Two-line perfect pill, a terrifying method of spiritual advancement!

Jiang Qing put away the System panel and went to the Martial Arts Cultivation Room on the second floor to try his hand at Alchemy.

A short while later, accompanied by a refreshing fragrance, the Medicinal Pills were ready.

There were a total of nine Medicinal Pills, three of which had a Cloud Pill on top. These three Medicinal Pills emitted a richer fragrance and glowed with a pearly white light.

Most astonishingly, one of the Medicinal Pills clearly displayed two Cloud Pills, signifying that most of the Impurities within the Medicinal Pill had been removed. After consumption, its effects would be far superior to Medicinal Pills without Cloud Pills, and with minimal Impurities, it wouldn't leave much residual medicinal toxicity in the body.

The ability of a Medicinal Pill to develop Cloud Pills indicates that it has very few Impurities and outstanding medicinal efficacy. Such Medicinal Pills are already perfect Medicinal Pills, surpassing ordinary ones.

The more perfect a Medicinal Pill, the more Cloud Pills it possesses. Medicinal Pills capable of producing Cloud Pills are significantly more valuable in the market than ordinary Medicinal Pills.

A one-Cloud Pill already increases the original base value of a Medicinal Pill by half, while a two-Cloud Pill, a level higher, can double its value.

"A two-Cloud Pill right out of the cauldron! The Spiritual Ascension Art is indeed a top-tier Alchemy Art, worthy of being refined by an Eight-Rank Alchemist."

Jiang Qing clicked his tongue in amazement.

Before he had the Spiritual Ascension Art, the Medicinal Pills he refined rarely had two-Cloud Pills. Even with the memories of a Four-Rank Peak Alchemist for a year, he couldn't achieve the quality of two-Cloud Medicinal Pills.

Medicinal Pills of this Rank are rare in the market and are considered perfect Medicinal Pills.

Refining Medicinal Pills with Cloud Pills is not just about diligent practice; like a Martial Arts Realm, an Alchemist must have his own understanding of Alchemy and thoroughly comprehend the refining method of a Medicinal Pill to achieve it.

Anyone who can refine two-Cloud Medicinal Pills is undoubtedly a Genius Alchemist. Such Genius Alchemists are rarely seen in ordinary small cities.

Two-Cloud Medicinal Pills are very rare in Jiangcheng's market; even if they appear, they are usually obtained from ruins and not refined by humans.

Whoosh!

Jiang Qing activated the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire, making it surge, and continued refining Medicinal Pills by throwing Spirit Medicine into the Alchemy Cauldron one by one.

Wave after wave of Medicinal Pills emerged, their refreshing fragrance permeating the Martial Arts Cultivation Room.

Nearly half of the Medicinal Pills produced in each batch were one-Cloud Medicinal Pills. With good luck, one or two two-Cloud quality Medicinal Pills could appear in a single batch. Even if some Medicinal Pills didn't have Cloud Pills, their internal Impurities were still less than ordinary Medicinal Pills, making them fine products.

During the Alchemy process, as long as the Spiritual Ascension Art is used, the quality of the refined Medicinal Pills can be greatly improved, and residual Impurities within the Medicinal Pills can be removed as much as possible.

And this is only the effect of Jiang Qing's initial mastery of the Spiritual Ascension Art. If he can skillfully apply the Spiritual Ascension Art, it is likely that every Medicinal Pill will be at least a one-Cloud Medicinal Pill, or even a two-Cloud Medicinal Pill...

"The focus of future deployments must be on Cultivating the Spiritual Ascension Art. If I can refine Medicinal Pills with a Cloud Pill, their medicinal properties can be perfectly preserved over two tens of thousands of years."

"With such Medicinal Pills, why worry about not improving my Martial Dao Cultivation? Consuming Medicinal Pills crazily, breaking through one Rank a day wouldn't be a problem."

Having experienced the terrifying effects of the Spiritual Ascension Art, Jiang Qing already had ideas for the next few days' deployments.

The medicinal properties of the Medicinal Pills obtained in previous deployments had been lost, and even if there were one-Cloud and two-Cloud Medicinal Pills among them, their medicinal properties could not be preserved for a long time; after two tens of thousands of years, most of their medicinal properties would be lost.

However, there is one type of Medicinal Pill that can withstand the passage of time and maintain its medicinal properties forever: a Medicinal Pill above the three-Cloud Medicinal Pill, a truly perfect Medicinal Pill, a Medicinal Pill that condenses a Cloud Pill.

Cloud Pills can preserve the medicinal properties of Medicinal Pills for a long time, but ten thousand years are enough to erode the Cloud Pills.

A Cloud Pill, however, can absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to self-refine the Medicinal Pill. Unless the Cloud Pill shatters, the Medicinal Pill can exist permanently, and its medicinal efficacy can gradually improve under the nourishment of the Cloud Pill.

Ten thousand years will not only prevent its medicinal properties from being lost but may also cause it to absorb enough Spiritual Qi to refine and upgrade.

Medicinal Pills with a Cloud Pill have eternal medicinal properties and are completely free of Impurities, allowing any Martial Artist to consume them without causing an unstable Foundation.

