Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Earth Flame Pill
If others were to hear this, they would surely show a look of shock. Although high grade pills are rare, a few could still circulate in the entire Veloria city in a month, but the pill recipe is different! Successfully refining a high grade pill can earn one the title of an alchemist.
Currently, Blaze Regret, even if he can refine the Azure Spirit Liquid with a decent success rate, for the profession of alchemy, at most, he has just touched the threshold.
To become a true alchemist, besides having rich alchemical experience, the most important thing is to have a recipe for a high grade pill!
Arrogant and unmatched Kamal, who has been alchemist for decades, can only refine two types of high grade pills because he lacks access to new pill recipes.
Looking at the number of pill recipes in Veloria City, it would not exceed five! And now, Master Magi casually gave Blaze Regret a pill recipe that had never appeared in Veloria City before, no wonder the latter was so surprised.
Turning his eyes, Blaze Regret carefully placed the pill recipe into the Void Realm stone and then looked at Master Magi with a wry smile, "Is there more?"
"Yes, there is." Master Magi glanced at Blaze Regret indifferently, how could he not understand his thoughts, "For this kind of trash, the Master Magi can easily produce a pile, and it would be fine to wipe your butt every day."
At these words, Blaze Regret was at a loss. He considered something precious, but others considered it trash, which was really disheartening.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, there are some differences between the Earth Flame Pill and regular pills."
As if suddenly remembering something, Master Magi's face revealed a gloating smile, "The materials used for normal pills are medicinal ingredients, but the Earth Flame Pill is different. It can only be refined using some precious spirit herbs."
"Spirit herbs?" Blaze Regret's cheeks visibly trembled.
Not long ago, he had just traded for a snow condensing grass, so he naturally knew the high value of spirit herb. Spirit herbs could be directly consumed by spiritual beasts, and some were even priceless. One spirit herbs could be exchanged for hundreds of equivalent grade medicinal herbs.
But he never expected that the refining materials for the Earth Flame Pill would be spirit herb!
"Three stalks of first grade spiritual herb Xuan Yan Grass, four blossoms of Wu Jian Flower, and two sections of Luo Chen Vine..." After reading the entire formula, Blaze Regret felt an urge to cough up blood.
"This is robbery!" His hand trembled for a long time, and he finally couldn't help but roar.
To refine one Earth Flame Pill, it would cost nearly ten thousand gold coins, and success was not guaranteed!
"If it were easy, alchemists would have long been everywhere. In the future, you will know that advanced prescriptions have all sorts of strange materials. But for now, try to collect spirit herb." Master Magi shrugged, his smile looking particularly irritating.
In the back mountain, hidden within the forest.
A golden, luminous cauldron floated in front of Blaze Regret, emitting a faint fragrance. A small golden orb separated from the cauldron, immediately swallowed by the leaping Red.
"Fifth tier; I wonder when I'll break through to the sixth tier."
Glancing at Red, Blaze Regret murmured softly, feeling gratified. "At the sixth rank, the Scorching Flame Cat can comprehend new spirit techniques, and its combat power can also increase significantly."
However, he also knew that feeding Red such a large quantity of Azure Spirit Liquid would yield minimal results, as it couldn't fully digest it.
But with Master Magi's assistance and the principle that crafting this simple spiritual liquid didn't consume much mental energy, he still used the Azure Spirit Liquid, something regarded as a rare medicinal liquid by the outside world, as if it were plain water for Red.
"Whoosh!"
After discarding a green spiritual core, Red, seeing that it would take some time to craft a new batch of Azure Spirit Liquid, dove back into the forest to hunt those highly aggressive spirit beasts, enhancing its combat experience.
Meanwhile, Master Magi often wandered through the forest, occasionally collecting well hidden spiritual herbs. Upon closer inspection, one would notice that these were all the spiritual herbs needed to craft the Earth Flame Pill.
This scene continued for nearly ten days. After consuming all the materials for crafting Azure Spirit Liquid, Blaze Regret opened his tightly shut eyes and said softly, "Can we craft the Earth Flame Pill now?"
"Purity is acceptable."
Turning a newly refined golden liquid orb, Master Magi slowly spoke, "Congratulations, you finally have the qualification to refine the Earth Flame Pill."
After nearly ten days of practice, Blaze Regret's alchemist skills had clearly improved significantly compared to the beginning.
"According to the pill formula, the Earth Flame Pill can advance a fire attribute spirit beast below the eighth rank by one rank."
With a look of anticipation flashing in his eyes, Blaze Regret picked up a stalk of Xuan Yan Grass, its top resembling burning flames, and gently tossed it into the cauldron, "I hope it won't disappoint me."
In the secluded depths of the dense forest, a wisp of faint blue smoke spiraled gently into the sky, serene and distant.
Beneath that wisp of smoke, in a golden and transparent cauldron, a viscous liquid suffused with a medicinal fragrance slowly gathered.
"Condense!"
With a change in his hand seals, Blaze Regret watched as the gathered viscous liquid began to swirl around like droplets, gradually forming into a spherical shape.
As time passed, the viscous liquid quickly solidified. Moments later, it transformed into a white pill, lying quietly in the cauldron, emitting a lingering fragrance.
"Master Magi, is it considered a success?"
Ignoring the heat of the pill, Blaze Regret grimaced and used his fingers to carefully pick it up, hurriedly presenting it to Master Magi, who was floating in mid air.
"It appears to be a qualified pill."
