Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 341: Chapter 167: Implementing Mountain Collapse, Refining Tongyou Pill (Seeking Monthly Tickets !)_2

He gently collected the leftover residues of the pills.

Mi Li asked him with a soft smile why he was collecting the residues, as they were usually deemed useless and were typically discarded in the wilderness.

With wide eyes, Qu Lingjun merely replied that these were the residues of successful pill refinements. By comparing them with the residues of failed attempts, they might be able to discern other differences between success and failure.

Outside the Pill Room, Luo Chen, who was almost back to his stone house, suddenly halted his steps.

He also had such a habit, learning from his failures.

But, he seemed to have never paid attention to the residues left behind by successful pill refinements.

Just like solving a math problem.

Many people, when they get a wrong answer, will look for the step where they went wrong.

But few people, after getting the correct answer, will spend time examining the meanings of every step in their calculation process.

Because, everyone is immersed in the joy of success.

Whether in pill refinement or problem-solving.

Though insignificant, it’s indeed a new perspective for me,” Luo Chen chuckled lightly, not bothering to delve further.

After returning to the stone house, he activated the Arrays and went down to Changyin Mountain.

The Earth Rock Technique and Wave Technique had both reached the Perfection Level.

Among Immortal Cultivators, it would be considered as somewhere between the Completion Stage and Completion Stage, already able to run smoothly according to his will.

Today, he wanted to try the Second Order Technique Collapse, a technique that combined the Fireball, Earth Rock, and Wave Techniques!

Ling Jun, stop playing with mud and start cultivating.”

“Grandpa, I’m not playing with mud!”

Qu Hancheng could only smile indulgently as he pulled the dirt-covered Qu Lingjun away from the pot.

He looked down and caught a scent mixed with the smell of burnt herbs. “Are these pill residues?”

“No, these are not ordinary residues!” Qu Lingjun smiled proudly, “These are pill residues that are on the verge of failure and success!”

“Hm?”

‘Forget it, grandpa. You’re old and won’t understand.”

“Well, you bratty kid, go wash up.”

While Qu Lingjun was washing up, Qu Hancheng gazed at the gradually darkening sky, looking towards the Inner City of The Great River.

Now, that place was a Ghost City.

All his descendants, his son and daughter-in-law, and two grandsons without a Spirit Root were all dead inside.

Die in peace! I will definitely make Ling Jun a strong cultivator,” he vowed in his heart, then took two jade bottles from his Storage Bag.

The first contained a Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pill, which was what he got at a discount from the Broken Mountain Gang.

It was perfect for Qu Lingjun at his current level.

The latter was a Qi Nurturing Pill, which he recently bought at a high price at the southern black market of the Outer City.

This was a product of the Medicine King Sect, mild in effect and without after-effects.

Taking too many Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pills can result in after-effects such as Dantian Jade Formation.”

“Supposedly, Ling Jun should take the Qi Nurturing Pill, but I…”

Qu Hancheng considered his remaining lifespan and the severe injuries he had suffered, realizing he didn’t have many good years left.

He could only earn so many Spirit Stones in a month as a Fire Worker at the Pill Hall, just enough to barely cover the needs of a Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivator.

“The price of Qi Nurturing Pills is going up, I can’t afford many.”

111 save these few bottles for now. Once Ling Jun reaches the Middle Stage of Qi Refinement and stops taking Jade Marrow Pills, I’ll give him these Qi Nurturing Pills!”

After making up his mind, Qu Hancheng carefully put away the bottle holding the Qi Nurturing Pills.

By the time Qu Lingjun had finished washing up, running around naked, he chided him with a smile to put on his clothes and start cultivating.

Qu Lingjun, however, stood on his bed, swinging his privates, and loudly made his case:

“No!”

“A few days ago, I heard the chairman say that one needs to be close to nature and experience The Great Dao Path to establish the foundation for cultivation. ” “Cultivating with clothes on will hinder my absorption of the Spirit Qi from the external world.”

Qu Hancheng was baffled, was there such a rule?

It was just a layer of underwear after all.

But thinking it was Luo Chen who had said it, he half-believed and half-doubted it, and decided to go along with it.

Alright, follow your heart. Take a pill before you start cultivating.”

As he spoke, the old man started a fire in the corner of the room.

The charcoal fire brought a trace of warmth to the room.

He also opened a slit in the window, allowing the cold air outside the room to trickle in.

He didn’t want his little grandson to catch cold, but he also didn’t want anything to happen due to lack of fresh air in the room.

It was a hard job for the old man indeed.

However, when he turned around, he found that Qu Lingjun was not cultivating right away.

Instead, he was squatting on the bed, staring blankly at a pill in his hand.

“It’s just a Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pill, what’s there to…”

Qu Hancheng was stunned.

Because the pill in the kid’s hand clearly had three cloud patterns, indicating that it was not a Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pill.

Instead, it was an Ascendant Grade Jade Marrow Pill!

He snatched the pill, his face tense, “Where did you get this?”

Qu Lingjun pouted, “The chairman rewarded it to me today. He said I recited the Hundred Herbs Manual well.”

It was given by the chairman!

Initially, he was worried about Qu Lingjun stealing it. But when he learned that it was given by Luo Chen, a huge weight lifted off his heart.

Whether it was in the Broken Mountain Gang or Luo Tian Creed, it was their honesty and dedication to their work that helped Qu family rise above the other Rogue Cultivators.

Stealing was a big taboo!

It was not to be tainted by any means.

Having breathed a sigh of relief, Qu Hancheng suddenly realized…

“Ascendant Grade Jade Marrow Pill!”

“Oh, my God!”

Has Chairman Luo’s Pill Refinement Technique progressed to such an extent?

It hasn t been long, and he’s managed to refine the Ascendant Grade Jade

Marrow pill.”
