Taking the pill formula from Su Ling, Lan Yun curiously glanced at it. When she saw it, Lan Yun was instantly astonished.

The Soul Pill! This kind of pill is expensive, and is only suitable for pill refiners whose soul force is lower than that of a third-grade alchemist. "

As the Pavilion Master of the Qingyang City branch of the Misty Pavilion, Lan Yun was naturally familiar with all kinds of pill formulas. The pill formulas that Su Ling gave her were obviously the herbs needed to refine the Spirit Pill.

However, what caused Lan Yun to be shocked was not that Su Ling wanted to refine a Spirit Pill, but rather that the Spirit Pill was a kind of third grade pill.

Although Su Ling had refined a top-grade Yuan Strengthening Pill and was even able to refine a top-grade Body Tempering Pill, these two pills were only second-grade pills. Regardless of the difficulty in refining them or the strength of his soul force, they were far from being comparable to a Soul Tempering Pill.

"Mister Wu Chen, this Spirit Pill is a Tier 3 pill. With your current soul force, it is unlikely for you to refine a Tier 3 pill."

Upon hearing that Su Ling intended to refine a Spirit Pill, Old Leng, who was standing beside him, was instantly shocked and hurriedly tried to persuade him.

Old Leng knew that Su Ling was very talented in alchemy, and Su Ling also had a very strong control over his soul, but Su Ling's soul force was only at the first grade. Previously, when Su Ling was able to refine a second grade pill, it had already surprised Old Leng.

"..." Who said that I would always be the one to refine the pills? "You're right, with my soul force that has just reached the first grade, refining a Spirit Pill is simply a fantasy. Thus, I plan on letting Elder Leng refine it for me."

Su Ling instantly turned his gaze towards Old Leng. He could not help but narrow his eyes as he said in a deep voice, "Old Leng's soul force is at the third grade. If Old Leng is allowed to help me, wouldn't this Soul Pill be able to be refined?"

"This …"

Elder Leng immediately hesitated, but he knew that this was not the time to hide anything, so he directly said: "Mister Wu Chen, although your soul force is only at the first stage, but your soul perception is indeed very strong. I think you should know that with my current strength, wanting to successfully refine a Spirit Pill with 100% success is almost impossible."

"Yes."

Hearing Old Leng's words, Su Ling slightly nodded his head and said: "It doesn't matter whether I succeed or not, I will guide you from the side."

If it was any other alchemist who had just reached the first level of soul force and dared to say such words to Elder Leng, Elder Leng would probably be angered on the spot.

After all, a high tier apothecary was reduced to being guided by a low tier apothecary. This was an insult to a high tier apothecary.

However, the one who said those words to Old Leng was Su Ling. This not only did it make Old Leng not angry, but he was also very happy in his heart.

Su Ling had just reached the first rank, yet he was able to concoct a second rank pill, and a top rank pill at that. This had already made Old Man Leng have a whole new level of respect for Su Ling.

However, according to Old Leng's understanding, Su Ling was able to refine top quality pills every single time. This was enough to show that Su Ling had the confidence to refine top quality pills, and it also proved that Su Ling's understanding to concocting pills had long surpassed that of a second tier alchemist. In fact, it could even be said that he had surpassed a third tier alchemist.

Even though Elder Leng possessed the grade-3 apothecary emblem given by the Apothecary Guild, he knew that it was impossible for him to forge a grade-3 pill with his current strength. Otherwise, he would have already become a grade-4 apothecary.

"This time, with Su Ling's guidance, perhaps I can concoct a third rank pill with 100% success rate. This will help me improve my understanding of concocting a third rank pill."

He looked at Lan Yun and said, "Pavilion Master Lan, please fetch the medicinal ingredients. Mister Wu Chen will be by my side to guide me in the refinement of the pill. I will help Mister Wu Chen refine a Grade 3 pill."

"Alright!"

Since Elder Leng has already promised Su Ling, Lan Yun no longer hesitated and directly sent people to obtain the elixir formula to refine the elixir elixir.

There were a total of ten portions of medicinal ingredients needed to refine the Spirit Pill. The cost of refining the Spirit Pill was 20,000 high-grade mystical crystals by Su Ling. This made Su Ling feel a little heartache.

Su Ling took ten batches of herbs and followed behind Old Leng into the alchemy lab. Lin Ling'er and Lan Yun followed him into the alchemy lab.

"During the process of refining a pill, one must remain quiet. I don't want to hear anything but me talking to you. "

Upon entering the alchemy room, Su Ling acted as if she was a completely different person. Her expression was extremely serious, without even a hint of emotion on her face as she said in a deep voice.

This was already his bottom line. If Lin Ling'er and Lan Yun dared to disturb his alchemy, he would definitely directly kick them out of the alchemy room. After all, refining a Spirit Pill was extremely important to him this time.

"Elder Leng, no matter what happens during the process of refining a medicinal pill, I request that you follow my instructions strictly."

Standing beside Old Leng, Su Ling said in a serious tone with an expressionless face.

"Alright!"

Seeing Su Ling being so serious, Elder Leng was shocked. However, this should be the state of an alchemist.

Pill forging was a process that required one to focus all of their attention. If one was not careful, it could cause all the previous efforts to go to waste and they might even fail the pill forging process.

At this moment, Su Ling was at the stage where a pill refiner should be able to wholeheartedly refine pills.

"Fire!"

Once he entered the pill refining state, Su Ling would be able to maintain a high degree of concentration. This was something that Su Ling learned while refining pills in his previous life.

Old Leng stood in front of the furnace, slowly extending his right hand. Traces of mystical Qi could be seen on his fingertips.

Boom!

Along with the flow of his mystical Qi, a flame immediately appeared beneath the cauldron and started burning furiously.

Under the scorching heat of the flames, the livid pill furnace gradually turned into a magma red.

"Place the Red Illusion Grass, Jade Spirit Root, Heavenly Mountain Flower, and Morning Dew into the cauldron. "Pay attention to the temperature of the furnace, you must control it well, and do not let the furnace have any changes."

As he said the last sentence, Su Ling deliberately emphasized on his tone. He was very clear that during the process of refining, many alchemists would ignore the issue of the temperature dropping, which directly caused the quality of the pills refined by alchemists to be very poor.

As a peak Grade Nine Alchemist in his previous life, Su Ling had experienced numerous failures. Thus, he understood the mistakes that low tier alchemists would make.

If an apothecary was unable to even control the temperature of the furnace, then it was impossible for this apothecary to forge such a top-grade pill.

"Thank you for your guidance, Mister Wu Chen."

When Su Ling mentioned the problem of controlling the temperature of the pill furnace, he had never paid any attention to it. Whether the temperature of the furnace remained constant was entirely due to his luck. Only now did he understand why he often failed to concoct pills in the past.

"Keep your attention focused!"

Seeing that Old Leng was distracted, Su Ling was a little angry as he said in a deep voice.
