"Beng!"

An explosion came from within Yun Xie's courtyard, followed by the sound of shattering, followed by a few laughter and curses.

"What the hell? Why do I keep making mistakes?"

The room was in a mess, Yun Xie's hair was in disarray, he was patting the broken pieces of his body, his white clothes were dyed in different colors, the air was filled with the pungent smell of burnt clothes.

"Hehe, Young Master has failed again."

Yun Liu chuckled at the door. As he turned his head to look at the situation inside the house, he jokingly said to a strong man beside him, "Boss, how many times has Young Master gone this far?"

The person beside him was named Yun Da, and was the first to follow Yun Xie.

Looking at Yun Xie's expression, even Yun Da's mouth twitched, this young master, aiya! He didn't know where he got this prescription from, but he wanted to learn pill refining. Even though he admired his young master and never doubted his abilities, after so many years of training outside, he wasn't optimistic about his young master's chances.

This was because pill refiners were the most prestigious occupation in the continent. In order to become a pill refiner, one had to meet all the requirements! In addition, every pill formula was priceless. How could a pill master's flesh and blood be casually found in that stall?

Besides, forging pills isn't something that one can do in private, and one needs the guidance of a master teacher. On the other hand, the young master fumbled around by himself, destroying innumerable medicinal herbs and even buying innumerable shattered pill furnaces.

"What the hell is going on?"

Yun Xie sat on the ground, holding onto the broken pieces of the cauldron, and from time to time he would pick up the scraps to sniff, as though he did not understand.

On this continent, pills were scarce. What Yun Xie knew was that the pills were divided into nine grades, and the middle, high, and top grade ones were divided into four grades. The Primordial Spirit Pill that he refined was only a level two pill, which could help him break through the Innate realm.

In the Sacred Realm, Yun Xie had once received the inheritance of the Ten Thousand Pill Formula in the Central Region, he was the peerless Pill Emperor, there was no mistake in the pill formula and refining methods. This was originally a low level pill that was never seen before, why was refining it now extremely difficult?

Yun Xie had considered the effects of environment and strength, but that did not seem to be the key point.

Looking at the Primal Chaos Fire swaying in his palm, Yun Xie was suddenly stunned, he smacked his head and laughed out loud. Although the power of this fire ability, Burning Spirit, was greatly reduced, it could not be looked down upon by ordinary spirit flames. Directly using it to refine pills was really stupid! How could he use a cow-knife to kill a chicken?

After understanding the situation, his mood was elated. Yun Xie stood up and prepared to continue refining the Source Spirit Pill, but he suddenly realized that he did not have any more ingredients, so he gave some instructions and headed towards Old Man Yun's study.

"Grandfather."

"What is it?" Old Man Yun was currently reading a military manual. Even though he wasn't on the battlefield, his heart was still in it.

"Grandson wants to go to the treasury to gather some medicinal materials."

The old man put down the book in his hands, feeling a bit confused. This kid had been to the treasury multiple times and had taken all the required items as well. Why had he come today to ask for his permission?

"If Yun'er needs anything, just take it yourself. There's no need to tell grandpa about it."

Yun Xie laughed, "Grandfather, grandson wants to retrieve some spirit medicine."

The old man raised his head and looked at Yun Xie. With so many wounded soldiers, the mansion had many spirit medicines, but these herbs were precious and were kept in the depths of the treasury.

And when he thought of his conversation with Yun Xiao Yu that night, he immediately gave the key to Yun Xie.

"Take what you want. I'll leave the key by your side in the future."

In the depths of the treasury, a row of Moonlight Stones were neatly embedded into the walls, glistening brightly. Yun Xie looked for the ingredients needed to refine the Source Spirit Pill, but there were simply too many of them. Thinking about the future, if he wanted to refine other pills, he would need all sorts of ingredients, so he decided to use his storage ring to store all of them.

Further in, there were various kinds of strange stones and weapons displayed. Yun Xie took a glance at them and noticed that there was a glittering command medallion placed on the table right in front of him, inscribed with the word "Martial."

The Martial Imperial Medallion.

Yun Xie knew about this item. Back then, when Old Man Yun followed the Martial Master to fight in all four directions, he had established the Wu Yang Empire and established a brilliant military achievement. On the day of the founding of the kingdom, His Majesty bestowed upon him a military order.

This is a good thing! Yun Xie rubbed his hands together as he inwardly rejoiced in his heart, in the future when I take it out to act cool, I want to see who dares to offend me.

However, he suddenly realized in his heart that his temperament had truly changed!

If it was before he could not cultivate, then using his identity as the young master of the Yun family to make a fool of himself could be considered a form of concealment. Now that everything was normal, why was he still thinking this way … was he really accustomed to it? Was he really such a good-for-nothing?

Forget it, who cares! Be it righteous or evil, as long as you have a clear conscience.

After obtaining enough ingredients, Yun Xie returned to his room to continue concocting pills. This time, he changed his method. Instead of using the primordial flames to refine the pellet, he fused them with his own spiritual energy and used it to condense the pellet.

"Acceptance of external Qi, nourishment of the inner spirit, division of the five elements, fusion of yin and yang …"

"Form on the outside, heart on the stove, spirit on fire, the universe …"

Yun Xie repeatedly practiced his pill techniques, both of his hands constantly changing techniques, throwing herbs and ingredients into the furnace, using the spirit fire to extract and condense the pills, over time, it became more and more wonderful, sometimes confused, sometimes smiling, he was completely immersed in it, standing still, one with the heavens!

After a long time, a milky-white pill slowly rose from the pill furnace. It emitted a faint light and a rich pill fragrance drifted out.

The two people standing at the door looked over, one of them was trembling with excitement, staring at each other with a face full of incredulity, both of his big heads stretched out as he looked in.

Success?! The young master had actually refined a pill!

Yun Xie looked at the Yuan Spirit Pills that were rolling around in his hands, his expression did not have much change, and he casually picked up a jade bottle to store it.

Not only did a master alchemist enjoy a wealth of resources, he also had a huge favor to show for it. If there was a need, there would be countless major powers coming after him! In this way, the most respected apothecaries in the world would be the apothecaries, and the ones one mustn't offend would be the apothecaries!

In the holy realm, there was also the matter of a pill refiner killing a sect and a family. Yun Xie had experienced this before, it could be seen how powerful the pill refiners were!

Yun Xie then threw in another batch of medicinal ingredients like flowing water. The number of pills condensed at first, gradually increased from one pill to two, then to three, and finally to nine. In the end, there were also seven to eight finished products, and their quality gradually stabilized as well.

At this moment, Yun Xie's head was heavy, his soul was exhausted, and he finally stopped. He was overjoyed. He had finally picked up his old book and stepped into the Dao of alchemy once again.

As for Yun Da and Yun Liu who were at the door, they were not as happy.

Every time Yun Xie concocted a batch of pills, the color, light, and quality would appear. Although he didn't know much about pill concocting, he could see with his eyes that each pill was better than the last!

Not only did the young master manage to refine more pills, he even managed to refine them better!

The two of them were drenched in sweat as they stood at the entrance, trembling. They did not even dare to make a sound, afraid that they would disturb Yun Xie.

This, this, this is a pill refiner? Furthermore, it was a pill refiner who grew up under his nose!
