Chapter 233: Chapter 225: Attempting Elixir Refinement

Translator: 549690339

However, upon realizing this, He Song’s somewhat wilting expression also turned into a faint smile at this moment.

He knew.

As long as his mana was being extracted, it meant that the Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet he had drawn had truly been completed!

As his mana was completely extracted, the previously pure white Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet, adorned with patterns, also began to shimmer with a faint light at this moment.

Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet.

In order to distinguish it from the Qi Refining stage spirit amulets.

Its name naturally stands out from the rest.

Such as the amulet seal He Song just drew.

It is called the Thick Earth Spirit Amulet.

Compared with the Qi Refining stage Thick Earth Amulet, it has an additional “spirit” character.

The other Foundation Establishment Realm spirit amulets are, of course, the same.

Divine Movement Amulet has turned into Divine Movement Spirit Amulet.

Golden Light Amulet becomes Golden Light Spirit Amulet.

At the same time, the Foundation Establishment Realm uses Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulets that are divided into three grades: high, middle, and low.

It is differentiated according to the amount of mana contained within the Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet.

The more mana in it, the stronger its effects.

Of course, to be able to hold more mana, the amulet paper used for creating the spirit amulet and the amulet ink used for drawing need more powerful materials.

Only when the materials can withstand enough mana can the power of the Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet be properly utilized.

Just like the low-grade Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet in front of He Song, it is used by Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators.

The amulet paper, amulet ink, and other materials used are meant for creating low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulets.

To create middle-grade or even high-grade Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulets, better amulet paper, better amulet ink, and better amulet pens are required.

In addition, more mana is needed.

Every time a middle-grade or high-grade Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulet is created, the mana extracted from it will be much more than it is now.

However, for He Song.

Creating middle-grade or high-grade Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulets remains far too distant for him.

As of now, he has only managed to create a low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulet by chance, and its success rate is less than one-tenth.

Under these circumstances, the low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulet he had created was just for show.

He doesn’t know how long it will take to mass-produce them.

Or to increase the success rate of creating low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulets to over fifty percent.

“Next, while continuously drawing high-quality Thick Earth Amulets, I have to gradually improve the success rate of the low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulets.”

“Once the success rate of low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulets reaches over fifty percent, the spirit stones I’ll receive will be even more.”

“By then, spirit stones will naturally come rolling in.”

“Moreover, in three years, the spirit plants in the Medicine Garden should be ripe.”

“In these three years, I must also study Elixir Refinement Skill.”

“If I can learn the Elixir Refinement Skill to a level where I can successfully refine elixirs, using it to earn spirit stones will also be a highway to success.”

Having stored the low-grade Thick Earth Spirit Amulet he had just drawn into his storage bag,

After pondering for a moment, He Song quickly decided to allocate some of his energy to studying Elixir Refinement Skill.

Studying Elixir Refinement Skill requires spending many spirit stones.

However, at this moment, He Song’s success rate when drawing high-quality Thick Earth Amulets and other high-quality spirit amulets has already reached over fifty percent.

Although his success rate when drawing Foundation Establishment Spirit

Amulets is still pitifully low,

Even so, by only selling high-quality Thick Earth Amulets and other high-quality spirit amulets in his usual business, He Song can still earn quite a lot of spirit stones.

In this way, He Song’s spirit stones have begun to slowly increase, instead of being depleted like before.

Spirit stones aren’t lacking too much.

So naturally, studying Elixir Refinement Skill becomes a must.

Those spirit medicines in the five Medicine Gardens he has opened up will mature in three years.

By then, if he wants to earn more spirit stones, Elixir Refinement Skill will be indispensable.

Take advantage of these three years to study Elixir Refinement Skill.

Perhaps after three years, he may even be able to become an elixir refiner and start refining elixirs directly.

If he fails to become one after three years,

He can simply gather all the spirit medicines and keep them in his storage bag for a few years.

And when he’s able to refine elixirs, he can start refining them, which is perfectly feasible.

He Song at the moment,

Although he still doesn’t have enough spirit stones to spend, having amulet making as a side job is much better than the previous situation.

Moreover, he still receives an annual salary of three thousand spirit stones.

This is more than enough to support He Song’s daily cultivation and practice drawing Foundation Establishment Spirit Amulets.

Under these circumstances, adding the study of Elixir Refinement Skill doesn’t pose any problems. Immediately,

After making the decision,

He Song went to the Artifacts Pavilion inside the Herbs Immortal Workshop, spending several hundred spirit stones to buy a middle-grade artifact, an Elixir furnace.

As well as some spirit grass for refining Qi Refining stage elixirs, to be used for practice.

He Song had already considered during his ten years in the Thick Earth Sect that one day he would need to use the Elixir Refinement Skill.

Even after leaving the Thick Earth Sect, it wouldn’t be impossible.

So, in preparation for the future, he had already imprinted the introductory chapters of Elixir Tao, its initial understanding, and some other skills he might need into his memory.

