Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

Upon seeing the words "Spirit Liquid Pill," Chu Yunfan felt a surge of excitement.

Because the Spirit Liquid Pill is used to enhance the cultivation level of cultivators at the Martial Grandmaster level, it is one of the common types of pills.

Therefore, he studied the method of refining this elixir.

After taking a deep breath, Chu Yunfan calmed his excited emotions and then began to select the spiritual herbs he needed.

Chu Yunfan was as fluent as ever when selecting the medicinal herbs.

However, when it came time to extract the medicinal power, Chu Yunfan was much more cautious than in the previous two times he refined pills, and his speed was noticeably slower.

It's normal that the extraction of medicinal power from third-tier spiritual herbs is slower because it's more difficult.

However, this detail was immediately noticed by Yu Zhicheng on the assessment platform, and a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.

As for the others, they stared intently at Chu Yunfan's alchemy movements, their faces full of anticipation, as if witnessing the birth of a miracle.

If before they were still discouraged by Chu Yunfan's talent in alchemy, their hearts were filled with envy, jealousy, hatred, and endless inferiority.

However, when they discovered that everyone's alchemy talent was far surpassed by Chu Yunfan's, and they could only look up to him in awe.

The feelings of jealousy and inferiority vanished instantly.

All that remains is admiration and worship.

However, what happened next made their hearts skip a beat.

Because Chu Yunfan's right hand suddenly trembled.

It turned out that the medicinal power of a certain third-tier spiritual herb was slightly stronger than Chu Yunfan had judged, resulting in a one-degree difference in the temperature of the flame he used, and the medicinal power almost failed to be extracted.

Fortunately, he discovered the problem in time and took remedial action.

However, his unexpected turn of events left all the viewers on the edge of their seats.

Originally, everyone was hoping that Chu Yunfan could successfully refine a third-tier pill so that they could witness a miracle.

However, this expectation is now in question.

They all began to doubt whether Chu Yunfan could successfully refine a third-tier pill this time.

At this moment, Chu Yunfan, because of the accident just now, became even more cautious and dared not relax for a moment.

Fortunately, everyone refrained from making a sound so as not to disturb Chu Yunfan.

In this extremely quiet and tense state, as Chu Yunfan focused all his attention on the alchemy furnace, his body suddenly entered a peculiar state.

In this state, he discovered that although his eyes were fixed on the outside of the alchemy furnace, he suddenly saw the scene inside the furnace.

He discovered that he could clearly see the changes in every drop of the medicinal liquid in the alchemy furnace, and he could also clearly feel the temperature of every wisp of flame.

In fact, Chu Yunfan's state is called the Mind's Eye state.

The so-called "mind's eye state" refers to the power of the mind entering the eyes, enabling the eyes to observe the outside world through the power of the mind.

The power of the mind is the power of the soul.

The power of the soul is unhindered by matter and possesses incredibly keen perception.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan was able to see the scene inside the alchemy furnace and observe the condition of each flame.

Of course, at this moment, Chu Yunfan was unaware that he had entered a state of mental perception.

Because only those with naturally strong soul power and extremely strong control, who can concentrate their consciousness to an unparalleled degree, can achieve the Mind's Eye state.

Throughout the entire history of the Azure Cloud Continent, very few people have ever entered the Mind's Eye state.

Therefore, the concept of the Mind's Eye state is not widely known on the Azure Cloud Continent; only those who have experienced the Mind's Eye state can understand this feeling.

Of course, although he didn't know what the Mind's Eye state was, it didn't prevent Chu Yunfan from using this special state to refine the Spirit Liquid Pill at this moment.

Under these conditions, Chu Yunfan's pill-refining speed increased rapidly, even faster than when he refined the first-tier pill, the Body Tempering Pill.

What was visible was that Chu Yunfan's hand movements suddenly quickened considerably.

At first, everyone thought that Chu Yunfan had made a mistake in refining the pills, which caused the chaotic situation.

However, before they could raise any questions...

The lid of the alchemy furnace suddenly flew off.

Immediately afterwards, nine more round pills flew out of the alchemy furnace.

This scene stunned everyone present, who were still reeling from their initial shock at Chu Yunfan's failed alchemy attempt.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Chu Yunfan successfully refined the pill.

Now, everyone's attention is focused on Yu Zhicheng.

Next, it's time to verify the quality of the elixir.

If one out of nine pills contains less than 50% impurities, it meets the standard for a high-grade or low-grade pill.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan has passed the third-level alchemist assessment.

