Chapter 1170: The Wind Is Blowing

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Qi-replenishing Pills were only the size of a fingernail. They were white in color and emitted a faint fragrance.

Salvia Miltiorrhiza Herb, July Flower.

Ou Yangming recalled the records in the Spiritual Medicines Manual. These 2 low-level spiritual medicines were the materials used to refine Qi-replenishing Pills.

“Should I give it a try?” Ou Yangming was moved.

These 2 spiritual medicines existed on the Spiritual Medicines Mountain that he was in charge of. There were many spiritual medicines here. Even if a few hundred of them were missing, no one would notice. Moreover, he was not a rookie who had never refined a medicinal pill before. Now that he had the conditions, he might as well give it a try.

Ou Yangming acted right away. After picking the spiritual herbs from the mountain, he returned to his small house.

The young fellow did not use the Earth’s Demolition Cauldron. The Qi-replenishing Pill was only the lowest level medicinal pill in the Great Wide World. Using the cauldron would be too much of a waste.

He took out a pill furnace that had been sealed for a long time in the Long Feather Band. It was only at the level of a Common Grade magic treasure, and it was refined by him when he was in the lower realm.

The level of the pill furnace was not high, but it was more than enough to refine Qi-replenishing Pills.

Ou Yangming put the 2 spiritual medicines into the pill furnace. With a slight movement of his fingers, purple flames emerged from his fingertips.

The pill furnace was scarlet red, and the temperature quickly rose. The 2 spiritual medicines melted into spiritual liquid almost instantly. Ou Yangming carefully gathered them.

In a moment, 3 grey pills appeared in the pill furnace. They were very different from the Qi-replenishing Pills he was given, and even the color was not the same.

Ou Yangming took one out of the pill furnace and lightly pinched it in his hand. The grey pill immediately turned into dust, and there was a burnt smell.

“Failed.”

This was not out of Ou Yangming’s expectations. Even though the Qi-replenishing Pill was the lowest level pill, it was impossible to refine it on the first try.

‘I won’t be able to learn alchemy skills by myself. Looks like I’ll still have to secretly learn a few moves,’ Ou Yangming thought to himself.

The Mystic Sky Sect was the top sect of the Humans. Nevertheless, there were no experts in the outer sect. Even Meng Chenghe and Steward Mo were only top-grade Venerable Ones. Ou Yangming had nothing to worry about.

As for the ruler of the Mystic Sky Sect, he was in the depths of the mountains. As long as Ou Yangming did not go there for the time being, he would not be in danger of being exposed.

Taking advantage of the night, Ou Yangming went out.

The Pill Refinement Department was not far away. In less than 15 minutes, he arrived there. After easily avoiding the others, he followed the fragrance of pills and found the residence of an alchemist.

An alchemist had the highest position in the outer sect. Even stewards would not dare to offend one.

All the pill supplies for the outer sect disciples were provided by these alchemists. It was very tiring, and they usually worked overtime.

Ou Yangming was just outside. With a flash of thought, the scene inside the pill refinement room appeared in his eyes.

A raging fire was burning under the pill furnace. The alchemist was a middle-aged man with a handlebar mustache. His expression was cold as he sat upright next to the furnace.

In the pill refinement room, there were 2 young outer sect disciples who were busy. The outer sect disciples were not as relaxed as the alchemist. Not only did they need to sort out the spiritual herbs and send them over, but they also needed to add dry wood to the bottom of the pill furnace.

Alchemists would not use spiritual fires to refine Qi-replenishing Pills because too many of those pills had to be refined. If they used spiritual fires, they would probably be exhausted to death.

The wood used was also very special as they were burned by exuberant flames. They were sent over by the outer sect disciples from other branches, so they were more durable than other wood.

Ou Yangming also knew the 2 busy young men. They were the Bai family’s brothers, who had been taught a lesson by him during the day.

Seeing how busy they were, Ou Yangming secretly laughed. Fortunately, he did not choose to come here. If he were to work for a person who was only a Venerable One in the middle stage, he would be depressed to death.

After a while, the flames in the furnace gradually extinguished. Only then did the alchemist stand up. He opened the bronze lid of the furnace. Inside were dozens of round white pills.

A furnace full of Qi-replenishing Pills. It was normal that there were dozens of them. The middle-aged alchemist with a handlebar mustache reached out and picked out a few of the bad-looking ones and threw them at the 2 brothers.

The 2 brothers were not paying attention, so the pills fell to the ground. They hurriedly picked them up and stuffed them into their pockets.

“Thank you, Alchemist Master.”

The Bai family’s brothers had flattering looks on their faces. Their servile manners were in stark contrast to their arrogance during the day.

Ou Yangming sighed and thought, ‘They’re simply the most qualified lackeys.’

The alchemist walked to the side, and the 2 brothers rushed to the side of the pill furnace. They took out porcelain bottles from their interspatial bags and placed 3 pills in each bottle.

How many outer sect disciples were there in the Mystic Sky Sect?

Unless one was an outer sect elder, one would not know the exact number. That was because there were simply too many of them. Out of the 300,000 over mountains, there were close to 100,000 mountains that had outer sect disciples.

The Alchemy School, the Sword School, the Formation School, the Rune School, the Saber School…

Under each of those branches, there were plenty of outer sect disciples as the foundation. The alchemist and the brothers were probably responsible for the outer sect disciples under the Alchemy School. Even so, there were probably tens of thousands of them.

