Primordial Treasure Mirror

The bottleneck from the mid-stage to the late-stage of Qi Refining.

Countless cultivators have been trapped in this predicament.

Especially cultivators with five spiritual roots.

Su Yang had also inquired about the situation of many cultivators with five spiritual roots within the sect in recent days.

Most of them are stuck in the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

Breaking through to the late stage of Qi Refining is extremely difficult.

Either take a pill to break through.

Without elixirs, one can only rely on persistent, painstaking effort.

However, no one can say for sure how long it will take to break through the bottleneck.

There are cultivators with five spiritual roots who have been grinding at the sixth level of Qi Refining for decades, but they still haven't been able to break through that hurdle.

Many people eventually die of old age at the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

Su Yang didn't think he would be the exception.

Perhaps the quality of his spiritual energy can increase his chances of breaking through the bottleneck.

But Su Yang didn't want probability; he wanted absolute certainty.

The Five Elemental Roots are simply the Five Elemental Roots.

The fundamental flaws in their qualifications are undeniable.

He wouldn't be so arrogant as to think he could easily overcome that hurdle.

Therefore, it is necessary to prepare the elixir for breaking through to the late stage of Qi Refining, and it must be prepared in advance.

Otherwise, waiting until you've reached the sixth level of Qi Refining before seeking it would be too much of a delay in your cultivation.

Thinking about this...

Su Yang couldn't help but take out the two pill bottles he had obtained from Ding Yue's storage bag a few days ago.

He opened one of them and looked at the pale golden pill inside, and couldn't help but sigh.

He hasn't been idle these days.

He had also subtly inquired about similar elixirs from Ma Liu and others.

He dared not describe it in too much detail, and could only ask vaguely, ultimately failing to get a precise answer.

Having been involved in alchemy for so many days, Su Yang has developed a certain ability to judge the medicinal properties of pills.

He could tell that the two pale gold pills were beneficial to cultivation.

He couldn't see any more.

Therefore, Su Yang had considered taking it directly, thinking that there should be no danger.

But in the end, he gave up.

He was unwilling to take that risk.

Elixirs, whether good or bad, should not be taken indiscriminately.

Who knows what special effects it has?

He possessed two precious pills, but could not take them.

Su Yang was truly itching to get his hands on it.

He reluctantly put the pills away again.

Now, the only person he can think of who knows about these two pills is probably Pang Yue.

Ding Yue and Pang Yue, those two old dogs, colluded in their evil deeds.

Pang Yue most likely knew about the pills in Ding Yue's storage bag, and might even have had a share of them, otherwise how could there be exactly two?

If only we could get the answer from Pang Yue about what those two pills were.

Unfortunately, I couldn't ask.

Don't even mention asking about the origin of these two pills.

He believed that if Su Yang dared to appear in front of Pang Yue, Pang Yue would take his anger out on him.

After all, he was just a lowly servant; it wouldn't matter if he were killed.

I want to inquire about Pang Yue's elixir.

unless......

Su Yang thought of a possibility.

Unless it's when Pang Yue is about to be killed.

At that time, he no longer had to worry about revealing his strength and could ask whatever he wanted without restraint.

Su Yang has now reached the fifth level of Qi Refining.

He also practiced the improved spells of the magic school.

Judging from their strength, killing Pang Yue wouldn't be a problem.

The only problem is that there's no opportunity.

He now works as a menial alchemist on Tianqing Peak.

He had to work in the alchemy room every day and return to his residence to cultivate at night, so he simply didn't have enough time to go to Cui Ling Peak to find an opportunity to deal with Pang Yue.

Unless Min Yue grants them another day off.

There is a whole day.

Things may take a turn for the better.

Judging from the current situation...

Min Yue's progress in refining the Golden Marrow Pill is not ideal.

Min Yue had given it her all for Elder Lianhuo's disciple assessment.

With only ten days or so left, she probably wouldn't even rest herself, so how could she let these menial servants and alchemists take a break?

