Terran Guardian - Chapter 2665
Chapter 2650 Immortal Pill
Five thousand years in the outside world.
The first level of space is five hundred thousand years.
Shen Changqing is now completely accustomed to the long passage of time. To him, five hundred thousand years is just a blink of an eye and he does not feel too much about it.
at the same time.
He also took a look at his current information.
…
Name: Shen Changqing
Age: 5026183/100000000
Cultivation: Peak of Immortal King
Essence: 0
…
“Five million years old!”
Shen Changqing sighed.
Five million years!
It also stirred up some emotional fluctuations in his calm heart.
During the five million years, Shen Changqing spent most of his time in seclusion practicing, so when he looked back on the past, he did not feel as if it was a lifetime ago.
These five hundred thousand years.
Shen Changqing is studying the art of alchemy.
As for the purpose, it is naturally for the subsequent refining of corresponding elixirs.
Even though Shen Changqing has not yet truly refined the third-level Condensing Immortal Pill and the Ascension Immortal Pill, he is more confident than before.
This day.
As soon as Shen Changqing thought about it, his figure disappeared from the first level of space and appeared in the second level of space in an instant.
I saw that many powerful elixirs in the fairy field were ripe.
Shen Changqing picked some spiritual herbs and then went directly to the first level of space.
…
The alchemy furnace appears.
Shen Changqing closed his eyes and reviewed everything about refining the Immortal Pill. After a long time, he opened his eyes, summoned the Green Jade Spirit Flame, and began to refine the pill.
Hundreds of thousands of years ago, Shen Changqing had already made preparations to refine elixirs.
even.
He went to a place in Tianzong where the immortal energy was relatively strong and collected a gourd of immortal spring water.
The so-called fairy spring is actually spring water that is imbued with fairy air and rich spiritual energy.
In the past, Shen Changqing used spiritual springs to refine pills, but this time, he used immortal springs.
The reason for doing this is mainly because there was no way to get the fairy spring before. Now that fairy energy has appeared in the Tianzong, some places can produce some fairy springs over time.
Even though the immortal energy contained in these fairy springs is not too strong, they are still contaminated with immortal energy and are different from ordinary spiritual springs.
Shen Changqing was seen doing two things at once. He was manipulating the temperature of the jade spirit flame, and at the same time, he was throwing in the corresponding spiritual medicines in order according to the refining method of the Immortal Pill, and then removing the impurities in the spiritual medicines to leave the purest essence.
Every step.
Shen Changqing is as smooth as flowing water.
During these five hundred thousand years, he has already thoroughly mastered the elixir of immortality.
Although this was the first time he actually started to refine the elixir, in his mind, Shen Changqing had already simulated refining the elixir countless times.
“Gather!”
When it came to the last step, Shen Changqing let out a low shout, and then saw several streams of light shooting out from the alchemy furnace. Then he waved his hand to disperse the jade spirit flame, and at the same time a terrifying suction force burst out from his sleeves, sucking all the streams of light into his sleeves.
The world is hidden in the sleeves!
This is a little trick that Shen Changqing imitated from The Universe in the Palm, and then made a slight modification.
To put it simply, this method is like turning a mustard seed into Mount Sumeru and creating a world within one’s sleeves.
Say it is imitation.
In fact, the world in Shen Changqing’s sleeves is much more mysterious than the world in his palms.
After all, at his level, his vision is beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators. Although his palm of the universe is also impressive, it is easy for Shen Changqing to discard the dross, extract the essence, and then integrate it to create a magical power of his own.
now.
Five pills lay quietly in his sleeves.
Shen Changqing flipped his palm and the pill appeared in his palm.
There were five Hunyuan Ruyi pills, surrounded by the rhyme of Taoism, and one could tell at a glance that they were extraordinary.
“Five pills, of ordinary quality, this is pretty good!”
Shen Changqing nodded slightly.
Although taking the Immortal Ascension Pill can increase the chance of breaking through to the Immortal King level by 10%, if the quality of the pill can be improved to the fine or even perfect level, the chance of breaking through can actually be increased further.
The quality product is 1.5%.
Perfection is 20%.
This breakthrough probability is written on the recipe of the Immortal Pill. It can be seen that it was already summarized by our predecessors, so there will be no problem.
Looking at the five immortality pills, Shen Changqing had no dissatisfaction.
Being able to succeed in refining five pills for the first time is already quite good.
After all, this is also an Immortal King-level elixir. Even Shen Changqing, as a top fifth-level alchemy grandmaster, cannot guarantee a 100% success rate.
In fact.
To refine this kind of elixir, a success rate of 20% to 30% is already quite good.
So now that it has been successful, Shen Changqing is of course very satisfied.
Then.
Shen Changqing started to refine the second round of immortality pills.
The spiritual medicines were put in one by one, and suddenly, the green jade spirit flame shook slightly, and a mixed smell of strong fragrance and burnt smell immediately emanated from the green jade cauldron.
“Failed!”