They had been doing this for half a month. The 2 brothers moved quickly, and the dozens of medicinal pills were packed up in a moment. The flames in the pill furnace lit up again, and the refinement of the next batch of medicinal pills had begun.

Ou Yangming focused this time. He had arrived late earlier, so he could not see how the alchemist had refined the pills. This time, he could not miss it.

The alchemist placed the sorted Salvia Miltiorrhiza Herb and the July Flowers into the pill furnace, and his hands continuously made gestures.

“I see…”

Ou Yangming saw the alchemist’s actions and understood. He had found the problem from before.

The alchemist was still carefully controlling the flames.

After an hour, thick smoke rose from the top of the furnace, and the flames below went out again.

Dozens of Qi-replenishing pills came out of the furnace again.

Opening the furnace, the alchemist frowned slightly. A hint of fatigue flashed across his face. In the furnace, other than the white pills, there were also a few black dregs. They were the products of the failed Qi-replenishing Pills.

After picking out the black pills and throwing them away, the alchemist said, “Let’s call it a day. You can go and rest after you pack up these pills.”

The 2 brothers put the pills into the porcelain bottles again. The alchemist had a record of every pill that came out of the furnace in his heart, so the 2 brothers did not dare to act recklessly. If they were found out, the price would not be something they could bear.

After the 2 brothers packed up, they did not leave right away. After hesitating for a while, Bai Chi called out, “Alchemist Master.”

“Is there anything else?”

The middle-aged man with the handlebar mustache turned his head impatiently.

Bai Chi suddenly knelt on the ground and cried out loudly, “Alchemist Master, you must stand up for us!”

The alchemist’s gaze was gloomy as he asked, “What’s the matter?”

These 2 fellows did not look very good, but they liked to flatter others. They had been conscientious for half a month. The alchemist had been flattered by them and had a very good impression of them. Now that he saw them like this, he thought that something big had happened.

Bai Chi wiped away his tears and explained, “Alchemist Master, today, we helped you deliver the medicinal pills to the outer sect disciples. In the beginning, it was fine and there were no accidents. In the end, when we arrived at a Spiritual Medicines Mountain, an outer sect disciple complained that the quality of the medicinal pills was too poor and insulted us.”

“There was such a thing? Where did that outer sect disciple get his courage from?” The alchemist’s face turned ashen. Being an alchemist, it was taboo for others to say that his medicinal pills were not good. It was one thing for his personal disciple or an elder to say something like that, but how could an outer sect disciple be so bold?

Bai Chi continued, “Alchemist Master, that outer sect disciple actually has a grudge against us brothers. He was targeting us, so he didn’t intentionally target you. However, we couldn’t tolerate him insulting you, Alchemist Master, so we argued with him. Who knew, that fella was so audacious that he injured both of us.”

The alchemist asked in surprise, “The 2 of you couldn’t beat him?”

These 2 helpers of his seemed to have some foundations. They were even Intermediate Spiritualists, which was considered quite good. From what he could tell, the other party seemed to be only a new outer sect disciple. It was surprising that the brothers had lost so miserably.

“That fella’s very fast, and we didn’t expect him to make a move, so we didn’t have the time to defend ourselves and were injured by him.” Bai Chi lowered his head and rolled his eyes a few times.

“What’s the name of that outer sect disciple?” The alchemist asked.

“His name is Ou Yangming. Alchemist Master, you must stand up for us.”

“Okay, I got it.”

The alchemist with a handlebar mustache waved his hand. “Go back first. Since you work under me, I won’t let you suffer.”

“Thank you, Alchemist Master.” The 2 brothers then left and walked out of the gate. They looked at each other and thought, ‘That b*stard definitely can’t escape.’

Just as the 2 of them were feeling smug, they suddenly felt a cold wind blow over them.

“What’s going on? Why is the wind blowing all of a sudden?”

Bai He muttered to himself. At the spur of the moment, he noticed that his big brother had walked in front of him.

“Big Brother, what are you doing?” Bai He asked.

That said, what greeted him was a loud slap.

“Slap!”

The sound was loud and ear-piercing under the night sky.

“Big Brother, how could you hit me!” Bai He covered the right side of his face and was furious. He respected his big brother, but he could not tolerate him beating him up.

“Slap!”

Bai He returned the slap. After this slap, he felt that his consciousness slowly blurred, leaving only his instinctive actions.

Slapping sounds echoed under the night sky. Fortunately, no one passed by. Otherwise, they would have thought that these 2 guys had gone crazy.

After beating each other for an hour, the sides of their faces were swollen, and their slaps were weak.

Subsequently, the 2 of them stopped at the same time.

They took out the porcelain bottles that had just been filled with medicinal pills.

“Crack!”

The bottles fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. The white pills inside rolled in the mud and were stained gray.

At this time, the brothers became more energetic. It was as if they were competing. In the blink of an eye, the bottles were shattered all over the ground.

The Qi-replenishing Pills rolled everywhere. Some were covered in mud, and some were even trampled flat by them. The scene was a complete mess.

Finally, the noise caught the attention of the alchemist with a handlebar mustache. He frowned, pushed open the door, and walked out.

After seeing the scene outside, his eyes were wide open. He could not catch his breath and nearly fainted.

The result of his hard work for a day and a night….
