Chapter 730 - Refining Pills Using Monster Peach
Inside one of the rooms of the huge tree,
'Gloom angelica, Night ambrosia, Arctic bloom'
Ajax searched through his alchemy knowledge and after carefully calculating the reactions of those alchemy ingredients, he came to a conclusion.
According to the properties of the ingredients, Ajax selected three ingredients which could enhance the life energy and the properties of the main ingredient into the pill.
For that, he had to refine the three ingredients at the same time and mix their essence with good quality water.
'As for the good quality water, I can use the mini-thunder pool's water,'
Ajax started calculating the alchemy refining process in his mind for a couple of times to boost his confidence.
'Luckily, I have all the ingredients needed to start my refining,'
Ajax really felt he was lucky to have all the required ingredients in his inventory and thought, 'If I didn't loot the scammer into the dimensional crevice, I would not have the Gloom angelica and if not for the lightning hawk tribe, the other two ingredients were very hard to find in the Zrochester province.'
'Nevertheless, I would have used other ingredients with the same properties. Although it would have decreased the efficiency of the pill that would not make much difference,'
Ajax silently thought in his head.
"Time to refine,"
Finally, Ajax thought to refine the pills using monster peach along with other ingredients.
However, a sudden thought flashed in his head making him fall into the dillemma.
The thought is 'Why don't I add mid-level spirit stone into the mix as a catalyst'.
The reason for this thought was because of the advanced essence pills.
When he was refining the essence pills, he added the mid-level spirit stone which increased the effectiveness of the essence pills by multiple folds.
Moreover, the mid-level spirit stone increases the success rate of the refining for some unknown reason.
So, without any hesitation, he thought of adding a mid-level spirit stone.
'Swoosh'
Soon, he started using the medium fire refining technique and the essence of nature started coming out of his body.
'Fire should be the extension of the my hands'
'Fire should be the cauldron'
.
.
.
.
After upgrading the basic fire refining technique into medium fire refining technique, his understanding over 'Fire' also increased as he muttered to himself until the fire transformed into a cauldron.
'Two stalks of Night ambrosia,'
'One stalk of Gloom angelica,'
'And two Arctic bloom flowers,'
Soon, he threw three ingredients into the cauldron in an appropriate ratio and started refining them to collect their essences.
Currently, Ajax is using a method named as essence collector.
In this method, all the ingredients were thrown into the cauldron and as long as the alchemist controls the fire properly, all the essence will flow out of the ingredients and mix together on their own. As for the residue of the ingredients, they would act as the fuel for the flame and without hindering the process.
"One liter water,"
When he sensed the essence of all ingredients were mixed, Ajax poured one liter water from the mini-thunder realm pool which he had prepared in advance.
'Shh'
'Gur gud gul'
As soon as he poured thunder realm's pool water into the furnace made up of fire, it started boiling.
'Now, it's time to refine the monster peach,'
With a thought, a monster peach appeared in his hand and at the same time, the fire came out of his hand before swallowing the fruit.
'I have to be careful while extracting the essence from the monster peach,'
At the point of time, he had to divide his focus into two parts, a major one and a minor one.
Major focus will be on the extracting monster peach whereas the minor focus will be on the fire cauldron.
If he messed up extracting the essence of monster peach, then everything would be in vain because extractingthe essence from the monster peach is different compared to extracting the essence from other alchemy ingredients.
Nevertheless, with the help of alchemy maniac title, he knew what he had to do.
'Ding,
Extracting essence from a special fruit, monster peach.
'Ding,
The host is rewarded with one lottery chance.
Just as he finished the extraction, the system rewarded him with a lottery chance which made him reveal a slight smile; however, he didn't dare to relax as he continued wiith the next step of the process which is to add the essence to the cauldron.
'Shakes'
As soon as he added the monster peach's essence to the cauldron filled with other essences and thunder realm's pool water, the fire cauldron started shaking as though the reaction was unstable and it would blast at any time.
Seeing that, he became anxious and hurriedly threw a mid-level spirit stone into the fire cauldron.
Soon, the fire cauldron stopped shaking and became stable.
'Sigh...after this mid-level spirit stone, I will only have one more in my inventory. I swear, I should use the remaining mid-level spirit stone for refining the advanced essence pills.'
Actually, he stored the mid-level spirit stone for the sake of refining the advanced essence pill; however, he already used two of three mid-level spirit stones which left him with only one mid-level spirit stone.
So, he swore that he would use it for refining the advanced essence pills only.
Nevertheless, he would be happy, if the pills he was going to refine have some additional effects on them.
'Burn'
After throwing the mid-level spirit stone, the fire cauldron was completely sealed and Aajx started increasing the intensity of the falme.
'Ting'
'Phew'
After exactly 10 minutes, he heard a sound that made him heave a sigh of relief.
As for the pills inside the fire cauldron, he was confident enough that the alchemy process was successful even without the system notification.
Also, he was sure that there were more than two pills inside them making him unconsciously smile from ear to ear.
'Ding,
Soon, his head was filled with ding sounds; however, he didn't bother with them as he hurriedly collected the pills from the fire cauldron into alchemy bottles before rushing out of the room with an excited smile on his face.
....
In the Eternal Garden secret realm,
"It's been only twelve hours and they already progreed multiple minor realms,"
"As long as they maintain this speed, they might reach the peak of the general realm,"
"Even if the effectiveness of the essence pool decrease, reaching the cultivation of level 8 general realm is very much possible for everyone,"
All the vagrant cultivators looked at a pool that was completely filled with mist made up of the essence of nature and discussed among themselves.
"As for Levi, he would definitely enter the top 10 in the champions contest,"
They were shocked by Levi's cultivation speed. Compared to others, his cultivation talent was much higher, to begin with, and with the addition of a suitable heaven grade cultivation technique, it increased even more.
Moreover, they thought that since his cultivation was already level 3 elite general realm, his progress would be slow, however, he already entered level mid-stage level 4 elite general realm in just 12 hours and within another 12 hours, he would definitely enter level 5 elite general realm.
