Pills

The alchemy in this world was different, but the principles are still quite similar, the materials needed different chemical treatments before going through the final process.

The end result of alchemy is to create pills, with the most diverse uses, whether for attack, cultivation or healing. All the ingredients would be burned in a special furnace to a powder and then melted into one or more pills. Of course, potions and other chemical solutions still existed, but they were considered to be a far lower level compared to a pill.

'I have already managed to create some healing pills, I think that now that I have reached the expert level of alchemy I will be able to produce some cultivation pills. They work in the same way as increased experience when hunting monsters, but using too many pills constantly can make my foundation unstable. ' Nicola thought.

"This is the solution then, I will use this pills to reach level 18 and after that I will hunt to level up and stabilize the foundation of my power" Nicola decided promptly.

He didn't have to worry about money, his reserves were still high, and the blacksmithing job brought in a steady stream of money.

Mainly because he was a student at the Six Rings Academy, the weapons certified by the school were worth more than the normal market price. He used part of the money to buy approximately a thousand sets of herbs to practice the cultivation pills, alchemy is an expensive profession that needs many attempts to succeed.

He had already acquired recipes for two cultivation pills, the Energy Collection Pill and the Hundred Beasts Pill. The first used the energy-gathering grass, which glowed with a rainbow color, as the main ingredient, and the second recipe needed the core of a hundred level 3 beasts and other secondary ingredients to stabilize the energy created.

Nicola started to practice making the hundred beasts pill, after preparing the ingredients, he sat in front of the special cauldron and put the ingredients inside, the cauldron is quite simple and had only two holes, one for each hand, which was where Nicola generated the elemental fire and controlled it to burn the ingredients, each needed a different temperature to burn properly, but this was easy with Nicola's level of affinity, none of the secondary herbs showed resistance.

The cores were another story, even dead, the cores of the beasts still kept bestial and uncontrolled energy that made the cauldron tremble as it burned, attacking the flames and the other ingredients. A burned stink came out of the cauldron when Nicola was unable to properly control his flame and burned the ingredients, causing the entire set to be lost. It was common for this to happen, after all it was his first time mixing that type of pill.
