"This is where the disciples of the Alchemy Hall make pills. You'd better not get too close, because some of the disciples are still novices and their furnaces often explode easily."

"This room is incredible. It's your beautiful little Fourth Senior Sister. It will be the alchemy room of the future. When I can be independent, I will make alchemy here."

Jiang Li did not walk in a straight line on the way to register with Xiao Si. This kind and eccentric senior sister took him to visit the Alchemy Hall area and introduced him to the layout and taboos here.

"Sister Xiao Si, in the Alchemy Hall, are there many alchemy creation rooms like our master's?"

Jiang Li noticed that there were very few white houses in the Chuangdanfang area, only a few in total.

"Not much. The investment in creating a new pill formula is really too huge. Even with the support of the sect, it is still a huge pressure and challenge for the alchemist himself."

"In our Sutra Valley, there are not many alchemists who are capable of creating pills. Teacher Chifa is one of them. They don't usually create pills."

"Only when I have inspiration will I apply to the sect for resources to support the creation of pills."

"Chuangdan is not always successful. For example, Mr. Chifa has failed many times. Before I became his disciple, I think I also failed many times."

Jiang Li's eyes flashed inexplicably.

"So, what about those failed recipes? Were they all destroyed?"

He asked tentatively.

"How is that possible? Even though those recipes were not successful, they had already cost a lot. Even if they could not eliminate the side effects and the pills could not be made, they would still be a great reference for those who came after them."

"All the abandoned failed recipes are stored in the Alchemy Room. If you want to see them, you can."

Jiang Li's eyes lit up at Xiao Si's answer, but he didn't show it. He chatted and laughed all the way, and finally registered at the management office of the Alchemy Hall.

The so-called registered disciple does not mean a true disciple, and Jiang Li is still an outer disciple.

In fact, in the Alchemy Hall, there are quite a few registered disciples from both the outer and inner sects.

This means that one of their abilities was noticed by the elders, and they were accepted as disciples, taught, and sent out.

Of course, in the Alchemy Hall, most of the registered disciples were chosen for their talent in alchemy, but Jiang Li was chosen because of "alchemy testing".

But the reason is not important. After registration, Jiang Li, like other disciples, can directly enter and exit the Alchemy Hall and formally receive instruction in alchemy.

This is different from the marginal teaching of the elders in the Transmission Hall, which only gives brief hints. Only here can Jiang Li truly learn in-depth knowledge.

When he returned to the Dan Chuang Room, the red-haired elder was no longer there. It seemed that he had gone to ask the sect leaders for rewards for the pills and recipes.

However, there were a few things left on the long table.

In addition to Jiang Li’s reward for today, there was also an alchemy robe, an alchemy book, and a small alchemy furnace.

"Junior Brother Jiang Li, these things were left for you by the master."

"This small alchemy furnace was used by Master when he was young."

Oh? Is there something special about this furnace? Jiang Li thought.

"My former senior brother also used it, and later I used it, and now the master is giving it to you again."

Jiang Li: (_) ... I think too much.

"Sister Xiao Si, can we go take a look at the old discarded pill recipe?"

Jiang Li suddenly asked.

"Waste the recipe? Why are you looking at those? You don't want to succeed in improving the recipe, do you? It's impossible. Even the master and the elders didn't succeed."

"No, no, it's just that you know, Senior Sister, the price of a finished pill recipe is very expensive."

"I have just started learning alchemy, and I don't seek success. I can first use the waste alchemy recipes to accumulate some experience, don't you think?"

Jiang Li made up a reason, and Xiao Si thought about it and felt that there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it, so he didn't object anymore.

"Is that so? Well, follow me."

Xiao Si took him around to a large room at the back.

As soon as I opened the door, the strong smell of rotting paper hit me in the face.

These are all discarded pill recipes that are still in the testing and improvement stage, and very few are valuable enough to be preserved in jade slips.

"Most of the medicine here is yellow-grade medicine. The difficulty of refining these two bookshelves is relatively low. You can pick one from here."

Jiang Li's lips were dry as he looked at the rows of bookshelves. It seemed as if he was looking at piles of glowing spirit stones.

Jiang Li picked and chose for a long time before finally selecting a recipe he liked. He took out a pen and paper and started copying it down.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

After a long time, Jiang Li compared the text again, and after confirming that there were no mistakes or omissions, he put away the recipe and left.

Jiang Li returned to the outer gate carrying the small alchemy furnace and was seen by some people, which attracted a lot of envious attention.

A pill furnace, although it is a small one and an old one, but its price is estimated to be more than one hundred spirit stones.

This price is already too expensive for ordinary outer disciples to afford.

What's more, buying an alchemy furnace naturally means that he is practicing alchemy, a secondary profession that is sought after by everyone in the world of immortal cultivation. If one can make some achievements in this, it can even enable a low-level cultivator to cross the class barrier.

Especially for many cultivators with low-grade and inferior spiritual roots, their cultivation is basically hopeless, and these secondary occupations may be the path they can take.

Jiang Li returned to his room and put the alchemy furnace on the table. He closed the doors and windows, checked that no one was eavesdropping or peeping, and then took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.

This is one of the abandoned recipes of Sclerotium.

Jiang Li brought it out after swapping the waste pills on his body.

After Jiang Li took the pill, his skin did not show any changes, but he took it as a failure and told the Red-haired Elder the reason.

But in fact, what appeared on his panel was a prompt like this.

【Take the experimental hard skin pill, absorb the energy and harden yourself. 】

[Energy absorption hardening: The skin hardens after absorbing spiritual energy. The hardening intensity is determined by the absorbed spiritual energy. The duration is 2 hours] (-+)

The effect of the previous pill had passed. After Jiang Li took the pill, he waited for a moment.

Then he gathered some spiritual energy and sent it to his palm.

The spiritual energy was quickly absorbed by the surface of the skin. Jiang Li only felt that his palms became solid and heavy, as if he was wearing a layer of armor.

Sure enough, this is very interesting.

[Taking an overdose of the experimental hard skin pill, the psychic weapon will act on oneself, and after the effect ends, the skin will petrify itself. 】

[Psychic Armor: Skin hardens after absorbing spiritual energy, spiritual energy absorption speed increases, hardening strength is determined by absorbed spiritual energy, hardening coefficient × 2, duration 2 hours] (-+)
