After transmigrating, I cultivated immortality by smelling the scent.

Chapter 32 Greetings, Senior Brother Ye!

Under Xiao Lele's guidance, Ye Xiaobai quickly mastered the processing of another spiritual herb.

Seeing Ye Xiaobai's remarkable learning ability, he couldn't help but praise him: "Junior Brother Ye, you learn very quickly!"

"It's all thanks to Senior Sister Xiao's excellent teaching."

"I think you have a special talent!" Ye Xiaobai smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

The daily consumption of spiritual herbs in the alchemy room is enormous, which requires alchemy apprentices to handle a large amount of spiritual herbs. Previously, due to the shortage of alchemy apprentices, Xiao Lele and the others were busy to the point of exhaustion every day.

With Ye Xiaobai joining the team and becoming more familiar with processing spiritual herbs, the process became much easier for everyone thanks to their combined efforts. The other alchemy apprentices praised Ye Xiaobai highly, except for Wei Yize, who disliked him.

Besides Xiao Lele's guidance, the other alchemy apprentices also enthusiastically shared their experiences in processing spiritual herbs with Ye Xiaobai, from which Ye Xiaobai benefited greatly. The second day ended smoothly, and Ye Xiaobai had successfully mastered the processing of nine kinds of spiritual herbs.

On the third day, Ye Xiaobai successfully mastered the processing of twenty-three kinds of spiritual herbs. On the day of the bet, when Wei Yize saw Ye Xiaobai successfully complete the processing of twenty-three kinds of spiritual herbs, he felt like he was dreaming, and then shouted loudly, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" "I only mastered ten kinds of spiritual herbs in three days!" "Junior Brother Wei, have you forgotten something?" Ye Xiaobai said, looking at the excited Wei Yize.

"I..." Wei Yize was momentarily speechless. After a while, he came to his senses and whispered, "Hello, Senior Brother Ye!" His voice was so soft it was barely audible. Then, Wei Yize awkwardly ran out.

Just as Ye Xiaobai was about to chase after him to tease him, Xiao Lele quickly stopped him, saying, "Junior Brother Ye, that's enough. Don't make things awkward for everyone." "Senior Sister Xiao, I was just joking with Senior Brother Wei," Ye Xiaobai said awkwardly. "I also heard that Junior Brother Wei has an older brother on Spirit Sword Peak, whose cultivation has already reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. He's also a fiercely protective brother; be careful he doesn't cause you trouble."

"Senior Sister Xiao, it's nothing, it was just a joke. You don't need to cause me any trouble, do you?" Ye Xiaobai said, slightly embarrassed.

"I hope so. But you've already mastered the processing of twenty-three kinds of spiritual herbs. Keep up the good work, and once you've mastered thirty, you can start refining pills."

"Okay, Senior Sister Xiao, I will try my best."

Next, in addition to completing his daily processing of spiritual herbs, Ye Xiaobai continued to familiarize himself with and master the processing of new spiritual herbs.

After completing his day's work as an apprentice alchemist, Ye Xiaobai officially finished processing the thirty-five kinds of spiritual herbs.

Back in his cave, Ye Xiaobai continued practicing the steps of processing spiritual herbs in his mind. Recalling Xiao Lele's guidance, he remembered what Xiao Lele had told him about his brother Wei Yize, and realized he might have unknowingly offended Wei Yize.

Ye Xiaobai suddenly realized that he had offended someone so soon after arriving at Lingdan Peak. Was he trying to impress Xiao Lele? Or was he becoming arrogant after his cultivation level had increased so much? "The tallest tree in the forest catches the most wind." Ye Xiaobai decided it was best to keep a low profile and focus on developing his strength discreetly for now.

As for offending Wei Yize, the sentence above has a second part: "However, standing out alone in the forest, one can ultimately defy frost and snow, displaying one's indomitable will." Ye Xiaobai is not someone who is afraid of trouble.

