Chapter 40 - 267

 Chapter 267 - Foundation Establishment Elixir

  He Song was now waiting for such an opportunity.

  As long as he could seize this fleeting opportunity.

  He would be able to successfully refine a furnace of Earth Spirit Pills, and in the future, he could at least be called a Master Alchemist.

  Alchemists were also divided into grades.

  Those who were able to refine Qi Practicing Stage pills could be called Alchemists.

  Those who can make Foundation Establishment Stage pills can be called Master Alchemists.

  Now, He Song was making a breakthrough from Alchemist to Master Alchemist.

  However, the difficulty of this breakthrough was extremely high.

  It required extreme concentration.

  Great patience.

  And even great luck.

  Only then could he successfully cross this hurdle.

  Successfully refining a furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills.

  After successfully refining a Batch of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills, although the success rate of continuing to refine Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills was still abysmal.

  However, as long as one succeeded once, one's heart gained confidence.

  In the next refining, constantly recalling the one time he had succeeded in his mind, the success rate would naturally increase gradually.

  Wait until you have tried countless times, really mastered the refining method for the Foundation Establishment Elixir.

  He was a true master alchemist.

  He Song had already begun to pinch and cast the spell, trying to fuse the medicinal liquids in the furnace together, and trying to stimulate the strongest medicinal power.

  However.

  Just as He Song was concentrating on his technique and continuously trying.

  The Blazing Sun Furnace in front of him suddenly shook violently.

  Along with the vibration of the Fiery Sun Furnace, the originally focused expression on He Song's face also became helpless at this moment.

  This time, the Blazing Sun Furnace's vibration was not a result of something happening to the Blazing Sun Furnace.

  It was not that the Fiery Sun Furnace had some quality problem.

  Rather, when He Song manipulated the medicinal liquid for fusion earlier, something happened during the fusion process.

  As a last resort, He Song could only fuse the medicinal liquid in the furnace with the medicinal dregs that had long since fallen to the bottom of the furnace after being scorched by the spirit fire, and then cast a spell to clean it up.

  In this way, there was no need to specialize in the medicinal liquid that had already produced an unknown effect.

  When the time came, it would be sufficient to take these medicinal dregs and bury them deep.

  He Song, who knew that this alchemy had already failed and had even destroyed the medicinal liquid with his own hands, then waved his hand slightly.

  The Fiery Sun Furnace immediately floated up a mass of dregs soaked with unknown medicinal liquid, flying to the side of the pool that was specially used to contain the dregs.

  Only after the Fiery Sun Furnace was emptied again, with no more dregs remaining inside, did He Song take another deep breath and continue to add pills to the furnace.

  Although the first furnace of pills had already been declared a failure.

  However, He Song had made preparations for so long, so naturally, it was impossible for him to retreat after only one furnace.

  In his storage pouch, he could still have a lot of spirit medicines, enough for him to splurge for a long time.

  However.

  Several days, half a month, and a month passed in a row.

  He Song, who had been in the alchemy room constantly trying to refine the Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill, never succeeded in refining a real furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill.

  The difficulty of refining a Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill was evident.

  One month later.

  He Song's eyes, which had always been glowing before, had now become ancient.

  Having failed too many times in a row, although He Song had been improving his techniques in order to allow himself to successfully refine a furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills.

  However, the continuous failures in alchemy had made him almost accustomed to the matter of alchemy failures.

  He had failed more often than not.

  When faced with failure again, there wouldn't be much mental fluctuation.

  Especially if one fails continuously within a short period of time, it makes one expect failure in their mind.

  Although He Song would still notice the reasons for his failures and improve his techniques after each failure.

  However, every time he improved his techniques and bypassed the cause of his last failure, new problems would appear.

  In this way, He Song was constantly in a cycle of problems appearing, then solving them, then problems appearing, then solving them again.

  Although the alchemy was improving by leaps and bounds.

  However, the dissipation of one's energy was also very drastic.

  Under such circumstances, He Song had even considered in his mind whether he would need to spend a long time before he could actually refine a furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills.

  This failure that kept failing with no head in sight had created some numbness in He Song's heart.

  The good thing was.

  Just as He Song was once again taking out the dregs from the Fiery Sun Furnace as he had done in the past, he was once again putting in new spirit medicines into the Fiery Sun Furnace and began to refine the Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill.

  At a certain moment.

  As a medicinal fragrance emanated from the furnace, He Song, who was about to remove the dregs from the furnace and put in new medicines, was suddenly stunned.

  It seems to have succeeded?

  In an instant, He Song's gaze, which was already ancient and unperturbed, immediately shone with a glint of essence.

  He only had the expectation of failure in his mind because of his constant failures.

  It wasn't as if the entire person had gone numb, and even if he saw the dawn of success, he would erase it.

  Now, the medicinal fragrance emanating from the Dan furnace, as well as the consistency in his hands as he pinched and cast the spell, all told him.

  This alchemy.

  Successful!

  The color of surprise in his eyes fleetingly passed, and the spell in He Song's hand suddenly changed.

