Chapter 1352: Chapter 1357: Got Scamd
“This is…”
Looking at the dicinal herbs in the cauldron turning charred and gradually being burned away, Xia Liu was dumbfounded.
“You’ve injected too much Spiritual Energy, causing the fla’s intensity to increase too much, directly burning the herbs.”
Liu Xian’er said calmly.
“Oh, then let’s try again.”
“Alright, ten Spirit Stones.”
Looking at Liu Xian’er reaching out her palm to ask for Spirit Stones, Xia Liu’s face was covered with black lines.
This is a total rip-off!
To refine a Pill, how many Spirit Stones does one have to use to buy the materials…
He could already imagine how, in a humble sect, a pharmacist who hadn’t yet refined a Pill could hardly have the resources to accumulate experience.
The profession of an alchemist is highly resource-consuming and expensive.
However, considering the various benefits of becoming an alchemist, many people would grit their teeth and persist.
Once becoming a rank one alchemist, one can continuously refine Pills.
At that ti, one can purchase materials at a low price and sell Pills at a high price.
A sure profit, and it also increases alchemy experience to aim for higher tiers in the future.
Xia Liu understood this principle, so after a mont of frustration, he very straightforwardly handed over the Spirit Stones.
After getting the herbs, he imdiately entered the refinent stage.
Liu Xian’er continued to guide from the side: “Yes! Just like that, keep increasing the Spiritual Energy.”
Bang…
Another muffled sound ca from within the dicinal cauldron, and the herbs once again turned black, then were entirely burned by the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire.
Xia Liu remained silent, directly took out ten Spirit Stones to buy materials.
Liu Xian’er smiled delightedly, handing the herb packet to Xia Liu.
However, not long after, the cauldron exploded again.
Refinent failed!
Refinent failed!
Refinent failed!
Ten tis in a row, a hundred Supre Grade Spirit Stones vanished.
Finally, Xia Liu stopped.
He looked resentfully at Liu Xian’er without speaking.
“Hey, hey, what’s with that look? Don’t think I guided you wrongly. You’re a novice and haven’t even controlled the fla well. Without hundreds or thousands of failures, how could you possibly succeed?”
Liu Xian’er began to preach earnestly.
But Xia Liu wasn’t listening.
He had a feeling that Liu Xian’er was deliberately leading him into a trap.
The Spirit Stones consud were like a bottomless pit.
If, as she said, it took hundreds or thousands of failures, he didn’t have that many Spirit Stones to waste.
Also, the ti for the bet was nearing.
Under Liu Xian’er’s guidance, he had failed ti after ti.
If you said she had ulterior motives, there were plenty of evidences.
Swindled!
Thinking carefully, those three words kept revolving in Xia Liu’s mind.
“This ti I’ll refine it myself, don’t say anything.”
“Hehe, you still bla . Since you’re insistent, I won’t say a word.”
Liu Xian’er shifted her tone, since Xia Liu had sensed the issue, she couldn’t let him succeed.
“I don’t bla you, I just want to try it myself to prove my skill.”
Xia Liu said smilingly.
“Suit yourself, ten Supre Grade Spirit Stones.”
Liu Xian’er had no pleasant expression, even feeling a bit regretful.
Guiding him, she could make him fail in the shortest ti possible.
If he refined on his own, failure was certain, but it would take longer.
The ti for the bet was nearing.
She wasn’t sure how many more Spirit Stones she could swindle from him.
Thinking of this, Liu Xian’er felt quite helpless.
But since Xia Liu requested, she could only accommodate him.
If it takes longer, so be it. After all, she’s still profiting.
“Here.”
Xia Liu cheerfully handed over ten Supre Grade Spirit Stones.
At the end of this round, he had already lost a hundred and ten Supre Grade Spirit Stones.
Truly a heavy loss.
This girl is such a rip-off!
“Very well, here are your herbs.”
Liu Xian’er used Divine Sense, and a slightly larger packet of herbs appeared in her hand.
“Hmm? Why are these materials different from before?”
With a sweep of Divine Sense, Xia Liu imdiately noticed sothing wrong.
“That batch is finished, I had to use a different kind. Don’t worry, they’re all ingredients for rank one Pills.”
“Are they really just ingredients for rank one Pills?”
Xia Liu was skeptical.
“Seriously, you think I’d give you ingredients for rank two Pills?”
Liu Xian’er was speechless.
This guy is just too suspicious.
Let alone, he actually guessed right.
Indeed, these were materials for a rank two Pill Restoring Pill.
In the market, they should cost three Spirit Stones.
The reason Liu Xian’er gave Xia Liu the materials for a Pill Restoring Pill.
Was due to her concern that he might successfully refine a rank one Pill.
If he switched to refining a rank two Pill, he’d absolutely fail.
Without a solid foundation, like a toddler who can’t yet walk, how could he possibly run a hundred ters?
Trying to refine a rank two Pill is just a dream.
“Alright, let
give it a try.”
Xia Liu felt a bit awkward, as he was only just beginning to learn alchemy and couldn’t discern what rank the Pill ingredients were.
Hopefully, it will succeed…
Praying, Xia Liu’s Divine Sense surged, and with a change in hand arts, the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire ford and shot into the cauldron.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Letting the Holy Fire burn for a while, Xia Liu guided the herbs into the cauldron one by one.
This ti, Liu Xian’er provided five herbs.
Among them, three pieces of Spirit Grass had very low ranks and pitifully little Spiritual Energy.
The other two roots had equally little Spiritual Energy.
Xia Liu slowly refined the Spiritual dicine using the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire.
This ti, he didn’t add any Spiritual Energy midway.
Only using the lowest intensity of Heavenly Gang Holy Fire.
Unexpectedly, this refinent was quite successful, and the impurities from those five materials were completely removed, leaving only the essence.
Facing the five golden liquid strands, Xia Liu’s Divine Sense surged, using a special Power of Divine Consciousness to gradually guide and gently rge the essence of these five materials together.
As ti passed, Liu Xian’er sensed sothing amiss.
The materials she gave Xia Liu were for refining a rank two Pill Restoring Pill.
He shouldn’t possibly succeed in refining it.
But as ti went by, why hadn’t he stopped?
Was it that the materials were already burned and he didn’t stop the fla, just pretending, waiting until ti passed, then suddenly getting dispirited, to claim he almost succeeded?
Hmm.
That must be it.
Once she thought of this, Liu Xian’er felt at ease.
But just as Liu Xian’er was imrsed in her imagination, suddenly, the fla inside the dicinal cauldron began to weaken.
“Hehe, did you fail? It’s okay, only through constant practice and improvent of technique can one succeed.”
Knowing Xia Liu couldn’t have succeeded, Liu Xian’er continued comforting him: “Don’t be troubled, back then I had to refine three hundred tis before I…”
Suddenly, Liu Xian’er couldn’t finish saying the word ‘three’.
Because a unique fragrance wafted out of the dicinal cauldron.
Simultaneously, Xia Liu turned his head with a pleased smile: “Sorry, it seems like I might have succeeded in the refinent…”
Poof!!!!
Seeing Xia Liu’s face full of smiles, Liu Xian’er almost spat out blood; he actually succeeded in refining it…
