Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Chapter 123: Chapter 78: Astonishing Potential! The

Alchemist of the Giant Whale Gangl_1

“How do we test?”

Su Changkong asked in return, knowing well that Giant Whale Gang inviting him to join as an Alchemist wouldn’t be as simple as just pulling him in.

Cui He took the bundle off his back, “We’ll test with pill concoction. I have a pill recipe for the Qi Increasing Pill here, along with ten sets of ingredients. Use these to concoct the pills, and we’ll judge based on the quantity and quality of

the pills produced.”

Naturally, the test for an Alchemist was alchemy itself!

“All right.”

Su Changkong didn’t hesitate overly long and responded succinctly.

The test was beneficial for him; even if he didn’t succeed, at the very least he’d score a pill recipe for the Qi Increasing Pill for free!

Cui He took out a pill recipe and handed it to Su Changkong, who received it and examined it carefully.

“The Qi Increasing Pill has a tremendous auxiliary effect on Martial Artists practicing Inner Strength, increasing True Qi, yielding twice the result with half the effort. The difficulty of concocting it is above that of the Vivid Qi Pill…

but not as much as the Qi-Blood Pill!”

Su Changkong committed to memory the ingredients listed in the recipe, the preparation methods, and the steps of concoction.

Cui He had prepared ten sets of ingredients for the Qi Increasing Pill; all Su Changkong had to do was start the alchemy and turn these ten sets of ingredients into Pill Medicine!

“Macerate the Nourishing Flower and Red Jade Beans for one hour, grind the

Jade Poria into powder…”

Once he had memorized the pill recipe, Su Changkong immediately began the alchemy process, starting to process the various ingredients.

Cui He didn’t disturb Su Changkong, not wanting to distract him, and settled down inside the estate, waiting quietly for the results of his alchemy.

“This Mr. Su must also practice Martial Arts regularly, right?

Cui He noticed some stone weights around the estate, each weighing a hundred taels or more, which were used by Martial Artists to test and tram their arm strength, he thought to himself.

Su Changkong was physically strong, and there was a masculine Martial Arts vibe about him.

Cui He figured that Su Changkong must be a Martial Artist too.

But this wasn’t surprising to him; Cui He had heard Su Changkong mention that he was from Cattle Village thousands of miles away, and after wandering outside for years, in this era without any Martial Arts for self-defense, it would be impossible to survive out in the world.

“Failed…”

Several hours later, from the Pill Refining Room, a burnt smell wafted out, signaling unsurprisingly that the first batch of Qi Increasing Pills had failed to concoct!

“The timing for adding the Fuling Powder wasn’t quite right.”

However, Su Changkong was prepared for this mentally. He recalled the entire process of this alchemy session in his mind, taking note of all the deficiencies and mistakes.

After doing this, Su Changkong opened the Pill Furnace to start concocting the second batch of Qi Increasing Pills.

Again, failure, then the third batch, the fourth batch…

Despite the continuous failures, Su Changkong became more proficient in concocting the Qi Increasing Pill.

Finally, on the fifth batch, a faint medicinal fragrance emanated from the furnace!

“Success!”

Su Changkong felt a surge of joy in his heart. Upon opening the Pill Furnace, he found a fragrant pill, although he had only made one pill, this success proved he was on the right track. With more practice and rectification of mistakes, he could steadily increase his success rate!

Indeed, out of the remaining five sets of ingredients, some failed, but two more batches also produced pills.

Three days later, Su Changkong looked at the bottle with a total of seven pills in his hand and took a deep breath, “Finally done…”

From ten sets of materials, only seven Qi Increasing Pills were concocted; definitely a loss, but Su Changkong believed that as his Alchemy improved, he could certainly increase this success rate!

“This Mr. Su must at least be at the Internal Strength Realm… His vigor is robust, able to fire the furnace ten times in three days; he definitely meets the standard in this aspect,” Cui He nodded to himself, having stayed in the estate for three days.

The Giant Whale Gang valued the age of recruited Alchemists highly ; being young meant potential, and robust energy. Some elderly Alchemists, despite their high skills in Alchemy, couldn’t withstand the heavy workload of Alchemy; concocting some Pill Medicine could take days without rest, which wasn’t something an ordinary person could endure.

“Mr. Su, I’ll take this bottle of Qi Increasing Pills with me first. I’ll hand them over to experienced members of the Gang for assessment, and you’ll have an answer within three days,” Cui He said as he took the bottle of seven Qi Increasing Pills from Su Changkong.

Assessing whether Su Changkong’s results met the Giant Whale Gang’s standards needed professionals. Cui He had to take these pills back to the Gang.

“Sure, Mr. Cui, safe travels.”

Su Changkong nodded and walked Cui He to the door.

“Now, I just need to wait for Cui He’s news.”

Su Changkong wasn’t as nervous as he had imagined; he continued to practice Martial Arts as usual.

For Su Changkong, joining the Giant Whale Gang as an Alchemist was a good opportunity, but even if the test didn’t pass, it was just a matter of spending more time!

The headquarters of the Giant Whale Gang was located near the Blue Rain Sea. Within the compound of the Giant Whale Gang, numerous buildings stood tall, with disciples of the Gang wearing uniform black outfits with blue patterns moving to and fro.

As one of the top factions in Ink Forest Prefecture City, the strength and heritage of the Giant Whale Gang were unquestionable, with many powerful individuals within the Gang!

“Lord Cui.”

As evening approached, Cui He returned to the Giant Whale Gang, greeted respectfully along the way by fellow disciples, and he nodded back in response to each one.

He made his way to a secluded part of the Gang’s base. The place was lush with flowers and plants, with many medicinal herbs growing around, and in the center was a Pharmacy, surrounded by water in a beautifully serene environment.

Cui He approached the Pharmacy and gently knocked on the door.

“Come in,” called an elderly voice from inside..
