Chapter 282: Heaven Grade Qi Blood Pill

Next, it was time for the formal alchemy process.

Fortunately, the alchemy technique after fusion not only improved the quality of the pills but also greatly shortened the refining time.

Originally, it took a quarter of an hour to refine a furnace of pills, but now it could be completed in just twelve minutes; in other words, one more furnace could be refined every hour.

"Refining five furnaces of pills in an hour, 200 furnaces would take 40 hours. Alchemy really is time-consuming," Lu Yu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

He had also considered whether the efficiency could be faster if he got two more alchemy furnaces. It was a pity that there was only this one Alchemy Room in the Base, and it only contained one Alchemy Furnace.

"Forget it, when I start refining True Qi Pill, I'll mention it to the president to see if another alchemy furnace can be added to this room." Lu Yu silently noted this idea in his heart, then officially started the alchemy.

Time slipped away minute by minute in his concentration. "Boom!" A crisp and pleasant sound suddenly came from the alchemy furnace.

"Success!" Lu Yu immediately closed the furnace fire with quick eyes and fast hands, then carefully opened the furnace lid and took out a furnace of steaming pills.

He saw that this furnace of pills were all of top-grade quality, each one red and round, with their surfaces shimmering with an alluring luster, as if they were brilliant rubies.

The rich pill fragrance instantly permeated the air, and in the blink of an eye, it filled the entire Alchemy Room. That mellow aroma made one feel intoxicated just by smelling it.

"It seems that the one-in-ten probability of a Heaven Grade pill appearing is not that easy," Lu Yu muttered to himself, then picked up a Top-grade Blood Qi Pill and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation.

【Consumed Top-grade Blood Qi Pill, Potential Point increased by 80,000.】

The system's prompt message instantly appeared in his mind.

In less than ten seconds, the entire furnace of Top-grade Blood Qi Pills had been swallowed by Lu Yu.

At this moment, his Potential Points had reached: 23.8 million.

"To open the fourth meridian, at least 60 million Potential Points are needed. Currently, it seems there is still a long way to go," Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh, but he was not discouraged and continued to devote himself to alchemy.

One furnace, two furnaces, five furnaces... just like that, Lu Yu kept refining.

Until the eighth furnace, finally, a Heaven Grade Blood Qi Pill appeared before his eyes!

This Heaven Grade Blood Qi Pill was no different in size from a Top-grade Blood Qi Pill, but its surface seemed to be covered with a thin, almost imperceptible film, making the color of the pill look even more vivid and eye-catching, like a rare treasure.

"Heaven Grade..." Lu Yu couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, his eyes full of surprise and excitement.

He gently held the pill between his thumb and index finger, placing it under the light to examine it carefully.

It had to be said that the appearance of this pill alone gave one a feeling of near perfection, as if it had condensed the essence of heaven and earth.

The next moment, Lu Yu did not hesitate at all, directly putting the pill into his mouth and swallowing it.

After all, pills were meant to be consumed to increase strength; one couldn't just leave them there like works of art to be admired.

As the pill entered his stomach, an incomparably pure medicinal power instantly surged within Lu Yu's body.

However, before he could even carefully feel this medicinal power, it quickly merged into Lu Yu's body.

【Consumed Heaven Grade Blood Qi Pill, Potential Point increased by 500,000!】 Seeing the information prompt in his mind, Lu Yu's eyes widened suddenly, his heart full of shock.

Good heavens, a single Heaven Grade Blood Qi Pill could actually increase 500,000 Potential Points!

This was almost equivalent to half a Low-Grade Gathering Spirit Pill, or the Potential Points increased by more than six Top-grade Blood Qi Pills.

"It's just that the probability of this appearing is really too low," Lu Yu sighed helplessly.

He had refined eighty pills before this one Heaven Grade Blood Qi Pill finally appeared.

It was conceivable that the subsequent refining would likely be the same situation.

Even if he were lucky, it would be quite good if 200 furnaces of pills could produce 20 Heaven Grade Blood Qi Pills; if his luck exploded, 30 would be the limit.

"It seems that honestly refining True Qi Pill is more reliable," Lu Yu thought while putting a new furnace of pills into the Alchemy Furnace.

After all, one Low-Grade True Qi Pill could increase 100,000 Potential Points, and even if a Mid-Grade True Qi Pill didn't have 500,000 Potential Points, it probably wouldn't be far off.

And a High-Grade True Qi Pill might approach or even exceed one million Potential Points.

As for a Top-grade True Qi Pill, the increase in Potential Points would probably be several million!

Thus, Lu Yu continued to focus on refining pills. Unknowingly, the night passed quietly.

Immersed in alchemy, Lu Yu was still full of energy and spirit, as if he hadn't noticed the passage of time at all.

And in Yang City, a thousand miles away from Yongan City, at the city gate, a group of Martial Artists were looking ahead with reluctance.

Two people stood in front; among them, one man had a firm face, his two thick eyebrows slanting into his temples like sharp swords, giving people a strong feeling of stability and reliability.

What was particularly eye-catching was the fiery red long saber on his back; that long saber seemed to contain scorching flames, emitting a sharp aura.

The other person was a woman, dressed in a black tracksuit that set off her tall figure perfectly.

She wore a neat ponytail, and the whole person looked vibrant and full of youthful energy.

In reality, she was already over forty years old, but she looked like a young woman in her early twenties.

The woman also carried weapons on her back, two long swords crossed in an 'X' shape, the blades flashing with cold light.

"Two seniors," in front of the many Martial Artists, a middle-aged man smiled all over his face, his tone carrying a fawning meaning, and asked cautiously: "Could we ask the two of you to stay here for one more day? It would allow us to fulfill our duties as hosts."

"Yes, two seniors, thanks to your careful guidance last night, we have benefited a lot. We haven't had a chance to repay this kindness properly yet," another Martial Artist quickly echoed.

"That's right, two seniors, no matter what, please stay for one more day. Among the many small cities, our Yang City is quite well-preserved in all aspects. Staying to visit more and feel the local customs of our Yang City would be good too."

"Yes, yes, two seniors, just stay," the Martial Artists spoke up one after another to persuade them to stay, their eyes full of reluctance.

Because these two in front of them were genuine Vein Refining Late Stage Martial Artists; it was said that they had already opened seven meridians, and even the last one, the Du Vessel, was about to be opened.

Moreover, they came from the headquarters; those were Vein Refining Late Stage Martial Artists from the headquarters!

To be honest, don't look at the fact that there were also Vein Refining Late Stage Martial Artists in medium-sized cities; although the Realm was the same, the strength had a world of difference!
