Chapter 511: Chapter 193: 14 Foundation Establishment Pills! Commencing Foundation Establishment! Karma Desire Technique!!!

This, too, is why many cultivators would rather rely on their own hard cultivation and try to avoid taking, or take fewer Spirit Pills.

Zhou Changwang himself, only in the later stages of cultivating the Five Elements Glazed Heart Lamp, with its constant illumination and burning, could maximize the expulsion of impurities and erysipelas, otherwise he would not dare to recklessly consume Spirit Pills for cultivation.

After all, the Jade Flower Pills he bought from the auction were mostly lower grade.

While their Spiritual Power content wasn’t low, the impurities and toxins were equally frightening.

"After combining the pills comes the pill separation.

If combining the pills tests the reaction of Spiritual Energy and the control of Spiritual Power, then pill separation requires even more meticulous techniques, needing to eliminate or mix impurities as much as possible to allow other Spirit Pills to truly possess the effect of finished Spirit Pills."

Zhou Changwang took a deep breath, daring not to relax.

He continued to use the Pill Separation Technique.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

In a flash, the lump of elliptical Spirit Pill was rapidly separated, splitting into seven.

The emergence of the Pill Separation Technique marked the official completion of this round of refining.

Zhou Changwang suddenly became excited.

"Did it succeed?"

He quickly deployed the Pill Collection Technique.

The seven Spirit Pills rapidly transformed into streams of light and shot out.

All floated in front of Zhou Changwang.

"Impurity content, ninety percent, ninety-three, eighty-five, seventy-seven, ninety-two, eighty-three, seventy-one..."

Zhou Changwang examined each one.

The smile on his face suddenly froze completely.

If you say it succeeded...

It could be considered a success.

After all, every step he took was not wrong, and he finally succeeded in combining and separating the pills.

Although he wasted and dissipated a lot of Spiritual Materials and medicinal power during the alchemy process, ending up with seven pills was still quite good.

However!

The impurity content of all seven Spirit Pills exceeded seventy percent.

That is to say.

All before him were wasted pills.

Not a single one successfully refined.

What Zhou Changwang regretted the most was the pill with an impurity content of seventy-one percent.

Just a little less.

If the impurity content were slightly lower, it would mean that he had successfully refined a Foundation Establishment Pill this time.

Alas.

The gap between seventy-one and seventy is like a chasm straddling success and failure.

"Ultimately, it still failed.

Although this wasted pill, if spread outside, someone would undoubtedly try it, it still has some protective effect.

But failure is failure.

The Attribute Panel does not show it."

Zhou Changwang sighed, feeling truly regretful.

His alchemy process was without error.

But after all, it was his first time refining a Foundation Establishment Pill, so he was somewhat inexperienced in handling the Spiritual Materials.

Here a little wrong, there not handled well, gradually accumulated, and the Spirit Pill ultimately failed due to too many impurities and erysipelas.

"No rush.

There are still two more chances.

Learning from this lesson, the chances for success next time will be greater."

Although Zhou Changwang was distressed by the materials worth five hundred thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, with his good mentality, he quickly adjusted.

He then began to carefully review the issues from the last alchemy process.

Step by step, recalling every single step.

Organizing and improving himself.

In fact, during the refining process, he discovered many problems. If he changed his method, used different Pill Formulas, adjusted the Alchemy Skill to be a few breaths faster or slower, the result could have been better.

But once he started the alchemy, he couldn’t stop, he could only proceed stubbornly down one path.

Heading into the darkness, naturally, it was difficult to see the light.

One hour, two hours later.

Zhou Changwang brewed another cup of Thousand-Year Enlightenment Tea.

Once again, he began reflecting.

The Foundation Establishment Pill is so important to him.

He can accept one failure, even two, but cannot accept stagnation, failing to improve.

And the extensive preparation before alchemy, in his view, is never a waste.

Until the effects of the Thousand-Year Enlightenment Tea faded, Zhou Changwang finally opened his eyes and stood once more in front of the Alchemy Furnace.

He was ready.

He then began the preparations for the second attempt at alchemy.

This time, he again brewed a pot of Thousand-Year Enlightenment Tea.

This time, there were five leaves in it.

Now he had very little Enlightenment Tea left, only about one tenth of a tael, enough for about two to three brews.

He then reached out and pointed forward.

In an instant, the Nanming Li Fire shot out and landed in the Alchemy Furnace.

Bang!

Zhou Changwang quickly tapped the Bicolored Flower.

Another round of alchemy began.

While introducing the Bicolored Flower into it.

He quickly added the White Moon Flower, Late Red, and Three-leaf Spirit Flower into the mix.

Previously, he melted the Bicolored Flower and extracted its medicinal liquid aura before adding the White Moon Flower, Late Red, and Three-leaf Spirit Flower.

Though the fusion of the liquid from the three Spiritual Materials smoothly condensed the boiling medicine liquid extracted from the Bicolored Flower.

In this process, there was still a lot of waste generated.

With the experience from before, he naturally thought of an improvement method.

That is to pre-mix these three Spiritual Materials.

Sure enough.

When the medicinal liquid from the Bicolored Flower was extracted, the condensed medicine liquid was also immediately refined, quickly wrapping onto the boiling Spiritual Liquid.
