Chapter 87 Yin Qianyin's Shock

"I have taken the pills you refined. Among the first-grade human alchemists of the Traceless Sword Sect, no one has been able to refine a first-grade human spirit pill of that quality. I believe you are on the verge of breaking through to become a second-grade human alchemist. Just a little more progress, and you can become a second-grade human alchemist." Yin Qianyin said to Mo Wuji earnestly.

Mo Wuji had no choice but to say, "Actually, I have already tried to refine second-grade human spirit pills, but I haven't succeeded yet."

With so many spiritual herbs in this place, how could Mo Wuji not try to refine second-grade human spirit pills after refining first-grade human spirit pills? He not only tried to refine them, but he refined more than just one or two batches. He refined nearly sixty or seventy batches of second-grade human spirit pills, and all of them failed without exception.

Fortunately, the spiritual herbs here were piled up like mountains, otherwise, even the most powerful sect would not be able to withstand his torment.

Later, Mo Wuji concluded that he did not yet have the ability to refine second-grade human spirit pills, mainly because his accumulation was too little. After he stopped refining second-grade human spirit pills, he refined a pile of Gathering Spirit Pills, Recovery Pills, and Blood Nourishing Pills.

Yin Qianyin smiled faintly, "The reason why you haven't broken through to become a second-grade human alchemist is very simple, it's because of two reasons. First, deep down you always felt that becoming an alchemist was very, very difficult, and you were very satisfied with becoming a first-grade human alchemist in a short time. So subconsciously you felt that it was impossible to become a second-grade human alchemist in a short time, this is a lack of confidence.

Second, when you were refining second-grade human spirit pills, your control over the herbs in the furnace was still at the level of refining first-grade human spirit pills. This point, as long as you give it some time, you will automatically correct it. But now that I'm here, I will correct your mistakes in the shortest possible time, so that you can correctly refine second-grade human spirit pills."

Mo Wuji was stunned when he heard this. Yin Qianyin was absolutely right about the first point. He subconsciously really thought that it was impossible for him to become a second-grade human alchemist in a short time. As for the second point, he didn't have much experience.

"Don't ask me how I know, because I've been through it too. And don't think that it's impossible to become a second-grade human alchemist in a short time. I heard my master say that my grandmaster only spent half a year from learning alchemy to becoming an earth alchemist. In this world, there are geniuses, and these geniuses have talents in certain areas that ordinary people cannot understand. You can become a first-grade human alchemist in just over half a month with the theoretical knowledge you have learned for many years, you are also a genius in the Dao of alchemy."

After hearing Yin Qianyin say that her grandmaster became an earth alchemist in half a year, even though he knew that Yin Qianyin was trying to boost his confidence, Mo Wuji still had to admit that Yin Qianyin's words had worked. In his feeling, alchemy did not seem to be as difficult as others said. He was indeed influenced by rumors and ignored his own advantages.

His advantage was that he had a very good understanding of the characteristics of various plants when he was on Earth. After coming into contact with the Wordless Pill Book, his understanding of the characteristics of spiritual herbs was far better than that of ordinary alchemists, and he could even infer three things from one. Coupled with his hand gestures and pill incantations, perhaps he could really take another step forward.

Yin Qianyin continued, "In addition, another important criterion for judging an alchemist is how much he can achieve in the purification of spiritual herbs. For ordinary spiritual grass purification, how much can you achieve now?"

Mo Wuji told the truth, "It should be able to reach more than 80%."

Although he believed that he could achieve 90% in spiritual herb purification, Mo Wuji had not been in contact with this aspect. He didn't know if his calculation was correct, or if there were other standards, so he simply said less.

When Yin Qianyin heard Mo Wuji say that he could achieve 80% or even more in the purification of spiritual herbs, she couldn't help but shake her head secretly, and at the same time, her opinion of Mo Wuji plummeted.

Even she could only achieve a little more than 80% in the purification of spiritual herbs. Generally, a first-grade human alchemist can achieve 60% to 70% in the purification of spiritual herbs, which is already considered good. The higher the purification degree of spiritual herbs, the more difficult it is to achieve. It's like a person has reached 89% in the purification of spiritual herbs, but it may take decades to reach 90%.

Because of this, she thought Mo Wuji was bragging. The reason why Mo Wuji dared to brag was because he thought she couldn't see it. Little did he know that with her realm of alchemy, as soon as Mo Wuji started refining pills, she could see how much Mo Wuji had purified the spiritual herbs.

"Senior Sister Yin, then I'll try to refine a batch of second-grade human spirit pills. If there are any mistakes in the middle, please give me some pointers, Senior Sister Yin." Seeing that Yin Qianyin was not speaking, Mo Wuji cupped his fists and said sincerely.

