Chapter 1529: Chapter 1549 He is a Genuine Pill King!_1

"Mr. Lin, all the medicinal herbs you specified are ready for use. What’s your next move?", asked the boss.

Lin Chen replied with a laugh, "I’m too lazy to move everything. Do you have a meditation room available? If so, prepare one for me; I’ll refine pills right here."

The boss of the Sea Flower shop smiled, "Of course we do, let me organize that for you, Mr. Lin."

Lin Chen turned and said with a laugh, "Before Senior comes back, I’ll go ahead and make five million Spirit Stones. I won’t be able to keep you company, feel free to look around."

"Alright, you focus on your work, don’t worry about me," the shop owner obliged.

Yao Xuanji chuckled, "Whether we get a breakthrough or not, depends on you. Can you really handle this?"

"It shouldn’t be an issue; don’t worry about it," Lin Chen confidently reassured her.

Looking at Lin Chen’s confident smile, Yao Xuanji’s worries reduced considerably.

She felt Ao Li’s love for Liu Xueying. However, with that love came high expectations and a big risk. The damage of a failure to Ao Li would be immense, and his consequent violent reactions were unpredictable.

After Yao Xuanji left, the meditation room was ready.

Lin Chen entered the room, ready to focus on pill-refining.

Although Lin Chen had practised a lot of high-grade elixirs at Ouyang Jing’s, in the end, he only refined a few that could greatly improve his manipulation technique. Not every elixir was refined. However, this was a new opportunity.

How much money he earned wasn’t very important. What counted was this chance to hone his pill-refining skills once more, in preparation for the upcoming Destiny Jade Algae Pill and Phoenix Vermillion Blood Pill.

Ever since Lin Chen entered the room, the shop owner began to feel hopeful.

What if he succeeds?

At the end of the day, Lin Chen walked out of the room and came to the hall.

The shop owner stood up abruptly from his chair, eagerly looking at Lin Chen.

Although he didn’t believe logically Lin Chen could succeed, emotionally he was hoping he could.

After all, if Lin Chen succeeded, the shop owner stood to benefit immensely!

The shop owner estimated the time. One day would probably only be sufficient to refine two or three batches.

Lin Chen shrugged, "The first two batches failed..."

The boss’s hopeful expression suddenly froze.

What on earth could I have expected?

He’s so young, how could he possibly have succeeded?

Fortunately, no matter what he attempts, he pays his own bills. I don’t have to worry about losing on my side. Plus, selling him the herbs allows me to make a decent profit...

As the owner was comforting himself internally, Lin Chen continued, "Luckily, the rest were successful. It felt a little unfamiliar in the beginning, but I should fare much better subsequently."

The boss was stunned, "You succeeded?"

Lin Chen took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to the boss, "This is the third batch, average quality."

Average quality?

The boss took the porcelain bottle and glanced at it, his eyes suddenly widened.

Did he genuinely succeed in refining the pill?

Though two batches were ruined, since the pill success rate is extremely low, the selling price of the medicinal pills will be high. Even if only one batch was formed, he still stands to make a profit!

As the boss was still in awe and excitement, Lin Chen had already handed over another two porcelain bottles.

"These are the fourth and fifth batches. Top grade."

What?

The boss looked up, his eyes landing on those two porcelain bottles, gone blank.

There’s more?

Lin Chen laughed, "Overall, I refined five batches; two batches failed, it’s not bad."

So he failed two batches at first, and then consecutively succeeded in the next three, and the quality even escalated from average to superior?

The boss finally came to his senses, looking at Lin Chen with newfound awe.

Pill King!

The rumors were true; he was indeed a Pill King!

The boss’ demeanor instantly turned respectful, "Mr. Lin, did you refine five batches in one day?"

Lin Chen nodded, "I took some time initially to figure things out. However, I reckon refining five batches a day shouldn’t be a problem. Now, you can start selling the medicinal pills..."

The boss’s eyes lit up, "Alright, I’ll get the word out immediately. Rest assured, Mr. Lin, there’s a countless number of demon cultivators in Wanli Palace with a high demand for these types of medicinal pills. You definitely won’t have any trouble selling them."

Lin Chen laughed, "Alright, for the time being, I’ll concentrate on refining pills here. You prepare the herbs needed for a month."

A month?

If he can refine five batches a day, that’s approximately 150 batches in thirty days! How many pills could that be?

Even if I only take 20%, I stand to earn a considerable amount of money. More importantly, it would stimulate the sales of other Sea Flower products.

"Alright, Mr. Lin, I’ll make sure all is ready to go," agreed the boss.

For the next few days, Lin Chen quietly refined pills while Sea Flower advertised relentlessly, attracting an endless number of demon cultivators to buy the pills.

All the demon cultivators learned that Wanli Palace had invited a pill refiner. This pill refiner was the champion of the latest Pill King Competition, the new title as Pill King!

Many powerful demon cultivators visited Lin Chen, hoping that he could help refine pills for them. Without exception, they all offered generous rewards.

Lin Chen was refining pills to earn Immortal Spirit Stones to buy Blue Charm Demon Crystals, he naturally did not refuse.

After all, it doesn’t matter what he refines.

Helping these powerful demon cultivators refine pills not only earns him a generous reward, but also earns him favors...
