In addition to fighting openly and secretly with others, he also had to manage the alchemy workshop, plus the assigned alchemy tasks, all of which were extremely energy-consuming and would inevitably delay his cultivation. This was the main reason why Zhou Yang did not want to come to the Alchemy Palace.
But there was no other way. After being forcibly transferred by Madman Chu, he had to adapt to everything in the Alchemy Palace.
At this time, what Zhou Yang was holding in his hand was a task list, requiring the 19th Branch Hall to provide 12,000 pills within half a month.
Among them, there are twenty types of eighth-grade ones, totaling 11,880 pieces, and two types of ninth-grade ones, totaling one hundred and twenty pieces.
In the hands of a skilled alchemist, several eighth-grade elixirs can be produced in one furnace. When refining the ninth-grade elixir, even a quasi-alchemy master who is skilled in alchemy can only produce one elixir per furnace.
As for the task assigned to Jushu, there is a total of forty ninth-grade elixirs, an average of a little more than two and a half per day. This task is very heavy.
There are not many types of ninth-grade elixirs. The Nineteenth Branch Hall can currently only refine two types, while Jushu can only refine one type. Another Quasi-Alchemy Patriarch named Chong can do both. Refining.
Although the quasi-Alchemy Patriarch has the word "Founder", he is still far from the real Alchemy Patriarch. Whether it is a ninth-grade primary or high-level spiritual elixir, the gap between it and a tenth-grade divine elixir is huge. Maybe it is poor. It cannot be refined in a lifetime.
Therefore, the founder of quasi-alchemy is still called the great master.
Grand Master Chongle was also in the quasi-god realm, and was more accomplished in alchemy than Jushu. He was supposed to be the deacon of the alchemy workshop, but he didn't like power and loved alchemy, so he ended up taking advantage of Jushu.
Among the alchemists in the 19th Branch Hall, there are many who are in the quasi-celestial realm, but there are only three who have reached the quasi-alchemy master level, including Zhou Yang.
Therefore, Zhou Yang and Chong Le need to complete another type of nine-grade elixirs totaling eighty, each of which is also forty, which is the same amount as the Jujutsu task.
In the following days, in order to complete the task as soon as possible, Zhou Yang had to order people to urge Jushu to get into the state quickly.
There are only three quasi-alchemy ancestors in the alchemy workshop, and they have two kinds of 120 ninth-grade elixirs. It can be said that time is tight and the tasks are heavy, and they are all expected to take action.
This is a task assigned by the superiors, and Jushu dare not disobey it.
Zhou Yang himself also began to refine the ninth-grade primary elixir.
This kind of moisturizing elixir can help the powerful gods to calm down and stabilize their mind. It is a ninth-grade elixir that assists in retreat practice.
This elixir does not require the essence and blood of the elixir beast to increase its medicinal properties. It is relatively mild and gentle, so it is called the elixir of nourishment and harmony.
The two auxiliary alchemists sent all the materials into Zhou Yang's unique alchemy room, then stood with their hands down, waiting quietly for Zhou Yang to start the furnace.
However, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he carefully considered the recipe, carefully analyzed the pharmacological effects of each material, and further studied every step of the refining process. He only started refining it after he was fully aware of it.
The alchemy furnace is the best here, the flame is also the highest level here, and the assistant is naturally the best. However, Zhou Yang, the quasi-alchemy master, is only a newcomer to this realm and has only refined a ninth-grade spirit. There is only one pill, and the realm is not yet stable.
Therefore, he needs to successfully refine the second ninth-grade elixir before he can be considered a true quasi-alchemy master.
It is a pity that the ninth-grade God Control Pill that was previously refined does not belong to the tasks of the 19th Branch Hall. He currently only has the pill recipe and no materials. Otherwise, you can refine this elixir first to familiarize yourself with the entire refining process of the ninth-grade elixir.
Adjusting the state, inputting materials, and controlling the flame, Zhou Yang devoted himself wholeheartedly to the great cause of alchemy.
Zhou Yang did not let Mu Zifeng guide him, he had to complete the entire refining process by himself.
But the reality is cruel, failure, failure, failure.
Nine times in a row, although Zhou Yang took a large amount of elixirs to restore the power of his soul, they all ended in failure, and he never had the good luck he had when refining the wind-controlling elixir.
The two assistants cleaned the alchemy furnace again and again, sorted out the alchemy materials again and again, and wrote down every link explained by Zhou Yang. It seemed that there was no trouble in the ancient well, but in their hearts they kept complaining about the dignified deacon of the alchemy workshop. , wasted so many precious materials, and failed nine times. It seems that he is really not as good as the giant butler.
Zhou Yang waved his hand and asked the two of them to leave the alchemy secret room, and then fell into deep thought.
What he didn't know was that just a moment later, the news that he had failed nine times in a row had spread throughout the 19th Branch Hall, and even some people in the Alchemy Hall headquarters knew about it.
"Child Qi Bin, he was just a fake. Now he has finally shown his true form!" Ju Shu, who returned to the 19th Branch Hall, naturally heard the news and couldn't help but laugh heartily.
Not long after, another news came out in the 19th branch hall. Jushu had successfully refined two ninth-grade elixirs in a short period of time. This was in sharp contrast to Qi Bin's incompetence.
"Haha, Crazy Chu really made a mistake this time!" Someone in the Hall of Mortal Instruments began to laugh at Crazy Chu.
Of course, they are all characters of the same level.
"This is not the first time that Madman Chu has done crazy things, so there is no need to make a fuss." Another person said.
"It's a pity that Jushu was replaced by an impostor. It's a bit unfair to him." There were also people who complained about Jushu's injustice.
Even the deacon of Chuan Gong Hall couldn't help shaking his head when he came, secretly laughing at Madman Chu.
In the headquarters of the Alchemy Palace, Crazy Chu’s secret room, he seemed to be in trance, but in fact he was extremely uneasy in his heart.
"It shouldn't be. If you reach the level of the quasi-alchemy master and refine the Runhe Divine Pill, you have to maintain at least a 35% pill yield rate. However, he failed nine times in a row. What kind of quasi-dan is this?" Master Dao, you are just a fake!"
"What should we do, withdraw the appointment? It's absolutely impossible. We've already reported it to the elder in charge and learned about it. If we withdraw the appointment, wouldn't we be slapping ourselves in the face!"
He suddenly opened his eyes, and two electric gazes penetrated the wall of the secret room, crossed the starry sky, and plunged directly into the 19th branch of the Alchemy Workshop.
This is the secret technique of the divine eye that he has cultivated. It can penetrate the god-level formations and look directly at the true nature.
"Huh?" The next moment, Crazy Chu couldn't help but be stunned.
At this time, Qi Bin, the founder of Quasi-Alchemy Dao, had returned to his prime and was once again engaged in refining.
"The steps are correct, the heat is correct, and although the refining technique is a little unfamiliar, there is nothing wrong with it. But why do I feel that there is anything different?" Madman Chu focused his consciousness to watch, fearing that he would miss every detail.
"This kid comes from the star field below. It's understandable that his refining techniques are rough, but why do some of his techniques look so different from those of ordinary alchemists?"
"It's step seven!"
Unconsciously, Qi Bin's refining process has reached the most critical step.
"10%, 20%, 40%... 80% of the elixir!"
