Chapter 509: Mastering Tier 1 Pill Refining
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
With millions of immortal stones, he would be able to obtain millions of energy points. After all, the conversion ratio was 1:1.
This meant that w.a.n.g Mang’s wealth was proportionate to his strength!
He had to become a high-tier alchemist!
Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang’s heart was filled with enthusiasm. However, he quickly left the pill pavilion before he was blinded by the prices.
His first step would be to become a bona fide Tier 1 alchemist. To do this, he had to master seven more types of Tier 1 pills.
After leaving, w.a.n.g Mang familiarized himself with the alchemy area in the academy, and he also managed to find the examination venue, which was the Pill Palace.
Anyone who wanted to become a legitimate alchemist had to pa.s.s the examination here.
Eager to start, he muttered, “System, sell me another seven Tier 1 pill formulas! It would be best if they are high-grade Tier 1 pill formulas!”
[Ding! 7 high-grade Tier 1 pill formulas will cost 50,000 energy points! Exchange?]
“Exchange!” w.a.n.g Mang gritted his teeth.
[Ding! Detected that the host’s current energy points are less than 70,000! A total of 50,000 energy points were deducted, in addition to 20,000 immortal stones!]
[Ding! Congratulations! Obtained 7 high-grade Tier 1 pill formulas!]
w.a.n.g Mang finally heaved a sigh of relief. Although it was expensive, it would all be worth it. That was what he told himself.
Furthermore, aside from that, after buying the pill formulas from the system, he also spent a considerable amount of immortal stones to purchase the ingredients to refine these pills.
He spent half a day in the medicinal herb shops in the alchemy area and bought 50 portions of all the medicinal herbs listed in the seven pill formulas!
He reckoned that these would be enough for him to master these pill recipes.
Fortunately, the price was not overly expensive, and the herbs cost him 10,000 immortal stones altogether. This was partly due to the fact that Tier 1 medicinal herbs were cheap, and that he had bought them in bulk.
After buying the herbs, w.a.n.g Mang rushed to his usual cave in the mountain range and impatiently got to work.
[Life-saving pill: A high-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill. Upon use, it can save a Tier 1 living being on the verge of death.]
Then, it began…
Heating up the furnace…
Infusing spiritual power into the furnace to ignite the flame…
Furthermore, in order to keep the flame burning, w.a.n.g Mang threw two immortal stones into the mix. Alchemy could earn money, but it would also burn money…
Literally!
Once the furnace was hot enough, w.a.n.g Mang waved his hand, and the lid of the furnace opened. Then, he tossed several medicinal herbs into the furnace, after which, green smoke wafted out.
Just like that, within the span of a few minutes, w.a.n.g Mang had tossed dozens of medicinal herbs into the furnace. After that, he closed the lid of the furnace, and focused on controlling the flames and temperature.
The furnace turned red as it floated above the flames, and it also started spinning at high speed.
After a long time…
Bang!
A shocking explosion erupted, and the lid of the furnace flew off!
Black smoke and soot could be seen everywhere!
Unfortunately, his first attempt at refining these pills had met with failure.
“It looks like my flame control is lacking, and that the Life-Saving Pill can’t withstand such high temperatures.”
After muttering to himself for a while, w.a.n.g Mang waved his hand and cleaned out the furnace before continuing his attempts.
Half an hour later…
Bang!
Clearly, the second batch had failed as well.
Two hours later…
Bang!
The third batch of pills had failed!
After failing more than ten times, w.a.n.g Mang finally succeeded in refining the Life-Saving Pills on the thirteenth try!
After opening the lid, w.a.n.g Mang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw a dozen or so pills the size of a thumb lying inside the furnace. Medicinal fragrance wafted out.
He had succeeded!
Not bad, not bad!
He had conquered a high-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill!
After that, w.a.n.g Mang skillfully refined a few more batches of the pills successfully, gradually improving in terms of both technique, as well as the final quality and quant.i.ty of the pills.
This made w.a.n.g Mang extremely happy!
Now, he only had six to go!
This was much faster than when he refined pills in the high-grade world, where he had spent a full year mastering just three types of Tier 1 pills.
Spurred on, he immersed himself into the process of refining pills.
Three days later, w.a.n.g Mang had mastered the fifth high-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill!
Six days later, w.a.n.g Mang had mastered the sixth high-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill!
Ten days later, w.a.n.g Mang had mastered the eighth high-grade Tier 1 medicinal pill!
In the blink of an eye, fifteen days pa.s.sed just like that, and w.a.n.g Mang had lost count of how many pills he had refined. In fact, he had lost track of time completely.
However, he was beaming with pride, because he had successfully mastered ten types of Tier 1 medicinal pills!
Furthermore, his control of the flames as well as his refining technique had increased by leaps and bounds. As such, he no longer ran the risk of having his furnace explode.
w.a.n.g Mang was now qualified to become a true Tier 1 Alchemist!
After refining another cauldron of high-grade Tier 1 medicinal pills, w.a.n.g Mang looked at the pills in the furnace with satisfaction and put them all away.
Now, he could partic.i.p.ate in the examination and become a qualified Tier 1 alchemist!
With this thought in mind, he muttered to himself, “I’m really quite talented, am I not? I’m an alchemy genius!”
