Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 501: Chapter 254: Disciple, It’s Time for School! (Part 3)

”Tsk tsk, refining it once requires two Second Tier Spirit Plants as the main ingredient and ten First Tier Spirit Plants as supplementary materials. It costs over two thousand Spirit Stones! I only bought two sets of materials this time...”

Chen Ye clicked his tongue in surprise. Even though he had assets worth twenty thousand Spirit Stones, he couldn’t help but feel the pinch.

This price can’t be compared to the Qi Nourishing Pill!

After all, the Second Tier Spirit Plant’s price is worlds apart from the First Tier Lower Grade Silver Scale Grass.

In the outside world, a single Lower Grade Purple Sun Pill can fetch a price of five hundred Spirit Stones! Moreover, it is considered a strategic-level resource, available in name only!

With this in mind, Chen Ye realized the generosity of the top Steward treatment. His monthly salary included three Purple Sun Pills!

Considering the cost of the medicinal materials, Chen Ye was particularly cautious.

A single batch of pills took him the better part of the night to refine!

Time ticked by slowly.

The aroma of the medicine in the Pill Furnace grew increasingly rich, evolving from its initial cacophony into something pure and potent.

”Collect the pills!”

Chen Ye’s eyes brightened with a gleam as he tapped the Pill Furnace suddenly!

The lid shot skyward, and six completely purple-red pills, the size of a longan, spun out and landed in the jade bottle he had prepared in advance.

[Purple Sun Pill Minor Achievement: 22/100]

”It’s done!”

Chen Ye exhaled deeply, a look of delight on his face.

To achieve six pills on his first attempt at refining the Purple Sun Pill, albeit Lower Grade, would be enough to create quite a stir on Danxia Peak.

One must know that Alchemy consumes the most Spirit Stones.

A common Loose Cultivator may be okay making some Rejuvenation Pills or Qi Nourishing Pills, as these don’t require too many Spirit Stones.

But to refine all sorts of expensive and rare pills, the amount of Spirit Stones required is vast!

”Although I don’t need the Qi Nourishing Pill anymore, the skill wasn’t practiced in vain... My technique and understanding of the Alchemy Dao have both genuinely improved.”

Chen Ye wiped his sweat; he couldn’t afford to be anxious. If he failed to refine them, he would have lost more than two thousand Spirit Stones.

The six Purple Sun Pills, even after accounting for all sorts of losses, didn’t earn him Spirit Stones, but at least he didn’t lose any.

He poured out a Purple Sun Pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

”Sizzle—”

As the pill entered his stomach, it was like a blazing sun bursting open, and tremendous heat surged from his Dantian to his limbs.

In an instant,

Chen Ye’s forehead steamed as if with sweat!

He immediately operated his Evergreen Technique, guiding this immense heat to circulate repeatedly within his body, transforming it into his Cultivation.

An hour later, the medicinal power was completely refined.

Chen Ye opened his eyes, sensing the increase in Cultivation within him, and he felt a surge of confidence.

This Purple Sun Pill certainly lived up to its reputation!

[Evergreen Technique (Great Success): 62/200]

[Changqing Technique (Tongxuan): 480/6400]

One Purple Sun Pill increased the Evergreen Technique by twenty points, while the Changqing Technique increased by three hundred points!

”Which means, taking one pill per day, the Evergreen Technique will reach Perfection in just seven days. As for the Changqing Technique, it will require twenty days!”

With such a pill to aid him, how could his Cultivation not progress?

Chen Ye was elated, carefully storing the remaining pills, and rose to his feet.

He gazed out of the window.

As the sky began to lighten, Luoli Courtyard remained dark, and he could vaguely make out a silhouette hobbling along.

She walked with difficulty, taking almost one small step at a time.

”Is that... Jin’er? After many treatments, though her leg ailment has improved, she still isn’t quite used to it. She spent her whole day indoors; I thought she wouldn’t step out. Unexpectedly, she adapted to her legs so early in the morning... It shows she truly cares about her leg ailment deep down.”

Chen Ye’s eyesight was remarkable. Even in the dim light, he could clearly see the girl’s face.

The girl appeared frail, wearing thin clothes, with ribs faintly visible. It seemed she only dared come out to exercise this early, assuming no one would be around in the courtyard, thus dressed casually.

Especially those legs, were slender and weak, trembling as they moved forward.

But this child is truly thin. While Zhiwei had a normal slender figure, Jin’er was thin to the point of being unhealthily pale...
