Fantasy: I'm in a discarded alchemy room, but I can turn trash into treasure!

In the cave behind the mountain, Qin Mo sat cross-legged, with the Qiankun Huasheng Furnace hanging in front of him.

Thirty discarded pills were thrown into the furnace, and a surge of cosmic energy emerged, merging with the discarded pills.

The furnace body shimmered with spiritual light, and the fragrance of cinnamon wafted from the furnace opening.

Soon, the furnace fell silent.

A line of text appeared on the furnace wall.

Body Tempering Pill, Marrow Cleansing Pill, Mind Concentration Pill, Qi Gathering Pill...

Qin Mo's gaze was intense as he counted them one by one.

Adding to the previous batch of thirty-three pills, the two reshaping processes yielded a total of sixty-three high-grade pills.

He mentally calculated and categorized all the pills.

Qi Gathering Pills: Three of Grade 9 (Upper) and fifteen of Grade 9 (Lower), for a total of eighteen.

Body Tempering Pills: Three high-grade ninth-rank pills and four low-grade ninth-rank pills, for a total of seven.

Marrow Cleansing Pill: One pill for the middle grade of the ninth rank, and four pills for the lower grade of the ninth rank, for a total of five.

Concentration Pill: One Grade 9 Upper, two Grade 9 Lower, three in total.

Youth-preserving pills: seven pills of the lowest grade nine.

……

There were also a few miscellaneous ones.

There are a total of sixty-three pills.

If these were all sold, they would be worth at least tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.

However, now is definitely not the time to sell pills in large quantities, as it would be easy to attract unwanted attention.

Let's play it safe and hide these pills for now, then sell them slowly when the opportunity arises.

Qin Mo took a deep breath, suppressing his surging excitement.

With these elixirs, he would essentially have a small resource mine at his disposal.

So what if one has mixed spiritual roots of the five elements?

You can even boost your cultivation level by throwing medicine at it.

Su Qingyi said that he was destined to never achieve immortality in this life?

He looked down at the faint, flowing patterns on the furnace and twitched his lips.

However, all these pills are of the lowest grade, and the most useless of them all is the Youth Preservation Pill.

This thing does nothing to improve one's cultivation level; it only helps one maintain a youthful appearance.

But then I thought about it again. The inner sect of Yunyu Palace is all female cultivators. Which one of them doesn't cherish their appearance?

A single youth-preserving pill can maintain youth for decades, making it highly sought after among female cultivators.

These seven Youth Preservation Pills can easily be exchanged for several hundred spirit stones.

What's truly valuable are the pills that can help cultivators break through to higher realms.

Foundation-Opening Pill, Realm-Breaking Pill, Infant-Condensing Pill.

These kinds of waste pills can only be found in those few pavilions deep within the Remnant Pill Pavilion, where black mist rises to the sky.

"I must take down the Remnant Pill Pavilion."

Qin Mo lifted the furnace lid, revealing sixty-three crystal-clear pills lying at the bottom of the furnace.

Then he froze.

There is no jade bottle.

The elixir needs to be sealed in a jade bottle to isolate its fragrance and lock in its medicinal power.

He was just a menial disciple, and his storage bag was almost worn out. Where would he have gotten a jade bottle?

If you carry the pills on your person, the strong scent of the pills will attract attention at any time.

He is now a lowly servant in the Cloud Rain Palace, unable to afford high-grade pills. If discovered, he could have his pills stolen or even lose his life.

Qin Mo stared at the Transformation Furnace for a moment, then tried to retract the furnace containing the pills back into his dantian.

With a thought, the Transformation Furnace transformed into a beam of spiritual light and entered the depths of his dantian.

"It's done."

The elixir remains in the furnace, which is hidden in the dantian, so no one can find it.

He stood up, walked to the cave entrance, and looked at the sky.

It's still early before dawn.

Qin Mo returned to the cave and sat down.

First, take the Body Tempering Pill to strengthen muscles, bones, and meridians; then, use the Marrow Cleansing Pill to purify the physical body; and finally, take the Qi Gathering Pill to improve cultivation.

If the foundation is not solid, any advancement in cultivation will be nothing but a castle in the air.

It can't be rushed.

He took out a Body Tempering Pill from his dantian and swallowed it directly.

The elixir melted upon entering the stomach, and a surge of scalding elixir energy rushed into the limbs and bones.

His meridians were violently eroded by this force, causing him so much pain that the veins on his forehead bulged, and he almost cried out.

