This is a normal Alchemist.
And it is his deliberate doing.
Otherwise, if he had refined them all into perfect-quality second-order lower-tier pills—
It would not take long for him to become a slave solely refining pills.
After refining a sufficient number of second-order lower-tier pills, Su Yu took out the materials for the second-order middle-tier Kaiyuan Pill that he had prepared. Compared to the second-order lower-tier Kaiyuan Pill, the middle-tier pill required materials of higher quality and age, and nearly twice the quantity and variety.
Thus, the difficulty of refining a second-tier middle-tier Kaiyuan pill was quite high for Su Yu, who had only just reached the first layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Three days passed in succession.
Su Yu had failed six times in refining the second-tier middle-tier Kaiyuan Pill. The quality of the pills refined was subpar, rendering them as waste pills.
Once, the Su Family had auctioned a flawed Foundation Establishment Pill in the Yunshan Market, which was politely referred to as a flawed pill, but crudely, it was an unqualified waste pill.
However, such waste pills were not entirely useless, just that they contained excessive impurities and had more pill toxicity.
Some alchemists would sell those waste pills at a cheaper price, but Su Yu would always only dispose of waste pills. He paid great attention to quality.
Five more days passed.
After wasting over ten sets of materials, Su Yu eventually managed to successfully refine the second-order middle-tier Kaiyuan Pill.
The first batch came out as three pills, all of average quality.
A month later, Su Yu could already refine a batch of five exquisite second-tier middle-tier Kaiyuan Pills.
“Next, I need to gather materials for other second-tier middle-tier pills.” Su Yu contemplated about going out.
Li Pingchang had already left Bai Yue Fairy City to explore the market in Bajue Mountain.
Originally, Su Yu planned to head to the Large Moon Black Market after leaving, but when he arrived at the Wutong Dan Pavilion, he found unexpected visitors. Su Yu, surprised, looked at Su Zhi and Luo Qianyu along with the other four. “Sister, Taoist Friend Luo?”
Su Zhi was the earliest to establish the foundation. Now, twenty years later, her cultivation had already reached the third layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Su Zhi, sensing the aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm on Su Yu, showed a happy smile on her face.
Su Zhi sighed, “I was a bit incredulous when I received your letter. I can’t believe you succeeded in foundation establishment so soon.”
“This is great! With your talent in alchemy and success in foundation establishment, you are sure to become a second-tier middle-tier, even a second-tier top-tier Alchemist.” Su Zhi looked at Su Yu and said with expectation.
Su Yu chuckled bitterly, “Sister, you are overrating me. With my low-grade spiritual root talent, it’s already a great fortune to have successfully established my foundation.”
After all, there were outsiders present.
No flattery please, modesty is needed.
Speaking of which, Su Yu looked at Luo Qianyu and the other three women— All seemed to be beauties. Luo Qianyu looked like an ice mountain, than there was a serious and reserved woman who was at the second layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, a coquettish one, and another one who was slightly shorter but had big and round eyes, giving her a hint of cuteness. These two were at the ninth layer of Qi refinement.
A group of female cultivators with different temperaments walking together was a bit strange.
Su Yu hesitated and said to Luo Qianyu, “I wonder, does Taoist Friend Luo have important matters here?”
Luo Qianyu nodded slightly, “I heard you can refine exquisite Foundation
Establishment Pills. I need one. I’ve gathered materials for a Foundation
Establishment Pill. If you can succeed, then I owe you a favor.”
Pausing a moment, Luo Qianyu looked at Su Yu and seriously said, “The Luo family of the Large Moon, also owes you a favor.”
Luo Qianyu then turned her gaze to Ke’er by her side, “This, Ke’er can guarantee on my behalf.”
Su Yu was slightly surprised, as he didn’t know much about the Luo family?
Ke’er messaged him, “My mother is from the Luo family, so I can be considered her sister. However, we have only met a few times. All I know is that she is talented and possesses an Earth Spirit Root. Her status in the Luo family is second only to the Luo family’s ancestor, regardless of the Yunjian Sect.”
“Hmm, the Luo family is a large cultivation family in the Da Yue Palace region. The Luo family’s ancestor used to be an Inner Sect Disciple of the Da Yue Palace and is now a pseudo Pill Realm expert.”
After pondering a bit Ke’er said, “As for why she needs an exquisite Foundation
Establishment Pill, I’m not sure.”
Su Yu questioned through messaging, “Doesn’t your mother possess an exquisite Foundation Establishment Pill? Why—”
Ke’er answered, “I’m not sure about that.”
“But the Luo family is a cultivation family from the Large Moon Palace side. If we want to go to the Large Moon Black Market, it will be advantageous to have good relations with the Luo family.”
Su Yu pondered for a while, looked at Luo Qianyu, and nodded slightly, “In that case, I will refine a batch of Foundation Establishment Pills, but I can’t guarantee that they will turn out to be exquisite.”
Luo Qianyu, with no change in her facial expressions, calmly responded, “No worries, I am grateful for your help, Taoist Friend Su.”
Su Yu accepted a set of materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill from Luo Qianyu, then headed for the Pill Refining Room, activating all formations.
At this moment, Su Yu’s heartbeat slightly quickened as he quietly sucked in a breath of cold air.
“Luo Qianyu’s aura is frightful. What level has she attained? Late stage of Foundation Establishment Realm? She had only broken through a few years ago, yet her strength is increasing so rapidly.” Su Yu thought, amazed. While under Luo Qianyu’s gaze, he had felt a bit of hair-raising nervousness.
The sense of oppression was strong.
“She’s indeed worth of being a prodigy.” Su Yu thought a bit, To refine a batch of Foundation Establishment Pills for her favor and the favor of the Luo Family behind her was an investment worth making..
