Chapter 12: Learning Pill Refining (Seeking Follow-up Reads)

In front of the bookshelf, Ye Jingcheng hesitated between two jade slips, while Ye Haiping didn't urge him, but rather, he was more curious about Ye Jingcheng's choice.

"Eighth Grandfather, I wonder what the price is for copying the Tempering Body Pill and Azure Spirit Pill formulas?" After pondering for a long time, Ye Jingcheng finally picked up the two jade slips and asked.

"The Azure Spirit Pill is eighty contribution points, and the Tempering Body Pill is sixty contribution points!" Ye Haiping finally smiled and replied.

"What about other pills?" Ye Jingcheng continued to ask.

"Azure Origin Pill is seventy, Qi and Blood Pill is fifty…" Ye Haiping answered one by one.

"Eighth Grandfather, I'll choose the Azure Spirit Pill formula, and I'll also use contribution points to exchange for the Tempering Body Pill formula!" Ye Jingcheng quickly made a decision.

As the family token was deducted another sixty points, Ye Jingcheng had two more jade slips in his hand.

"Both jade slips must be returned within a month!" Ye Jingcheng nodded, a month was enough time for him to master the formulas.

"Eighth Grandfather, also, I'll exchange for twenty portions of Spirit Feeding Pill materials, as well as ten portions of Tempering Body Pill and five portions of Azure Spirit Pill materials!" Ye Jingcheng took out the family token again.

Ye Haiping nodded in satisfaction with Ye Jingcheng's choice. If it were other cultivators, they might directly exchange all of their points for first-grade, mid-quality materials.

But pill refining wasn't that easy; gradual progress was the most stable approach.

After another seventy contribution points were deducted from the token, Ye Jingcheng painfully accepted it.

After preparing the spiritual herb materials and pill formulas, he headed towards his house. After reviewing them at home for three days, he went to the Pill Pavilion.

Inside the Pill Pavilion, all the pill refining rooms were tightly closed. Ninth Elder Ye Haitian sat in his seat, looking rather relaxed. His precious bell was placed beside him.

Clearly, it wasn't time to change rooms yet. Those who came here to refine pills usually rented a room for three days and would only come out at noon.

Ye Jingcheng arrived a little early. Every time he arrived early, he would help Ninth Elder with chores and ask about pill refining matters.

This allowed him to gain a little more from each pill refining session than others.

However, this time, Ye Haitian only glanced at him before turning his head away, busy with his own affairs.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally a little puzzled.

After looking around, he suddenly understood.

He saw that one door was still half-open.

A look of joy instantly appeared on Ye Jingcheng's face, because this refining room didn't belong to anyone else, but to Ye Haiyun of the Ye family.

Ye Haisheng, the eldest of the Hai generation in the Ye family, was a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Second brother Ye Haiyi was recognized as the strongest Qi Refinement stage fighter in the Ye family and was in charge of the Demon Hunting Hall. Fourth brother Ye Haiyun was the most skilled pill refiner in the Ye family.

This pill refining room was usually closed!

But every time it was half-open, one could see the pill refining scene inside through the small gap.

Ye Jingcheng's pill refining skills had reached such an achievement, thanks to secretly watching.

Other Ye family members might think that it was best not to watch without Fourth Elder's permission.

But Ye Jingcheng's view was different. If it was half-open, wasn't that implying that they could watch?

It was just that they weren't allowed to enter, after all, pill refining was most taboo to be disturbed!

Ye Jingcheng watched and took out a jade slip to start recording.

At this time, through the half-open door, one could see that it was the time to collect the pills, and they were refining Azure Spirit Pills.

Ten azure green Azure Spirit Pills could be seen, each one extremely full and fragrant.

Ye Jingcheng's footsteps suddenly stopped. Truly, the early bird gets the worm!

Ye Haiyun didn't seem to notice Ye Jingcheng or something else, and didn't make any extra movements. With a wave of his hand, he continued to nourish the furnace.

Pill refining, like cultivation, was very particular. The first step was to wipe away the remaining spiritual herb residue and use the right amount of fire to bring the furnace to the right temperature. This was nourishing the furnace.

This was also why Ye Haitian and Ye Haiyun preferred Ye Jingcheng. Every time, Ye Jingcheng would wipe the pill furnace clean, nourish the furnace again, and finally clean the pill refining room, arranging everything in an orderly manner!

At this moment, nourishing the furnace was still continuing, but unlike Ye Jingcheng's carefulness, Ye Haiyun almost pinched a spiritual seal, and the flames grew half a person high, emitting terrifying heat waves. The pill furnace instantly turned red-hot, and the furnace patterns on the pill furnace came to life, emitting spiritual light.

Clearly, in a few breaths, the furnace had been nourished.

The second step was refining the medicine. When it came to refining the medicine, for some reason, Ye Jingcheng felt that Ye Haiyun had slowed down a lot. If nourishing the furnace was done in one go, then refining the medicine became cautious and step-by-step.

Every detail was done with extreme care.

Ye Jingcheng had just read the pill formula, and there were still many doubts in his mind, which could now be verified one by one.

Even, in order to figure it out, he took out the borrowed Azure Spirit Pill formula and compared it one by one. This scene made the corners of Ye Haitian's mouth twitch.

But he still didn't say anything.

Ye Jingcheng had two jade slips in his hand. He couldn't touch the family's jade slip, but his own jade slip was filled with a large article, and he had even listed all kinds of possibilities.

Of course, he was able to do this so smoothly because Ye Haiyun was refining very slowly today.

Ye Haiyun refined three furnaces of Azure Spirit Pills, each furnace with ten full pills, with full pill patterns and rich spiritual energy.

It wasn't noon yet, and Ye Haiyun began refining Tempering Body Pills!

Ye Jingcheng's heart was also full of gratitude, but the desire to learn became even deeper.

At this moment, while Ye Jingcheng was learning, several cultivators had already come out.

They were a little puzzled because Elder Ye Haitian didn't ring the bell today to urge them.

This made them a little uncomfortable, and at this time, there were still cultivators inside continuing to refine, as if they were going to refine a new furnace, which made them quite regretful that they hadn't stayed a little longer.

As soon as they came out, they saw Ye Jingcheng watching Ye Haiyun refine pills.

The two also joined in and watched together, but after watching for a while, they felt that it was no different from what Ye Haitian taught. Most importantly, they didn't have the Tempering Body Pill formula, so they simply returned to the pill refining room to refine pills again.

It wasn't until Shen Shi (3-5 PM) that Ye Haiyun put away the furnace, and the door began to close.

Ye Haitian then began to ring the bell. Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but think of what Ye Haiyun said, that there was no absolute fairness in the family.

Now it seemed that the family would also favor those who worked hard and persevered!

One by one, the cultivators walked out, and Ye Jingcheng paid the spiritual stones, rented a room for three days, and also rented a pill furnace!

Then, from the spirit beast bag, he released the Crimson Flame Fox.

The Crimson Flame Fox chirped, feeling the high temperature. Its fur shone even more brightly red under the light of the fire.

"Little Flame, look, if you can provide flames like this earth fire in the future, I'll give you extra meals every Zi Shi (11 PM - 1 AM), from three meals to four meals!"
