Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1985: Chapter 1985: Can You Guess What I Do?

Why the alchemy methods in the Immortal Realm are not as advanced as those in the Lower Realm is a question that leaves Ye Haochuan perplexed. Seeking advice from other Pill Masters would likely yield results rather than pondering endlessly by himself.

Upon realizing this, Ye Haochuan decided not to waste any more time on it. He distilled his prior experiences and began his second attempt at alchemy.

This time, the refining process was even easier than the last, and soon Ye Haochuan succeeded again. This reinforced his belief in the correctness of his alchemy methods.

However, the process consumed a significant amount of Flower Energy. Each batch cost him about thirty percent of his Flower Energy, requiring him to cease refining after three batches to replenish it, leaving him lamenting.

Fortunately, the Immortal Realm lacks nothing except Flower Energy. Given that he doesn’t have much Flower Energy initially, it only took him about an hour to recover fully.

”Including recovery time, refining three batches of pills takes roughly three hours. This efficiency... is really quite terrible!”

Calculating his alchemy rhythm, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but complain.

Although frustrating, he had no choice but to continue refining because he relied on these pills to earn his living expenses.

After refining five furnaces of Spirit-Purifying Detoxification Pills, Ye Haochuan decided to pause, intending not to produce any more detoxifying pills at the moment.

Next, he plans to refine some Infant Energy Condensation Pills and Nine-Bend Continuation Pills. One restores Spiritual and Flower Energy, and the other treats injuries—both essential pills that should sell well.

Two days later, Ye Haochuan exhaled slowly and packed up his Pill Furnace. Over these two days, he refined thirty Spirit-Purifying Detoxification Pills, including twenty-one Mortal Level and nine Spirit Level pills.

He also refined eighty-four Infant Energy Condensation Pills, with sixty-three Mortal Level and twenty-one Spirit Level pills.

As for the Nine-Bend Continuation Pills, he refined fifteen furnaces, totaling ninety pills. This time, perhaps due to increased experience from the first two furnaces, or maybe just good luck, among these ninety pills, forty-seven were Spirit Level, while only forty-three were Mortal Level, which delighted Ye Haochuan.

”According to the information I’ve gathered, there aren’t many alchemists here in the Immortal Realm. After all, the alchemy methods in the Immortal Realm are quite challenging, and not many can easily master it.” Ye Haochuan recalled his earlier failures with a wry smile.

If he hadn’t tried the alchemy method from the Lower Realm, he might not have successfully refined even one batch by now.

He was fortunate to have such a unique opportunity that others lack, for the Earth’s alchemy method is likely one-of-a-kind in the Immortal Realm.

Furthermore, he already had a deep understanding of the Lower Realm’s alchemy methods, without which even if he shared Earth’s refining method, others might not easily succeed.

Unbeknownst to Ye Haochuan, there are fewer alchemists in the Immortal Realm than he imagines, not only due to the challenging refining methods but also because of limited talent.

For reasons unknown, very few people in the Immortal Realm comprehend herbal properties and master alchemy fluently due to a lack of talent. Without such talent, even expert guidance can’t guarantee significant achievements.

”Next, I should find a place to sell these pills for some Red Crystal.”

After packing everything, Ye Haochuan opened his room door and walked to the innkeeper’s counter to inquire, ”Boss, is there a place nearby that trades in pills?”

”Ah? Pill trade, yes, yes, we have it, customer. Exit here, keep right, turn left at the second intersection, and you’ll see a pill shop called Legendary Elixir Shop.”

The innkeeper was squinting, seemingly lost in thought but suddenly perked up upon hearing Ye Haochuan’s voice, showing a slightly unnatural expression.

Yet upon comprehending Ye Haochuan’s question, he quickly stepped out of the counter, eagerly providing directions at the entrance.

”Thank you so much, boss, you’re very kind!”

Ye Haochuan thanked the innkeeper and proceeded toward the Legendary Elixir Shop as directed.

Legendary Elixir Shop, could it be that Brother Zeng owns this shop too? Damn, Brother Zeng has really expanded his business; even Mushan County is within his network.

While walking, Ye Haochuan pondered, unaware that behind him, the innkeeper was subtly observing him with an unusual gaze.

Even after Ye Haochuan disappeared from sight, the innkeeper kept staring at the place where he vanished, eyes glistening unpredictably with unknown thoughts.

”Wow, the Legendary Elixir Shop is quite extensive.”

Ye Haochuan exclaimed upon seeing the spacious, multi-storied pill shop.

”Good day, sir, may I help you with anything?”

Standing at the entrance of the Legendary Elixir Shop for less than two minutes, a young man in shop attendant attire ran out from the counter.

”Hmm? Are you talking to me?”

Ye Haochuan was surprised. He wasn’t the only person standing at the shop entrance; several others had been waiting longer, but the attendant approached him directly.

”Certainly, I’m speaking to you, sir,”

The young man’s eyes appeared clear, yet held a certain lively quality—not deceitful, but a unique, indescribable feeling.

”With so many people here, why did you recognize that I’d have a need?”

Ye Haochuan asked curiously.

”Haha, that’s simple. As soon as you arrived at our shop, your eyes have been scanning our pills, continuously changing, indicating you’re genuinely observing them.”

The young man chuckled softly, continuing, ”I’ve worked here over a year, and I’ve seen various customers. I can roughly guess their needs.”

”Oh, you’re that good? Can you guess why I intend to visit today?”

Ye Haochuan grew more intrigued upon hearing this.
