Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 240 - Refining Five Spirit Herbs at the Same Time!



Chapter 240: Refining Five Spirit Herbs at the Same Time!

“Big Brother Gu, are you really going to bet with him?”

Fang Qinyu frowned as she looked at Gu Xi. Her words could not help but contain some worry.

Although refining the essence of spirit herbs sounded very simple, it was a real technical job. This could not help but test the alchemist’s meticulous control over his own mental energy. Moreover, he also needed to have a deep understanding of the various spirit medicines themselves.

The slightest carelessness would destroy the spirit medicine in an instant.

This point was similar to refining pills.

Gu Xi smiled, indicating that she did not need to worry.

“It is likely that Brother Gu should know very little about refining medicine. In that case, I, Cao Hua, am not willing to take advantage of you.”

Cao Hua grinned and waved his hand. Immediately, a medicinal cauldron appeared in front of Gu Xi. “This medicinal cauldron has accompanied me for many years and has always been regarded as a treasure by me. Today, I will temporarily lend it to you, Brother Gu.”

The entire medicinal cauldron was bronze in color. On its surface, there were many demon beasts of various shapes and sizes. At a glance, they even looked lifelike, as if they had come to life. Not only that, from time to time, faint spiritual energy would overflow from the cauldron.

This was indeed a high-grade cauldron.

However, Gu Xi shook his head. “Thank you for your kind intentions, brother Cao. Although I don’t know much about alchemy, I do have a cauldron here.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xi also waved his hand, and a cauldron covered in dark green rust fell to the ground, stirring up dust.

It was the Mother Cauldron that he had obtained from Baizhi at the auction!

......

“This cauldron… doesn’t seem to be a medicinal cauldron, right?”

“Besides, this cauldron doesn’t look ordinary. There’s nothing special about it. In fact, it’s no different from the most ordinary bronze cauldron…”

“Does this person know how to refine medicine? Is this a joke?”

Following the appearance of the mother cauldron, many disciples of the Medicine King Valley had different opinions.

Some felt that this cauldron was not ordinary, but there were also some who felt that it was trash.

A cauldron with an extraordinary grade indeed had a great boost to refining medicine. However, in the end, the cauldron was still an external factor. The most important thing was still to see the alchemist’s own skill level.

Gu Xi turned a deaf ear to everyone’s mutterings.

In any case, to him, this cauldron was merely a smokescreen.

His gaze slowly swept across the many spirit medicines at the side. Very quickly, he chose the spirit medicine that he wanted to refine.

A dark purple flower with eight horns.

“This fellow actually chose the Octagonal Mystical Spirit Grass!”

“I’m dying of laughter. Looks like he really doesn’t know much about refining medicine!”

Seeing that Gu Xi had chosen his spirit medicine, many disciples could not help but laugh out loud.

Octagonal Mystical Spirit Grass. This was a spirit medicine of neither high nor low grade.

Even though that was the case, among all the spirit medicines present, it was the most special one — it was the most difficult to refine. There was no one like it!

Octagonal Mystical Spirit Grass. Each stalk had eight horns, but each horn contained different elemental energy. If one wanted to successfully refine it, other than the alchemist having to control his own mental strength to a meticulous degree, during the refining process, one had to maintain the balance of the eight elements at all times. The slightest carelessness would cause the elements to become chaotic, which would lead to the spirit medicine turning into powder, and even cause irreversible damage to the medicinal cauldron.

This was also the reason why it was said to be the most difficult spirit medicine to refine.

“Octagonal Mystical Spirit Grass, I’d like to see how you refine it.”

Looking at the dark purple flower in Gu Xi’s hand, Cao Hua could not help but laugh out loud.

Even he, who had refined medicine for more than ten years, and even the current Valley Master of the Medicine King Valley, had not succeeded in refining it all these years!

No matter what, he did not think that Gu Xi would succeed in refining it.

This bet was just a joke in his eyes.

Not far away, Fang Qinyu’s expression was not too good. Although Gu Xi had always been very mysterious in her heart, from the performance of the latter earlier, it seemed that Gu Xi really did not know anything about refining medicine.

“What if we lose?” Fang Qinyu was a little anxious as she looked at Little Nine at the side.

“Don’t worry.” A faint smile appeared on Little Nine’s extremely beautiful face.

This casual smile caused many of the disciples present to swallow their saliva.

Even though she could be said to be a blank in the field of refining medicine, it did not affect her 100 percent trust in Gu Xi.

However, what happened next stunned everyone present.

Gu Xi, who had chosen the Octagonal Mystical Spirit Grass, did not stop his actions. Instead, he waved his hand and a few more spiritual herbs of different shapes appeared in front of him.

“Nine Nether Dragon Soul Herb, Blazing Fire Phoenix Sunflower, Chaos Winter Ganoderma, Aqua Holy Fruit… these are all very difficult spirit herbs to refine!”

“What’s going on? Could it be that this fellow wants to refine so many at the same time?”

“Nonsense! Isn’t this a pure waste of spirit herbs?”

On the path of refining medicine, being able to refine the essence of one spirit herb was already extremely difficult. Wanting to refine many kinds of spirit herbs at the same time had a very high requirement on the alchemist’s mental strength. Moreover, refining so many spirit herbs at the same time… It was practically impossible.

One must know that even the current Valley Master of Medicine King Valley could only extract three kinds of spirit medicine at the same time.

Gu Xi actually wanted to extract five kinds of spirit medicine at the same time!

This was simply a fantasy!

On the other hand, the current Gu Xi’s expression did not change.

One could only see him slowly release his mental strength to envelop the entire cauldron. After that, he ignited a blazing flame in the cauldron.

Then, he grabbed the spirit herbs in front of him and sized them up. Then, he threw all of them into the blazing flame.

“F*ck, I’ve practiced in the sect for so many years, but I’ve never seen such a crude refining method. Are you sure this is refining spirit herbs?”

“What a joke. Is this guy preparing to cook dishes here?”

“Let me put it this way. If I can successfully extract the essence, I’ll run around the sect naked tonight!”

Voices sounded one after another in the crowd.

Apparently, almost no one believed that Gu Xi could successfully extract the essence.

In their opinion, there was no need to continue this bet.

They had never seen such a method of extraction before.

[Ding! Spiritual herbs: Octagonal Mystical Spirit Grass, Nine Nether Dragon Soul Herb, Blazing Fire Phoenix Sunflower, Chaos Winter Ganoderma, Aqua Holy Fruit detected. ]

[Total impurities: 39,644]

[Would the Host like to proceed with the extraction?]

In his mind, the System’s voice sounded slowly.

“Yes,” Gu Xi’s lips curled up slightly as he said softly.
