Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Alchemy Recipe? The first level of the Soulshake Bell.
Qing Shui looked at the girl's pretty face. Although her beauty and beauty were not as beautiful as a soul like Canghai Mingyue, and her charm could not compare to Huoyun Liu-Li either, her appearance could still be considered high-grade.
’’ Hehe, this recipe is not bad but others cannot find it because the ingredients are too difficult to obtain. Take a look, if you feel that/it is suitable and worthy, I'll give it to you. If not, we'll discuss it again. How about that? ’
The girl reached out her snow-white hand that was previously covered by her thick sleeves.
Qing Shui received the silver page of the recipe that the girl missed, while staring at her beautiful smile. When he finally turned his gaze to the silver courtyard, the two words at the top of the courtyard left him dumbfounded.
Beauty pellets!
Qing Shui was very clear that/it was the next pellet that had to be opened in his sea of consciousness was none other than a beauty pellet as well.
He quickly glanced at the rest of the recorded information. The ingredients needed are, ’Jade Bamboo, Zhenzi Woman, 1,000-year Earth Essence, Musk Fragrance, 1,000-year blood cockatrice, and 5,000-year-old turtle blood!
As he studied the info, he sensed that/it was a recipe locked in his sea of consciousness undergoing some changes, as if there was more info added to it. The previously half-filled experience bar underwent a complete transformation when the locked beauty pellet recipe became unlocked. Replacing it is a new experience blank bar that requires 500,000 exp points to fill.
Windwater Primal Pellet!
It was another pellet that Qing Shui was familiar with. However, Qing Shui knew that/that the people in this world would not know of this because it was something that came from [Western Fantasy]. He could not be certain of the effect, as the effects of the Five Dragon Pellets and the small pellets revitalizing them were all different from what he knew in his memories.
Qing Shui wanted to immediately look at the alchemy recipe, but after thinking that/it girl was still there, he decided to wait for her to leave before seriously pondering over the recipe. It wouldn't be too good if he stood there stupidly with a beautiful girl in front of him.
Thus, he glanced at the recipe quickly as he discovered that his/her Beauty Pellet did not have much effect. The only notable effect was being able to maintain one's appearance for 30 years!
Qing Shui was silent. Why are Beauty Pellets unlocked after Large Revitalizing Pellets? At first he still thought that/it was because Beauty Pellets had some other special effects that would not be inferior to Large Revitalizing Pellets. He was very disappointed …
’’Since I've seen your recipe, I'll accept it as a trade. Yet the effect of maintaining just looking for 30 years is nonsense .. And is there even 1,000 years of kokkatri still alive …? ” Qing Shui asked somewhat desperately.
’’Are you an alchemist?’ ‘The girl was surprised by Qing Shui's question, and questioned him.
” I can be considered as one, yet I can only concoct certain types of medicinal pellets. Unfortunately, all the recipes I had with me required ingredients that were almost impossible to gather. ” Qing Shui replied with a sigh, thinking of the recipe for Five Dragon Pellet and Large Revitalizing Pellet. He has the same limitations for the Beauty Pellet recipe.
” Since that's the case, can you sell Beauty Pellets when you manage to structure them in the future? ” The girl flicked her eyelashes, looking at Qing Shui with expectant eyes.
” You think I can make it? ” Qing Shui confusedly glanced at the girl. He still remembers the girl saying that/it was almost impossible to successfully concoct this pill. Then why did he say something that hinted otherwise now? Is he afraid that/that he will not agree to trade with her?
The girl shook her head lightly with a smile, ” Speaking honestly, logically, I can't believe you'll make it. But my intuition says otherwise. Not only that, I'm sure you won't take long to finish concocting it successfully. ’
Qing Shui expressionlessly looked at the girl. Women's intuition is the most frightening thing in the world.
’So, what are the Beauty Fruits? Have you heard of them? Qing Shui knew that/it this ingredient was the most important ingredient needed to successfully make a Beauty Pellet. She could use other ingredients to replace the other ingredients listed in the recipe but not so for Beauty Fruits. ’’
” Surprisingly, I have never heard of this or found any reference despite the fact that/that I have read over ten to hundreds of thousands of books. ” The girl decided to answer honestly, not afraid that/it Qing Shui would change the objection to trade with her.
” Maybe they are not called Beauty Fruits in this world from the nine continents? ” Qing Shui frowned as he asked.
’’ Hmm, I don't know about that. It may be so but we do not have a picture for such reference, whenever ‘Beauty’ fruit ingredients appear in the recipe of the herb, the recipe will be expressed as ‘mati’, causing people to be helpless. There is someone who found a fruit called Green Fruit that is said to have the same properties as the Fruit of Beauty, and sold at a very expensive price. For the masses, the Fruit of Beauty is also known as the Green Fruit. In the end, during the alchemical prophecy, many experiments failed one after another and were eventually declared a scam. This caused the Green Fruit to become famous in the field of alchemy, almost all alchemists knew of the existence of the green fruit after that. ’
Seeing Qing Shui leave, the girl knitted her brows slightly before him as well, deciding to leave the area.
