Making Medicinal Pills

Lin Ming didn't stay with Elder Huo for long. After asking Elder Huo a few questions about refining the Elder Huo Fire Cleansing Pill, he left.

Elder Huo did not try to stop him. Firstly, Lin Ming needed time to reflect on the gains he had made from refining the Tier 4 Medicinal Pill, and there was little point in him staying here.

Back in his courtyard, Lin Ming processed the problems he had encountered during the alchemy process and Elder Huo's explanations of these problems.

Although Lin Ming succeeded in refining the Fire Cleansing Pill, the process of Pill Fusion was still incredibly dangerous. If it weren't for good luck, the cauldron would have exploded. So, problems still exist.

After combining the problems in the refining process with Elder Huo's explanation, Lin Ming instantly understood his shortcomings in the process of Fire Cleansing Pill Fusion.

Lin Ming still has the ingredients for two batches of Fire Cleansing Pill. He plans to refine them tomorrow, hoping that the next two attempts at refining Fire Cleansing Pill will not be so dangerous.

After pondering the problem of refining the Fire Cleansing Pill, Lin Ming had an idea and took out the Earth Heart Fire Stone.

Gazing at the enormous blue stone, about the size of a human head, with veins resembling roots, and valued at nearly three million, he fell into deep thought.

Even this prematurely formed Green Lotus Core Flame Earth Core Fire when it was formed, and which could not give birth to the Green Lotus Core Flame Earth Heart Fire Stone, still contains such enormous energy.

What incredible energy must the Green Lotus Core Flame possess, which was truly born from Lotus Pedestal that had been compressed for thousands of years, shrinking the enormous energy of the mountains to the size of only one person sitting on it?

It seems that the mature Green Lotus Core Flame beneath the Tagor Desert, which I knew about, is now out of my reach, Lin Ming.

Not to mention the Snake Person in the Tagor Desert, the commotion caused by obtaining the Heavenly Flames would definitely alarm Queen Medusa. Furthermore, given Lin Ming's current strength, it wouldn't be long before his Dou Qi was completely exhausted after entering the lava. At that point, Lin Ming's only fate in the lava would be to be reduced to ashes.

Even ignoring all that, even if Lin Ming successfully obtained the Green Lotus Core Flame now, Lin Ming wouldn't dare to refine it. Without the protection of corresponding elixirs, rashly absorbing and refining the Green Lotus Core Flame wouldn't be refining Heavenly Flames, but rather being refined by the Heavenly Flames until there's not even a trace left.

After regaining his senses, Lin Ming looked at the Earth Heart Fire Stone in his hand, thought for a moment, and decided not to absorb it for now. Lin Ming himself felt that his cultivation had advanced a bit too quickly during this period, so he decided to leave the Earth Heart Fire Stone until he reached the Peak Dou Master before absorbing it.

With the pure energy of the Earth Heart Fire Stone, Lin Ming thought he should be able to break through to the Da Dou Shi. Thinking this, he put the Earth Heart Fire Stone back into his Storage Ring, saving it for later use.

As dusk approached, Lin Ming began preparing dinner. After finishing his meal and washing up, Lin Ming started his Dou Qi cultivation for the night. Lin Ming stopped cultivating near midnight and soon fell asleep.

Early in the morning, a knock on the door woke Lin Ming from his sleep. He got up, went to the courtyard, and opened the gate. A Little Girl with long purple hair, who was about waist-high to Lin Ming, appeared in his eyes.

The Little Girl looked at Lin Ming with her big eyes and a smile on her face, which instantly made Lin Ming was a little grumpy when he woke up, disappear.

"Zi Yan, why are you here so early? Come in!" Lin Ming stepped aside to let Zi Yan in.

"Lin Ming, I was afraid you were hungry, so I came early this morning to bring you breakfast." Zi Yan said sincerely, then raised her small hand, which was indeed carrying breakfast.

Although Lin Ming knew Zi Yan's intentions, Lin Ming already very grateful that Zi Yan had the heart to bring him breakfast, so he didn't expose Zi Yan true purpose.

After receiving breakfast from Zi Yan, Lin Ming led Zi Yan into the courtyard and said to Zi Yan, "After I finish breakfast, I'll make some Medicinal Pill for you."

"Hehe, Lin Ming, you're so kind. These are the medicinal herbs I brought. If you need any, Lin Ming can take some. The rest can be refined like the Medicinal Pill we made yesterday." After saying this, Zi Yan licked her lips as if savoring the taste of the Medicinal Pill.

The few Medicinal Pill Lin Ming had prepared for her yesterday were all consumed before she even returned to the Inner Academy to retrieve the medicinal herbs. Heaven knows how she endured the ordeal last night before finally coming to find Lin Ming this morning.

Although Zi Yan consumed the Form-Shifting Grass and shed her Magical Beasts form to become a Little Girl, she was still ultimately Magical Beasts.

Magical Beasts are straightforward and don't have many hidden agendas. So Lin Ming knew that Zi Yan was getting impatient, so he didn't delay. After quickly finishing his breakfast, he picked up the Storage Ring that Zi Yan handed him and went inside to help Zi Yan refine the medicinal herbs into Medicinal Pill.

Upon entering the house, he opened Zi Yan's Storage Ring and took out all the medicinal herbs.

"Purple Spirit Body-Sculpting Flower... Frost Grass... Purple Mark Vine..."

