If the two methods weren’t too different, then Lin Yi wouldn’t have to worry about anything. Since the upgraded Shennong medicine cauldron could easily make golden class level Seven elixirs, he could naturally try Mystic class level one as well.
But if the two methods were very different, then he didn’t even need to try. Even if he let his disciple Qing Danzi try, the success rate would probably be much higher than his cheap master. In terms of pure alchemy skills, Qing Danzi was actually much stronger than Lin Yi, it was just that he didn’t have a godly tool like the Shennong medicine cauldron.
Zhuang Yifan didn’t want to disturb Lin Yi, but Lin Yi suddenly frowned and whispered,”Eh? Metal, wood, and earth elements?”
“What’s wrong? Did Master Lin notice any problems?” Zhuang Yifan’s heart skipped a beat as he asked.
“The problem isn’t that big of a problem …” Lin Yi shook his head, deep in thought.
Zhuang Yifan thought that Lin Yi didn’t have the confidence to make the earth strengthening pill, so he smiled apologetically.”The earth strengthening pill is too obscure. Even if Master Lin fails, it’s fine. It’s within reason. If even master Lin can’t make it, then it’s going to be tough for the others.”
He was afraid that Lin Yi would think it was too difficult and change his mind. After all, the earth strengthening pill was very rare, and even the mystic first level refiners might not be able to make it successfully. The demand for the earth strengthening pill was too low, and most of the refiners had never made it before, so no one could guarantee the success rate.
To Zhuang Yifan, success was not the most important thing-the most important thing was if there were any Mystic first level alchemists willing to help him. After all, as long as he started the furnace, even if he had never made it before, there was still a chance of success. If no one was willing to help, then there was no chance at all.
“Hehe, with President Zhuang’s words, I can rest assured.” Lin Yi only smiled, not denying it. In fact, his exclamation didn’t mean that it was impossible to make it, but he found a fundamental difference between Mystic and golden class.
As everyone knew, yellow-class elixirs had no special requirements for the alchemist’s spirit root attribute. As long as The Alchemist was of the same grade, they could refine it. However, this Mystic-class elixir was completely different. Not only did it have a higher requirement for the alchemist’s alchemy ability, but each Mystic-class elixir also had different attribute requirements.
Just like this earth strengthening pill, it required not only the most basic pill fire, but also the true Qi of the corresponding attribute of the materials to assist and harmonize. Metal, wood, and earth elements were indispensable, or else no matter how high the alchemy attainments were, the final step would not be completed.
Lin Yi nodded. Compared to the Golden class elixirs, the mystic class elixirs were much more complicated and detailed, and because each type of elixir had different requirements for the element of the spirit root, there was an extra difficult threshold. It was likely that many first level Mystic class refiners only knew how to make a few elixirs, and couldn’t do anything about the other elixirs with different elements.
Lin Yi didn’t know the full story-Mystic elixirs did have attribute requirements, but the threshold wasn’t set in stone. One had to know that to become a Mystic refiner, one had to master a high-level skill, which was to simulate all the elements “base Qi during the process.
This was the only way to meet the requirements for most Mystic elixirs. Otherwise, if one’s spiritual roots were pure, then more than half of the mystic elixirs would be lost. Take the earth strengthening pill for example. One had to have metal, wood, earth, and fire spiritual roots at the same time, and they had to be a Mystic Alchemist. How many people could you find in the world?
Only by mastering the high-level technique of simulating the basic attributes of true Qi of all elements at the same time could one meet the threshold of refining most Mystic elixirs. Otherwise, it would be nonsense.
This was a required course for Mystic alchemists-if they couldn’t master this high level technique, then they’d never be able to become a Mystic-no matter how experienced they were, it was a natural chasm between a golden class and a Mystic class. Many golden class seventh level alchemists couldn’t cross it in their entire lives, and could only look at it and sigh.
In fact, it wasn’t just Mystic class alchemists-many golden class alchemists had similar techniques as well. Boss Bai once said that as long as they used the corresponding incantation, they could achieve the effect of simulating the refinement fire. For example, alchemists who didn’t have Water-type spiritual roots could also simulate the Water-type refinement fire, but this technique could only simulate one element-it was impossible to simulate all elements at the same time. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
This was like how even primary school students could easily master mathematical operations, but could only be afraid of advanced mathematics. The two skills seemed to be similar in essence, but in fact, there was a huge threshold that was difficult to cross.
And if it was just a single simulation, it obviously couldn’t meet the requirements for refining Mystic-class elixirs. How could a single simulation deal with the multiple attributes of a random one?
If other people wanted to become a Mystic, they would have to master this first class, but Lin Yi was an exception.
He had never even heard of it before, so he naturally didn’t know this high-level technique. However, he didn’t need this high-level technique at all, because he himself was a freak with an eight-elemental spirit root attribute. He could naturally meet more than 90% of the refining conditions of the profound level medicinal pill. This threshold that made others feel fear was simply not the same to him.
Although Zhuang Yifan was a master in the late stage of earth-opening, he wasn’t an Alchemist. Naturally, he didn’t know the ins and outs of this. He let out a breath of relief when he saw Lin Yi’s attitude. No matter what, as long as Lin Yi was willing to help, it was good.
“Regardless of whether we succeed or not, I would like to thank Master Lin in advance. I’ve already instructed people to prepare a banquet to welcome Master Lin back. As for the matter of refining the pills, there’s no need to rush. Master Lin, you can take a good rest first.” Although Zhuang Yifan was very anxious, he did not dare to urge him. Instead, he acted very understanding. “You’ve just come out from your journey as a Big Shot and you’ve just fought with zang Zili. I’m sure you’re tired, right?”
“Hehe, then I’ll have to trouble President Zhuang. I’ll be there tonight.” Lin Yi smiled faintly and didn’t mention the last question. He didn’t want to piss Zhuang Yifan off if he told him the truth, so it was better to keep a low profile.
If it were anyone else, they would have been exhausted by now. However, he had the Jade space to cheat. Endurance was his absolute strength. Even Zhuang Yifan, who was at the late stage of the earth-opening realm, might not be able to beat him. (To be continued.) ”
