Chapter 33 (2/2)

Although they were not as precious as the supreme-grade ginseng, they were still valuable herbs!

Also, it seemed that every time, it wasn’t difficult for the little chick to fetch the herbs, which meant that there was a high number of assorted spirit herbs in the red mist.

If Yun Shu could use them properly, this place would turn into the best herb garden in this world!

Yun Shu had made up his mind to properly study supreme pills when there was a chance. At this time, the little chick returned with two spirit herbs in its beak.

Seeing them, Yun Shu immediately exclaimed, “That’s what I want!”

One of the spirit herbs was pure white, and he instantly felt that pure Yin air emanating from it. Yun Shu took the white spirit herb with both his hands from the little chick’s beak, his heart beating fast.

“Give me a second. I need to try something!” said Yun Shu to the little chick.

Then he took out the furnace. After putting another supreme-grade ginseng together with that pure white spirit herb into it, Yun Shu started using his Spirit Qi to refine them again.

This time, the furnace didn’t burn the ingredients. The two airflows of Yin and Yang slowly turned the ginseng and the herb into liquid and blended them together into one whole mix.

1The process sounded easy, but it was, in fact, quite challenging. Yun Shu had great control over his Spirit Qi, along with a pair of golden pupils. Nevertheless, producing these twelve pills was still very difficult for him.

That was not yet the end, though. Turning the blended liquid into twelve pills was just one of the steps. During the process, he even destroyed two by accident.

After another two hours, the work was finally done, and Yun Shu was totally exhausted by then.

Fortunately, he had successfully made the first set of pills in his life.

Yun Shu couldn’t wait any longer. He hurriedly opened the lid of the furnace and looked inside. There they were, so round and beautiful, their fragrance wafting into his nose.

Maybe it was just Yun Shu’s illusion, but the moment Yun Shu inhaled that scent, he felt greatly refreshed.

Holding the ten pills in his palm, Yun Shu suddenly noticed something.

“This is… This is the Alchemical Halo?!” Yun Shu blurted to himself.

Among the ten pills in his palm, there were three covered in a soft halo.

Yes! That was the halo!

Elixirs were divided into nine grades according to their efficacy. Above the nine grades, there were mysterious pills that only existed in legends.

The higher the grade of a pill was, the better the efficacy it had.

Moreover, pills and pills within the same grade could be further divided according to their conditions.

There were four different conditions: Defective, Ordinary, Fine, and Supreme. These conditions were decided by the materials used and the techniques applied.

Defective and Ordinary pills were the most common, while Fine pills were rare. An alchemist who could produce Fine pills was highly respected.

As for supreme pills…

Only top-notch alchemy masters could refine them.

The Alchemical Halo would only show upon Fine pills and above. So, there were three Fine pills in the first set of pills ever made by Yun Shu.

Yun Shu couldn’t believe his own eyes!
