"Nonsense, Yue Ru doesn't have your monstrous talent and abilities," she retorted, rolling her eyes at Zhang Ergou.
"Besides, if you need pills, why can't you refine them yourself? You want me to do it for you?"
Ugh! Zhang Ergou felt a surge of anger.
Look at the masters he had taken, all so unreliable. He had praised this old man before, but now he realized he was still too young.
He rubbed his temples fiercely, not bothering to reply, his eyes fixed on Qiao Yun's movements.
Qiao Yun had already begun. Despite his nagging words, his actions were not at all hesitant. He summoned the blue beast fire within him.
Then, he tossed several herbs into the alchemy furnace.
My heavens, that's too bold, Zhang Ergou marveled. When he refined pills, he could only add herbs to the furnace one by one.
He was afraid of any anomalies arising from different temperatures and heat levels during the refinement of two herbs. Unlike Qiao Yun, who was so daring and relaxed.
Indeed, a master's skill breeds boldness, Zhang Ergou couldn't help but sigh.
A Rank Five Alchemist was different. Refining a Rank Two Spirit Replenishing Pill was as easy as playing.
Zhang Ergou sat quietly on the side, his eyes glued to every move and step of Qiao Yun, afraid of missing any crucial detail.
Suddenly, Zhang Ergou's eyes narrowed. A peculiar sensation washed over him. Qiao Yun's tedious steps for refining the Spirit Replenishing Pill seemed to slow down, appearing in his mind as if decomposed. Su Dan Novel Network.
Finally, those steps were even imprinted in his mind, lingering.
During this time, the time wheel of the Six Paths Samsara Eyes rotated slightly, and then Zhang Ergou found that Qiao Yun's series of actions began to slow down.
Those complex steps were directly decomposed and etched onto the time wheel, and then the Six Paths Samsara Eyes automatically deduced them, breaking down the complicated refining steps into something Zhang Ergou could understand.
"This is outrageous! The Six Paths Samsara Eyes can actually copy Master's refining steps!" Zhang Ergou was astonished by his own discovery.
Zhang Ergou was both surprised and delighted by this discovery. This would make refining pills much simpler for him in the future; he only needed to watch Qiao Yun refine once.
With the monstrous replication ability of the Six Paths Samsara Eyes, were there any refining techniques he couldn't master?
Zhang Ergou even saw piles of spirit stones rushing towards him—it was all money!
With this thought, Zhang Ergou slowly closed his eyes and entered a profound state of enlightenment. As expected.
In his mind, Qiao Yun's steps for refining the Spirit Replenishing Pill played back again and again, like a video, clear and simple.
Zhang Ergou immersed himself in this state, observing each step and gradually memorizing the steps for refining the Spirit Replenishing Pill.
Then, he even discovered that the Six Paths Samsara Eyes had not only deduced the method Qiao Yun used but also deduced a simpler refining method.
"I've hit the jackpot with this monstrous, heaven-defying ability." Opening his eyes, Zhang Ergou smacked his lips. A bold idea suddenly struck him.
"Could I copy other people's spells and skills?"
Condensing the pill!
Just then, a low shout interrupted his reverie, and the aroma of pills wafted through the inner hall of the Bao Dan Pavilion.
Following that, several perfectly round pills appeared in Qiao Yun's hand. Looking at the pills with satisfaction, Qiao Yun nodded to himself.
"Kid, how's the observation? Have you learned the refining method for the Spirit Replenishing Pill?" Qiao Yun glanced at Zhang Ergou beside him and stood up, patting his shoulder.
Although he said this, he didn't hold out much hope. The refining steps for the Spirit Replenishing Pill were far more complicated than those for the Qi Replenishing Pill.
Not long ago, Zhang Ergou had struggled to refine the Qi Replenishing Pill; wanting to refine the Spirit Replenishing Pill was simply wishful thinking.
However, having witnessed too many of this kid's astonishing feats, Qiao Yun couldn't help but ask.
"Master, I think I've learned it. How about I give it a try?" Zhang Ergou rubbed his hands, a wide smile on his face.
"Learned... learned it? Cough, cough!" Qiao Yun was genuinely choked this time. He had only asked casually, and this kid dared to take advantage of it.
However, he couldn't dampen the kid's enthusiasm, though he inwardly grumbled about Zhang Ergou's boastfulness.
What kind of bragging was this? Even the most talented alchemist wouldn't dare claim to have learned to refine the Spirit Replenishing Pill after just one viewing.
Looking at Zhang Ergou with a mixture of disbelief and curiosity, Qiao Yun cleared a space and pulled over a chair to sit. He wanted to see if this kid was truly bragging.
"Master, shall I begin then?" With a sly grin, Zhang Ergou moved directly to the alchemy furnace.
"Refine it. Let's see how much of a genius you are. I truly don't believe you could learn it after one viewing," Qiao Yun said grumpily, sitting in the chair and rolling his eyes.
"Heh heh, then your disciple shall begin!" Rubbing his hands, Zhang Ergou sat down cross-legged beside the alchemy furnace.
With a thought, he summoned his spiritual fire and then, according to the steps decomposed by the Six Paths Samsara Eyes, Zhang Ergou tossed the herbs into the alchemy furnace one by one.
During this process, he strictly controlled the heat and timing according to the steps decomposed by the Six Paths Samsara Eyes.
His concentration was heightened, and he dared not slacken in the slightest. Although he had fully learned the steps for refining the Spirit Replenishing Pill in his mind,
there was still a significant difference between practice and theory. Therefore, even though the steps were very clear in his mind, Zhang Ergou proceeded with extreme caution.
Refining the medicinal liquid and fusing the ingredients—each step was executed flawlessly, and the mastery was even more exquisite than Qiao Yun's previous refinement of this pill.
Hmm?
Beside him, Qiao Yun, sitting in his chair, was so engrossed that he didn't even realize he had pulled out a few of his beard hairs. In just a few days, this kid's alchemy skills had improved so much.
"Unbelievable! Is this kid a monster? With this talent, does he expect others to live?" Qiao Yun was astounded by how Zhang Ergou perfectly controlled every step of refining the Spirit Replenishing Pill.
"Master!" Lin Yueru, who had come out from the side hall, glanced at Zhang Ergou and bowed to Qiao Yun, who was sitting in his chair.
"Mm!" Qiao Yun nodded and handed a jade bottle to Lin Yueru, his eyes never leaving Zhang Ergou.
"Master, what is this?" Lin Yueru slightly furrowed her pretty brows.
"Oh, this is the Spirit Replenishing Pill that your master just refined for you. It will definitely be useful for the inner sect trial in a few days."
Still not turning around, Qiao Yun continued to stare intently at Zhang Ergou. Just as Zhang Ergou had been afraid of missing any of Qiao Yun's steps before, Qiao Yun was now afraid of missing any of Zhang Ergou's refining steps.
"Thank you, Master!" Lin Yueru smiled sweetly and bowed to Qiao Yun again. "Master, what pill is fellow disciple Ergou refining?"
"Spirit Replenishing Pill!"
"What? Spirit Replenishing Pill?" Lin Yueru exclaimed in surprise...
