Chapter 200: Adding Some Drama

After a moment, Chen An stared at the elixir in front of him, lost in thought.Yes, after adding some points, he decided to try again.

Just like before, he tried ten times this time as well.

But the results this time were very different from before.

Ten attempts at alchemy, all successful!

And each elixir he produced was of extremely high quality, without any flaws.

Undoubtedly, these elixirs could be considered top-notch, with very minimal residue or toxicity.

Even though they were just small elemental elixirs, they could probably fetch a good price, and most likely have no trouble selling.

The reason why Chen An was lost in thought was because he was so pleasantly surprised that he hadn't fully processed it yet. Sᴇaʀᴄh the NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

After a while, he finally came to his senses and a smile returned to his face.

This was definitely a good thing.

Previously, he had thought that only cultivation could be boosted by adding points, while other things like alchemy would still rely on his cultivation.

But now, it was clear that he had underestimated the power of the leveling up template.

Boosting cultivation was just the tip of the iceberg. The real cheat was in boosting everything, whether it was cultivation or alchemy.

As long as there was enough source power, everything could be boosted.

Thinking carefully, it made sense that alchemy techniques could also be boosted.

The leveling up template didn't just boost cultivation, it boosted specific inheritances.

As long as you had a specific knowledge system and had mastered it, the template could boost it based on what you had mastered.

Therefore, martial arts could be boosted, martial skills could be improved, and even alchemy techniques could be enhanced.

After all, these inheritances were not much different.

It was only a difference in knowledge systems.

But for the leveling up template, this was clearly not a problem.

And that's how he ended up with the results he had now.

For Chen An, this was undeniably good news.

It meant that in the future, as long as he mastered a certain alchemy technique, he could quickly boost it using the leveling up template, without having to go through countless trials like other alchemists to improve a meager success rate.

This was truly a great thing.

Chen An could already see countless spirit stones beckoning to him.

Everything was so wonderful.

With a smile on his face, he looked ahead.

After another boost, the formula for the small elemental elixir had changed again.

At first, it showed mastered, then after the first boost, it became proficient. Now, it had turned into perfect.

But there was a plus sign after perfect.

However, this was no longer an addition of points, but a deduction.

Chen An didn't move again.

Just the second boost alone had cost him one hundred source power. If he continued to deduce, who knows how much source power it would consume.

That was money at the end of the day.

The more critical issue was that he still had many alchemy techniques to learn, so there was no need to consume source power to deduce new formulas, which could be both costly and unnecessary.

What benefit would he have from deducing a completely new alchemy technique?

On one hand, new elixirs might not sell well, and on the other hand, they might raise suspicions.

Why bother?

Chen An had no intention of causing trouble for himself, so after trying, he left.

Before leaving, he took out the small elemental elixirs he had refined and handed them over to the pharmacy.

There was no way around it; this was the rule.

Although Steward Huang had given Chen An face by allowing him to use the alchemy furnace for free, the materials needed for alchemy still had to be provided by Chen An himself.

According to the pharmacy's regulations, the consumption of these materials could either be offset by the refined elixirs or paid for with spirit stones.

Previously, Chen An had mostly paid out of his own pocket, taking out spirit stones from his pocket to settle the bill.

There was no way around it. Although he could refine some elixirs before, the success rate was too low, and the failure rate was too high to offset the materials he used.

The excess portion had to be offset with spirit stones.

Fortunately, the refining materials for the small elemental elixir were not expensive, and he didn't lose much, otherwise he might not have been able to afford it.

Now the situation was much simpler.

Simply taking out some good elixirs from the refining materials was enough to settle the debt.

And this was only part of it; Chen An had plenty more, and they were all of superior quality.

This was pure profit for Chen An.

As he walked out of the main hall, Chen An looked up and saw that it was already dark outside.

At this time, according to the usual routine, Chen An would have already gone back to rest.

But this time, Chen An didn't go back, instead heading in another direction.

After a short walk, he arrived at a bustling market and strolled around there.

Having not visited for a month or two, the market had changed considerably.

A new product was being sold here, and it was quite popular.

Chen An looked and was surprised to see the main product was blood.

It was human blood, but not ordinary blood, it was the blood of warriors.

In the market now, there were many sales of the blood of warriors, mostly from martial warriors with Gang Qi.

Even more outrageous was that the blood of innate warriors was also being sold.

