Chapter 84: Fifth-Grade Pill Refiner
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
It was normal for a pill that approached the fifth grade in terms of grade to be failed to be refined.
In the eyes of the great elder and the other consecrators, Li Ming’s talent in pill refinement was already very abnormal. At this point, even if he did fail now, they still believed that Li Ming could eventually do it.
After all, the pill was still within the level of fourth-grade medicinal pills.
It simply seemed to them that Li Ming did not yet have enough experience, so it was normal for him to make some mistakes here and there.
However, just as they were comforting Li Ming, he suddenly spoke.
“Although I did not manage to refine a fourth-grade soul concentration pill, I did manage to refine a fifth-grade soul concentration pill. Great elder, I believe that this should be just fine as well, right?”
As soon as Li Ming said this, the entire Consecration Hall instantly fell silent.
Their eyes widened in disbelief as they stared at Li Ming!
“What?”
“A-a… Fifth-grade medicinal pill?”
“You refined a fifth-grade soul concentration pill?”
“Brat, are you really a pill refiner? How did you manage to refine a fifth-grade medicinal pill so quickly?”
“I’ve heard that a fifth-grade pill has a strict requirement for one’s cultivation.
The pill refiner must have at least reached the Golden Core stage!”
“While you are indeed in the late stage of the foundation establishment realm, and are cultivating both your body and qi, it should not be possible for you to have refined a fifth-grade pill, no?!”
All of the consecrators looked at Li Ming in absolute shock. Clearly, they found it hard to believe that he had refined a fifth-grade medicinal pill.
After all, that was a fifth-grade medicinal pill!
It was something that they had never seen before in their entire lives.
In the entire Eastern Province, there was no one who could even refine a fourth-grade medicinal pill, let alone a fifth-grade medicinal pill! Yet this boy before them could actually refine a fifth-grade medicinal pill!
This was simply too shocking!
Under the shocked gazes of the consecrators, Li Ming took out the fifth-grade soul concentration pill.
The great elder took a closer look and immediately took the pill. Looking at the golden crow spirit pattern on the pill, his eyes were filled with utter joy.
A fifth-grade medicinal pill!
It really was a fifth-grade medicinal pill!
Previously, he had already thought that requesting a fourth-grade soul concentration pill from Li Ming was a bit too wishful.
But now, Li Ming had directly taken out a fifth-grade soul concentration pill, far exceeding his expectations.
Li Ming had given him an especially huge surprise!
This was the first time he had seen a fifth-grade medicinal pill despite him already having a nascent soul cultivation!
This matter made the great elder extremely happy.
“There are indeed spirit patterns engraved onto it. This is indeed a fifth-grade pill!”
After confirming it, the great elder felt out the energy contained in the pill in his hand, as well as the lifelike golden crow spirit pattern that was on the pill. The spirit pattern represented the identity of the pill refiner, which in this case was Li Ming.
A fifth-grade medicinal pill was enough to stir up an all-out war between sects in the Eastern Continent!
Hiss!
Hearing the great elder’s words, all the consecrators sucked in a breath of cold air. None of them had expected Li Ming to achieve such a feat! He had actually refined a fifth-grade pill just like that!
This was simply unbelievable!
Since the great elder had personally confirmed it, they naturally had no reason to doubt it.
“Li Ming, I originally thought that you were a peerless genius for managing to cultivate both your body and qi. I did not expect you to have an even more monstrous talent in pill refinement!”
“The sect is truly fortunate to have you!”
“That’s right, with a fifth-grade pill refiner our wing, how could the Divine Will Sect possibly not rise?”
“Do we even still need to worry about the promotion conference?”
At this moment, all the consecrators were filled to the brim with excitement.
They had already been very excited when they found out that Li Ming was a fourth-grade pill refiner, and now he had even become a fifth-grade pill refiner.
This made them even more confident.
Li Ming felt awkwvard when he saw how excited the consecrators were.
He immediately said, “This time, I actually failed two or three times before I managed to successfully refine the soul concentration pill. This fifth-grade soul concentration pill was indeed rather difficult to refine.”
“However, it should be easier once I increase my cultivation level.”
Why does he sound so regretful after only having failed two to three times?
Even if it was another fifth-grade pill refiner, they would not dare guarantee a
hundred percent success rate.
Moreover, could failing two or three times even be considered a failure?
Was that not normal?
Why did they feel as if this kid was showing off to them?
“It is already beyond what is expected of you to have refined such a pill.”
“For now, you should rest well and cultivate well. You can simply refine pills when you have the spare time.”
“The consecrators also need to increase their strength as soon as possible. The sect promotion conference is imminent, and the sect master will be coming out of his seclusion after tomorrow.’
“At that time, Li Ming, come with me to meet him.”
After all, he was a new consecrator and a fifth-grade pill refiner. With such a status, the great elder naturally wanted the sect master to see him.
The future of the Divine Will Sect was decided by the sect master.
Hearing that he would soon meet the sect master, Li Ming became curious about the other party.
The reason why the Divine Will Sect was able to become the number one sect in the Heavenly Southern Region, and why the other sects in the Heavenly Northern Region had been eyeing it covetously for a long time, was naturally because of the foundation of the Divine Will Sect.
But at the same time, the powerful strength that the Divine Will Sect wielded deterred the other sects!
And the person with the greatest strength in the Divine Will Sect naturally had to be the sect master.
The great elder was already at the nascent soul realm, so what about the sect master?
Li Ming was curious, and he yearned to become stronger himself.
To Li Ming, cultivation was what truly interested him.
After receiving the rewards from the consecrators, Li Ming left the Consecration Hall.
These few days of pill refinement had indeed left him with barely any time to cultivate.
After Li Ming returned, he chose to cultivate in seclusion for three days.
He wanted to reach the perfected level of the foundation establishment realm as soon as possible!
However, it was obvious that this was not easy to do.
The gap between the late stage of the foundation establishment realm and the perfected level of the foundation establishment realm was massive. If one wanted to cross that gap, they would need to continuously cultivate and also need an opportunity to make the breakthrough.
For any cultivation stage, as long as a cultivator persisted in daily cultivation and came across an opportunity, they would naturally be able to break through.
As for those who chose to take shortcuts, no matter how many opportunities were given to them, they would not be able to break through.
This was because their foundation would not be solid enough, and they would not meet the conditions required to even breakthrough.
Li Ming continued to temper his body day after day without stopping.
Three years of tempering his body had long since turned the training into a habit.
Even after he reached the foundation establishment realm, Li Ming’s habits had not changed.
He started from the most fundamental of skills to train and temper himself.
Then, he moved on to the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.
As the golden crow true fire erupted on his body, heavenly fire tempered Li Ming’s body.
After cleansing his bone marrows, his physical body could now continue to improve unlike when it had been limited before.
During the three days he trained, Li Ming tempered his body to his heart’s content.
Although he did not feel any imminent breakthrough during this time, this training was particularly beneficial to the consolidation of his new level of cultivation..
