After Ling Han left the library, he went straight out of the academy and wandered around the imperial capital, looking for a pharmacy.
A warrior's practice is inseparable from elixirs, but elixirs can only be refined by alchemists, which limits the number of pharmacies. Ling Han looked for a few pharmacies, but found that the scale of these pharmacies was too small, and the elixirs sold were all below the heaven level. It was impossible to buy the refining materials for the replenishing pills.
You can tell by looking at the gold and silver payment here. The level is too low.
Ling Han searched for a while and finally found a drugstore with a large store and a big sign. Before he entered, he saw four guards standing at the door, all of whom were at the Shattering Void Realm.
He knew that this drugstore must have what he needed.
Sure enough, the elixirs and medicinal materials here are very complete, and the most advanced elixirs even reach the seventh level of the god level!
What is this concept
It was used by powerful people in the Sun and Moon Realm. If Ling Han took one now, he would definitely explode and die.
This also applies to the True Essence Stone. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in it is too rich. If he goes to refine it now, he will be seeking death, and it will not have the effect of improving his cultivation level at all. Therefore, now this cultivation treasure can only be used as money.
Ling Han was not reluctant to give up. As the saying goes, if you can't let go of your child, you can't trap the wolf. As long as he refines the God-Building Pill, it will bring him an endless supply of True Essence Stones.
Fortunately, the purchasing power of the True Essence Stone is quite considerable. A standard-sized True Essence Stone—that is, one kilogram—can purchase five God-Replenishing Pills, and if you purchase raw materials, that can be as many as ten.
The concept of ten portions is not that only ten pills can be refined, but that each portion can produce up to five pills. This is calculated based on the size of the standard alchemy furnace, and it also involves the difficulty of interweaving the veins. This is standard.
However, few alchemists can refine all the elixirs in a batch. Five is the limit, and refining three is above the standard.
Taking into account the cost, as long as five pills can be refined from ten materials, that is, the elixir yield rate of only 10% is enough to repay the cost. From this point of view, it is the same in the God Realm. Alchemy is a highly profitable business.
Unfortunately, it is too difficult to become an alchemist, and there are even fewer alchemists with high success rates.
After learning that Ling Han wanted to refine the God-Building Pill, the clerk was very enthusiastic and said that if Ling Han refined the pill, they could buy it, but they would not charge it for five One-Truth Essence Stones, but seven. Replace one piece with another.
They have to make some money, right
The Void-Breaking Realm is definitely the largest group of warriors in the Luanxing Dynasty, so the God-Building Pill is very popular, and no matter how large the quantity is, there is no fear that it will fail to sell. On the contrary, this kind of elixir is "low-priced" and has always been a small profit but quick turnover, which is more effective in attracting customers. Sometimes it is even promoted at a loss.
Ling Han didn't care about this. He not only bought ready-made materials, but also seeds.
There is such a good thing as the Black Tower, but it would be an idiot to leave it alone!
Soon, he will have an endless supply of raw materials, and he will no longer have to come here to buy them.
Moreover, the God-Building Pill is only a tenth-level elixir after all. Most of the medicinal materials used only require a hundred years of age, and only a few medicinal materials require two hundred years of age. For Black Tower, it only takes two months.
Ling Han spent two pieces of True Essence Stone, one to buy ten materials, and the other to buy a large number of seeds.
After returning to the academy, he began to concentrate on alchemy.
Purifying materials and the like were naturally not difficult for him at all. He took a deep breath, and the next step was to make alchemy.
Turn on the furnace!
In the black tower, Ling Han didn't need to worry about the extreme temperature of the flames. He was the real god here.
Boom, the flames were blazing, Ling Han threw the medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace one by one. Under the refining of the real fire, the energy in the medicinal materials began to volatilize, and veins intertwined.
Ling Han took action to reorganize these vein patterns to meet the requirements of the God-Replenishing Pill, so that it can exert its due effect.
He kept adding medicinal materials, and the vein patterns became more and more complex.
With a bang, Ling Han sighed dejectedly, the explosion failed.
As the Alchemy Emperor, how long has it been since he tasted the failure of refining
Ling Han couldn't help but think of the past years, when he was swimming in the ocean of alchemy, and furnace explosions were commonplace. And without so many failures, how could there be any subsequent Alchemy Emperor
He did not immediately start refining the second material. Instead, he closed his eyes and recalled the previous details and what led to his failure. If you don't understand this clearly, you will fail a hundred times if you practice a hundred times.
After a long time, Ling Han started the second refining.
Boom, failed again.
But if someone were present, they would find that Ling Han failed this time later than the last time.
In other words, he has improved.
After the summary fails, come again.
Bang, it failed for the third time, but it didn’t matter, there was progress again.
The fourth time, it still failed. The fifth time, still failed. The sixth time, also failed.
But a smile appeared on Ling Han's lips. He had forgotten about time and devoted himself wholeheartedly to alchemy. He was confident that he would succeed the seventh time.
Come!
He carefully moved his hands continuously, exerting force one after another, regulating the veins of the medicinal materials, causing different medicinal materials to resonate, intertwining to create effects that a single medicinal material could never have.
Half a day later.
Ling Han's expression was solemn, it was the most critical moment.
"Open!" He shouted softly, his hands moved countless times in an instant, and three flames were sprayed out.
Three Fires, this is his original secret technique.
He suddenly opened the furnace lid and saw five round blue pills in the furnace. But as the furnace lid opened, four of them shattered, leaving only the last one rising up. It seemed to be alive and trying to escape.
Ling Han quickly grabbed it and walked out of the black tower, intending to let it go through the calamity. However, standing in the yard, he still saw no sign of thunderclouds gathering.
Could it be that it was refined in the black tower and ignored by heaven and earth
"Meow!" A very angry cat meowed, and the big fat cat suddenly rushed over, waving its claws and clawing at Ling Han.
"Hey, hey, aren't we good friends?" Ling Han quickly dodged.
"Meow, meow, meow, meow!" the fat cat kept meowing.
"It said that it has been waiting for you for seven days, but you never showed up. Where is the meat that was promised?" Xiaota said.
The corner of Ling Han's mouth twitched slightly: "Can you still speak cat talk?"
"What can't I do?" Xiaota said arrogantly.
Ling Han was suddenly startled, seven days had actually passed
He grabbed the fat cat and said: "Okay, okay, I'll treat you to meat right away! Stop it, no, stop your paw, otherwise how can I get you something to eat?"
Only then did Sha Mao stop and sit down, looking reserved and arrogant.
Humans, you are my cat slaves!
