Chapter 465 - True Pill Making (1/2)

Ma Rong had realized that it was not her Qi that was the problem, but rather her connection with the Qi. Yin Qi was naturally cold and dark,  but never to the level as what Ma Rong was showing.

Which meant that the main problem lied with her body and not her Qi. So, instead of reeling in her Qi and not letting it overflow, she should be trying to reel in what her body did.

Meaning, she had to find a way to suppress her body enough to keep it on the same level as when she had it unawakened.

There were ways she could do that, but none of them felt as good as the most dangerous one she could think of.

Ma Rong sighed and looked back towards the Forbidden Fields, for that was the only thing that could truly suppress her.

A week had passed in the blink of an eye and Alex opened his eyes after cultivating for the entirety of the night. He now had around 20% of his total Qi as True Qi.

He had also learned that after 20%, his Qi wouldn't change to True Qi no matter what. Meaning, that even if he cultivated forever, his Qi wouldn't turn to True Qi if it was already there.

The next thing he had learned was that if he did not cultivate, and instead let his body gather Qi passively, then he wouldn't get True Qi at all.

So, if he ever spent all the 20% of the True Qi he had, he would have to go back and cultivate all over again to gather it. And given how he was using it, he definitely needed to do that.

For the last week, aside from cultivation, he had also started making True pills. While he wasn't really good at it due to having not as much True Qi, or due to energy in the pills being too strong to control with his barely formed True Qi.

Alex stood up and went back to the alchemy room to make the pills once more.

He put the cauldron down and started putting in his ingredients. He started with pills that had recipes where barely any of the ingredients were in the True rank so that he didn't have to worry about it much.

He put in his first ingredient and started stirring it. Since it was a common rank ingredient, he didn't have to worry much for now.

He did the same thing for the second ingredient, which was also a common rank ingredient, and soon the energies from those two ingredients were started to mix with each other, resulting in another energy.

The third ingredient was the one Alex needed to care about. It was the first True rank ingredient of the bunch.

Alex put it in and immediately sent out his True Qi to control it. Since he wasn't even in the True realm yet, the amount of True Qi he had could be considered to be barely any.
