Rebirth of the Useless Bastard Son
Chapter 103.1 Table of contents

Elder Tian Min didn’t rush to say anything. He just continued to observe from the side. It wasn’t until Cheng Qi hit the same target for a whole day that Elder Tian Min finally shouted to stop, “Let’s rest first and continue practicing tomorrow.”

Cheng Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead, took back the whip, and touched it a few times. He thought to himself, this was the whip made by the young master himself, he must learn it quickly.

“Xiao Qi, are you interested in learning alchemy?” Elder Tian Min walked back to the hall with Cheng Qi, coughing twice before pretending to ask casually.

Cheng Qi said, “I already know how to make pills. The young master taught me.”

“What kind of pills did you know how to make?” Elder Tian Min asked with a suspicious look on his face. He thought that only Li Tianyan knew how to make pills. Could it be that Cheng Qi could also make pills?

“Yi Yuan Medicinal Pill, Meridian Renewal Pill, Barrier Breaking Pill, in short, I knew all the pills in the Alchemy Pavilion before, and I also made Qi Condensation Pill, Jingxin Pill, Tianling Pill.” Cheng Qi counted them carefully with his fingers.

The more Elder Tian Min heard about it, the more surprised he became. No need to mention the pills used by the warriors, the Qi Condensing Pill, and Tianling Pill were all Huang-level medicinal pills. So, the two of them were already serious Huang-level alchemists. Elder Tian Min didn’t know whether to be happy or melancholy. Taking on two genius disciples like this was really stressful.

However, Elder Tian Min still refused to give up, “Xiao Qi, how did you make alchemy on weekdays? Can you practice it with me once?  If there is something wrong, I can help you correct it.”

“Okay.” Cheng Qi nodded and agreed without thinking. Elder Tian Min was a Xuan-level alchemist, and he must have been more experienced in alchemy than him.

Following Elder Tian Min all the way to his alchemy room, as soon as the door was opened, the scent of alchemy fire hit his nostrils. Cheng Qi couldn’t help but look at the alchemy room curiously and found that the ground was paved with medicinal stones.

Medicinal stones could absorb the medicinal energy dispersed during medicinal pill refining. Over time, the medicinal energy could also improve the quality of the alchemist’s alchemy. He heard from Li Tianyan that many alchemists would find medicinal stones and slowly cultivate them when they first started. Unexpectedly, Elder Tian Min also cultivated it.

This alchemy room was not spacious, but it looked quite neat. In addition to a three-foot-tall alchemy cauldron standing in the middle, there were more than a dozen different materials neatly placed on one cabinet wall. The small alchemy cauldron and the other cabinet wall were all arranged with Huang-level spiritual herbs.

There were also two futons made of Hexin jade on the ground. This kind of jade had the effect of calming the mind and allowing cultivators to concentrate more easily. Seeing such an alchemy room, Cheng Qi couldn’t help but feel envious.

“You can take any spiritual herbs you need from the shelves yourself. You and Tianyan can find a time to go to the sect’s alchemy hall to get certified as a Huang-level alchemist. The sect will give you two forty sets of Huang-level spiritual herbs, you only need to hand over forty Qi Condensing Pills every month,” Elder Tian Min said to Cheng Qi with a smile.

He didn’t know that they were already Huang-level alchemists; otherwise, they would have been sent to the Alchemist Hall yesterday.

Cheng Qi calculated that he could produce three Qi Condensing Pills from a cauldron of medicinal pills. In this way, he only needed a dozen sets of spiritual herbs to complete the task, and the rest were all his own. Suddenly he discovered that Tianfan Immortal Sect was quite generous.

But what Cheng Qi didn’t know was that for many Huang-level alchemists, it would be considered good  if they could produce two pills in one batch, plus the spiritual herbs that failed couldn’t be used again. Many new alchemy masters even wanted to cheat but couldn’t. As the sect’s forty sets of spiritual herbs were only enough for them to practice.

After Cheng Qi picked a pair of spiritual herbs that could be used to refine Qi Condensing Pills from Elder Tian Min’s spiritual herb shelf, he sat on the futon in the alchemy room, took out his own small alchemy cauldron, and started refining the pills.

A purple fire with a weird color fell into the alchemy cauldron. Cheng Qi put several spiritual grasses into the alchemy cauldron one after another for tempering until all the impurities were removed from the spiritual grass and turned into concoction, and then the medicinal pill was carefully made.

Elder Tian Min sat opposite and watched carefully, and found that Cheng Qi’s alchemy movements were quite smooth. The most surprising thing was the purple fire. He had developed the magical power of fire during his Qi Condensation period, which showed that he had excellent qualifications. Elder Tian Min suddenly realized that he really found a treasure.

After the concoction was successfully transformed into medicinal pills, a fragrance of medicinal pills suddenly floated out of the medicinal pill cauldron. Cheng Qi opened his eyes and poured out the medicinal pills from the cauldron. As expected, three Qi Condensing medicinal pills came out, one of which was a high quality and two were of medium quality. Although this was not bad for others, Cheng Qi still pouted in dissatisfaction.

Li Tianyan could produce six top-grade medicinal pills every time he refined Qi-Condensing Pills, but he had never been able to produce more than three, and medium-grade medicinal pills often appeared.

After watching, Elder Tian Min thought for a moment and then said, “It’s not bad, but some details of handling medicinal materials need to be corrected. But was your alchemy really taught to you by Tianyan?”

After Elder Tian Min observed Cheng Qi making alchemy, he noticed a very strange problem. Cheng Qi occasionally made mistakes in some simple steps, but excelled in the most difficult step of making the medicinal pill. He wondered how Li Tianyan had taught him.

“Yes, the young master would do it a few times for me to see, and then let me practice by myself,” Cheng Qi nodded matter-of-factly.

“Just for you to see? Didn’t he explain anything to you?” Elder Tian Min frowned and asked.

“Yes, when I first started learning alchemy, I couldn’t do it well and wasted a lot of medicinal materials. Later, the young master taught me how to use the divine sense to observe the shape of the concoction in the cauldron when making the medicinal  pill. After I tried it a few times, the medicinal pill was really refined,” Cheng Qi answered seriously.

His words left Elder Tian Min stunned for a long time. Finally, he found his voice, “Can you really see the concoction in the alchemy cauldron?”

“I can only see black shadows, not very clearly,” Cheng Qi truthfully replied.

Elder Tian Min was speechless for a moment. Cultivators could gain the divine sense when building the foundation. They would have spiritual consciousness and could see things that the naked eye could not see. When Cheng Qi was just practicing Qi Condensation, the divine sense should not yet be enlightened, so Li Tianyan taught him how to use the divine sense. He really dared to tell others to do the impossible. What was even more surprising was that Cheng Qi actually did it.
