Chapter 177: Entrustment to Refine Pills

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After leaving Dianyuan Mountain, Wei Binglin and Wei Zicheng seemed to be greatly affected.

Xu Ning noticed this so he took the initiative to ask the two of them to accompany him to another place.

Afterwards, they strolled around Yunying City a few more times until it was evening, before returning to the Wei Estate.

At night.

Xu Ning was lying on a recliner in the courtyard, looking up at the night sky.

There was a small wooden table filled with fruits next to the recliner.

Xu Ning initially had a maid serving him, but he sent her away.

“Little Friend Xu Ning!”

Wei Xingfeng’s voice came.

Xu Ning quickly got up, and Wei Xingfeng strode in.

“Sorry to bother you so late.”

Wei Xingfeng apologized first.

“It’s fine.”

Xu Ning waved his hand. “Why is Family Head Wei looking for me?”

Wei Xingfeng smiled. “Let’s talk about that later. Before that, I have to thank you.”

“My Grand Elder used his own blood and managed to break the seal.”

Wei Xingfeng’s expression was energetic. “After observing the dao seal, he has gained a lot of insights. Now that he has begun his seclusion, he may be able to break through to the void realm eighth stage.”

“This is a good thing, congratulations.”

Xu Ning cupped his fists.

“This is all thanks to you. If you hadn’t given the dao seal to the Wei family, we might not have had a true intent realm martial artist for decades.”

Wei Xingfeng’s tone was full of joy.

“By the way, Xu Ning, I came here because someone requested me to.”

Wei Xingfeng paused for a second and spoke.

“Oh? By whom? What for?”

Xu Ning asked.

“I was asked by Zhou Weichen to ask you to refine a type of medicinal pill.”

Wei Xingfeng explained, “This Zhou Weichen is an elder of the Zhou Family in Yunying City. He is a true intent realm martial artist, and has a good relationship with me.”

“Today, he took the initiative to come to me and ask our Wei family if we have contacted a powerful alchemist. Because recently, the medicinal pills you had asked us to sell were excellent in quality and efficacy. After Zhou Weichen discovered this, he took the initiative to contact me.”

“Because we are familiar with each other, I didn’t hide anything from him. I told him that we did know a powerful alchemist. And after he learned about this, he wanted to request you to help him refine a kind of medicinal pill.”

Wei Xingfeng said while observing Xu Ning’s expression, afraid that Xu Ning would show dissatisfaction.

But Xu Ning’s expression was normal.

“What pill does he want to refine?”

Xu Ning asked.

He didn’t mind exposing his identity as an alchemist. With his current strength, there was no need to hide anything.

“He wants to refine a kind of pill called Common Intent Pill.”

Wei Xingfeng replied.

“Common Intent Pill…”

Xu Ning nodded silently after hearing those words.

This Common Intent Pill was a type of pill that helped in one’s advancement. It was mainly used to break through to the common seal realm, and had some effect for breaking through to the true intent realm.

It was extremely difficult to refine any medicinal pills used for advancement, and the raw materials were difficult to obtain.

For example, ordinary alchemists were not qualified to refine the Common Intent Pill, and high-level alchemists normally only had a 30% success rate.

Even with Xu Ning’s Life Pill Sutra that had been advanced to the seventh level and the help of his pill furnace, his success rate was only about 50%.

“How about it, Xu Ning. Can you refine this Common Intent Pill?”

Wei Xingfeng asked tentatively.

“I can refine it, but how many sets of raw materials can he provide?”

Xu Ning thought for a moment and asked.

Wei Xingfeng frowned when he heard the words. “Zhou Weichen did not tell me. He said that if you are willing to, he will bring the raw materials to you personally.”

“Is that so…”

Xu Ning replied, “Then let him come to me tomorrow.”

Since Zhou Weichen was Wei Xingfeng’s friend, Xu Ning was willing to help him.

“Then thank you very much, Little Friend Xu Ning!”

Wei Xingfeng smiled when Xu Ning agreed.

Wei Xingfeng knew very well that Xu Ning had only agreed to help Zhou Weichen because of him.

“In that case, I will take my leave. Tomorrow, I will bring Zhou Weichen here.”

Wei Xingfeng left Xu Ning’s villa.

The next morning.

Wei Xingfeng brought Zhou Weichen over.

Zhou Weichen was a middle-aged man in his fifties, and he looked very elegant.

“Brother Zhou, this is Alchemist Xu Ning who refined those high-quality pills.”

Wei Xingfeng first introduced Xu Ning, then introduced Zhou Weichen to Xu Ning.

“Such a young alchemist?”

After seeing Xu Ning, Zhou Weichen was obviously surprised.

Although a void realm martial artist could slow down their rate of aging, Xu Ning was definitely not more than 30 years old.

He thought that an alchemist who could refine extremely high quality medicinal pills would be very old, so he didn’t expect that he was still a junior.

This was not because Zhou Weichen did not trust young people, but because refining pills required not only perception, but also experience.

This kind of experience required years to accumulate.

“Senior Zhou.”

