Chapter 27: Chapter 20

The alchemy peak.

 

Looking at the disciples in front of her, Elder Xiao sighed and said, “The theme for the test is healing. Anyone who can refine at least the basic stage, low grade healing elixir, can pass the test."

 

“Elder Xiao, May this disciple ask, what type of injury?” One of the new disciples asked.

 

"Because there are not many people participating this year, I will reduce the difficulty. Any kind of wound healing elixir will pass.” She said dispiritedly.

 

It seems that her wish to accept a good disciple this year has come to nothing. Alchemy is a very sought-after profession, but the difficulty of advancement in the Alchemy Dao itself can be said to be hundreds of times more difficult than other courses. That's because most of the recipes are gone, so the alchemists need to start over from scratch to work on their own recipes.

 

What's more, the success rate of refining the elixirs is very low, and the materials are also very rare and expensive. Therefore, although the alchemist could win high honors, there are not many disciples who are willing to choose this path. It's simply too hard, and needs a lot of money.

 

"The time limit for the test is 24 hours." Elder Xiao said before leaving.

 

As soon as Elder Xiao left the alchemy hall, the new disciples walked towards the alchemy room. Each room is equipped with an alchemy furnace, but the disciples need to prepare their own materials.

 

Yu Xinyue walked towards the corner room. The room is fifteen square meters, and there is an alchemy furnace in the center of the room. She walked towards the furnace and traced the surface of it. This furnace was a basic stage furnace with a high grade - level one.

 

For refining elixir, this furnace is indeed more than enough. But if she wants refined pills, the quality of this furnace is far inferior. It couldn’t sustain the impact from the spiritual qi when refining pills. Waving her hand, she placed the furnace at the corner of the room before taking out her own furnace.

 

Before joining the sect, she practiced blacksmithing inside her space and managed to forge a high stage, perfect grade furnace. She never uses this furnace because there are higher quality furnaces in her alchemy tower.

 

This furnace is small, only the size of a basketball. Only one recipe can be refined at a time, while a normal sized furnace can refine at least ten recipes at a time. However, the material she used to forge this furnace is a rare material. Although it is small in size, it can improve the quality and success rate of the pill.

 

With black iron and snow jade as the main materials, this furnace will create a wave if it was brought to the outside world. After taking out the furnace, she flicked her palm and a wisp of black fire floated in her palm. With a wave of her hand, she sent the black fire into the furnace to heat it up.

 

When she discovered the volcano in her own space, she got this immortal flame. The temperature of this fire can be said to be as high as the sun, or it can be said to be as cold as the eternal ice. Even now, she still can't completely control this black fire. It is as if the black fire is alive and has its own mind.

 

While waiting for the furnace to warm up, she prepared the ingredients for the snow rain pill. It could cure any inner injury while nourishing the body at the same time. The cool feeling after consuming it can ease the pain.

 

The material of this pill is easy to find because it uses common medicinal materials, there is no need to use high grade spiritual herbs. Her success rate in refining this pill is as high as 95%. So, this pill is the safest option for her to pass the exam and get first place.

 

Once the ingredients are ready, the furnace is already heated. Yu Xinyue sat cross-legged on the ground and meditated with the furnace in front of her. After adjusting her state of mind, she opened her eyes and stretched out her left palm. Following her movements, a spiritual qi rushed towards the furnace.

 

Bang!

 

With the sound, the furnace lid flew up. With a wave of her right hand, the first material flew towards the furnace. She used the palm of her hand to continuously transmit spiritual qi to control the black flame, and slowly refined the material.

 

The refining process is short due to the black fire and furnace. When the impurities disappeared and the material became liquid, she flicked her fingers and another material entered the furnace. She repeats the process until all the materials have been refined. She used her spiritual qi to wrap and separate the liquid materials inside the furnace, preventing the materials from coming into contact with each other.

 

She waved her hand and took out a wooden basin filled with the spring of life. Using her spiritual qi, she sent the water into the furnace.

 

Sszzzz…

When the spring of life came into contact with the liquid material, there was a sizzling sound. Yu Xinyue sent more spiritual qi to increase the furnace temperature. The black fire burned violently under her control. She unwrap her spiritual qi from the liquid materials one by one while combining it with the spring of life.

 

When all the liquid materials are successfully combined with the spring of life, the black liquid becomes pearly white. Sending out her palms one after another, her spiritual qi rushed towards the furnace.

 

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

 

The furnace shakes and spins in the air, while the lid retracts and seals the opening. Her sweat dripped to the ground, and her clothes hung tightly on her body. While controlling the black flame, she constantly sends her spiritual qi towards the liquid. The pearly white liquid in the furnace rippled and spun slowly. The material begins the forming process.

 

This is the crucial moment. The success or failure of the pill depends on this step. Thirty minutes later, she made hand gestures and a formation appeared in the air. She sent the formation into the furnace with both palms.

 

In the furnace, there are dozens of small rough pills floating. When the formation went inside, it embedded into each of the pills and the rough pills became smooth and shiny. After the formation went into the pills, Yu Xinyue gathered more spiritual qi and sent it into the furnace.

 

Boom!

 

With this wave of spiritual qi, the lid of the furnace was lifted, and the room was full of refreshing, sweet, and cooling fragrance. With a wave of the palm, the black fire retreated from the furnace and floated into her palm. After keeping the black fire into her spiritual sea, she stood up and walked towards the furnace. 

 

Looking inside the furnace, she pursed her lips and a satisfied smile appeared on her sweaty face. Counting the pills, she made seventy eight pills from one recipe. This result is by far the best she ever achieved when refining the snow rain pill.

 

Taking out the snow jade bottles from her space, she placed those pills in it. She filled four bottles, each of which can hold up to twenty pills. Thinking of her own test, she took out a small jade bottle and put a pill on it. She will use it for her test.

 

Walking out of the alchemy room, Yu Xinyue saw a girl in a blue robe standing at the door with her back facing her. When she was near that girl, she stopped a few steps behind her and called her with cupped fists, “Greetings, Senior sister.”

 

Hearing her words, that girl turned around and said, "Junior sister Yu, Congratulations on being the first person to pass the test."

 

"Thank you for your kind words, Senior sister." Yu Xinyue said with a smile.

 

“You can just give me the elixir that you refine, I will report it to ShiFu. The results will be announced on the third day.”

 

“Sorry for troubling you, Senior sister. This is the item that I refined. It’s called the Snow rain pill. It is used to treat internal injuries, nourish the body, and relieve pain." Yu Xinyue explained while handing over the small jade bottle.

 

"Alright. You can leave now." The girl said holding the jade bottle.

 

“Then I will take my leave now, Senior sister.” Yu Xinyue clasped her fists and left Alchemy Peak.

 

After she left, the girl looked at the small jade bottle.

 

‘Snow rain pill? Why did she call elixir a pill? Shouldn’t it be better to call Snow rain elixir?’

 

With this little doubt, she put away the jade bottle and continued to wait for the other disciples to come out. No matter what it is called, as long as the effect and grade meet the requirements, she believes that Junior sister Yu will definitely pass the test and claim the first place.
