Chapter 21: The Pure Emerge from the Furnace

After a short rest, Lin Jing continued his alchemy practice.

This time was even better than before, as he managed to produce a Superior Elixir Medicine and three Low Grade Elixir Medicines in a single furnace.

Moreover, his proficiency in alchemy had increased by 9 points.

Lin Jing realized that the higher the quality of the Elixir Medicine, the more proficiency points he would gain.

Then came the third furnace.

The fourth furnace.

The fifth furnace.

Throughout the night, Lin Jing refined five furnaces of elixir medicines and succeeded with two of them.

The success rate had indeed improved a lot.

Most importantly, the quality of the Elixir Medicines had greatly increased.

From these two successful furnaces, he obtained a total of eight Elixir Medicines, two being Superior, four Medium Grade, and two Low Grade Fasting Pills.

Lin Jing divided the produced Elixir Medicines into batches and placed them into porcelain bottles, preparing to sell them once he had accumulated a certain amount.

This was a good start.

The next day

Everything was as usual; after sending Luo Luo off, Ning Yue went to practice alchemy again.

This reminded him of a term from his previous life: “company livestock.”

These two words were especially fitting to describe the current situation.

He then wondered, if Ning Yue was “company livestock”, what would that make himself?

A nanny?

Or a househusband?

On reflection, he felt even the term “company livestock” might be better.

It wasn’t suitable to enter the System Space with Luo Luo around during the day.

So Lin Jing practiced alchemy in his own room.

By the afternoon, he had refined three furnaces, but the results were not very satisfactory.

Two of the furnaces were failures, and the last one was barely a success, producing only one Medium Grade and two Low Grade Fasting Pills.

It seemed that the success rate of the Alchemy Room was not just talk.

It was possibly due to the Pill Manual that Lin Jing discovered the wondrous use of the 10% increase in Divine Sense strength only during this alchemy session.

With that 10% increase in Divine Sense, Lin Jing felt a much stronger control over the Elixir Medicines during the alchemy process.

In the evening, after Ning Yue returned, the three of them sat around the table and ate dinner as usual.

“Fellow Daoist Ning, I heard from Elder Yu at Yuebaolou that a person’s cultivation and the strength of their Divine Sense have a significant impact on the outcome of alchemy, is that true?”

Lin Jing asked.

“That’s correct,” Ning Yue answered.

“For example, you currently only have a Qi Refinement Second Rank cultivation, and your Divine Sense is too weak, leading to insufficient control over the Elixir Medicines. At the same time, your cultivation is limited, and your control over the flames might not be very good.”

“And that will affect the final result of the alchemy.”

“If you break through to a Qi Refinement Third Rank or even mid Qi Refinement stage, it will naturally be different.”

“Have you ever experienced feeling very tired and unable to concentrate during alchemy?”

Ning Yue asked Lin Jing.

“Sometimes I do feel that way, but I usually force myself to stay focused until the alchemy is completed.”

“Is that not the correct approach?”

Lin Jing asked doubtfully.

“That’s not incorrect, but…”

“At that time, the quality of your Elixir Medicines begins to decline. You could have produced a furnace of Superior Elixir Medicines.”

“But, the moment your attention falters, the quality drops immediately, and sometimes you don’t even realize it yourself.”

“You might even think it’s a mistake somewhere and ponder over it for a long time, but actually, it’s because your cultivation is too low and your Divine Sense isn’t strong enough.”

“As soon as you reach the mid Qi Refinement stage, this won’t happen anymore when you refine First Rank Elixir Furnace Medicines.”

“But even at the mid Qi Refinement stage, you can’t continuously refine without breaks, as that could also lead to fatigue, affecting the Elixir Medicine’s quality.”

“Between every two alchemy sessions, you need to rest for a while. Only by doing so, will it be possible.”

“I am aware of that, Elder Yu once mentioned it,” Lin Jing said.

“`

“Hmm.”

“Next, aside from alchemy, you must not neglect your cultivation either. You also need to improve it.”

