Chapter 1213: Alchemy Genius

After wasting materials for five more furnaces, Mengyu finally successfully refined a Starvation Pill without adding Stone Bamboo Pith.

However, once Mengyu succeeded, she recorded every detail of the success, such as the order of adding Spiritual Medicine and control of heat. Afterward, there were no waste pills when refining the Starvation Pills.

Next, she started refining the Yuan Nourishing Pill. She failed only once, then succeeded, and thereafter, every batch was successful. Xiao Tao praised her greatly: "Master, you are an alchemy genius, a natural-born alchemist."

The materials for refining the Yuan Nourishing Pill were quite abundant. Mengyu became more proficient, initially taking an hour or two to refine a batch. Gradually, she reduced the time required, eventually only needing five minutes to produce a batch.

She refined quite a lot. By the time she realized, it was already too late—she had refined over a hundred batches of Yuan Nourishing Pills, with more than thirty pills per batch, totaling over three thousand pills!

Xiao Tao comforted Mengyu: "Master, you have so many registered disciples, even if each of them received a bottle, it would require many bottles."

Well, she now had registered disciples like Shen Qi, Wu Jiangsheng, Zhang Shuiyu, Xiao Hua, Ah Xin, and Jing Cuizhu, each of whom could get a bottle of Yuan Nourishing Pills.

Wang Huilan and Huang Zifeng, her two inner chamber disciples who are Cultivators, no longer benefit from Yuan Nourishing Pills. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

But the problem is, each bottle contains a hundred pills—can they really use so many Yuan Nourishing Pills?

Moreover, giving them so many Yuan Nourishing Pills at once—doesn’t it foster the mindset that Yuan Nourishing Pills are as common as cabbage?

"Hurry and make some pill bottles, divide them up, and make each bottle contain just ten pills."

After packing the Yuan Nourishing Pills, Mengyu looked at the large pile of pills and decided that from now on, she would gift Yuan Nourishing Pills as presents.

Putting the Yuan Nourishing Pills aside, Mengyu started refining the Gathering Yuan Pill for Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Like the Yuan Nourishing Pill, she succeeded after only one failed attempt. However, this time she didn’t make too many before stopping.

She needed to refine the Yellow Dragon Pills for the Golden Core cultivators.

Exchanging for Yellow Dragon Pills costs ten Merit Points each, which is too expensive.

The pills provided by Gu Dongxing, initially felt okay, but later on, she sensed issues with them. Upon closer inspection, she realized the efficacy had diminished because they had expired.

If she could refine Yellow Dragon Pills, that would be wonderful.

However, the Spiritual Medicines needed to refine Yellow Dragon Pills had insufficient years in her space; they were only available in the Space House’s Medicinal Garden.

Mengyu turned around and found that she could barely gather nineteen sets of materials for refining the Yellow Dragon Pills.

She only managed to get two sets of materials for refining the Purple Heart Pill, used by Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

She had to refine very carefully, preferably without wasting a single set.

To save materials, she didn’t refine an entire set at once, but instead divided it into ten parts, refining one pill at a time.

The first attempt at refining failed, unsurprisingly.

The second attempt also was unsuccessful.

On the third attempt, she finally succeeded, obtaining one Yellow Dragon Pill.

On the fourth attempt, she refined two pills, but due to a careless thought at the end, she failed again.

However, the following two refining attempts were both successful. Each time she obtained two Yellow Dragon Pills.

She tried refining two pills, succeeded, and even when refining three pills, she still succeeded. When she eventually increased the number to putting in the materials in sequence, she added a drop of Stone Bamboo Pith, successfully refining thirty-three High Grade Yellow Dragon Pills!

Afterward, she was entirely engrossed in the alchemy process, eating Starvation Pills when hungry. Thanks to the Stone Bamboo Pith’s enhancement, she succeeded practically every time, and all the resulting Yellow Dragon Pills were top-grade.

When she reached out to grab more Spiritual Medicine, she found nothing left.
