Ning Fan would never have thought that Xue Qing could smell out the number of pills just based on the scent of the medicine. This keen sense of smell is something he was born with, and Ning Fan asked himself, he couldn't learn it.

Refining 200 Spirit-Reinforcing Pills at the same time is not too easy for Ning Fan now.

This was also the fourth level of his alchemy skills. It would be extremely difficult for other third-level alchemists, such as Xue Qing, to refine 10 spirit-solidifying pills at the same time.

Fortunately, Ning Fan has the strength of his spiritual thoughts at the peak of the golden elixir. After taking the Divine Refining Grass and Coral Ming King, his spiritual thoughts are stable and solid, and he has a little more agility than before.

Half an hour later, his eyes suddenly flashed, he slapped the lid of the cauldron, and before the scent of the medicine could be released, he flicked his sleeves and used his spiritual thoughts to seal the scent of the medicine and the elixir into each jade bottle.

‘Shen Nian Feng Dan’!

This method of sealing the pill is a wonderful secret of the "Nine Turns of the River Cart", which can ensure that the fragrance of the medicine does not dissipate and the medicine is more powerful. Apart from Ning Fan, there is probably no other person in the Immortal World of Rain who knows how to do it.

"It finally became a pill...,."

Ning Fan wiped the sweat off his head and breathed a sigh of relief. He did not immediately take the Spiritual Pill to break through, but first crossed his legs and adjusted his breathing.

A single elixir is enough to increase the concentration of spiritual energy in an immortal vein, gradually transforming it into a solid state. However, it is not necessarily successful. Depending on the alchemist's level of alchemy, the success rate of the spirit-consolidating pill is different.

Ordinary second-level alchemy masters can only refine the spirit-fixing pills with a one-third success rate. The elixirs refined by third-level alchemists such as Xue Qing may have a half success rate. As for what Ning Fan said,

The refined Spiritual Pill has at least a 90% success rate! This is quite a terrifying number!

Half an hour passed, and Ning Fan restored his mana to full before taking out the Spiritual Pill and taking it.

As soon as the medicinal power is dissolved, an extremely abundant medicinal power rushes straight into the immortal veins. The immortal veins in the late stage of Rong Ling become tough and wide after being promoted to the spirit. And Gu Ling allows the mana in the immortal veins to continue to flow.

It enhances spirituality, becomes rich and viscous, and changes to a solid state, laying the foundation for forming a golden elixir.

One meridians...ten meridians...hundreds of meridians!

The Yin and Yang Demon Veins refine the medicinal power very quickly, but the disadvantage is that the magic power flows too fast, which causes swelling and pain in the Immortal Veins. But the pain is nothing compared to the Jade Emperor Pill.

It lasted for a day and a night. After one day, Ning Fan let out a loud roar, and his momentum suddenly rose, turning into a strong wind and spreading out. His magic power was more than doubled than before!

Cultivation, peak of soul fusion!

As for his spiritual thoughts, as his cultivation level improved, he reached the realm of half-step Nascent Soul, and it was difficult to improve even a little further.

There are bottlenecks in cultivation and spiritual thoughts at the same time. Cultivation is the bottleneck of Jindan, but divine thoughts are the bottleneck of Nascent Soul!

At this point, it is useless to take any more elixirs. The bottleneck of the golden elixir must be retreated to death, and the inner demons can be slain. It will not be possible to break through it even if it takes decades.

Feeling the vast magic power in his body, Ning Fan had a thought in his mind, flicked his finger, and a ray of lightning came out of his finger, hitting the bluestone on the ground.

The bluestone, called Ghost Rock, is known for its hardness, but Ning Fan casually blasted a small hole in the bluestone, half an inch deep and as big as his thumb.

And the damaged areas of the bluestone are slightly burnt.

Thunder in the Palm! That ray of lightning is a magical power that can only be used by the old monster of Jin Dan!

Ning Fan's cultivation level has not yet reached the golden elixir, and he can only cast a trace of lightning, which is not considered palm thunder, but the power of a trace of thunder is probably not weaker than ordinary spiritual level spells.

"This is the method of the golden elixir master...compared to the soul-melting master, it is not that the amount of mana is stronger, but the quality is different..."

He closed his eyes, calmed down the joy of improving his strength, and gradually felt calm.

Golden elixir, golden elixir...it's just one step away, and you can form the golden elixir and become a master-level figure in the Yue Kingdom.

Half a year ago, I was just a mortal. Half a year later, I already have shocking strength. My strength has improved too fast... And the inner demons that have arisen must be extremely difficult to kill...

The leader of the Hehuan Sect who bullied him back then, Sha Jiuyou, was just a tenth-level woman... In the eyes of Ning Fan today, she was simply not good enough.

The home back then was the Ning family in Haining. It seems that the ancestor of the Ning family is now just a monk of Fusion Spirits...

"They are too weak..."

Ning Fan's tone was very calm. Hehuan Sect, Ning family, and the enemies of the past were now just ants in his eyes, not worth mentioning and dismissing.

His state of mind is changing... He is adapting to the identity and state of mind of a strong man!

He stood alone for a long time, then opened his eyes, exhaled a thick breath, calmly, and sat down cross-legged again.

