THE LIGHTNING EMPEROR

Pill making process

"What did the teacher say?" asked Luo Ying.

"Brook.. Everyone should know that if nothing is free in this world, whatever work it takes in return, what will you pay me for?" Gu Yao Han asked Fang An.

" That aaa…!" Fang An was confused then he looked at his ring and took out all the gold coins he had.

"Things like that I don't need," Gu Yao Han said.

Fang An became even more confused then he again flicked his hand then Ziyuan gave his father a hand also came out in front of Gu Yao Han.

"If only this is enough, I don't lack Ziyuan anyway! Do you not have anything more interesting for my wages, besides I will help you so that you can return to normal, you should pay me a fair price and equal to the price of your life," gu Yao Han said.

Fang An increasingly did not understand Gu Yao Han's thought path, dubbed the Pill King, he just did not expect that Gu Yao Han was very calculated, even though he knows that all forms of work do require payment.

"Senior, I have a few Spirit Core Anim Beasts, take them all and if it's not enough up to seniors, that's all I have right now" Fang An said.

"Alright, I will not ask you for any kind of reward, but I only want to ask for one request," Gu Yao Han said.

"What's that?" asked Fang An who was very curious, as well as Luo Ying.

"You must be willing to become my disciple," Gu Yao Han said.

"Well…!?"

Fang An and Luo Ying were both shocked, as well as Feng Huang who heard it from inside the necklace.

"So she wanted you to be her student? Why don't you just accept Fang An, after all the more knowledge you have the better," said Feng Huang.

"Are you sure you'll let me be the Pil King's disciple?" ask Fang An.

"All Cultivators desperately need an Alchemist to support the advancement of their level of practice, after all the medicinal science is very effective in fighting against poison, it will be very useful to you," Feng Huang replied.

"Alright if master allows me," Fang An said.

"Thank you Brother Fang, later we will become brothers and sisters" said Luo Ying who was very happy, although in fact he had felt disappointed by his teacher's request to Fang An, but the end result was actually feeling very happy and her teacher was not as bad as Luo Ying thought.

"Alright Brother Luo," Fang An said then he advanced before Gu Yao Han.

"Teacher, accept me to be your disciple!" fang An said while prostrating.

"Wake up and I'm sorry for making you so surprised by what I said, now that you're my student, because you're the last student, you should know that I actually had three before you, and the three of them are your elder brothers," Gu Yao Han said.

"Three? But there were only two, big brother Luo and Big Brother Shin, then where was the other one?" ask Fang An.

"The other one is Gu Fei Ming, he is my grandson, but now he is down the mountain" Gu Yao Han replied.

"Congratulations Fang' sister, now that you and I have become brothers and sisters, I will always help you in studying medicine" Luo Ying said.

Fang An nodded then Gu Yao Han patted Fang An on the shoulder then said, "Come with me, I'll make a medicine to remove the poison within your body as well as you can learn how to make Pills," gu Yao Han said.

"Luo Ying, you helped Shin He gather some ingredients to make the Soul Dew Pill!"

"Alright teacher," Luo Ying also replied then she nodded to Fang An and stepped out.

"Follow me!" gu Yao He said.

Fang An immediately followed his Master who had entered the door where Gu Yao He had exited earlier, and after that the two entered the room to make Pills for Fang An.

"Creating the Pill must use knowledge and insight, you must study various types of medicinal plants and diseases, one example is Poison, Medicine and Poison Science have in common, and the science of poison has something in common, it's just that the way and nature are different," said Gu Yao He who started concocting medicine by inserting some ingredients into a metal cauldron.

Fang An continued to pay attention to the way Gu Yao He made the Pill while listening to his guidance.

"In the world of medicine there is one of the most important things to remember: belief! You have to be sure of yourself in order to make medicine to help so many people."

While speaking, Gu Yao He started to light a flame out of his palm then threw the flame into the medicinal cauldron and Gu Yao He started making Pills.

"Wouldn't the medicinal ingredients be burned like that?" inner Fang An.

"You better pay attention to Fang An, he is the Pill King, he must know what he is doing" said Feng Huang.

Fang An could only curse inwardly, he only asked through the mind, but Feng Huang actually heard him.

"Creating Pills also requires a process, starting from the collection of materials and then the combustion process, since you also have the Fire Element Spirit Root, you must be able to control your fire well, you must be able to control your fire, because if you can throw fire into the cauldron, then you must be able to control the heat so that the medicinal ingredients are not charred, after the combustion process is complete, then just do the refining process of the Pill, then just do the pill, that is to separate the poison from the Pill, because every pill made will contain poison even if it is only a little."

While still in the process of making the Pill, Gu Yao He continued to give a slow explanation to Fang An so that Fang An could understand, especially in making the Pill.

Although still common, but Fang An must know how to make a good and right Pill, because if the wrong in the manufacture that is produced is only a failure.

Pills that are not purified perfectly will have toxic levels even if it is only a little, and if consumed only one, then the poison will begin to work, and the poison will begin to work, and if it continued to consume the Pill continuously, then the poison levels would accumulate so that it would disturb one to be able to raise his cultivation level.

For that, it is necessary to clean up the action by removing the poison that accumulates and clogs the Meridians, after it can be cleaned up then the person will be able to practice back to raise his cultivation level.

So the main key to successful Pill making is to purify the Pill to the perfect stage, the higher the Alchemist ability stage, the better the Pill will be.

Another one that was most profitable, namely the Perfect Price of Pills was extremely expensive, moreover those Pills were Special Pills for Cultivators, then the Cultivators would vie to be able to obtain the Pill with anything, no matter how expensive, they would still compete to be able to obtain it.

After Gu Yao He finished explaining it, he had also finished doing his Pill-burning stage.

The pill inside the cauldron turned out to be round by itself without the need to be shaped by hand, after that the Pill floated itself out from within the Cauldron then Gu Yao He widened both of his palms and then a burst of Fire came out burning the Pill, that is what is referred to as the purification of the Pill by separating the levels of Poison contained in the Pill.

The refining time of the Pill was longer than burning, and after that Gu Yao He managed to finish it.

"It's done! You immediately drink it after that the poison in your body will come out in the form of blood and you will have to spit out that blood," Gu Yao He said as he passed the black-colored Pill to Fang An.

Without thinking too much more, Fang An immediately swallowed the black Pill then immediately sat down cross-legged to absorb its entire efficacy.
