The second floor of the Gray Mouse Elixir Shop.
"Just one more Spiritual Material to go!"
Xu Chang'an muttered to himself as he took stock of the Spirit Medicine and Spiritual Materials he had collected.
Over the past year, his Alchemy Skill had also improved significantly.
He had mastered the refining methods for several types of Tier Two Low Grade Elixirs.
For a common Tier Two Cultivation Elixir like the Nourishing Essence Pill, his success rate was already quite high.
Whenever he succeeded in refining them, he would consume every last one.
By accumulating Energy this way, he ensured no middleman took a cut.
'I still haven't fully mastered the refining method for the Transformation Pill.'
'I'm still missing one Spiritual Material, so there's no rush to collect it.'
...
For the next several months, Xu Chang'an's life continued in its extremely regular pattern.
