Chapter 20.1: Purification

The most important thing to refine a pill was to balance the medicinal strength. One of the most challenging things to fuse the attributes of the various medicinal ingredients together was the balance of the medicinal strength.

“First purify the herbs.”

Jia Rong spread out his soul power and instantly divided the ingredients into different categories. According to Yunxiao’s request, he placed them into various utensils and began to purify them.

Time passed bit by bit, and Yunxiao did not know how many times he had scolded Jia Rong, calling him ‘idiot’ now and then.

Jia Rong clenched his teeth and endured it step by step. During the entire refining process, he was perplexed. He began to memorize the steps and methods step by step. In the end, he followed instructions completely mechanically until he was completely exhausted.

“Alright, collect the pills!” As Yunxiao gave the order, Jia Rong was unable to hold on any longer. It was like an amnesty as he hastily used his soul power to release Essence. The two pills spun a few times in the air before falling into his hands.

“Origin Increasing Pill, Energy Explosion Pill, it’s really… Really successful!” Jia Rong trembled nonstop. He didn’t feel tired even though he had used up all his soul power. He said excitedly, “And it was I that refined it. Heavens! What did I do just now? How is this possible?”

He had been scolded to the point that his face was full of grievance when he was refining the pill. He wished that he could hear Young Master Yun’ idiot’ and ‘idiot’ scolding every day, as long as he could guide him in refining the pill.

Yunxiao took two pills from his hands, and after looking at them, he frowned and said, “Why is the purity so low? You still have the nerve to call me it that after refining such a trash? ”

Jia Rong’s eyes bulged out. He was just about to say that he wasn’t a master refiner. How would he know the meaning behind refining these two pills? But then, he thought about it. Previously, He wouldn’t believe that Young Master Yun wasn’t an Arcane Master refiner, even if he were beaten to death. But now… all of his refinings was done under Young master Yun’s guidance.

In Jia Rong’s eyes, Yunxiao was not only an Arcane Master but an existence that far surpassed his knowledge. Thinking of this, he immediately shut his mouth. Remembering what he had previously said about him being able to advance to become a Rank 6 alchemist, he couldn’t help but start to believe him. His entire body was trembling with excitement.

“You seem to be on the verge of collapsing. I have to purify it myself. How troublesome!” Yunxiaoi muttered. “But if it’s just for purifying, I have enough soul power as a high-level apprentice.”

He wrapped the pills with soul power and formed a seal above the formation once more. Streams of Yin Fire shot out from the formation and started burning the core.

“Purify?!” Jia Rong was stunned, “You can even purify a finished product? Isn’t it only the raw materials that can be purified? ”

Yunxiao was too lazy to explain this to him. His hands constantly changed hand seals as he carefully controlled the burn on the array.

Jia Rong widened his eyes and didn’t dare to blink. He had never seen any of Yunxiao’s hand seals before, but none of them gave him a sense of familiarity, as if there was something hidden behind them. He always felt that this thing was very important, but he was unable to grasp on to it. He kept scratching his head!

“Done. Whew~”

Yunxiao sighed softly. He placed the two purified pills in his hands and looked at them. He seemed to be extremely dissatisfied. He sighed and said, “I can only refine them to this extent. My soul power is too low.”

With the Energy Explosion, he had full confidence to reach the Martial Warrior Realm within three days. Only then would he have the courage to defeat the Rank 9 Martial Warrior, Lan Xuan. To be safe, he also had an Origin Increasing Pill as a backup. Only this way would he be able to be absolutely safe!

Jia Rong silently recited a total of 72 techniques. He tried his best to memorize these techniques in his mind forcefully. He inadvertently glanced at the purified pills in Yunxiao’s hand.

“Pure Grade Pill!” His mind suddenly went blank as he cried out.

Pills were divided according to their grade, but they also had a classification of purity. Normally, pills with a purity of 90% or above would become Pure Grade Pills. However, other than the strength of an Arcane Master, the formation of a pure rank pill more or less relied on luck.

Not only could Yunxiao directly purify the finished product, he could even refine a pure pill. This instantly shocked Jia Rong’s mind and caused him to forget about the 72 techniques. He stood in his room in a daze. Things that surpassed his common sense happened one after another, leaving him completely stupefied.

When he came back to his senses and realized that Yunxiao had already left, he was immediately filled with regret. He hurriedly took out a pen and paper and wrote down all of the doubts in his mind.

When Yunxiao was passing by the hall on the first floor, he heard Lu Yu loudly shout in excitement, “Success! I finally succeeded!”

Lu Yao immediately revealed a happy smile.

When she saw Yunxiao, she threw him a grateful smile.
