Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2530: Can Taichi Power Help Me with Alchemy?
Previously on Invincible Little School Doctor...
“Don’t worry, Master. I’ve already easily made third-grade peak mysterious pills. I think attempting this fourth-grade mysterious pill isn’t impossible!” Ye Haochuan said confidently.
Medicine King sighed, “This fourth-grade mysterious pill is not the same as third-grade. At the fourth-grade level, it’s a genuine divine pill. The gap here is not so easily crossed.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Haochuan’s expression became slightly wary, but he still insisted, “At this point, we can only have a try.”
He felt quite helpless, knowing if he went back and told Xu Yuanba he wasn’t going to try, Xu Yuanba certainly would not let him off easy.
Besides, in order to earn enough contribution points last time at the temple, with high-intensity refining, he could easily control all third-grade pills.
He had long wanted to try refining a fourth-grade mysterious pill, only he hadn’t had the appropriate herbs. Now, with the Xu Family providing the herbs for him to use, how could he waste this opportunity?
“Master, please guide me!”
With a nod to Medicine King, Ye Haochuan took out the pill furnace, prepared the herbs, and began alchemy.
The difference with the fourth-grade mysterious pill could be seen from the herbs.
The herbs Ye Haochuan took out were divine objects with spirit wisdom, still vividly fresh even after hundreds or thousands of years of storage.
Especially the Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb, one of the two main herbs along with Deep Sea Divine Ganoderma Pill Abyss Ice, released a unique fragrance within ten miles as soon as taken out. Whoever smelled it would have all hidden ailments cured.
Ye Haochuan took a deep breath and put the herb into the pill furnace, summoning the Mystic Yellow Meteoric Flame to begin refining.
However, as soon as the pill furnace was closed, an abnormal change occurred.
The Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb within the pill furnace began to collide fiercely.
This let Ye Haochuan realize how powerful these fourth-grade divine herbs truly were.
The sturdy Five Dragon Divine Monarch Cauldron was now constantly buzzing from the collisions, even the lid was struck off.
If it weren’t for the Five Dragon Divine Monarch Cauldron being a unique treasure, it would have been significantly damaged just from the impact.
The Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb struck off the lid and transformed into a ray of light fleeing the surroundings of the cavern.
With Ye Haochuan’s cultivation, he couldn’t catch up and could only watch it fly away.
Damn, after cultivating for so many years, I can’t even defeat a single herb. How humiliating!
Ye Haochuan felt incredibly frustrated.
As for alchemy, it seemed like a distant legend.
This Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb at least has God Lord Realm power, making it difficult for him to even control it, let alone refine it into a pill.
Fortunately, just as the Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb was about to escape into the heavens, Xu Chenglin couldn’t sit still anymore.
With a cold snort, it seemed everything within a hundred miles fell under his control.
The Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb instantly calmed down, obediently flew back, and landed in Ye Haochuan’s hand.
Xu Chenglin opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Ye Haochuan, seemingly questioning whether he could successfully refine the pill.
After a moment, he closed his eyes again and said nothing.
Perhaps over the years, he’d already lost all hope about his illness, so even if Ye Haochuan didn’t succeed, he wouldn’t feel any regret.
Ye Haochuan awkwardly smiled, once again throwing the Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb into the pill furnace.
Maybe it learned from its previous lesson, for the Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb finally didn’t struggle and behaved, letting Ye Haochuan handle it.
Yet this time, Ye Haochuan still couldn’t succeed in making a pill. Just as it entered the solidifying stage, the pills exploded uncontrollably.
Thankfully, Xu Yuanba also knew the difficulty of forming mysterious pills and prepared ten sets of herbs; otherwise, Ye Haochuan would have been truly embarrassed.
He didn’t rush to start the second batch but cleaned the pill furnace thoroughly, then sat down to meditate, reflecting on the gains and losses of the last refining.
The conclusion was still that his strength was too weak to control the Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb.
But in the short term, raising strength was clearly unrealistic, which left him troubled.
Just as he was at a loss, the Taichi Pearl suddenly spoke, “Have you forgotten Tai Chi Power?”
“Tai Chi Power can help me with alchemy?”
Ye Haochuan was surprised.
“Of course!”
The Taichi Pearl said matter-of-factly, “All things in the world don’t escape the Yin and Yang. Using Tai Chi Power will help you with everything you do.”
Ye Haochuan never imagined Tai Chi Power had so many uses, no wonder the Taichi Pearl praised it to the heavens, saying that once he reached Void God, he’d be invincible in that realm.
Now it seemed those words were not in vain.
However, theory is one thing, practical application is another.
When Ye Haochuan really tried to integrate Tai Chi Power into alchemy, he was at a loss.
Fortunately, with Taichi Pearl and Medicine King guiding him, Ye Haochuan’s confusion finally began to dissipate.
After two days of continuous practice, Ye Haochuan finally mastered integrating Tai Chi Power into alchemy.
With the furnace restarted, Xu Chenglin’s deterrent to the immortal herbs was indispensable, but once placed inside the pill furnace, a gentle force kept pouring into the Cold Marrow Divine Ganoderma Herb.
The reason the pills exploded was largely due to the repulsion between energies within the pills, making external forces unable to integrate them.
The beauty of the gentle force lies in its ability to neutralize these repulsions, greatly reducing the difficulty of forming pills.
With this trick, Ye Haochuan, who was already skilled at alchemy, grew even more confident.
In no time, he opened the lid and extracted a pill into his hand.
Although there was only one, and it was the lowest mortal grade, Ye Haochuan was already very satisfied.
From this moment on, he was a fourth-grade mysterious pill master.
In the Immortal Realm, a fourth-grade mysterious pill master has another title: Divine Pill Master!
In the entire Immortal Realm, there are only a handful in the temple, and now Ye Haochuan can proudly declare that he stands at the pinnacle of the alchemy world.
Don’t think this process was simple. In fact, if it weren’t for the pill refining method passed down from the High God and the unique Tai Chi Power, even if Ye Haochuan cultivated for hundreds of years more, he wouldn’t necessarily reach the level of Divine Pill Master.
With a good beginning, the subsequent efforts seemed much easier.
Several furnaces were started, and pills formed each time.
However, the spirit-level pills still weren’t made, and the formation rate of the Mount Emei furnace was still only one pill.
It seems that, despite creating the divine pill, he still has a long road ahead in pill refining.
When Ye Haochuan refined his first pill, Xu Chenglin already surprisedly opened his eyes, evidently not expecting Ye Haochuan, this young lad, to actually succeed.
Later, when Ye Haochuan could make pills with almost every furnace, Xu Chenglin was dumbfounded.
“If my Xu Family had a disciple like this, how wonderful it would be!”
