Half a month later.

When Leng Ruoxue threw the herbs into the pill furnace again and did every step to the extreme, for some reason, she had a premonition that the chance of success this time was very high, so after condensing the pills

and tempering, her eyes stared intently at the pill furnace…

The freak and the little old man, who felt that something was amiss, were also attracted. However, neither of them dared to make a sound and also stared at the pill furnace intently like Leng Ruoxue.

After a while, the unique fragrance of the pills emerged from the pill furnace. The three of them knew that the pill refinement was successful, but whether it could reach the intermediate level was unknown.

“Xue’er, open the pill furnace and take a look!” the little old man urged impatiently.

… L…” Leng Ruoxue found herself a little nervous. After all, she felt very good this time, but she was also a little scared.

“Don’t be afraid! If it’s not an intermediate one, at most, I’ll refine it again!” the little old man comforted.

However, just as the little old man finished speaking, suddenly, “Boom!” Several loud bangs sounded in the sky above the secret room. This sudden sound shocked the few people who were not mentally prepared.

“What’s this sound? Is there thunder?” the little old man said in surprise.

“Grandpa Du, this secret room is made of ten-thousand-year-old black iron. You can’t even hear thunder,” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly.

However, just as she finished speaking, the pill furnace shook uneasily, as if it was very scared.

“Big Sister, it’s pill tribulation,” Qing Jue said via voice transmission from the bracelet.

“Pill Tribulation? Qing Jue, are you sure?” Leng Ruoxue sent a voice transmission in surprise.

“Yes.” Qing Jue nodded with certainty. Usually, pills or artifacts that could cause heavenly tribulation when successfully refined were not ordinary.

“Qing Jue said that the lightning just now was a pill tribulation.” Leng Ruoxue told the little old man and the freak what Qing Jue told her. After speaking, she opened the pill furnace. However, as soon as she opened the

pill furnace, the deep blue pill lying in the middle of the furnace obediently ran into her hand. At this moment, a message came from her mind. Advanced antidote pill!

Adv… Advanced? Leng Ruoxue was speechless. She had concocted it countless times, but she only wanted to concoct an intermediate antidote divine pill. However, who knew that the intermediate didn’t succeed and

instead concocted an advanced pill. This was too unbelievable. However, she was also a little depressed. Why couldn’t she concoct the elementary and advanced pill formulas for the intermediate antidote?

“Pill Tribulation? Lass, I heard from Grandmaster that only pills above the intermediate stage of the divine pill might have a pill tribulation. Could it be that the pill you just refined has reached the intermediate stage of

the divine pill?” the little old man said with a face full of joy. Uh! This pill was a little different from the previous one.

However, the dark blue divine pill in her hand became unhappy before Leng Ruoxue could answer the little old man!

The pill floated from Leng Ruoxue’s hand and came to the little old man. It circled him a few times and then knocked into his forehead. After doing all this, the pill slowly returned to Leng Ruoxue’s hand and rubbed

against it coquettishly.

“Xue’er, it actually hit me?” the little old man said dumbfoundedly. Boohoo… He was actually attacked by a pill. No one would believe it if news of this got out!

“Uh!” Leng Ruoxue was a little speechless seeing the pill’s human-like behavior. Alas! Why was this pill so spiritual!

“Grandpa Du, it’s an advanced divine pill. It’s unhappy that you said it’s intermediate,” Leng Ruoxue explained helplessly as she looked at the protesting pill in her hand.

“Ah! It’s actually advanced. No wonder. Boohoo… I don’t know,” the little old man said aggrievedly.

“Grandpa Du, it said it forgave you,” Leng Ruoxue translated for the pill. Alas! She didn’t know how she knew the meaning of a pill, but she knew.

“Uh! Lass, does it understand what we mean?” The little old man’s face was full of surprise. This was really strange every year, especially this year!

“Il understand. It also said that it doesn’t want to be eaten,” Leng Ruoxue said with a slight headache. She couldn’t help muttering to herself as she looked at the pill in her hand that kept acting coquettishly. Could this

still be considered a pill?

“Then what should we do? We still have to use it to submit the mission!” the little old man said awkwardly. However, he was hit by the divine pill again as soon as he finished speaking.

“Ah! It hit me again?” the little old man said gloomily with a long face.

“Grandpa Du, I’m refining an intermediate divine pill!” Leng Ruoxue said. Qing Jue had also reminded her not to use this pill to complete the mission.

“Okay, then refine another one!” the little old man hurriedly said, not wanting to be beaten again.

The dark blue pill circled around them happily and then obediently stayed in Leng Ruoxue’s hand after hearing what they said.

Leng Ruoxue sent the pill into the bracelet and handed it to Qing Jue for safekeeping. Then she continued to concoct the pill resignedly.

However, Leng Ruoxue’s pills became more and more convenient since she refined this advanced divine pill. She only refined it more than ten times, but the success rate of the intermediate divine pill actually reached

50%. Moreover, another advanced divine pill appeared, but the pill tribulation did not descend again.

“Lass, your success rate is really strange!” the little old man, who had been watching by the side, said speechlessly.

“Yes! Seems like that pill is indeed different. I didn’t succeed in refining an intermediate divine pill once before it, but the success rate later became so high.” Leng Ruoxue looked at the intermediate pill in the furnace

and was also surprised. Well! This success rate was really abnormal. It was only more than a dozen times, but the success rate was actually above 50%. Who knew how many alchemists would want to die if news of this

got out!

“Hehe, no matter what, we can finally leave this place,” the little old man said happily. His disciple had yet to refine an intermediate divine pill, but the success rate of an elementary divine pill had improved a lot. Well,

he was very satisfied.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue nodded. She didn’t expect to stay here for almost a year..
