As the Spirit Medicine was refined, she used her Divine Sense to slowly knead the spiritual liquid within the Pill Furnace together.
Su Bai's hands danced gracefully.
She cast a series of incantations at the Pill Furnace.
Finally, with a single point of her finger!
The Pill was complete!
Su Bai was the slowest to begin Alchemy.
But she was the fastest to have her Medicinal Pills emerge.
She showed off her skills a little.
From one furnace of Medicinal Pills, seven finished products were yielded.
Five were High Grade, and two were Medium Grade.
She hadn't used her full strength.
Medicinal Pills of this quality would not be difficult to surpass the second round.
So Su Bai retrieved the Pills and turned off the heat.
She directly handed the refined Foundation Establishment Pill, along with the remaining Spirit Medicine, to the Elixir Cauldron Sect Disciple standing outside the arena.
"These are the Medicinal Pills I refined. If there's nothing else, I'll go rest over there first."
Under the Elixir Cauldron Sect Disciple's gaze, which was like he was looking at a monster, Su Bai placed the Medicinal Pills and Spirit Medicine in front of him.
She turned to leave.
It was then that the Disciple reacted.
He quickly said:
"Um, Fellow Daoist, your name, please state your name, and also, please show me the token you used to register for the Alchemist Convention."
Hearing the words from behind her.
Su Bai pulled out her token.
"My apologies, I forgot about that."
"This is the token."
"I am Su Bai from Danfu Pavilion in Xingluo Market."
After the Disciple recorded Su Bai's name and the quality of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Only then did Su Bai leave.
When Su Bai went to rest aside.
She was the only Alchemist resting early.
Everyone else was still diligently practicing Alchemy.
Those with some skill.
Could still maintain their Dao Heart.
At this point, they had already refined about five Spirit Medicines.
But those who were around Su Bai earlier.
Had already suffered a broken Dao Heart.
Su Bai's actions made it impossible for them to maintain their state of mind, and they made frequent mistakes when refining Medicinal Pills.
Spirit Medicine was wasted one after another.
Not to mention those Alchemists.
Even the Elixir Cauldron Sect, who distributed the Spirit Medicine, felt heartache at the sight.
They organized this Alchemist Convention.
The Foundation Establishment Pills refined here.
Would later be used as rewards.
To display the grandeur of a major Sect.
They would definitely give one Foundation Establishment Pill to each of the one hundred and thirty-two excellent Immortal Seeds who passed all the assessments of the Six Major Sects.
Once these rewards were distributed.
How many Cultivators would flock to them when they opened their Sect gates to recruit Disciples in the future.
While Su Bai sat in the rest area, closing her eyes to meditate.
On the Elixir Cauldron Sect's side, the Disciple had already sent the Foundation Establishment Pills refined by Su Bai to Senior Gao.
"Senior Gao, these are the Medicinal Pills refined by Senior Su Bai."
"She seems to be a Cultivator from Xingluo Market, who opened a shop called Danfu Pavilion, primarily selling Medicinal Pills and Talismans."
Hearing information about Su Bai.
Senior Gao raised an eyebrow.
"Oh! Danfu Pavilion, I have some impression."
Senior Gao picked up the Foundation Establishment Pill and observed it carefully.
The Medicinal Pill was round and full, emitting a peculiar medicinal fragrance.
Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be faint lines on the surface of the Medicinal Pill.
"High Grade Medicinal Pill!"
It wasn't surprising to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill to High Grade.
He could do it too.
What surprised Senior Gao was that.
The Medicinal Pills refined with Su Bai's Alchemy technique could still ensure quality.
There was much to learn from this technique.
"It can be learned!"
After this second round of Alchemy ends, I must keep Fellow Daoist Su here to have a good exchange.
If he could learn this technique.
The strength of the Elixir Cauldron Sect would rise another level.
After observing the Medicinal Pills.
Senior Gao did not let the Disciple leave directly.
Instead, he continued to ask about Su Bai's situation.
"Fellow Daoist Su's Danfu Pavilion deals in Medicinal Pills and Talismans, is she also quite proficient in the Dao of Talismans?"
It wasn't that Senior Gao was asking this for no reason.
It was because Su Bai had already shown such remarkable performance in Alchemy.
Then, since she dared to sell Talismans alongside Medicinal Pills, presumably, they wouldn't be too far off in quality either.
