the hundred arts of cultivation, the status of alchemists was also at the top. It could even be said that they were independent.

He Qingge carefully followed the pill recipe’s records, as well as the alchemy skills and alchemy techniques he had learned before to refine the pill.

Soon, the spirit coins began to melt in the Dragon Tiger Cauldron, and a kind of spirit liquid similar to colloid appeared. The hundred-year-old mountain ginseng also slowly appeared. A layer of jade-green liquid fused with the spirit liquid.

The cauldron emitted a faint fragrance, as well as a thick smell of mountain ginseng.

He Qingge heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the two spiritual liquids blending together.

The first part was completed.

As the temperature of the flame increased, the color of the spirit liquid inside slowly changed.

The moment the color changed, he threw the Seven-star Light Flower into it.

The flower itself did not have any special medicinal properties. Even if it did, its medicinal properties would lose their effect under such high temperature. However, it had another function, which was to neutralize the medicinal effects of the mountain ginseng and the Qi Accumulating Grass.

The moment the Seven-star Light Flower was thrown in, a huge flame erupted. The raging flames instantly devoured the Seven-Star Light Flower and the spirit liquid inside.

The moment it swallowed the medicinal liquid, a powerful explosion occurred.

Intense smoke spread out from the medicinal cauldron.

He Qingge’s face instantly turned black, and he looked extremely miserable.

Clearly, his first attempt at refining pills had failed.

He Qingge pondered and concluded his mistake. Everything was fine before, but the problem should have happened the moment the Seven-Star Light Flower was thrown in.

After repeated failures and repeated conclusions, He Qingge finally managed to refine the Qi Nourishing Pill independently.

He Qingge’s first success was recorded in the Wisdom Scripture Divine Wheel. He rarely failed again and continued to improve on this basis.

“Master, you’ve been refining pills for too long. You need to rest and strike a balance between work and rest.” Lil Butterly looked at He Qingge’s thick black eyes and said worriedly.

He had been continuously refining pills like this for more than a month. It was as if he had been possessed.

“Lil Butterly, look, I’ve already succeeded!

“This is the result of my hard work for so long, so I can’t relax. I have to work hard and cultivate.”

He Qingge placed the refined pills into the pill bottle and began to feed Lil Butterly chicken soup.

He could basically refine all the basic pills now.

Lil Butterly thought, ‘I was so worried about you, but you’re feeding me chicken soup as soon as you’re done?!’

“What’s with that look? Did I say something wrong? It took me so long to succeed.”

Lil Butterly laughed.

Before He Qingge obtained the Great Wisdom Scripture, he had cultivated Igniting Fire. At that time, he had cultivated the proficiency of Igniting Fire for a long time, but there was basically no improvement.

It was true that hard work could make one stronger, but if he did not cheat, how could he be like this?

He Qingge had tricked Lil Butterfly into copying books for so long.

Now, it was almost instinctive. Whenever it saw a book in its hand, the first thought it would have was whether to copy it.

Damn it!

After living together for so long, it had never seen He Qingge copy books.

Every time he was asked, he would reply that he had copied it before and had already passed this stage.

He Qingge shook his head helplessly. It was getting harder and harder to fool Lil Butterflv.

Lil Butterfly had cultivated the cultivation method given by Su Zimei, and its cultivation speed was much faster now.

“Big Senior, Big Senior…”

A childish voice sounded at the door. There was no need to think about it. There was only one person who could call him that and appear at the place where the legacy disciples were.

It was Luo Qiu, the princess brought back from the Fire Kingdom, the owner of the heavenly spiritual root. She was eventually accepted by his master, Jiang Qingyan, as a disciple. She was considered his junior.

“Why are you calling me Big Senior?” He Qingge smiled and patted Luo Qiuci’s head.

She was a very beautiful little girl, like a porcelain doll.

“Doesn’t that suit you better? Moreover, others call you Senior, and I want to call you Big Senior to show my uniqueness.” Luo Qiuci raised her head and smiled, as if she was saying, ‘Hurry up and praise me.’

“Hahaha, you want to be different from the rest.”

“Big Senior, you can only allow me to call you that in the future!” Luo Qiuci pouted.

“Alright!” He Qingge agreed.

“Big Senior, I’ve been cultivating recently. Why do I feel that my abdomen is warm and bloated?” Luo Qiuci bit her lip and asked.

He Qingge placed his palm on Luo Qiuci’s stomach and poured his spiritual power into it. “Then let me take a look.”

“Did you secretly eat something?”

Luo Qiuci blinked innocently.

He Qingge shook his head helplessly. As an alchemist, he could clearly sense that there was an undigested pill in Luo Qiuci’s Sea of Qi.

The Qi Gathering Pill was a type of supplementary cultivation pill that was more powerful than the Qi Nourishing Pill at the Qi Refinement Realm.

Luo Qiuci had just started cultivating, so she was not suited to take this pill.

That was why the energy that had accumulated in her sea of vital energy had yet to dissipate completely.

“You!” He Qingge tapped her forehead and said earnestly, “Right now, your priority is to stabilize your foundation. Don’t be in such a hurry to cultivate. If your foundation isn’t firm enough, you won’t have a good future..”
