First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 107: Dan Tower Rewards

"What kind of rewards are there in the Dan Tower?" Shen Mo asked curiously once again.

"Naturally, the rewards in the Dan Tower are not insignificant."

"What you can obtain depends on luck and opportunity."

A hint of embarrassment appeared on the face of the white-robed alchemist.

Although he acted like an experienced person, giving guidance and advice to Shen Mo, he was just a small character in the realm of alchemy and did not have the qualification to leave his name on the Dan Stele.

Naturally, he didn't know what kind of rewards the Tower Spirit would give. He had only vaguely heard some half-true, half-false rumors.

"I heard that Senior Liu Yuan was once bestowed with Earth Fire, pill formulas, alchemy techniques, and a collection of rare medicinal knowledge. He had everything."

Then I have to give it a try.

Upon hearing the white-robed alchemist's words, Shen Mo's heart burned even hotter.

"Dang!"

Suddenly, a bell rang within the realm of alchemy.

The alchemists who were gathered in front of the Dan Stele, boasting and admiring various records of pill refinement, were startled by the sound of the bell.

"The Elder is giving a lecture!"

"Today, Elder Wei will personally explain medicinal knowledge. He has been a third-grade alchemist for many years and has extremely rich experience. We can't miss it."

"I have to go early too, so I won't lose my seat to someone else."

One by one, the crowd left, leaving only Shen Mo standing in front of the Dan Tower.

"The Elder is giving a lecture?"

He watched as everyone left, but he had no intention of joining in the excitement.

For him, while learning from others in the art of alchemy could be beneficial, the effect was far less than the proficiency and convenience gained from personally refining pills.

Practice was the best teacher.

"Let's take a look inside the advanced Dan Tower first!"

Thinking this, Shen Mo pushed open the tightly closed Taiji stone door of the Dan Tower and walked in.

Upon entering the first level of the Dan Tower, there was a screen of light formed by converging rays of light.

On the screen, various pill information was reflected.

[Qi Returning Pill: Taking this pill can quickly restore depleted spiritual energy.]

[Clear Void Pill: This pill helps to concentrate the mind, allowing the person who takes it to quickly enter a state of cultivation.]

[Nectar Pill: This pill is exclusively for healing injuries.]

[Vitality Strengthening Powder: At the Body Tempering stage, it slightly consolidates the foundation and enhances the cultivation of Qi and blood.]

Obviously, the pills refined in the first level assessment were all low-grade primary pills.

And Shen Mo's best pill, the Vitality Strengthening Powder, Qi Returning Pill, and other pills, were among them.

Below the reflected screen, there was a pill cauldron and a furnace for alchemy.

"How can I let the Tower Spirit test the pills I refine?"

Shen Mo carefully looked and a doubt arose in his mind.

But as soon as this thought arose, a piece of information suddenly flashed in his mind.

As if he had suddenly understood something, he looked up.

Above the first level of the Dan Tower, the small statue-like Tower Spirit was emitting a faint glow.

Obviously, it could record Shen Mo's pill refining time and results.

"It's well thought out, let's get started then."

Shen Mo took a look around and quickly began to attempt pill refinement.

"Let's start with the Vitality Strengthening Powder!"

He took out a large amount of Blood Tiger Grass and Dragon Saliva Grass from his Qiankun Bag, which were used to refine the Vitality Strengthening Powder.

Originally, he had bought a lot of materials for refining the Vitality Strengthening Powder, intending to use it for long-term experience grinding.

The proficiency of the pill quickly reached the maximum level.

No matter how he refined it, his knowledge of alchemy did not increase.

So, these materials had been left unused in the Qiankun Bag.

Now, they finally came in handy.

"Ignite!"

He formed hand seals and released a spiritual technique.

"Boom!"

Instantly, the dry firewood under the pill cauldron turned into a blazing fire.

"Open the cauldron!"

He released another spiritual technique, lifting the lid of the pill cauldron.

Then, using the high temperature of the pill cauldron, he began to burn the Blood Tiger Grass and Dragon Saliva Grass to create the exclusive spiritual medicine for the Vitality Strengthening Powder.

"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!"

Shen Mo's movements were skilled and smooth.

