Chương 155: Still Refining Traditional Pills Now
The external incarnation went by boat.
The main body of Chen Xia woke up then. He patted his sleeves and got ready for the next alchemy task.
Since it was something he had promised Zhang Daoming, he should take it somewhat seriously.
For instance, add two more points to the Qi Luck and pile it up a bit more.
Good luck is never excessive.
He hadn't practiced alchemy for ten years. With the accumulation of Qi Luck, if he practiced alchemy again, he should be able to display an extremely terrifying level.
As for exactly how terrifying it was, Chen Xia couldn't tell for sure.
Perhaps he could directly refine a low-grade Dao Medicine into a high-grade one.
If it was even more absurd, it might be that the properties of the medicine would change during the refining process, like changing from water attribute to fire attribute.
Whatever.
Anyway, when Chen Xia refined medicine, he never guaranteed what kind of pills would be refined out, but only ensured that he could refine them.
Chen Xia's preparation method was also quite simple. Every day, he would call the big yellow dog to roll the dice. There were three dice in total, and whoever got the higher points would win.
No magical powers or spells were allowed, and they only rolled the dice once a day.
Naturally, Chen Xia won every time with three sixes. Even when the dice were smashed, the side with six dots was still facing up.
"Weird." The big yellow dog just gave such an evaluation. Its dog head really couldn't figure it out. After all, Chen Xia couldn't secretly use magical powers or spells.
Then there were only two possibilities.
Either its luck was too bad, or Chen Xia's luck was too good.
Of course, it was also possible that both situations applied.
A month after Chen Xia started rolling the dice, Zhang Daoming finally came to him. He hurriedly called Chen Xia to leave quickly, saying that people from the auction house had arrived.
Chen Xia didn't delay either. He first picked up the dice, casually patted the dog's head, and then walked towards the house. After a while, he carried out the iron pot and the iron shovel.
"Still this set?" Zhang Daoming was stunned for a moment and asked.
"I've improved my alchemy technique a bit. You'll know later." Chen Xia replied with a smile.
"This... This is for refining medicine for the auction house. It's the key to our Alchemist Association building its reputation. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to do this?"
Zhang Daoming still tried to persuade him and added, "The main thing is that when you refine medicine like this, how can others promote it in the future? Stir-frying big pills with an iron pot or stir-frying Dao Medicines?"
"I'm not used to using other things. This is the most convenient." Chen Xia explained and then shook his head. "As long as I can refine it out, why should I care about these ordinary remarks."
This sentence was quite right. As long as he could refine it out, he didn't need to care about others.
Look, would an Emperor care about other people's remarks?
An Emperor would only kill those who made the remarks.
Zhang Daoming also thought it made sense and stopped persuading him. He took Chen Xia and quickly rushed towards the direction of the tip of the Heavenly Pavilion.
The journey wasn't far, and they arrived in a quarter of an hour.
Gao Zongming from the auction house was waiting. There were also several old men beside him. They were all wearing robes specially made for alchemists. Judging from their ranks, they were all Spirit Alchemists, at the same level as Zhang Daoming.
When Gao Zongming saw the two coming, he hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
"Greetings, Master. I, Gao, have come according to the ten-year agreement to ask Master to refine medicine. These several are the alchemists from the auction house. They want to learn alchemy from Master. If there is any offense, please forgive me, Master."
"It's okay." Chen Xia waved his hand. Let them watch. Anyway, they couldn't learn it.
Not to mention them, even Chen Xia himself couldn't learn how he refined medicine.
For the same pill, if you asked Chen Xia to refine it a second time, he might not be able to refine it out for sure.
After that, the several Spirit Alchemists also hurriedly clasped their fists and said respectfully, "Welcome, Master!"
Chen Xia looked young and seemed a bit unreliable, not like someone who had achievements in the alchemy world.
But in the matter of cultivation, the most feared thing was to judge a person by their appearance, because some Emperors might also look ordinary.
Even in ancient records, there was an Emperor who looked like a nine-year-old child.
So the several Spirit Alchemists didn't dare to be negligent at all, and their words were very respectful.
"Okay." Chen Xia nodded indifferently, put down the iron pot on his body and set it up properly, put the iron shovel aside, and then, among the puzzled expressions of several people, he stretched out his hand and beckoned.
"Bring the medicinal materials."
"What are you doing?" Gao Zongming was a bit confused and puzzled.
