Peerless Sovereign

If the materials were selected, someone would bring them over within a short period of time.    

As a Apothecary Guild, he did not need to worry about the raw materials for Tier 1 pills.    

Su Lie slightly adjusted his mood and immediately walked forward. Lifting his right hand, he slowly pressed down.    

As his right hand descended, the light on the door started to flicker and then slowly became fixed.    

A line of text appeared on it, gradually taking shape.    

"Qi Gathering Pill, peak grade one pill. The effect can condense the energy within one's body and increase the attack power by several folds."    

It was an extremely simple introduction, but it caused Su Lie to frown slightly. In the end, he slowly let out a sigh and said helplessly: "Such bad luck, I really did get a peak first-grade medicinal pellet … Forget it, let's just leave it at that. "    

Although he had practiced in the Ling Feng Merchant Guild many times, he still had a high chance of failure!    

To Su Lie, refining a peak first-grade pill was not a guarantee of a 100% success rate.    

"Forget it. Let's begin. If that is not possible, we can use our blood to forcefully improve our quality …"    

Shrugging his shoulders, Su Lie sat down cross-legged and began absorbing the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.    

The density of the surrounding spiritual energy made him feel relaxed and happy.    

Not long later, someone naturally delivered all of the ingredients.    

He took over all the materials!    

Su Lie walked in front of the cauldron.    

Xiao Yan placed both hands on it and Essence Qi slowly surged out. Immediately, a raging flame started to burn within the Pill Cauldron.    

"Next is to refine the medicinal ingredients …"    

He casually grabbed a piece of Qi Condensation Grass from a pile of herbs beside him and threw it into the cauldron, starting his refining process.    

"..." Outside, Apothecary Guild.    

Hua Yi was anxiously watching Su Lie's refining process. When he saw that Su Lie had actually drawn out a peak first-grade medicinal pill, he instantly sucked in a breath of cold air.    

Even a grade-1 apothecary would find it difficult to forge a grade-1 pinnacle pill!    

The first time he accepted the test, he would be nervous.    

If this continues, it won't be much fun if he fails.    

Hua Tong, who was at the side, sneered as he looked at the scene in front of him with interest.    

Hua Yi and Hua Tong were originally brothers. Even though they weren't biological, they still stood out in the same family.    

Coming to this Heaven Origin City Apothecary Guild, their relationship was also extremely good.    

However, as long as one was human, they would be influenced by power.    

Hua Yi was one step ahead of him in the competition to break through to Grade Four Alchemist!    

Meanwhile, Hua Tong had been stuck at the pinnacle of Grade Three Alchemist for more than ten years.    

To an apothecary, reaching grade-4 was a completely different realm for them!    

The difference in strength caused the difference in power. Hua Tong's attitude towards Hua Yi also became more and more vile. He was even as fierce as water and fire right now.    

And right now, Hua Yi was already the core of the association. He was extremely close to all those who practiced martial arts.    

However, Hua Tong had trained with all his heart but still failed to break through to Grade Four Alchemist. Such a result caused many people to sigh.    

"This kid's refining method is so crude, I'm afraid he hasn't even come into contact with refining pills for a year."    

After observing for a while, Hua Tong said sarcastically, "Hur Hur, it would probably be difficult to get someone to make a grade-1 pinnacle pill."    

Hua Yi glanced at her, but didn't say anything.    

The success or failure of refining a pill was not something he could control.    

Time passed bit by bit. Through the protective screen outside, he could clearly see the process of Su Lie's refining.    

Hua Tong initially had a mocking expression on his face, but now he stopped talking.    

The reason was simple. Although Su Lie's refining method was crude, from start to finish, he had not made a single mistake!    

Only after he had refined all the herbs did he stretch out his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead and sigh.    

Those herbs have already been refined!    

Even though it was mediocre and didn't have any outstanding points, there was no mistake. All of its medicinal effects had been preserved.    

"The next step is to form the pill …"    

Hua Yi's eyes narrowed slightly as he suddenly laughed softly.    

Su Lie had completely entered a state of mind. According to this, the possibility of him making a mistake while concocting pills was very small.    

As the curtain descended, Su Lie's hands moved rhythmically as he controlled the size of the flames.    

The liquid or powder gradually fused together into a ball under the unceasing roasting of the flames.    

"Is there a time limit for this kind of examination?"    

With a strange laugh, Hua Tong suddenly said while looking at Hua Yi.    

"Yes, time is limited to one hour. If the two hours are not enough for the pill to be refined, then the points can be deducted. "    

Hua Yi nodded his head. Indeed, there was such a rule. However, most of them were ranked after becoming an apothecary. No one would pay attention to them during the assessment.    

Hua Tong chuckled, then looked at the clock on the wall and sneered, "There's only a quarter of an hour left."    

"What?"    

Because the rules had been relaxed, Hua Yi hadn't really cared about time.    

