Chapter 271 166: Refining the Heavenly Marrow_2
"Just like the Medical Martial Manual, I already have some new ideas. I believe that soon, I will be able to derive a higher level of Medical Martial Manual."
Su Lingxiu continued excitedly.
Li Xuan felt even more gratified. In that case, would he be able to acquire a higher-level Medical Martial Manual soon?
"Good, your enlightenment makes me very gratified as a master."
Li Xuan said approvingly.
Following that, he transmitted the Void Alchemy technique to Su Lingxiu.
Having learned Void Alchemy, Su Lingxiu was naturally unable to execute it immediately. After all, she was only just a beginner at the Innate Realm. She was still lacking some strength to pull off Void Alchemy.
However, from the Void Alchemy technique, she had gained some understanding of alchemy, and her skill in hand-based alchemy had improved a step further.
She had initially planned to concoct the Heavenly Seed Marrow, but due to the comprehension of Void Alchemy, it had to be postponed.
A few days later, Su Lingxiu's alchemy skills had further improved. She now had a lot more confidence in concocting the Heavenly Seed Marrow and was ready to start concocting.
Xu Yan had also returned.
"Junior sister, believe in yourself. Just do your best. Don't be afraid of failure. It's just one plant of spiritual medicine. Although it's a fifth-grade spiritual medicine, if we can have one, we'll naturally have the second and the third."
Seeing Su Lingxiu under great pressure for fear of failing, Xu Yan said.
"Eldest brother is right. Since our family could find one, we could also have a chance to find the second one. If I fail, once I reach the Inner Domain, I can ask our family to look for more."
Meng Chong also said.
"Mm, rest assured, elder brother, I am confident." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Lingxiu clenched her fist and said.
Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan also came over. A fifth-grade spiritual medicine, what a precious thing that was.
What kind of magical effect would the pill made from the fifth-grade spiritual herb bring?
Everyone was curious and came over to watch Su Lingxiu concoct the Heavenly Seed Marrow. Even the Red Cat, which had been resting outside the mansion, jumped in and lay down nearby to watch.
Li Xuan suspected that the Red Cat was hoping for a failed concoction because only if she failed, it would have the opportunity to eat such a precious spiritual herb.
"This big cat seems to have become more intelligent."
Li Xuan sat in a chair, looked at the Red Cat for a moment, and thought.
Before concocting the Heavenly Seed Marrow, Su Lingxiu concocted another kind of pill which she had researched recently. This pill was not low in grade and had extraordinary effects.
Life-saving Pill!
A healing pill that as long as there is a breath left, it can save the person. Also, it has the effect of repairing the foundation.
She began by skillfully refining the Life-saving Pill, preparing to concoct the Heavenly Seed Marrow in the next batch.
"Hu Shan, does our Sword Zun Cliff have fifth-grade spiritual medicine?"
Xie Lingfeng asked curiously.
"I don't know!"
Hu Shan scratched his head and said.
"Brother Xie, your Sword Zun Cliff is such a powerful force with profound heritage. It can't be possible that you don't have fifth-grade spiritual medicine, right?"
Xu Yan asked curiously.
"I cannot tell!"
Xie Lingfeng shook his head: "Fifth-grade spiritual medicine really depends on luck. And in the Inner Domain, it is extremely rare. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible that there is none for sale in the Tianbao Pavilion."
After pondering for a while, he added: "Sword Zun Cliff has a long heritage, and I should lean towards having the fifth-grade spiritual medicine as a treasure, but this should be the real foundation, which I don't have access to."
"When I return, I will ask my father."
Xu Yan found it reasonable. Fifth-grade spiritual medicine must be truly one of the foundations.
"Young Master, if we have fifth-grade spiritual medicine, why not refine it into a pill? Our foundation would be stronger."
Hu Shan said with a touch of desire on his face.
One fifth-grade spiritual medicine would only benefit one person when put to use. Even if it is divided up, it can't serve more than two or three people at most. It's already the limit.
If it is refined into a pill, he might even have the chance to take it!
"That makes sense, but my father has to be willing to give it to me."
Xie Lingfeng said helplessly.
Su Lingxiu was fully focused on her alchemy. A furnace of Life-saving pills was successfully concocted, totaling thirty-six pills.
They were neatly placed in three jade bottles.
"This is the Life-saving Pill. Even if a Great Grandmaster suffers severe injuries and is left with only one breath, it can bring him back to life and also repair the damaged foundation."
Su Lingxiu placed three bottles of pills on the table and said.
"What if I want a bottle? Ten sixth-grade spiritual medicines!"
Xie Lingfeng asked excitedly.
"Sure!"
Su Lingxiu nodded.