Xu Ning also took the initiative to greet him.

Zhou Weichen and Wei Xingfeng were friends. They were much older than him, so it was reasonable for him to call him “Senior”.

“Little Friend Xu Ning.”

Although he was surprised by Xu Ning’s age, Zhou Weichen still greeted him politely.

He did not look down on Xu Ning because Xu Ning was young. On the contrary, he valued Xu Ning even more highly.

He could already refine extremely high-quality medicinal pills at such a young age. With this ability, even if he entered the Source Sect, he could easily become a guest elder.

‘Not only is Little Friend Xu Ning highly skilled in refining medicinal pills, but his martial arts cultivation seems to be unfathomable as well…’

Zhou Weichen thought to himself after roughly estimating Xu Ning’s abilities.

He was a common seal realm martial artist so he could roughly sense that Xu Ning’s strength was above the common seal realm.

‘Even the Source Sect can’t groom such a young man…’

Zhou Weichen thought to himself. ‘If I’m not wrong, he should be from one of the big states with strong martial arts backgrounds. He probably traveled here for experience and made friends with the Wei family.’

“Senior Zhou, I heard from Family Head Wei that you want to refine a Common Intent Pill?”

Xu Ning took the initiative to ask.

“That is right.”

Seeing that Xu Ning was straightforward, Zhou Weichen quickly said, “My son is quite talented. He advanced to the void realm sixth stage attribute realm when he was 32 years old…”

When he said this, there was a hint of pride in Zhou Weichen’s tone that even he himself did not notice.

His son was a core elite in the Zhou family, and he had a high chance of becoming the next head of the Zhou family.

“However, now that seven years have passed, he is close to 40 years old, yet there is still no signs of him breaking through to the common seal realm…”

Zhou Weichen’s tone had a hint of concern for his son. “Recently, I discovered that it has begun to affect his state of mind since he hasn’t been able to break through to the common seal realm. This makes me a little worried. Therefore, I want to request for a Common Intent Pill to help him break through to the common seal realm.”

“It’s just that a pill like the Common Intent Pill is too precious. I have sought help from various parties many times, but I haven’t found one for sale. Thus, I have no choice but to gather the materials and find an alchemist to refine it.”

“However, after searching through a large number of alchemists, I discovered that their refining standards are relatively ordinary, and their success rate is generally less than 30%. I only have three sets of raw materials in my hands, so I really can’t afford to lose them.”

Zhou Weichen continued, “After searching for a while, I still didn’t find the alchemist I wanted, and I had even planned to give up. Until a few days ago, I saw the pills you refined, and was amazed by the quality of the pills, so I found my way to you.”

“Little Friend Xu Ning, please help me. You can directly ask for the payment, I have no objections.”

Zhou Weichen’s attitude was sincere.

“You are friends with Family Head Wei, there is no need for payment.”

Xu Ning waved his hand.

For others, refining medicinal pills took a lot of effort.

But for Xu Ning, it wasn’t difficult at all.

“That can’t do.”

Zhou Weichen quickly said, “How can I not pay?”

“It’s fine…”

Wei Xingfeng said, “Give the raw materials to Xu Ning and let him finish refining the medicinal pills first. You can talk about the payment afterwards.”

“Okay.”

After hearing Wei Xingfeng’s words, Zhou Weichen did not bother to bicker with him anymore. He took out the three sets of materials for the Common Intent Pill and handed them to Xu Ning.

After Xu Ning took it, he did not immediately return to the room to refine it, instead he said, “Senior Zhou, there are some things I have to say first.”

“With my personal abilities, the success rate of refining the Common Intent Pill is around 50%. But even so, I can’t guarantee that I will be able to refine one out. After all, there are many uncontrollable minute details in refining a medicinal pill.”

“It’s fine.”

Zhou Weichen said, “Little Friend Xu Ning, don’t worry about it. Even if all of them fail, it’s still fine.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ning turned around and entered the room.

“Little Friend Xu Ning is going inside the room to refine the medicinal pills?”

After seeing Xu Ning return to his room, Zhou Weichen was a little surprised. “Doesn’t he need to go to an alchemy room or a quiet and sealed off room?”

“Xu Ning’s realm is different from ordinary alchemists. He can easily clear his mind without being disturbed by the outside world.”

Wei Xingfeng explained.

When Xu Ning was refining medicinal pills in the past, Wei Xingfeng specially prepared a sealed off room for him, but Xu Ning declined and told Wei Xingfeng that he didn’t care about the surrounding environment when he was refining pills.

“Truly impressive.”

Zhou Weichen smiled. He was very confident that Xu Ning could successfully refine a Common Intent Pill.

Inside the room.

Xu Ning took out the pill furnace.

‘Three sets of materials to refine a Common Intent Pill is not difficult for me.’

Xu Ning was more relaxed.

He opened the furnace and threw in one set of the materials.

In the past, Xu Ning would put several or even dozens of sets of materials into the furnace to refine at the same time, as it was more efficient.

But in order to increase the success rate, Xu Ning decided to do it one by one.
