I have a proficiency panel for alchemy and immortality

Chapter 50 Who could be the murderer?

"Not bad, not bad. The attribute panel also recognizes my identity as a first-level alchemist. Hahahaha..."

Song Jie laughed for a while, then looked at the proficiency of Fu Ling Wan.

"Proficiency level is still 101...

"Is it because the elixir that has been improved by skill points does not receive a ten-point proficiency bonus when it is successfully refined for the first time?"

Before, when he was refining the Budao Pill, Yuanyang Pill, and Vajra Dragon and Tiger Pill.

The first successful refining will reward you with ten proficiency points, which can be converted into ten skill points.

However, although the Soul-Restoring Pills were successfully refined this time, no proficiency or skill points were rewarded.

"It seems that you can't have your cake and eat it too. When you gain something, you are destined to lose something."

Although he felt a little regretful, Song Jie did not regret his decision.

If you don't rely on skill points to improve your proficiency, and rely entirely on refining again and again, you don't know how many failures you will have to go through before you can succeed.

Wanting to take a shortcut and getting a reward, this kind of good thing probably only happens in dreams.

Shaking his head and smiling, Song Jie put five Fuling Pills into the pill bottle and put a label "Fuling Pills" on it.

“The Fuling Pills sold on the market usually come in bottles of five or ten pills.

"According to the market price, these five inferior soul-restoring pills of mine can be sold for two spirit stones."

Poor quality does not mean that the pill is a failure, it just means that the quality is not that good and there are more impurities. However, it is still effective, just that the effect is slightly worse.

Therefore, even inferior quality Fuling Pills still have a market and can be sold if the price is right.

“If you can refine lower-quality Soul-Restoring Pills, every five pills can be sold for four Spirit Stones.

“For medium quality, five pills cost six spirit stones.

“Five pellets of top quality cost eight spirit stones.

“If you refine a high-quality Soul-Restoring Pill, you can sell it for ten Spiritual Stones!

"As for perfect quality..."

Song Jie smiled and shook his head.

He had never heard of a perfect quality Fuling Pill. At least in Xinyue Market, it was almost impossible to find a perfect quality first-grade elixir.

Even in the Baodan Building, at most only high-quality first-grade elixirs have appeared, and the output is extremely small.

The first-grade elixirs sold in Baodanlou are mainly of medium and superior quality, and occasionally they also sell high-quality first-grade elixirs.

“If I can improve my proficiency in the Soul-Restoring Pill to a minor level, I should be able to stabilize the quality at a low to medium level.

“In this way, the profitability of Fuling Pills will exceed that of King Kong Dragon and Tiger Pills.

“However, at this stage, the main focus is still on the Vajra Dragon and Tiger Pill, supplemented by the Budao Pill and Yuanyang Pill.

“Sell one or two more bottles of inferior rejuvenation pills and soul-restoring pills, and let everyone know that I am already a first-class alchemist.”

Although Song Jie is now a celebrity, in the eyes of the cultivators in Xinyue Market, Song Jie is still an alchemist who has not yet entered the rank.

The fame he has gained now is all due to the Popularity Pill Competition.

This medicine competition organized by the Danding Sect attracted a lot of attention, allowing Song Jie to take advantage of this opportunity to become famous.

And these fames are bound to fade away little by little with the passage of time and cannot last at all.

If I let everyone know that I have been promoted to a first-level alchemist before this wave of hype has passed, I can consolidate the fame I have gained.

They can also obtain a certain status in cultivation and be sought after by many cultivators.

By then, the sales of elixirs will be wider.

This is how you can truly gain both fame and fortune.

Thinking of this, Song Jie looked at the thirty-one skill points left, and a flame of high morale seemed to be burning in his eyes.

"Continue to refine pills, accumulate skill points, and improve the proficiency of Rejuvenation Pills and Azure Netherfire to proficiency first!"

After saying that, he picked up some firewood, stuffed it into the stove, lit the fire, and began to refine the Vajra Dragon Tiger Pill.

……at the same time.

A street not far from the house where Song Jie rented.

A middle-aged man wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat was strolling on the street.

Looking at the traces of fighting left on the ground and the outer wall of the house, he reached out and brushed across the blood that had already solidified on the wall, then put it to his nose and sniffed it.

"It is indeed my stupid brother's blood."

Nie Yixiong put his hand down expressionlessly and looked at the holes on the wall, which were about the thickness of fingers.

“It seems that the murderer who killed my stupid brother was a monk who was good at using finger techniques.

“My stupid brother was killed by a headshot in the end, which means that in addition to finger techniques, the other party also mastered at least one powerful spell.

"A spell that can blow someone's head off... The most likely possibility is that it was done by fistfighting, but there were no signs of a fight left by fistfighting at the scene.

"It's also possible that the opponent used his boxing skills at the last moment and smashed my stupid brother's head with one punch."

While observing the signs of fighting on the street, Nie Yixiong deduced the characteristics of the murderer.

“In addition to boxing, there are other spells that can also blow someone’s head off with one strike, but we are not in a rush to draw a conclusion on this.

“My stupid brother’s cultivation level is at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Stage, and the other party’s cultivation level should not be lower than this.

“However, considering that my stupid brother is so stupid, it is not impossible that he was killed by a cultivator with a lower cultivation level than him.

"For the time being, let's lock our target on cultivators at the fourth level of Qi Refining and above..."

In Nie Yixiong's opinion, if the level of cultivation is only one level different, the lower-level cultivator still has a chance to kill the higher-level cultivator.

As for those whose cultivation level is two or even three levels lower, it is not completely without chance.

As long as you have a powerful first-grade spiritual weapon.

Or a high-quality first-grade elixir that can increase combat power in a short period of time.

Or maybe you have a powerful first-grade talisman.

They can all kill enemies of higher levels.

But all these can only be achieved with the help of external forces.

And through his observation, no remaining traces of spiritual weapons or talismans were found at the scene.

As for the high-quality first-grade elixir that can enhance combat power, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

However, cultivators who can possess such elixirs at the low level of Qi Refining Stage are usually not ordinary people and have some status and background.

Nie Yixiong felt that no matter how stupid his brother was, he would not be stupid enough to provoke a cultivator with status and background...

"There is another situation, that is, at the lower levels of the Qi Refining Stage, one has honed his spells and body movements to great proficiency, and can even kill enemies of a higher level.

“However, most of these cultivators are geniuses, so how could they appear in New Moon Market? They should be in the major sects.

"If these are really the extremely unlikely scenarios, then the murderer's identity and background are probably someone I can't afford to offend."

Nie Yixiong shook his head and directly ruled out these extremely unlikely situations.

Then he continued to observe the remaining traces of fighting on the street.

“From the traces of fighting at the scene, the two sides fought for a while, which shows that their cultivation strengths are not much different.

“The murderer’s cultivation level should not exceed the sixth level of Qi Refining Stage.

“His cultivation level is between the fourth and sixth levels of the Qi Refining Stage, and he is good at using finger techniques.

"In addition, he also possesses a powerful spell that can blow people's heads off."

You know, given the hardness of the head of a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining Stage, it is not something that can be blown off by ordinary spells.

Nie Yixiong's eyes were looking straight ahead, narrowed slightly, and gradually became colder.

"Who could be the murderer?"
