Chapter 149: Chapter 120, Alchemy, Departure !

About three minutes later, a bit of yellow impurity gradually appeared in the green medicinal liquid.
Seeing these impurities, Lu Yun’s Pure Yang aggressive aura moved, driving them away from the surface of the liquid.
Once the impurities were mostly removed, purification was completed.
After one portion was purified, Lu Yun’s aggressive aura moved, controlling it to send it to the top of the furnace and re-refining and purifying another spirit grass.
An hour later, he finally refined and purified all the spirit grass.
Continuously controlling the temperature of the flame in the Furnace, the next step, pill condensation, was the most difficult.
Lu Yun had already failed dozens of times at this point, wasting countless spirit grass.
Under Lu Yun’s control, a total of four separate colorful liquids merged together.
Lu Yun immediately threw in another spirit grass that had been prepared earlier into the Furnace.
Upon entering the Furnace and coming into contact with the flame, the capturing spirit grass instantly turned into a liquid and, under Lu Yun’s control of the aggressive aura, quickly completed purification.
Creak!
The moment the liquid purified from the capturing spirit grass made contact with the previous liquid, spiritual energy surged crazily into the Furnace.
Before long, the liquid began to solidify, and a rough pill embryo gradually appeared in the flame.
As the spiritual pill gradually took shape, the heat in the Furnace would gradually change; otherwise, the result would be charred pills.
After refining for nearly two hours, seeing the fully formed Energy Pill in the Furnace, a trace of joy finally appeared on Lu Yun’s face.
He excitedly and cautiously opened the Furnace, retrieved the pill, and put it under his nose to smell. A faint, faint fragrance entered his nostrils, and Lu Yun couldn’t help but feel refreshed.
After half a month of failure, he finally refined an Energy Pill.
After hundreds of failures, he finally became an Alchemist.
After a period of excitement and joy, Lu Yun’s gaze fell on the sides of the Furnace.
On the ground were charred pills, each one blacker than the next.
The most unsightly among them looked like an irregular lump of black charcoal.
These charred pills, a total of sixty-three, represented his sixty-three failures in the pill-condensation step.
He had also failed more than forty times during the steps of refining and purifying the liquid.
Together, that made over a hundred failures.
It took more than a hundred failures to refine an Energy Pill, which showed that Lu Yun’s talent for alchemy was far inferior to his talent for cultivation.
“I wonder if the Energy Value has any effect on the Pill Refining Technique.”
He muttered to himself, then opened the panel expectantly.
[Name]:Lu Yun
[Power]:Flying Spirit Martial Academy
[Martial Arts]: Seven Kill Saber Technique (Reach Profound, cannot be upgraded), Black Tiger Saber Technique (Perfection, cannot be upgraded)
Astonishing Wind Saber Manual (4th Layer 8%) (4th Layer. 50 increase in practice progress per layer)
Gale Thunder Flash Step (Perfection, cannot be upgraded)
Pure Yang Martial Arts Canon (True Qi Chapter, Reach Profound 42%) (Reach Profound, 50 increase in practice progress)
[Innate Talent]:Level 6
[AAartial Arts]:True Qi Realm (11 times refined)
[Energy Value]:8 (one added automatically every two days)
[Conception]Slaughter Conception (First Rank 47%)
[Pill Refining Technique]:First Level (1%)
As expected, the panel added a new line for Pill Refining Technique, along with a progress bar.
Lu Yun focused on the Pill Refining Technique.
“Upgrade.”
After consuming two Energy Values, the Pill Refining Technique progressed twice.
When all his energy values were used up, the Pill Refining Technique progressed to First Level (9%).
“With my current improvements in Pill Refining Technique, if I refine the Energy Pill again, the success rate should greatly increase.” Putting away the panel, Lu Yun looked at the spirit grass beside him.
Now, he had ninety-four sets of materials left for refining Energy Pills.
Start refining.
Create a fire.
Add the medicine.
Refinement process.
Purification process.
Pill Condensation.
Four hours later, the Energy Pill was successfully refined.
Looking at the slightly green Energy Pill with a hint of light blue in his hand, Lu Yun let out a long breath.
“This time, it only took four hours – nearly twice as fast as before.”
Carefully placing the Energy Pill into a jade bottle, Lu Yun continued to refine.
Ten days later.
The remaining materials were finally all refined by Lu Yun, and he now had seventy-five Energy Pills in his hands.
Out of the ninety-four sets of materials, he had refined sixty-seven Energy Pills, giving an astonishing success rate of seventy percent.
In addition, after continuously refining Energy Pills, his Pill Refining Technique also made significant progress, reaching First Rank 32%.
After washing up, Lu Yun had a good rest.
Having refined pills for almost a month straight, the wear on Lu Yun’s spiritual power and physical strength was immense, so he slept for a full day and night.
The next day, when Lu Yun woke up, he found that there was suddenly an extra person in his room.
“I want to go out and gain experience. Do you want to come with me?”
Xiao Chen stared intently at Lu Yun.
Lu Yun didn’t answer.
He was now focused on improving his Pill Refining Technique and hadn’t thought about anything else, let alone going out for an adventure.
After a moment of silence, he said, “Now is the time for our strength to advance rapidly. Staying in the Martial Academy is the best choice.”
Xiao Chen shook his head, “The environment of the Martial Academy is good, but it is too comfortable and not suitable for both me and you.”
Lu Yun countered, “We are both too weak now; without the Martial Academy, we are nothing.”
“Young saplings that do not experience wind and rain will never grow into towering trees. Staying under the protection of the Martial Academy will gradually erode our ambition, and our vision will be limited to the corner of the Spirit Martial Prefecture..”