If Jiang Qing could refine Medicinal Pills with a Cloud Pill, he could consume them freely to quickly Breakthrough Realms, returning to the Cultivation speed of breaking through one Realm a day during his Martial Artist period.

With thoughts flashing through his mind, Jiang Qing continued Alchemy, skillfully applying the Spiritual Ascension Art.

Jiang Qing continued Alchemy until late at night, stopping only when he felt Mental Energy fatigue.

Once his Mental Energy recovered somewhat, Jiang Qing began to Cultivate the Expanding Spirit Art to quickly increase his Mental Energy reserves.

Immersed in Cultivation, time passed quickly.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already the second day.

After eating breakfast, Jiang Qing's body and mind had reached their Peak state.

"Deploy!"

"Deployment Target: Jiang Qing."

"Deployment World: Battlefield of the Heavens."

"Deployment Time: Ancient Era."

"Duration: One year."

"Deployment Conditions: For one year, remain detached from worldly affairs, join the Civilization Saint Hall to certify your Alchemist identity, and use the resources provided by the Civilization Saint Hall to focus on Alchemy, becoming proficient in the Spiritual Ascension Art."

"Deployment Starting..."

"Ancient Era, you concealed your identity and joined the Civilization Saint Hall. After certifying your Alchemist identity, you began to focus on Alchemy using the medicinal materials provided by the Civilization Saint Hall..."

"Six months passed, and your application of the Spiritual Ascension Art became more proficient. Ordinary Medicinal Pills without Cloud Pills rarely appeared in a batch..."

"Twelve months passed, and you had engraved the application method of the Spiritual Ascension Art into your heart. Every batch of Medicinal Pills you refined was at least a one-Cloud Medicinal Pill, and there was a chance to refine three-Cloud Medicinal Pills..."

"Deployment Ended, Calculating..."

...

The deployment ended, and memories flooded his mind.

Jiang Qing quickly adapted to the memory of a year spent solely on Alchemy. After a year of dedicated Cultivation of the Spiritual Ascension Art, Jiang Qing was already proficient in its application.

He could effortlessly ensure that none of the Medicinal Pills he produced were of ordinary quality; they were all at least one-Cloud Medicinal Pills.

Through the Spiritual Ascension Art, Jiang Qing had already refined extremely perfect three-Cloud Medicinal Pills, just one step away from true perfection: the condensation of three Cloud Pills into a Cloud Pill.

He summoned the Purple Lightning Profound Cauldron, and the medicinal materials were placed in order to melt into liquid.

In less than 10 minutes, accompanied by a wisp of clear fragrance, the Medicinal Pills formed.

A batch of Medicinal Pills was entirely composed of fine products with Cloud Pills, and some of these Medicinal Pills even had their Rank improved.

Originally a First-Rank Medicinal Pill, it was promoted to a Second-Rank Medicinal Pill at the moment it was produced, after being refined by the Spiritual Ascension Art.

Jiang Qing tried refining a few more batches of Medicinal Pills, and during this time, he produced one three-Cloud Medicinal Pill.

At this stage, the Medicinal Pill was only a hair's breadth away from condensing a Cloud Pill. Jiang Qing's only lacking element was his own understanding of the Dao of Alchemy.

He had only reached the Four-Rank Peak Alchemist, and this level was insufficient for him to refine Medicinal Pills with a Cloud Pill.

He needed to possess a sufficient amount of pharmacological knowledge and experience in refining higher-Rank Medicinal Pills to integrate his Alchemy experience, gain his own understanding, and ultimately refine Cloud Pills.

This cannot be rushed. Jiang Qing's first priority is to memorize the refining method of a Medicinal Pill, and only then can he potentially refine perfect Medicinal Pills.

Following the Pill Formula from his memory, Jiang Qing began to refine Blood Quenching Pills.

Blood Quenching Pill, a general-purpose Medicinal Pill for Martial Artists, can accelerate the Cultivation of Qi and blood.

After evaluating various Medicinal Pills, Jiang Qing ultimately decided to specialize in the Blood Quenching Pill because it is applicable to various Martial Artist Realms, from First-Rank to Eighth-Rank Blood Quenching Pills exist, making it an indispensable auxiliary Medicinal Pill for Martial Artist Cultivation.

The Pill Formulas for Blood Quenching Pills from First-Rank to Eighth-Rank do not differ significantly. While the medicinal materials vary, the refining method is the same. Therefore, as long as Jiang Qing can refine a Blood Quenching Pill with a Cloud Pill, he can apply that understanding to fully comprehend all Blood Quenching Pills from First-Rank to Eighth-Rank.

By then, as long as his Mental Energy is sufficient, he will be able to refine Blood Quenching Pills of any Rank, and every single one will be a top-grade Medicinal Pill with a condensed Cloud Pill.

The fact that Blood Quenching Pills are universally applicable to Martial Artists of all Realms means that sales will not be a concern. Jiang Qing also needs Blood Quenching Pills for his Martial Artist Cultivation. Alchemy and the Martial Dao do not interfere with each other; simultaneous progress in both is Jiang Qing's long-planned future strategy.
