Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 487: Alchemy



"Master Li, don't be stingy, bring out the best to entertain Mr. Zhang!" After sitting down, Ancestor Yu reminded.

Li Shiming smiled and brought out Fourth Grade Spirit Spring Water and Fourth Grade Spirit Tea, then summoned the Five Elements Nine Revolutions Furnace, igniting the Red Sun Spirit Fire inside.

As the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea and Fourth Grade Spirit Spring Water were placed in the Five Elements Nine Revolutions Furnace, the Red Sun Spirit Fire heated the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea to its fullest, releasing the best spirituality of the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea and Spirit Spring Water.

This was a technique he recently mastered, using the methods of an Alchemy Master to maximize the spirituality of the fusion of Fourth Grade Spirit Tea and Spirit Spring Water without directly brewing the tea.

"Master Li, you shouldn't have, I never received such treatment before!" Although Ancestor Yu had not yet tasted the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea, he could smell its distinctive aroma, and feigned a displeased tone.

"It was just a random thought while I was idle, and recently, I happened to acquire this Fourth Grade Spirit Spring Water!" Li Shiming explained with a smile.

He lightly tapped his finger on the pill furnace, making the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea water inside fly out, dividing into three and landing in three third-grade teacups.

He sent each third-grade teacup to the two Nascent Soul Ancestors, gesturing with an inviting hand.

"Master Li is quite the connoisseur; this Spirit Tea has been taken to its limits by you, admirable!" Ancestor Zhang Kai initially didn't pay much attention, but after taking a sip of the Fourth Grade Spirit Tea, he was surprised and praised it.

"You're too kind!" Li Shiming smiled and waved his hand.

"Just from this alone, one can see Master Li's level in alchemy; the rumors are indeed true, it seems I've come to the right place this time!" Ancestor Zhang Kai continued.

At this moment, Li Shiming noticed a hint of helplessness on Ancestor Yu's face, as if Ancestor Yu didn't want Ancestor Zhang Kai to acknowledge his abilities. Enjoy the story by reading on M|V|LE%MPYR.

His thoughts raced; it appeared the power behind Ancestor Zhang Kai was immense, so much so that even Ancestor Yu of Wuqing Mountain didn't dare offend him.

"Your demeanor is extraordinary, my small skills are but a humble display!" Li Shiming replied with a smile.

His words subtly inquired about Ancestor Zhang Kai's identity.

"It seems Master Li isn't very familiar with the Cultivation World, I am from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect!" Ancestor Zhang Kai discerned the meaning behind Li Shiming's words, revealing his identity with a smile.

Inwardly, Li Shiming understood why Ancestor Yu's attitude was so polite, mixed with reverence, as it was a Nascent Soul Ancestor from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

This was akin to when at the Beishu Continent, Golden Core cultivators of the Shushan Sect encountered independent Golden Core cultivators, whose status was significantly lower than those from major sects, and naturally held considerable reverence.

"Ah, so you are a senior from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, my apologies for being disrespectful!" Li Shiming solemnly bowed again, this time out of respect for the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

"I too am here with a request, having heard of Master Li's alchemy prowess. This time the sect's Alchemy Master is preoccupied, and I urgently need a Fourth Grade Spirit Pill, so I've come to find you!" Ancestor Zhang Kai politely returned the salute and spoke to Li Shiming.

"I'm sure Ancestor Yu has mentioned the rules, may I ask Ancestor Zhang's intention?" Although Li Shiming had decided in his heart to refine pills for Ancestor Zhang Kai, he still asked aloud.

This is the rule of Alchemy Masters, which no one can break.

"Initially, I had some doubts, but after seeing Master Li, I understood, one share of resources to advance to Nascent Soul, no problem, as long as Master can refine the spirit pill for me, I will naturally provide a share of the resources to advance to Nascent Soul!" Ancestor Zhang Kai said with a smile.

He produced a Jade Scroll, a Jade Box, and a storage bag, placing them in front of Li Shiming.

Li Shiming opened the Jade Box, inside was a Fourth Grade Spiritual Medicine, the storage bag contained some second and third-grade spiritual medicines, and using his Divine Thought, he entered the Jade Scroll, finding an elixir recipe.

No wonder it was needed so urgently, it was a recipe for a Fourth Grade Detoxification Spirit Pill.

A poison capable of affecting a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator must naturally be fourth-grade; apart from resisting it with cultivation, one would need to take a corresponding Fourth Grade Detoxification Pill.

Such a Fourth Grade Detoxification Pill isn't universal, it only targets a particular type of fourth-grade poison.

Thus, it's often challenging to have them all prepared; though fourth-grade poisons are rarely encountered, there are nonetheless many types.

"Come back in ten days!" Li Shiming nodded and said.

Ancestor Zhang Kai observed Li Shiming's demeanor and finally nodded; he saw the confidence in Li Shiming, evidenced by his calmness from dealing with Fourth Grade Spirit Tea to examining the Fourth Grade Pill Formula, which demonstrated absolute self-assurance.

He was left with no other recourse; for a major sect like the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, there were naturally available Alchemy Masters.

However, the sect recently obtained a batch of spiritual medicines from an outer continent, and all three of their Alchemy Masters went into seclusion to study them, making it impossible for him to request their assistance.

Even as a Nascent Soul Ancestor, the three masters, capable of refining Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, wouldn't come out for such a task, nor could he afford to offend all three at once.

Upon inadvertently learning of Li Shiming's reputation, particularly due to Ancestor Yu's initial hints and subsequent attempts to keep Li Shiming from taking on Fourth Grade Spirit Pill refining tasks, Ancestor Zhang Kai discerned something amiss.

Either Li Shiming was a fraud with no actual alchemical ability, or his skills were excellent, and Ancestor Yu wanted to monopolize him for a time.

So he came, using his status to make a request; no matter how unwilling Ancestor Yu was, he wouldn't refuse.
