Chapter 862: Chapter 867: Three Batches of Elixirs (Part 1)
Lin Xi’s ability to make pills was taught to him by the old man since childhood.
The old man claimed that this was also to give him a bit of survival ability for when he was thrown into a perilous forest alone.
After all, when injured, finding some herbs to refine into pills would be quite effective.
Back then, Lin Xi didn’t believe it and thought, "Why didn’t you refine some for me in advance when you threw me in there?"
Hmph, it was clearly just the old man being lazy.
As for now, using an iron pot for alchemy and natural gas to provide high temperatures seems like a bizarre method, since in everyone’s impression, alchemy surely requires a pill furnace and specialized firewood.
But for Lin Xi, where can he find those things now?
Besides, for everyone, pill refining is just a deceptive trick used by Daoists.
Even the Shangguan family doesn’t have any concept of pill refining.
Also, for him, when he was with the old man at Yunlong Mountain, the old man also used an iron pot to refine.
So now, he looks very proficient.
When all the spiritual objects in the iron pot had melted into liquid, Lin Xi opened the medicine packet wrapped by Elder Xiang and slowly poured it in.
After everything was poured in, he covered it with a decently sealed lid.
Throughout the process, the hand he placed near the flame to provide True Qi didn’t move at all.
But ten minutes passed, and he appeared unchanged.
Normally, he would be sweating profusely, or even pale, but the pills refined at that time didn’t require such a long time.
After all, spiritual objects from the Secret Realm are impossible to find in the outside world.
About half an hour later, Lin Xi, who had been motionless, suddenly let out a light hum and abruptly withdrew his hand from near the flame.
"It’s done!"
He still felt a bit uneasy, after all, it was his first time using such excellent spiritual objects.
Whether it succeeded or failed, he couldn’t be certain.
Only by opening the lid could he find out.
When he carefully opened the lid, a strange fragrance immediately wafted out, and a mist enveloped the inside of the pot.
Smelling it, his face lit up with joy, "Success!"
"And the product should be quite good!"
A few seconds later, after the mist dissipated, Lin Xi saw at the bottom of the pot, half a pot of medicinal liquid had turned into about dozens of yellow pills the size of two soybeans.
This was quite astonishing!
To know that half a pot of medicinal liquid, roughly estimated, weighed at least seven or eight pounds.
Seven or eight pounds of liquid, boiled down to dozens of pills in about an hour.
Needless to say, it was highly concentrated.
Moreover, the surface of the pills was extremely smooth, like a shining mirror, and the roundness was startling, like a work of art.
From the first glance, it was incredibly extraordinary.
Indeed, it was extraordinary.
Lin Xi thought to himself, "This should be considered the best batch of pills I’ve ever made!"
He took out a pre-prepared porcelain bottle from the Jade Pendant Space, and after putting all the pills from the pot into it, he found a total of sixty pills.
And he attached a small paper label with writing on it.
On it was written: Qi Storage Pill.
This pill greatly aids the cultivation of people below the Innate level.
In terms of function, it is slightly weaker than a small piece of Spirit Stone.
But this pill is easy to absorb, unlike the cumbersome Spirit Stone, and the Spirit Stone can only be used without waste by Soldier King and Innate level people.
Next, he refined the second pot.
With the second pot, he became much more proficient, and the time spent was about ten minutes less than before.
When he opened the lid, it was the same situation as before.
However, the pills lying quietly at the bottom of the pot were red, somewhat resembling the Red Fire Pill he had given to Su Qiaoqiao previously.
But these pills were not Red Fire Pills, they were called Bone Refining Pills.
The Bone Refining Pill is countless times more precious than the Red Fire Pill, because the Red Fire Pill only suppresses yin and cold aura, while the Bone Refining Pill, as its name suggests, its function is not only to refine bones, but more importantly, it tempers the meridians.
It’s actually refining muscles and bones!
This kind of pill is extremely precious even in cultivation novels.
He put all the Bone Refining Pills into a porcelain bottle, totaling seventy-two pills.
It seemed the condition was much better than the last time refining, so if nothing goes wrong, the next batch should go even more smoothly.
As expected, although the last pot took about the same time as the second, he felt more adept, and there were no mistakes in the process.
Opening the pot, a fragrant aroma wafted out, and when the dense mist dissipated, dozens of smooth green pills appeared before his eyes.
All placed into a porcelain bottle, this time it was the most pills refined in three batches, totaling eighty-eight pills.
These green pills are called Small Returning Pills.
Anyone below Innate level can instantly recover to peak state from weakness or severe injuries, with no side effects, even an Innate powerhouse can recover one-third of their True Qi by taking one.
Of course, for someone like Lin Xi with immense True Qi inside, these pills are of no use to him.
In fact, none of these three kinds of pills are of any use to him.
But they are useful for his group of women and subordinates.
Additionally, these days, he plans to cultivate the fourth needle of the Nine Divine Needles of Heaven-Reversing, the Hundred Days Foundation Establishment.
Hundred Days Foundation Establishment means that a single needle can elevate an unskilled person to Soldier King Realm within a hundred days, and be a solid Soldier King powerhouse, without any side effects.
Of course, if the person being needled has strong abilities already, they wouldn’t need a hundred days.
Previously he didn’t have the Hundred Days Foundation Establishment formula and Heart Method, but he got lucky recently and acquired them at a low price at an auction.
At that time, he wanted to practice it.
But with his then ability, even if he learned, he couldn’t perform it.
To transform an ordinary person into a Soldier King within a hundred days, for those who took twenty to thirty years to reach Soldier King, it is undoubtedly too exaggerated.
And reaching Soldier King Realm in twenty to thirty years is considered having exceptional talent.
Generally, Soldier Kings are over fifty years old.
So after mastering the fourth needle, he would elevate all his women to Soldier King Realm.
But reaching Soldier King Realm doesn’t mean they possess Soldier King’s strength.
This is like Bai Bing, who has reached the special force level, but her actual combat power is only stronger than ordinary people.
Therefore, they need to learn certain combat skills, then hone their Fist Skill through real combat, to achieve corresponding fighting power.
At this time, he walked out of the kitchen.
As soon as the kitchen door opened, Bai Bing and Mengmeng seemed to smell something delicious, and looked at Lin Xi with confusion.
Mengmeng even asked, "Daddy, what delicious thing have you made again?"
Lin Xi was taken aback, "Made what?"
He noticed Bai Bing also looked at him with suspicion upon hearing his words, and immediately slapped his head realizing that the scent of pills in the kitchen wafted out the moment the door opened.
So he said, "Calling it delicious is fair, do you want to try?"
The next moment, two porcelain bottles appeared in his hand.