  Soon, as a ray of light rose up from the Fiery Sun Furnace, several pills flew towards He Song's place along with this ray of light.

  Seeing this scene, He Song's hand immediately appeared in a jade bottle, will be in front of the several Foundation Establishment Spirit Dan all into the jade bottle.

  Waiting for everything to settle down.

  He Song held the jade bottle in his hand, and his eyes also looked towards the inside of the jade bottle.

  "Good, good, good, the color of the dan is pure and the fragrance is strong, although it's not a precious product, it's still a normal Foundation Establishment Spirit Dan."   

  Looking at the several Earth Spirit Pills in the jade bottle, He Song's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and his mouth repeatedly said good.

  It had been more than a month since the attempt.

  Refining dozens of times and consuming quite a few precious spirit pills.

  He Song finally succeeded in refining a furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills today.

  Although this furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill was only an Earth Spirit Pill that was relatively easy to refine among the Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills.

  But even so, it was still a Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill.

  After successfully concocting a furnace of Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills, He Song took a firm step on the path from alchemist to alchemy master.

  Next, as long as he recalled in his mind all the actions as well as techniques he had used during this alchemy, he would definitely be able to take his alchemy skills a step further.

  After a period of time, with enough experience in alchemy, He Song becoming a master alchemist would almost be the nail in the coffin.

  There wouldn't be any surprises.

  From this, it could be seen.

  The appearance of this furnace of Earth Spirit Pills was a great joy for He Song.

  After refining the first furnace of Earth Spirit Pills, He Song was only elated for a moment before immersing himself in alchemy again.

  With a burst of energy, He Song refined several more successive furnaces of Earth Spirit Pills.

  Unfortunately.

  It seemed as if the luck had been sucked away by the first success, He Song continuously refined several furnaces of Earth Spirit Pills, but none of them were successful.

  Seeing this, He Song had to stop and began to gradually ponder in his mind why his furnace of Earth Spirit Pills had succeeded.

  Where exactly did the reason lie.

  Was it his own alchemy technique that had been fine-tuned dozens of times?

  Or was it the fact that the medicinal effects of the elixirs he had put in were just right?

  Or, was it his own subtle control in fusing the medicinal liquid?

  Or was it related to something that he hadn't observed?

  After some contemplation.

  Letting the thoughts in his mind empty out, his heart was like still water.

  Only then did He Song open the furnace to refine the pills again, wanting to replicate the scene of his previous success.

  Since all of these reasons were possible, then he would try to lean on them as much as possible.

  He didn't believe that he could only succeed once, but not a second time.

  With this thought in mind, He Song quickly immersed himself in the refining of the Earth Spirit Pill again.

  However, this time.

  Compared to the previous bewilderment of not being able to see the end, He Song already had a firm goal in his eyes.

  He had already succeeded once.

  The next consecutive successes were already inevitable.

  There was confidence in his heart.

  There was control over the technique.

  In this way, successfully refining the Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill again could already be considered inevitable for He Song.

  In such a case, there was no failure!

  With He Song's attempts, after tens of failures once again, He Song finally succeeded once again, successfully refining the second furnace of Earth Spirit Pills.

  This time, He Song memorized all the steps he took to refine the Earth Spirit Pill and compared them to the first success.

  Soon, when the experiences of the two successes began to collide, it instantly created a great deal of inspiration for He Song.

  When it came to alchemy, what one should do was the right thing to do.

  In alchemy, when one should perform the spell casting, it was the right time to do so.

  During the alchemy

  Some subtle little details were discovered by He Song and incorporated into his own alchemy techniques.

  As He Song's alchemy techniques became more and more pure, he would naturally gain more insights into refining the Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill.

  In this way, his success rate in refining Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills would also increase.

  When the success rate increased, more insights about refining Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills would also erupt in He Song's mind, allowing his success rate in refining Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills to increase as well.

  In this manner, He Song's alchemy skill rapidly skyrocketed.

--

  Time was long.

  The years passed.

  In the blink of an eye, three years passed by.

  He Song traveled farther and farther on the path of refining Foundation Establishment Spirit Pills.

  After successfully refining the first furnace of Earth Spirit Pills, He Song had gained enough insights into the method of refining Earth Spirit Pills.

  With the knowledge and the confidence of having successfully refined it once, He Song's success rate in refining the Earth Spirit Pill began to soar.

  As a mid Foundation Establishment cultivator.

  Divine sense.

  Patience.

  Alchemy.

  Qi looking techniques.

  And so on and so forth.

  He Song had never lacked any of these things.

  What he lacked was merely familiarity with the method of refining Earth Spirit Pills.

  And after he had actually successfully refined the Earth Spirit Pill once, his familiarity with the refining of the Earth Spirit Pill quickly soared.

  The first furnace was successfully refined.

  The second furnace was successfully refined.

  The third furnace was successfully refined.

  Fourth

  As the good news continued to come in, He Song's alchemy techniques became more and more skillful.

  One furnace of earth spirit pills was refined by He Song and put into jade bottles, ready to be sold in other Immortal Cities.

  When that time comes, there will be a large amount of spirit stones coming towards He Song.
