Chapter 75: Pill -Refining Entry

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Having understood the process of refining the basic recovery pill, Li Ming no longer hesitated and began refining the pills.

Pill refining was a rather basic task that a lot of foundation establishment cultivators got acquainted with. However, if they wanted to refine a pill successfully and for the pill that they refine to have a grade, they would need to spend time and energy studying it properly.

This was also why most foundation establishment cultivators did not bother about refining artifacts or pills at all.

This was because these things would seriously cost a cultivator a lot of time and energy.

In the end, it could delay their cultivation significantly.

He placed the herbs into the furnace one by one and controlled the flame to condense the herbs into essence.

He would then bring the essence out and put it aside.

He continued to do the same for the other medicinal herbs.

Merely the first step was already this complicated.

However, this was just the beginning.

After all the medicinal ingredients were refined, the next step was to fuse the extracted medicinal essences together.

Moreover, under the urging of a foundation establishment true fire, they would fuse, condense, be refined, and finally form into a pill.

Although Li Ming was already completely familiar with the operation of pill refining, he also understood that theoretical knowledge did not always translate to practical ability.

This was the first time that was actually refining a pill, and due to his high concentration, the pill he refine completely shattered during the first condensation!

The medicinal ingredients had just condensed and begun to form, but because the strength and control of the fire were not precise enough, all of his ingredients burned to ashes on the spot!

The golden crow true fire was truly much more powerful than ordinary foundation establishment true fires, and this meant that he really had to be a lot more careful and precise with his control during the refining process.

Therefore, during the entire refining process, Li Ming made sure to keep his focus up and carefully watch everything as best he could.

He did not dare to be careless at all.

Although the first attempt ended in failure, Li Ming obviously would not give up just because of that.

With his mind highly focused, he continuously controlled the golden crow true

fire. At the same time, he also had to pay attention to the condition of the

medicinal ingredients.

This multitasking caused Li Ming’s focus to grow even stronger.

In terms of spiritual qi, it surprisingly also began increasing involuntarily.

It was an obvious result.

With Li Ming highly focused, his spiritual qi absorption would also increase.

There were even some who would manage to temper their minds and temper their bodies as they refined items.

In the end, the long period of focus and precise control of his golden crow true fire forced Li Ming to be in a constantly tense state.

In fact, this was also helpful for his body cultivation.

However, at this moment, it was apparent that Li Ming was neither aware nor cared about this matter.

After failing his first try, Li Ming immediately got ready to start his second try right away.

The pill refining process was long and boring.

For the entire day, Li Ming was completely immersed in refining pills.

Although he did not succeed the first few times, Li Ming clearly found the right feeling and successfully managed to refine a pill.

However, Li Ming did not stop right then.

Instead, he continued to focus on refining.

The box of medicinal herbs beside him had already become empty.

On the side, there were numerous completed recovery pills!

In total, there were over 300 bottles of them!

Li Ming had also successfully obtained an entry related to pill refining after the over 300 rounds of refining pills!

[Blue Entry: Selective Admission]

[Effect: Success rate when refining pills is increased by 50%!]

Just this entry alone was enough to greatly boost Li Ming’s success rate in refining pills!

With the help of his other entries, Li Ming’s pill refinement skills had improved greatly.

In just one day, he had successfully refined pills over 300 times!

Even in the entire Eastern Province, the speed at which he learned and refined pills was probably unmatched!

After all, this was his first time refining pills!

“Hiss!”

“You’ve mastered pill refinement in such a short period of time.”

“Moreover, you actually managed to refine the most basic recovery pill to reach the fourth grade!”

“No wonder you can cultivate the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.”

The black stone sighed as it complimented Li Ming.

It had watched the entire process take place.

Although Li Ming had failed a few times in the beginning, that was completely within expectations.

Every foundation establishment cultivator would fail a few times in the beginning.

However, Li Ming’s speed at learning to refine pills was incredibly fast, the rate at which he improved was simply ungodly!

From refining pills at the first grade, he quickly managed to raise the quality of his refined pills to the fourth grade!

This speed of improvement was indeed unprecedented!

Pill refiners were a special profession that was separate from most cultivators. However, if one wanted to advance the quality of the pills that they refined from the first grade, they needed to continuously accumulate experience and increase their own strength at the same time.

However, this was generally a very complicated undertaking.

But for Li Ming, it was as if there were no such obstacles.

He experienced a meteoric rise!

He faced no obstructions!

He used up all his materials, and he successfully refined most of them into pills.

But Li Ming did not choose to stop there.

He felt like he was on a hot streak right now; he felt as if he was at his best state.

Naturally, he wanted to strike the iron while it was hot!

He decided to refine the marrow cleansing pill that he needed!

He already had the medicinal herbs for the pill at the ready.

Li Ming maintained his previous state of mind and he began refining in an orderly manner.

After extracting the essence of the medicinal ingredients one by one, he began to condense and refine them one after another.

Everything seemed to go smoothly.

With the experience he had accumulated earlier and the help of the newly-obtained entry, Li Ming could be said to have become a proper pill refiner!

As the medicinal ingredients were refined, they condensed one after another.

After refining over 300 bottles of pills earlier, Li Ming had become a lot more familiar with the process of condensing pills.

Even though the marrow cleansing pill was much more difficult than the recovery pill, with the help of his entry, everything still went extremely smoothly.

An hour later.

Within the cauldron, the essence of several medicinal herbs condensed under the urging of the golden crow true fire. They slowly transformed, and the medicinal power slowly fused under the urging of the golden crow true fire.

When it finally formed a complete medicinal pill, the spiritual energy it emitted actually caused the entire furnace to shake!

This scene shocked Li Ming, who had been maintaining a high level of concentration all this time!

He immediately stabilized his true fire. As the fluctuation increased, cracks began forming throughout the furnace! In the next moment, it exploded!

Boom!

A loud bang sounded!

In an instant, flames soared into the sky!

The exploding furnace instantly flew up!

The golden flames in the sky above the Martial Hall soared into the sky and instantly covered the entire sky!

The medicinal power of the pill was so strong that it instantly caused the furnace to shatter!

The grounds of the Martial Hall shook violently, causing the consecrators of the Consecration Hall to be shocked.

The seventh consecrator immediately set off and headed straight for the Martial Hall.

The Martial Hall was located in a remote area, and the closest place to it was the Consecration Hall.

Naturally, due to the extraordinary status of the Consecration Hall, few disciples dared to come here.

Therefore, the Consecration Hall was able to easily become aware of the movements at the Martial Hall.

In addition, Li Ming himself was not simple and had long been under the surveillance of the Consecration Hall.

Now that such a commotion had occurred, it naturally made them curious as to what had taken place.

At this moment, as the golden flames that filled the sky dissipated, Li Ming relied on his own control to finally preserve the marrow cleansing pill that he had refined during this explosion.

After all, this was the main purpose of this pill refinement.

With the marrow cleansing pill, he would be able to break the shackles of his physical body and would not have to worry about affecting his subsequent cultivation.

After all, it was a pill meant for body cultivators. The effect that this marrow cleansing pill had was a huge boon for body cultivators..
