Chapter 877 First Day at Work

Alex sat down in front of the formations and looked at the talisman in his hand.

The elders or someone of authority had gathered a list of pills that needed to be made, and of those, Alex was handed about 50 pills that needed to be made.

That basically meant that the elders expected him to make 3 pills an hour. That sort of requirement was nothing for Alex though.

'Fortunately, there are no saint pills here,' Alex thought.

There was a reason why he was so reluctant to make Saint pills. The main reason for that was the fact that making pills needed not only Qi and physical endurance, but also mental strength.

For Common and True rank pills, someone with spiritual sense would basically not notice the missing mental strength with pill they made because of how strong it would be anyway. It would take nearly hundreds of pills before they were mentally fatigued.

However, for Saint rank pills, one needed the mental strength of a Saint realm cultivation base. Even the starting saint realm cultivators had nearly twice as strong as Alex's current mental strength.

It meant that if he tried to make Saint rank pills, not only would his Qi have to suffer the burden of Saint rank materials, but his mind, which was half as bad, would also have to suffer alongside it.

So, he was waiting to make them.

It wasn't just Saint rank pills either. Both Saint rank formations plates and flags, as well as Saint rank talismans, required him to have an incredible mental fortitude, which he just didn't have by comparison.

Alex placed his cauldron on top of one of the many formations, and it hovered about 15 centimeters above the formation.

A fire lit under it on its own and Alex couldn't help but sigh slightly. The formations here were just way too helpful.

He didn't even need to do a lot of things aside from focusing on the ingredients themselves. The formations even helped regulate fire.

Alex shook his head and spoke, "I didn't wish to show it to you this way, but I have no choice. Look carefully at what I do, okay? Use your spiritual sense."

Whisker, that was sitting inside Alex's Black and Gold robe, nodded slightly.

"Alright, pay attention."

The first set of pills he had to make were those that would help True Lord realm cultivators break through to the True King realm with rather ease.

So, Alex started making the pill.

Since he was showing how it was done to Whisker, he didn't use any of his Dao, since Whisker wouldn't know how to use it.

He pulled the lid and placed the first ingredient. He felt the elder outside watching him make the pill, but he didn't care. He didn't care that she could see that Whisker had a cultivation base either.

A sect like this would obviously know about Spirit Cleansing Lily, and that was all Alex needed to tell them. Given that they had already searched everything he owned, they wouldn't ask him to fess up anything else either.

Once the first ingredient was inside, Alex started moving it around, following the recipe perfectly while making sure Whisker could see everything that had happened.

He had explained it all to him before, but seeing was better than just listening.

Whisker too was very curious about everything, so he watched everything Alex did. He remembered the recipe, what it meant, and what Alex was doing. He could see Alex was following the recipe perfectly, and before long all the ingredients had turned into power.

Alex then used Elemental Guidance to push whatever energy there was in the cauldron towards the powder, and then simply clumped it all together to form a single pill.

He didn't use his immortal pill-forming technique at all.

Making high-grade pills was fine and all, but he couldn't just start making pills that had 90% Harmony. If the Frozen Elders realized how good he was, they might end up imprisoning him forever, forcing him to make pills till the end of time.

He couldn't have that.

He needed to be just useful enough that they treated him well, and just bad enough that they don't think of him as something they absolutely needed to have.

The pill flew out and it was 63%. Given that the elders were interested in Heaven rank pills, this would be quite amazing in his eyes.

"Did you see?" Alex asked Whisker.

Whisker couldn't speak yet aside from making screeching noises. Given that he wasn't as full of potential as Pearl, he was likely not going to speak for a long time.

But he could think, and as such pass along information through his spiritual sense, which through their bond, Alex could understand.

"Good, you got it. Your job for today is to watch me work all day and memorize it all. Once that's over, you can sleep," Alex said and got to work.

65%. 62%. 59%. 60%.

Even though Alex wasn't giving it his all, and even though he felt that it was somewhat of a waste of ingredients, he was still certain that the elders would be happy with the result.

In the first hour, he managed to make 3 pills because he was slow and showed Whisker what needed to be done.

Starting with the second hour, however, the pills instantly jumped up to 5 an hour. If only he didn't need to make Heaven rank pills, he could've used the pill-splitting Qi to finish those 50 in almost no time at all.

Unfortunately, he had to spend the next 10 hours just making pills.

Whisker was tired by the end of the day and returned to his beast space to rest. Alex didn't say anything as he deserved it.

Alex took the pills and opened the door to greet the elder that stood outside.

"Here are the pills, elder," he said respectfully as he handed them over.

"Are you done with all 50?" the elder outside asked.

"Of course," Alex said. 'Didn't she look at me the entire time? I thought she was supposed to surveying me the entire time I worked.'

"What about Heaven grade? They all need to be Heaven grade, you know?" she said.

"Yes, they are all Heaven grade," Alex said.

"Really? How do you know? I didn't see you test any at all," the elder said.

'Ah, that's the problem,' Alex realized.

"I don't need to test them, elder. Those are pills I've been making forever and know them in and out. Still, if you think I need to test it, I can show you," he said and brought out a few pills.

One by one, he put the pills in the pill tester to show that they were all indeed heaven-grade pills.

"Oh, I see," the elder said. "They are indeed all in the Heaven rank. Although, why are you using such old devices? Those take forever to figure out how good your pill is. Use the testing formation inside the room or request for a better testing apparatus."

"Oh," Alex was surprised. He hadn't expected there to be different pill testers other than the one he was using. He didn't need one, but it was still convenient to have one.

"Thank you, elder," he said. "I'll keep that in mind."
