Kapitel 15: Chapter 15 Pure Elixir
Translator: 549690339
"Do you know how others start practicing alchemy?"
Lin Jing shook his head. He didn't know any other Alchemists and was completely self-taught.
"Generally, they would refine two to three furnaces a day, and at most four to five furnaces."
"After each furnace, they would stop to rest and reflect."
"Once the reflection was complete and their state fully recovered, they would then start making the next furnace and continue accumulating experience."
"Your thirteen furnaces in one day must have been refined consecutively, right?"
Lin Jing hadn't expected that one needed to rest after refining an Elixir Furnace. Embarrassed, he said,
"Indeed, that's the case."
"That's why I said that your talent in alchemy isn't bad, managing to refine successfully even under such conditions."
"......"
Lin Jing was somewhat speechless. It seemed that he had indeed benefitted from the System Space.
"However, even if your alchemy talent is high, you can't become complacent. You still need to do as I've advised, honing your abilities and taking it step by step."
"I understand. Thank you for your instruction, Elder Yu," Lin Jing said as he clasped his hands in gratitude.
At that moment, Lin Jing suddenly remembered something. When the System Space initiated the Alchemy Room, there was an increased chance of producing a Pure Elixir.
This 'Pure Elixir' was something he had not heard of before, and he didn't know what it was. He took the opportunity to ask Elder Yu about it.
"Elder Yu, I've heard by chance of an Elixir Medicine called the Pure Elixir. Could you tell me what a Pure Elixir is?"
After hearing Lin Jing's question, Elder Yu frowned and asked,
"It's not recorded in your alchemy book?"
"Elder Yu, the alchemy book that I've been studying does not have such record," Lin Jing replied.
"It seems that your alchemy book is indeed somewhat flawed."
"Since that is the case, I will introduce it to you."
Elder Yu started speaking, and Lin Jing pricked up his ears to listen attentively.
"Actually, this has to start with the components of the Elixir Medicine. You should know that impurities are present in Elixir Medicine, and even Supreme Elixirs are no exception."
"These impurities can't be completely expelled from the body. Over time, with long-term use, they will result in Elixir Toxins."
"Moreover, the lower the quality of the Elixir Medicine, the more impurities it has, and the more severe the Elixir Toxin will be."
"Yes, I have seen this on the alchemy book," Lin Jing nodded.
Elder Yu continued, "Long-term use of Elixir Medicine leads to the accumulation of Elixir Toxin in the body, which decreases the effectiveness of Elixirs and eventually renders them ineffective."
"Even worse, Elixir Toxin can even affect cultivation, making breakthroughs difficult."
"To clear the Elixir Toxin from the body, one would have to take a Clear Accumulation Elixir to remove some of the toxicity,"
"But the Clear Accumulation Elixir is also an Elixir, with limited effectiveness, and it's virtually useless for cultivators in the Nascent Soul Stage or those even more powerful in the Divinity Transformation Stage."
"However..."
"Pure Elixirs are different."
"Because, the reason Pure Elixirs are called 'pure' is that they have no Elixir Toxins at all, can be taken freely, and their effectiveness doesn't diminish with use."
"Pure Elixirs are actually that powerful!" Lin Jing was shocked.
To Lin Jing's shock, Elder Yu remained quite indifferent, with not much of a reaction.
Because when he was young and first heard of Pure Elixirs, he had a similar reaction.
"You must know that the chance of a Pure Elixir appearing is very low, and there's a prerequisite condition, which is that a furnace must simultaneously produce two or more Supreme Elixirs."
"During the refining process, these two Supreme Elixirs will expel their own impurities and fuse together to form a Pure Elixir."
"For a furnace to produce two Supreme Elixirs, how could an ordinary Alchemist manage that?"
"And that precisely serves as a testament to an Alchemist's strength."
"Any Alchemist capable of refining a Pure Elixir will be revered as an exalted guest in any faction they join, and naturally, their treatment will not be lacking."
Lin Jing thought to himself, "A furnace of Elixir Medicine generally yields 3-6 Elixirs; indeed, it is not something an ordinary Alchemist could do to refine two Supreme Elixirs in the same furnace."
