Time flies. On this day, it has been a month since Lu Chen joined the alchemy pavilion and became an alchemy master. In this month, Lu Chen had almost refined three hundred furnaces of elixir.

This is simply unimaginable for the average alchemist. The average second-grade alchemy master can refine ten pots of pill in a month, and it is not bad. For three hundred pots of pill, they need almost two and a half years to refine. But Lu Chen only took one month.

The number of pills that Lu Chen handed in also shocked the entire alchemy pavilion.

The dozens of alchemists in the alchemy pavilion were unbelievable. Especially Li Guangyuan, who dealt directly with Lu Chen every day, every time he saw Lu Chen, he seemed to see a ghost. He really didn't know how to describe Lu Chen's abnormality.

Li Guangyuan mentioned Lu Chen more than once. Every time he mentioned Lu Chen, he would say one thing, that is, Lu Chen is the most abnormal alchemist he has ever seen in his life.

On this day a month later, Lu Chen took a long breath. Holding six pills in his hand, the corners of his mouth split open, revealing an indescribable smile.

The joy in his heart made Lu Chen almost unable to resist a long whistle.

why?

Because, among these six pills, two of them actually achieved perfect quality. Yes, it is a pill of perfect quality.

The reason why Lu Chen joined the Pill Refining Pavilion at the beginning was to refine a pill of perfect quality.

"Ancestor!" Lu Chen put away the pill after watching the incense sticks for a long time and called Lu Jie.

Lu Jie's voice also came into Lu Chen's mind.

"Ancestor, I have refined a second-grade pill of perfect quality." Lu Chen turned his thoughts.

Because in the alchemy pavilion's pill room, for the sake of insurance, Lu Jie did not show up. However, this does not hinder the communication between the two.

When choosing the martial arts in the Lu Family Martial Arts Pavilion, the ancestor Lu Jie used his mind to guide Lu Chen to choose the Da Ri Tathagata.

"Yeah." Lu Jie's voice came.

"Can I try to refine Linglong Pill now?" Lu Chen asked again.

"You only have a seven-color exquisite flower. If the refining fails, you won't have the opportunity to try again." After a while, Lu Jie's voice came.

The ancestor Lu Jie's consideration was naturally right. Other materials for refining Linglong Pill can be purchased again, but the seven-color Linglong Flower is very difficult to buy. Seven-color exquisite flowers, which have to grow for at least 7,000 years, are very rare.

The low-age Linglong flower has a much worse effect.

Therefore, Lu Chen must be cautious.

"In this way, you first try with Cui Huadan. Cui Huadan is also a third-grade pill, and the difficulty of refining is similar to that of Linglong Pill. If you can guarantee the success rate of refining Cui Huadan, then it will not be too late to refine Linglong Pill." Lu Jie Said.

Hearing Lu Jie's suggestion, Lu Chen also felt reasonable.

Next, Lu Jie told Lu Chen all the spiritual grass materials needed to refine Cui Huadan. Refining Cui Huadan requires a total of 28 kinds of spirit grass materials, of which about half are third-rank spirit grasses, and the remaining half are first-rank and second-rank spirit grasses.

Lu Chen also had part of the first-grade and second-grade spirit grasses, but he didn't have most of them.

After Lu Jie told Lu Chen all the spirit grass needed for refining Cui Huadan, he also told Lu Chen all the materials needed for refining Linglong Pill, except for the seven-color Linglong Flower, so that Lu Chen could find them all at once.

Therefore, he needs to find all these spiritual grass materials first and be prepared.

After a cup of tea, Lu Chen left the alchemy pavilion and went to the treasure house of Si Ye Academy. Lu Chen now has 120,000 four-leaf coins, which are completely enough to exchange for the spiritual grass materials for refining Cui Huadan and Linglong Pill.

A pot of Cui Huadan needed about 10,000 four-leaf coins, and Lu Chen exchanged three pots of Cui Huadan materials at once.

And the materials needed for Linglong Pill, in addition to the Seven-Colored Linglong Flower, also needed about 10,000 four-leaf coins, and Lu Chen only exchanged one pot. He only has a seven-color exquisite flower, and it is useless to exchange multiple materials.

After spending a total of about 40,000 four-leaf coins, after exchanging the spirit grass materials, Lu Chen exchanged five drops of spirit liquid. A drop of spiritual liquid requires a full 10,000 four-leaf coins.

Lu Chen was also taken aback when he saw this price. However, after thinking of the effects of the spiritual liquid, Lu Chen felt that it was very worthwhile to exchange 10,000 four-leaf coins for a drop of spiritual liquid.

Five drops of spiritual liquid consumes 50,000 four-leaf coins, plus the 40,000 four-leaf coins exchanged for spiritual grass, that is 90,000 four-leaf coins.

Lu Chen had a total of 120,000 four-leaf coins. After he came out of the treasury of the Four-Leaf Academy, he only had about 30,000 four-leaf coins left.

This speed of spending money is also extremely amazing.

After leaving the treasure house of Si Ye Academy, Lu Chen returned to the alchemy pavilion for the first time and began preparing to refine Cui Huadan.

"Success, you must succeed!" Lu Chen took a light breath and spit it out again, calming his mind as much as possible.

There are still two months before the date of the decisive battle between him and Chen Zhulan, and time is running out.

After a while, Lu Chen's spirit became focused.

As Lu Jie's ancestor's voice came slowly in his mind, his hands continued to make movements. He has no experience in refining the third-grade pill. Refining this Cui Hua Dan requires the slow teaching of Lu Jie's ancestor.

