Chapter 142: Success in One Shot

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei’s main purpose for coming to the Alchemist Alliance today was only to take the Tier 7 alchemist examination. As for refining the half Pill Veins Flying Ascent Pill, it was completely caused by his recent muscle memory.

If the cost of the Flying Ascent Pill remained the same, Chen Fei would be able to refine a stronger pill.

Yes, Chen Fei was so confident.

Recently, in order to study how to stimulate the medicinal properties of the medicinal herbs, Chen Fei had researched many methods. Unfortunately, those low-aged medicinal herbs had limited capacity. No matter how Chen Fei stimulated them, there was only a small amount.

If he went a little too far, he would directly blow up his furnace, making Chen Fei really not know how to continue.

But now that he was going to use the original ingredients of the Flying Ascent Pill, many of the problems were solved.

The ingredients of the Flying Ascent Pill were all of high age, so they naturally carried a lot of medicinal properties. If Chen Fei stimulated them to their limits, their endurance would be much stronger. Moreover, Chen Fei could also add some other ingredients and fuse them together to achieve an even stronger medicinal property.

Chen Fei didn’t dare to say anything else, but he was still a little confident that he could concoct a Flying Ascent Pill with full pill veins.

This was the result of Chen Fei’s recent painstaking research. Of course, the consummate level of the Flying Ascent Pill and the Fasting Pill were both essential conditions.

They were all in the same nine-year compulsory education, and everyone was learning formulas and theories. However, there were some questions that others could know the answer to at a glance, but you couldn’t solve them no matter what.

Many people also had the pill formulas for the Flying Ascent Pili and Fasting Pill, but they just couldn’t fuse them as closely as Chen Fei.

“First, let’s confirm your Tier 7 alchemist position.”

Tu Jilin said with a smile as he looked up at Chen Fei after admiring the half-veined Flying Ascent Pill.

“Sorry to trouble Senior Tu.” Chen Fei cupped his hands.

Tu Jilin waved his hand, turned around, and walked out of the alchemy room. Qin Jinglan only dared to step forward at this moment. She looked at Chen Fei with admiration. He casually refined a Flying Ascent Pill with Pill Veins. Many pill refiners could not reach this level in their entire lives.

They went to the counter to verify the medicinal pill. The Flying Ascent Pill with Pill Veins caused a slight commotion at the counter.

All the deacons in the alliance knew what it meant for a pill to have Pill Veins, and it was a pill like the Flying Ascent Pill.

The speed of the verification was very fast. The results of the Tier 7 alchemist test were already out. A new jade pendant was handed to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei picked up the jade pendant and looked at the slightly more complicated Pill Veins on it. His face could not help but reveal a smile.

“Do you want to write down the pill formula and submit the mission?”

Tu Jilin turned to look at Chen Fei and said, “When the time comes, if you have a greater advantage when compared to Shi Changji’s pill formula, perhaps the person who completes this mission will be you.”

From Tu Jilin’s observation, Chen Fei used the original ingredients of the Flying Ascent Pill. The only difference was in the refining method.

As for Shi Changji, he had changed some of the ingredients, but the overall cost remained the same. There were also differences in the pill refining techniques. In the end, the other pill refiners would have to determine who was better, and Shi Changji was unable to be completely certain.

“I’ll go back and think about it. I’ll come back in a few days.”

Chen Fei thought for a moment and shook his head. Now that there was not much advantage in the pill formula, it was better not to write it down. He would ponder over it for the next few days and get a mature version.

“Alright, I’ll wait for your good news.” Tu Jilin looked at Chen Fei’s confident face, and his eyes could not help but light up. He felt that in a few days, Chen Fei might really give him another surprise.

“Young Master, is there anything else I can do for you?” Qin Jinglan said softly from the side.

“I need to exchange for some medicinal ingredients.” Chen Fei looked at Qin Jinglan and said with a smile.

The medicinal herbs in the alliance had all gone through a strict selection process. Although they had to be exchanged with contribution points, the quality and age of the herbs were guaranteed. It was even more guaranteed than the shops outside.

An hour later, Chen Fei left the Alchemist Alliance and returned to the hot spring inn to ponder over the pill formula. Because he already had an idea, Chen Fei estimated that the new pill formula this time would not take too long.

The eastern city of Immortal Cloud City was the most prosperous area in the city. At this moment, a figure was running into the inner courtyard in a panic.

“Young Master, this is bad. Old Man Li just sent someone to tell us that someone from the alliance mission also refined a half-Pill Veins Flying Ascent Pill.”

The servant hurriedly ran to Shi Changji and reported anxiously.

Shi Changji was fiddling with his plants when he heard the servant’s words. His right hand involuntarily paused, and he plucked a blooming flower.

“Have you found out where he came from?” Shi Changji casually threw the flowers in his hand into the parterre, turned around and sat down in front of the stone table.

“Old Man Li said that the person’s name is Chen Fei, and he came to take the Tier 7 alchemist examination today. He concocted a half-veined Flying Ascent Pill on the spot and was highly praised by Tu Jilin,” the servant said in a low voice.

“That Chen Fei, did he hand over the pill formula?”

Shi Changji picked up the teacup and gently blew on the tea leaves before taking a sip.

“No, he hasn’t.” The servant thought for a moment and shook his head.

Shi Changji’s brows furrowed slightly as he put down the teacup in his hand. If Chen Fei handed over the pill formula on the spot, then it was nothing more than a competition on the spot.

Shi Changji’s pill formula was reported first, so he naturally had a certain advantage.

