The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Hiss…”

In the room, there was an unusual sound of flames coming from the pill furnace.

The medicinal herbs being refined inside instantly turned into ashes.

A hint of burnt smell permeated the air.

The eleventh attempt at the Breaking Through Adversity Pill ended in the expected failure.

Su Jingzhen’s expression remained unchanged.

At this moment, his heart was extremely calm.

He gained experience in the Breaking Through Adversity Pill through every failure.

“What a strong burnt smell, and there seems to be a hint of medicinal fragrance in it. Is he refining pills inside?”

But the smell emanating from inside could already be clearly smelled outside.

Her expression once again became complicated.

Yan Xia, although not awakened to spiritual roots, was not ignorant.

“So he’s actually an alchemist, no wonder so many people value him.”

As Yan Xia muttered to herself, she couldn’t help but smile bitterly. “I must be blind…”

Even though her parents were convinced that she had a special physique, the current leader of the Evil Moon Sect couldn’t confirm it.

And now she had fallen into a servant girl, completely unaware of her future fate.

In the cultivation world, even if one might have extraordinary potential, with her current situation and her lowly parents, changing her fate would still be extremely difficult.

After sighing, Yan Xia could only sweep from here to the outside with a broom.

After Yan Xia left, Luo Yuebai once again entered Su Jingzhen’s courtyard.

He sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Naturally, he noticed that Su Jingzhen had started refining pills again.

“It seems that Friend Su is indeed breaking through to a certain grade of alchemist.”

He didn’t go back to Clear Wind Mountain himself.

He searched carefully there three times but found nothing.

Even if he searched thirty times, it would probably be the same.

He obviously paid more attention to Su Jingzhen’s current state.

As the burnt smell continued to emanate from the small courtyard, time gradually passed.

Nightfall quickly approached.

At this moment, Luo Yuebai sighed softly. He knew that it was probably unlikely for Su Jingzhen to break through to the next grade of alchemist today.

Just as he was about to leave without causing any disturbance, a pure scent of pills suddenly drifted out of the room ahead.

“It seems like a rich aroma of pills! Is this… a third-grade standard?”

Luo Yuebai just stood up and was about to walk out, but suddenly stopped.

He looked towards the room, with a look of shock.

“Is it third-grade or second-grade? But this doesn’t seem right either. The pill fragrance I smelled last time at Peach Blossom Alley was obviously extremely rich, clearly surpassing the third grade. Or… is it that his success rate in refining first or second-grade pills is extremely high, allowing him to refine a large quantity at once?”

Thinking of this, Luo Yuebai’s eyes lit up again.

He sat back down, seemingly wanting to wait for Su Jingzhen to come out.

At this moment, in the room, Su Jingzhen looked at the purple, round pill that had just flown out of the pill furnace.

Eighty portions of medicinal herbs had already been used up, with forty portions consumed.

At this forty-first portion, success finally came!

Out of the previous forty portions, apart from those turned into medicinal residue, he only harvested five mediocre pills.

But the Breaking Through Adversity Pill wasn’t like the Qi-replenishing pill or the Green Spirit Pill, consumables that could be casually used. It was unlikely that anyone dared to use these mediocre pills.

“It’s finally done. Although this time was a bit more difficult, from this moment on, I am officially a second-grade alchemist.”

As he muttered to himself, Su Jingzhen carefully took out a jade bottle and stored the Breaking Through Adversity Pill in it.

At this moment, there were still thirty-nine portions of Breaking Through Adversity Pill medicinal herbs in his storage bracelet.

But he didn’t rush to continue refining.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, and those forty portions of medicinal herbs were not wasted in vain.

Now that he had successful experience, Su Jingzhen was confident that even if the Breaking Through Adversity Pill didn’t reach a hundred percent success rate, surpassing the average second-grade alchemist should be extremely simple.

“Although I have successfully advanced, this setback was not as great as I imagined. Perhaps when I accumulate enough points next time, I should consider raising my spiritual roots level again.”

His mysterious spiritual roots couldn’t be considered outstanding.

In Su Jingzhen’s opinion, to maintain such a high success rate in second or even third-grade alchemy, at least the spiritual roots needed to be upgraded to the Earth grade.

As he thought this, Su Jingzhen’s gaze turned to the small pill furnace.

He muttered to himself again, “A good horse deserves a good saddle. Now that I’m a second-grade alchemist, this furnace seems a bit inadequate for me.”

This wasn’t Su Jingzhen being arrogant.

It was just that a good pill furnace could indeed improve the success rate and even the quality of the pills.

And his current pill furnace was indeed a bit low-grade.

Su Jingzhen pushed open the door and saw Luo Yuebai sitting in the pavilion.

“Friend Su, did you succeed in advancing?”

Being unable to contain his curiosity any longer, Luo Yuebai asked directly.

He believed that since Su Jingzhen was openly refining pills here, there would be no more concealment about his status as an alchemist.

At least not in front of him, Luo Yuebai.

“It’s not as impressive as Senior Luo imagines, just second-grade.”

Su Jingzhen had nothing to hide about this.

A second-grade alchemist was highly respected in a small place like Linjiang City, but in the Qingzhou region, it was somewhat ordinary.

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuebai frowned slightly, “Then Friend Su must have refined quite extraordinary pills when advancing to the second grade, right?”

Of course, he knew that pills of the same grade could sometimes vary greatly in quality.

Since Su Jingzhen didn’t choose to hide his alchemy, he naturally didn’t mind satisfying Luo Yuebai’s curiosity.

And he was destined to stay in the Evil Moon Sect for a considerable period of time.

Showing some things appropriately could sometimes be more advantageous to him.

So he directly took out the jade bottle.

“Fortunately, I managed to refine a Breaking Through Adversity Pill!”

Seeing the Breaking Through Adversity Pill in Su Jingzhen’s hand, Luo Yuebai’s expression once again became astonished.

“Friend Su, are you sure you only just advanced to second grade?”

Su Jingzhen looked at him puzzled.

“In this regard, there’s no need for me to deceive Friend Luo.”

Hearing this, Luo Yuebai smiled bitterly again, “Friend Su is truly extraordinary. Although I know nothing about alchemy, I have heard that the Breaking Through Adversity Pill is one of the most difficult types among second-grade pills.”

“With Friend Su’s current level, even some simple third-grade pills should be within your grasp. Some cultivators may breakthrough two realms in one go due to their opportunities, but it’s the first time I’ve seen an alchemist advance two grades in one go.”