The refining of the third grade pill is much more difficult than the second grade pill. Of course, this was also in Lu Chen's expectation, as if the second-grade pill was much more difficult to produce than the first-grade pill.

Third-rank alchemist is not that simple to become. In the alchemy pavilion, if you are a third-rank alchemy master and have contributed a lot to the alchemy pavilion, you have great hopes of being promoted directly to steward. The steward of the Pill Refining Pavilion does not require the task of refining alchemy. If the steward wants to refine the pill, he can refine it, and he does not need to refine it at all.

Just like Li Guangyuan, even if he didn't refine the pill for a year, the Pill Refining Pavilion was completely allowed. Of course, it is impossible for Li Guangyuan not to refine the pill for so long.

As time passed, Lu Chen methodically tried to refine Cui Huadan. He strictly followed the instructions of the ancestor Lu Jie in every step.

The refining process is also quite smooth.

"Very well done, no flaws." Lu Jie ancestor, a rare compliment to Lu Chen.

The corner of Lu Chen's mouth raised.

This was the first time he had refined the third-grade pill, and the whole process, although relatively slow, did not make any mistakes. If Cui Huadan was successfully refined, then Lu Chen would be promoted to a third-rank alchemist.

"Be careful, we have entered the last step, to stabilize the efficacy of the pill. This step is very important and must be very careful!" Lu Jie ancestor reminded.

"Huh!" Lu Jie replied.

He concentrated all his attention, restrained his mind, urged his internal strength, and felt the pill in the pill furnace. At this time, Cui Huadan has taken shape, and under the control of internal force, it has begun to gradually stabilize.

"Success!"

Lu Chen thought silently in his heart, he inevitably felt a little nervous.

"Ok?"

"Not good!" Lu Chen's face suddenly changed, and his body shook slightly.

After refining this furnace of Cui Huadan, at the last moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt a slight stagnation.

Lu Chen now has a lot of knowledge about alchemy. He knew that this kind of stagnation was not a good sign.

After another tea time, Lu Chen slowly reduced his internal strength, and his eyes were tightly fixed at the furnace.

At this time, he didn't know whether this furnace of Cui Huadan succeeded or failed. The feeling of stagnation just appeared was indeed a bad sign. However, having this feeling does not necessarily mean failure to refine the pill.

"Huh! Huh!" Lu Chen looked at the pill furnace, and after a few breaths, he didn't move.

"Open the pill furnace and take a look. Success will succeed, and failure will fail. This is Cui Huadan, not Linglong Pill. Even if it fails this time, it doesn't matter." The ancestor Lu Jie's voice came.

"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded, finally raised his palm and opened the pill furnace.

A few cyan pills came into Lu Chen's sight, and a strong fragrance of medicine also spread in the room in a flash.

"Flap! Flap! Flap!"

Just when Lu Chen wanted to take out Cui Huadan from the pill furnace, the five cyan halo Cui Huadan were all shattered.

The pill is made by extracting the medicinal power contained in the spirit grass. If the stabilization fails, the pill will completely disappear. The pill itself has no residue. The pill that is successfully refined has stable strength and will not collapse under normal circumstances.

In other words, the furnace of Cui Huadan made by Lu Chen failed.

Although he had been prepared, Lu Chen was inevitably disappointed. He knew that it was very difficult to be promoted to a third-rank alchemist, but now it was a bit uncomfortable to see the first third-rank alchemy Cui Huadan he refined and dissipated.

He is different from the average alchemist.

For a general second-rank alchemist, it is definitely very difficult to advance to the third-rank, and it may not be possible even for decades or hundreds of years. But Lu Chen, not only has now refined the second-rank pill of perfect quality, but also taught by Lu Jie's ancestor himself. Logically speaking, it must be relatively easy for him to promote Lu Chen to the third-rank.

"Although it failed, it's a little bit away from success. Don't be discouraged!" Old Ancestor Lu Jie did not scold Lu Chen this time, but said with comfort.

The ancestor Lu Jie had a bad temper. When Lu Chen was preparing medicines, and when he made the pill for the first time, the ancestor Lu Jie used to scold Lu Chen. But this time, Lu Jie's ancestor did not scold him.

"It's only a little bit away from success, but it still failed." Lu Chen sadly.

"What is a failure?"

"Which alchemist, who has been promoted from the second rank to the third rank, dare to say that he can succeed in one shot?" Lu Jie whispered, "Go on, refining the second furnace of Cui Huadan. This time, it should be almost done!"

Lu Chen didn't feel distressed about the wasted materials that failed to refine Cui Huadan. These materials were worth 10,000 four-leaf coins. Although they were quite a lot, they were nothing to Lu Chen. The left and right sides were just a drop of spiritual liquid. He was just a little scared in his heart. If he didn't follow the advice of Lu Jie's ancestors and tried to refine Cui Huadan first, but directly refine Linglong Pill, then he would be completely finished now.

"Well, go ahead!"

"I still don't believe it!" Lu Chen straightened his color!

Alchemy Pavilion on the first floor.

On the first floor, there is a grand hall with a crystal wall in the hall.

This wall, in the alchemy pavilion, has a name called Meritorious Wall. In fact, it is just a contribution list.

In the alchemy pavilion, almost all the member names will appear on the contribution list. There are only the pavilion master, two directors, and eight stewards. The names of these eleven people will not appear on the contribution list.

This contribution list will be updated every month.

Today is the time for the contribution list to be updated again, so from early in the morning today, pharmacists and alchemists gathered in the lobby on this floor, waiting for the contribution list to be replaced.

Contributions are cleared once a month, not cumulative.