He circulated his internal energy to refine the medicinal power, his teeth clenching so hard they cracked.

The first one is finished, but that's far from enough.

The second one went into my stomach.

Dan power erupted once more, widening the meridians as if they had been torn apart, and then reconnecting them.

The pain made his vision blur and he was drenched in sweat.

The third one, the fourth one, the fifth one.

After refining all five Grade 9 Body Tempering Pills, a layer of viscous black impurities seeped from his skin, and his physique was significantly enhanced.

But it's still a long way from a complete transformation.

"There are two Grade 9 or higher remaining."

Qin Mo looked at the two higher-quality Body Tempering Pills in his palm.

These two pills are more potent than the previous five combined; they could be sold for at least several thousand spirit stones.

He gritted his teeth and swallowed both in one gulp.

The next moment, the power exploded.

In the meridians, in the bones, in the blood, wherever the elixir passes, it destroys everything in its path.

The bones were tempered to be hard, the spiritual roots were cleansed to be purer, and the speed at which spiritual energy was absorbed increased dramatically.

Qin Mo was in so much pain that he almost fainted. In his blurred consciousness, he had only one thought left: to hold on.

That day, Su Qingyi stood in front of the palace gate and said, "If you don't know how to advance or retreat, no one will ask why the alchemy room is short of a servant."

Those eyes that looked down from above.

He cannot fall.

After an unknown amount of time, the pain subsided, replaced by an unprecedented sense of relief.

A mosquito flew past the cave entrance, and he could clearly hear the frequency of its wings flapping.

In the pitch-black cave, the trail of an ant crawling on the ground was clearly visible.

He continued to take five more Marrow Cleansing Pills.

The physical body was strengthened once again, and the impurity layer on the body surface peeled off.

Qin Mo clenched his fist and shook it, causing the black scabs on his arm to shatter, revealing the firm muscle lines underneath.

Its daybreak.

He walked out of the cave, stood in front of an old pine tree, took a deep breath, and threw a punch.

"Bang!"

A deep fist-shaped mark was smashed into the tree trunk, the entire pine tree shook violently, and pine needles fell in a flurry.

Qin Mo stared at the fist mark, his breathing rapid.

He didn't use his full strength in that punch.

Even if Sun Hu, who was at the third level of Qi Refining, went all out, this level of power would still be no match for him.

"We also need to find a body-refining technique."

He withdrew his fist. "With the Body Tempering Pill and Body Refining Technique, the physical body can become even stronger."

But the Body Tempering Pills were all used up, and the Marrow Cleansing Pills were also gone.

What he needs most right now is discarded pills.

Without the Qi of Heaven and Earth, no matter how many waste pills you have, they are still useless.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth is fundamental, and the only way to obtain it is through dual cultivation.

Those inner sect senior sisters of Yunyu Palace are all arrogant and haughty. Who would want to cultivate with a menial disciple?

Unless he has something they can't refuse.

The grand imperial examination is approaching.

Those inner sect senior sisters urgently need to improve their cultivation, stand out in the competition, and attract the attention of the elders.

What do they desire most?

It wasn't those low-grade ninth-rank pills he had.

It is the Foundation Establishment Pill, the Realm Breakthrough Pill, and the Nascent Soul Condensation Pill.

For those senior sisters who are stuck at the Great Perfection of the Tenth Level of Qi Refining, a Foundation Establishment Pill is the key to stepping into the Foundation Establishment stage.

A Breakthrough Pill can help a Foundation Establishment cultivator break through a minor realm.

Needless to say, the Condensing Infant Pill is enough to allow even a Golden Core cultivator at the peak to glimpse the gate to the Nascent Soul stage.

The waste pills from these elixirs are all located deep within the Residual Elixir Pavilion.

The light in Qin Mo's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

As long as he becomes the guardian disciple of the Remnant Pill Pavilion, he can continuously acquire high-level waste pills and use the Transformation Furnace to reshape them into finished products.

At that time, wouldn't those high and mighty inner sect senior sisters be vying to beg for pills?

They were willing to exchange it for dual cultivation, and he would give it to them.

If you don't want to, then forget it.

Dual cultivation yields the Qi of Heaven and Earth, which reshapes a discarded elixir, transforming it into a high-quality elixir. This elixir then attracts senior sisters to engage in dual cultivation.

The cycle repeats endlessly, cultivation levels soar, and resources become inexhaustible.

Qin Mo clenched his fists, his chest burning.