If it was for eating, it shouldn't be now, right?
Was he going to treat them?
He really couldn't understand. In thousands of years of alchemy, he had never encountered such a strange thing as setting up the pot first.
"Chen Xia has always refined medicine like this. Just bring the medicinal materials." Zhang Daoming helped explain.
Gao Zongming didn't say anything more. He took out the medicinal materials one by one from his storage magic weapon and introduced them at the same time.
"Ten-thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass, Jade Dragon Root, Water from the Center of the Star River, and the Inverse Scale of the True Dragon. These are basically the materials. I think Master can probably guess the pill to be refined, right?"
Chen Xia looked at him calmly and didn't reply.
The scene was a bit awkward.
Gao Zongming gave a dry laugh and continued, "The pill to be refined is a medium-grade Dao Medicine, the Jade Dragon Spirit Pill. Eating it can allow you to raise a Jade Dragon in your Sea of Consciousness, which is roughly the grand image of a dragon swimming in the sea of clouds!"
Chen Xia picked up the iron shovel, knocked on the iron pot, and nodded. "Okay, since that's the case, let's put them in the pot first. I've also changed my alchemy technique. This is the first time to use the new technique."
Hearing this, Zhang Daoming also became interested and watched carefully.
Only to see that Chen Xia first put the iron shovel aside, then fumbled in his arms for a while, and flicked slightly.
Then there were a few "da da" sounds.
Three dice appeared on the ground unknowingly, and all of them had six dots facing up.
There was a moment of silence at the scene.
Zhang Daoming touched his forehead. He really couldn't understand it more and more.
He had studied alchemy for thousands of years. He had heard of heating the furnace before refining medicine, cleaning the medicinal materials, and warming up the natal fire.
But it was the first time he saw someone roll the dice!
Was alchemy all about luck instead of strength?
"Okay, let's start." Chen Xia nodded and said.
Then, in the instant before everyone could react, he grabbed all the medicinal materials and threw them into the pot without hesitation.
"No, the medicinal properties are wrong. It's not like this. No..." Gao Zongming shouted twice and then opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound anymore.
Because Chen Xia had already started shaking the pot.
Gao Zongming felt that Chen Xia wasn't shaking the pot but him.
He was almost dizzy.
Zhang Daoming turned his head to look aside. He was already used to it, so he didn't look anymore.
Only real alchemists could know how much psychological harm this kind of alchemy technique would cause them.
The several Spirit Alchemists at the back were even more completely dumbfounded. They even suspected that they didn't come to watch alchemy today but to watch a chef cooking.
When Chen Xia was frying with gusto, he also knocked the iron shovel on the iron pot, suddenly slid it, making the sound of iron hitting iron, and then tossed the medicinal materials again.
Suddenly, the sky darkened, and dense thunderclouds gathered, and there were even red lightning bolts shining among them.
"Dao Medicine Thunder Tribulation?!"
Gao Zongming exclaimed in surprise. He really couldn't believe it. Had he really refined it out?!
"But... This... Although... But... Despite... Yet..."
Goodness, he almost used up all the conjunctions.
The thunder tribulation in the sky didn't last long and soon fell. A hundred-meter thunder pillar mixed with red lightning steadily hit Chen Xia.
Chen Xia blocked it with one hand above his head, easily withstanding it, as casually as blocking a bit of light rain.
And the pill in the iron pot also took shape. The pill thunder and the glorious light on it faded away.
It was a round pill that was emerald green and covered with dragon patterns. On it, one could even vaguely see a real dragon circling.
"High-grade Dao Medicine, Great Dao Jade Dragon Pill!"
Gao Zongming was extremely astonished and exclaimed loudly. Even the ending of his voice became sharp.
The several Spirit Alchemists who were watching were even more directly stunned and even started slapping themselves, doubting whether they were dreaming.
It was okay if you refined medicine with an iron pot. It was also okay if you could refine it out.
They could still reluctantly accept these.
But between this Great Dao Jade Dragon Pill and the medium-grade Dao Medicine Jade Dragon Pill, the most crucial Jade Dragon True Heart in the Overturning Sea Realm was missing.
Damn it, you didn't even need the most crucial material and directly refined it into a higher grade?!
"Is alchemy like this? But I... No, but..." Gao Zongming stammered and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Chen Xia touched his nose and smiled casually.
"What era is it now? Still refining traditional pills?"
