Over The World, Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1067 1067: Successfully Concocted the Pills

After separating from Fan-Chen, Zheng-Fu went to the mission hall to see if there were any missions he could do that did not take a very long time. He wanted a mission that would fit in time for concocting the Soul Level Qi energy-increasing pill.

"Please show me your apothecary badge!"

As soon as Zheng-Fu entered the mission hall, an elder sitting at the table in the middle of the room told Zheng-Fu to show his apothecary badge.

"Here, sir, Elder!" Zheng-Fu was not at all startled by the elder's voice. He took out the apothecary badge and showed it to the elder before putting it away when he saw the elder nod to him.

"You can only accept missions to concoct medicine no more than Excellent Level. If you exceed your level, you'll be responsible if anything happens. So, don't accept tasks that are beyond your abilities," the elder warned Zheng-Fu. Because he had met many people who thought they could do it, but in the end, they failed. Therefore, whether it be the cost or the consequences, they would bear the responsibility themself.

"I know, sir, Elder!" Zheng-Fu understood exactly what the elder wanted to convey. He knew well what he should do. He did not go there because he wanted to show off. But because he only wanted to find a mission to do as a front.

Hah!?

"Elder, why are there two mission boards? How are they different, sir?" But at that moment, Zheng-Fu noticed that there were two mission boards. On one side, a lot of paper was attached to it, which could be a request form. But there were not many on the other side, so he was curious.

"On the mission board to your left are the missions of the request from the members. The other side is the requests from the apothecaries who ask for help in solving their problems. They're most often sent by the Apothecary Association. But you don't have to pay attention to them. Because those are all Soul Level and above medicine recipes. Other than Three-star Apothecary, no one could understand them!" The elder explained. He did not look down on Zheng-Fu as incompetent. But because he was a Three-star Apothecary, he still could not solve those problems.

Umm!

Zheng-Fu nodded and listened in understanding. However, he still wanted to see those request papers. Because those medicinal recipes were Soul Level or higher. Maybe they would be useful to him if he could understand them.

Ten minutes passed...

"Elder, I'd like to choose this mission, sir."

After Zheng-Fu looked over some of the apothecary's request boards, he stopped paying attention and turned to accepting a mission on the board on the other side. The task he chose was a request to concoct Blood Recirculation Pills. This type of medicine was an advanced Excellent Pill. As for its properties, it helped people who took it have better blood circulation. Suitable for those who mainly cultivate blood skills.

"All right! I'll record it for you. And here are the ingredients for concocting. The person who sent the request has prepared two sets for you. No matter how many sets you succeed in, he only needs three Blood Recirculation Pills. As for the rest, you can keep them. But if you don't succeed, you must pay for the ingredients back to the person who made the request. You understand, right?"

"Yes, sir, Elder. I understand," Zheng-Fu clasped his hands to his chest and bowed to the elder. Before he took the ingredients and gave serious acceptance words.

"Good!"

"You have three days to complete it. And if you succeed, then you come to me to confirm and hand over the pills as requested. Now, you can go!" The elder warned Zheng-Fu one last time. So that Zheng-Fu could calculate the time to use it well. Including informing the next steps before the mission ended.

"Yes, sir!"

After Zheng-Fu confirmed the mission, he walked out of the mission hall and immediately headed towards the concocting room area. Because he would not waste that long on this level of medicinal pills.

A few minutes passed, in concocting room number nine...

Upon reaching the concocting room area, Zheng-Fu immediately requested to use the room. And the room he got was room number nine. This room was not very large. Inside the room, there was an apothecary furnace set. And the room was well sealed. Outsiders would not be able to see what was inside, including not being allowed to enter if the room owner did not give permission. Except for the Head and Deputy Head of Ten Thousand Heavenly Medicines Tower only.

"Although this room is well designed, I should take precautions first. Because the medicine I'll concoct might attract attention. By the way, should I use this apothecary furnace?"

Zheng-Fu looked around several times before deciding to draw another spell pattern to seal the room on another layer. He also thought hard about whether he should use the provided apothecary furnace. Looking at its condition, he was afraid that it would affect the pills he would concoct. Because it was both old and a low-grade apothecary furnace. It was completely different from the apothecary furnace set in the testing room where he had gone to test for being an apothecary before.

"Summing it up, I'll use this apothecary furnace set to concoct Blood Recirculation Pill first. Then use my apothecary furnace and cauldron to concoct a Soul Level Qi energy-increasing pill later!"

Zheng-Fu decided to use the apothecary furnace that was available to borrow first. Because there should not be any problem using it to concoct the advanced Excellent Pills. But it probably could not support concocting the Soul Level Pills. Unlike his apothecary furnace, which was developed with Earthly Energy and Heavenly Energy. That made it a three-star or four-star Deity Treasure. And if he used it to concoct Qi energy-increasing pills, it would probably help him a lot.