After figuring things out, Ye Xiaobai first continued practicing the mental cultivation of spiritual herbs, and then cultivated for a period of time. Having stopped taking pills recently, his cultivation had made almost no progress. Ye Xiaobai was also eager to learn how to refine pills and achieve pill-making freedom.

Early the next morning, Ye Xiaobai went to the alchemy room. Today he could officially begin learning alchemy, and Ye Xiaobai was particularly excited, after all, he had taken an important step towards becoming an alchemy master.

"Good morning, Senior Sister Xiao!" Ye Xiaobai greeted Xiao Lele warmly as soon as he saw her.

Good morning, Junior Brother Ye.

"Can you teach me alchemy today?" Ye Xiaobai asked excitedly.

“Okay, this is the first type of pill a pharmacist apprentice learns to make—the Bigu Pill. Here’s the recipe; familiarize yourself with it first.” Xiao Lele said, handing Ye Xiaobai a piece of paper with the Bigu Pill recipe written on it.

Ye Xiaobai took the formula and immediately began to examine it carefully.

Sesame seeds, spirit rice, white honey, green leaf fragrance, and low-aged spirit milk... more than a dozen ingredients need to be combined to refine the Bigu Pill.

Ye Xiaobai has mastered the pretreatment of most materials, but he still needs to study the specific operations when refining pills.

Half an hour later, Ye Xiaobai had mastered the method of refining the Bigu Pill. Then he just needed to watch Xiao Lele demonstrate it. Ye Xiaobai felt that he would be able to learn it very soon.

"Senior Sister Xiao, I'm pretty familiar with it now. Could you please demonstrate how to refine the Bigu Pill?" Ye Xiaobai said to Xiao Lele.

"So fast! Let me demonstrate for you!" Xiao Lele stopped what she was doing and said in surprise.

After speaking, Xiao Lele took out a small alchemy furnace about one foot tall from her storage bag and began preparing the materials.

"Senior Sister Xiao, wasn't I supposed to be refining pills in the alchemy furnace outside?" Ye Xiaobai asked curiously.

"The alchemy furnace outside is a grade three furnace, which is beyond the control of us mere apprentices. Only grade three alchemists can barely control it," Xiao Lele explained patiently.

"Then what grade of alchemy furnace do you have in your hand?"

"A first-grade alchemy furnace, all ready. The materials are almost prepared. Take a good look."

After Xiao Lele finished speaking, she first activated the alchemy furnace with spiritual fire, and then began to add materials.

First, add spirit rice and sesame seeds and heat for a period of time. Then add low-aged spirit milk and heat it with spirit fire for a period of time. Then slowly add other ingredients.

Finally, after all the materials are added, it is necessary to control the size of the spirit fire and the spiritual energy of the materials.

Before long, the aroma of the Bigu Pill began to waft out. Xiao Lele then controlled the spiritual fire to gradually diminish, and once the fire disappeared, she quickly opened the pill furnace.

With a "bang!" sound, the aroma of the Bigu Pill immediately filled the air, and it was unexpectedly so refreshing.

"Senior Sister Xiao, you're amazing! You can actually refine a mid-grade Bigu Pill!" The alchemy apprentice next to her praised her.

Ye Xiaobai was also taken aback, and exclaimed, "Senior Sister Xiao, you're amazing!"

"It's alright, I was lucky to get a few mid-grade fasting pills," Xiao Lele said modestly, then turned to Ye Xiaobai and said, "Junior Brother Ye, did you see clearly?"

"I saw it clearly!" Ye Xiaobai was a little excited and wanted to try it out himself as soon as possible.

"Then give it a try!"

"Okay." After saying that, Ye Xiaobai suddenly remembered that he didn't have a pill-refining furnace yet, so he said, "Senior Sister Xiao, I haven't bought a pill-refining furnace yet, can I use yours?"

"Take it!" Xiao Lele didn't have any objections.

Ye Xiaobai took Xiao Lele's alchemy furnace, placed it beside him, confirmed the process of refining the Bigu Pill, and began to prepare for the formal alchemy process.
