Chapter 345: The True Art of Alchemy


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


Hearing Xiao Qian’s words, Su Yi jumped down from the flying sword and landed steadily on the ground, bringing with him a gust of fresh wind.


Xiao Qian also put away the flying sword and slowly descended from the sky.


The two of them came to the front of the main hall together. Xiao Qian then walked in first and said to Su Yi, “Come in.”


After saying this, Su Yi followed him in.


The great hall was extremely spacious. There were some small porcelain bottles on the walls. They were probably used to store medicinal pills.


In the great hall, there was a huge alchemy furnace. It was different from the alchemy furnace that Su Yi had seen in the great desolate region.


The alchemy furnace in the great desolate region used earth fire to refine medicinal ingredients. However, Su Yi could not see any signs of flames here.


In fact, the entire hall was a little cold. Was this really used to refine pills?


At this moment, Xiao Qian spoke slowly, as if she was speaking to Su Yi, but also to himself.


“I have been in contact with medicinal ingredients since I was young. I started refining pills when I was ten years old. Until today, I have been refining pills for 50 years.”


When she said this, Su Yi was slightly surprised. He did not expect that this master of his, who looked like he was in his 30’s, was actually over 50 years old.


Of course, this was not the main point. As a cultivator’s age, there were very few restrictions.


Then, Xiao Qian asked again, “Su Yi, do you know what pill refinement is?”


He did not expect the other party to suddenly ask him a question, so he replied.


“Pill refinement is to condense and purify the medicinal ingredients according to a single recipe, and then refine them into medicinal pills.”


Hearing this, Xiao Qian nodded lightly. Then, he shook his head and turned around to look at Su Yi as he slowly said, “Pill refinement is not that simple. What you are talking about is only the most basic. It is far from being called an alchemist.”


“The so-called alchemist is to break the rules of pill refinement and fully purify the medicinal strength between the medicinal ingredients. Only by keeping the medicinal strength from flowing away can the pill be 100% completed.”


As he spoke, Xiao Qian had already arrived in front of the huge pill refinement furnace and sat down cross-legged.


Su Yi know what this master was doing. Could it be that he wanted to refine pills?


There was no earth fire here? How could he refine pills?


For a moment, Su Yi was somewhat confused. From what Xiao Qian said, his understanding of pills was only at the basic level.


As for his high rate of pill formation and the problem of high quality, it was all thanks to his Time Pill Alchemy Technique. If he did not have this Time Pill Alchemy Technique, he probably would not even know how to refine pills.


Just as Su Yi was in a daze, he saw Xiao Qian shout softly. “Fire!”


Xiao Qian waved his finger, and a wisp of flame rose. This wisp of flame was extremely weak, as if it was extinguished by a gust of wind. But as Xiao Qian swung it, this wisp of flame sank into the pill furnace.


Very quickly, in Su Yi’s eyes, the huge pill furnace gradually became hot, and waves of scorching heat assaulted his face.


He was greatly shocked. Just a wisp of flame was enough to ignite the pill furnace?


However, it was not over. The temperature of the pill furnace was about the same, so Xiao Qian opened his mouth and said, “Take a good look, see if there is any difference between your master and you refining pills.”


With that, Xiao Qian’s true essence opened the lid of the pill furnace, and then took out a set of medicinal ingredients. If Su Yi was not mistaken, it was precisely the foundation establishment realm breakthrough medicinal pill. These were the medicinal ingredients needed to refine the foundation establishment pill.


These medicinal ingredients were ordinary. They were completely ordinary. Even the demonic core that was used to refine the medicinal pill was at the early stage of the foundation establishment stage.


These medicinal ingredients were suspended in Xiao Qian’s hand. He appeared to be extremely skilled as he placed these medicinal ingredients into the pill furnace in an orderly manner.


After which, Xiao Qian began to form a seal as though he was controlling something.


The temperature of the pill furnace was high and low. After fifteen minutes, Xiao Qian raised his hand and a medicinal pill with Dao aura landed in his hand.


Shockingly, this foundation establishment pill of a Dao-grade.


“This…”


At this moment, Su Yi was a little speechless. He had too many questions to ask. Why was Xiao Qian’s pill refinement speed so fast? Moreover, he did not seem to be surprised at all when he refined a Dao-grade medicinal pill.


Could this be the strength of an alchemy grandmaster?


At this moment, he even had a trace of doubt about his Time Pill Alchemy Technique. Could it be that Xiao Qian had better alchemy skills?


This was naturally impossible.


When Xiao Qian saw Su Yi’s stunned look, he laughed lightly and said.


“How is it? Has It completely overturned your three views on alchemy?”


Su Yi nodded numbly, not knowing what to say.


After that, Xiao Qian looked at him with a smile on his face and said, “Previously, you were able to refine a medicinal pill that attracted the lightning tribulation. You must have borrowed the effects of a special medicinal ingredient.”


“Medicinal ingredients have been deposited for a thousand years. They contain a large amount of medicinal strength. If it wasn’t for the restrictions of the laws of Heaven and earth, they would definitely become celestial-grade. However, you were only able to refine a Dao-grade one mark. Do you know why?”


Hearing Xiao Qian’s words, he fell into deep thought as he pondered over the question that Xiao Qian had asked earlier.


Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something as his eyes suddenly widened. He then looked at Xiao Qian and said, “It’s because the medicinal strength has been drained!”


Hearing this, the corners of Xiao Qian’s mouth curled up. He threw the medicinal pill in his hand to Su Yi and slowly said, “This child is worth teaching. That’s right, it’s because the medicinal strength has been drained.”


“I hope Master can answer!”


At this moment, he quickly bowed to Xiao Qian. His gaze was burning, as if he was thirsty for knowledge.


When Xiao Qian saw this, he placed his hands behind her back. His gaze looked at the pill furnace that was still warm as he said slowly.


“The speed of pill refinement is related to the speed at which the medicinal ingredients are refined and purified.”


“The quality of pill refinement is related to the medicinal ingredients maintaining their medicinal properties during the process of refining.”


“The rate of pill refinement lies in the control of the temperature during the pill refinement process.”


“These three types of pills do not lie in the quality of the pill furnace, but in the way you refine pills. For example, when you refine medicinal ingredients, if the firepower is too low and the medicinal ingredients are too slow in the refinement process, the medicinal properties of the medicinal ingredients will be burned by the pill fire.”


“However, if the firepower is too high, the medicinal ingredients will be charred, and a portion of the medicinal ingredients will be destroyed.”


“This level is not something that earth fire can control. This is also something that those low-quality alchemists who call themselves alchemists can only refine mid to high-grade medicinal pills.”


“Earth fire does not belong to them, so they can not control and adjust it as they wish.”


Speaking up to this point, another flame appeared on Xiao Qian’s fingertip.


He came in front of Su Yi and looked at this flame. Su Yi could feel the heat within it, but there was no temperature at all when it burned on the other party’s fingertip.


Immediately after, Xiao Qian continued to speak.


“This is pill fire, condensed from one’s own body. However, not everyone can condense pill fire. Without fire attribute true essence, I’m afraid one would not be able to condense pill fire for the rest of their lives.”


“Even if there is fire attribute true essence, if the compatibility is too poor, the pill fire that is condensed would be extremely weak, even inferior to Earth fire.”


“Therefore, if you want to learn my pill refining techniques, first condense the pill fire.”


As she said this, Xiao Qian pointed at his forehead, transmitting the key tips on how to condense the pill fire into his mind.