Thanks to countless practices and productions, his expertise in the Vitality Strengthening Powder was probably unmatched in the entire Linyang Sect.

The two medicinal herbs were quickly refined and turned into liquid.

Then, Shen Mo took advantage of the heat and put the liquid into the pill cauldron to condense and shape the pill.

"Wow!"

In less than half a cup of tea's time, the Yang-boosting powder was successfully formed.

Shen Mo used the prepared medicine box to take it out.

The formed Yang-boosting powder was bright red in color and had a strong medicinal fragrance.

It was unexpectedly of excellent quality.

At the top of the Dan Tower, the statue of the Tower Spirit also recorded its achievements while Shen Mo was finishing up.

[Alchemy took less than a cup of tea's time, and the pill is of excellent quality.]

On the stage of the radiant light, the golden light was dazzling. Shen Mo directly refreshed the alchemy clearance record left by Zhao Lingyin.

A new record was born, and the Tower Spirit immediately sent a message.

"Should I leave my name?"

From this message, Shen Mo quickly understood the Tower Spirit's intention.

He hesitated for a moment and did not leave his real name.

"Currently, within the Ancestral River Sect, apart from Chen Shu and others, no one knows that I can practice alchemy, let alone that my alchemy level is approaching the second rank."

"It's better to keep a low profile and not leave my real name to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Although the record he broke was only the lowest level of pill refining on the pill monument.

But once he made it onto the list, he would definitely attract attention.

If someone wanted to find out Shen Mo's identity by searching for his name, they would definitely find it.

Shen Mo didn't want too many people to pay attention to him.

"Let's call myself Mo Shen."

After thinking it over, Shen Mo decided to reverse his name and left a rather cheesy title as a record.

The more absurd, the better. After all, no one would associate it with me.

When Shen Mo finished updating, new information appeared on the stage.

[Yang-boosting powder: No grade]

[Record holder: Mo Shen]

[Narration: Alchemy took less than a cup of tea's time, and the pill is of excellent quality.]

"I broke the record." Shen Mo looked at his name appearing on the record information of the Yang-boosting powder and a smile appeared on his face.

Within the alchemy world, pills of the same grade and type, forged by different alchemists, would have different qualities depending on their level of skill and accomplishment in alchemy.

The higher the quality, the better the effect of the pill.

The difference between the lowest and the best quality could even be several times in terms of efficacy.

According to the rules of alchemy, pill quality is divided into five categories.

The first category is defective.

Although these pills were successfully formed, their effects were poor, making them the worst quality.

The second category is average.

This is the most common quality, with no loss of medicinal efficacy due to improper refining techniques, but also no additional benefits.

The third category is excellent quality, which greatly enhances the effect of the pill.

The fourth category is perfect quality. Those who can achieve this level either have deep experience and accomplishment in refining the specific pill, or they are high-level alchemists who deliberately lower their standards to refine low-level pills.

The last category is the pill of excellent quality.

Pills of this kind have effects two to three times stronger than those of ordinary pills.

Shen Mo, with the blessing of the Heavenly Mandate Panel's experience, had already mastered the production method of the Yang-boosting powder to perfection.

This was an excellent quality product.

However, the reason he broke the record was not because of the quality.

Because the record left by Zhao Lingyin was also of excellent quality.

When the quality was the same, the Dan Tower record would depend on who could produce the pill faster.

This was also one of Shen Mo's strengths.

He relied on alchemy to accumulate wealth and obtain the resources he needed for cultivation, so he naturally put a lot of effort into efficiency.

The time recorded by the Dan Tower usually equated to thirty minutes on Earth.

And the time of a cup of tea was roughly equivalent to ten minutes.

Zhao Lingyin took fifteen minutes to refine the excellent quality Yang-boosting powder, while Shen Mo only took ten minutes.

"Buzz!"

When Shen Mo's record appeared on the stone tablet outside the tower, a stream of light descended from the light curtain.

Shen Mo reached out to catch it, and the light slowly converged, revealing a jade slip.

[Qi-merging pill recipe: Second rank]

As his divine sense penetrated the jade slip and explored it slightly, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

A second rank pill recipe!

The white-robed alchemist did not deceive him. The rewards from the Dan Tower were indeed generous!
