Chapter 40: Pursuing the Pinnacle

Bai Xiaochun returned to the sect huhted After reaching his courtyard, he sighed

“I practice Immortal cultivation to live forever People like that who are always fighting and killing are complete lunatics”

He sat down in his courtyard, and began to organize the various items he had taken from Chen Fei and his friends They were by no means rich, which meant that Bai Xiaochun didn’t actually h he didn’t really care either way When he was finished, he took out the medicinal plants he had just purchased and examined them carefully for a while

Although he had a profound foundation in plants and vegetation, he actually didn’t havewith the plants themselves Now that he was able to examine these plants in person, his observations melded with the information that already existed in his mind He even scratched the surfaces of some of the plants off to examine their internal structure

After doing sohtful expression appeared on Bai Xiaochun’s face, and he pulled out the two rando at the fory, he focused on the other forthen their physical bodies

“Longevity Incense…” he murmured This particular medicine formula didn’t require the use of very many medicinal plants, only seven Further very special about the way they interacted However, by using the techniques of mentation and suppression, it was possible to draw up the power of those seven medicinal plants, crush them into a powder, and then turn that into incense

Two of the plants were even toxic If a cultivator consumed them, it would merely lead to teeks of diarrhea To mortals, however, they would be fatal

“There are many types of of spirit plants in Heaven and Earth Soested, whereas others need to be concocted into pills to bring out their optimum effects There are many which, because of their toxicity, can only be used to concoct incense” Muttering to himself, Bai Xiaochun took out the evity Incense, whereupon he began to study them in minute detail

“I’ht “Themedicine is the success rate Even the sih rate of potential failure

“I have ten sets of each medicinal plant I can’t waste them” Bai Xiaochun was a cautious person, and prefered to be confident before doing anything That was exactly how he had been back when he had absorbed hietation, and the current situation was the sa to concoct the medicine, he preferred to pore over the medicine formula first

Seven days passed After fully absorbing the information froan to analyze thewhen he finally opened his eyes Then, after a bit y replenishi+ng an to review it

Two more weeks passed Bai Xiaochun’s eyes were bloodshot, but by now, he felt that he completely understood all of the various medicinal plants that were part of these ht, he rose to his feet and walked out of the courtyard

Medicine concocting required a pill furnace, but those were quite expensive, more expensive than Bai Xiaochun could afford Thankfully, in the Medicine Concocting Pavilion, there were pill furnaces available for use by disciples in their , at the price of a few merit points

The Medicine Concocting Pavilion was on the east side of Fragrant Cloud Peak, not too far from where Bai Xiaochun lived It wasn’t like the 10,000 Medicines Pavilion, which was always tee Pavilion was a relatively quiet and peaceful place After all, even on Fragrant Cloud Peak, people who qualified to concoct medicine were relatively few in number Of that small number, quite a few already had their own personal pill furnaces, and didn’t need to come here to rent one

Bai Xiaochun paid for the right to use the Medicine Concocting Pavilion facilities for an entire iven a personal workshop, complete with a protective spell formation that prevented any interference from outside while he worked

Clutching the wooden key he had been given, Bai Xiaochun quickly found workshop 13 and walked inside It wasn’t very large, and was completely empty except for the pill furnace and the flame which burned beneath it

After sitting down cross-legged, Bai Xiaochun took a deep breath, then examined the pill furnace closely When he tried to y, he found that he could cause the fla the entire room with intense heat At the saht red

Drawing upon his foundation in the Violet Qi Control Art, he perforot used to the intense heat It didn’t take long before he became familiar with how to control the level of the fla to produce the various types of plants and vegetation

“The Longevity Incense is too iet faeneral concoction process, then I’ll try I’ll start out with the Spirit Replenishi+ng Pill That’s a tier-1 pill, useful for the fifth level of Qi Condensation and lower” Bai Xiaochun was now completely determined Expression very serious, he mentally reviewed thePill, then began to concoct

He produced the firstthe leaves to fall off Eyes gleay out, forether into nine beads of sap, which he then dropped into the pill furnace

A plopping sound could be heard, and a green mist instantly rose up within the pill furnace Bai Xiaochun’s eyes gleahtly, and as soon as the h the air as he extracted the stems and veins of the medicinal plant, which he then tossed into the furnace as well Occasionally, he adjusted the fla that more and more mist built up inside the furnace

None of thatas Bai Xiaochun pulled out the secondit briefly, the medicinal plant bloomed with flowers, the petals of which he plucked and put into the pill furnace

Time passed Bai Xiaochun was co as he pulled out one hth plant, and his eyes were shi+ning brightly as he stared at the pill furnace As he continuously adjusted the temperature of the flame, sweat dripped down his face

Two hours later, acould be heard from inside the pill furnace Black smoke poured out, to be absorbed by the roo, and a frown could be seen on his face as he stared at the charred slag inside of the pill furnace

“Failure…” hehis chin on his hand, he began to think After reviewing everything he had done, he didn’t begin another batch immediately After all, he was a cautious person, and whether it ca medicine, he alanted to do it in the most prudent way possible

He conte that ti his first attempt at least a thousand times That helped him to identify at least fifty problematic areas Finally, he took a deep breath, rested for a ain heated up the furnace

The actual ti Four hours later, the pill furnace eain, and when the sain became visible
