[Fixed Affix: Luck (Blue): Luck +50%, chance to snag a lucky break, chance to avoid fatal damage]

Everything tastes delicious?

No? What is this?

Yu Huai was fine after reading the first two entries, but when he saw the word "mouthful," he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Fortunately, the first two entries were relatively normal.

Now that he has saved up spirit stones for a long time, he should be able to afford the pill formula and the pill furnace.

A typical first-grade low-level alchemy furnace is priced at around 18 to 25 spirit stones. Alchemy recipes are more expensive; for example, the recipe for the Qi Gathering Pill, which is beneficial to cultivation, should cost around 50 spirit stones.

It will cost a total of 60 to 80 spirit stones.

This doesn't even include the spiritual herbs needed for alchemy.

It's clear that alchemy is incredibly expensive.

For independent cultivators, entering the basics is as difficult as reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

Fortunately, he has a cheat code.

With the addition of several dozen days of accumulation, he now had enough spirit stones.

Let's go to the market to buy materials first thing this morning!

Taking advantage of this entry on "Creating Pills," I'll try refining a low-grade first-tier pill.

He can now refine non-ranking pills with ease, but it remains to be seen how he will excel at refining ranking pills.

He may not have the talent for drawing talismans, but he might have some talent for alchemy.

Yu Huai pondered this in his heart, and under the moonlight and braving the cold wind, he continued to set up the toon tree stakes.

With each breath.

He emanated warmth, dispelling the chill.

On the 21st day, he must succeed!

Before you know it, it's morning.

West Street, Lingyaozhai.

Yu Huai, wearing a mask made of maple leaves, walked out of it with a pained expression and smacked his lips.

The prescription is really expensive.

The pill formula he bought was called the Lesser Rejuvenation Pill, a low-grade first-level pill belonging to the wood element. It was a healing pill that could quickly heal both internal and external injuries and replenish spiritual energy.

This pill is not the kind that helps improve cultivation; the normal market price for the formula is around 40 spirit stones.

However, it may be due to the influence of the Jiexiu.

This elixir formula actually sold for 50 spirit stones to Yu Huai.

In addition, there are several main ingredients and various auxiliary ingredients required to refine this pill, such as the Resurrection Grass, Crimson Blood Flower, and Dew-Condensing Grass.

He spent over a hundred spirit stones on this trip.

All the spirit stones I had painstakingly saved up were suddenly gone.

And that doesn't even include the alchemy furnace!

Fortunately, he still had a few mid-grade withered wood qi-restoring talismans, enough to exchange for a low-grade first-tier alchemy furnace.

After going around in circles.

Yu Huai stepped into a shop called Bailianfang.

This workshop specializes in the production and sale of religious artifacts.

The alchemy furnace is also a ritual implement, so it must be purchased here.

"What does this fellow Daoist require?"

A burly, shirtless man saw Yu Huai enter, picked up a large sledgehammer, and said expressionlessly.

"I need a low-grade, first-tier alchemy furnace. What kind of furnace can I get in exchange for these talismans?"

Yu Huai took out several withered wood recovery talismans from his pocket and handed them to the big man.

hum.

The burly man took it, examined it, glanced at Yu Huai, patted his storage bag, took out a small brown alchemy furnace, held it in his palm, and said:

"This furnace is forged from black iron, red copper, and blue-patterned pottery. It is engraved with runes of various sizes inside. It can be enlarged by inputting spiritual power. It is also a superior-grade low-grade furnace. Its market price is 36 spirit stones, which is just enough to offset the cost of your talismans today."

"Are you satisfied, fellow Daoist?"

"Can."

Yu Huai nodded, took the alchemy furnace, glanced at it a few times, tried to make it bigger and smaller, and was very satisfied before leaving the shop.

I wandered around the unlicensed repair stalls again.

Yu Huai suddenly noticed that the place was much quieter.

They only sell low-grade talismans, pills, or spiritual herbs.

I took a short walk around.

Without any sudden impulse, and knowing there was nothing he could get his hands on, he slipped into an alley, changed his appearance, suppressed his cultivation, used the Green Bamboo Step, and left the place.

Where did that person go?

"I clearly saw him sneak into this place, so where did he go?"

"Damn it, he must have had at least a hundred spirit stones on him, and we just let him get away like that. What use are you then?"

……

Yu Huai did not begin refining pills upon his return.

Instead, he took out the "Introduction to Alchemy" that he had obtained from Old Wang again and began to read it carefully.

I finished reading the book.

He then looked at the prescription for the Lesser Rejuvenating Elixir.

A short while later, it had all passed.

Yu Huai already understood the use of the alchemy furnace, including when to add medicine, materials, and control the fire during alchemy.

Partial room.

Yu Huai flipped his hand and took out the brown alchemy furnace. With a surge of spiritual power, it suddenly grew larger and stood in front of him, more than ten feet tall.

Yu Huai sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, closed his eyes to calm his mind, and gradually calmed his heart.

Thus, half an hour passed before they began refining the pills.

Take out the medicinal materials and place them in front of you.

He mobilized his own spiritual power to ignite the core of the alchemy furnace.

Having refined the Micro Qi Pill many times, he had become familiar with controlling the fire, and even after changing the pill furnace, he still handled it very well.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed.

Once the temperature in the furnace was even, he added the main materials, and then the auxiliary materials.

With the foundation of refining non-ranking pills, coupled with the initial explanation of the book, Yu Huai's first attempt at pill refining was completely orderly.

However, alchemy relies heavily on spiritual consciousness.

He still failed at the step of condensing liquid into pills.

More than a dozen spirit stones were gone in an instant.

Yu Huai was a little stunned, but not too discouraged.

He had already failed many times when drawing talismans before, but he failed again when he reached the stage of condensing the core.

He has already surpassed many cultivators.

He can be described as talented.

If he had divine sense to assist him, he should be able to complete the pill in one batch. However, it is extremely difficult for Qi Refining cultivators to cultivate divine sense.

With a sigh, Yu Huai closed his eyes again and began cultivating the Azure Cloud Technique.

Another incense stick's time has passed.

Yu Huai calmed himself down again, glanced at the remaining materials, and estimated that he could probably refine it three more times.

No time was wasted.

He began training again.

In the blink of an eye, night had fallen.

Control the fire, add the medicine, extinguish the fire, and condense the elixir.

The firelight cast a long shadow of Yu Huai as he stared intently at the alchemy furnace, having reached the final step.

Not long after.

Become!

Yu Huai opened the furnace and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a small, dull pill inside, slightly cracked and uneven in size.

Because of the "Removal of Pill" attribute, even though this Lesser Rejuvenating Pill looks like this, it can still be taken out normally and won't melt upon contact.

However, its medicinal properties are limited, and it can no longer perform its healing function.

Although the quality and the number of pills produced are not very good.

But at least he succeeded, which can be considered as taking the first step.

Yu Huai was not affected by the quality of the pill; on the contrary, he was very satisfied. He held the pill in his palm and nodded.

The elixir can be made in three furnaces.

He does have some talent, after all.

Yu Huai did not feel tired from refining elixirs.

At this moment, he was looking at the last remaining elixir with great enthusiasm.

I glanced at the time; there was still some time before the next entry refresh.

Now that the "Creating Elixir" entry is still available, let's refine another elixir.

We should focus on improving the quality first, and then increase the number of pills produced later.

With these thoughts in mind, Yu Huai put away the pills in his palm, took some time to calm his mind, and then began refining pills again.
