73: Entering the cold pool again

Hearing Dark Moon's words, Chu Yuan's eyes couldn't help but slightly brighten. It was actually Alchemist's Insights?

If he could become an Alchemist, he would be able to utilize those Spirit Medicine better.

Besides, having multiple skills never hurt.

Just then, Dark Moon's voice continued to sound.

"You try it first. If you can't condense Pill Fire, we will figure out another way to solve the flame issue for your cooking."

Hearing this, Chu Yuan's eyes brightened once more. "Big Sister Dark Moon, do you have other methods?"

"Try condensing Pill Fire first!"

Dark Moon shook her head.

Immediately, she lowered her head and continued eating her skewers, seemingly not planning to say more.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan put the book into the primal origin space and likewise ate the roasted meat in his hand.

Before long.

After the three of them finished the roasted meat in their hands, You Lian glanced at Chu Yuan. "Next time, roast a bit more and save some for us too."

Before Chu Yuan could speak, Dark Moon shook her head and said, "You Lian, don't make things difficult for him. He can't keep it!"

Hearing this, You Lian instantly realized and shook her head. "That's true!"

As her voice fell, the two of them vanished.

Chu Yuan blinked. Thinking of Ye Qingyi's appearance just now, he seemed to understand something.

He slightly shook his head, turned, and walked into the inner room, lying down on the bed.

Afterward, a wisp of consciousness entered the primal origin space, and his gaze fell upon the Alchemist's Insights book.

He first copied a version, throwing the copy back into his sumeru ring.

Following that, he reinforced the original copy.

This was his usual practice when learning the contents of these books!

Only needing to reinforce it once, even if it didn't correct all the errors in the book, it could correct ninety-nine percent of them.

In this way, the things he learned would also be the most authentic.

After reinforcing it, Chu Yuan opened the book and began studying its contents... On the other side.

Ye Qingyi sat upon the palace throne, her expression thoughtful.

A moment later, she took out a communication jade and transmitted a message outwards.

"Little Brother? I imagine you will like the gift I prepared for you, right?"

She murmured softly, but the trace of mischief in her eyes made people feel she harbored ill intentions... Over on Chu Yuan's side.

It didn't take him much time to finish reading the Alchemist's Insights.

Overall, the Alchemist's Insights contained a method for condensing Pill Fire.

As well as two first-grade Pill Formula, one second-grade Pill Formula, and one third-grade Pill Formula.

The rest were some of this Alchemist's Alchemy insights, and some self-indulgence.

Of course, Chu Yuan also learned the rules for advancing in the skill of Alchemy from it:

Only by condensing first-grade Pill Fire and using first-grade Pill Fire to refine a first-grade Medicinal Pill could one be considered to have advanced to a first-grade Alchemist!

Only by using first-grade Pill Fire to refine Medicinal Pill and allowing the Pill Fire to absorb enough medicinal properties of the Medicinal Pill could one condense second-grade Pill Fire.

And so on.

This was slightly different from Formation.

The Formation skill required condensing first-grade Formation talismans and using them to set up a first-grade Formation to be considered advancing to a first-grade Formations Master.

As for the latter requirement, it was absent, which counted as a difference.

After reading the insights, Chu Yuan discovered a practical problem: using these insights to become a first-grade Alchemist might be difficult.

After all, it could be seen from these insights that the quantity of a Spirit Medicine's medicinal properties greatly affected the success of the Medicinal Pill.

It could be said that a slight deviation could lead to a massive failure!

Yet Chu Yuan had almost no familiarity with the medicinal properties of various Spirit Medicine. How could he control the crucial elements?

Alchemy was not the same as cooking; compared to the latter, the former required much greater precision.

Understanding this, Chu Yuan stopped wasting mental effort on it.

Even... even though he had already mastered the method for condensing Pill Fire, he didn't try it.

First, there was no need!

Second, he also wanted to see what the other method Dark Moon mentioned was.

Having made his decision, Chu Yuan turned his gaze toward the three cookbooks.