“I see you’ve been eating Medium Grade Spirit Rice every day, so you must have had some savings before, but even so, you can’t be too wasteful.”

“It’s still best to learn alchemy quickly. Once you’re good at alchemy, it can be very profitable. Then you won’t have to worry about eating Medium Grade Spirit Rice every day, even eating Superior Grade Spirit Rice every day will be no problem.”

Ning Yue instructed Lin Jing, looking very much like a senior.

Lin Jing felt somewhat embarrassed.

“Medium Grade Spirit Rice?”

“In a little while, when the Superior Grade Spirit Rice in the System Space is ripe, I’ll be eating Superior Grade Spirit Rice every day.”

“What then should I say?”

“Hmm, it seems I’ll need to find an excuse when the time comes.”

After finishing their meal, the two of them went back, and Lin Jing began his grand alchemy career.

For half a month like this, Lin Jing refined several furnaces every day, and gradually, his success rate in alchemy increased manyfold.

These past few days, Lin Jing had already produced three Supreme Elixirs, but he hadn’t managed to create a Pure Elixir.

Of course, it might also be because he hadn’t produced two Supreme Elixirs in the same furnace.

After all, the most basic condition for creating a Pure Elixir is to have two Supreme Elixirs in the same furnace.

Otherwise, even if the Alchemy Room had the attribute of a 10% chance for a Pure Elixir, without meeting the most basic condition, how could he produce a Pure Elixir?

A few days later, the materials for Fasting Pills he had bought were used up, and his alchemy skills were almost there.

Next, he planned to start refining other types of elixirs.

The first time he bought a Pill Furnace, Lin Jing also purchased materials for several other elixirs. Since his alchemy skills hadn’t been up to par before, he hadn’t used them.

This time, Lin Jing was prepared; it was time to start refining, especially the Energy Gathering Pills used to increase one’s cultivation. His own cultivation progress depended on them.

He entered the System Space and came to the Alchemy Room.

This time, as usual, he started the fire, opened the furnace…

For the first refinement, he put in the materials for an Energy Restoration Elixir.

He began the refinement process.

“Elixir refinement successful, Alchemy proficiency +15.”

The appearance of the system prompt made Lin Jing’s eyes light up.

“15 Alchemy proficiency points.”

“A Supreme quality elixir on the first attempt to refine an Energy Restoration Elixir?”

The Energy Restoration Elixir is for quickly restoring one’s Spiritual Power when it’s depleted, and in terms of price, it isn’t much different from Energy Gathering Pills, but much more expensive than Fasting Pills.

This Supreme Energy Restoration Elixir would typically fetch around 20 Lower Grade Spirit Stones on the market.

It was certainly not cheap.

Lin Jing opened the Pill Furnace and took out the elixirs inside.

In this furnace, he had refined one Supreme, two Superior, and two Medium Grade Energy Restoration Elixirs.

A Supreme Elixir provided +5 Alchemy proficiency points, while a Superior was +3, a Medium Grade +2, and a Low Grade only increased proficiency by one point.

As for the Pure Elixir, Lin Jing had not made one before, so he wasn’t sure.

The Elixir Furnace Medicine added up to exactly 15 Alchemy proficiency points.

“Next up, it’s time to refine Energy Gathering Pills,” Lin Jing murmured to himself.

After resting for a while, Lin Jing once again began preparations.

This time, he remained steady, without any hint of panic, not sparing a moment of excitement for having just produced a Supreme Elixir.

Such a mindset was perfect for alchemy.

Half an hour later.

The Alchemy Room was filled with swirling smoke and lingering elixir fragrance, which was different from before, not dissipating for a long time and gathering continuously inside the Alchemy Room.

Lin Jing, as if oblivious, focused intently, staring at the Pill Furnace, carefully controlling the temperature of the flame.

“Ding”

“System prompt: Congratulations, Host has refined a Pure Elixir and received the reward: 5 Harvest Points.”

“System prompt: As the Host has refined a Pure Elixir for the first time, receive a reward: 10 Harvest Points.”

“Elixir refinement successful, Alchemy proficiency +27.”