However, to everyone's surprise, Yu Zhicheng's next sentence completely overturned their understanding.

"Nine pills, one of which is of superior grade, and eight of which are of the highest grade!"

"What! Eight top-grade ones!"

"Oh my god! What did I just hear?!"

"Eight top-grade pills!"

No, it must be my ears that are broken!

……

The expressions on everyone's faces as they looked at Yu Zhicheng were beyond words.

In fact, even Yu Zhicheng himself found it hard to believe what he had just said.

He even suspected there was something wrong with his eyes.

One batch contains nine pills, one of which is of superior quality and eight of which are of the highest quality, and they are all third-tier pills.

Even after hundreds of years of alchemy practice, and despite being a seasoned fourth-tier alchemy master, he had never achieved such a level of alchemy.

Even though he had high expectations for Chu Yunfan's talent in alchemy, he never imagined that Chu Yunfan could achieve this.

This is no longer a miracle, but a divine intervention!

But the words that followed completely convinced Yu Zhicheng.

A miracle truly occurred.

It turned out that City Lord Li and the heads of the four major families had gathered around and were carefully examining the pills in his hand. They couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, calling out the words "top-grade pills".

At that moment, Chu Yunfan on the assessment platform was also staring intently in Yu Zhicheng's direction.

Even Yu Zhicheng himself didn't believe it when he shouted out the words "eight top-grade pills".

In his view, he was already extremely fortunate to have managed to refine a low-grade pill and barely pass the test.

He didn't even dare to think about top-grade pills.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan waited for Yu Zhicheng's next reaction to hear whether Yu Zhicheng had made a mistake.

In fact, everyone was waiting for Yu Zhicheng to announce the results again.

They really couldn't believe it that time.

Looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, Yu Zhicheng, who had experienced many storms, felt immense pressure and dared not easily announce the results.

Suddenly, Yu Zhicheng's eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something, and he looked at the alchemists below the stage and said:

"All Martial Sect Realm cultivators, step forward. Next, I will throw out a Spirit Liquid Pill; you may snatch it yourselves."

Whoever gets to grab it first can consume it and then announce the quality of the pill to everyone!

As soon as Yu Zhicheng said this, the alchemists below, who were at the Martial Sect level, immediately began to rub their hands together, their eyes shining, ready to make a big splash.

Then, amidst everyone's eager anticipation, Yu Zhicheng tossed out a pill, one of the eight top-grade spirit liquid pills in his hand.

As soon as the pills were released, alchemists at the Martial Sect level used all their best skills to scramble for them.

Finally, one of them used a fire control technique to condense his own inner fire into a rope and snatched the pill.

Before he could even take the pill, he heard everyone around him shouting:

"Don't eat it yet!"

"Let me see it before I eat it, or I'll kill you!"

……

Seeing the crowd's outrage, the man immediately placed the pill in his palm, then opened his hand for everyone to see.

Everyone who saw the perfectly round, full, and crystal-clear pill in his hand immediately recognized it as a top-grade pill.

They are all seasoned alchemists, although they have never refined top-grade pills.

But as the saying goes, even if you haven't eaten pork, you've always seen pigs run; they can still tell whether a pill is of the highest quality or not.

However, to ensure that the judgment was correct, everyone urged the person to take the pill.

Seeing this, the man did not hesitate and immediately swallowed the pill in his hand, then began to circulate his internal energy to refine it.

Everyone else stared intently as he refined the pill.

Even Chu Yunfan was staring intently at him.

A quarter of an hour felt like an eternity.

Finally, the man opened his eyes, looked around at everyone, took several deep breaths to barely suppress his excitement, and slowly spoke:

"The pills melt instantly upon entering the mouth, making them much easier to refine than high-grade spiritual liquid pills."

Moreover, after refining, there was not a trace of impurity left.

This pill is indeed a top-grade pill!

These words caused an immediate uproar in the room. Everyone turned around and stared at Chu Yunfan on the assessment platform, shouting excitedly:

"The God of Pills!"

"The God of Pills!"

"The God of Pills!"

They called out the title "God of Alchemy" not because Chu Yunfan had become the God of Alchemy.

Rather, based on Chu Yunfan's demonstrated aptitude, he has the potential to become a Pill God.

At this moment, everyone had completely forgotten about Chu Yunfan's cultivation aptitude.

Compared to the Alchemy God's talent, Chu Yunfan's cultivation ability was insignificant.
