Chapter 56: Successfully Refining Mid-grade Pills, A Genius Alchemist

Rumble, rumble~~

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui did not hesitate and immediately utilized the power of the Book Gu. Suddenly, a mysterious gray current of air submerged into the depths of his Soul, and his body shook violently.

In an instant, he perceived that his comprehension had seemingly increased dozens of times, as if he had evolved from an ordinary person into a supreme genius; knowledge that was incomparably difficult before now seemed extremely simple.

"So that's how it is."

Zhou Sui contemplated the mysteries of the Five Elements Alchemy Formula. At this moment, the previously incomparably complex techniques were being dissected with ease, as simple as one plus one.

The power of the five elemental forces—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—was manipulated at will in his hands.

Five Elements Alchemy Formula Beginner 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%...

For an ordinary Cultivator like Zhang Cheng, this was a technique that would take decades of effort to successfully cultivate, but now in Zhou Sui's hands, it could be mastered with ease and was even continuously improving.

This is the difference between a genius and a mediocre person.

Things that a genius can learn with just a glance, a mediocre person might not even be able to grasp the basics of after a dozen years of study.

Sometimes the gap between people is even greater than the gap between a person and a dog.

Under the blessing of the Book Gu's power, Zhou Sui became a peerless genius with astonishing comprehension.

…………

Another day passed.

After a day of contemplation, coupled with the assistance of the Book Gu, Zhou Sui's control over the Five Elements Alchemy Formula had already surpassed Zhang Cheng's, elevating this alchemy technique to the Proficient level.

And this was merely the beginning.

With continuous cultivation, he would sooner or later be able to elevate this technique to the Mastery, or even the Major Achievement realm.

Of course, this would also require a long period of time; it was not something that could be done overnight.

"Perhaps I can try Alchemy."

Zhou Sui sat cross-legged on the ground, his heart stirred; he wanted to start attempting Alchemy.

After all, he had already made the corresponding preparations for Alchemy, having obtained a Pill Cauldron and purchased portions of Spirit Medicine.

If even Zhang Cheng could become a Mid-grade Alchemist, then he could as well.

In fact, judging solely from theoretical knowledge, he was already a Mid-grade Alchemist; now he only lacked practice.

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate and immediately took out the High-grade Alchemy Cauldron from his person, placing the portions of Spirit Medicine into the Pill Cauldron.

Whoosh, whoosh~~~

At this moment, he cast techniques with both hands, operating the power of the Five Elements Alchemy Formula, and the power of the five elemental forces—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—immediately surged out, covering these Spirit Medicines.

The impurities in each stalk of Spirit Medicine were completely expelled, leaving behind only the pure essence of the vegetation.

Then, they transformed into clusters of pure Spirit Liquid.

"Interesting."

A glimmer of excitement appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes. His Soul power, comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, spread out and permeated these Spirit Liquids, perceiving the properties of these liquids.

Now he finally understood why Foundation Establishment Cultivators were so much stronger than Qi Refining Cultivators who were Alchemists; it was all because of Soul power.

A powerful Soul could easily perceive the remaining impurities in these Spirit Medicines.

At the same time, it could also control the proportions of the Spirit Liquid transformed from these Spirit Medicines.

Thereby causing the Spirit Liquids transformed from different Spirit Medicines to fuse together perfectly.

This was something a Qi Refining Cultivator could not do; only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could achieve it.

Rumble, rumble~~~

In an instant, under the control of the Five Elements Alchemy Formula, the various Spirit Liquids gathered together according to different proportions.

He did not know how much time had passed, but the Spirit Liquid solidified and fused together.

Cyan Pills the size of glass beads instantly appeared in the Pill Cauldron, diffusing a massive medicinal fragrance that was pungent and fragrant, even spreading throughout the entire courtyard.

"It's done, the Cao Huan Pill has been successfully refined."

Seeing that thirteen Cao Huan Pills had been refined at once, Zhou Sui felt very excited. These round, plump Pills contained a large amount of medicinal power, and were even purer than the Cao Huan Pills on the market.

"Husband, what's wrong? Why is there such a rich fragrance?"

At this time, the three women—Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyan, and Xia Jingyan—who were in the kitchen cooking, also smelled this pungent, fragrant scent for the first time and approached the quiet room with great curiosity.

"Haha, I have successfully refined the Pill."

Zhou Sui opened the door and laughed heartily, showing his alchemy results to the three women.

"What? Isn't this the Mid-grade Pill, the Cao Huan Pill? Could it be that you have become a Mid-grade Alchemist, Husband?"

Seeing the Pills inside the Pill Cauldron, Ji Bingyu was greatly shocked.

In fact, how to evaluate an Alchemist's rank is very simple: whatever rank of Pill one can refine, that is the rank of Alchemist one is; it is simple and clear.

Since Zhou Sui could refine a First Tier Mid Grade Pill, he was a Mid-grade Alchemist; this was beyond doubt.

"That's right, I just tried it, and I am already able to refine Mid-grade Pills."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

Although he had utilized the power of the Book Gu to devour the First-tier Alchemist Inheritance and his theory was already perfect, he had never practiced it in the end and was unsure of his true level.

But now it was different; he had used his own power, without needing to rely on the power of earth fire, and without the assistance of Spirit Fire, he could still refine Mid-grade Pills.

This meant he was already a genuine Mid-grade Alchemist.

Of course, this was all thanks to the assistance of the Five Elements Alchemy Formula.

If not for this technique helping him, his Alchemy would not have been so successful.

"Husband, you are truly too amazing. It was only your first time practicing Alchemy, yet you were actually able to refine Mid-grade Pills. Even the talent of those Alchemist Grandmasters is probably no better than this."

Mu Ziyan was also dumbfounded.

She was very clear about her husband's previous level of Alchemy; he had been completely ignorant of alchemy knowledge before and had only purchased the Alchemist Inheritance not long ago.

But now, after tinkering with it himself, and without a teacher to guide him, he had actually successfully refined Mid-grade Pills.

Not to mention seeing such a thing, I haven't even heard of it.

Without a doubt, such Alchemy talent is simply earth-shattering and beyond imagination.

"No, no, no, it's still far from enough; let's talk after I refine a Foundation Establishment Pill."

"I said before, even if a Foundation Establishment Pill cannot be bought at the auction, if there are enough Spirit Medicine materials, I can refine a Foundation Establishment Pill by relying on my own power."

Zhou Sui stood with his hands behind his back, full of confidence.

There was no help for it; the reason he had such comprehension and achievements was entirely due to the Book Gu giving him a cheat.

It was impossible not to be confident.

"This!"

Xia Jingyan's beautiful eyes were like water, her heart stirred; she had previously thought this man was just bragging.

After all, for a Loose Cultivator without a master to want to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill, wasn't that just a fool's daydream? It was simply impossible.

But the man before her had realized every single thing he had bragged about.

Then this was no longer bragging, but a genuine legend.

The way she looked at Zhou Sui became increasingly tender.

Ji Bingyu's pretty face flushed red, her beautiful eyes looking at Zhou Sui with deep affection, as if she were drunk.

Suddenly, she swept Zhou Sui up into her arms; she wanted to sleep with this future Alchemist Grandmaster.

What?!

Seeing this scene, Zhou Sui was instantly stunned, feeling aggrieved inside; this woman was at it again, was there no reason left, was she amazing just because her cultivation was higher, actually bullying him one time after another like this?

Who exactly was the delicate wife now, did she really think he didn't care about his face?

But facing his Dao Companion's Qi Refining Ninth Layer strength, he was helpless and simply unable to resist.
