An alchemist—and a highly accomplished one at that.
The crowd was shaken.
In an instant, many eyes lit up. Though he had only refined the lowest-grade first-rank pills, no one believed Li Su was capable of refining first-rank pills alone.
He had added so much mud to the pills and still refined three hundred middle-grade first-rank pills. What kind of concept was that?
And those standing nearby had heard it clearly: these middle-grade pills contained no pill toxicity.
What did that mean?
It meant that the pills Li Su refined were, at the very least, high-grade first-rank pills.
High-grade first-rank pills—what did that signify? It meant they could be used throughout the entire Foundation Establishment realm.
As everyone knew, the higher a pill's grade, the less pill toxicity it contained, and the fewer restrictions there were on consuming it.
Though the Mythical Realm's spiritual energy was extremely dense, that did not mean one could absorb it quickly. It was a simple principle. After all, one's realm was what it was; no matter how heaven-shaking one's comprehension might be, it could not change the fact that one's own capacity was so limited.
Pills, on the other hand, were different. Once refined, they were more readily absorbed by the human body, and could be absorbed far faster.
For someone in the early Foundation Establishment stage, low-grade pills were much faster than directly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth—roughly three times as effective.
Middle-grade pills contained fewer impurities, naturally speeding up cultivation even further while also meaning one could consume more of them.
With high-grade pills, if one could ensure one pill a day, Foundation Establishment could be completed in at most a year—crossing the early, middle, and late stages to reach great perfection directly. At such a speed, let alone
