Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 310

Being able to control different runes to have different effects on a pill requires a very high talent and understanding of runes. As for Wang Wei, he has been studying divine runes ever since he was five years old because he wanted to create a physique for himself.

A few hours later, he opened the lid of the cauldron to look at the 9 floating pills. He used his Divine Sense to check the aura of the pill, then he frowned:

"2 Perfect Quality Pills, 5 Superior and 1 Average; it seems that I have indeed slacked off."

Alchemy Pills were not only divided based on tiers, but also quality. Every pill’s quality is divided into inferior, average, superior, and perfect. The quality is based on how much the herbs were purified, the heat control, the ratio of the herbs used, and whether the divine runes were perfectly inscribed.

After seeing the result, Wang Wei closed his eyes and reviewed the entire process of his previous refinement. With his perfect memory, he recreated the entire process in his mind without missing anything.

"I see. The fire was not controlled properly and burned a few medicinal energies. There was nothing wrong with the purification process, however, the runes were not as smooth as they should be when being engraved."

After finding the problem, he tried again. He placed the same material inside the cauldron and began refining. The purification process went well, and he paid great attention to his control of the flame.

Finally, when it was time to engrave the runes, Wang Wei’s concentration reached its peak as he used his spiritual power or spirit to make the complicated patterns of the runes.

The hard part about this process was the fact each rune was complicated and small–which meant that they required great concentration and precision. On top of that, the runes have to be made in one go without stopping, and they have to be connected.

The Blood Qi Pil is a Low-level Profound pill that only requires 3 runes. However, the higher tier pills require hundreds if not thousands of runes.

After engraving the last runes, the pill was finally refined. After checking it, Wang Wei discovered that 6 of them were of perfect quality, while the remaining 3 were only superior.

Not satisfied, he did the third attempt; this time, he finally achieved the level of all 9 perfect quality pills.

What’s more, all his attempts after that resulted in perfect quality pills. So, he tried other Low-level Profound Pills like Body Enhancing Pills, Vitality Regulating Pill, Muscle Strengthening Pill, etc.

In all his attempts, the quality of his pills was perfect, so he concluded that he was now used to Low-level Profound PIlls. However, he did not immediately refine Middle-level Profound Pills, but did a little experiment that he had planned for many years but never got to.

He placed the herbs for the Blood Qi Pill inside the cauldron again to begin the refinement. However, he did not use ordinary flame spells, he used his Cleansing-Purifying Flame instead.

The result surprised him a little. He previously thought that he had completely purified the materials, but he was proven wrong once he used the Heavenly Flame.

The purified materials increased the qualities of all the pills by one level. What that meant was that even if Wang Wei’s flame control and runes engraving could only allow him to make a superior quality pill, the purification level of the herbs immediately raised the pill to perfection.

The same goes for any average or inferior quality pills. As for a perfect quality pill, the effect of the pill would increase between 20 to 50%.

Wang Wei was surprised by this discovery and did a few more tests. The conclusion was that with the Cleansing-Purifying Flame, the lowest quality of pills that he could refine was average; it was impossible to create an inferior.

It’s either the pill concocting failed or he made an average quality pill.

After making this discovery, Wang Wei immediately tried his second Heavenly Flame: the Heavenly Destruction Flame.

Unfortunately, using the black flame for alchemy proved disastrous for him. This flame’s sole purpose was destruction, so it burned off all the herbs as soon as it came into contact with it.

It was only on the 7th trial that he managed to make an inferior quality pill, and it barely reached that standard as it was close to being labeled a poisonous pill.

Nevertheless, Wang Wei was satisfied with this discovery. He decided to continue using this flame for alchemy as a way to train his flame control. When he can make a perfect quality pill using the Heavenly Destruction Flame, his Alchemy will reach another level.
