章 25: Tier 1 alchemist

Nick memorized the books of ingredients and took the cauldren out and grab a few different ingredients from his inventory from when he cleaned out the mythic dawn sects warehouse based on the kind of pill he wanted to make, a healing pill. Nick then began to add his qi into the cauldron until a fire formed inside the bottom of it ,after he got the fire to were he thought would be OK started haphazardly throwing in the ingredients and trying to purify them before a foul stench came out of the cauldron causing him to be surprised that he failed.'what went wrong i did what the book said ,bring fire to temperature,add ingredients,purify ingredients,shape pill,solidify pill, I don't get what went wrong?' Nick thought to himself. Not being able to stand it the system sooner up.

*Host is trying to do everything all at once rather than 1 at a time.*

'Oooh so that's the problem thanks system.'

*Do not thank system , host was making system look bad*

Nick was speechless at the system which basically told him to that he was making obvious mistakes in what he was doing before starting again. 'If you're so great why don't you make these pills then!'nick antagonized mentally.

*Activate creation mode Y/N?*

Stunned nick practically slaps himself for being so forgetful before he does activate the creation mode. Instantly nick feels an odd sensation like he was in the passenger seat telling were he wanted to go. Nicks body started going through all of the steps for making a pill almost automaticly performing like an alchemist grandmaster would, with shockingly efficient movements. if an alchemist were to watch nick right now they would almost be guaranteed to have some insights into alchemy due to how perfect the systems actions were. After about an hour of time a pleasant aroma rose from the cauldron filling the air while starteling everyone in the inn (He's still there) who all broke through into the body refinement tier at various levels due to the effect just the air was having on them. Meanwhile in nicks room nick was staring at the results of the pill making with exhausted eyes as creation mode drains him of energy as a price. There in the cauldron lay three cyan blue pills with a faint shine to them .

*Ding*

*Congratulations on creating the tier 1 pill :heavens rain (high), 20 DC awarded*

*Alchemist tier 1 obtained*

Nick no sooner got the notifications then did all the knowledge of a tier 1 alchemist brand itself to his mind.nick felt the pain of the knowledge before it disappeared just as quick. 'system why did I only get the alchemist skill after I made the pill?'

*Host has knowledge of alchemy but no actual experience so the skill was obtained after host created host first pill *

'But creation mode made it not me'

*creation mode operates based on the knowledge host currently has on the subject at it's most efficient in this case tier 1 alchemy knowledge .*

'So the knowledge dump after I acquired the skill was merely all of the hands on experience it would have taken to get the skill?'

*Affirmative*

Nick was thrilled knowing he basically just skipped the hardest part to becoming an alchemist ,the trial and error step thus saving him a mountain of practice materials which would be quite expensive Even for him. Nick quickly collected the pills and began meditation to regain his energy since originally core tier experts don't need to sleep thanks to the constant inflow of qi into their body.

Meanwhile in an office in the city lords manor a servant rushes in "sir sir !" the city lord looks up at the servant "yes what is it,why are you so anxious?"the servant speaks quickly afraid to anger the lord "the inn where the cultivator is staying just had an astounding incident occur!" The city lords eyebrow raises "oh?! Tell me more!"he commands. The servant tells the city lord about how the everyone in the inn smelled a sweet smell right before they all suddenly felt much stronger than before. The city lord starts grinning and laughing wildly before dancing around the room happily scaring the servant making them think the lord went insane. Seeing the servant look at him nervously the city lord composes himself again while still grinning "only 1 thing I know of that can cause something like that alchemy"
