Since practicing the " Dark Nether Pill Heart Instruction Technique," Chen Shuangbai's quality and success rate in refining pills have greatly improved.
When refining the fifth batch of Azure Flower Pill, the pills were indeed successfully produced.
A total of eight pills were produced.
Five genuine pieces, three premium pieces.
Chen Shuangbai picked up a genuine Azure Flower Pill, put it in his mouth, and activated the " Moon-Worshipping Clear Illumination Method " within his body, instantly digesting the medicinal power of the pill.
"Hmm, the medicine is working well."
Chen Shuangbai then swallowed another high-quality Azure Flower Pill, and sure enough, he could feel that the medicinal power was much stronger, allowing his cultivation to take a small step forward.
"The premium product is indeed more effective than the genuine one."
With the aid of the Azure Flower Pill, Chen Shuangbai's cultivation gained further assistance, and he devoted himself even more diligently to the art of alchemy.
After Zhuang Wen had roughly figured out how to refine the Azure Flower Pill, he brought over more medicinal herbs.
Chen Shuangbai then began to study the Jade Cliff Pill.
The refining process of Jade Cliff Pill is more complicated than that of Azure Flower Pill, but it is nothing compared to Chen Shuangbai's " Dark Nether Pill Heart Instruction ".
After wasting two batches of medicinal herbs, the third batch was finally started.
There are seven pieces in total: five genuine pieces, one fine piece, and even one rare piece.
Looking at the seven pills, Chen Shuangbai had even more thoughts running through her mind.
"Since the Jade Spring Water Method Pill Refining Technique can be evolved into the Dark Nether Pill Heart Instruction, then I'll try to see if I can also evolve the Jade Spring Sect's secret alchemy technique, [ Fair Hands Divide the Stars ], into an even stronger alchemy technique?"
Filled with excitement, Chen Shuangbai tried to have Dao Fruit deduce this secret technique that could increase the success rate of pill formation.
However, the result was like a bucket of cold water, splashed all over him.
Chen Shuangbai was not discouraged. Recalling the process of how she obtained this alchemy secret technique, she remembered that Yi Chongyue had once said that this alchemy secret technique was only one of the alchemy secret techniques of the Jade Dew Hall.
"So... it must be because it's incomplete?"
Chen Shuangbai felt that after returning to the mountains, he should appropriately demonstrate his potential in alchemy so that the senior cultivators of the Jade Dew Hall could see it and plan for the remaining alchemy techniques.
As the saying goes, "Learn one thing and understand many others."
With the excellent " Jade Spring Water Method Pill Refining Technique " as a precedent, Chen Shuangbai thought of the other Cultivation Method and Law Technique he practiced.
Besides the " Moon-Worshipping Clear Illumination Method, which is his main cultivation Cultivation Method, Chen Shuangbai also cultivates a Yin Thunder Method " Midnight Month Cold Light Yin Thunder ", an enhancement Cultivation Method called " Water and Wood Pure Splendor Incantation ", a sword technique called " Spring Rain and Flowering Wood Sword Instruction ", as well as three Law Technique called " Cold Spring Guidance ", " Spirit-Appraising Pupil " and " Azure Billows Layered Waves Instruction ".
The key to magic is quality, not quantity; Chen Shuangbai understood this Law Technique long ago.
Therefore, during his years at the mountain gate, he focused on cultivation and did not learn many Law Technique.
Chen Shuangbai wondered if he could also try to have [ Dao Fruit ] deduce the " Spring Rain and Flowering Wood Sword Instruction " and evolve it into a brand new sword technique that best suited his Dao Path.
The reason for choosing the " Spring Rain and Flowering Wood Sword Instruction " is that this sword technique is Chen Shuangbai's main means of attack now. He wields two Law Sword, crisscrossing and soaring up and down, which is quite impressive.
However, this was a choice that had to be made, because the energy contained in the [ Great Yin Dao Fruit ] was now limited, so only one of the [ Water and Wood Pure Splendor Incantation ] and [ Spring Rain and Flowering Wood Sword Instruction ] could be chosen for deduction.
Chen Shuangbai sighed softly, seemingly talking to herself, "After returning to the mountains, I'll need to carefully plan for more rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures containing the power of moonlight."