"Furthermore, Pure Elixirs differ from ordinary Elixir Medicine; the moment they come out of the furnace, they need to be stored in a Pure Jade Box, and only taken out when it's time to consume them."
"Otherwise, if they come into contact with the outside world for too long, Pure Elixirs will be eroded by the ambient Qi and develop Elixir Toxin, degrading into Supreme Elixirs."
```
"Now you know."
"So this is what a Pure Elixir is." After marveling, Lin Jing continued to ask:
"Elder Yu, you said the chance of a Pure Elixir appearing is very low, but just how low is it?"
"Let me put it this way," said Elder Yu, "once, a very famous Pill Master tried to refine a Pure Elixir. He refined a hundred elixir furnaces in a row."
"All of them were his specialty elixirs, and each furnace produced at least two Supreme Elixirs."
"But, in the end, only one Pure Elixir appeared."
"Ah...?"
That low.
Then he remembered the attribute on the Alchemy Room panel, the one that increases the chance of a Pure Elixir appearing by 10%.
That rate would absolutely outclass that Pill Master.
Elder Yu continued, "Of course, Pure Elixirs depend entirely on luck, and there's no pattern to them, so there's no need to deliberately pursue them."
"Some people get one in just over a dozen furnaces, while others might not see a single Pure Elixir even after several hundred furnaces."
"So, you can't force the appearance of a Pure Elixir."
After listening, Lin Jing continued to inquire, "Elder Yu, Yuebaolou should have Pure Elixirs for sale, right?"
"Of course." Elder Yu was quite confident.
"And I have refined a Pure Elixir myself."
"Elder Yu, you..."
Lin Jing looked at the Elder Yu before him and bowed respectfully.
"Forgive my short-sightedness, it turns out Elder Yu is actually an Alchemy Master."
Elder Yu waved his hand dismissively: "Master is too strong a word, I just refined a lot, and the quality of my elixirs has some assurance. Over time, it's normal to produce Pure Elixirs."
"Young man, you must know, even among Pure Elixirs, the value can differ immensely."
"For example, the elixirs I frequently refine are those that increase cultivation or heal injuries and restore spiritual power. These, even if Pure, don't command an outrageous price."
"Basically, they're just twenty or thirty times the price of a regular Supreme Elixir."
"But..."
At this point, Elder Yu paused, then spoke with a hint of longing:
"If one were to refine elixirs for breakthroughs in cultivation stages or extending lifespan, then the value would be completely different."
"Especially the Pure Elixirs for extending lifespan. They're not limited by other elixirs of the same kind, and no matter how many you consume, their effects don't diminish."
"Such Pure Elixirs, whenever they appear, incite countless people to compete fiercely, causing a storm of bloodshed."
Lin Jing's eyes immediately lit up, and his heart began to race.
"With my own Alchemy Room, if I refine lifespan extension elixirs myself and the appearance rate of Pure Elixirs is increased, doesn't that mean I could potentially extend my life indefinitely through consuming Pure Elixirs, achieving immortality?"
"And as the System Space grows, the Spiritual Energy will surely be denser. By then, transplanting Spirit Plants for Lifespan Extension Pills would be even better, right?"
With this thought, Lin Jing became even more excited.
After that, Lin Jing discussed some more questions with Elder Yu before leaving Yuebaolou.
He had gained much from this visit.
......
Over the next month, Lin Jing didn't refine pills as frantically as on the first day, instead reducing the number of times he practiced alchemy daily.
Yet, even when following Elder Yu's instructions to the letter, his success rate was still not high.
In his view, this must be due to his own lack of a pill recipe book.
But since recipe books were too expensive and he couldn't afford them, he was left to fumble his way through and try to improve his success rate.
One day, Lin Jing went to Yuebaolou again, buying more materials for refining Fasting Pills.
On his way back, Lin Jing pondered over future arrangements.
Suddenly, a commotion up ahead disrupted his thoughts.
"Whose little girl is this?"
"Why is she all alone here? How pitiful."
