chapter 13 messing around

One hour is four sticks of incense.

Two sticks of incense have passed, Aethoros Bolton has just lit the stove, and there are still two sticks of incense left. What is the probability of refining a spirit-gathering pill?

No one believed he could succeed.

Everyone was waiting outside for Aethoros Bolton to come out with a disgraced face.

at the same time.

In the alchemy room, Aethoros Bolton officially made alchemy.

"Selecting the medicine, heating the furnace, adding the medicine, and purifying it have all been completed. As long as the melting of the medicine follows the records in the "Elixir of Immortality Sutra", there will be no mistakes."

Aethoros Bolton carefully controls the temperature.

soon.

The fifth step of melting the medicine was successfully completed.

Next is another key step, 'Condensation of Pills'. This step is more difficult than purification. If you make one careless step, it could lead to failure at best, or a furnace explosion at worst.

Aethoros Bolton was extremely cautious and did not dare to be negligent.

After all the medicinal materials were merged into a ball of liquid, Aethoros Bolton felt that the time had come and put the last 'Julinghua' into it. However, at the same moment when he put it in——

"laugh!"

A stream of white smoke jumped out from the furnace cauldron, and a burning smell filled the air.

Failed?

Aethoros Bolton was startled and quickly opened the furnace and saw a pile of white powder inside.

It really failed.

The first time I made alchemy, I lost all my money.

Aethoros Bolton frowned: "I didn't do the wrong steps, how could I fail? Is there something wrong with the "Elixir of Immortality"... Forget it, don't care, try again."

Time was running out, so Aethoros Bolton immediately poured out the powder and made the elixir again without thinking too much.

Same steps.

Soon it was time to reach the sixth step of ‘Condensing the Pill’.

Aethoros Bolton carefully controlled the temperature of the furnace and felt that the medicinal liquid inside was almost fused before he put the Spirit-Gathering Flower in. However, at the moment of contact.

The Soul-Gathering Flower burned again.

With a "chi" sound, another stream of white smoke spurted out from the furnace.

Failed again!

But Aethoros Bolton eyes lit up: "I understand! The timing of putting in the Juling Flower must be at the moment when the liquid has just merged. Once it exceeds the Juling Flower, it will be rejected. This is the reason why I failed twice. .”

Once you are aware of the problem, it is easy to correct it.

There is only one last stick of incense left.

Aethoros Bolton hurriedly cleaned the cauldron, warmed the furnace, put medicine in, and purified... Until he reached the sixth step, he concentrated on the fusion of the medicinal liquids in the cauldron. At the moment when several medicinal liquids merged into one——

Put in the Soul-Gathering Flower!

There was no white smoke this time. The medicinal liquid swallowed up the Soul Gathering Flower and solidified quickly, turning from a liquid into a crystal clear pill.

A first-grade spirit-gathering elixir——

Done!

Aethoros Bolton was excited and became more cautious. He gradually extinguished the red flames and allowed the cauldron to slowly cool down, until bursts of red fragrance floated out from the holes in the cauldron lid.

"Turn on the furnace!"

He opened the furnace cauldron and found a green pill lying at the bottom of the furnace.

Alchemy, success!

"This elixir is of higher quality and more spiritual energy than the one issued by Huangwu Tianku. It is at least the first grade."Aethoros Bolton took out the elixir and was very satisfied.

From this moment on he had a new identity.

One-star alchemist!

Of course, since he has not passed the assessment of the Alchemist Association, he can only be regarded as a de facto one-star alchemist. In terms of official status, he is still an ordinary monk.

Even so.

He also won this bet.

Aethoros Bolton put away the Spirit Gathering Pill, and as soon as he held it in his palm, the stone door creaked open from the outside.

next moment--

Faces watching the show came into view. The leader was Orphelion Bolton who was gloating about his misfortune. He raised the corner of his mouth and said: "Damn trash, the time is up, hand over the pornographic weapon!"

"It smells burnt, and the alchemy has failed."

Some customers sniffed their noses and smelled the burnt smell in the stone room.

"It will definitely fail!"

"Oh, it's a waste of an hour, but it's good to have a look at the yellow weapon... Take it out quickly, don't waste time, I'll take a look and leave."

shouted some onlookers.

The burly middle-aged man looked at Aethoros Bolton without saying a word. As a two-star alchemist, he was extremely sensitive to elixirs. The moment the stone door opened, he could smell the pungent burnt smell.

