Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Chapter 70 - Knowing Alchemy
Qing Shui froze, as he stood there dumbly. The soft little hand that was light on his head made him instantly enter into a mysterious state of mind, as various emotions appeared – of satisfaction, peace, happiness.
Moreover, there was also a feeling similar to epiphany, causing knowledge to once again bloom in his mind. Qing Shui focused on his inner condition, in his sea of consciousness, not having any inclination what was happening outside.
The enlightenment! This is enlightenment!
Wenren Wu-Shuang's beautiful eyes looked in surprise at Qing Shui. He just stood there, lost in thought. A radiant joy developed on his face, and his eyes did not tear like they were enchanted in another dream world, but instead were very clear, and exuded an extreme sense of peace. Wenren Wu-Shuang, who had already gone through enlightenment, knew that/it Qing Shui was undergoing enlightenment as well.
At this moment, the area of content for the alchemy that was previously gray in color within his mind, began to blaze with a golden yellow ray within Qing Shui's conscious awareness.
Qing Shui did not know if the alchemy in this world was similar to the information he had in mind. Although he had previously identified a potion in this world that could be found within the [Western Fantasy], he wasn't sure if the pill concocted would be the same.
Qing Shui quickly checked the information that had just been opened, but to his dismay, the content that was unlocked, was only from the initial grade. Before this, Qing Shui felt very excited, as he discovered that/it was actually an unlocked alchemy recipe as well. Even if one had many spiritual herbs and potions, there was no way for an alchemist to concoct pills if he did not have a prescription. But….
Alchemy Recipe? Why is there only one !?
Golden Ointment Alchemy Recipe, the required ingredients are: Blood Stop Plant, Ginseng, Angelica Sinesis, etc ….
Golden Jade Aroma Recipe Alchemy Pill, Adequate Mastery Level, Information locked!
Martial Dragon Pill Alchemy Recipe, Adequate Mastery Level, Information locked!
Small Revitalize Alchemy Pellet Recipes, Adequate Mastery Rate, Information locked.
Refined Revitalizing Pellet Alchemy Recipe, Adequate Mastery Level, Information locked.
Glowing Buddha Seed Alchemy Recipe, Adequate Mastery Level, Information locked.
9 Souls Reincarnation Pellet Alchemy Recipe, Non Adequate Mastery Level, Information locked.
When Qing Shui finished examining all of the Alchemy Recipes, there were over 10 others, and he realized that/it had many other types of medicinal pills that were not present in the [Western Fantasy]. After all, at the end of the day gaming was still just a game. There are definitely things in reality that are not completely taken up by the game.
Qing Shui then looked at his Ruler Level experience bar, pitifully, it was 0%. He could now only concoct the Golden Ointment Medicine but even so, he did not have enough ingredients.
” Hmm, I haven't seen the potion method. ” Qing Shui hurriedly started to see the contents were unlocked again.
Potion Pill method: requires a suitable type of fire to purify the ingredients. Moreover, when all the ingredients were placed inside the cauldron, one had to continue activating the Ancient Strengthening Technique, in order to increase the success rate of the pill potion. The higher the Mastery Level, the higher the success rate.
In addition to the mastery experience, taking into account the level of the pill potion, the value of the ingredients, in addition to the type of cauldron, and the type of fire used, would all affect the success rate!
The type of fire required, at the very least, must come from one of the specially produced items named a campfire. Moreover, stonefire, earthfire, and after reaching the Xiantian realm, one could also use the Xiantian flame to refine pills. It was impossible to refine a pill by using the normal flames of firewood or charcoal.
It was not impossible, so to speak, but the flames arising from firewood or charcoal only had temperatures too low to be able to refine pills. The fire that is more often used by alchemists, is the fire of a stonefire or earthfire return.
To use Xiantian flames continuously, it was too draining of energy on cultivators. For pills that had a not-so-high and precious value, alchemists usually only used fire stones or campfires to refine pills. As for the firesoil, it was usually used by alchemists who had yet to reach the Xiantian level. Needless to say, the effect was much lower when compared to stonefire and earthfire.
The current Qing Shui, was in a miraculous state. Losing his sense of body in the world, and becoming something more like the Astral Projection. The current him, could actually enter into his sea of consciousness, when before, he could only see it like a spectator.
However, Qing Shui himself did not know that/that he was in the middle of enlightenment. The most basic state of being in enlightenment, requires the subject to enter a state of ignorance, a state in which a person forgets everything – even himself.
Wenren Wu-Shuang stood to the side as she stared at the motionless Qing Shui. This guy was too lucky, just a light rap in the head and he gained such a huge benefit?
He decided to leave Qing Shui alone as he descended. After all, there was no way of knowing how long Qing Shui would take to complete his enlightenment process. Initially, he almost mistakenly thought the stunned look on Qing Shui's face into him suffering a heart demon attack, and nearly woke him up. This would destroy the benefits it would gain from a full enlightenment attack.
” Wu-Shuang, why did you go down by yourself? Where is that little boy? ” Wenren Wu-Gou laughed with a hint of ingenuity.
’’ He is experiencing enlightenment. ’’
” Oh, okay. ” Wenren Wu-Gou replied casually.
” WHAT ?! ” She screamed, as her pupils widened, looking at her sister Wu-Shuang.
Wenren Wu-Shuang smiled as she explained, ‘’This little boy, seems to have demonic luck, he actually entered a state of enlightenment after I tapped his head with my hands, is unbelievable.’
Stunned for a moment, Wenren Wu-Gou took a breath as he recovered, ” State of enlightenment, is something that cannot be sought. There is no absolute guarantee that/that a person can enter that particular country. It was only due to karmic luck, and various combinations of exact circumstances. There were many who were cut off before they could obtain the full benefits bestowed upon them, and their cultivation was stuck there. This guy, just what happened to him. ’
”It's true. Lucky for him, he met me today. Otherwise, who knows how many years in the future it will take him to experience that enlightenment. ” Wenren Wu-Shuang slightly blushed as she smiled lightly.
’’ Wu-Shuang, this little brat is destined to become someone extraordinary. You know my judgment is never wrong. You should consider her as your future husband. After all, good men are hard to find. ’’ Wenren Wu-Gou said.
’’ Hmm, I have no intention to do so any time soon. I don't want to get married so soon. All I want to do now is focus on increasing my strength, and wait for big sister to reach Xiantian before I consider things like marriage. ” Wenren Wu-Shuang replied seriously.
Wenren Wu-Gou ignored the flushed cheeks on the features of the angel Wenren Wu-Shuang, as he continued shamelessly.
’’ I reached Xiantian? Forgetit. Having a sister like you at the Xiantian level could already be considered a gift from the heavens. As for Xiantian, I never harbored any hope of breaking through to that realm. My only hope is for you to live happily. With greater strength comes greater danger, which is why I want you to get acquainted with the little boy. Being able to reach the realm of Truth before Xiantian, I have never heard of anyone being able to do so. Only you are good to be friends with him. For matters of marriage, I will leave it to your own discretion. ’