Now that Hua Tong mentioned it, he was immediately shocked.    

There was indeed only a quarter of an hour left.    

Although Su Lie's pill refining process was also nearing the end, it would still be very difficult for him to complete the final condensing pill in fifteen minutes … Ke ke, if he was unable to complete it within this period of time. "This examination has failed …"    

Hua Tong sneered and a hint of craftiness appeared in his eyes.    

Hua Yi's expression was cold, but he began to worry in his heart.    

Although not many people complied with this rule, it still existed. It would be troublesome if Hua Tong wanted to correct him … Inside the Pill Refining Room, Su Lie's refining process had also finally come to an end!    

Watching the Pill Cauldron take shape again, a strong aroma wafted out. Taking a deep breath, Su Yun felt refreshed.    

"I'm in good shape today."    

Muttering softly, Su Lie's gaze suddenly focused. His right hand left the fire outlet and he placed it on top of the Pill Cauldron.    

"Whooosh."    

A strange feeling began to spread from his palm, and that pill fragrance was actually all absorbed into his palm!    

The heat spread out from his palm, passing through the layers of meridians in his body before finally entering into his dantian.    

A faint dragon's roar sounded, engulfing that stream of heat. After that, it became silent, without a single sound.    

"This scene has appeared many times. Could it be that the dragon in my body needs this kind of Core Qi? "    

When the pellet was first formed, it would release a few Innate Dan Qi along with it.    

Although these items had extremely pure energy, most of it had been distributed over time.    

Even if he was able to absorb it, it wouldn't be of any use because there weren't many of it.    

And now, the dragon inside him actually needed something like that!    

This caused Su Lie to be slightly surprised. Being surprised was being surprised, but every time he was refining the pill, he would do it according to the instructions. It didn't have any effect on the pill either.    

This small movement did not attract Hua Yi and Meng Duan's attention.    

After silently waiting for the pill to be formed, Su Lie slowly withdrew his Essence.    

With a flick of his finger, a stream of Essence shot out and enveloped the pill.    

He took out a jade bottle from his Cosmic Bag and slowly put the pill into it.    

He let out a long breath, opened the door, and left the room.    

"Heh heh, but the time limit was three minutes."    

The moment he walked out of the door, he saw a dark expression on Hua Tong's face.    

He paused for a moment and then looked at Hua Yi.    

Although he didn't understand what was going on, he still handed the jade bottle over.    

As the door slowly opened, a rich fragrance immediately filled the entire venue.    

"The pill is round and smooth, and its medicinal properties are well-preserved. It is a very successful Qi Nodding Pill."    

Hua Yi narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the pill's quality. He then said softly, "Congratulations, you've passed the test to become a first rank alchemist."    

"Phew …"    

Su Lie instantly let out a breath of relief. He looked at Hua Yi and asked, "What three minutes?"    

Hua Yi's face froze as he recounted the time limit.    

Su Lie's expression changed slightly and he did not say anything.    

"Of course, the rules are dead, and people are alive."    

Huayi then added, "If it is not too long ago, your qualification will not be revoked."    

After he finished speaking, he did not bother with Hua Tong anymore and walked to the side. He took out a Grade 1 Alchemist's badge from the counter and handed it to Su Lie. "Put this badge on, you are a member of my Tianyuan City's Apothecary Guild. If you fail to pass the Tianyuan Sect's examination, you can show me this badge. "    

Towards Huayi's disregard, Hua Tong's face turned slightly pale. In the end, he still let out a long sigh, glared at him, and walked out.    

Su Lie curled his lips and said his thanks.    

After teasing for a while longer, he also sped back to the inn and slowly sat down to recover his strength.    

Even though he had succeeded in concocting the pill, it still consumed some of the Essence in his body!    

Only by seizing the opportunity to recover, can he be in a better position to receive tomorrow's selection.    

What he was clear about was that Hua Yi didn't know his age.    

Even though there were few Tier 1 apothecaries in their twenties, it wasn't like there weren't any.    

However, a sixteen year old Tier 1 Pill Refiner … Probably, in the entire history of Tianyuan City's Apothecary Guild, this had never happened before.    

Zhang Xuan slowly took out a handful of spirit stones and crushed them. Then, he infused the spirit stones into his body.    

The comfortable feeling of the spirit energy surging within his body made Su Lie feel as if all the meridians in his body were burning, transforming into a stream of heat that flowed into his meridians.    

"The Five Spiritual Body has already broken through the fire and thunder attributes, but I haven't been able to achieve any of the other attributes."    

Su Lie's mind slowly sank down as he suddenly thought of something. He then muttered to himself: "If I can break through the third attribute today, not only will the great increase brought about eliminate exhaustion, it can also increase my strength by a large amount."    

With this thought, he didn't continue to neglect them.    

After pondering for a moment, his right hand took out a few water type magic cores.    

With a casual crush, he absorbed all of the attribute power into his body.