Shen Changqing’s expression remained unchanged. He just waved his sleeves and removed all the elixir residues from the green jade cauldron.
Immediately following.
He started the third round of alchemy.
…
fail!
fail!
fail!
…
Later, Shen Changqing failed in refining five times in a row, which made his originally calm expression change and his brows slightly furrowed.
Then.
Shen Changqing adjusted his state and started the sixth refining.
What a pity.
The sixth time still failed.
The same thing happened the seventh time.
It was not until the eighth time that Shen Changqing succeeded in refining it.
This time.
There are only three successful pills.
Later, Shen Changqing refined it twice more. The first time failed, but the second time succeeded.
If the last time is successful, three pills will also be produced.
So far.
Shen Changqing refined the Immortality Pill ten times and made a total of eleven pills.
“Successful three times out of ten refinings, this probability is normal!”
Shen Changqing took a deep breath and regained his composure.
The success rate of 30% was about what he expected, but the fact that he had failed several times in the past made Shen Changqing feel a little uneasy.
But now, the success rate from ten tests is acceptable to Shen Changqing.
Looking down at the eleven pills in his hand, Shen Changqing shook his head and laughed.
“In that case, the first refining result was the best. Not only was it successful, but five pills were made at once. The number of pills made in the next two times combined was only one more than the first time.”
However, success or failure, as well as the number of pills produced, are not something Shen Changqing can control.
As for the former, it is related to the experience and means of alchemy, but also to the mentality.
As for the fact that he was able to make five pills on his first try, Shen Changqing thought that it was because he had accumulated 500,000 years of experience and now it was as if he was being helped by God.
Then.
Shen Changqing took a rest and then continued to refine the immortality elixir.
…
Time passes.
A hundred years passed in a hurry.
Shen Changqing spent a hundred years in the first level of space, concentrating on refining pills.
In the previous twenty years, Shen Changqing was refining the Immortal Pill, and he consumed almost half of the materials he had for refining the Immortal Pill.
He didn’t stop until the number of immortality pills in his hand exceeded 500.
And then.
It is to refine the third-level immortal pill.
Compared to the Immortal Pill.
The third level of the Immortal Condensing Pill is more difficult to refine.
Even with Shen Changqing’s current level of alchemy, the success rate of this kind of elixir is less than 10%.
Refined twenty times.
It’s almost possible to succeed once.
In addition, the spiritual medicines needed for the third-level immortal pill are all top-notch. Even if Shen Changqing controls a hundred acres of immortal fields, he dare not waste such resources wantonly.
so.
Every time he failed in refining pills, Shen Changqing would stop, summarize the reasons for his failure, and then improve the problems he encountered in refining the pills before he could continue to refine the second batch of pills.
What a pity.
The Immortal King’s top-grade elixir is indeed difficult to refine.
Even though Shen Changqing deliberately summarized and digested all the problems he encountered, when it came to actually refining the product, the chances of success still did not increase much.
Until now.
Shen Changqing only had two hundred third-level Condensing Immortal Pills in his hand, but he had used up a full one thousand golden orchids, the main spiritual medicine, not to mention the other spiritual medicines that were consumed.
“According to the price in the upper realm, an Immortal King’s top-grade elixir is about one thousand lower-grade immortal stones, and an Immortal King’s top-grade spiritual medicine, if not calculated by the recycling price, is priced at five hundred lower-grade immortal stones!”
“Now, one thousand golden orchids are used to refine two hundred third-level immortal pills, which is equivalent to a direct loss of three hundred thousand low-grade immortal stones.”
“But the problem is that the other spiritual medicines involved are also very valuable. Strictly speaking, the cost of a low-grade elixir worth one million is at least around 700,000.
So, based on the cost, my loss is actually about 500,000!”
Alchemy is a loss.
It can’t be compared with selling elixirs.
But you have to understand this.
Not everyone has the Seven Profound Divine Tower, and not everyone has the means to directly cultivate and ripen spiritual medicines.
The actual survival rate of normally growing the Immortal King’s elixir is extremely touching. It is impossible for other cultivators to have Shen Changqing’s 100% survival rate.
And then.
Shen Changqing is now a top-level fifth-grade alchemy grandmaster, so his success rate in refining fifth-grade top-grade elixirs is not high, but if he were to refine elixirs of other grades, then it would naturally be different.
For example, for the Immortal Ascension Pill mentioned above, Shen Changqing refined ten furnaces of pills and finally succeeded three times, making a total of eleven pills.
Assuming that one low-grade Immortal King elixir costs 200 low-grade immortal stones, Shen Changqing earned a total of 2,200 low-grade immortal stones this time. Then, looking at the cost, the cost of a furnace of elixirs is about 110 low-grade immortal stones.
So.
The actual profit, if calculated based on the cost, is almost double.
You can see it from here.
In fact, the speed at which alchemists earn immortal stones is not slow at all.
The main issue is what grade of elixir to refine. (End of this chapter)
