Next to Qin Cheng, who was covered in blood, was the night spirit cat that he had just slain a Xuan-level spirit beast whose strength was comparable to that of a three-star spirit king.

This civet cat was the black cat he saw standing on the cliff that divides the inner and outer boundaries of Xijia Mountain.

Qin Cheng hadn't seen it since that day, but he didn't expect it to happen unexpectedly today.

The strength of the night spirit cat is comparable to that of a three-star spirit king, but its speed has almost reached the level of a five-star spirit king, and with its speed advantage, it constantly leaves large and small wounds on Qin Cheng's body with its claws, making Qin Cheng suffer a lot.

In the end, Qin Cheng was desperately slapped by his tail before killing him.

Killing this night spirit cat, Qin Cheng had a feeling of collapse, but looking at the clouds on the horizon, he showed a smiling face.

The battle on the edge of life and death really had a lot of benefits, and he faintly felt that his cultivation and sword skills were on the verge of breaking through again.

After eating a few healing pills, Qin Cheng sat next to the night spirit cat to heal his injuries.

After a while, the sun set, the clouds also dimmed, and the whole world was covered in a layer of night.

Several spirit beasts slowly approached here with the smell of blood.

When they approached within a hundred meters, Qin Cheng opened his eyes and stood up with a sneer.

These spirit beasts immediately stopped, and they didn't dare to act rashly.

The cat's eyes of the night spirit cat can be used as high-end jewelry and refining materials, but Qin Cheng felt that it was a little disgusting to gouge out his eyes, so he directly cut off the cat head of the night spirit cat with a knife and put it away.

When Qin Cheng strode away, the spirit beasts that couldn't wait immediately pounced on the corpse of the night spirit cat.

There is nothing to say about a night of cultivation.

The next day, after dawn, Qin Cheng continued to refine the Xuan-level Spirit Pill, and he had been failing in the last few days.

The pill is divided into four levels, Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, which are divided according to the intensity of the medicinal properties.

Each time the level is raised, the medicinal properties of the pill are stronger, the medicinal reaction is more intense, and the conditions required are more demanding, so the difficulty of refining will increase a lot.

The upper, middle and lower grades of each level of the pill are divided according to the number of active medicinal ingredients of the pill.

In any drug reaction, side effects are unavoidable. The side reactions produce impurities, which are generally harmful substances, so they are called erysipelas or drug poison in pills.

The active medicinal ingredients account for 50%, which is the lower grade pill.

Accounting for sixty percent, it is a medium-grade pill.

If the active medicinal ingredients account for seventy percent, it is a high-grade elixir.

Under normal circumstances, seventy percent of the effective medicinal ingredients are the best level that an alchemist can achieve. Therefore, there is a saying among the alchemists - it is the medicine that is poisonous.

That is to say, the best elixir also contains 30% of the poison.

Of course, this is not absolute, if it is a heaven-level alchemist who refines the yellow-level and Xuan-level pills, then the effective medicinal ingredients may be higher, even reaching ninety percent.

However, the pills purified by Qin Cheng are no longer on the list, and the pills he purified contain almost no impurities, and the effective medicinal ingredients have reached ten percent. But Qin Cheng still didn't know how rare this elixir with ten percent effective medicinal ingredients was, and how much turmoil it would cause.

The elixir that Qin Cheng was refining now was called Fuxiang Lingdan.

After eating this elixir, it will make the body emit a fragrant smell, which can last for up to seven days, and is one of the favorite elixirs of women. However, as a Xuan-level elixir, the price is very expensive, and only women with higher status in the Xuan-level forces in the Anxi Domain Mansion can afford to use it.

The Fuxiang elixir is recognized as the easiest to refine. There are only five kinds of refining materials for it, four of which are elixir medicinal bases, and the fifth is incense medicinal materials, which determines the fragrance variety of Fuxiang elixir.

