I Told You to Refine Pills, and You Brought Over the Thirty-Three Heavens of Separation?!

At midnight, inside the Hall of Gods of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

"Hmm, I see."

Looking at the absurdly extravagant pill furnace before him, as well as the huge pile of pills beside it, Fang Mo wore a thoughtful expression. "...So this is what cultivators call pill refinement?"

Chen Shan had kept his word.

Though he was somewhat resentful, he had still taught Fang Mo the inheritance of pill refinement.

Honestly, pill refinement was more complicated and tedious than cultivation or spells. The main difficulties lay in the timing for adding various Spirit Grass ingredients, as well as controlling the heat.

According to Chen Shan, refining a batch of the most basic Qi Condensing Pills required roughly ten portions of ingredients, yielding two finished pills. If he was lucky, he could produce one extra pill. In other words, the loss rate was around seventy or eighty percent, and that yield was quite common throughout the cultivation world.

It was said that only the Thousand Refinements Ten Thousand Flowers Sect could keep its loss rate below fifty percent.

Others could put in ten portions of ingredients and at most get ten pills, but with Fang Mo, ten portions of ingredients tossed in...
