12: Chapter 12 Enjoyable Cultivation

Fang Yuan examined the other Medicinal Pills, and their quality was all High Grade.

With the verification of practical experience, he had basically mastered those insights from Alchemy experience.

If his Major Achievement level Spiritual Sense technique was added as assistance, he estimated that he had already reached the level of a First Rank High Grade Alchemist.

"Continue with Alchemy."

Fang Yuan took out the herbal powder again to continue refining the second furnace of Medicinal Pills.

And the amount of medicinal powder he extracted this time was three times that of before!

The triple amount of herbal powder was poured into the Pill Furnace.

Under the control of Fang Yuan's Spiritual Sense, it was heated evenly and perfectly melted into pure medicinal liquid.

Then, they were fused together one by one to form the fused medicinal liquid, which quickly turned pale white under the scorching of the Earth Fire.

"Withdraw!"

He pinched a formula with his fingers.

Snow-white Medicinal Pills filed out from the furnace spout one by one, falling into the jade plate and rolling into circles.

Upon counting, the number reached 27!

Ignoring the scalding heat of the Medicinal Pills, he pointed his finger at one of the Medicinal Pills that looked the best.

[Item]: Qi-Nourishing Pill

[Grade]: First Rank Low Grade (perfect top grade)

[Effect]: Contains pure Spiritual Qi, can be easily absorbed.

"Success!"

Fang Yuan laughed; he had truly refined a top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill!

He checked the other Medicinal Pills again, and they were all High Grade.

Although there was only one top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill, it already represented that his level had reached a very high degree; in terms of attainments with a single Medicinal Pill, he could already be called a Great Master!

He introspected his Sea of Consciousness and said with satisfaction: "The consumption of Spiritual Sense is twice that of before, but the effectiveness is three times; the efficiency has improved, but this is the limit. Controlling it is already a bit stressful."

Three batches of pills in one furnace—this was the bonus from his Spiritual Sense level. The Major Achievement level Xiao Yan One-Nine True Art had too great a bonus for Alchemy and Artifact Refining.

Fang Yuan continued to refine pills. This time, he attempted to refine the First Rank Medium Grade Qi-Condensing Pill.

The ingredients were Qi Gathering Grass powder, two-colored flower powder, and ten-year-old spiritual ginseng powder, refined with spiritual water.

This refining process was not much different from the previous one.

It was still the Fusion of three types of Materials; the spiritual water was just an intermediate for mixing and supplementing some Spiritual Qi.

When Fang Yuan finished collecting the pills.

A full six Medicinal Pills flew out of the Pill Furnace.

Each one had reached the High Grade level!

This had already exceeded the level of the two Alchemists in the Alchemy handbook.

"I can also refine High Grade pills for the Middle Stage of Qi Refining; I can try to refine the Qi Condensation Pill for the Late Stage of Qi Refining!"

Fang Yuan's expression shifted. From the herbal powder obtained from Decompose, he found the Materials needed for the Qi Condensation Pill and began the refining process according to the steps in his experience.

This refining was quite bumpy.

The proportions of the various medicinal liquids were vague, and the state the fused medicinal liquid should reach was also unclear; he could only refine it by feel.

When the Alchemy ended.

A total of seven Medicinal Pills flew out of the Pill Furnace and landed on the jade plate, but he saw that there were four pitch-black Waste Pills, as well as three slightly grayish-white Medicinal Pills.

He pointed his finger at them one by one.

"Three Low Grade Qi Condensation Pills."

Fang Yuan shook his head; this quality was too poor.

"The finished product effect is not good, the efficiency is too low, and I am only at Qi Refining Level 4, so I cannot take them. Plus, the consumption of Alchemy is also high; I am not suitable for refining Qi Condensation Pills right now."

Fang Yuan turned to refine Qi-Nourishing Pills and Qi-Condensing Pills.

Although the Qi-Nourishing Pill was a Medicinal Pill for the Early Stage of Qi Refining, the top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill had medicinal effects not much different from those of the Middle Stage of Qi Refining, so it could be fully used for daily Cultivation.

Fang Yuan just kept refining pills like this.

