In the Immortal path, medicine pills are divided into four grades, Low grade, middle grade, high grade, and the top grade.
Take the Purifying Essence Pill for an example, Low-grade is the most common. mid-grade refining is extremely difficult, but the Big Sects by relying on experienced alchemists. can always make a few batches.
As for the high-grade pill, it is extremely rare to be seen, but the major sects have been passed down from generation to generation, there are always some pills stacked here and there. It can be said to be the case of accidental refining.
Finally, the Top Grade Pill.
To tell the truth, basically, no one has ever seen it. It only exists in the legends. It’s said that there were some in ancient times, the ancient cultivator’s knowledge was vast, as for now…There are also some sects who try to refine the legendary pill bearing no cost, but the result isn’t exactly rewarding.
In other words, Top grade Pills can only be found in history books.
However, this medicine pill is now the only hope for Lin Xuan. Perhaps only this legendary medicine pill capable of Defying the Heavens can make his dreams of entering the Foundation Establishment Stage without Spiritual Roots a success.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan begins the purification of the Top Grade Essence Purifying Pill!
However, unlike the situation which he has encountered before, it is necessary to know that after entering the Great Perfection realm, even those high-grade Pills can be successfully purified, but the chance is relatively low, for every ten pills, he can only succeed once.
If he only fails dozens of times, Lin Xuan can still tolerate it. After all, the legendary medicine pill can’t be that easy to refine.
But when he spent ten days, trying on nearly a thousand medicine pills, but not even one of the Top grade Pills was purified…
Ugh!
Lin Xuan sighed and looked at another scrapped medicine pill in his hand, frowning, even if his perseverance was amazing, his patience was approaching the limits.
Purifying a thousand medicine pills, but not once successful. According to Lin Xuan’s speculation, this is probably not a question of too little chance of success, but he simply has no way of obtaining it through purification.
Without Top grade Pill, he can’t succeed in his Foundation Establishment at all.
Even though he worked hard for so long, he is still only in the Spirit Condensation Stage, even if he has the ability to purify, without a Spiritual Root, can he still walk far on the Immortal Path?
Lin Xuan was a bit frustrated but soon left his low spirits behind him. There is no easy path to success in the world.
Is a Top grade Pill different from the other three grades of medicine pill, a thought appears in Lin Xuan’s mind.
So he started looking up information again, but for the current cultivators, Top Grade PurifyingEssence Pill is too ethereal, and there is no need for such a heaven-defying pill.
As long as one has a Spiritual Root and puts in a lot of effort, having a high-grade Pill is enough for achieving the Foundation Establishment stage, to those Elite Disciple, with Innate Talent, middle-grade Pill, or even a low-grade pill is enough.
He just hopes that a Top grade pill is useful to an ordinary cultivator with no Spiritual Roots.
Plus this pill has not appeared for thousands of years, except for some ancient Jade slips and other books, there wasn’t any mention of it at all.
Lin Xuan went to check a lot of information and still found nothing.
He also thought of Elder Li, but he couldn’t enter the Elite Hall. However, if he really was Ye Tian, there would be no need for such a thing as a Top Grade Pill.
With no solution, Lin Xuan was so depressed that he nearly vomited blood.
In desperation, he had to continue to take high-grade Pills to see if he could suddenly achieve a miracle and break through the bottleneck.
From time to time, using Demonic Disguising Technique to change himself to Ye Tian, and turning around next to the Elite hall, and talking to an Elder to see if he could unobtrusively inquire about the purpose of the Top grade Pill.
Lin Xuan’s ability to talk is still very outstanding, and finally deceived some of the Elders, but the result was even more vomiting blood. None of the Foundation Establishment elders knew a thing about Top Grade Essence Purifying Pills.
It’s said that records of this subject can only be found in those few famous factions, which immediately dispelled Lin Xuan’s thoughts. Although His current strength is second to none within lower-ranked disciples, but to those great sects…..
To his knowledge, Yan Prefecture is located in Zhao County, the level of cultivators here is relatively backward, and the strength of Whirlwind Cloud Valley is only a third-rate compared to the whole Cultivation World.
Even the Elders didn’t know. Lin Xuan was feeling a bit of desperation. He even thought of entering closed-door cultivation, working for 20 or 30 years, taking high-grade Pills and entering in the heart tempering path for cultivation. Although bitter, it’s better than nothing.
Unlike higher stage cultivators, the lifespan of a Spirit Condensation Stage cultivator is similar to ordinary mortals. Lin Xuan really doesn’t have much time to gamble, not to mention that as his age increases, his hopes of entering the Foundation Establishment become even dimmer.
How can he do it?
Lin Xuan never gave up hope, but it was really distressing.
However, these days, although he did not break through the bottleneck and succeed in achieving Foundation Establishment, but by putting in great effort in cultivation, his foundation became more solid, coupled with the use of pills, his body’s Spiritual Qi is becoming more and more refined.
But one day, Lin Xuan, looking like Ye Tian, ready to listen to an Elder, met Ma Tian Xiong on the way. For this Senior Brother, after seeing his face a few times, Lin Xuan’s had a good impression. This disciple was warm-hearted and the two chatted casually.
Originally, Lin Xuan did not deliberately inquire, but while talking and chatting, the topic was unintentionally dragged into Top grade Pills.
“Top grade Pill? That kind of thing is of course completely different from other medicine pills, and the ingredients are slightly different. “
“Senior Brother knows?”
Lin Xuan was stunned, then the excitement was really threatening to break out from the soles of his shoes, and it didn’t take much effort to get it. He couldn’t think of the many days he had to run around and chase the elders for questioning. Even a high-grade alchemist didn’t know but his Senior Brother did.
