Intermediate Alchemy

Xiao Han bought a few sets of medicinal herbs and returned to the alchemy room. It was another boring pill refinement, but seeing his skill proficiency increase, he finally found some fun. All this time, Xiao Han had tried the various precautions in the Shennong's Hundred Herbs Scripture over and over again, and finally broke through an unprecedented realm. The originally ten-second pill refinement process was reduced to five seconds by him, and the success rate had also greatly increased. The number of Nine Revolutions Wonder Hand Pills was also quite considerable.

If it were anyone else, they would have long since gotten tired of such a dull and boring activity after spending an entire day cooped up in the alchemy room. However, Xiao Han assiduously repeated the process of refining pills, immersing himself in this small happiness.

Why were there so many people refining pills, but not a single intermediate alchemist was born? Firstly, their luck was much lower than Xiao Han's. More importantly, they had never learned the Shennong's Hundred Herbs Scripture, so they had no way of reaching Xiao Han's high success rate. Not to mention refining high-grade medicinal pills. It was extremely rare for ordinary people to refine high-grade Six Harmonies Pills. Secondly, because their success rate in refining pills was low, the grade of the medicinal pills they refined was also low, and the skill proficiency they obtained was low. That meant that in order to obtain the same number of skill proficiency as Xiao Han, they would spend much more time refining pills than Xiao Han. If a person did the same thing for a long time, it was very easy for them to fall into a daze. If they were not focused, it would lead to an increase in the failure rate. This vicious cycle made their efficiency in refining pills not high. As a result, there had never been an intermediate alchemist until now.

Xiao Han was different from ordinary people. In order to kill a person, he had once hidden in a pile of grass that was filled with mosquitoes and ants for five days and five nights. In the end, he killed his opponent with one strike. In order to train his body, he boiled his body in boiling water for three days and three nights. These were things that Xiao Han had done before. Refining pills for a few days and maintaining a high concentration was simply child's play for him.

With the synthesis of the last Nine Revolutions Wonder Hand Pill, Xiao Han's skill proficiency reached 1,000/1,000. He finally broke through to the junior alchemist level and reached the intermediate level. With excitement, he learned the formula for the Purple Sun Snow Melting Pill, the Demon Pellet, and the Hundred Fruits Sweet Dew Pill. Xiao Han was in a good mood and couldn't wait to try it. The Demon Pellet was successfully synthesized, and the Purple Sun Snow Melting Pill was successfully synthesized. With the help of godly support, Xiao Han synthesized the medicinal pill again and again, completely reaching a state of selflessness.

Because the Demon Pellet and the Purple Sun Snow Melting Pill were not ordinary pills but special formulas, they could not be refined into higher-grade items. However, with Xiao Han's perfect control of the medicinal properties, he actually did not fail even after refining dozens of them.

When it was time for dinner, Xiao Han stopped and found that his skill proficiency had reached the intermediate level of 86/1000. He carefully checked his gains. There were more than 500 Six Harmonies Pills, 107 Nine Revolutions Wonder Hand Pills, 21 Purple Sun Snow Melting Pills, and 22 Demon Pellets. There were still some herbs left. He could continue to refine some more, but he would think about it at night.

400 Six Harmonies Pills, 90 Nine Revolutions Wonder Hand Pills, 15 Purple Sun Snow Melting Pills, and 15 Demon Pellets were enough to offset the 15,000 gold coins owed to Long Fei. He called Long Fei and found that he was on a mission. When he was doing the mission, he had not come out for a few days. He did not know when Long Fei would return. Xiao Han directly gave the pills to Long Fei's assistant, Long Tao, and asked him to pass them to Long Fei. If Long Tao's expression when he looked at Xiao Han back then could be described as a surprise, he was completely shocked now. When Long Tao saw those pills, two words immediately appeared in his mind: Intermediate Alchemist. The person in front of him must have reached the realm of Intermediate Alchemist.

After Xiao Han handed the things to Long Tao, his mood became much more relaxed. Xiao Han had never liked to owe others things, including favors. There were still 100 Six Harmonies Pills, 17 Nine Revolutions Wonder Hand Pills, 6 Purple Sun Snow Melting Pills, and 7 Demon Pellets left. Xiao Han ate a Purple Sun Snow Melting Pill with a nervous heart. After all, he did not have any spirit or strength now. He only had energy. What if he did not have any energy after eating it?

However, his uneasiness was immediately eliminated. He realized that his energy had increased by 3 points. After taking another Demon Pellet, his energy had also increased by 2 points. Xiao Han was overjoyed. He didn't expect that both his strength and spirit would increase his energy. Xiao Han thanked his ancestor again. He ate two Purple Sun Snow Melting Pills and two Demon Pellets, increasing his energy by 15 points. It was equivalent to advancing by seven levels.

Xiao Han looked at the rankings. He had fallen below 500, and the highest Proud God was already Level 19. Xiao Han compared himself to Proud God. Who was stronger? In terms of attributes, Xiao Han was not inferior to a Level 19 person, but who knew if Proud God had eaten any Great Strength Vajra Pills? If he had not, Xiao Han felt that he could challenge the Proud God.

Xiao Han was in a good mood and walked briskly towards his small shop. When he entered the shop, it was empty. Occasionally, a few people would pass by and immediately leave. They shook their heads and sighed. They didn't know which rich person had money and nowhere to spend it and bought a shop here to not sell things.

Xiao Han walked in and greeted Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao also called him Boss like a human. Xiao Han placed the medicinal pills he had refined on the container. The Six Harmonies Pill was only slightly cheaper than the system shops of the same kind. One Nine Revolutions Wonder Hand Pill was 150 gold coins, one Demon Pellet was 200 gold coins, and one Purple Sun Snow Melting Pill was 100 gold coins. The price was very expensive. In any case, Xiao Han did not intend to sell them in bulk. He could earn back his capital by selling a few. It seemed that only the price of the Purple Sun Snow Melting Pill was relatively fair. After all, its ingredients were relatively cheap. The price was still a little expensive, but there was only one such medicinal pill. There were no others. It could not be bought anywhere else. This was Xiao Han's confidence.

Then, he took out the gems at the bottom of his storage. He simply marked each one at two million gold coins. In any case, he did not intend to sell them. It did not matter how expensive they were.

After putting the items away, Xiao Han went out without advertising. Xiao Han could imagine the scene later on. When someone unintentionally walked into the shop, he would be surprised to find that someone had actually dropped a few dark gold gems, and the attributes of these gems were shockingly abnormal. Then, he would scold the shop owner. He was simply blinded by money. A lousy gem was actually sold for two million gold coins. When he walked out of the shop and met a friend, he would show off to his friend that he had seen a super top-grade gem worth two million gold coins. The attributes were super abnormal, and his friend would definitely not believe it, so he brought his friend to admire it. Soon, a butterfly effect appeared. In the end, everyone came to admire those few gems with terrifying attributes and also saw those abnormal pills. A super advertisement was formed invisibly. Of course, the final beneficiary was Xiao Han.
