The price of a "one-star alchemist" skill book in the system mall is 500 points of pretentiousness.
Although it is very expensive, it is worth it because it has a 100% chance of refining a one-star elixir.
This probability means that you will never fail to refine the elixir, and you will never make a useless elixir!
In the world of cultivating immortals, although one-star alchemists are the lowest level existences, their numbers are still rare and their identities are extremely precious. However, no one can guarantee that they can successfully refine one-star elixirs 100% of the time, even Alchemists who have reached the level of five or six stars will sometimes fail to refine the simplest one-star elixir, or the elixir yield rate will be reduced if they are distracted.
There once was a nine-star alchemist who was helping his apprentice refine one-star elixirs. There was a slight flaw in the heat control. As a result, when he opened the elixir furnace, only half of the elixirs were completed and the other half were waste elixirs. The result still made everyone feel that Extremely admired.
Because this is a normal phenomenon, even a nine-star alchemist cannot 100% dare to say that he can succeed in the first try!
But after Xu Que has these skill books, he can achieve 100% success without even spending time practicing. The gap is very obvious.
Therefore, when Xu Que saw the "Two-Star Alchemist" skill book sold in the system mall, he had a true expression on his face.
[Two-star alchemist skill book]:
After using it, you will advance to the status of a two-star alchemist, and you will have a 100% chance of refining two-star elixirs!
Price: 1500 pretense value.
"Oh shit!"
The corner of Xu Que's mouth twitched fiercely. Compared with the skill book of a one-star alchemist, the two-star skill book was a thousand points more expensive.
But with gritted teeth, Xu Que still bought the "Two-Star Alchemist" skill book.
Because the "Shen Yang Pill" and "Blood Yuan Pill" needed to overcome the tribulation are two-star level pills, which are extremely precious!
Xu Que knew about the Nourishing Pill. Sun Jueli of Tianwuzong could order the master of the Yingui Sect to massacre the village with just one Nourishing Pill.
The Blood Essence Pill is an elixir that can restore Qi and blood and instantly heal injuries. For a strong person in the Nascent Soul Stage, possessing a Blood Essence Pill is almost equivalent to having a second life.
That's why Su Ling'er paid special attention to these two elixirs when she participated in the Thunder Tribulation Sacrifice.
One can repair the soul, and the other can restore Qi and blood. They are indeed important to her, but they are also important to Xu Que.
Xu Que didn't know how difficult the catastrophe he would face when the time came, and he didn't know whether the "invigorating armor" could last until the end. Therefore, he felt it was necessary to prepare some elixirs for himself.
But it's not the "Nourishment Pill" and "Xueyuan Pill", but another extremely rare magic pill!
After all, he can rely on stinky tofu to restore his soul power, and he can rely on the system's automatic recovery function for his energy and blood.
So what he wanted to refine was the "Tai Qing Lightning Protection Pill" sold in the mall!
[Tai Qing Lightning Protection Pill]:
Two-star level. It is a magical elixir inherited from ancient times. After taking it, it can enhance the toughness of the physical body, reduce the damage caused by lightning disasters, and use the power of thunder to temper the physical body.
Price: 200 points of pretentiousness.
…
This kind of elixir also comes from this world of immortal cultivation, but it has almost been lost.
The price of just one "Tai Qing Lightning Protection Pill" in the mall is as high as 200 points of pretentiousness.
But the recipe for "Tai Qing Lightning Protection Pill" has a thousand points of pretentiousness.
It was impossible for Xu Que to survive only one catastrophe in his life, so he directly chose to buy the elixir recipe without much hesitation.
Including the "Two-star Alchemist" skill book just now, Xu Que spent 2,500 points of pretentiousness in one breath, which was a huge hemorrhage.
But he doesn't regret or feel bad. After all, no matter how much pretense is worth, it is ultimately to make himself stronger.
This time, he had a feeling that the catastrophe would not be easy, so the "Tai Qing Lightning Protection Pill" had to be refined, and coupled with the inspiring armor, everything would be considered adequate.
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for using the 'Two-star Alchemist Skill Book' and being successfully promoted to a two-star Alchemist!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for using the 'Tai Qing Lightning Protection Pill Recipe' and successfully mastering the refining method of this pill!"
…
Feeling a large amount of new knowledge and information pouring into his mind, Xu Que lay on his bed with a smile on his lips.
At this time, the effect of his disguised puppet had timed out, and the system began to deduct 1 point of pretentiousness points every hour. Xu Que didn't bother to pay attention, slowly closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep!
"Dong dong~"
"Boom!"
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Que woke up from a knock on the door.
With his sleepy eyes open, he waved his hand gently, and the wooden door opened automatically.
"Sun Wukong, come with me quickly..."
As soon as the door opened, Yun'er's anxious voice came over, but it seemed that she got stuck just halfway through.
Yun'er stood at the door dumbfounded, looking at Xu Que's extremely "luxurious" room, completely stunned and speechless.
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully pretending to be cool, you will be rewarded with fifty points of pretending!"
As soon as he heard the system prompt sound in his mind, Xu Que immediately became energetic.
This guy is so cool, Yun'er must be so handsome when I wake up from my sleep, right
"Yun'er, what's wrong? Where are you going? Can we eat now?" Xu Que said happily.
Yun'er didn't answer, but looked at the furnishings in the room with disbelief, and finally said with envy: "Sun Wukong, where did you get these things? They look so good..."
Xu Que's expression suddenly froze. It turned out that these furniture were showing off!
But it’s not a loss. All the furniture together only cost two or three points of pretense. Now it’s fifty points, which is definitely a profit!
He narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Do you like it? It's okay. When I leave in two days, I will give them all to you."
"Wow, is it true?" Yun'er was immediately overjoyed, and her eyes were filled with brilliance.
"Of course, I, Xu... I, the Monkey King, always keep my word. I can easily get thousands of sets of this kind of furniture. It's absolutely trivial to give you a set." Xu Que said generously.
"That's great, thank you, Sun Wukong." Yun'er was very excited.
"Wait, it's okay to give you furniture, but you have to agree to one condition!"
"What conditions?"
"Call me the Great Sage from now on!" Xu Que said with full force.
Yun'er immediately smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, great sage, great sage, equal to the sky..."
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully pretending to be cool. You will be rewarded with 40 points of pretending!"
Xu Que showed a sincere smile of satisfaction, he had made another profit this time!
"By the way, I almost forgot. Come with me to the alchemy room quickly, otherwise Xiaoyu will lose her temper again." At this time, Yun'er suddenly remembered the business and urged her hurriedly.
"Yes, alchemy!"
When Xu Que looked at the sky outside, he realized that it was already the next morning, so he hurriedly jumped down from the bed.
It’s the first time in your life to make alchemy, so don’t delay!