What if Su Bai was noticed by the Divine Talisman Sect?
What if they tried to snatch her away from the Elixir Cauldron Sect!
That's why he asked.
The Disciple had already prepared for this when he came over.
He knew Senior Gao would definitely ask about Su Bai.
While he was below.
He had already looked up some information about Su Bai in advance.
He shook his head.
"No, in Senior Su's Danfu Pavilion, there are Second-Order Medicinal Pills for sale, but Talismans are at most First-Order High Grade."
"It seems her research into Talismans is not as deep as her Alchemy."
Hearing the Disciple say this.
Senior Gao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
One person's Alchemy skills were already so formidable.
If she was equally skilled at drawing Talismans.
Then Senior Gao would have to suspect if Su Bai possessed some special Physique.
Otherwise, a person's energy is limited.
Having to Cultivate and practice Alchemy.
If drawing Talismans was also so powerful.
How were they supposed to live?
If Su Bai knew what Senior Gao was thinking.
She would probably laugh out loud.
Because her Talisman Master skills were also Second-Order Medium Grade.
There really wasn't much difference from her Alchemy skills.
Perhaps the only difference between Su Bai and them was that.
When she practiced Alchemy, Spirit Medicine was free, she could use it as she pleased.
She also didn't worry about wasting it by refining a useless Medicinal Pill.
Spirit Medicine was cultivated by Creation Essence.
Good Medicinal Pills were sold.
Useless Medicinal Pills were fed directly to Xiao Qing.
To let Xiao Qing utilize her poison Spiritual Root.
Su Bai only spent half a day refining Medicinal Pills.
The remaining four and a half days were spent meditating and Cultivating.
Just after the fifth day passed.
At the moment the sun rose on the sixth day.
"Time's up, Fellow Daoists, the second round of Alchemy has ended. Please invite Senior Gao to comment on the Medicinal Pills."
When the Elixir Cauldron Sect Disciple loudly shouted this.
Many Alchemists immediately looked dejected.
They had failed.
Three portions of Spirit Medicine, including failures along the way.
One portion required refining over thirty Spirit Medicines.
The Elixir Cauldron Sect gave enough time.
Generally, for a Second-Order Alchemist to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill, two or three days would be sufficient.
Their failure was due to using an unfamiliar Pill Furnace and too much interference from their surroundings.
In the end, only seventy people successfully refined Foundation Establishment Pills.
Half of them were Low Grade Foundation Establishment Pills.
The remaining Medium Grade Foundation Establishment Pills accounted for forty percent.
High Grade Foundation Establishment Pills were only ten percent.
Senior Gao was not surprised by this result.
He gathered the Alchemists together.
Then he took out Low Grade, Medium Grade, and High Grade Foundation Establishment Pills, and began to explain them one by one.
Since it was an Alchemist Convention.
It naturally couldn't be all competition.
After the competition, there would also be explanations and discussions.
And discussions with Fellow Daoists from all sides.
Otherwise, wouldn't this Alchemist Convention just be a name?
So those Alchemists who failed.
Even though they failed, they gained a lot this time.
At least they would know what to do if they encountered similar situations next time.
They could also get to know and make friends with the surrounding Alchemists.
And those Alchemists who refined Low Grade Foundation Establishment Pills.
After listening to Senior Gao's explanation.
They also understood where the trick to refining Foundation Establishment Pills lay.
With more practice when they went back.
They would surely make progress.
The quality of Medium Grade Foundation Establishment Pills was already very good; within the Elixir Cauldron Sect, apart from Medicinal Pills refined by a Steward or Elder that could reach High Grade.
Medium Grade Foundation Establishment Pills were already top-tier Medicinal Pills that could appear at auctions.
Senior Gao shared some of his insights on this.
For example, when forming the Pill, which type of Spirit Medicine liquid should be blended first for better results.
Or when retrieving the Medicinal Pill, what force was best to use when taking it out with an incantation to stabilize the Medicinal Pill.
After discussing both Low Grade and Medium Grade Medicinal Pills.
Senior Gao took out the High Grade Medicinal Pill.
But he directed his gaze towards Su Bai.
"For this High Grade Medicinal Pill, this old man doesn't have much experience. How about we invite Fellow Daoist Su to come up and talk about it?"
