"You just said you looked at a pill formula and then started refining pills. Let me see that formula," Su Yuewan said with a light cough.
She believed that Bai Hao was truly refining pills for the first time, because she believed that Bai Hao was fully capable of doing so.
Furthermore, Bai Hao also mentioned a prescription.
"Here." Bai Hao took out the pill formula that the system had given him from his pocket and handed it to Su Yuewan.
This thing wasn't a secret—at least not to him—so he handed it over casually.
But it's different for Su Yuewan.
Because Su Yuewan knew that the pill formula was just as important as the alchemist.
If an alchemist possesses exceptional alchemy skills but lacks the corresponding formula, even a sixth-grade alchemist can conjure a third- or fourth-grade pill out of thin air.
To refine a good elixir, an alchemist, materials, and a formula are all essential, and none of the three is absolutely more important than the other.
Many pill formulas on the mainland are passed down from alchemist to apprentice, and each alchemist has some pill formulas that are not passed on to outsiders.
Take the Dan Sect for example. As the only place where alchemists gather, they possess at least dozens of secret pill formulas.
Besides the secret pill formulas, there are quite a few publicly known pill formulas on the continent. After all, the Divine Radiance Continent has developed for so many years, and no secret can be kept forever.
However, compared to publicly available prescriptions, those prescriptions that are not passed on to outsiders are still more precious.
Su Yuewan was somewhat surprised to find that Bai Hao handed her a whole book of pill formulas.
She thought it would be a single prescription, but it turned out to be an entire book?!
An entire book of prescriptions?
She glanced through it and saw that each page contained a recipe for an elixir. The book had at least fifty pages, meaning there were at least a hundred recipes.
This guy actually has an interest in collecting pill formulas?
She muttered to herself.
In her opinion, Bai Hao's pill formula might look a bit scary, but it must contain some publicly available pill formulas.
There are only about a hundred publicly available prescriptions for elixirs on the mainland, so it's not that surprising.
However, when Su Yuewan opened the first page and saw the pill formula recorded there, she paused for a moment.
Cold-dispelling pill soup: First-grade pill, ten licorice roots, one ounce of fresh ginger, and ten white seeds.
What kind of prescription is this?
She knew there was such a medicine as the Cold-Dispelling Pill, but the recipe was completely different from what was recorded above.
Isn't this one of those publicly available prescriptions?
Filled with doubt, Su Yuewan continued flipping through the pages: Marrow Cleansing Pill, Void Shattering Pill, Body Tempering Pill...
She knew about some of the pills, and she didn't know about others. But regardless of whether she knew them or not, the formulas for those pills were different from what she had imagined.
Moreover, this list doesn't only contain recipes for first-grade pills; there are also recipes for second-grade, third-grade, fourth-grade, and so on, all the way up to the saint-grade. There are about a dozen or twenty recipes for each grade.
Moreover, she had never seen any of the prescriptions.
This...how is it possible?
Where did this guy get so many pill formulas?
Low-grade pills are one thing, but there are more than a dozen sixth-grade and saint-grade pill formulas, and the effects of those pills are amazing. How is that possible?
Even the Pill Masters couldn't possibly possess the formulas for so many high-grade pills.
"Where did you get this pill formula?" Su Yuewan stared intently at Bai Hao and questioned him.
"Uh... I found it in some remote corner... Do you believe me?" Bai Hao scratched his head.
He didn't have a reason for assigning the number yet.
"A remote corner? What remote corner would have so many pill formulas?" Su Yuewan pressed closer, her beautiful eyes fixed on him.
"Tell me the truth right now!"
"Actually, I don't know how I got it. Maybe I found it before, but I forgot."
I can't exactly say it was a system reward, can I?
You wouldn't believe it even if I told you, so please stop asking so many questions!
Hearing this, Su Yuewan was stunned for a moment.
system?
What system?
Could it be some reclusive master?
Of course!
She knew Bai Hao wasn't a simple person; he definitely had a powerful backer.
Although no one knows who this reclusive master called "System" is, the fact that he could so easily give Bai Hao such a precious pill formula suggests that he must be an extremely powerful being.
Thinking about this, Su Yuewan's attitude towards Bai Hao changed somewhat.
She felt she should respect Bai Hao—but in fact, she had this thought ever since she learned that Bai Hao could bring her Dao essence, and she knew she had to treat Bai Hao well.
However, when they were together, it wasn't that she didn't want to be nice, but rather that Bai Hao had too many inner thoughts.
It's one thing for her to have a lot of inner monologues, but to make matters worse, they're all sarcastic remarks about her. How could she not be angry?
When I get angry, all sorts of messy thoughts naturally disappear from my mind.
"So, you found that weird alchemy furnace along with this alchemy recipe?" Su Yuewan's tone softened suddenly. Her gaze swept over Bai Hao and then fell on the alchemy furnace in the kitchen that didn't look like an alchemy furnace at all.
Since Bai Hao was unwilling to reveal the true origin of these things, she wouldn't force him.
All you need to know is that it was given to Bai Hao by his master, a highly skilled individual.
"Yes, we picked them up together." Bai Hao realized what was happening and quickly nodded.
[Looks like she has a pretty good ability to make connections. She found the pill formula, so she must have found the alchemy furnace too. I like this kind of simple and straightforward understanding; I don't need to make up any more reasons.]
To be honest, Bai Hao was a little embarrassed to say that he found it, but he didn't expect Su Yuewan to say it first, so he simply went along with it.
But he didn't know that Su Yuewan actually knew everything.
"You said this is your first time refining pills. Since you're interested, you can learn from me from now on. I'll teach you how to refine pills," Su Yuewan said casually while flipping through the pill formulas.
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Bai Hao's face lit up with joy.
"Yes, when have I ever lied to you?" Su Yuewan nodded.
Bai Hao fell silent again.
Although you've never lied to me, I always felt that you had ill intentions.
Su Yuewan's hand, which was flipping through the prescription, suddenly paused.
ill intentions?
Why would I need to have ill intentions towards you?
It’s so funny!
See, it's not that she disrespects Bai Hao, it's that this little rascal brought this on himself!
I never said a kind word about her in my heart!
However, considering the pill formula, Su Yuewan didn't mind and continued to look through the formulas for the sacred-grade pills.
Only the recipes for high-grade pills are currently appealing to her.
She flipped through each page, and suddenly saw a familiar name—the Barrier-Breaking Pill!
There was even a recipe for the Breakthrough Pill recorded on it, but the recipe was somewhat different from hers.
But what surprised Su Yuewan was not the recipe for the Breakthrough Pill, but the few lines of text beside it...