Having made her decision, Chen Shuangbai decided not to delay any longer.
That night, the sky was clear and the moon shone brightly.
Chen Shuangbai submerged her consciousness into her sea of awareness, gathering all distracting thoughts, and offered a sincere prayer:
[I humbly request the Grand Yin to develop a sword technique based on the " Spring Rain and Flowering Wood Sword Instruction " that aligns with my Dao Path!]
Buzz!
After a soft chime, the [ Great Yin Dao Fruit ] in Chen Shuangbai's sea of consciousness shone brightly, its silvery light spreading across the ground, resembling a frost palace in the moon.
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
This day.
Chen Shuangbai sat Listening to the Waves Pavilion, with a blue-robed cultivator kneeling below him, wearing a jade pendant with the character "Fan" on it.
It was someone from the Fan Household of Jing Valley who came to collect the elixir refined by Chen Shuangbai, as agreed.
Chen Shuangbai nodded slightly, and Zhuang Wen, who was standing to the side, handed over a Storage Bag. The latter probed into it with his spiritual sense, and his face lit up with even more joy.
Seeing his appearance, Chen Shuangbai couldn't help but tease him.
"Shouldn't you examine it?"
"If there are any impure or damaged pills among them, wouldn't that ruin the reputation of the Fan Household of Jing Valley!"
The blue-robed cultivator Fan Qi, couldn't suppress his smile as he bowed to Chen Shuangbai, who was sitting in the grand chair, and said, "My lord, what are you saying?"
"My Fan Household has been cooperating with you for several years now, and every time we present you with pills, both in appearance and quality, they are top-notch!"
"Anyone who dares to question the lord is going against the Fan Household!"
These words sounded nice, and Chen Shuangbai was pleased to hear them.
After all, when people help each other in a decorated sedan chair, who doesn't like to hear nice things?
What Fan Qi said is true.
For the past two years, Chen Shuangbai has been supplying the Fan Household of Jing Valley with Jade Spring Five Pills as agreed. After guarding the area for two years, he began supplying Azure Flower Pill and Jade Cliff Pill.
These two types of pills perfectly targeted the weaknesses of Late Qi Refining Stage cultivators in the major sects of the Jing Kingdom, especially those in the Jade Spring Sect and the Empty Sword Sect Late Qi Refining Stage, who purchased these two types of pills the most.
Although Chen Shuangbai was afraid of appearing too monstrous, and intentionally controlled the quantity and quality of the two types of pills that flowed out, it still allowed the Fan Household of Jing Valley to make a fortune.
Sure enough, Fan Qi, a cultivator from the Fan Household, couldn't help but smile the moment he saw Chen Shuangbai, this wealthy man.
You should know that he even competed fiercely with many members of his clan for this job, just to secure the opportunity to contact Alchemist Chen.
The Fan Household now refers to him as Alchemist Chen.
However, compared to the pills from Alchemist Chen, Fan Qi was even more surprised by Chen Shuangbai's talent in cultivation!
He glanced at Chen Shuangbai out of the corner of his eye.
He remembered it clearly-
When he first came to Wind Howling County to meet Alchemist Chen, his cultivation level should have been at the Qi Refining Fifth Layer.
In less than two years, he has advanced to the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining!
It is steadily improving at a rate of one floor per year...
This might not sound shocking... but you have to understand that a cultivator's progress is fast in the early stages, slow in the later stages, and in the very late stages, it requires painstaking effort to improve little by little!
Even the cultivators who joined the Jade Spring Sect through the Fan Household of Jing Valley did not reach this level.
Only those geniuses with top-tier aptitude...
wrong!
It can't be a genius with top-tier aptitude... The news from within the sect is that this person's Spirit Root was tested as average (B-grade) upon entering the sect, so... could it be some kind of hidden physique suitable for cultivating water-based techniques?
Neither of these is something he, a cultivator specializing in external martial arts, can comment on!
Fan Qi could only keep this in mind and tell his clan about it when he returned home, so that the clan could pass on the message to the Fan Household cultivators in the sect and tell them to maintain a good relationship with this Alchemist Chen.