Yin Qianyin nodded, "Okay, you refine them now."

She did not expose Mo Wuji, even if Mo Wuji's pill refinement and purification were far less than 80% later, she would not expose him.

Mo Wuji chose the Clear Poison Pill. This pill was a second-grade human spirit pill that could dissolve various poisons. Mo Wuji had failed to refine dozens of batches of second-grade human spirit pills before, and the Clear Poison Pill accounted for half of the attempts.

Seeing that Mo Wuji had chosen the Clear Poison Pill, Yin Qianyin seemed to understand why Mo Wuji had not readily agreed to deal with the Life Devouring Beast with her. Obviously, Mo Wuji valued his own life very much. Yin Qianyin sighed inwardly, fortunately Mo Wuji's spiritual root aptitude was very poor. If Mo Wuji's spiritual root aptitude was very good, then he would have wasted this spiritual root aptitude and alchemy talent.

In her opinion, a person who valued his own life too much and was afraid of death would find it difficult to go further on the path of cultivation. How could cultivators have smooth sailing? Eventually, there would be times to face life and death.

However, the Clear Poison Pill that Mo Wuji chose was just right. As long as Mo Wuji could refine the Clear Poison Pill, then he should be able to refine the Vitality Udumbara Pill.

Mo Wuji naturally didn't know what Yin Qianyin was thinking. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care. He naturally cherished his own life, which was definitely not fear of death. Taking meaningless risks with his life was not in his character.

If he thought that the matter he was facing was more important than his own life, he would not retreat half a step even if he knew that he would die immediately.

Refining the Clear Poison Pill was indeed to prepare for any eventuality. Back in Raozhou, he was almost poisoned by the poison arrow wood. Now that he had started cultivating, he was in contact with immortal masters in the eyes of mortals. If he was poisoned, whether he could still smell it was another matter.

Since he had become an alchemist, what was wrong with refining some detoxification pills for backup?

The herbs were the freshest, Mo Wuji used a fire stone to light the pill furnace and began to clean the pill furnace.

After the pill furnace was cleaned, Mo Wuji put the spiritual herbs into the pill furnace one by one and began to purify the herbs.

After seeing Mo Wuji's method of cleaning the pill furnace, Yin Qianyin was surprised. When she saw Mo Wuji using hand gestures to cooperate with Yuan Power to purify the herbs, instead of interfering with the purification of the herbs with the help of external objects like other alchemists, Yin Qianyin stood up abruptly.

She could be sure that the pill refining inheritance that Mo Wuji had obtained was not simple. In the Traceless Sword Sect, except for her, she had not seen a second human alchemist who could use hand gestures to cooperate with Yuan Power to purify herbs and refine pills. She herself could do this in the human alchemist realm because her pill refining inheritance was originally very remarkable. And she could do this when she was already a third-grade human alchemist.

Now she saw that Mo Wuji could use hand gestures to cooperate with Yuan Power to refine pills in the first-grade human alchemist realm, which made her unbelievable. Even she couldn't do it. But the fact was right in front of her, Mo Wuji was doing it.

In fact, Mo Wuji had already begun to restrain himself. When he saw Shi Jun using 'spatulas' to purify herbs, Mo Wuji knew that his alchemy hand gestures and pill incantations were very remarkable. Because they were very remarkable, he did not use pill incantations and purely used hand gestures to refine pills.

He had a premonition that the pill incantations could not be casually shown to others. Moreover, his cultivation realm was still a bit reluctant to fully use pill incantations to control the pill refinement. The pill incantations said to use divine sense to control, he didn't know what divine sense was, so he could only use his will to forcibly control. The pills refined in this way were sometimes good and sometimes bad. When they were good, they were much better than the pills refined by hand gestures, and when they were bad, they directly failed.

Being able to use his will to control was a skill that Mo Wuji had inadvertently learned when he guided lightning to bombard his meridians. Now that he had cultivation techniques, he no longer needed to use his will to control the lightning arcs to bombard his meridians. Now, when he was learning alchemy, it was used again on the pill incantations.

The impurities of the spiritual herbs were removed by Mo Wuji with hand gestures, and then formed residues that were thrown out of the pill furnace by Mo Wuji.

The shock in Yin Qianyin's eyes grew stronger and stronger. She found that Mo Wuji's words were not bragging, but too modest.

The spiritual herbs purified by Mo Wuji were definitely 80%...

No, it's more than 80%. After Mo Wuji patted some residues out of the pill furnace again, Yin Qianyin almost exclaimed in surprise.