Very rich!

This means that alchemy has failed, and it has failed completely.

but……

There seems to be a faint scent of elixir hidden in the burnt smell.

What's this?

Could it be the elixir fragrance of the Spirit Gathering Pill?

The burly middle-aged man was confused.

"The Deposed crown prince, the time has come. Can you refine the elixir? If not, give the yellow weapon to His Highness the Crown Prince and keep all the elixirs on him."

Furukawa couldn't wait.

As a two-star alchemist, Furukawa's sensitivity to elixirs was only slightly worse than that of the burly middle-aged man, but he was too concerned about the failure of Aethoros Bolton to notice a wisp of elixir fragrance in the burnt atmosphere.

Aethoros Bolton took his time and said, "I have the yellow weapon and the elixir. I am very curious about your worth."

"What, you still think you can win?"

Furukawa stroked his beard and smiled.

"Since it's a bet, you have to know the opponent's chips. As a two-star alchemist, you can't only have a few banknotes."

Aethoros Bolton and indifferent.

"Hahaha, since you want to be a sensible person, I will satisfy you." Furukawa deliberately took this opportunity to show off and add some chips to Orphelion Bolton heart.

He proudly revealed his net worth:

"I have thirteen second-grade elixirs, hundreds of first-grade elixirs, a superior qigong, eight kinds of elixirs, a treasure furnace and cauldron, and countless gold and silver belongings!"

Aethoros Bolton: "How many are there?"

"At least one million... no, at least two million taels of silver!" Furukawa was extremely proud: "In addition to gold and silver, I also have spiritual stones, which are of great value!"

When the onlookers heard the price, they were shocked and dumbfounded.

Is this the two-star alchemist?

So rich!

They are all prominent figures in the imperial city, but in terms of net worth, the whole family combined is not as rich as any other family, especially the treasures such as furnaces and cauldrons, and elixirs and spiritual stones.

This is not even comparable to gold and silver!

Aethoros Bolton raised his eyebrows: "So, you are very rich?"

"That's natural!"

Furukawa was proud.

Orphelion Bolton also urged: "You bastard, don't waste time, hand over the yellow weapon quickly, I don't have a magic weapon that I can take advantage of, I'm going to make a decision today!"

"You can't get the yellow stuff, but I accept his wealth with a smile."

Don't wait for the other person to speak.

Aethoros Bolton rushed to the burly middle-aged man, opened his right hand, and revealed a green spirit-gathering pill in his palm: "This is a first-grade spirit-gathering pill. Please taste it, the Subtower master Flynn."

What?

Everyone was shocked by the green pill in his palm.

A first-grade spirit-gathering pill?

Done?

Did he really refine it?

The burly middle-aged man was also shocked. Even though he had doubted the elixir fragrance just now, at the moment he saw it, his brain was still buzzing and going blank. He couldn't believe that Aethoros Bolton had been refined into a spirit-gathering elixir.

Isn’t the other party a waste that cannot cultivate?

Not only can you practice cultivation now, but you can also make alchemy?

He hurriedly took the Green Pill, and as soon as he took it, he judged that it was not just a Spirit-Gathering Pill, but a Spirit-Gathering Pill of excellent quality, which could be called a first-class pill!

The other party really did it!

Also shocked were Orphelion Bolton and Furukawa, but their reactions were completely different from others.

"This, this, this...how, how can...is it possible...the ancient, ancient...master..."

Orphelion Bolton stuttered.

"Your Highness, don't panic, he is cheating!"

Kohe stared at the Spirit Gathering Pill, as if he had grasped the handle, and said in a ferocious voice: "Deposed crown prince, you want to use the pill prepared in advance to get through. How can you hide this despicable method from me? Today is the monthly routine of the royal family. On the day of distribution, you just received ten first-grade spirit-gathering pills from Huangwu Tianku, is this one of them?"

"You are cunning, you want to use this method to hide the truth."

"pity--"

"You meet this Taoist, and under my nose, you will have no way to escape by any means!"

Um?

This statement made all the customers stunned. Orphelion Bolton showed such an expression. The burly middle-aged man frowned and looked at the elixir in his hand, and he also became suspicious.

Is this from the Daqian royal family?

Aethoros Bolton didn't refine the elixir, but used the ones distributed by the royal family to deceive himself?

For a while.

Everyone became suspicious.
