Chapter 309: Special Teaching (1)

As time passed, more and more alchemists gathered around Alchemy Grotto No. 96, Twin Grotto-A. When He Sheng’s wife and children heard the news, they rushed over in exasperation.

“You’re already so old, yet you still want to break through. Can’t you just take care of yourself and stop tormenting yourself? Moreover, it’s fine if you tormented yourself, but you actually tormented yourself to produce a master. In the future, 10% of the profits in our rock cave will be distributed for nothing.”

“Father must be old and muddle-headed. So many Alchemy Grandmasters couldn’t help him break through, let alone this Alchemy Grandmaster who isn’t even a hundred years old.”

” Sigh, now that we’re apprenticed to him, we’ll probably not get any benefits other than offering him profits for nothing. He’s already so old. Can’t he leave more for his children? They’ll be better off after we leave. ”

Even He Sheng’s wives and children did not think that He Sheng could become a low-grade high-grade alchemist. They all sighed.

After all, the He family only had one Alchemy Grotto. Other than that, the entire family depended on this Alchemy Grotto for their livelihood and cultivation. If they did not have 10% of the profits, it would be a small disaster for the entire He family.

Of course, if He Sheng could break through, he would be the hope of the entire family.

The prosperity and decline of the entire He family was entrusted to He Sheng alone.

There were many alchemists like He Sheng in the Dragon Flame Grotto.

There was a huge crowd outside the cave, and basically no one was optimistic about Zhu Wuyang.

Inside the cave, Zhu Wuyang placed a hundred sets of materials for refining the Foundation Building Pill in front of He Sheng.

The Foundation Establishment Pill was a low-grade high-grade spirit pill. Generally, only the more powerful low-grade high-grade alchemists could refine it. Its difficulty was not inferior to some low-grade top-grade spirit pills.

However, He Sheng was only a low-grade middle-grade alchemist, so he did not have the ability to refine the foundation establishment pill.

Looking at the Foundation Building Pill Zhu Wuan placed in front of him, He Sheng said in astonishment, “”Master, you…Are you asking me to refine the foundation establishment pill?”

“Since I’ve placed it in front of you, I naturally want you to refine it. Could it be that you want me to refine this kind of low-grade spirit pill?” Zhu Wuwan looked at him and said.

He Sheng was stunned. But I’m only a low level middle ranked pill concocting master, I don’t have the ability to concoct a foundation establishment pill.”

“Then cross ranks to refine pills. I think you can do it.” ” Let’s begin, ” Zhu Wanwan said casually. ” A hundred sets of materials. When you’re done, I’ll prepare another batch for you. ”

He Sheng was stunned for a long time before he gritted his teeth. His hands and feet trembled as he began to inspect and process the medicinal ingredients needed to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Zhu Wuan only watched from the side and did not say a word, nor did he give any pointers.

As the most famous low-level spiritual pill, He Sheng naturally knew how to refine it. He had even dreamed many times in the past that he would be able to refine the Foundation Building Pill one day and earn a huge amount of resources and wealth to help him advance to the Golden Core Stage.

Regrettably, after failing many times in his attempts to concoct low-grade high-grade spirit pills, He Sheng no longer dared to dream of concocting low-grade high-grade spirit pills, let alone the more difficult foundation establishment pills.

However, he did not expect that the first task his master gave him was to refine the foundation establishment pill.

He Sheng didn’t dare to think too much. He carefully checked and processed the medicinal ingredients and began to refine the foundation establishment pill.

“Bang…”

Just as he put in a medicinal ingredient, an explosion sounded from the pill furnace. The first refinement had failed at the beginning.

He Sheng looked at the pill furnace that had fallen to the ground in shock. He looked at Zhu Wuwan in a panic. Zhu Wuwan’s expression was calm as she gestured for him to continue.

He Sheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and studied it carefully for a moment. He then realized that the ingredients had not been properly handled, which had caused the furnace to explode.

He Sheng quickly took out the second set of medicinal ingredients and began to process them again. At the same time, he carefully checked the medicinal ingredients that had been processed before. After ensuring that there were no problems, he began the second refinement.

His face was already a little red. After all, this kind of mistake could be said to be relatively low-level. As an old alchemist who had been refining pills for more than 200 years, he really should not make such a mistake.

The second attempt failed again because of a mistake in his technique.

Then, it was the third time, the fourth time, the fifth time…All the way to the fiftieth attempt, he had failed. He had wasted fifty sets of foundation establishment pill materials in vain, which was almost half of the He family’s assets.

“Master, I…I really can’t refine the foundation establishment pill. Master, can you allow me to stop? This is too wasteful of master’s medicinal herbs.”

He Sheng finally couldn’t take it anymore. He had not succeeded even once after refining so many times, and he hadn’t even passed half of the process smoothly. At this rate, even if he used up all 100 sets of medicinal ingredients, He Sheng wouldn’t be able to complete the process of the Foundation Building Pill.

Zhu Wuan’s expression was still calm. He glanced at him and said, “” I can only stop after I’ve used up a hundred sets of ingredients. If I fail, so be it. Is a hundred sets of ingredients a lot for me? ”

“This…” He Sheng wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Zhu Wuan waved his hand. ” Continue. Just use up all the medicinal herbs. After that, I’ll give you a simple low-grade superior-grade spirit pill for you to refine. ”

“Yes … Master!” He Sheng didn’t know what to say when he saw Zhu Wanhao’s firm attitude. He continued to refine the Foundation Building Pill.

However, this time, for some reason, He Sheng felt that refining was much easier than before, and he was much more relaxed. Perhaps he had removed his scruples, or perhaps he had given up.

He no longer considered the question of success or failure. He only boldly, seriously, and without any scruples walked the process of refining the foundation establishment pill. He did not consider the consequences of failure, nor did he consider how much he would lose. He only needed to complete the refining process fifty times.

This was not difficult for He Sheng. After all, he had been refining pills for more than 200 years. He was most familiar with the process.

At the same time, more and more alchemists gathered outside Alchemy Grotto No. 96, Twin Grotto-A. Most of them were here to make a fool of Zhu Wanhao.

” It’s been two days, but Zhu Wuwan and Hesheng still haven’t come out. It’s obvious that the advancement this time is going to fail. ”

” He was just bragging. It’s so difficult to advance from low-tier middle-class to low-tier upper-class. How could He Sheng do it in three days? ”

” Even an Advanced Alchemist Grandmaster would find it very difficult to help that old fellow He Sheng advance to Low-Grade High-Rank in three days, not to mention that Zhu Wuwan is only an Intermediate Alchemist, only one realm higher than He Sheng. How dare she boast like this? She really doesn’t feel ashamed. ”

” Perhaps He Sheng was fooled by his big talk and believed him. He gave away 10% of the profits from the Alchemy Grotto that he had been running for a long time, but in the end, he was turned into a joke by Zhu Wuyang. “