The elixir medicinal base needs to be refined first, although there are only four kinds of medicinal materials, but because they are all Xuan-level medicinal materials, they contain many medicinal properties, and the reaction is strong, Qin Cheng has not succeeded for several days.

But Qin Cheng was not in a hurry at all, the hundreds of failures in the previous month had already made him mentally stable.

After another morning of failure, Qin Cheng calmly put away the Qinghui Dan Furnace and medicinal herbs, and walked out of the cave to practice swords and fight spirit beasts.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.

Near noon on this day, Qin Cheng finally succeeded in refining the first furnace of Fuxiang Elixir.

When he had refined the yellow-grade pill before, he had tasted it himself and determined the grade.

After refining this time, he also habitually took one and put it in his mouth.

After tasting it, Qin Cheng said to himself with satisfaction: "Hmm." Although it is a Xuan-level low-grade elixir, the effective medicinal ingredients have reached at least fifty percent, which is good. ”

Then Qin Cheng put away the Qinghui Pill Furnace and this bottle of spirit pill and walked out of the cave.

Two days ago, he found a Xuan-level spirit beast whose strength was comparable to that of a four-star spirit king, and he fought with it once without winning or losing. So he planned to go and meet this spirit beast again today to hone his sword skills.

Flying to the foot of the mountain where this spirit beast was, Qin Cheng put away the purple gold thunderstorm spirit wings, and was just about to provoke and shout, but he felt that something was wrong—there was a buzzing sound behind him.

Qin Cheng turned around and saw a large swarm of bees and butterflies flying quickly.

He was taken aback and wondered, "How can there be so many bees and butterflies?"

Ao Cang came out of the Liangyi jade space, glanced at it, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahaha! You make yourself more fragrant than flowers, can you not attract bees and butterflies?"

Qin Cheng sniffed his body, and sure enough, there was a sweet fragrance.

He instantly understood that the incense herbs he used to refine the Fuxiang Elixir were a kind of non-toxic small flowers in the forest, and the smell was sweet and greasy, and it smelled very good.

After he successfully refined the elixir just now, he threw it directly into his mouth in order to verify its medicinal efficacy, but he forgot the function of this fragrant elixir.

Qin Cheng looked depressedly at the more and more bees and butterflies surrounding him, and waved his sleeves again and again to drive them away.

But not only did the butterfly bees not decrease, but there were more and more, and some even fell directly on his body.

"Hahaha, I'm laughing to death!hahaha......" Ao Cang rolled in the air with a direct laugh.

Qin Cheng hammered his head in annoyance, and while waving his sleeves to drive away the dense crowd of bees and butterflies, he ran towards a river not far away.

Ao Cang hurriedly drilled into the Liangyi Jade space.

Qin Cheng ran to the river and plunged into the river.

The bees and butterflies chased to the surface of the river, but they could not find the source of incense, so they gradually dispersed.

Qin Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, he came out of the river and flew desperately into the cave.

Entering the cave, Qin Cheng saw that there were many bees and butterflies chasing after him, and depressedly took out a dragon slaying knife and dug out a few big stones to block the entrance of the cave, and dug some gravel to plug the gaps.

Soon there was the sound of bees and butterflies colliding on the rocks at the entrance of the cave, but no bees or butterflies could get in.

Qin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, smelled the fragrance on his body, and looked depressed, what is this, it's too embarrassing.

Ao Cang came out of the Liangyi jade space, deliberately twitched his nose to smell the fragrance, and then laughed.

"I can't go out for seven days. I can only stay in the cave. Qin Cheng said helplessly.

"Hahaha, I, Ao Cang, have lived for more than 200,000 years, and it is the first time I have encountered such a funny thing, Qin Cheng, you are so talented!" Ao Cang laughed.

"Huh. Qin Cheng couldn't help but laugh after thinking about it, and after laughing for a while, he said, "I'll refine the other pills first, and after seven days, the fragrance will be gone, and then I'll go to the Alchemist Guild in the Anxi Domain Mansion for identification." ”