Until his Spiritual Sense was exhausted.

He harvested a total of 270 Qi-Nourishing Pills and 30 Qi-Condensing Pills!

"A normal Qi Refining Level 4 Cultivator would probably refine four or five batches of pills at most. My Spiritual Sense is strong enough, and since the herbal powder does not need to be refined to remove Impurities, the process is simplified a lot, so I can refine fifteen batches of pills. Added to the 100% success rate and high output, my quantity of finished pills is probably more than ten times that of others."

Fang Yuan felt this was reasonable, and this was still because he was unskilled; when he became skilled later, he might be able to refine even more.

He casually took out a top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill and swallowed it.

The Medicinal Pill slid into his stomach and quickly released a large amount of medicinal power.

At this moment.

Fang Yuan's three Cultivation Techniques started running simultaneously.

Xiao Yan One-Nine True Art!

Bright Qi Technique!

Cloud Body Art!

They all began to refine the medicinal power in these Medicinal Pills.

A portion was converted into Spiritual Power and transferred into the Dantian, a portion was absorbed by flesh and blood to strengthen the Physical Body, and a portion was absorbed into the Sea of Consciousness to restore and strengthen Spiritual Sense.

Originally, a top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill was enough to equal five days of hard work for a Qi Refining Level 4 Cultivator, requiring slow refinement, and more than half of the medicinal power would dissipate.

But now, with the crazy devouring of the three big gluttons in Fang Yuan's body, those medicinal powers were easily divided up.

In the Dantian, the increase in Spiritual Power was only equivalent to one day of hard work, meaning only 20% of the medicinal power was absorbed.

Of the remaining 80%, 50% was absorbed by flesh and blood, and 30% was absorbed by the Sea of Consciousness.

And the Spiritual Power produced by the Bright Qi Technique would again be requested and absorbed by the Sea of Consciousness and the Physical Body. In the end, his Spiritual Power cultivation improved very little, but his Body Refining cultivation increased greatly!

"Not bad, this is exactly what I need. The Physical Body is the foundation, and Spiritual Qi and Spiritual Sense are just the floors built on it. Only when the foundation is laid firmly can the upper floors be built faster and better!"

Fang Yuan's heart was clear as a mirror. After the consumption was finished, he took out the second top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill to refine, not caring at all that there was still some residual medicinal power in his body that had not been refined; those scattered medicinal powers would dissipate if they dissipated, there was no need to care about the loss.

The second Qi-Nourishing Pill entered his abdomen, and a large amount of medicinal power surged out again.

Fang Yuan introspected his body and could see that obvious cloud patterns had appeared on his flesh, blood, and bones.

Especially on one piece of spinal bone, a complete cloud pattern had already successfully condensed!

That white cloud seemed to be breathing, autonomously absorbing Spiritual Qi and Spiritual Power to strengthen that bone!

Not only on the bones, but on the organ of the stomach, a cloud pattern of a white cloud had also emerged, strengthening the stomach and consuming more medicinal power of the Medicinal Pills into Spiritual Power!

Unknowingly, his Body Refining Realm had already reached the third level!

"What a fast cultivation speed!"

Fang Yuan exclaimed in admiration.

"According to the Body Refining speed of a normal Cultivator, it takes two or three years to go from the Early Stage of the third level to the Peak of the third level, while I use Medicinal Pills to accelerate. One top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill is worth ten days of hard work. Theoretically, swallowing one hundred top grade Qi-Nourishing Pills would reach the Peak."

This was a luxurious and huge expense. The price of one top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill was 500 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which was one hundred times the price of a Low Grade Qi-Nourishing Pill, and it was priceless. Calculated, it was worth 50,000 Spirit Stones. Using it for Body Refining at the third level was simply too luxurious.

But for Fang Yuan, all of this was free, it didn't cost money at all, which was very satisfying.

Fang Yuan continued to swallow the Medicinal Pills, refining one top grade Qi-Nourishing Pill every ten minutes.

When the daylight was bright, Fang Yuan had just swallowed 50 top grade Qi-Nourishing Pills.

His Body Refining cultivation had reached the Late Stage of the third level.