For Blood Recirculation Pills, the steps were not difficult. And the ingredients used for concocting were not difficult to find. The main ingredients were blood and some internal organs of the monster beast. And used Blood Vessel Plant, an Excellent Level Herb, as a secondary ingredient to make this medicine show its full potential.

Flap!

Fizzzzz!!!

After preparing everything, Zheng-Fu immediately began concocting this kind of medicine. With his medicine concoction ability, Zheng-Fu was able to reduce the time required to concoct the Blood Recirculation Pill by nearly half. Moreover, the amount of medicine obtained had also doubled. According to the recipe, one set of ingredients could concoct a maximum of five pills. But Zheng-Fu could concoct up to ten pills or even more. As for quality, Zheng-Fu's pills might be slightly better.

Half an hour passed...

Booooooom!!!

Finished!

After spending half an hour concocting the Blood Recirculation Pill, Zheng-Fu was finally finished. The results were as Zheng-Fu expected. Not only did he spend less time and obtain more pills, but the quality of this kind of medicine also increased from the advanced level to the ultimate level.

"Twelve pills in total. The person who made the request wants only three pills. Therefore, the remaining nine pills are my profit and compensation for my time. Hmm, this is the advantage of apothecaries. They don't have to venture out to hunt for hard-to-find ingredients. Just sit and wait and cultivate in the concocting room, and they'll have mission scores to use. But probably not every apothecary can do what I can!"

Zheng-Fu smiled and complimented himself without being ashamed of the heaven and earth. He did not know what other people thought. But for himself, he thought like this. Although the profession of apothecary was profitable, he certainly did not intend to be an apothecary forever. Because his life was adventurous. He wanted to see more things. And he had a main goal that must have been achieved.

"Well! It's time to start my own work. I hope no one messes with me!"

After that, Zheng-Fu calmed himself down and stabilized himself, before using his senses to check his surroundings again to see if anyone was outside his concocting room and wanted to come inside. Because concocting the following pills was very important to him. So, he had to make sure.

All clear!

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Zheng-Fu did not hesitate to take out his apothecary furnace from the secret dimensional space. His apothecary furnace was previously yellow, mixed with gold. But now it was all bright gold. And the golden sparks that radiated from it made those who touched it feel indescribably calm. It was as if it were a beam of light from God.

"I never thought that my apothecary furnace and cauldron would change this much. This must be because of the changes that occurred in dimensional space." Zheng-Fu immediately knew why something like this had happened. Because many of his treasures stored within there had all been developed to the next level. But at the same time, some things had not changed at all.

"Come on! With this level of apothecary furnace, concocting the Soul Level pills would not be difficult. Maybe it'll also help increase their quality. However, I only have one set of ingredients. Therefore, I must be very careful and never make any mistakes!" Zheng-Fu shook off those extraneous thoughts before turning his attention and reminding himself again. Because he could not make a mistake in concocting the medicine this time.

Thud!

"First of all, I need to boil some water!"

Fizzzzz!!!

A few minutes later...

Blurp! Blurp! Blurp!

"Then add 0.2 Liang of Heaven Sky Mushroom along with 2 Liang of ground Authentic Qi Glass Leaf Plant and simmer them together!"

Plop! Plop!

Zheng-Fu followed the steps slowly and steadily. It was a process he invented and adapted by himself from an old recipe he had read. The original recipe required simmering Bone Powder Leaf and Sky Grant Stalk first. However, Zheng-Fu cut out the two herbs and replaced them with Scarlet Vine and Earth Dragon Stem. Therefore, the methods and steps had to be changed according to the available ingredients.

Another half hour passed...

"When the two herbs are simmered together, next, I need to add Cloud Green Leaf and Earth Dragon Stem that were ground together and boil for another half hour."

After the first step was finished, Zheng-Fu immediately continued the second step in a hurry. While he was waiting for the first step, Zheng-Fu had already ground the two herbs together. And now there was one more herb that had not been added yet. That was Scarlet Vine. But he had to wait for the first four herbs to mix until they became one. If he put it in right now, everything he had done would be in vain.

Fizzzzz!!!

Flap! Flap! Flap!

At first, Zheng-Fu thought concocting the Soul Level pills would be a simple task. But when he tried to do it himself like this, he realized that it was not as easy as he thought. Not only did he have to concentrate a lot, but he also had to use energy to keep the flames steady at all times.

Another two hours passed...

"Almost finished!"

"It's almost done!"

Booooooom!!!

Floooof!!!

"Succeed!"

Zheng-Fu was finally able to concoct the Soul Level Qi energy-increasing pills. It took him three hours to concoct one set. It was considered neither too fast nor too long for Zheng-Fu. If it were anyone else, it would probably take more than six to seven hours. Not only was the time different, but the scent of the medicinal medicine floating up was also different. Because the scent that floated up from Zheng-Fu's cauldron was many times more fragrant.

Appear now!

Flap!

Blink!
