Chapter 1854: Chapter 685: Three Pills Unite, Assessment Passed

Regarding the pill formula for the Spiritual Root Pill, Luo Chen prepared the Heaven and Earth Roots as the main ingredient, supplemented by thirteen other herbs, including Night Plume Flower and Purple Monarch Leaf.

In addition, dozens of other herbs were prepared as backups, ready to be substituted at any time.

Does this sound like a small number?

In fact, this number is already considered large.

In Luo Chen’s view, although the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch’s conjecture was somewhat outrageous, ultimately it was intended for mortals who have not set foot on the path of cultivation.

Therefore, the rank of the Spiritual Root Pill couldn’t possibly be too high.

Too high a rank would mean that mortals couldn’t withstand the relatively terrifying medicinal power.

Meanwhile, for ordinary First and Second Order Pills, the number of main ingredients does not coexist in the same way as for Third and Fourth Order Pills.

As for the supplementary materials, Luo Chen already selected quite a lot.

The challenge was to leverage the advantages of Heaven and Earth Roots while avoiding some of its drawbacks. The complicated pairing of supplementary materials would be a difficult and meticulous task even for a Fourth Order Pill Refiner.

Fortunately, now that the main line was established, he could proceed with small-scale explorations.

Within the Alchemy Realm, Luo Chen roamed between the Three Mountains and Five Lakes, filling the Medicine Lou on his back repeatedly.

The herbs he needed were personally harvested by him.

One must admit this was a seemingly tedious task, yet filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Luo Chen also applied some of the knowledge he had learned from the bamboo slips in the study to the actual harvesting, some of which stemmed from experiences accumulated during the first half of his life.

It was at that moment he suddenly realized why most of the herbs in this world had an age of five hundred years or less?

In a valley depression, Luo Chen carefully dug out a segment of Withered Chen Zhibai, straightened up, and looked around.

"If this world is specifically set up as a medicine garden for testing the Spiritual Root Pill, then it makes sense for these herbs to have such low ages."

"Mortals can hardly endure the powerful medicinal force of herbs with excessively high ages."

"However, how did the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch manage to keep the ages of these herbs neither too high nor too low? In all the methods I know, none can achieve this."

Pondering for a moment, Luo Chen moved on to find the next herb.

Harvesting herbs was just a trivial little task.

After about half a month, Luo Chen successfully gathered most of the herbs he needed within the Alchemy Realm.

Then he returned to the Stone Cottage Pharmacy to begin different treatments.

Each herb required a different handling technique; some could be directly used, some needed to be air-dried beforehand, while others had to be ground into powder for future use.

During this process, Luo Chen’s understanding of these herbs became deeper, leading to more insights on the previously written Spiritual Root Pill formula.

While maintaining the Heaven and Earth Roots as the main ingredient, he experimented with other supplementary materials.

Time passed, little by little.

Another half-year went by, and when everything was ready,

Luo Chen did not immediately start attempting Pill Refinement.

Instead, he calmed his mind and opened the Attribute Panel.

There was no anxiety on his face since he had already tested whether he could open the Attribute Panel before.

However, unlike the usual basic attributes he mainly accessed, this time he specifically opened the Pill Refiner section under the career tab.

Career Tab:

[Fourth Order Pill Refiner]

[Pill Technique: Inverse Scale Hand Finalization, Juniper Heron Hand Finalization, Finalization Pill Technique (click to query details)]

Second Order Pill: Dissipating Stasis Powder Perfection 376/500

Presented before him was a simplified Pill Refiner attribute panel, with most of the content reduced.

Compared to back then, several new pill entries appeared, though they were not truly unfamiliar.

The Purple Qi Imperial Poison Pill was a fourth-order antidote pill Luo Chen specially improved for his journey to Purple Spirit Island. After succeeding in his mission at Purple Spirit Island, he ended his efforts there.

The third-order pill, the Nether Origin Pill, remained unperfected; it was a formula he learned at the time to break through to the Golden Core Period.

In the second-order pills, a new entry was added for Dissipating Stasis Powder. He learned this pill to heal hidden injuries left during Body Refinement to recover more quickly.

However, at this moment, none of these mattered.

Luo Chen glanced at the number of Achievement Points at the end of the panel [300]

This was his greatest reliance!

Originally, he had 334 Achievement Points, but earlier, he spent 34 points to quickly achieve beginner level in the Fourth Order Kai Mao Technique. This expenditure was worthwhile for Luo Chen and somewhat unexpected.

Initially, he thought the Fourth Order Technique would require more Achievement Points; however, after mastering the prerequisite Art of Origin Core and Bead Curtain Lock, he only needed thirty-four points to achieve the beginner level.

Now with a full three hundred points remaining, he had immense confidence in deducing the pill formula.

"Even if someone goes before me, if the test questions are the same, no matter how advanced their Pill Refinement Technique is, if they aren’t at the level of the Central Continent Pill Saint, they will have to trial and error step by step, consuming endless time and energy."

"But I am different. With the panel in hand, there’s no need to waste so much time!"

"Even the process of refinement itself allows for energy-saving."

Luo Chen smiled faintly, growing more confident in his heart.

He believed that although the precursors might have high Pill Refinement Technique attainments, otherwise they wouldn’t have passed the first gate in less than three years since the Land of Fallen Demons opened.
