BXBX NOVEL Chapter 204: Starting to do alchemy
"It would be better to substitute them with a double portion of some Fire Herb or some Green, Pink, or even Brown Leaf Lotus Herb. Even with a Purifying Herb, the pill would look better, even if the quality is reduced." He said and then looked among the herbs for a moment.
"But the truth is, we don\'t have to go that far. If the poisonous herbs are not that expensive and we want to maintain the high efficacy of their healing abilities, then we can simply add this spiritual herb and everything would be solved." Tang Yin said as he pointed to the herb he had earlier discarded from the other recipe.
"The fire of some spiritual herbs is so special; it can burn away the poison of others. This spiritual herb can fulfill that function as long as enough of them are added. The cost shouldn\'t be too high either, as it is easy to cultivate this spiritual herb." Tang Yin said, culminating what he meant with a calm smile on his face.
Both elders frowned slightly as they processed this information.
\'Is it real?\' They thought to themselves in confusion as they tried to make sense of what he was saying.
No matter how they looked at it, he seemed very convincing, and his words made sense, but they could not prove that what he said was correct unless they prepared the pill.
Therefore, they stared at each other and nodded.
"Young man, we can\'t tell if your words are real or not without proving it, but we won\'t deny the fact that you are a genius for so easily recognizing what each of these spirit herbs are for. Normally we would have to take an exam to prove it, but we\'ll skip that part." Said one of them and then brought back other trays with different spiritual herbs and passed them to Tang Yin.
"If you can make these pills, we will give you recognition as a noble-grade alchemist. And we will talk to the Leader to give you the status of King in the association. You will be a High-Grade Elder in the entire continent." Said the elder, and Tang Yin was surprised by this.
Not only he, the two next to him were also surprised and looked at the elders in shock.
\'Handing over the status of a high-level elder to a young man?\' They thought in shock.
Tang Yin looked at the spirit herbs and smiled a little, \'So the tests are not over.\' Tang Yin thought with a smile as he nodded back at him.
"Alright, I accept. You don\'t mind if I use one of the furnaces here, do you?" Tang Yin asked with a smile, and they both nodded.
"You can use anyone. We\'ll be watching you." Replied the elder, and Tang Yin then walked to where one was nearby.
\'It\'s always good to deal with people who don\'t despise.\' Tang Yin thought as he ordered the spiritual herbs.
\'These herbs are in very bad shape and the number of years is totally wrong. With this they want me to make fourth realm base building pills, spiritual energy pills, and recovery pills...\' Tang Yin thought and nodded slightly to himself.
\'Two kinds of basic pills to recover and one to build the base... It\'s not that complicated to do it even if they are in this state, but... Well, let\'s try the ability that the system had given me before since I\'m in this situation.\' Tang Yin thought and looked to the side at the system.
[Automatic Pill Enhancement]
| Level 1.
| Active Skill.
| Once activated, the pills you make will increase in quality by one star. The higher the level of the skill, the more the pills you make will receive an increase.
| Once activated, no pill will fail, they will all be created.
| It is a skill with a high consumption of spiritual energy.
He had previously reviewed this ability, so he simply activated it in his mind, and soon his spiritual energy began to be drained as it was activated.
Following that, Tang Yin began to make different spiritual arrays with his fingers on different parts of the furnace and the floor with great agility and speed.
He moved back and forth for a moment, while making spiritual arrays of great difficulty that surprised everyone who saw him.
\'This kid also knows spiritual arrays? Not only is he a genius in alchemy, one of those rarely seen in this world, but he also knows so many strange arrays...\' Thought the two elders in shock as they watched this.
For some reason, when they both saw those spiritual arrays, they felt that they were far beyond Tang Yin\'s ability.
Those spiritual arrays gave him a frightening feeling, so they looked at the elder who brought him here.
"Tell me everything you know about him." Said one of them, and Ma Feng nodded as he began to tell him what little he knew.
Meanwhile, Tang Yin had finished setting things up.
\'If no pill fails and they all receive a 1 star increase in quality, if I add these spiritual arrays could I increase two stars? Could I create 3-star pills, with the effort of creating 1-star pills?\' Tang Yin thought with a smile.
He wanted his understanding of this skill to be correct because if it was... It would save a lot of time creating pills.
Therefore, Tang Yin quickly started alchemy.
The first thing he did was to light his alchemical fire and send it into the furnace while grabbing the spiritual herbs from one of the trays.
He looked them over for a moment and then simply threw them all together into the spiritual furnace at once.
This surprised those behind him, "What the heck? He threw them all in?\' they thought to themselves in shock as they looked at each other.
Now they were beginning to question if this guy was really an alchemist, who in their right mind would choose that path to make pills?
The probability of failing was incredibly high!
Even more so if he was missing an arm!
But Tang Yin didn\'t care about their reactions, instead, he did something that was destined to surprise them even more...
Tang Yin grabbed all the sets of spiritual herbs and threw them into the furnace directly.
"PUFFF!" At that moment, the two elders spat out all the tea they had drunk in the morning from the shock this created in them.
"What the hell is he doing!?" one of them shouted angrily, "Is he crazy? There\'s no way he\'s an alchemist!" he shouted again angrily.
He wasn\'t the only one, even the lady who was present on the side watching all this, knew that this didn\'t make sense.
Although she didn\'t have much idea about alchemy, she knew that it\'s impossible to make pills when you\'re mixing so many spiritual herbs for different recipes.
It\'s the most basic and universal principle of alchemy.
So, what the heck is he doing, mixing so many spiritual herbs in one furnace?
\'If he doesn\'t know alchemy, what is he planning?\' she thought in confusion.
But Tang Yin didn\'t care about this either, and although he was hearing the shouts of those two elders behind him saying weird things, he paid no attention to it.
On the contrary, he summoned one of his spiritual bones and moved it to the side of the furnace.
\'I should be able to use this as a hand with my mind...\' Tang Yin thought as he nimbly moved this spiritual bone and shocked everyone present again...