Compared to the blood of Gang Qi warriors, the value of this innate warrior blood was very high, often being snatched up and bought at a high price.

Chen An even saw a cultivator buy a small bottle of innate warrior heart's blood for one hundred spirit stones.

The whole scene made Chen An question life.

At this time, he even wondered if he was right to learn alchemy.

Looking at the prices and the market, he couldn't help but think maybe he could earn more by selling blood instead.

Why bother with alchemy?

Of course, this was just a joke.

It would be one thing for Chen An to sell some ordinary blood, but he wouldn't dare to sell blood like what was being sold here.

Just look at what was being sold.

The heart's blood of innate warriors, bones tempered by innate Gang Qi, and even news of hearts, flesh, and multiple organs being sold.

Just seeing this scene was scary enough to scare people away.

If ordinary people sold blood like this, where would they end up?

Most likely, they would have turned into a pile of minced meat long ago.

"Have they gotten into trouble?"

This thought crossed Chen An's mind.

Previously, he had heard from Hao Fa that the members of the Yue Sect were planning to join forces with nearby immortal sects to attack a group of incoming warriors.

Now, it seemed like they had succeeded.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many rich materials for sale.

It was just unclear who had the misfortune.

Chen An inquired and eventually got some concrete information.

Some said they had seen the body of a master, tall in stature, fierce in appearance, and very heroic.

Listening to these details, it seemed to be Master Nan Jue.

It made sense; among the group of incoming masters, he was the most high-profile, not only in his demeanor but also accompanied by several Gang Qi followers.

With such a high profile, if things really went wrong, he would be the first unlucky one.

The current situation only confirmed this.

Chen An wasn't particularly concerned about the death of Master Nan Jue.

Of course.

They weren't close, and their relationship was just a passing acquaintance, so there was no close bond between them.

When he heard the news of the other party's death, he remained calm, without much emotional fluctuation.

However, another piece of news he heard later made him uneasy.

"According to the captured person, there are still two innate escapees outside, hiding somewhere unknown, probably lurking."

"Unfortunately, they are smart and haven't exposed themselves. Otherwise, we would have had a big harvest."

"Who says otherwise."

The surrounding discussions were lively, but Chen An's mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that he had changed his name early on.

Otherwise, this group of people could have easily found him just by his name.

That would have been trouble.

Although Chen An could cheat, he didn't want to experience the traps of these immortal sect people.

One could imagine that it wouldn't be too pleasant.

So it was better to be inconspicuous.

Chen An sighed to himself.

But even so, he decided to keep a low profile in the future, at least until the heat died down.

Otherwise, if something went wrong, it would be very troublesome.

With this in mind, he quietly walked to the side and finally approached the familiar Qingfeng Pavilion.

Inside the Qingfeng Pavilion, Manager Liu was still busy, but when he heard Chen An approaching, he quickly came over and smiled at Chen An.

"I've got a batch of good elixirs. I don't know if Manager Liu is interested?"

Seeing Manager Liu, Chen An got straight to the point, asking directly.

This time, he had refined a considerable number of elixirs, and selling them individually at a stall would take a long time.

Instead of slowly retailing them, it would be better to sell them to Manager Liu, even at a lower price, to avoid a lot of trouble.

"Oh, let me have a look."

Manager Liu immediately became interested.

Because of the Liu family's relationship, he was very interested in Chen An and naturally knew that Chen An had been in the pharmacy for some time now, and his relationship with several alchemists there seemed good.

He didn't even think that Chen An had refined these elixirs himself; he thought Chen An had obtained a batch of good elixirs through the relationship with an alchemist.

Chen An didn't waste time and took out the elixirs.

One by one, the small elemental elixirs were poured out and placed on the tray in front of him.

Looking at the small elemental elixirs, Manager Liu was initially disappointed, but after checking the quality, he nodded in approval, "The small elemental elixir, though ordinary, has good quality and freshness."

"Looking at the color and texture of this elixir, it seems like it was just refined recently, right?"

After checking for a while, he said confidently.

In fact, they had just been refined today.

Chen An thought so, but his face looked calm, just nodding in agreement, "Yes."

"Well, that makes it easy."

Manager Liu nodded as well, thought for a moment, and then said, "The small elemental elixir is quite common, but it has a large consumption quantity. Your elixirs have good quality and freshness, so they should have no problem selling."

"I'll give you thirty spirit stones for all of these. How about that?"

"Deal."
