"Fellow Daoist He, how confident are you?"
White Dragon Daoist looked at He Pingsheng with anticipation.
He Pingsheng looked at him, thought for a moment, and then said, "It's hard to say, but I should have more than 50% confidence!"
"Everyone, because I have never refined this Double Divinity Pill before, I need to go back and meditate for three days!"
"After three days, I will officially begin Alchemy!"
"Please wait for me for a few days!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone became restless.
Zi Xian Daoist swiftly blocked He Pingsheng's path: "Fellow Daoist He, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to secretly keep it for yourself?"
"Fellow Daoist He!" Xuan Yuan also followed, saying, "Although this Double Divinity Pill is only a Low Grade Medicinal Pill, its value is immense. Even a Low Grade one will become a hot commodity at auctions once it reaches the trade association!"
"It's not that we don't trust you, but this matter is truly of great importance!"
"You can go into secluded cultivation!" White Dragon Daoist said, "However, you must do so under the supervision of the three of us!"
"Otherwise, it's fine to do it here at Fellow Daoist Xuan Yuan's place!"
He Pingsheng shook his head.
It was impossible for him to go into secluded cultivation in someone else's Dao field.
"How about this..." He thought for a moment and said, "I have a small courtyard in this city, and I need to go back to secluded cultivation now. If the three of you are truly worried, please come back to the small courtyard with me and supervise me!"
"This..." The other three listened to He Pingsheng's words, looked at each other, and then each nodded.
"Alright!" Xuan Yuan said, "Then without further ado, let's go now!"
He Pingsheng's condition of three days of secluded cultivation was not excessive.
It was very reasonable.
If it were Xuan Yuan Chang Geng, he would also not immediately start Alchemy. He would also need to go into seclusion to familiarize himself with the Pill Formula of this Double Divinity Pill.
The four set off again, and soon arrived at He Pingsheng's small courtyard.
This small courtyard was very simple, with only one building and a few Formations.
"Everyone..."
He Pingsheng looked at everyone and said, "You can check here first!"
"If there's no problem, you can rest on the first floor, and I'll go up to the third floor. In three days, I'll start Alchemy!"
The few people then looked inside and out of He Pingsheng's small building. The small building was simple to begin with, and besides the Formations, there was only space, with no other tricks.
So, after about a quarter of an hour, He Pingsheng sat on the third floor and began to meditate.
He opened the Formations one by one, and this third floor was isolated.
Even if the people downstairs wanted to come up, it would be impossible.
Of course, while meditating, He Pingsheng did not forget to put the Materials for this Double Divinity Pill into the gathering treasure basin.
After a day of such meditation, He Pingsheng already had some confidence in refining this Double Divinity Pill.
And the Materials in the gathering treasure basin had also changed from one set to two sets.
Then he started the furnace for Alchemy.
Although it was upstairs and downstairs, because the third floor was shielded by a Formation, the people downstairs would not know when He Pingsheng was doing Alchemy upstairs.
The usual rule!
To ensure the success rate of the Medicinal Pill, he added another drop of Golden Bee Holy Nectar.
This way, even if the Medicinal Pill didn't form, it would ensure that the furnace wouldn't explode. As long as the furnace didn't explode, the worst outcome would be a discarded Medicinal Pill.
The result was still good.
The first batch of Medicinal Pills was formed!
However, the quality was very low!
Out of twelve Medicinal Pills, only four were Medium Grade, and the rest were all Low Grade.
He Pingsheng was not discouraged by this; instead, he chuckled.
It was already extremely rare to achieve this quality on the first attempt at refining the Double Divinity Pill.
Continue to refine the second batch!
For the second batch, He Pingsheng did not add Golden Bee Holy Nectar.
Because he felt it was too wasteful.
The value of Golden Bee Holy Nectar itself was already very high.
The quality of Medicinal Pills refined without the Holy Nectar would definitely be lower, but as long as they could form, it didn't matter.
The result greatly disappointed He Pingsheng.
Refinement failed.
Although the refinement failed, there were still discarded Medicinal Pills, a total of twelve.
After refining two batches of Medicinal Pills, He Pingsheng put these twelve discarded Medicinal Pills and the successfully formed Medicinal Pills from the first batch together into the gathering treasure basin and left them in the room.
Night fell, and the moonlight gathered.
He Pingsheng's gaze was fixed on the gathering treasure basin, waiting for the changes within it.
After about an hour, it changed!
The twelve discarded Medicinal Pills suddenly became twenty-four discarded Medicinal Pills, and the four Medium Grade ones became eight, while the eight Low Grade ones became sixteen.
He Pingsheng was not in a hurry to take them out.
Instead, he continued to wait.
After another hour, the quality of the Medicinal Pills also changed.
The discarded Medicinal Pills became Low Grade, the Low Grade became Medium Grade, and the Medium Grade became High Grade.
Only then did He Pingsheng reach out and take out twelve Medium Grade Medicinal Pills.
The rest were left in the basin to continue strengthening!
After one night, He Pingsheng obtained thirty-six excellent grade Medicinal Pills and twelve Medium Grade ones.
One set of Medicinal Materials turned into two sets, which refined two batches of Medicinal Pills, and those two batches of Medicinal Pills then turned into four batches.
It was so exhilarating!
He Pingsheng chuckled as he put away the gathering treasure basin and the excellent grade Medicinal Pills, then took the twelve Medium Grade ones and walked out of the Formation, heading down to the first floor.
Seeing He Pingsheng come downstairs, the three people who were sitting cross-legged below instantly stood up.
"Fellow Daoist He, have you finished your meditation?"
"It hasn't been three days yet, can you start Alchemy?"
"How is it?"
The three quickly asked.
He Pingsheng chuckled and placed a jade bottle on the table: "Here... it's done!"
"What?"
"Done?"
"Already refined?"
Xuan Yuan Chang Geng, while shocked, quickly walked to the table and poured out the Medicinal Pills.
There were twelve in total.
All were Medium Grade.
"Holy cow..." Xuan Yuan Chang Geng said, "They're all Medium Grade..."
"That's great!"
"Hahaha..."
"Hehehe..."
The three were as happy as children.
Originally, they thought it would be good enough if the Medicinal Pills formed, and Low Grade would already be a blessing.
Now, it was even better; he directly gave them Medium Grade!
That's great.
"I'm impressed, truly impressed..." Xuan Yuan Chang Geng was convinced this time.
He was completely convinced and cupped his hands towards He Pingsheng: "Fellow Daoist He's Alchemy technique is far superior to Xuan Yuan's. Today, this old man finally knows that there is always someone better out there!"
"Hehehe!"
He Pingsheng, however, was very humble and said, "Brother Xuan Yuan, you flatter me. It's all just luck!"
Luck?
Xuan Yuan didn't think so.
Having lived for over a hundred years, how could he not distinguish between luck and skill? The other person was just being polite.
"Alright!" He waved his sleeve and said, "Since we have the Medicinal Pills now, let's start distributing them. We'll stick to our previous agreement; I'll take four!"
With that, Xuan Yuan directly took four!
"I'll take two, hehehe..." White Dragon Daoist had a lewd smile on his face as he quickly walked to the table and took two.
Zi Xian also took two.
Finally, there were four left in the bottle, which naturally belonged to He Pingsheng.
"Fellow Daoist He!" Xuan Yuan looked at He Pingsheng with respect: "I wonder if Fellow Daoist He is interested in joining my Alchemy shop? If you are, we can split the profits from the Alchemy shop six-four, how about that?"
"You don't need to manage it!"