Fortunately, Su Yang wasn't in a hurry.

During this time, he decided to focus on cultivation, improve his skills, and acquire knowledge of alchemy.

Min Yue went to take the assessment.

He naturally had plenty of time to find an opportunity to kill Pang Yue at Cui Ling Peak.

It's not too late to ask about the two pills later.

The next few days.

The atmosphere in the alchemy room grew more and more oppressive each day.

Min Yue arrives very early every day and leaves later than usual.

Normally, I would only practice three or four rounds.

I've started practicing the Five Furnaces technique recently.

Min Yue has completely mastered the Condensing Essence Pill, and now she refines five batches of Golden Marrow Pills every day.

She became completely absorbed in alchemy.

He spent his days either refining elixirs or deep in thought with a furrowed brow.

He would occasionally exchange alchemy experiences with Chen Yuan.

However, the result was still unsatisfactory.

Three or four days passed in a row.

She still hadn't succeeded in making the Golden Marrow Pill in one batch.

Every now and then, he manages to produce a few batches of unusable pills.

Its condition varies, sometimes good, sometimes bad.

More often than not, there aren't even any waste pills, only a batch of medicinal dregs.

Su Yang's mindset was better than everyone else's in the alchemy room.

He quietly watched from the sidelines every day, silently noting down Min Yue's adjustments and attempts after each failure.

He could sense that Min Yue's alchemy skills had become much more proficient than before.

Both the rhythm of each step of alchemy and the control of timing have been greatly improved.

In particular, Min Yue could tell that Deacon Sun had put a lot of effort into mastering the Cleansing Elixir Technique he mentioned last time.

But Jin Sui Dan clearly couldn't appreciate her efforts.

Su Yang understood that alchemy was like that; hard work didn't guarantee results.

It mainly depends on talent and experience.

Min Yue is talented, but lacks experience.

Given enough time, Su Yang believed she would definitely be able to master it.

But the current situation is that she doesn't have that much time.

Time passed day by day.

According to Elder Liehuo's disciple assessment, there are less than ten days left.

This day.

Min Yue arrived early as always.

When Su Yang arrived, Chen Yuan was already in the house processing spiritual materials.

The two exchanged a glance, but neither spoke, and they continued working in silence.

A short while later, Zhou Dazhu and the others arrived, and Min Yue also arrived.

Everyone could vaguely sense the suppressed aura emanating from Min Yue.

No one dared to say a word, and everyone moved much more gently.

Min Yue didn't say a word. She arrived and immediately started the fire by making hand seals, opening the furnace to refine pills.

The first batch was refined.

She was extremely meticulous in everything she did: adding the medicine, controlling the fire, melting the medicine, and condensing the elixir.

There wasn't anything seriously wrong with the technique either.

But in the end, it still failed.

When she collected the pills, only a few grayish-yellow waste pills remained in her hand.

Min Yue didn't even glance at the useless pill in her hand, frowned, and casually tossed it away.

Su Yang's gaze followed the discarded pill, and his eyes lit up slightly.

The quality of today's batch of discarded pills is not bad.

At least two of them look to be in good condition and should be able to be sold to Ma Liu.

Su Yang pondered in his heart, adding to the few qualified but defective pills that Min Yue had refined a few days ago.

I can get another spirit stone from Ma Liu.

Although the Golden Marrow Pill is much more difficult to refine than the Condensing Essence Pill.

However, its efficacy is only slightly better than that of Ningyuan Dan.

Therefore, selling discarded pills is not worth much.

Ma Liu buys discarded Golden Marrow Pills and discarded Condensing Essence Pills in the same way: twenty qualified discarded pills in exchange for one low-grade spirit stone.

Another spirit stone was earned.

Su Yang's mood improved a bit.

At that very moment.

Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from the air.

Su Yang looked up.

Yu Shuang, that crazy woman, fell from the sky.

What is she here for?
