Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill
Inside the Thousand Medicine Workshop.
Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian have already finished their tour.
Just as Duo Ma said, the medicinal herbs in this "Thousand Medicine Workshop" are indeed hard to find outside. I really don't know where they got such a large quantity of rare medicinal herbs.
Shaking his head in amazement, Xiao Yan glanced at the prices listed below the medicinal herbs and couldn't help but be speechless again. A high-grade "Wood Spirit Three-Needle Flower" was rare in the outside world, but it would only cost around 50,000 gold coins at most. However, here... the price had increased by almost three times.
"170,000 per plant... These guys might as well just rob them."
Xiao Yan shook his head. Although he was quite wealthy, he didn't want to be taken advantage of!
After a while, Xiao Yan, who had bought some herbs for Xiao Yi Xian, stood in front of a counter and pursed his lips.
After some investigation, he did find all the ingredients needed to refine a "Purple Spirit Recovery Pill." However, according to his calculations, if he were to buy all the ingredients, it would cost at least 870,000 gold coins.
It's a complete rip-off!
Eighty-seven hundred thousand gold coins is a considerable expense even for a Dou Huang expert.
But Xiao Yan still has more than two million gold coins. For Elder Hai's sake, he doesn't mind spending a little more money. Anyway, he can earn it back by refining some pills.
Thus, after Xiao Yan spent a great deal of money, he finally managed to obtain all the pills needed for the Restoration Purple Pill.
This loss of nearly half of his assets caused Xiao Yan considerable financial pain.
At this moment, Old Yao also spoke up to remind him:
"Don't forget, if you want to get your hands on that Fallen Heart Flame, you'll need to prepare a Sixth-Grade Pill called the Earth Spirit Pill. The required materials aren't many, just four: Earth Core Fire Ganoderma, Dragon Whisker Ice-Fire Fruit, Green Wood Immortal Vine, and... one Sixth Tier water-attribute Magical Core."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded helplessly, memorized the names of the medicinal herbs, and then began to select some herbs that he could currently use from the Thousand Medicine Workshop.
He wanted to refine some more sought-after pills to earn some money for use at the auction.
After spending 580,000 gold coins on a variety of medicinal herbs, Xiao Yan looked at his card balance of less than one million and began to feel anxious.
He really, really wants to make money!
Of course, anxiety is one thing, spending money is another.
After buying several rare medicinal herbs for Xiao Yi Xian, Xiao Yan led her out of the Thousand Medicine Workshop.
"I'm going to get into the medicinal herb business too, and I'll wipe out this Thousand Medicine Workshop completely!"
Looking back at the Thousand Medicine Workshop sign, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and cursed before walking into the street under Xiao Yi Xian's smiling gaze and returning to his inn room, which had already been booked.
In the quiet little room, Xiao Yan arranged the medicinal herbs he had previously purchased one by one on the table. Finally, he took out the white medicine cauldron, adjusted his state slightly, and began to refine medicine again.
Xiao Yi Xian sat to his side, protecting him and watching him refine medicine.
With a flick of his finger, a wisp of Cobalt Blue Flame emerged from his fingertip and was immediately flicked into the firebox of the cauldron. Instantly, the cobalt blue flame transformed into a raging fire, rising and burning within the cauldron.
Gazing at the rising Cobalt Blue Flame, Xiao Yan took a breath, his mind once again becoming calm and serene. His slender fingers, as if plucking flowers and leaves, swept across the table, tossing medicinal herbs in arcs into the cauldron, where they instantly turned to powder...
In the quiet room, Cobalt Blue Flame danced like sprites within the medicine cauldron, their light reflected on the walls, transforming into different shapes as they rose.
Five days have passed in the blink of an eye.
In these five days, Xiao Yan refined nearly ten kinds of Third-Grade- and Fourth-Grade Pill, each of which was rare but extremely popular on the market.
However, he still has eight portions of medicinal herbs that he hasn't used yet.
He originally intended to refine the Three-Vein Green Spirit Pill.
But when he was about to buy the medicinal herbs, he suddenly remembered—damn it! He didn't have the recipe for the Three-Vein Green Spirit Pill!
Fortunately, as expected of Eighth-Grade Alchemy Grandmaster, the Old Yao had an extremely rich collection of pill formulas.
Although there is no Three-Vein Green Spirit Pill, there is a similar pill with fewer side effects and a higher success rate.
Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill
This is also a Fourth-Grade Pill. Ordinary Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill can help Dou Master expert break through to the threshold of advancing to Da Dou Shi. If Da Dou Shi expert takes it, there is a very high chance that the user's level will be increased by one star, without any side effects.
The Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill comes in three grades, and each grade changes the color of the pill. If it can be completed in three stages, resulting in the pill displaying three different colors, then it is the highest grade Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill.
However, those below the Da Dou Shi cannot take the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill, as the powerful energy it contains will cause them to explode.
For Da Dou Shi, taking this pill can increase their strength by at least two or even three stars. The side effect is that there is too much energy, and the process will be very painful, but as long as one can endure the pain, there is no precedent for failure.
Of course, Old Yao didn't tell Xiao Yan that only he Feng Xian had taken this pill so far, which was too small a number. They were both tough men, and the pain was nothing to worry about, so there were no examples of failure.
Da Dou Shi only has one chance to take the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill. If they take it again, the effect will become extremely weak, at most it will have some effect on tempering the body, but that would be a waste.
Because of its body-tempering effect, many Third-Grade pills are actually better.
To upgrade the Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill to its highest grade, three different flames are required, and the transformation between the three flames must reach a state of perfection; otherwise, there is a very high chance of the furnace exploding.
Therefore, even among Fourth-Grade Pill, this Three-Turn Qi Gathering Pill is definitely not an easy pill to refine.
However, since Xiao Yan's cultivation has improved along the way, reaching the level of Nine-Star Dou Master, coupled with the surge in his soul power, he now has a considerable chance of refining even Fourth-Grade Pill.
Looking at the pile of medicinal herbs in front of him, Xiao Yan took a deep breath, waved his hand a few times, and then used his skillful strength to throw several herbs into the medicine cauldron. Instantly, cobalt blue flames surged up, enveloping the herbs and beginning a frenzied calcination and refining process.
Perhaps because he was tainted by spiritual substances, Xiao Yan's perception became clearer when refining medicine. After several days of practice, he had gained some experience in refining Fourth-Grade Pill and now even had a hint of composure.
This kind of temperament is usually only found in highly experienced alchemy masters. Considering that he is not even twelve years old, there is no doubt that he is an extraordinary genius.
If the Fa Ma master of the Alchemist Guild of the Jia Ma Empire were to see this, he would probably have to sigh:
"This kid's Yao Tian is actually better than mine!?"
