Chapter 8 Lingyang Town's First Alchemist
There are three kinds of medicinal materials used to refine Huangxin Dan.
First, the yellow heart petals were put into the alchemy furnace.
This alchemy furnace is just an ordinary furnace and cauldron, and the price is only thousands of silver taels.
There are basically no alchemy furnaces sold in Lingyang Town, because there has never been an alchemist in Lingyang Town.
Of course, Ye Xingchen wants to become the first alchemist in this town.
Ye Xingchen threw the elixir fire condensed in his hand into the alchemy furnace and began to control the elixir fire.
Controlling the alchemy fire requires powerful soul power and the power of true qi, both of which are indispensable.
Ye Xingchen's soul power is not very powerful, after all, his body merges with two souls.
As for the power of true qi, although his cultivation level has just reached the first level of the Huangji realm and has the power of a bull, the power of true qi required to refine first-grade elixirs is completely enough.
What's more, Ye Xingchen's elixir skills are even more unmatched.
Ye Xingchen is not difficult to refine a mere Yellow Heart Pill.
After about one stick of incense, Ye Xingchen put the second medicinal material into the alchemy furnace and then began to refine it again.
The second step is to add pure heart powder, which is mainly to refine and remove impurities from yellow heart petals.
This step requires calcination of fire.
"boom!"
In less than a moment, a sound of explosion occurred in the alchemy furnace. This was not the explosion of the alchemy furnace, but the effect produced when removing impurities.
Time passed little by little, and three hours had passed.
Ye Xingchen has already made the final step in refining the Huangxin Pill, which is to fusion into the pill!
The seven trivial steps were completed without any flaws.
This is true for alchemy. As long as one mistake is made, all previous efforts will be wasted.
However, when Ye Xingchen refined the Huangxin Pill, he never made any mistakes.
This is not the first time he has refined Huangxin Pill, and his alchemy skills have already reached the point of being superb.
"boom!"
In an instant, a crisp explosion sounded again from the alchemy furnace.
"Success!"
This seems very simple, but it is absolutely something that extraordinary people can do.
Ye Xingchen took out this pill that was only the size of a thumb from the alchemy furnace, which turned mud-yellow and emitted a faint fragrance.
"It's okay, the grade reaches the first grade level."
Ye Xingchen was quite satisfied with refining this yellow heart pill.
...
Three days later.
Ye Xingchen used up all the elixirs he purchased.
In these three days, he also refined thirteen yellow heart pills.
Moreover, the grades are all in the first grade, and among the first grade pills, they are top-notch pills.
The price of a single-grade yellow heart pill ranges from 10,000 to 30,000.
The yellow heart pill refined by Ye Xingchen is of high quality grade, and the price will definitely not be less than 25,000 silver taels.
Pills are very popular goods. Half of the pills are booked from pill stores, so it is impossible to buy them at any time.
He used 10,000 silver taels to buy medicinal materials. If he sold all these thirteen first-grade high-end yellow heart pills, it would have been more than twenty times.
"Hehe... go to the town to sell elixirs." Ye Xingchen licked his lips, took the thirteen yellow heart pills, and walked towards the town.
How can he make money if he doesn’t sell elixirs? How can he buy high-end and expensive medicinal materials without silver?
What Ye Xingchen needs is to refine Huangji Pill, this elixir that enhances the power of true qi, rather than Huangxin Pill that protects the heart meridians from being injured during practice.
When he was practicing, it was enough to leave two yellow heart pills. By the way, he gave Ye Ziyang a yellow heart pill, just treating him as a reward.
On that day, Ye Ziyang worked hard to carry this alchemy furnace weighing hundreds of pounds, and Ye Xingchen of course had to reward him appropriately.
...
After leaving the town, Ye Xingchen walked towards the only pharmacy on the street.
This pharmacy was opened by the mayor of Lingyang Town.
There is no remaining elixir in the pharmacy.
The mayor would send someone to purchase pills from Tianyang City every time.
Because the pills are too expensive, they are purchased through customer reservations, pay a deposit first, and then go to purchase the goods.
As soon as Ye Xingchen walked into this pharmacy, a shopkeeper came out to greet Ye Xingchen.
"It's Young Master Ye, are you here to book the pills?" Of course, this shopkeeper knew Ye Xingchen. In the town, everyone knew the young masters of the five major families.
"No, I'm here to sell elixirs." As soon as Ye Xingchen said this, he actually alarmed the mayor in the elixir shop.
The mayor is a man in his forties. He is actually the governor of Lingwu Kingdom, named Li Fang.
It is just a local official who maintains the order of local towns. He usually organizes any activities in Lingyang Town, such as any competitions, and he does it.
Li Fang came over and asked Ye Xingchen: "Do you have any pills to sell?"
He knew that the pill was extremely popular in Lingyang Town, and before he could be taken out, he was booked early.
"Well, I have ten yellow heart pills, all of which have reached the first grade level, and they are the best yellow heart pills."
After saying that, Ye Xingchen took off a small box from his body and slowly opened it.
When Li Fang saw the ten yellow heart pills in this small wooden box, his face looked surprised.
Can he not be surprised with so many Huang Xindans?
"Can I take a closer look?" Li Fang said with his hand.
Ye Xingchen handed over, and he was not worried that Li Fang would take over the ten yellow heart pills he had. As the head of a town, he would not even want someone to pay for the sake of just 200,000 silver taels.
"It's indeed Huangxin Dan, and they are all first-class Huangxin Dan." Li Fang swallowed a sip and sighed.
"Can I take the liberty to ask, where does this pill come from?" Li Fang asked.
He dared not buy elixirs of unknown origin. If Ye Xingchen had cheated him, he would have to bear the danger and losses.
Ye Xingchen smiled and said, "This is the pill I refined myself."
In fact, Ye Xingchen wanted to hide his identity as an alchemist, but now he urgently needs a large amount of gold coins. If Li Fang believes, he can only say that.
Upon hearing this, Li Fang immediately laughed and said, "Boy Ye, you are too dishonest."
Li Fang would never believe that these ten yellow heart pills were refined by him.
Not only Li Fang, but also the warriors in the town, would probably not believe that these ten yellow heart pills were refined by Ye Xingchen.
"Oh? Isn't this Young Master Ye? What a coincidence." At this time, a scream came out from behind Ye Xingchen.
Following the sound, he saw a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a blue robe.
"Zhang Shaojie!"
This person is the second young master of the Zhang family from the five major families in Lingyang Town. Zhang Shaojie and Lu Kang were originally in the same nest of snakes and rats.
Naturally, Ye Xingchen and him are in a hostile relationship.
Ye Xingchen ignored him at all, but said to Li Fang: "Did I prove that these ten yellow heart pills were refined by me? Will you buy them for 30,000 silver taels?"
Li Fang smiled and nodded immediately and agreed: "As long as you prove that these ten pills were refined by you, I will buy them for 50,000 silver taels per pill."
