Chapter 112: Chapter 74 Precious Pill Record! The Qi-Blood Pill is Complete!_3

“Next, it’s the continuous making of Vivid Qi Pills for practice, and once proficiency and success rate improve, I’ll start making Qi-Blood Pills,” Su Changkong was full of motivation.

Practicing with Qi-Blood Pills was naturally impossible, as the ingredients for a single Qi-Blood Pill cost 3,000 taels of silver. It wasn’t just Su Changkong who couldn’t afford such extravagance, even the wealthiest families in Ink Forest Prefecture City couldn’t squander money like that.

It was proven that Su Changkong’s potential value of 15 wasn’t just for show. In just one week, his Alchemy had progressed from the beginner’s level to the Beginner’s Path of the first realm!

By this time, Su Changkong already had a chance of successfully making Vivid Qi Pills!

“Did I succeed in making it?”

Next to the Pill Furnace, Su Changkong’s face was filled with joy as he looked at the dried-up Pill Furnace with a few warm pill medicines on top.

There were ten pills in total. Su Changkong took them out one by one with a jade spoon and scrutinized each of them closely.

“Out of the ten Vivid Qi Pills, only two are successful, the other eight are failures!”

Su Changkong found that of the ten pill medicines from this batch, only two were of acceptable quality, the other eight were either burnt or melted into a mess that would dissipate upon touch.

But regardless, this was a good start and bolstered Su Changkong’s motivation!

If the people of Precious Pill Residence knew that Su Changkong had gone from knowing nothing about Alchemy to successfully making Vivid Qi Pills in just six to seven days, they would be astonished!

Although Vivid Qi Pills were meant for training and weren’t particularly difficult to make, ordinary people still had to practice painstakingly for several months, or even half a year, before they could manage to make them on their own. Su Changkong did it in just one week, which was absolutely a display of genius!

“Keep going!”

Su Changkong neglected sleep and food, completely immersed in the art of Alchemy, as driven as when he first learned martial arts or forging, with a goal and direction, he kept moving forward non-stop!

Time passed, and it was three months since Su Changkong had arrived in Ink Forest Prefecture City. During these three months, aside from his daily routine of practice, most of his energy was devoted to Alchemy.

Alchemy (3rd realm Complete Understanding 5%)

In three months, Su Changkong’s Alchemy improved dramatically, soaring from the beginner’s level straight to the 3rd realm, showing significant achievement!

The astounding talent brought by the potential value of 15 was beyond what ordinary people could imagine. Yet, the accompanying expenditure was equally painful for Su Changkong, “Three months of time and nearly thirty thousand taels of silver spent…”

In order to master Alchemy quickly, Su Changkong practiced every day, spending about three hundred taels of silver, amounting to nearly thirty thousand bucks in three months. This was unquestionably painful.

In Clearwater City, Su Changkong risked his life to hunt disciples of the Black Lotus Sect, and County Magistrate Wang Yun, to atone, emptied his coffers, giving Su Changkong nearly fifty thousand taels of silver.

Now, having spent more than half in just three months, it’s no wonder alchemists are so rare; only those from large families with deep pockets and daily substantial incomes have the means to foster such talent!

“With my Alchemy reaching the third realm, and my success rate in making Vivid Qi Pills greatly increased, it’s time to try making Qi-Blood Pills!”

Su Changkong took a deep breath, feeling excited and nervous.

With his capital, all his remaining wealth was enough for six sets of Qi-Blood Pill ingredients. Could he manage to make any Qi-Blood Pills, and if so, how many successful batches could he produce?

“Thinking too much is useless! Just begin!”

Su Changkong didn’t overthink it. Even if he failed completely, with his temperament, he could bear such a blow and its cost.

“Blood Ginseng of twenty years must be juiced and ground into powder, and the Three-leaf flower must be boiled for three hours. Distillation should be carried out using the distillation method, leaving the liquid for pill-making.” Vivid Qi Pills were just entry-level medicines, and the steps and difficulty in making Qi-Blood Pills were several times more complicated and higher than those for Vivid Qi Pills. Su Changkong proceeded patiently with the preparatory work.

Everything ready, Su Changkong began the Alchemy, adding the fourteen or fifteen prepared ingredients into the Pill Furnace one by one.

Next was controlling the heat, adding necessary ingredients when needed.

Beneath the Pill Furnace, the flames soared as Su Changkong dared not be careless, concentrating fully, monitoring every movement within the Pill Furnace, working the bellows, meticulous about the temperature’s intensity.

“Sigh… It still ended in failure.”

Time flowed, and as night approached, Su Changkong let out a sigh, his heart thumping hard at the sight of the paste in the Pill Furnace.

This time, it was three thousand taels of silver wasted!

Su Changkong’s remaining money was all spent on buying ingredients for

Qi-Blood Pills at Wanling Pavilion.

Su Changkong did not continue immediately but took a good rest first. He tuned his mindset and physical condition to their peaks before starting the second attempt at Alchemy. He had six chances!

The second furnace was still a failure!

“Failed again? The control of the heat was perfect this time. Could it be an error in processing the ingredients?” Even with Su Changkong’s state of mind, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. Two failures meant six thousand taels of silver down the drain!

But Su Changkong adjusted his state of mind and went over the pill recipe for the Qi-Blood Pill carefully once more, including the processing of ingredients and the technique and steps of Alchemy, meticulously imprinting every word in his mind before starting over. The third Alchemy attempt commenced.

Time progressed to evening, and Su Changkong stopped adding the charcoal. The flames beneath the Pill Furnace gradually faded, and Su Changkong was full of trepidation.

Whoosh!

As time ticked away, a white mist tinged with light red emerged from the Pill Furnace, resembling threads of silk. At the same time, a fragrant aroma that stirred the blood and induced salivation filled the room..
