Seeing Qingfeng Li come in, Lu Gu’s eyes revealed a touch of joy, but also some embarrassment.

Lu Gu was pleased because he had not seen Qingfeng Li for two days; he tried looking for him but didn’t succeed. He wanted to ask Qingfeng Li some questions about pill refinement, but he was embarrassed that his attempt at the supreme level pill had failed, and the process was seen by Qingfeng Li as well...

Qingfeng asked, “Lu Gu, what happened to you? Why did you injure yourself with an explosion?”

Lu Gu’s face changed slightly, his awkward look gone as he explained, “I wanted to refine supreme level pills, but it did not succeed.”

Qingfeng Li asked, “What supreme level pills do you want to refine? Tell me, I may be able to give you some advice.”

Lu Gu said, “The supreme level pill I’m trying to make is named the Ice Supreme Pill.”

Hearing the name of the ice supreme pill, Qingfeng Li pondered for a moment and said, “Tell me, how did you come to fail refining this pill.”

Lu Gu said embarrassingly, “When I tried to refine the ice supreme pill, I added dark ice water but did not think it would make it explode. It was beyond my expectations. Logically speaking, dark ice water belongs to the cold property, which should not be capable of exploding.”

Qingfeng Li nodded. He knew that in most people’s minds, dark ice water belonged to the water property. Water should not explode, as only fire would.

But, in fact, there are no absolutes. When water encounters very low temperatures or conflicts with other spirit herbs, it could result in violent chemical reactions which lead to explosions. This was referred to as quantitative change in refinement.

Qingfeng decided to peruse the Alchemy Arts of Saints in the depth his mind. There was an introduction about dark ice water, in which dark ice water would cause an explosion when it encounters three substances. The three substances respectively were seven-star grass, chrysanthemum, and bauhinia leaves.

Qingfeng Li walked to Lu Gu’s side, picked up the pieces of elixirs on the ground, and placed it by his nose. Taking a whiff, he was able to quickly identify the herbs that were part of the elixir.

“This supreme level elixir contains dark ice water, Bauhinia leaves...” Qingfeng Li faintly smiled and said to Lu Gu who was next to him.

“Did you mix bauhinia leaves into the dark ice water?” Qingfeng Li asked.

Lu Gu nodded and said, “Yes, Bauhinia leaves can lower the temperature of dark ice water, which could temper the elixirs into becoming more potent and stable.”

Qingfeng Li shook his head and said, “Ice water can not be used with Bauhinia leaves. The two will conflict because the fundamental components in them are not compatible.”

Lu Gu’s eyes revealed a touch of doubt, and he said, “If they cannot be used together, what should we replaced it with? The Crimson Fire Continent’s Alchemist Arts say that the two should work together, is it wrong?”

Qingfeng Li faintly smiled and said, “I don’t know the validity of the Crimson Fire Continent’s Alchemist Arts, but this kind of technique is absolutely wrong.”

Qingfeng Li explained to Lu Gu in detail why Dark Ice and Bauhinia leaves conflicted with each other, this was the most basic knowledge of elixirs. It was like the five essential elements – gold, wood, water, fire, and soil. When wood contacts fire, it would explode when it ignites. This was just the nature of the two elements.

There was another situation, when water meets soil that under icing cold condition, the soil will freeze and could cause an explosion in the end.

Lu Gu suddenly realized, his eyes filled with surprise, looking at Qingfeng Li with a glimmer of gratitude and worship. Lu Gu knew about Qingfeng Li’s outstanding abilities in the refinement of pills, and today, he witnessed it again.

Lu Gu knew that as an alchemist, one could only be called a supreme level alchemist if they can refine a supreme level pill. Since he could only refine emperor level class nine elixirs, he could only be called an emperor level class nine alchemist.

It had always been Lu Gu’s dream to become a supreme level alchemist. Now he could see the possibility of accomplishing his dream, if Qingfeng Li was willing to help him.

Lu Gu looked at Qingfeng Li with desire and pleaded, “Qingfeng Li, can you help me?”

Qingfeng Li smiled and said, “Lu Gu, you lended me so many emperor level vitality stones at the Imperial Capital Auction, so I obviously needed to thank you. Today, I will tell you how to refine supreme level elixirs so you can become an supreme level alchemist.”

Qingfeng Li smiled and explained, “The biggest difference between supreme level alchemy and emperor level alchemy is the elixir’s character.”

“If an emperor level elixir can reach seventy percent purity, then an supreme level elixir can reach eighty percent purity. The higher tier an alchemist is, the clearer and finer the ingredients are in the spirit herbs properties.:

Qingfeng Li smiled and told Lu Gu all about the methods of refining supreme level elixirs detailed in the Alchemy Arts of Saints.

After Lu Gu listened, his face filled with joy because he was an emperor level class nine alchemist and could almost breakthrough to the supreme level.

Lu Gu was very familiar with the refinement of pills and some spirit herb properties, such as how to refine elixirs so that the purity becomes higher. He just lacked the insight.

Now, Qingfeng Li told Lu Gu the situation, he finally understood how to refine supreme level elixirs, so his heart was very happy.

Lu Gu first thanked Qingfeng Li, and then turned around to began refining the ice supreme pill. He wanted to test the methods Qingfeng Li had just told him and see if it was correct.

Of course, Lu Gu had already believed Qingfeng Li in his own mind. Lu Gu first threw several spirit herbs into the alchemy furnace, and then released his red flames to heat it.

This was a black alchemy furnace, which was as tall as two people. On the surface of the furnace was engraved a series of dark talisman scripture. Each talisman scripture represented a kind of spirit herb.

The three most important things to refine pills consisted of, spirit herbs, an alchemy furnace, and lastly, the flame. Of course, there was another important factor, which was the alchemist’s spirit power.

The more powerful the alchemist’s spirit power was, the better the elixirs would be produced during their refinement.

Lu Gu’s spirit power was undoubtedly very strong, so the red flame he condensed was also very powerful, continually heating the alchemy furnace beneath.

In a moment, the alchemy furnace began emitting waves of herbal scents.

According to the method Qingfeng Li taught him, the flame’s size and its control, as well as the properties and proportions of the spirit herbs, were in the optimal ratio, without the slightest deviations.

An hour later, a rich fragrance of herbs wafted out from within the alchemy furnace, which made people feel very comfortable, like drinking the most delicious soup.

Lu Gu hurriedly opened the alchemy furnace and reached in to take out a green elixir. The elixir was not large, only the size of a thumb, but it was surrounded by a green talisman scripture.
