Chapter 23 Alchemy

The big peaches that were transplanted before have light pink peach blossoms, and the fragrance is overflowing, attracting many spirit bees to come and collect nectar.

Under Wang Nannan's promotion, it originally took five years to bloom and bear fruit, but now it only takes two years. Once the big peaches are ripe, Wang Nannan will have another considerable income.

You know, big peaches can help the early stage of Qi Refining to break through the bottleneck, which is a very important resource for the family.

The fragrance of flowers fills the valley, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Wang Nannan broke through and reached the "second level of Qi Refining".

Even if you are a cultivator with five spiritual roots, you can't always stay at the first level of Qi Refining, right? You still need to improve your external cultivation in time.

After Wang Dingru and the two elders expressed their congratulations, the valley returned to peace.

In stark contrast to the valley, the outside world is very lively.

Not long ago, the three major Jindan sects such as Shennongmen announced that they would open a resource exchange office for casual cultivators and cultivators from various families in advance, using the corpses of hunted monsters as a voucher to exchange for monster hunting points, and then use the monster hunting points to exchange for various resources.

The resources are varied and involve all aspects of the cultivators, including rare resources such as foundation-building pills and longevity pills, and the quantity is limited, first come first served.

The news was like a stone falling into the water, causing a wave of waves. Many opportunistic cultivators tried to exchange points for the monsters they had hunted before, but they were discovered and driven out by the Shennong Sect. Some of them even had conflicts with the Shennong Sect and were killed on the spot.

Some rookies tried to test the bottom line, and everyone knew it.

They formed teams to go to the Qingfeng Mountains, hoping to exchange more monster hunting points and strengthen their own strength before the beast tide came.

The Wang family was not willing to lag behind. In addition to the first group of monster hunting teams that were building defenses, Wang Xiangxiu organized a second group of clansmen to go.

Suddenly, the clan became much quieter, and there were fewer people talking.

"Life-extending pills..." Wang Nannan was a little envious. He had always wanted to try it out. If he could get a cheat code by taking the life-extending pills, his strength would be greatly improved.

Helplessly, he could only watch helplessly. Not to mention hunting monsters, his actual combat level was zero, and he probably couldn't beat the cultivators of the same level.

"If I contribute enough, maybe the family can help me get some life-extending pills." Wang Nannan thought so.

Just when Wang Nannan was about to continue to hide, Wang Xiangxiu brought the alchemy furnace and spiritual medicine he had requested.

"The alchemy furnace is an old one, worth eighty spiritual stones."

"Spiritual medicine is cheap, one hundred furnaces of fasting pill spiritual medicine, eighty furnaces of healing powder spiritual medicine, a total of fifty spiritual stones, enough for you to practice in the early stage."

"And this alchemy experience, it was compiled by your seventh grandfather himself, as a free gift to you to support the younger generation."

"Thank the seventh grandfather for me." Wang Nannan took everything with both hands.

"Your seventh grandfather asked me to tell you that he still has several first-grade pill recipes. If you need them, you can use your contribution to exchange them with him."

Wang Nannan nodded seriously. There are very few pill recipes in the clan. It is estimated that most of them are in the hands of the seventh grandfather Wang Dingkong. If the other party is willing to exchange, it is better than going out to find them.

However, for the current matter, I need to refine the fasting pill and healing pill first.

Healing powder is not very useful. After all, the cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining are protected by the family tightly. They usually don't suffer any harm and are almost useless. Only some casual cultivators will purchase some healing powder because it is cheap.

The fasting pill is completely the opposite. They are all the simplest pills, but the fasting pill is very popular. When retreating, traveling, treasure hunting, etc., the cultivators in the Qi Refining period have no time to cook, so they can only take the fasting pill.

As for the foundation-building cultivators, they have long been able to fast and can go without food for a long time, so they naturally don't need the fasting pill.

"The Bigu Pill is a type of pill that sells at a low profit but high volume. The main material is spiritual rice, which has a very low cost, but it has a good market and is not difficult to sell. There is also a great demand within the clan."

"The healing powder is a little disappointing, so let's practice with the healing powder first!"

"After becoming proficient, I will refine the Bigu Pill." Wang Nannan decided, anyway, I don't mind the damage to the spiritual medicine of the healing powder.

He did it right away, set up the alchemy furnace, lit the furnace, recalled the records in "The Beginning of Alchemy", and practiced it bit by bit.

The environment without anyone to disturb is good, Wang Nannan can concentrate on practicing.

The failure of refining the pills one by one did not dampen Wang Nannan's confidence at all. Instead, it took only more than ten days from being unfamiliar to being able to do it easily.

"Finally succeeded!" The first batch of healing powder was successfully refined and wrapped in oil paper and placed in front of him.

Just such a small portion the size of a thumb, a spiritual sand, can treat some minor injuries.

Wang Nannan's mouth corners slightly raised, with the first success, there will be a second time, a third time...

Calm down and continue to refine.

The success rate of the simplest elixir finally increased, and in more than 20 days, all the spiritual medicines were used up.

"I wasted a lot of time summarizing experience and practicing, but thanks to the alchemy experience given by Grandpa Qi, I pointed out the direction for myself, otherwise it would take more than 20 days!" Wang Nannan sighed, now the success rate of refining healing powder is close to 60%, which is already very amazing for a beginner.

Take out the spiritual medicine of the Bigu Pill and continue to refine.

With more than 20 days of experience in alchemy, Wang Nannan is no longer in a hurry, and it is very natural to start refining Bigu Pills. The first furnace is completed quickly.

"Waste pill, although it failed, it is much better than the first time to refine healing powder."

"The second furnace still produced useless pills, but finally it had the aroma of pills."

The third furnace, the fourth furnace...

The seventh furnace succeeded.

A little finger-sized pill came out of the furnace. Looking at its shape, color, and smell, it was no different from a normal pill.

One mouthful of it, and a feeling of fullness came immediately.

"A normal pill can last for a day, and the ones I made are about the same."

"And a furnace of ten pills, the cost of spiritual rice plus other spiritual medicines is about fifteen spiritual sands, the profit is 3-5 spiritual sands, and the refining time is about seven or eight minutes."

"According to this calculation, if there is no failure, one hour can make a net profit of about 20-35 spiritual sands, which is more than one spiritual stone, not bad!" Especially as the alchemy technique becomes more proficient, it is really difficult to fail in refining the pill.

Wang Nannan felt very satisfied and put away the other pills.

Now that the two simplest pills can be successfully refined, the next step is to improve the success rate and obtain new pill recipes.

The recipe can be exchanged from Grandpa Qi first, but the success rate is high. Wang Nannan plans to put all his time into the Bigu Pill. As for the healing powder, he will give up decisively. After all, the purpose of the healing powder for his practice has been fulfilled.
