Chapter 174 Perfect Quality
The second elder heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this, knowing that Elder Cheng would definitely stay in the Lin family, and he quickly invited Elder Cheng to the residence of the elders of the Equipment Refining Hall to make arrangements.
On the other side, the Great Elder was also busy entertaining guests and couldn't spare the time, so it was the Third Elder who went to pick up the White-browed Old Man.
Seeing that the Lin family was busy but not chaotic, the white-browed old man nodded slightly.
Although the Lin family has been in decline for a while, its foundation is still there, and they are quite familiar with handling these matters.
After looking around, before the old man with white eyebrows asked, the third elder explained: "The head of the family is practicing alchemy in the alchemy hall."
Although they were also very curious about how Lin Zhao studied alone in the room, they knew very little about Lin Zhao's growth path and were worried that excessive intervention would be counterproductive, so the elders tacitly supported Lin Zhao's actions.
The old man with white eyebrows raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Lin Zhao studied alchemy as a minor? Did he choose a master?"
As luck would have it, the white-browed old man himself is an eighth-rank alchemist, and is considered one of the few respected elders in the Alchemist Union of the Tianhuang Continent.
He also admired Lin Zhao very much, otherwise he would not have attended the meeting as a representative of Nanhai College after the Lin family invited him to the meeting.
You should know that Old Man Baimei's status in Nanhai College is second only to those respected elders and the president and vice president.
The third elder answered flawlessly: "The head of the family has already made arrangements."
Although no one knew whether Lin Zhao had a master or not, since Lin Zhao himself had not expressed any intention of becoming a disciple during such a long time at Nanhai College, the elders could probably guess what Lin Zhao meant.
The old man with white eyebrows was also a smart man. He didn't force it after hearing this. He laughed and said, "It seems that my Nanhai College's Alchemy Department will have another talent in the future."
Although he could not be Lin Zhao's master, he was in charge of the Alchemy Department. Lin Zhao would enter the Inner Court Alchemy Department sooner or later, so he was half a student of his.
The elders here were busy entertaining guests and taking care of things. The whole Lin family was in a lively atmosphere. It was the first time that the younger generation of the Lin family felt that this long-dormant family had burst into such vitality. They were all a little surprised and happy.
After all, they are young people, and there is nothing they don’t like to be lively.
Similarly, under such anger, the title of Lin Zhao as the head of the family was also deeply rooted among the younger generation and young descendants of the Lin family.
The older or more senior members of the Lin family were filled with emotion when they saw this scene.
When the Lin family was driven out of the land of aristocratic families, they thought that the Lin family's path would be like those aristocratic families that disappeared after their decline, and would become a foil for the rise of other families.
Unexpectedly, after a series of twists and turns, it was a former junior who brought the Lin family back to this level again.
Although this was more because the Lin family itself had the qualifications and foundation to rise to prominence, it is undeniable that without Lin Zhao, the key ladder, and the resources of Nanhai College that Lin Zhao brought back, the Lin family would have only declined.
With the support of all the elders, the admiration of the younger generation of the Lin family, and the enthusiasm of the younger generations, Lin Zhao, the head of the Lin family, has more appeal and credibility than the heads of the previous generations of the Lin family.
Of course, Lin Zhao herself was not aware of this.
At this moment, all her attention was on the furnace of pills in front of her.
As the last bit of wood spiritual power was extracted, Lin Zhao held his breath and carefully opened the medicine cauldron.
When Lin Zhao saw the three plump and round pills in the medicine cauldron surrounded by a faint milky white light, she felt like crying with joy.
Although this milky white light is not very strong, and is far inferior to the platinum-colored light that Grandma Honghu has practiced, it can already be considered a Qi-replenishing pill of perfect quality.
Lin Zhao took them out gently and looked at them over and over again.
Grandma Honghu did not stop her. She looked at the girl who was constantly fiddling with the pill in her hand and smiled slightly, as if she saw herself back then.
Almost all alchemy masters have to go through this step.
In the constant trials, we try to find the most perfect way to blend the medicinal properties and eliminate the poison, in order to achieve continuous improvement in quality.
Of course, at this step, if there is no master who can refine perfect quality pills to guide the alchemist, then if the alchemist relies solely on himself to figure this out, it may take him a thousand or eight hundred years to accomplish it.
Therefore, the alchemist's master almost always sets the lower limit of the quality of the pills they refine. As for the upper limit, it can only be determined by his own talent.
From this we can see that a good master is essential for the success of almost every alchemist.
Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh. If he still wanted to delve into the art of alchemy like he had learned talismans, it would probably take him three to five years to refine a furnace of inferior quality, first-grade Qi-replenishing pills.
This is not an exaggeration. Since Lin Zhao started refining medicine, Grandma Honghu's seemingly careless but in fact insightful guidance has really saved Lin Zhao a lot of effort in studying and thinking.
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. You already have successful experience, and your cultivation is enough to support you in refining higher quality pills. Before going to Zuhuang Continent, prepare the pills you need."
Lin Zhao was stunned for a moment, then pointed at himself and confirmed with some surprise: "I practice it myself?"
"Otherwise?" Grandma Honghu put her hands in her pockets and rolled her eyes: "Are you still planning to ask Master to refine pills below the fifth grade?"
Lin Zhao smiled bitterly: "I'm worried that I'll waste the herbs... I just learned how to make medicine."
Grandma Honghu let go of so much at once, which made her feel like her master asked her to run just as she learned to walk.
"Anyway, I'm refining it for you to eat. If you can refine a pill that can kill your current body, then I will have to call you Master."
makes sense.
Lin Zhao wiped her nose and felt relieved.
"Now go out and take charge of the situation. Your people have been carrying the load for you for quite some time."
During this period, in addition to keeping an eye on Lin Zhao's learning of alchemy, Grandma Honghu also paid attention to the Lin family's movements.
After all, she knew how much her disciple cared about the Lin family, and Grandma Honghu was willing to take care of this family if she was able.
Lin Zhao then pulled his mind away from the vast art of alchemy and asked, "How long have we been here, Teacher?"
"Well, it's been almost a month. I'm not very sensitive to time."
After all, he was locked up in that secret realm for too long.
Almost a month?
Before the retreat, the banquet was scheduled for one and a half months later, so it is estimated that time is approaching.
As luck would have it, as soon as Lin Zhao opened the door, he met the Second Elder's inquiring gaze.
When the second elder saw Lin Zhao coming out, he almost cried.
"Little ancestor, you are finally done! That master has been waiting for you for almost a month!"
Lin Zhao took a while to react before realizing that the Second Elder was talking about the Medicine Master. He quickly performed a Cleansing Technique on himself and said, "Elder, please take me there to make amends."