Continue studying!

... The next day.

After Chu Yuan got up and washed, he headed straight toward the cold pond.

Although the medicinal power of the nine yang profound spirit flower had not been refined into his body to strengthen his Yang Qi, it was unlikely to form the Nine Yang Spirit Body.

However, the Yin and Yang spiritual power in his Meridians felt like his own; not only did it not conflict with his spiritual energy, but it also seemed to subtly enhance it.

Since this was the case, he naturally had to continue!

Chu Yuan took a deep breath, swallowed a petal of the nine yang profound spirit flower, and jumped into the cold pond.

With yesterday's experience, even without the assistance of the primal divine crystal this time, Chu Yuan quickly created a yin-yang vortex.

Furthermore, perhaps due to the Yin-Yang Power, the scorching medicinal power of the Profound Spirit Flower and the icy cold power of the cold pond did not affect him much this time.

Of course, the Yin Fiend Qi vanished the moment it entered his body.

After Chu Yuan created the yin-yang vortex, he continued to circulate his Cultivation Technique to maintain the vortex, which was devouring both types of power.

But feeling the Yin Fiend Qi constantly disappearing after entering his body, he couldn't help but feel confused.

"How exactly does the primal divine crystal absorb the Yin Fiend Qi?"

He muttered to himself internally.

Anything that entered his body was accepted entirely, there was no doubt about that.

But for the Yin Fiend Qi outside, there were several different situations.

The Yin Fiend Qi on the corpses of Zhang Mo and others should have been quickly absorbed.

The Yin Fiend Qi on Tie Zhu seemed to be absorbed slowly.

The Yin Fiend Qi in the canyon where Night Mantis was located was completely absorbed when only Night Mantis was left.

Chu Yuan had sensed this.

But here in the Ghost Fiend Nether Abyss, he didn't feel the surrounding Yin Fiend Qi decreasing.

This meant that the primal divine crystal's absorption of Yin Fiend Qi must follow a certain pattern.

But Chu Yuan couldn't figure out this pattern immediately.

Furthermore, the absorption of Demonic Evil Qi seemed to be similar.

Chu Yuan shook his head, no longer dwelling on it.

After all, he had a feeling that the amount of Demonic Evil Qi and Yin Fiend Qi absorbed didn't seem to affect the speed at which the primal divine crystal accumulated source primordial power.

Since this was the case, what more was there to say?

He should just treat the absorption of Yin Fiend Qi and Demonic Evil Qi as a special little Golden Finger.

Chu Yuan closed his eyes and continued circulating his Cultivation Technique, absorbing the scorching medicinal power and the icy cold power.

Outside the cold pond.

You Lian silently appeared, her eyes moving slightly as she murmured, "This kid is really working hard!"

"And at the age of sixteen, to be able to reach Spirit Vortex Realm Perfection, his talent is clearly excellent."

"What a pity, without follow-up Cultivation Technique, this great talent is being wasted!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized what she said and couldn't help but shake her head and laugh.

"If the Mistress hadn't brought him back, in a few more years, he would very likely be a pillar of the Human Race. What am I thinking?"

She shook her head and smiled. Seeing that Chu Yuan was fine, she sat cross-legged beside him.

Cultivate!

Besides absorbing the Yang Qi of the Human Race to increase their strength, the Ghost Race could also absorb the Spiritual Qi and Yin Qi between heaven and earth to Cultivate.

As for the Yin Fiend Qi, it naturally gathered around them when they Cultivated.

Yin Fiend Qi was harmless to them; on the contrary, it had the effect of gathering Yin Qi and assisting in Cultivate.

Moreover, during attacks, Yin Fiend Qi also became a means to threaten the Human Race.

Between the Yao Race and the Demon Race, since they all possessed Evil Qi, they were threats to each other.

Those without Evil Qi were Essence Spirit!

Thus, Essence Spirit became the existence among the Demons, monsters, ghosts, and ghouls that posed the least threat to the Human Race.
