Chapter 2175: Chapter 2171: I Don’t Need It
Tang Ming kept quiet; doing was always better than talking.
Personally gathering those Immortal Elixirs from the Medicine Field, Tang Ming left more than half the seeds for the Nine-headed Goose Deer to plant.
The Nine-headed Goose Deer told Tang Ming that ripening Immortal Elixirs required consuming the power of the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod. With the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod’s current level, they would have to wait at least five hundred days between each ripening.
Tang Ming was a bit surprised, but he still nodded. He had already learned to distinguish these Spiritual Medicines; with their medicinal properties, any Elixir refined from them would definitely be top-grade.
"There’s a guest outside."
The voice of the Nine-headed Goose Deer sounded by Tang Ming’s ear. That sensation of heaven and earth spinning came over him again. Tang Ming instinctively closed his eyes.
When Tang Ming opened his eyes, he was standing beside the wooden table in the room.
The door creaked open, and Guo Muye walked in from outside. "Hall Master, something’s happened."
"Old Guo, sit down and talk. What happened that has you this anxious?"
Tang Ming frowned at Guo Muye’s anxious look, then asked.
Guo Muye let out a long sigh, then said, "It’s still the trouble that fellow Zeng Qing left behind. That guy was good at Hemostatic Pill, but now our stock of Hemostatic Pills is far too low. I heard he’s become a wanted man, so all those Demon Hunting Teams have rushed over to buy Hemostatic Pills, but Vice Hall Master Zhao Jian doesn’t know how to refine them."
Tang Ming nodded. He had also thought of this matter Guo Muye mentioned. Although Hemostatic Pills were a kind of low-level Elixir, successfully refining them seemed rather difficult.
Thinking of those Immortal Elixirs he had picked in the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod, Tang Ming took a deep breath. "Old Guo, have someone send over a batch of Immortal Elixirs and an Alchemy Furnace. I’ll try refining some Hemostatic Pills. If I can’t refine them, then we’ll think of another way."
"Hall Master, you know Alchemy?"
Guo Muye looked at Tang Ming in surprise.
Alchemy was generally something only those in Elixir Cultivation did; the Cultivation Technique Tang Ming practiced looked more inclined toward the Immortal Doctor path.
In fact, only Tang Ming knew that the Qiankun Nine Palaces Technique could not only cooperate with the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod’s tripod flames for Alchemy, it could also be used for Artifact Refining.
The key point was, Tang Ming really needed this batch of Immortal Demons; he could place them inside the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod to help it recover its strength.
After all, the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod had been without a master for so many years; the power it once had had already dispersed.
"Isn’t it perfectly normal to know Alchemy? Go, go. Even if I can’t refine Hemostatic Pills, I can still refine an Elixir with a similar effect."
Thinking about the Alchemy matter, Tang Ming waved his hand at Guo Muye.
Although Guo Muye was not optimistic about this, he still nodded. After all, Tang Ming was the Tower Master. Since Tang Ming had spoken, he could only do as Tang Ming said.
Guo Muye’s efficiency was very high. Before long, someone brought Immortal Elixirs and an Alchemy Furnace to Tang Ming’s residence.
"Hall Master, Vice Hall Master Guo asked me to bring this Alchemy Furnace to you. This is the Alchemy Furnace left behind by the old Hall Master. What Elixir do you plan to refine? Do you need me to assist you?"
A youth in a silver-white Immortal Doctor’s Robe looked at Tang Ming with a grin and spoke.
Zhou Mo was a Deacon of the Tianpo City medical hall. His strength was not great, but he believed himself to be quite talented.
At the very least, he had once assisted Zeng Qing. While helping Zeng Qing tend the furnace fire by the side, he had secretly learned Zeng Qing’s Hemostatic Pill.
However, in Alchemy, besides the control of heat, the Elixir Recipe and other things were also extremely important. He tried refining it several times himself, but he never succeeded.
This time, Guo Muye had him deliver Immortal Elixirs and the Elixir Tripod. It was obvious that the new Hall Master Tang Ming wanted to refine Elixirs.
Alchemy was a complicated task. A single person doing Alchemy had to expend too much energy; generally, an assistant was needed. Since he had previously served as Zeng Qing’s assistant, he might as well stay and help Tang Ming oversee things.
Tang Ming raised his eyebrows slightly. This person really talked a lot. Your status is lower than mine, yet you’re putting on the posture of pointing and directing everything. If I needed your help, would I not say so?
"I don’t need anyone to assist me. You can sit here. I’ll go to the Alchemy Room to refine pills. Once I’m done, you can take the Elixirs to Vice Hall Master Guo."
With a wave of Tang Ming’s hand, the Elixir Tripod and Immortal Elixirs were all stored into his Storage Ring.
Watching Tang Ming leave, Zhou Mo’s face darkened a bit. This Tang Ming really was just as Zhao Jian had said—a very hard person to approach.
Am I really going to throw in with that fence-sitter Zhao Jian?
Tang Ming did not bother with what Zhou Mo was thinking. It wasn’t that he didn’t want help; it was that, at the moment, he simply didn’t know how to refine Elixirs. Especially the issue of the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod’s tripod flames—he definitely didn’t want anyone else to know about that.
The Alchemy Room in the Mansion had been abandoned for a long time. As Tang Ming walked in, a wisp of Immortal Energy flashed through the room; that was the Dust Removal Array within the room activating.
This sort of Formation was usually only set up in the Inner Treasury and other very important places, since the Dust Removal Array consumed Immortal Energy from the city’s Main Array.
Tang Ming hadn’t expected that the Alchemy Room of the medical hall’s Hall Master would actually have a Dust Removal Array.
He walked to the center of the room, where the rack for the Pill Furnace stood, with some fire-resistant black iron tree poles stacked off to the side.
Tang Ming was in no hurry to do Alchemy. Instead, he took out the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod, and the feeling of losing gravity instantly acted on his body. Tang Ming was drawn into the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod once more.
Because of the previous two times, he had already grown used to this feeling.
"You’re going to do Alchemy. These Immortal Elixirs are not bad; they’re enough for the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod to advance to the Second Level."
The Nine-headed Goose Deer had somehow already taken those Immortal Elixirs out of Tang Ming’s Space Ring.
"It’s good if it can level up. But I still need your help—how do I refine Hemostatic Pills?"
Tang Ming took a deep breath, then asked.
"Heh heh, Hemostatic Pills are just the most Low Level of Elixirs. As the master of the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod, how can you be refining such Low Level Elixirs? Wait a bit, I’ll get you a compendium of Elixir Recipes. If you’re going to do Alchemy, you should be refining the Elixirs recorded in there."
The Nine-headed Goose Deer gave a leap and dove into the nearby lake.
Before long, the surface of the lake began bubbling, and nine goose heads emerged. The body of the Nine-headed Goose Deer surfaced, one of its heads opening its mouth to spit out a Jade Scroll. "This thing counts as a reward for the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod advancing to the Second Level."
"A reward? Looks like you’ve still got a lot of good stuff."
Tang Ming’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he still reached out and took the Jade Scroll first.