Collect the remaining Spirit-Consolidating Pills in one place to slightly stabilize the state. When the aura is completely solidified, start refining other pills again.

...

All day and night, Xue Qing waited outside Ning Fan's alchemy room with a somewhat respectful expression.

He didn't dare to make a sound for fear of disturbing Ning Fan. He was 30% sure that Ning Fan was a fourth-level alchemist!

He believed in his sense of smell and his ability to identify the aroma of medicine was praised by a fourth-level alchemist back then.

Even the fourth-level alchemy master's ability to identify the fragrance of medicine is no better than Xue Qing's.

Based on his sense of smell, he was 30% sure that he could deduce Ning Fan's alchemy skills... And if he could observe Ning Fan's alchemy in person, his confidence would be even greater.

He, Xue Qing, stood respectfully outside the stone gate, as if a disciple was guarding the master, just like the situation when he learned the art from Cheng Men many years ago.

Many masters who came to the Alchemy Hall to make alchemy, when they saw Xue Qing personally guarding the alchemy outside, they all gasped as if they had seen a ghost.

"Hiss! Who is making alchemy in this alchemy room, so that the dignified elder Xue Qing can wait like this? This person is so proud..."

"Look, what is registered above the house number is the Dual Cultivation Hall...Double Cultivation Hall... No one among those lawless women knows how to make elixirs... Could it be that Elder Ning Fanning is refining elixirs among them!"

"As expected of Elder Ning... Even Xue Qing, the dignified third-level alchemist, has such respect for him..."

These masters all sighed and praised each other, but as soon as they made a sound, they immediately received Xue Qing's cannibalistic look.

The eyes are fierce and inhumane. This Xue Qing is also a demon cultivator, not a good person at all!

"Go, go, go! Get out of the Alchemy Palace, me! The Alchemy Palace is not open to anyone today!"

Xue Qing's tone was ferocious, and he even slightly released the golden elixir's pressure. However, his voice was kept extremely low, giving people an extremely funny feeling.

Xue Qing was afraid that his voice would be too loud, which would cause any adverse effects on Ning Fan's alchemy.

All the old monsters who came to make alchemy were driven out of the alchemy hall arrogantly. Xue Qing vacated the alchemy hall to make alchemy for Ning Fan alone!

He waited patiently here, and finally, the stone door of the alchemy room opened with a roar.

Accompanied by bursts of medicinal fragrance, an extraordinary young man walked out of the alchemy room, looking slightly tired.

Although his expression was tired, his aura was completely different from before entering the alchemy room.

Xue Qing was about to ask, asking what level Ning Fan's real medicine refining skills were, but before he could speak, he felt Ning Fan's aura coming towards him and was stunned for a moment.

"Peak Soul Fusion! You broke through the Peak Soul Fusion!? It only took one day!?"

Xue Qing's voice was a bit sharp and harsh due to excitement.

"Haha, it's just a fluke. Ning is a little tired today and will come to the Alchemy Hall to refine elixirs another day."

Ning Fan bowed to Xue Qing and walked away.

At the same place, Xue Qing was stunned. Because of the shock, he even forgot to ask Ning Fan about his level of alchemy.

Xue Qing is somewhat concerned about Ning Fan. After all, Ning Fan is a disciple of the old devil. According to Xue Qing's understanding, Ning Fan was in the middle stage of Fusion Spirit before joining the sect. After entering the Demon and Ghost Forest for a month, he was already a Fusion Soul when he came out.

In the late spiritual stage, he only entered the alchemy room for one day and reached the peak of spiritual integration...

Regardless of alchemy, this cultivation talent is really shocking! Even if you practice dual cultivation of magic skills, it is impossible to achieve this kind of cultivation speed!

"This boy, this boy...how did he do it..."

Xue Qing was stunned, and suddenly felt that it was extremely ridiculous for him to look down on Ning Fan at the beginning. This guy, with his hundreds of years of experience, could not see through it at all.

After Ning Fan left, Xue Qing slapped his forehead and finally remembered that he was so stunned that he forgot to ask about Ning Fan's alchemy skills.

"Confused, really confused, how could I forget this..."

Xue Qing was annoyed and secretly blamed himself. However, even without asking Ning Fan personally, he was still sure of one thing.

When Ning Fan walked out of the alchemy room, the scent of the medicine was undeniable... it was the smell of thousands of second-level elixirs!

In just one day, Ning Fan actually refined thousands of second-level elixirs in the alchemy room!

Perhaps, Ning Fan is not a fourth-level alchemist, but at least he is a third-level alchemist!

"Hiss! A 17-year-old third-level alchemist... or even a fourth-level alchemist!" Xue Qing's eyes revealed a fiery gaze, and he did not look down on Ning Fan at all!

Xue Qing had an impulse to catch up with Ning Fan immediately and have a good exchange on alchemy, but after a second thought, he put away this idea.

"That's all, Elder Ning needs time to break through to the peak of soul fusion and stabilize his realm. I'd better not disturb him. He said that he will come back to refine the elixir in a few days... Well, I'll wait for him!"

Unknowingly, Xue Qing addressed Ning Fan with an honorific, and called himself "I" instead of "I"...

Calling a change also shows that Xue Qing recognizes Ning Fan from the bottom of his heart!
