Chapter 257 The Strange Alchemist 2



"Is it over?" Xie Qi looked at the void in front of him with a puzzled look on his face. He had been waiting for a long time, but still couldn't accept the plot after the plane was destroyed. This made Xie Qi couldn't help but ask out loud.

However, after hearing Xie Qi's words, 948 said slowly, "Host, I will no longer be able to read the complete plot after the destruction as before. As a result, the difficulty of the task we face will be greatly increased."

"Host, you must identify the true culprit who disrupted the plot and do your utmost to ensure that the entire plot can proceed smoothly along the originally planned trajectory. It is for this reason that the Lord God has specifically opened up all of my permissions to ensure your safety during the mission."

After listening to 948's explanation, Xie Qi nodded thoughtfully, then continued to ask, "Do I still need to use points to redeem props now?"

"No need. All functions of this system will be fully open to you, the host, free of charge."

After all, the points given by the young master are really too many.

However, Xie Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise after hearing this. Then, he slowly stood up, stretched out his arms, and stretched lazily, muttering, "If there is no plot, then there is no plot. Anyway, I can guess that the culprit must be with my wife."

After saying this, Xie Qi slowly walked towards the Iron-hoofed Sheep that had just fallen to the ground. He lowered his head to glance at the dead Iron-hoofed Sheep, then turned to 948 beside him and said, "Give me a knife. Let's eat before we go on our way."

A moment later, 948 handed over a sharp, gleaming knife. Xie Qi took it and, without hesitation, slashed at the iron-hoofed sheep's thigh, instantly slicing off a large, tender, and juicy chunk of meat.

Then, he quickly found some dry branches and built a bonfire, ready to enjoy a delicious barbecue.

However, looking at this strange goat-looking creature in front of him, Xie Qi couldn't help but wonder, "I hope this thing doesn't taste too bad."

After eating, Xie Qi patted his belly contentedly, stood up, tidied his clothes, then identified the direction and walked firmly towards the imperial capital.

As he was walking, Xie Qi suddenly stopped, reached into his arms, and took out the original owner's engagement letter.

The engagement book was a red scroll that looked a bit old, but the material was obviously top-quality brocade. He held the engagement book in his palm, and looked at it carefully for a long time, with a smile in his eyes.

Finally, as if afraid that it would be damaged in the slightest, Xie Qi gently put the engagement letter back into his warm arms like a rare treasure.

After putting away the engagement letter, Xie Qi seemed to have remembered something important. As they walked, he asked 948, "948, do you think I can be promoted to a warrior and take the entrance exam in three months?"

Hearing this, 948 pondered for a moment before answering earnestly, "Host, with the powerful medicinal power of the Boundary Breaking Pill, you may indeed be able to successfully break through your bottleneck within just three months and achieve the transition from a martial artist to a true warrior. However, a Boundary Breaking Pill costs 30,000 Yuan Stones."

"Prime stones? Money?"

"Yes, the trading currency here is Yuanshi."

"All stones? Won't they be exhausted to death if they take so much money at once?"

After hearing this, 948 began to teach Xie Qi about the world.

Yuanshi is not a stone in the traditional sense. If you carry a small amount, you can just put it in a portable bag.

Those who need to carry a large amount of Yuanshi will store the Yuanshi in Yuan Cards. If they want to buy something, they only need to swipe the card to purchase it.

Every local town will have a Yuanxing to store its own Yuanshi. Even if you go to the next town, the Yuanshi in the Yuancard will still exist.

After hearing what 948 said, Xie Qi immediately searched his body, but he couldn't find the so-called Yuan Card. He only found three small Yuan Stones.

"Well, I knew I was still poor. I can't even afford a metacard."

However, Xie Qi was only depressed for a second before he revived with full health and said, "A Boundary Breaking Pill costs 30,000 Yuan Shi. If I become an alchemist, wouldn't I become rich instantly by selling a pill?"

"Host, becoming an alchemist is profitable, but it also burns money."

After hearing 948's words, Xie Qi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sly smile. His eyes, bright as stars, stared at 948 closely, and he spoke slowly: "948, since you have already opened all the permissions, then helping me must be a piece of cake for you."

After saying this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was looking forward to what would happen next.

So, on the way to the imperial capital, 948 collected a large number of essential books on alchemy for Xie Qi.

The book records in detail many alchemy techniques and unique methods, from how to select medicinal materials to controlling the heat, and then to adjusting the proportions of various rare materials. All of them are easy to understand and detailed.

Xie Qi studied these precious texts word by word.

After learning these, Xie Qi began to memorize the formulas of various elixirs. He knew that to become an alchemist, it was not enough to just master the theoretical knowledge; he also had to know the formula of each elixir by heart.

Before he knew it, a month had passed. Xie Qi had read all the books from beginning to end, and the key points were deeply imprinted in his mind.

Besides, Xie Qi was well aware of his weak constitution and lack of physical training, so he also devoted himself to cultivation.

In the forest, Xie Qi was fearless and took the initiative to provoke the dreaded and avoided human-faced mantis. However, in their first encounter, Xie Qi suffered a crushing defeat, but he did not lose heart, instead, he became more and more courageous.

Every fierce duel with the monsters was a huge test of his will and physical strength. Day after day, after countless thrilling life-and-death battles, Xie Qi's body underwent earth-shaking changes.

Today, he is much stronger than before, with clear muscle lines and infinite explosive power.

Not only that, in the long process of fighting with various monsters, Xie Qi also made an amazing discovery. The blood and meat of beasts actually have the magical effect of nourishing cultivation!

From then on, these free monsters became Xie Qi's food.

But what Xie Qi didn't know was that the flesh and blood of the monster contained extremely powerful energy. If it was not carefully processed by a professional bone remover, eating it directly would cause the energy in the body to get out of control and eventually cause the body to explode and die.
