I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 33: Fire is Purely Green

Translator: 549690339

Last three years.

Han Yi had broken through from the fourth layer of Qi Cultivation to the fifth layer.

But in this three years, in terms of cultivation, Han Yi is still at the fifth layer of Qi Cultivation, with a short distance to the sixth layer.

The further along, the more difficult it is to progress in realms.

However.

The difficulties in cultivation did not affect the breakthrough in his skills.

First, the Spirit Void Finger had broken through, from[Mastering]to[Fire is Purely Green].

And the power of the Spirit Void Finger after the breakthrough did not disappoint Han Yi.

With just one-tenth of the mana compressed within his body, a single finger blast could directly shake the courtyard formation.

Han Yi estimated that the power of this finger had already reached the standard of the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation.

In other words.

After the breakthrough, Han Yi could now confront foes at the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation with only his fifth layer cultivation base. Although victory or defeat were uncertain — since all such scenarios were imagined without engaging in actual combat — Han Yi’s confidence undoubtedly soared.

Following the breakthrough of the Spirit Void Finger,

The second skill to break through was not Sword Control Skill, but Alchemy Skill.

After spending a fortune to ward off misfortune three years ago, Han Yi’s Spirit Stones were completely depleted, so he invested a lot of time into alchemy.

The breakthrough of Alchemy Skill significantly improved his alchemy abilities.

Nowadays.

His success rate in refining Nurturing Qi Pills was almost one hundred percent, and at least six out of every ten furnaces produced Nurturing Qi Pills of standard quality.

The success rate of refining Exorcise Evil Spirits Pills had also reached fifty percent, and occasionally he could even refine Exorcise Evil Spirits Pills of standard quality.

You should know.

The breakthrough in the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation requires standard quality Exorcise Evil Spirits Pills.

The prices of such pills in the market skyrocketed exponentially when compared to their average counterparts.

Each standard-quality Exorcise Evil Spirits Pill fetched a market price of around thirty inferior Spirit Stones, which is six times more than an average quality Exorcise Evil Spirits Pill.

At the same time.

Aside from the original four pills that he could refine, he had gotten his hands on two more Pill Formulas. One was for the Spirit-Sensing Pill and the other for the Melting Qi Pill.

These two pills were common staple pills for the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation.

Han Yi had spent a lot of money on two Pill Formulas to expand his presence in the Late Stage Qi Cultivation market.

With his current Alchemy Skill, refining ordinary pills was effortless, but their profits were too small.

Hence, he sought to refine higher-priced pills.

Spirit-Sensing Pills and Melting Qi Pills were the pills he selected for making money.

The Spirit-Sensing Pill was a pill used at the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation for expanding one’s sensing range of Spirit Energy, creating a base of sensing for the expanded mana pool within one’s body.

Upon stepping into the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation, one needs to make preparations for the Immortal Path Foundation Building. This bridging stage is the core reserve force of a sect.

The Melting Qi Pill, on the other hand, was used in conjunction with the Spirit-Sensing Pill to convert the absorbed Spirit Energy into one’s own mana at a faster rate.

These two pills complemented each other and were often sold as sets at high prices.

Dedicating three years to pill refining and selling had allowed him to amass even greater wealth, making him several times richer than before.

Following the breakthrough in Alchemy Skill, he then made a breakthrough in Sword Control Skill and later, Light Body Technique.

Over the past three years, he not only frequented the markets in the various outer peaks but also ventured into the Inner Peak markets to sell pills.

In fact.

Originally in Xuandan Sect, there was no such thing as markets, whether it was Inner Peaks or Outer Peaks. All inner and outer disciples conducted exchanges and transactions through the sect’s platform.

Later on, the sect found that many disciples were not conducting transactions through the official channels within the sect, but rather secretly organized trading associations for private transactions.

Which cultivator doesn’t have secrets? Some might have acquired precious artifacts from battles that couldn’t be publicly disclosed and needed to be dealt with secretly.

Similarly, some might have suddenly acquired a mysterious Pill Formula, or high-quality pills through a mysterious Immortal Path inheritance.

