27: Improved pill formula, fine pill

When Li Luo and the other two arrived at Jubao Tower, they found that it was already surrounded by layers of people.

The profession of Alchemist is extremely noble.

Whether in large Families, forces, or Sects, they are absolutely revered as honored guests.

And a high-level Alchemist, his power is quite terrifying.

Because every powerful Cultivator wants to befriend an Alchemist.

After all, no one can predict when you or someone you care about might need a Medicinal Pill to Breakthrough, or to restore combat power, or even to save a life.

It was precisely because of this that such a lively scene was created.

“Stand firm.”

With a soft shout, Li Luo grabbed Ji Yue'er and Sword Dust's shoulders, and with a flicker of his body, appeared in the front row.

Earth Shrinking, directly moved him in.

Ji Yue'er was fine, but Sword Dust's gaze towards Li Luo flickered even more with awe.

This Revered Master is truly unfathomable.

Li Luo ignored Sword Dust's little admiration and looked up.

Jubao Tower covered an extremely vast area, as wide as the commercial center buildings Li Luo had seen in his previous life, but with fewer floors.

The decoration was magnificent and extremely luxurious.

On the square in front of Jubao Tower, in front of seven Pill Furnaces, stood some rather nervous young men and women.

And not far away, on a Grandmaster's chair, an old man in a brocade robe, looking like an immortal, was dozing off.

Every gaze from the onlookers who came to watch fell on the old man, revealing deep respect and envy.

Presumably, this was Master Gu, the chief Alchemist of Jubao Tower.

Li Luo's lips curved, this grand display was quite impressive.

“Are you all ready?”

In the next moment, Master Gu, who was leisurely dozing in the Grandmaster's chair, suddenly opened his eyes slightly.

However.

Even so, it still startled these young men and women.

Li Luo even noticed a beautiful young girl close to them, uh... she seemed a bit older than him, around sixteen or seventeen.

At this moment, due to nervousness, fine beads of sweat appeared on her fair forehead, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

This mental fortitude is not up to par.

However, thinking about it, out of a total of seven people, only one would be admitted, so it was no wonder they were so nervous.

“Ready.”

“Ready.”

...

The other six quickly replied.

However, the girl closer to Li Luo seemed a bit slow, as if she was half a beat behind others.

She only weakly replied, “Ready.”

This couldn't help but cause some light laughter.

Which made Master Gu glance over here lightly and shake his head gently.

The beautiful girl became even more nervous, even taking several deep breaths, causing her curves to rise and fall.

“Heh heh, Ling'e, you can't escape from this young Revered Master's grasp.”

In the very front, a seemingly arrogant young man glanced at the nervous girl behind him, made a grasping gesture, and said silently.

“Hmph.”

She snorted softly.

Li Luo noticed that in the nervous and beautiful girl's eyes, there was a tenacity and defiance like wild grass.

This made him nod slightly.

“Good, since everyone is ready, let's begin.”

“In front of you are three sets of Materials for refining Quenching Bone Pills. They will be ranked by the quality of the Medicinal Pill produced; if the quality is the same, the one who takes less time wins.”

“If no one succeeds in refining, then all will be eliminated.”

Master Gu said indifferently.

After speaking, a maid in a cheongsam walked out from the side and offered fragrant tea.

Master Gu took a sip and closed his eyes again, feigning sleep.

“Tsk, this old man really knows how to enjoy himself.”

Beside Li Luo, Ji Yue'er said somewhat speechlessly.

Hearing this, Li Luo chuckled, thinking whether he should also train Yue'er, and let this Xiao Hu serve him in her leisure time?

Boom, boom, boom...

The seven Pill Furnaces began to ignite one after another.

Below the Pill Furnaces, there was a stove where Spiritual Wood could be placed, and the flames produced by its burning were much more intense and stable than ordinary wood.

One stove full of wood could basically support the Alchemy of a furnace of Low Grade Medicinal Pills.

In fact, Li Luo, who had been rewarded with Grandmaster Alchemy, knew that this Body Tempering Bone couldn't even be called a Medicinal Pill; it was just a pill, not reaching the level of a first-grade Medicinal Pill.

It was used to increase Qi and blood and strengthen bones for Cultivators in the Body Tempering realm.

Lighting the fire, heating the furnace, refining the Medicinal Materials...

Although the movements of these young men and women were a bit clumsy and awkward.

However, they were quite methodical, making some of the surrounding onlookers exclaim in admiration.

“Silence.”

Naturally, someone from Jubao Tower came out to maintain order.

Of course, public Alchemy also attracted a large flow of people, which indirectly made Jubao Tower's business even more popular.

Traffic is wealth, and this is also true in the cultivation world.

“Bang.”

“Bang.”

“Bang.”

One after another, a muffled sound came from the Pill Furnaces of several young men and women.

Among them was the arrogant young man who had just shown possessiveness towards the girl called Ling'e.

However, the annoyance on their faces was only fleeting.

Then they began to clean up the dregs in the Pill Furnace and restart the Alchemy.

“Bang!”

“Bang.”

...

One after another, the other few also failed in their Alchemy.

Black smoke curled up from the Pill Furnaces, emitting a pungent smell.

“Alas.”

The people around sighed, secretly thinking it was no wonder these Medicinal Pills were sold at such high prices; the failure rate was too high.

However, this scene made Li Luo frown slightly.

Because the Pill Formula for these Quenching Bone Pills that these young men and women were refining seemed to be somewhat different from the one the System rewarded him with.

“Lie Yang Grass.”

Suddenly, Li Luo discovered that among the three sets of Medicinal Materials, there was a red Spiritual Plant.

It was Lie Yang Grass.

It was precisely when this Medicinal Material was added that these Alchemy apprentices successively caused their Pill Furnaces to explode.

Although Ling'e also felt a hint of loss and self-blame, she quickly composed herself, swept away the dregs, and began to refine again.

“Revered Master, please help this Young Miss.”

Ji Yue'er also stared at Ling'e, worrying for the Young Miss.

Li Luo smiled, thinking, did this Xiao Hu think he was omnipotent?

Don't tell me, Revered Master really can do it.

“Good.”

Li Luo smiled faintly and nodded.

After agreeing, Li Luo said softly to Ling'e, “Young Miss, when you are refining, try replacing the Lie Yang Grass with this Moonflower Grass, it might have a miraculous effect.”

This Moonflower Grass was precisely what Li Luo and Ji Yue'er casually picked when they entered the Black Abyss Mountain Range.

After all, it was not old enough and had not yet reached the first-grade Spiritual Plant level.

Hearing this, Ling'e looked at Li Luo with a suspicious expression.

“Give it a try; if it doesn't succeed, you can blame me.”

Li Luo said confidently.

For some reason, Ling'e could feel a convincing demeanor from Li Luo.

She nodded slightly.

“Bang, bang.”

One after another, there were Pill Furnaces exploding.

Some young men and women even used up all three sets of Medicinal Materials without success.

The dramatic part was that in the end, only two people remained in the field.

It was the arrogant young man, and Ling'e.

From Ling'e's Pill Furnace, bursts of Medicinal Pill fragrance were already emanating.

At a certain moment, she slapped the Pill Furnace with her small hand, and a gleaming white Medicinal Pill shot out directly.

“Hmm?”

“Excellent grade?”

Smelling the Medicinal Pill fragrance, Master Gu, who had been feigning sleep just now, immediately opened his eyes, revealing a look of surprise.