In this way, even if He Song leaves the Thick Earth Sect, he will still be able to learn various Foundation Establishment techniques he wants to study at any time.

Without having to go back to the Thick Earth Sect and imprint the Foundation Establishment techniques he wants to learn into his memory again. It’s because He Song was well prepared that

He was able to study the introductory chapters of Elixir Tao and its initial understanding without having to return to the Thick Earth Sect.

After purchasing the elixir furnace, and the spirit grass needed for refining elixir during the Qi Refining stage,

He Song returned to his residence, making progress in both the Amulet Tao and Elixir Tao simultaneously.

Since his own cultivation was at the Foundation Establishment Realm, and he had also practiced the Qi Observing Skill,

He Song’s progress in both elixir and amulet making could be described as extraordinary.

In the Amulet Tao, since He Song had now started attacking the Foundation Establishment spirit amulets, his progress was rapid, but it would still take a considerable amount of time.

As for the Elixir Tao, since He Song was a beginner and also had insights into array tao and amulet tao, combined with his cultivation and Qi Observing Skill, as well as the support of his divine sense, his understanding of elixir refinement was extremely fast.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he could know how each spirit grass and spirit medicine’s medicinal properties were and their amount.

With a glance, he could know the concentration of the medicine contained in each spirit grass and spirit medicine and how much to add.

With a casual weigh, he could figure out the amount of the spirit medicine in his hand and the quantity to put into the elixir furnace.

With the Qi Observing Skill, the cultivation of Foundation Establishment Realm, a divine sense far beyond other cultivators, and a learning speed far beyond other cultivators,

when He Song turned back to learn the Elixir Refinement Skill, it was as if he had opened a plug-in, and his learning speed was extremely fast.

Compared to those cultivators who started to explore elixir refinement from the Qi Refining stage or even the mortal stage,

He Song’s speed of learning from the ground up with the Foundation Establishment Realm was naturally unparalleled.

In one day, He Song might be able to surpass their months of study.

Of course,

the absolute factor here was He Song’s financial resources and his extraordinary learning speed.

Other cultivators who started exploring elixir refinement from the mortal stage or the Qi Refining stage,

at the beginning, they were not like He Song, who could invest without worrying about the cost as long as there was improvement.

Generally speaking, a force cultivating an elixir master would usually select one or a few more talented individuals from many people to train.

In the early stages, when talent had not yet been shown, it was simply wishful thinking to get unlimited resources for cultivation.

But He Song was different.

The spirit stones he spent were all his own.

As long as he could improve his Elixir Refinement Skill, He Song would not feel any heartache when spending spirit stones.

In these circumstances, He Song could directly start, correct wherever he was wrong, and keep correcting until he was right.

As a result, his understanding of Elixir Refinement Skill would definitely increase day by day.

The deeper his understanding, the higher the success rate when refining elixirs.

The higher the success rate when refining elixirs, the more rewards he would receive when selling the elixirs.

The elixirs that He Song initially refined were all for Qi Refining stage cultivators, which he couldn’t use himself.

Therefore, he could accumulate a lot of them and then sell them all at once.

The spirit stones he received could then be used to purchase new spirit medicine for refining elixirs.

This cycle continued repeatedly.

With his extraordinary learning speed, He Song’s achievements in elixir refinement could be said to be extraordinary.

However,

just as He Song was immersed in the study of Elixir Refinement Skill, continuously optimizing his own alchemy skills, the outside world, was constantly spreading various kinds of news.

At this time, four years had passed since Master Qingyue left He Song.

And this meant that the Thick Earth Sect, Golden Sword Sect, Pure Yin Sect, and Jade Flower Sect had been allied for four years.

In these four years,

from time to time, news would come out that the Golden Elixir Masters of the Four Great Sects had gathered together, possibly discussing something.

From time to time, news would come out about what the Four Great Sects wanted to do.

However, none of this news was ever confirmed by the Four Great Sects.

Even Master Qingyue scoffed at these rumors.

According to her, the current alliance of the Four Great Sects was merely an alliance on paper.

As for the so-called gathering of the five Golden Elixir Masters and hushed talks, plans made by the Four Great Sects, all of these were smoke screens.

All the fake news was deliberately released by the Four Great Sects to confuse and deceive outsiders.

At this moment, although the Four Great Sects had formed an alliance, internal cooperation had not yet begun.

Since they couldn’t see the enemy, and the Sun Faction was right behind them,

the so-called alliance was nothing more than following the orders of the Sun Faction and putting on a show. As for real cooperation, it didn’t exist.

Because after the Sun Faction ordered the Four Sects to form an alliance, there were no further instructions.

So the Golden Elixir Masters of the Four Great Sects could only wait in silence.

Releasing these fake news pieces was merely a way for them to stage a play to show the Sun Faction how stable and reliable the Four Sects Alliance was..
