C10 Pharmacy drug preparation

After registering at the refining pharmacy Registry, Murong Xue and Lin Tian started to purchase medicinal ingredients.

In addition to having rooms for students to refine medicine, there were also herbs for sale. The price was only slightly more expensive than the market price. Therefore, many students only chose to buy herbs after coming to the Alchemy Department.

Lin Tian was initially worried that the herbs would be sold soon, so he decided to go shopping. With Xia Lu's 1000 gold coins, his family was considered rich.

"Lin Tian, have you refined your own pills yet?" Walking into the refining pharmacy, Murong Xue turned to ask Lin Tian who was behind her.

"Yes, I've refined it a few times already. I can probably refine all the basic level pills, but I only have three recipes. Other than Qi Returning Pill, the rest are basically useless, so I'm more proficient at refining Qi Returning Pill."

Indeed, other than the Qi Returning Pill's effect being a little better, Lin Tian only had the Blood Coagulation Pill, Spirit Concentrating Powder and a few other medicine formulas that were not very useful to him.

"Amazing, I've never made one before, so you have to teach me."

Murong Xue excitedly said. When Murong Xue was young, she had seen her family's elders concoct pills, but she wasn't as happy as she was now. She didn't know why, perhaps it was because she was the same age, but was it really so? Murong Xue didn't know either.

"Then let me refine a Qi Returning Pill for you to see. Take a good look."

As Lin Tian said this, he took out the Raging Inferno Cauldron from his storage ring, and then, he took out the medicinal ingredients needed to refine the Qi Returning Pill. When Lin Tian's juvenile fire appeared, Murong Xue was completely surprised. From afar, the flame looked like a star emitting a ghostly light, and it felt cold. However, when he used her soul power to check, he discovered that it contained a berserk heat.

"What kind of fire is this?" Murong Xue inwardly underestimated her, but she didn't ask.

Seeing that Lin Tian had actually thrown all of the medicinal ingredients into the medicine cauldron and skillfully split the flames to completely wrap them up, Murong Xue was a little flabbergasted. Her control of this technique was extremely proficient and accurate, comparable to those old fellows in the clan, and even though the pill that she had refined was only a grade-1 pellet.

"Come on."

Lin Tian softly shouted as the jade bottle appeared out of nowhere. The Qi Returning Pill that was just refined flew into the bottle as well, and's refining process was completed under Murong Xue's surprise, as the speed at which she was refining the Qi Returning Pill had increased from the initial half an hour to eight minutes. This speed was even faster than her father's, Lin Zhan.

"How is it? Did you see it clearly?" "You should also know the steps and precautions to refine medicine, so you should start refining now. I will be watching you from the side, so you can do it!" Lin Tian stood up and said to Murong Xue.

"Yes."

Murong Xue also took out a medicinal cauldron. Murong Xue's medicinal cauldron also had two pieces, it was dark red in color, and the cauldron had a phoenix design on it. With one look, one could tell that it was much higher ranked than Lin Tian's fire.

He then took out the medicinal ingredients and placed one hand on the fire outlet. The red flame quickly entered the medicine cauldron and Murong Xue threw a medicinal ingredient into it before slowly refining it.

After ten minutes, Murong Xue finally finished refining all the medicinal herbs and started to fuse with the medicinal essence. When she finished refining the medicinal ingredients, she did not take out several jade bottles and put them in like how Lin Tian did for the first time. Instead, she wrapped them in flames and moved them to the side of the medicine cauldron.

Lin Tian could not help but think to himself, "Genius" when he had such precise control over the ingredients during his first refining. He did not know that Murong Xue had thought to herself, "He's better than me at refining all the ingredients. What a genius."

Just like that, the two of them were both admiring each other's abilities.

The prototype of the pill within the cauldron gradually became round, and the surroundings started emitting a faint fragrance. Clearly, this was the prelude to the formation of the pill. A few minutes later, Murong Xue took out a jade bottle and placed the pill into it. Then, she put away the fire, wiped the sweat off her forehead and slowly stood up.

"Is this really your first time concocting pills?" Lin Tian exclaimed.

"Yes, in the past, I've always watched seniors refine pills, and this is the first time I've ever done so. I never thought that I would be able to do so." Seeing Lin Tian's surprise, Murong Xue smiled and said. She quite liked his surprised expression.

"This is really infuriating. My face was black from the explosion the first time I refined it. That look is hilarious. Take a rest, and we'll do it together." Lin Tian said gloomily.

"Oh?" "Okay." Murong Xue imagined what Lin Tian must have been like at that time, then smiled.

"What are you going to make later?" Murong Xue suddenly asked.

"It's a Qi Returning Pill after all. I only have this pill, and it's quite useful." Lin Tian replied, he planned on using the splitting technique to refine Qi Returning Pill, as this would be faster.

"Don't you want to try something new?" "Only then will there be a challenge. Hehe, I have a few prescriptions here, give it a try."

Ordinary alchemists would not be willing to give their own formulas to others. Each prescription was a valuable asset that the alchemist had acquired after many experiments, so if there were special circumstances, they would usually be able to collect them by themselves. Only academies and clans would be able to share some of the medicinal pills, but only a few, not all of them.

Murong Xue's pill formulas were all given to her by her family, with some being at the peak of Rank 1 to Rank 2 pills. Although she knew how precious the pill formulas were, she still wanted to share it with Lin Tian.

"Well, all right, thank you." Lin Tian thought for a while and still decided to learn a new medicine formula. After all, he might not have this opportunity in the future.

Seeing that Murong Xue had taken out all of the formulas, Lin Tian's eyes lit up. "Good boy, I only have two or three formulas, this is way too incomparable." Lin Tian quickly flipped through the prescription. Although he was unable to refine some of them now, he would first write them down for future refining. Murong Xue quietly looked at Lin Tian with a look of infatuation in his eyes.

After half an hour, Lin Tian finally memorized all of Murong Xue's prescriptions, and Murong Xue had a good rest as well. The two of them started to concoct pills at the same time, Lin Tian only brought along the ingredients needed to refine Qi Returning Pill, thus he also made Qi Returning Pill like Murong Xue, only that he made two Qi Returning Pill pills.

Inside refining pharmacy, two different flames, one red and one silver, were burning within the medicinal cauldron, continuously refining the medicinal ingredients within. Aside from the occasional crackling sound, there was no other sound.

"We'll all come together when we have time, you can look for me." The two alchemists who had entered the Alchemy Department knocked on the door to remind everyone before they walked out of the pharmacy. Only now did they realize that it was already dark.

"Okay, I'll take you back first." Lin Tian replied with a smile.

"Yes."