Such items did not fare well on the sect’s platform as they attracted unwanted attention and scrutiny. Thus, private trading associations were gradually established.

These associations attracted more and more participants of higher and higher levels, with many Foundation Establishment disciples and even elder stewards taking part.

It was only after a Golden Core stage cultivator suggested doing so that markets independent of the sect’s platform began to appear.

These markets served as semi-official channels that allowed for relatively confidential trading and ensured the safety of sect disciples, while also benefiting the sect. Why wouldn’t anyone approve?

That’s how these Inner and Outer Peaks markets came to be.

The eighteen markets of the Outer Peaks, and the three markets of the Inner Peaks, have been running smoothly for all these years.

For the past three years, Han Yi spent most of his time in the Outer Peak market, only entering the Inner Peak market three times.

Each time, he prepared thoroughly and was extremely cautious.

He knew taking such risks was dangerous, but on one hand, he had no choice but to do so since most disciples in the Outer Peak market were at the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivating, and few could afford the pills he was selling.

On the other hand, the breakthroughs in Spirit Void Finger, Sword Control Skill, and Light Body Technique significantly increased his overall combat power, giving Han Yi a certain level of confidence.

Inside a courtyard in Little Lingxu Peak.

Han Yi finished his practice and stood up. A translucent pale-red panel appeared before his eyes, showing his current status.

“In the blink of an eye, it’s been seven years since I was transported here.”

“The breakthrough to Qi Cultivation Stage Six is not far away. I believe I will be able to break through in another year.”

Han Yi took a deep breath, and his inner heart held its arrangement and confidence in the following cultivation practices.

“Also, the Battle of the Demon Cave has ended not long ago.”

“Fortunately, I spent all my fortune exempting myself from participating.”

Thinking back to the results of the Demon Cave battle Han Yi had heard, he still felt the lingering fear.

Not long ago.

The expedition forces returned.

Initially, more than half of them were killed or wounded.

Among the three Golden Core Supreme Elders, two had fallen. Out of twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators, only eight survived. As for those in the Qi Cultivation stage, it was even more tragic – out of 3,400 Qi Cultivators, only 800 survived.

This battle was like a debilitating injury to the Xuandan Sect.

In fact, not just for the Xuandan Sect.

The battle had dealt a crushing blow to the entire Daqian Immortal Cultivation World.

In that battle, even a powerful Spirit Transformation cultivator from Yujing Mountain sacrificed his life to destroy a Heavenly Demon God that was descending. In addition, many Nascent Soul stage cultivators had met their demise.

All of this information was gathered by Han Yi from the market’s rumors.

From these stories, Han Yi could sense the fierceness of the Demon Cave battle.

It was out of his control whether he would live or die as a small Qi Cultivator at Stage Five.

Spending money to prevent disaster was well worth it.

Three years ago, Han Yi would feel that he had been scammed by Fan Mo, but now he was somewhat relieved.

In the face of life and death, being scammed for spirit stones was acceptable to him.

After a brief clean-up, Han Yi took his pills and headed straight for Small Guanhai Peak.

Over the past three years, he had maintained a relationship with Smail Guanhai Peak, considering it as one of his connections.

The incident three years ago made Han Yi realize that merely hiding away was not enough – it was necessary to always pay attention to the sect’s news.

One must be prepared even when trying to keep a low profile.

Personal connections, channels, and information were what Han Yi had been consciously expanding over the past three years.

Upon arriving at Small Guanhai Peak, Han Yi saw the person waiting for him and was slightly startled, finding it somewhat unexpected.

The person who came was the still voluptuous Yan Ru.

And this time of reunion, it had been three years since they last met.

Three years ago, Yan Ru was selected and joined the Demon Cave expeditionary army, and she was fortunate to survive the constant battles.

“Han Junior Brother, long time no see.” Yan Ru’s face was even colder than three years ago. Although she was greeting him, Han Yi felt an invisible murderous aura emanating from her.

This murderous aura was accumulated from continuous fighting for three years and was unconsciously emitted, not specifically targeting Han Yi.

Han Yi’s inner heart trembled.

Those who could survive three years of fighting in the Demon Cave were all ruthless characters..
