Chapter 167: Chapter 126, Alchemy Level Three_2

Translator: 549690339

Ever since he was assigned to manage the pill quotas for the Second-Grade Alchemists, he had received high-quality pills just a few times.

What is a high-quality pill?

A high-quality pill does not simply have a pill pattern.

Regular pills, during the process of refinement, may still contain impurities which are not completely removed, resulting in a minor amount of remaining impurities.

When a Martial Artist ingests such a pill, not only is the speed of refining it slow, but the body can also accumulate toxicity from the pill. free(w)ebnovel.com

However, a high-quality pill has almost all its impurities refined away. It’s not only easier for Martial Artists to refine, but its toxicity is also relatively less, hence it doesn’t easily increase a Martial Artist’s resistance to medicine.

Among Second-Grade Alchemists, there are those who can refine high-quality Qi Combining Pills as well as other Second-Grade pills.

However, like Lu Yun, there are very few who can submit such a large number of them at once.

Moreover, some Second-Grade Alchemists, after creating high-quality pills, don’t submit them but directly consume them instead.

Especially the Meridian Pills which could improve cultivation, nearly all Alchemists will consume them in the Alchemy Room.

After inspecting the last bottle of Qi Combining Pills, Steward Feng was completely numb and his facial expression had become stiff.

Steward Feng took out a register, found the page related to Lu Yun, and began to record.

“This month, Alchemist Lu collected fifty sets of Qi Combining Pill materials, should have submitted twenty bottles of Qi Combining Pills, but he actually submitted forty-three. Among them, seven bottles were high-quality Qi Combining Pills, thus he should earn four hundred and forty-four pill merits this month.”

Seeing all of this, Lu Yun squinted his eyes.

“Steward Feng, can you explain what these pill merits are?”

Having recorded the information, Steward Feng closed the record book. He smiled slightly and explained, “The Alchemy Guild doesn’t expect alchemists to work for nothing. That would mean that no one would want to join the guild, that’s why a pill merit system was fashioned.”

“With pill merits, Alchemists can exchange them within the Alchemist Guild for various pill recipes and Alchemy Materials such as spirit fruits and grass.”

“Regarding the Qi combining pills that you, Alchemist Lu, had just submitted – one bottle is worth ten pill merits. The high-quality ones are worth twelve merits each.”

“If you were to make Third-Grade pills, you’d get more pill merits.”

Lu Yun furrowed his brows and continued, “Different Second-Grade pills have different levels of difficulty to create, so would the pill merits awarded also be different?”

“Of course, they’re different, but the differences aren’t major.”

“I see.” Lu Yun nodded slightly and asked again, “How many Alchemy Materials can 1 exchange for with the pill merits I’ve earned now?”

At his question, Steward Feng’s right hand motioned slightly, and a booklet appeared in his hand. It was labelled ‘Pill Merit Usage Manual.’

“Please have a look, Alchemist Lu.” freeweb(n)ovel.com

Lu Yun took the booklet and started to browse through it.

After a short while, Lu Yun closed it and smiled, “Steward Feng, I’ll exchange for two sets of Meridian Pills refining materials first. Additionally, gift this manual to me, okay?”

His original intention was to see if he could exchange for a Third-Grade pill recipe.

However, even the cheapest Third-Grade pill recipe required ten thousand pill merits for exchange.

The pill recipe for Profound Origin Pill required even more: twelve thousand pill merits.

Smiling helplessly, Lu Yun took a step back and decided to exchange for two sets of Meridian Pills refining materials first.

“Ha ha, of course, there’s no problem.”

Immediately, Steward Feng turned around to enter the room behind the counter.

A few moments later, he came out holding two sets of Meridian Pills materials.

“Alchemist Lu, please give me your badge for a moment.”

Handing the materials to Lu Yun, Steward Feng requested with a smile.

Although Lu Yun was confused, he still took off his badge from his chest and handed it over.

Half an hour later.

Steward Feng returned the badge to Lu Yun.

“Alchemist Lu, from now on, this badge not only represents your identity as a Second-Grade Alchemist, but also your authority to carry out transactions at the Alchemist Guild.”

“Originally, your badge should have four hundred and forty-four pill merits. But now, since you just exchanged for the materials for two Meridian Pills, subtracting four hundred points, you only have forty-four pill merits left in it.”

Lu Yun received it and inspected it slightly. Indeed, there were forty-four pill merits marked on the badge.

“Thanks, Steward Feng, I’ll take my leave now.”

Straight away, he returned to the Alchemy Room, refined the two sets of materials in hand into pills, then prepared to return to the Fly Cloud Pavilion.

In Vermilion Bird Street, excluding the few taverns and inns, most of the shops had already closed, giving off a slightly deserted look.

Fly Cloud Pavilion was still brightly lit. There were no customers in the shop, only a person, staring blankly from behind the counter.

Seeing Lu Yun, the person immediately greeted him.

“Brother Lu, you’re finally back!”

A slight smile appeared on Lu Yun’s face, “It’s so late, why haven’t you closed yet?”

At his question, a look of embarrassment emerged on the other’s face, who then guiltily said, “Brother Lu, I’m sorry. Up until now, I haven’t been able to sell a single First-Grade pill. I’m just too incompetent.”

Lu Yun swept his gaze across, and true enough, a few lonely jade bottles were still displayed on the shelf as before. When compared with the items he left before, the amount had neither increased nor decreased.

“It’s alright. It’s normal for no customers to want to buy any when we only have a few pills on offer. Wait until we fill the shelves with pills, customers will come!”

Lu patted the other’s shoulder and laughed, “You should close up and rest early.”

Seeing that Lu Yun didn’t blame him at all, the other’s heart was filled with gratitude and self-reproach. He was silently swearing to himself that he must manage Fly Cloud Pavilion properly.

After Lu Yun went back to his room, he laughed lightly and quickly forgot about what had just transpired.

This Fly Cloud Pavilion was just a facade for him, and he didn’t care much about it. Whether or not it could be operated normally, it didn’t matter to him..
