The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

As soon as Su Jingzhen spoke, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Dantai Mingjing’s mouth.

“Very well.”

Dantai Mingjing didn’t show any pretenses.

He directly took the Breaking Through Adversity Pill and put it away.

Su Jingzhen’s eyes sparkled with anticipation once again.

“Senior, I’ve already mastered the Breaking Through Adversity Pill, but I’m still unclear about the entire alchemy process. Please teach me!”

Since Dantai Mingjing had already shown such appreciation for him, Su Jingzhen naturally wouldn’t let this opportunity slip away.

He had the Golden Finger, but for now, it could only be used to increase his cultivation and physical strength.

As for alchemy, he could only improve by increasing his wood-attribute spiritual roots.

If Dantai Mingjing could casually explain it to him, he would greatly benefit.

Upon hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, Dantai Mingjing smiled and said, “No hurry.”

He then turned his gaze to Xuening, who was standing beside him.

“Girl, use the same materials to refine a Breaking Through Adversity Pill as well. Since Friend Su will become your partner in the future, it’s necessary for you both to understand each other’s abilities.”

The one who was most excited to hear Dantai Mingjing’s words was Feng Qingya, who was standing beside them.

Dantai Mingjing himself hadn’t come out of seclusion, but judging from his attitude, he seemed to be willing to impart his knowledge to Xuening and Su Jingzhen.

Perhaps Dantai Mingjing’s current state meant that his personal alchemy skills had declined significantly.

However, his experience and stored knowledge were his greatest treasures.

Feng Qingya had witnessed Su Jingzhen’s terrifying alchemy talent.

If he could receive Dantai Mingjing’s guidance, Su Jingzhen might be able to make a breakthrough in this one attempt.

As Feng Qingya thought this, Xuening took a step forward.

“Master Su, may I borrow your alchemy furnace?”

In response, Su Jingzhen made a welcoming gesture and took a step back.

Xuening arranged the materials for the Breaking Through Adversity Pill beside the alchemy furnace. Her clear and beautiful face gradually revealed a serious expression.

She quickly entered a state of focus, just like Su Jingzhen, sensing the materials, igniting the furnace, and starting the alchemy process. Her movements were as smooth as flowing clouds, and seemed to possess a more elegant beauty compared to Su Jingzhen.

Su Jingzhen stared intently at Xuening’s movements, watching the occasional changes in the flames within the furnace and her precise control over the various materials.

His heart grew increasingly solemn.

Compared to Xuening, he, although already excellent, seemed to be lacking something.

Before long, a fragrance wafted from the Black Mountain, and Xuening lightly tapped the alchemy furnace. A perfectly round and radiant Breaking Through Adversity Pill flew out of the furnace.

Even without holding the pill in his hand, Su Jingzhen knew that Xuening’s creation was even more exceptional than his own. The quality seemed to be a level higher.

It was comparable to the one he had refined in the Clear Wind Mountain’s mystical land, but he couldn’t refine a pill of such quality even after leaving the mystical land.

This was enough to prove that Xuening surpassed him in alchemy skills.

“This… this is a superior-grade pill!”

Feng Qingya exclaimed, her face filled with shock and joy.

Dantai Mingjing, however, remained silent, not yet offering his evaluation.

Feng Qingya, as a member of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, had experience with many things and was knowledgeable about the appraisal of pills and spiritual instruments.

The spiritual aura on this pill was truly exceptional.

Dantai Mingjing’s eyes lit up, and he took the Breaking Through Adversity Pill from Xuening, examining it briefly before nodding in satisfaction. “Indeed, it’s a superior-grade pill!”

Upon hearing their words, Su Jingzhen’s eyes showed a hint of confusion.

He directly asked, “Senior, what does ‘superior-grade’ mean?”

As a novice, he didn’t feel embarrassed asking such a question.

Dantai Mingjing and Xuening exchanged a glance, both showing a hint of surprise, and Dantai Mingjing seemed to have realized something.

“Generally speaking, when a pill reaches the top grade, it can perfectly exhibit the maximum effect of the pill, without any side effects or toxins.”

“Therefore, no matter what kind of pill, reaching the top grade is the pinnacle of that pill. However, a superior-grade pill is one that has exceeded its expected quality and limit.”

“For example, this two-star Breaking Through Adversity Pill, after reaching the superior grade, is comparable to a three-star or even four-star pill. Some superior-grade pills may even have additional effects beyond their original purpose.”

Dantai Mingjing paused, then continued, “Friend Su, your technique in refining the Breaking Through Adversity Pill is so skilled, and you must be familiar with this pill.”

“This pill is somewhat rare, but in specific situations, it can be comparable to a three-star or four-star pill. However, such situations are extremely rare, and those who need it will usually prepare in advance.”

“But a superior-grade Breaking Through Adversity Pill can be comparable to a four-star pill in value! Not only does it have its original effect, but it also has a collection value!”

As soon as Dantai Mingjing spoke, Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat, and he was overwhelmed with excitement.

One superior-grade pill was comparable to a four-star pill!

He was going to be rich!

Except for the one he had given to Luo Yuebai, he still had sixty of these superior-quality Breaking Through Adversity Pills!

In the cultivation world, one-star and two-star pills were common and could be purchased with a few spirit stones. However, three-star pills were rare and difficult to obtain. Four-star pills were even more scarce and usually required a specialized alchemist to refine or could only be found at large auctions. Four-star alchemists were extremely rare in the entire Qingzhou continent.

If Su Jingzhen were to take out sixty pills comparable to four-star pills, it would likely shock many people.

He suddenly felt regretful. He regretted giving away ten pills to Luo Yuebai. The value was secondary; the significance was extraordinary.

Fortunately, Luo Yuebai wasn’t Feng Qingya, who was knowledgeable about pills, and didn’t realize the quality of the pills at first glance. Otherwise, Luo Yuebai might not have let him off so easily.

To be frank, Su Jingzhen, who could refine superior-grade Breaking Through Adversity Pills in large quantities, was essentially a walking treasure trove!

After all, what if he got a recipe for a popular pill and mass-produced super-quality pills?

“Master Su, what’s wrong?”

Feng Qingya was surprised and shocked by Xuening’s alchemy skills.

But she also noticed Su Jingzhen’s slightly trembling body.

“Nothing, nothing. I’m just surprised by the pill’s quality, and there’s even a superior grade. I’m also amazed by Xuening’s alchemy skills.”

“I used to think I was a genius in this field, but after seeing Xuening, I realized that there are people beyond people, and skies beyond skies. I’m truly in awe!”

His words were meant to cover up his true feelings, but they were also genuine. At least, without relying on the Clear Wind Mountain’s mystical land, he couldn’t refine superior-grade pills.
