Chapter 613: 614: Alchemy Advancement



No matter what realm a martial artist is in, they need a lot of Juyuan Powder. If you want to cultivate slightly faster than others, you can’t do without it.

However, taking too many elixirs may cause a buildup of toxins and form Dan poison, so you can’t keep taking elixirs all the time.

There is another type of elixir called Condensed Frost Pills which are specifically designed to eliminate side effects and detoxify Dan poison. They also sell quite well.

Though taking medicines frequently in between may be troublesome, there are two criteria for good Juyuan Powder: one is that it provides enough accumulation of Star Power, and the other is that it has minimal side effects.

If these two criteria are met, that would be considered a good elixir.

There are mainly two parts of Dan poison: Flame poison and Medicine poison. Medicine poison can be minimized, but Flame poison cannot be eliminated as alchemy cannot be separated from flames.

Unless an alchemist has both flame and water powers simultaneously, the mixing of water and fire can effectively neutralize flame poison.

However, it is almost impossible for an alchemist to have both flame and water elements, as these two completely opposite elements are unlikely to appear in one’s body at the same time.

Lin Zhen doesn’t have to worry about this – with the Dark Star as his foundation, he has access to any type of energy.

A deep azure flurry of flame is shot out, igniting the pill furnace.

Once the pill furnace was fully heated, he added the first batch of medicinal materials, and the alchemy process began.

Following Xu Xingyao’s alchemy process in his memory, Lin Zhen was careful to avoid any mistakes.

After ten minutes, Lin Zhen’s hand trembled, and he made a mistake!

Some medicinal materials are very similar, and Lin Zhen wasn’t familiar enough with them and picked the wrong one.

After distinguishing the two similar medicinal materials carefully, Lin Zhen started his second round of alchemy.

In the second attempt, he couldn’t control the temperature of the flame well and made another mistake.

He continued the third attempt…

In the third attempt, he used too much of the medicinal materials and made yet another mistake…

In the fourth attempt, as Lin Zhen tried to innovate by injecting cold air to detoxify the Dan poison during the alchemy process, he made a mistake again.

After repeating this process for three days, it wasn’t until the morning of the fourth day that Lin Zhen had his first successful alchemy!

As soon as he injected a stream of cold air, strands of black mist rose from the elixir, which were toxins.

When more than half of the black mist inside the elixir had dissipated, the flame poison was already neutralized, leaving only trace amounts of Dan poison.

“Open!”

The pill furnace opened, and the batch of elixirs was successful!

Lin Zhen raised his hand and collected all the elixirs into his palm.

Just like the size of peanuts, the golden pills spun around in his palm – there were hundreds of them!

“Chris, analyze the composition of the elixir for me!”

As an intelligent life form, Chris can do almost anything except transforming into a human. She quickly analyzed the composition of Lin Zhen’s elixir.

“Master, the efficacy of this batch of Juyuan Powder you made is very good. The effective promotion rate is 92%, which is a high-grade elixir and can be sold on the market.”

“Isn’t it a top-grade elixir?” Lin Zhen was slightly unwilling to accept.

“This is already excellent. Master, you should know that elixirs with less than 60% effectiveness cannot be consumed – they are failures. Those with 60% to 80% effectiveness are considered low-grade, and their market price is relatively cheaper. Those with 80% to 90% effectiveness are middle-grade, which are the mainstream elixirs on the market. High-grade elixirs with 91% to 95% effectiveness can be sold at a very good price. As for those with 96% effectiveness or higher, those are top-grade elixirs that are almost impossible to buy on the market. However, you were able to produce a high-grade elixir on your first attempt, which is simply incredible.”

Upon hearing Chris’s explanation, Lin Zhen’s mood improved a bit: “So how much can these elixirs sell for?”

“Master, low-grade Juyuan Powder sells for a thousand per pill, middle-grade costs three thousand per pill, and high-grade is ten thousand per pill. With around a hundred pills of yours, selling them for a million shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Then I’ll give it a try.”

“Oh, no, Master, I suggest you first get an alchemist title before selling. Without an alchemist title, your medicine is just ordinary stuff. Only by establishing your own unique label can your elixir become famous in the future. So I suggest you take the exam for an alchemist title first.”

“Alright, I wonder what title I can obtain with this Juyuan Powder I made?”

“It won’t be enough with just this one type of elixir. You’ll need to produce other elixirs to prove your ability. However, considering the quality of your elixir, it should be no problem to obtain a Fourth Grade Alchemist title now.”

Being a Fourth Grade Alchemist is already quite prestigious. In the Alchemist’s Guild, a Fourth Grade Alchemist serves as an executive and is even provided a separate alchemy room, as well as personal servants. If one obtains a Fifth Grade Alchemist title, they become an elder.

An elder of an Alchemist’s Guild has the qualifications to be called a master, which is even more popular than a World King.

It’s unfortunate that Xu Xingyao, who had just advanced to a Fifth Grade Alchemist, was killed by Lin Zhen. Otherwise, if he had survived, he would have been incredibly successful, and even the Wood King would have treated him as a distinguished guest.

It’s likely that he might have left the Wood King Mansion to go to Xianle County or even have a place in Nan Liang Country.

Alas, he had just gained the power of a Fifth Grade Alchemist and died by Lin Zhen’s hands.

Lin Zhen carefully looked through the information about the Alchemist’s Guild and realized how huge it was.

The alchemist community is a transcendent group; no one wants to offend a high-level alchemist because they might know many World Kings and even Longevity Realm strong ones. A mere word could lead to being chased to death by others.

Top-grade elixirs are basically not circulated on the market, as the rare ones alchemists produce are immediately purchased privately by strong ones. Therefore, strong ones are willing to make friends with alchemists, making alchemists’ status very high.

“If I can become a Fifth Grade Alchemist, the Alchemist’s Guild will even assign two World Kings as my bodyguards, which would be so amazing!”

“If I were to become a Sixth-grade Alchemist, there would even be Longevity Realm strong ones as my bodyguards!”

At this moment, Lin Zhen didn’t even want to participate in the recruitment of Wood King Mansion’s guest officials. He thought about staying and pursuing alchemy instead, as it was a better path.

However, after careful consideration, he decided to go and take a look.

Guest officials in the top few positions have good rewards, so it’s worth trying.

Since he wasn’t selling the elixirs for now, Lin Zhen decided to consume them himself.

Lin Zhen swallowed the Juyuan Powder left by Xu Xingyao along with the Juyuan Powder he had made.

While others may take Juyuan Powder one pill at a time, Lin Zhen, as a Black Hole Beast capable of devouring everything, can consume them by the handful.

Two hundred pills of Juyuan Powder gathered powerful Star Power, which was rapidly accumulated in Lin Zhen’s Dantian!

Lin Zhen had just advanced to Star System Level 4 less than two months ago. Driven by the effect of these medications, he broke through to Star System Level 5 directly!

His Star Power also increased from 670,000 to 710,000!

“This is absolutely incredible! With this alchemy skill and my Devouring Talent, it won’t be long before I can smoothly advance to Domain King!”