Lin Ming stared wide-eyed at the medicinal herbs on the ground. Not a single one of these herbs was of a lower grade than the herbs used to refine the Lin Ming Fire Cleansing Pill.

On the contrary, it could be said that the medicinal materials used in Lin Ming's Fire Cleansing Pill were only the worst among the medicinal materials that Zi Yan brought.

Among these medicinal herbs, Lin Ming also discovered three types used to refine the Tier 6 Medicinal Pill, "Spirit Dou Pill." At this moment, Lin Ming could no longer resist and directly took these three herbs for himself. Then, after a sigh, he began to help Zi Yan refine the remaining medicinal herbs.

Helping Zi Yan refine these medicinal herbs into Medicinal Pill would be incredibly simple. Even a Fire Attribute person could do it, let alone Alchemist.

The principle is the same as cooking in my past life. Raw vegetables taste bitter and astringent. But when you cook them and add seasonings, they can be transformed into delicious dishes.

Lin Ming's current method is similar to cooking. After roasting the medicinal herbs over a flame, he adds some candy to flavor them, giving them a sweet and sour taste and removing the original bitterness of the herbs.

Finally, use your Spiritual Strength to divide the medicinal materials into several portions, and then shape them into Sugar Pill.

Medicinal Pill made so simply through refining contain unneutralized Violent Factor. If a human were to consume them, the unneutralized berserk energy alone would be enough to cause serious harm, not to mention the alien energy that humans simply cannot absorb. Only Magical Beasts like Zi Yan would dare to consume them in this way.

It took Lin Ming half a day to refine all of Zi Yan's medicinal herbs into Medicinal Pill.

After refining the Medicinal Pill, Lin Ming placed them into Jade Bottle, labeled them with the medicinal ingredients and flavor of each, and then stored all the Jade Bottle in the Storage Ring given to him by Zi Yan.

After getting up and stretching, Lin Ming walked out of the room.

Seeing Lin Ming come out, Zi Yan immediately went to Lin Ming's side, looking at Lin Ming expectantly.

Seeing Zi Yan's expectant look, Lin Ming smiled and handed Zi Yan the Storage Ring containing the Medicinal Pill, telling Zi Yan that he had taken three kinds of ingredients for the Spirit Dou Pill from her medicinal herbs.

Sensing the many Jade Bottle inside her Storage Ring, Zi Yan took out Jade Bottle, poured out a Medicinal Pill, and eagerly swallowed it, savoring the taste she had longed for all night.

The Medicinal Pill entered her mouth, and that familiar sweet and sour taste filled her mouth once again. At this moment, Zi Yan felt that life was so blissful. As for Lin Ming's claim that he had taken three of her medicinal herbs, Zi Yan completely ignored it.

She had brought over a hundred medicinal herbs this time, while Lin Ming had only taken three. She felt no resentment whatsoever. In her imagination, she would have been willing to accept if Lin Ming had left her half of the herbs. Besides, there were only three, far from her expectations, so of course she wouldn't mind.

Zi Yan was worried that Lin Ming might not bring enough Medicinal Pill, and that he wouldn't make these pills for her anymore. So, after swallowing one Medicinal Pill, she said to Lin Ming, "Lin Ming, you can actually bring more herbs in the future. Just make the Medicinal Pill for me after I've finished them."

Lin Ming understood Zi Yan's meaning perfectly. He smiled and said to Zi Yan, "Zi Yan, don't worry! I'll definitely make Medicinal Pill for you whenever I have time."

"As for the medicinal herbs, if I need any, I'll take them. If not, then forget it."

Hearing Lin Ming's words, Zi Yan nodded in relief, smiled happily, and then took out a Medicinal Pill and put it in her mouth.

Looking at Zi Yan's adorable appearance, Lin Ming truly found it hard to associate her with Magical Beasts. Perhaps this is a case of not judging a book by its cover!

After receiving the Medicinal Pill, Zi Yan didn't stay with Lin Ming for long before leaving. Before leaving, she made sure to tell Lin Ming that she would come back to see Lin Ming after she finished taking the Medicinal Pill.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Lin Ming quickly finished his lunch and then went to the Alchemy Room. After a morning of refining medicinal herbs, Lin Ming felt that he was in good condition, so he decided to refine the two remaining Fire Cleansing Pill from yesterday. It would be a good opportunity to verify the theory with practice.

Lin Ming took out the Crimson Flow Gold Cauldron and placed it on the ground. He stretched out a hand and placed it on one of the fire holes of the Crimson Flow Gold Cauldron. He circulated his internal Dou Qi, and a Golden Flame rose from the Crimson Flow Gold Cauldron.

Once the temperature inside the Medicinal Cauldron was about right, Lin Ming began adding the medicinal herbs and started refining the medicine.

The sun had completely set, and the stars outside were dazzling.

Alchemy Room, Lin Ming, who had stopped channeling his Dou Qi, drew a round, green pill the size of a Lin Ming in his hand.

Looking at the Fire Cleansing Pill he had refined in his hand, Lin Ming could feel that this Fire Cleansing Pill was even more perfect than the one he had refined yesterday, which also proved that Lin Ming's skills in refining Fire Cleansing Pill had become more profound.

The three sets of Fire Cleansing Pill ingredients Pill Formation, which was quite satisfactory for Lin Ming at this stage. If he hadn't understood many things yesterday, the refining of both Fire Cleansing Pill ingredients today would probably have failed.

After tidying up, Lin Ming left the Alchemy Room and returned to his courtyard.
