The Returning Sword Saint's

Chapter 13: Purifying the Pill

Being a cultivator was a difficult and dangerous job. Cultivators were at odds with each other in pursuit of what they wanted.

Trivial problems such as offending or disrespecting others, sometimes inadvertently make disputes even bigger. It would end up being an enmity that would then kill each other.

Every day in this world many people die horribly, whether they die with carelessness or are killed by their own neighbors.

Everyday fighting and death cannot be summed up because of so many. This was the world of cultivators, a world where killing someone was a natural thing.

In this world cultivators were forced to be able to keep their own lives. That's why they always provide a pill or herb that can heal their injured bodies in times of emergency.

They will provide such pills, herbs, herbs, and spirit herbs that are very helpful in medicine.

Therefore, the Alchemists who provided a pill and medicine, were highly respected in this world, even though they could not even cultivate at all.

And one of the most sought after pills wherever it is bearada is the treatment type pill.

Treatment-type pills are highly sought after and will always be in demand because everyone definitely needs them the most. They could not see the situation in the future, hence they prepared a medicinal pill to take care of their own lives in case something unexpected happened.

As a reincarnator from the Spirit World, Xiao Yun knew what to do and had already made plans for the future.

He knew how important a medicinal pill was to everyone. That was why Xiao Yun was definitely aiming for this target because he was sure that if it worked, the advantage would be huge.

Xiao Yun was eyeing the pill trading market to be exploited for money. In addition, his target was to be able to make money continuously without working at all. That was why he sold and invested the recipe of the Heavenly Karma Pill in the Living Hall.

Although it would leak the recipe, but it was not a problem as he still had many outstanding recipes over this. Xiao Yun wanted to make money faster and bigger one way, therefore he took this step.

His Heavenly Karma Pill that was sold was a magical low-grade medicinal pill. If a person drinks it when he is injured, then there is a 50–80% chance that one's wound will heal in the blink of an eye.

It was a miracle drug that could cure countless infections and diseases. The drug can mix with a large amount of infectious and toxic substances in the body of its host, and can remove them from there without causing damage to its subject.

Whether it was a heavy wound or a light wound, as long as the severity was not at the tip of the death horn, it could be healed.

There were three tiers of Heavenly Karma Pills belonging to Xiao Yun, namely low, medium, and high.

A low-level Heavenly Karma Pill was extremely effective for someone at the Qi Gathering realm. A mid-level Heavenly Karma Pill was suitable for someone at the Qi Foundation realm, and a high Heavenly Karma Pill was suitable for someone at the Martial Spirit realm.

In the Spirit World the Heavenly Karma Pill had even been enhanced and could be used for a Sovereign level expert. Make this pill as one of the best treatment type pills.

Xiao Yun had only sold three Heavenly Karma Pill recipes to the Living Hall for those three lowly realms. After all in Lantian City the cultivators still had a low realm and those three recipes were enough to master the pill selling market.

While taking a step back to his clan area, Xiao Yun wanted to immediately go to his house to more quickly purify the pills. The faster the pills were finished, the faster he could increase his cultivation.

"I'm lucky today... No one's browning."

Fortunately when he returned to his clan area, there was no one to bother him. Xiao Yun acted inconspicuously and went home safely.

At home, his mother has not returned... It's likely that her mother still works in the kitchen with the other servants.

Looking at the sun, Xiao Yun confirmed that it was still a bright morning, so he decided to immediately purify the pill.

"Muller, Mould grinder, cauldron, spirit plant... And the Wood of the Spirit."

Xiao Yun then began to take out his tools from the spatial pouch one by one. Once in a neat order, Xiao Yun then meditated briefly to calm his mind and heart.

Refining pills requires a clear and clear mind. One's mental state should be as calm as water for any probability of failure to be avoided.

After feeling enough, Xiao Yun immediately took the first step. Starting from he took one grass-type spirit plant and grinded it soft. This process was repeated over and over, until the spirit herbs he wanted to use had all been wiped out.

The soft results are then inserted in the mill box-shaped print. Xiao Yun slowly shook the mold and immediately at its bottom, twenty-five round pills formed slowly.

Xiao Yun did not stop, he was like the first step of continuing to grind until his dough ran out.

This process though looked trivial, but Xiao Yun spent an hour with sweat dripping down his temple.

A hundred pills were created with a perfectly green round shape. This pill still cannot be consumed because it has not been purified. The previous two steps were the traditional way for an Alchemist to create a pill... A long time before Alchemists existed until now, it is said that the ancestors used this way to create a pill.

But for some people, they still use this technique for preservation and learning. Sometimes, there was even someone Alchemist who dedicated his life taking this path.

Also, the opinion of many Alchemists states that this technique is great for young Alchemists to start learning to purify pills. Basically, this technique was the first step before an Alchemist took the next step.

After a short rest, Xiao Yun began to place the cauldron on top of the Spirit Wood. Unlike ordinary wood, Spirit Wood had many properties let alone on refining pills if it was burned.

The fire heat that the Wood Spirit produced, bore a resemblance to the Spirit Flame created by Alchemists. When an Alchemist wanted to refine a pill, one of the things he was obliged to have was Spirit Flame.

The Spirit Flame could be produced naturally from one's self if he had the Fire Spiritual Root... But what if I don't have it. Then the Alchemists will look for the Spirit of Fire that usually roams in nature.

Speaking of that, in a previous life... As the name implies, the Spirit World has many Spirits that can be found easily. People even just need to walk into the forest to find the Spirit that lives there. However, these spirits are sometimes not good in humans, they will catch on if they feel threatened. It's like a ghostly spirit that's running.

Right now, because Xiao Yun had yet to reach the Qi Foundation which he could yet awaken his Spiritual Root... Of course he had to take another alternative by buying Spirit Wood in lieu of Spirit Fire.

After all, the effect that the Spirit Wood produced... Not weaker with Spirit Fire. After burning the Spirit Wood and the cauldron had been hot, he used Telekinesis to insert one pill into the cauldron.

The ones meant by pill refining refer to this. By inserting the pill into the cauldron while being heated, it would purify the pill slowly and optimize the contained efficacy of the ingredients and heat.

The hardest step and takes a lot of mental energy. Many small probabilities at this stage will be the deciding factor of an outcome.

This was why Alchemists became a respected occupation in this world. Because it is not reckless that one can purify a pill. Alchemy is complex and complex... Like a formula, even though the arrangement is correct, not necessarily the result will be the same.

Right now that the flame was in its boiling point, Xiao Yun sensed that his purification had been in its final phase. He smiled cheerfully and began to focus his attention.

However unexpectedly, during the final step, Xiao Yun's control faltered and the cum– cauldron had exploded.

His face Xiao Yun gosong was covered in smoke with a sullen face.

"I failed."