Qing Shui returned to his residence as he held the courtyard that described the process of the Beauty Pellet potion in his hands. He wondered why his experience bar was instantly filled the moment he read it. Perhaps, observation is a kind of experience as well, and that's why it happens …
After returning to his residence, the first thing Qing Shui did was to enter his spatial region before sinking deep into his sea of consciousness.
Improved Recipes for Beauty Pellets: Beauty Fruit, Fruit Boost Energy, Improve Fruit Freshness, Enhance Fruit Endurance, Physical Fruit, Bamboo Jade, Women Zhenzi, 1,000 Years of Earth Essence, Musk Fragrance, 1,000 Years of Earth Essence, 1,000 years of blood cockatrice, 5,000 years of turtle blood, 1,000 years of Lingzhi, 1,000 years of Ginseng, and 1,000 years of Fleeceflower Root.
’Why is the recipe in my mind much more complete than the one recorded on the page?’ ’Qing Shui asked, confused.
And as she continued to look down on the effect, she was no longer confused, because the effects of the Beauty Pellets recorded in her sea of consciousness were too damaged.
Maintain appearance for 30 years, and 20% increase of strength!
Not only could it maintain its appearance for 30 years, it also had the effect of a Great Revitalizing Pellet. No wonder this pill opened after the great revitalization pellet. Qing Shui was suddenly struck by the urge to laugh.
Qing Shui wanted to laugh because the materials that were hard to come by for others, he could easily obtain. Currently his spatial realm already contained most of the ingredients, and the potion was around 300 years old. Considering his Flowers of Life, even though he currently only had one stalk, he could save at least 10% of the time it took before he harvested the ingredients.
His greatest advantage was the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal, as not only could he enjoy the effects of time-dilating the spatial region, as not only was he able to enjoy the effects of time-dilating the spatial region, there would also be rare and exotic trees and fruits popping up as he rose to the spatial surface.
He did not care much about the maintenance of appearance for 30 years, but after reading one's strength would be boosted by 20%, Qing Shui's heart was filled with fire, he HAD TO find the Beauty Fruit. It should be a King-grade level 2 medicinal pellet, and only the beauty effect would cause many people to go crazy.
Retreating from his sea of consciousness, Qing Shui was slightly depressed. He already had no mood to continue forging, and from now on, he could only stare helplessly at the alchemy recipe in his hand. How could he not be depressed? Five Dragon Pellet simply did not have Moon Grass, Large Revitalizing Pellet did not have Phoenix Tail, and now, for Beauty Pellet, he did not have Fruit Beauty.
Deciding not to think too much, Qing Shui then decided to turn his attention to cultivating. For the Ancient Strengthening Technique, he was still at cycle 89 of the Qi circulating, unable to break through to 90. After that, he practiced one round of all the other techniques. After he finished his regime, just as Qing Shui decided to break out of the spatial realm, he suddenly recalled about the soulshake bells he had stored here before.
On that day, Qing Shui didn't really feel the impact. Now, he picked up the soulshake bell, wanting to test it out in his fireb. Then again, he feels that/that he should not overdo it because if something goes wrong, it will be too late for regret.
Holding the bell, he injected his energy from the Ancient Strengthening Technique into the bell as he began to shake the bell so lightly.
’’ Ringing, ringing. ’’ The shrill, hair-raising, and ear piercing sounds reverberate in the air.
….. No effect?
Qing Shui saw that the/it distant firebird had no real reaction to the bell shaking. The energy injected into the soulshake bell to shake it was already exhausted. If he wanted to use it again, he would have to inject even more energy.
And this time when he injected more energy into the bell, the bell actually turned a purple color. With a glint in her eyes, Qing Shui activated the Heavenly Sight Technique as he turned his gaze to the bell.
At the first level, the Soulshake bell had a certain probability of causing a demonic beast within 200m to enter a frenzied state, unable to distinguish between friend or foe, attacking everything around it.
Qing Shui clearly remembered that/that he saw nothing when he used the Heavenly Sight Technique to probe the Soulshake bell for the first time. This time, he even listed the distance and the effect. So, this bell is real! This is exactly what he wanted.
Again, he shook the bell. This time, the intensity of the ear piercing sound was clearly several times louder than before. The amount of energy injected this time was more than double than before. Of course, he did not aim for the bell in his firebird. Looking at the bell that was currently shining with beautiful colors in his hand, he knew that/it was the curse of all demon beasts. He wondered, when these bells reached level nine or ten, would the power of the bells be able to cause those demonic beasts to die on the spot immediately because he stole their souls.