But now, Chen Fei actually did not hand over the pill formula. He clearly felt that he could research a better pill formula to complete this mission. Otherwise, he would not have the confidence to hand over the pill formula.

Shi Changji stood up and walked a few steps in the courtyard, feeling slightly irritated.

“Did Old Man Li say anything else?” Shi Changji raised his head and looked at the servants.

Old Man Li said that everyone in the Alliance is watching this mission, and he can’t do anything. He asked Young Master if he had a better pill formula to prepare in case of emergency,” the servant said in a low voice.

Shi Changji’s frown deepened. Clearly, the others also felt that Chen Fei would have a better pill formula when he went to the Alliance.

If Shi Changji didn’t have any other tricks up his sleeve, then the probability of this mission failing was very high.

“You may leave.”

Shi Changji waved his hand. Seeing that the servant had left, Shi Changji turned around and walked towards another courtyard.

“What is it?”

Before Shi Changji could even knock on the door, a hoarse voice rang out from within the room. It sounded like a finger scraping against metal, causing one to frown.

“Something has happened in the Alchemist Alliance mission. Someone has refined a Flying Ascension Pill with the same half Pill Veins…” Shi Changji carefully explained the situation.

“Oh?”

The door opened, and a woman walked out. The woman had an enchanting figure and a beautiful face, but a hideous scar extended from the corner of her eye to the corner of her mouth, completely destroying this beauty.

“Senior Sister, what should we do? A half-veined Flying Ascent Pill is already my limit.”

Shi Changji looked at Ou Yunlian, his eyes not daring to reveal anything unusual. Because Ou Yunlian hated how others looked at her with pity the most.

Because of this gaze, Ou Yunlian had already lost count of how many pairs of eyes she had gouged out.

“What do you think?” Ou Yunlian asked Shi Changji.

“The best way to deal with such a person is to make him disappear,” Shi Changji said viciously.

Ou Yunlian laughed softly and shook her head, “At this time, if that alchemist dies, whoever benefits will be the biggest suspect. This kind of method is somewhat unwise, and the people of the Alchemist Alliance will definitely be unhappy with you.”

“Then what should we do?” Shi Changji was confused.

“There’s no hurry. I’ll send someone to test him out. If there’s a chance, we’ll see if we can get a new pill formula from him.”

Ou Yunlian revealed a smile on her face, like a venomous snake in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

In the hot spring inn, on top of a ball of flame, the pill furnace was trembling slightly. Chen Fei’s hands were moving, and his inner strength was constantly adjusting the conflict between the medicinal properties in the pill furnace.

The medicinal fragrance that was originally slightly pervading, as the refinement continued, the medicinal fragrance instead converged, and in the end, it even became inaudible.

Chen Fei’s expression remained unchanged as he carefully adjusted every change in the medicinal properties. The pill was close to completion, but the further he went, the higher the possibility of the furnace exploding.

“Bang!”

After a full quarter of an hour, with a muffled sound, the lid of the pill furnace was opened by Chen Fei. In the billowing green smoke, the pills in the pill furnace were carefully taken out by Chen Fei and placed on a porcelain plate at the side.

Three pills were formed, and each pill had a complete pill pattern.

Chen Fei couldn’t help but reveal a smile. After returning, Chen Fei only spent less than six hours figuring out a new pill formula. After testing it out, he immediately succeeded.

It could only be said that Chen Fei had accumulated a lot of experience from experimenting with the pill formula in the past ten days. Now that he had changed his direction, he had broken through his original bottleneck in an instant.

He had accumulated a lot!

Chen Fei picked up a medicinal pill and observed it for a while before swallowing it.

As if he had swallowed a small fireball, the scorching medicinal power instantly rushed toward Chen Fei’s limbs and eight meridians. Chen Fei’s expression changed slightly. If it was an ordinary Marrow Tempering realm cultivator, they might not be able to withstand this medicinal strength.

However, for Chen Fei, who had a small success with the Suprressing Dragon Elephant, this medicinal power was unable to shake Chen Fei’s body in the slightest. The force in his body moved, tearing apart the medicinal power of the Flying Ascent Pill and then refining it into his body.

After about two hours, Chen Fei opened his eyes and let out a breath of turbid air.

“Adding one more Pill Vein, the medicinal strength has increased by more than forty percent. As long as you can withstand the impact of the medicinal strength, it will be easier for your body to absorb it, and there will be almost no impurities.” Chen Fei looked at the other Flying Ascent Pills on the plate.

Taking pills to cultivate would actually accumulate some impurities in the body. This kind of impurity could be refined over time.

However, if one consumed a medicinal pill for many years, it might cause impurities to accumulate. It would also become more difficult to refine it in the future.

At the same time, the problem of medicinal resistance would appear. At that time, the effect of each medicinal pill would gradually decrease.

Chen Fei consumed a lot of medicinal pills. As time passed, he naturally developed a resistance to the medicinal properties.

But fortunately, Chen Fei was consuming pills that he refined himself, and pills refined using the technique of the consummate level, and the impurities were already considered to be reduced to the minimum.

Now that the Suppressing Dragon Elephant was in control of itself, the problem of the impurities in the medicinal pills had been further reduced. It would not be able to affect Chen Fei in the short term.

This kind of Flying Ascent Pill with Pill Veins not only had strong medicinal effects, but it also had few impurities. To the vast majority of practitioners in the Visceral Tempering realm, it was an excellent medicinal pill choice.

After keeping the other two pills, Chen Fei decided to send the pill formula to the Alchemist Alliance the next day so that he could complete this mission as soon as possible..