With ten sixth-grade spirit medicines, she bought a bottle of Revival Pills and made a great profit.
Of course, for Xie Lingfeng, he too felt he made a killing. If there were no relationships involved, let alone ten, not even a hundred sixth-grade spirit medicines could buy such an extraordinarily effective pill.
"Thank you!"
Xie Lingfeng excitedly put the bottle of pills away.
Su Lingxiu started to make the Heaven Drop Marrow.
She looked grave, extremely focused, and totally undistracted.
Xu Yan and the others held their breath, daring not make a single sound for fear of disturbing Su Lingxiu's alchemy.
For this, Xu Yan even glared at the Red Cat lying nearby, warning it not to make any sound, or else it would be cooked and eaten!
The Red Cat was so scared it did not dare to breathe!
Of all the people, it feared Xu Yan the most. If Xu Yan really wanted to cook it, nobody could stop him!
As for Li Xuan, he certainly wouldn't stop it. His senior disciple was the one he valued the most.
The production of the Heaven Drop Marrow was slow and demanded a lot, making sweat beads appear on Su Lingxiu's forehead. She didn't dare lose focus and carefully controlled the alchemical flame.
At a certain moment, Su Lingxiu slapped the pill furnace with both hands.
The pill was successfully produced!
Out of the original thirty-six pills, six had ended up being spoilage.
The remaining thirty pills were shiny like dewdrops, incredibly tempting. Their alchemical fragrance was condensed and undissipated, and one could only smell the faint fragrance that was soothing upon reaching the tip of one's nose.
Although six were wasted, the overall process was successful.
Su Lingxiu was exceedingly excited.
There were thirty-six small jade bottles on the table, all made out of spirit jade, purchased by Hu Shan from Tieshan County.
In each jade bottle, there was a pill.
"This is a fifth-grade pill, the Heaven Marrow Pill, which improves talent and enlightenment," Su Lingxiu excitedly commented.
"It can actually enhance talent and enlightenment?"
Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan were shocked.
For martial artists, talent and enlightenment were fundamentals.
They were almost determined from birth and couldn't be changed.
"Of course!"
Su Lingxiu nodded, and added, "However, if your talent is too high and your enlightenment too strong, the fifth-grade Heaven Marrow Pill may not be very effective."
After all, if one's talent far exceeded the limit of the Heaven Marrow Pill, it would be as inconsequential as a drop of water falling into the ocean - there would be no noticeable increase.
And, the Heaven Marrow Pill worked best on the first dose. The second dose would only be half as effective, and taking three pills was the limit. Any more, and it would lose its enhancing effect.
Xu Yan took out a Heaven Marrow Pill and studied it closely for a while, and said, "It's of no use to me."
Li Xuan inwardly smirked, "To say that the Heaven Marrow Pill is useless to you is an understatement. Even the highest-grade pills or treasures in the world that enhance talent and enlightenment would be useless to you."
"Because your monstrous abilities already far exceed the scope of what talent and enlightenment can measure."
Meng Chong also shook his head. This Heaven Marrow Pill was of no use to him either.
After all, he was no longer an average physical body. Since the moment he tempered his Vajra Glazed Bone, he surpassed ordinary beings. His talent and enlightenment were no longer ordinary.
Hu Shan was incredibly ecstatic, his body trembling as he exclaimed, "Twenty sixth-grade spirit medicines, I'll take a Heaven Marrow Pill!"
What was he lacking?
Talent and enlightenment!
"No problem!"
Su Lingxiu handed him a jade bottle.
Twenty sixth-grade spirit medicines wasn't a small sum, but considering their friendship, she sold him one.
Then, she turned to Xie Lingfeng.
"Do you want one?"
Xie Lingfeng's lips twitched. Xu Yan and Meng Chong, even Su Lingxiu couldn't use the Heaven Marrow Pill. But he, the number one genius of the Sword Monarch Cliff, actually had to use the Heaven Marrow Pill to enhance his talent and enlightenment?
The gap was too wide, a bit embarrassing.
"Yes!"
Xie Lingfeng nodded.
Su Lingxiu handed him a jade bottle, and received twenty more sixth-grade spirit medicines.
"Your talent isn't bad. The enhancement from the Heaven Marrow Pill might not be very high for you."
Su Lingxiu reminded him.
The higher the talent and the comprehension, the less noticeable the effects of the Heaven Marrow Pill would be.
"I understand!"
Xie Lingfeng nodded, thinking that any improvement, no matter how slight, is still improvement.
Meng Chong took a pill and said, "I promised to give one to our clan member. Once he experiences the benefits, he will definitely work harder."
After tasting the benefits, Meng Shushu would surely work hard to find fifth-grade spirit medicines.
