Achieving Demon Godhood from Unlocking Talents

Through the sturdy, food-grade glass, he could see the many medicinal herbs melting inside the furnace. Tiny crystals of condensed Mutant Beast Life Essence were also being tossed in.

[Basic Life Potion: Requires the Life Essence of a basic-level Mutant Beast as its core. Additionally, it requires the refined essences of plants and herbs like Red Leaf Fruit and Clear Wind Grass, as well as three types of trace mineral element crystals, all to be combined in a specific sequence...]

The recipe for the [Basic Life Potion] flashed through his mind. Following the steps, Lu Chao melted several solidified mineral element crystals into a liquid and blended them in.

Over the past ten-odd days, he had essentially memorized all three sets of Basic Superpower Potion knowledge and had made multiple attempts.

Normally, it wouldn’t have been this fast. He would have needed to split his focus to study the recipes.

But his [Flow State] talent was incredibly effective.

Just as with practicing Martial Skills and Secret Techniques on his Martial Arts path, he used the Superpower Knowledge he had accumulated over the last few days to fully grasp all the steps of the [Basic Life Potion] recipe in one go.

And now, he was just one step away from success.

"Hm?"

Soon, Lu Chao watched the liquid in the constant-temperature furnace begin to boil. The various refined plant and herb essences started to fuse with the Mutant Beast Life Essence.

Thanks to his practice of the [Fixed Star Observation Method], his Spiritual Power had grown stronger once again.

Because of this, he keenly sensed an anomaly in the fusion of the medicinal properties.

’The medicinal properties of the Red Leaf Fruit focus on strengthening qi and blood, while the basic-level Mutant Beast Life Essence I’m using this time is from a Black Fire Wolf. Their effects overlap, making it easy to lose balance.’

His gaze sharpened, but Lu Chao didn’t panic. He had already made preparations before he started the concoction process.

Soon, after he added another special plant essence, the once-volatile elements in the medicinal liquid gradually stabilized and began to fuse perfectly.

Finally, when everything was finished...

VMMMM!

His intuition finally kicked in.

Lu Chao let out a sigh of relief as a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

[Basic Life Potion]

[Quality: Inferior]

[Effect: Contains a certain amount of Biological Energy elements. When injected or consumed long-term by individuals below the Professional level, there is a chance of increasing Life Energy!]

’Success.’

He nodded to himself. Looking at the information on the panel, Lu Chao knew he had finally become a basic-level Alchemist.

Although it was only the simplest and most common Basic Life Potion, this was undoubtedly a good start.

After all, the Magic book recorded several potion recipes.

In other words, he would have plenty of opportunities to practice later on.

If he could master a few more related basic and intermediate-level Superpower Potion recipes, he could even make a push for the intermediate-level Alchemist rank.

He nodded to himself as he considered this.

Then, he poured the newly created medicinal liquid into a dedicated vial.

Lu Chao’s gaze shifted to the storage cabinet at his side.

The nearly one hundred Basic Potions that were once inside had vanished, leaving it looking rather empty.

The reason for this...

[Life Energy: 63 → 65!]

[Potential Progress: 10%]

Lu Chao’s eyes shone as he looked at the panel.

After some consideration, he had consumed most of the Basic Potions over the past ten days.

The effects weren’t that great. After all, he had already reached the Professional level. Even with a large quantity, the results were underwhelming. Basic resources could only cover his daily needs.

The same was true for his Potential Progress. Low-level energy was almost useless, showing no increase whatsoever.

The reason for the increase was mostly due to two things.

First, some of the Basic Potions were not nutritional types, but rather ones focused on other effects like the [Awakening Potion] and the [Basic Recovery Potion]. He had entrusted Zhao Yuanqing to sell these to the Prosthetic Clinic.

There were about fifty of them, and they sold for nearly 30,000 yuan. Adding that to some spare cash he had saved up, he ended up using the Patrol Department’s internal network to buy two Intermediate Nutritional Potions at a 30% discount.

The other reason was Luo Qianshan’s support.

The man had recently given him two more portions of Bone-Strengthening and Qi-Replenishing Ointment.

Although he had built up a resistance to the ointment’s effects, supplementing it by consuming nearly one hundred kilograms of High-Level Exotic Beast Meat still allowed him to make another breakthrough.

’The stronger I get, the higher the nutritional quality required from my food resources.’

’Blindly relying on quantity is the worst option; it’s far less cost-effective than using higher-grade resources of the same value... It seems I need to start making intermediate-level potions as soon as possible.’

A contemplative look appeared in his eyes. Lu Chao knew that basic-level potions had a very ordinary effect on him as well.

He wasn’t disappointed, though.

Superpower Potions were hard currency, after all. He could make use of them whether he consumed them or sold them.

And up to this point, he had indeed started to accelerate his own progress by relying on his profession as an Alchemist.

He immediately suppressed his distracting thoughts.

He downed the Basic Life Potion in one gulp.

When the GULP GULP GULP sound faded, Lu Chao patted his stomach and stepped out of the room.

...

「That evening, at the Jinshi Boxing Hall.」

THUD!

THUD!!

A low, muffled thudding echoed in the second-floor training room. Lu Chao stood in place, shirtless, with his waist lowered in a horse stance.

Having finished another security mission and returned to the Iron Ring District, he had come to the boxing hall as usual, cherishing every minute of his training time.

His body was covered in the crisscrossing red marks of a rod, visible to the naked eye. They stretched from his shoulders and back to his waist and abdomen, and down to his limbs, looking like centipedes crawling all over him.

Sweat had long since soaked his body, and his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

But even so, he gritted his teeth and held on.

"Such outstanding endurance..."

Luo Qianshan’s eyes filled with gratification as he watched the scene.

An ordinary person would probably give up in three to five days.

Even if they gritted their teeth and forced themselves to continue, they wouldn’t be able to keep up with the rhythm and would end up ruining their body.

And yet, the young man before him had persevered for two or three months.
