Chapter 29: Pharmaceutical Medicine
Chapter 29: Pharmaceutical Medicine
Early in the morning, Xu Chen couldn't wait to take a flight as soon as he got up.
"Go to Spiritual Medicine Mountain."
"8 spirit coins, let's go~"
The wind spirit bird spread its wings and flew high towards the Spiritual Medicine Mountain.
The Daxi Sect ranks at the bottom among the five major sects in Leizhou, but its side sects are famous for alchemy and refining.
Not to mention being at the top of the list among the five major sects, it is at least in the upper position.
Lingyao Mountain is one of the places where the alchemists of Daxi Sect grow spiritual medicines, and there is a big market here.
Sitting on the back of the Wind Spirit Bird, Xu Chen looked ahead with some excitement.
“Although you can only refine pills when you reach the Treasure Body Realm, you can learn how to make medicine first. If the Holy White Space recognizes it, then there will be more things you can do.”
The Wind Spirit Bird traveled more than 3000 kilometers before landing at a mountain full of medicinal herb fields.
There is a market at the foot of Lingyao Mountain. In addition to selling elixirs and magical medicines, there are also various small Taoist temples that give lectures on elixirs and medicine making for a fee.
The market was a bit deserted in the early morning, but some small temples attracted a large number of people.
Walking in the market, Xu Chen looked left and right and felt that he was walking into the teaching and training path of his previous life.
"365 lessons from zero foundation to alchemist, only 3000 spirit coins."
"100 lessons to become an alchemist with 30 recipes for free. We guarantee that you will learn until you master it. It only costs 2000 spirit coins."
"Top Alchemy Grandmaster Phantom Tutorial 10 Spirit Coins, 30 Pill Recipes for Free."
Xu Chen looked at the various plaques and finally found what he needed in a relatively remote corner.
"Pharmacist, 50 lessons quick training, only 800 spirit coins."
Compared with the magnificent storefronts of other small temples, this store looks a bit shabby and there is no one inside.
Just as Xu Chen was about to step in, a voice sounded from behind him.
"Junior brother, if you want to learn medicine, go directly to the sect's Sutra Pavilion."
"Introduction to Pharmaceutical Manufacturing 1 to 12, you can learn by yourself, don't waste spirit coins."
Xu Chen looked back and saw the shopkeeper in the opposite shop shouting at him.
“After you learn the art of pharmacy and advance to the Treasure Body Realm, you can come to me to sign up for the alchemy class.” The shopkeeper said enthusiastically.
Xu Chen was a man who listened to advice. He withdrew his foot that was about to step into the store and turned around to bow to the shopkeeper.
Just as he was leaving to go to the sect's scripture library, the shopkeeper spoke again.
"Junior brother, there is a spiritual medicine shop at the entrance of the market, called Wanyaofang. You can buy a few more drug formulas and corresponding spiritual medicines there, just as a practice."
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
In the Sutra Library, Xu Chen found the Introduction to Medicine Making in the Alchemy area. There were 12 volumes in total. All of them could be rented for two spirit coins a day, and buying the whole set would cost 100 spirit coins.
After buying these 12 volumes of Introduction to Pharmaceutical Preparation, Xu Chen went to the area of Qi and Blood Foundation Building Methods and looked at the Qi and Blood Foundation Building Methods he had selected.
"As long as we master the Six Styles of the Holy Ape, everything else will be easy."
After Xu Chen returned home, he began to study Volume 12 of Introduction to Pharmaceutical Preparation.
In the following time, Xu Chen practiced during the day and studied the 12th volume of Introduction to Pharmacy at night. After midnight, he entered the Holy White Space to challenge.
Three months had passed unknowingly, and on this day, Xu Chen made the first dose of medicine.
"It's not easy. No wonder people say that all those alchemists are poor."
Looking down at the hemostatic powder he had made, Xu Chen felt that it was not easy.
To get started in pharmacy, one has to remember the shapes, names and characteristics of tens of thousands of medicinal materials. Each medicinal material has a different processing method, such as drying, storing in a dark place or slicing.
During these three months, Xu Chen spent more than 2000 spirit coins just on buying these medicinal herbs and the equipment for processing them.
"When I become successful in the future, my nickname will be the Liver Emperor."
After getting the first portion of the hemostatic powder, Xu Chen started to make the second portion. This kind of hemostatic powder was sold to the medicine shop for 1 spiritual coins each, and in line with the principle of not wasting, he made as many as he could.
At night, after making 5 doses of hemostatic powder, Xu Chen entered the Holy White Space with excitement.
At this time, three wooden doors stood in the Holy White Space. Seeing this scene, Xu Chen was ecstatic.
"I knew my guess was right!"
Xu Chen couldn't wait to push open the wooden door with the word "Pharmacy" marked on it.
Entering the wooden door, Xu Chen felt as if he had come to the Spiritual Medicine Hall. There was a special medicine table in the center of the Spiritual Medicine Hall.
"Make ten portions of Hemostatic Powder with a quality of 80 or above. If you achieve the goal, you will be rewarded with the insight of making perfect Hemostatic Powder. If you fail, you will be punished with three thunderbolts."
"Damn, it's different from defeating the clone, but it's still the same routine."
As Xu Chen spoke, he selected herbs and began to make the hemostatic powder. He processed different herbs in different ways, and then began to heat and grind them carefully.
After the first batch of hemostatic powder was finally made, a number floated on it.
"64, does this represent its quality?"
Xu Chen started making it again, and he kept making the 20th portion of hemostatic powder, but his highest score was only 69.
At this moment, a voice was heard above the room, and faint thunder was heard.
"The penalty for production failure begins!"
A huge bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket suddenly struck Xu Chen, and before he could react, he was smashed into pieces.
Xu Chen's consciousness incarnation condensed in the holy white space, and opened the door to pharmacy.
As a result, as soon as he entered, he was struck into ashes by a huge thunder.
The consciousness incarnation recovered again and entered again.
Only after three huge thunder strikes could Xu Chen enter the wooden door of the pharmacy normally.
"Damn it, if the Saint Ape Six Styles hadn't used it for so long, I really wouldn't have been able to hold on."
"Even making a medicine is so difficult, are you really not going to give me any chance at all?"
Xu Chen sat in front of the pharmaceutical platform with a depressed expression, but he soon regained his fighting spirit.
"Keep working hard, you will succeed one day!"
Early in the morning, Xu Chen got up with numbness all over his body, ate, and started a day of practice.
"Junior Brother Xu, why do I feel like something is wrong with your practice today?" Niu Dali looked at Xu Chen in confusion.
"There was a problem with the circulation of Qi and blood yesterday. It will be fine in a few days."
"Let's continue sparring, it won't get in the way."
After several months of training, Niu Dali's strength has now reached the level of ten tigers. Xu Chen is now finding it difficult to practice with him.
After completing a day of training, the man and the cow sat by the river.
"Senior Brother Niu, are you ready to practice the second set of Qi and blood foundation-building methods?" Xu Chen asked.
"I plan to practice. I'm 15 this year. According to the time it takes for our golden armored thunder bulls to develop bones, I can still practice for another 10 years."
"For the second set, I am going to practice the Thunder Body Building Method of our Golden Armored Thunder Bull Clan."
"If I can reach the level of Tong Yi within 6 years, I will practice the third set."
“If I can cultivate all three sets of Qi and blood foundation building methods to the level of Tongyi, I will be able to have the power of one dragon and nine tigers.”
"Then you will be eligible to join our clan's Leishan Army."
Speaking of this, Niu Dali became excited.
"Junior Brother Xu, what are your plans?"
