Leveling System of Acquiring Skill From Books

The area was not very large. There were all kinds of medicinal herbs placed on the surrounding walls, and the room was filled with a thick medicinal fragrance.    

However, Ye Chen shook his head silently. Although the medicinal herbs had been processed and dried, they had been exposed for a long time. They might have lost their efficacy.    

They did not even know the most basic way to preserve medicinal herbs.    

In the middle of the room was a huge bronze furnace with numerous spirit pattern engraved on it.    

Ye Chen didn't know much about the spirit pattern, so he couldn't tell the quality of the Pill Furnace for the time being. But at least this Pill Furnace should be enough. After all, Ye Chen could still sense its ancient aura.    

Zhiruo gave him many herbs, but she did not give him directions.    

To be honest, even Ye Chen didn't know what kind of pill was suitable for transcending the tribulation.    

Ye Chen could only read in the system, and he prepared to read a lot today. It would be best if he could successfully extract the skill to refine a Tier 3 medicinal pill.    

"System, search for a pill suitable for transcending the tribulation."    

"Search successful. The system will provide 320 sets of pill formula. They are: Great Qing Lightning Avoidance Pill, Taiqing Thunder Control Pill, Sanqing Thunder Extinguishing Pill, and Profound Thunder Purification Pill."    

Looking at these pill formula, Ye Chen began to filter them out.    

Ye Chen first eliminated pills that were beyond his ability. For example, Sanqing Thunder Extinguishing Pill and Profound Thunder Purification Pill were all Level 4 and above medicinal pills. He was unable to extract these skills within a day.    

After some consideration, Ye Chen prepared to refine the Taiqing Thunder Control Pill. This was because this kind of pill not only matched Ye Chen's current level, but it could also draw the Heavenly Thunder into his body to temper his body.    

Although this process would be somewhat painful, there were many benefits to it.    

As long as he persisted, his body would be as firm as a rock.    

"I want to refine a Tier 3 medicinal pill. Arrange out the books that I need to read."    

"Arrange them successfully. You can read them yourself."    

After that, Ye Chen entered the reading process.    

The people outside were filled with curiosity.    

When Zhiruo was refining the medicinal pill previously, there was a huge commotion every time. Why was Ye Chen so quiet?    

Elder Yuan, Zhiruo and the rest quietly snuck into the refining room and watched from afar. They were afraid of disturbing Ye Chen.    

They saw Ye Chen sitting cross-legged on the ground. He did not concoct the pill at all.    

"Elder Yuan, what is Demon King doing? Why hasn't he started concocting pills yet?" Zhixue asked in a low voice.    

"Before concocting the pill, he needs to concentrate and calm his mind. He needs to throw all the complicated emotions out of his mind in order to concoct the best pill." Zhiruo explained by the side.    

Everyone nodded silently.    

It turned out that concocting pills was so complicated.    

"Then how long does Demon King need to concentrate? I can see that his breathing is orderly. Could he have fallen asleep?"    

"No way. This is the highest realm of focusing and calming! I'm sure his skill in alchemy must be very superb."    

Everyone nodded in agreement.    

After all, alchemy was an unfamiliar skill to them.    

No one knew how to operate it.    

The next second.    

Ye Chen's heavy snores suddenly sounded.    

Everyone's faces turned pale.    

Zhixue continued, "You also said he wasn't sleeping, he was snoring."    

Everyone looked at Zhiruo.    

What she said was so magical, but it turned out that he was really sleeping.    

Zhiruo secretly clenched her fists.    

Damn Bick.    

I told you to go to sleep and rest for a while, but you insisted on refining pills.    

You must be tired to the point of falling asleep now.    

But how am I supposed to behave myself in front of them?    

Just as Zhiruo was thinking about how to help him hide the truth, Ye Chen opened his eyes.    

Furthermore, his temperament had undergone a huge change. His eyes seemed to be flickering with a bright light.    

"See, he's not sleeping at all."    

"Amazing. I almost believed that little girl Zhixue."    

"That's right. How could Bick sleep at such a critical moment?"    

Actually, Ye Chen had really fallen asleep.    

He split his mind into two, one to rest, and the other to read.    

Otherwise, his mind would not have been able to withstand so many books.    

And just now, Ye Chen had successfully extracted the skill of a rank 3 pill.    

He ignored the people who were secretly watching and started refining pills.    

Ye Chen waved his hand, and all the herbs were placed in front of Ye Chen by a pair of invisible arms. There was even a slight flame that kept burning the herbs.    

"What is Bick doing? How can he concoct pills like this?"    

Elder Yuan cried out in shock, his heart aching.    

These medicinal herbs were his lifeblood.    

Why did Ye Chen destroy them like this?    

Although he didn't know alchemy, he knew that alchemy required the medicinal herbs to be placed into the Pill Furnace. Why did he burn them out of thin air?    

Zhiruo saw that Elder Yuan wanted to stop Ye Chen, so she quickly said, "Elder Yuan, do not disturb Ye Chen's movements."    

"Why? He is wasting herbs."    

"No."    

Zhiruo's eyes focused and immediately unsealed the method in her heart that had been sealed for a long time, making her unable to think of it.    

"Bick should be refining the medicinal herbs and removing the dregs."    

"Isn't removing the dregs supposed to be done in the Pill Furnace?"    

"Many years ago, I seem to have read about this method in an ancient book. It is said that in order to refine a high grade medicinal pill, the process of removing the dregs must be carried out many times, and this is only the first step."    

Indeed, Ye Chen did not let them down.    

The green medicinal herbs began to transform in the weak flames. Some black residues were constantly separated from the medicinal herbs. Finally, the medicinal herbs became crystal clear, and could even penetrate the light.    

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.    

This operation of his was too magical.    

Even an old monster like Elder Yuan, who had lived for over a thousand years, had never seen such a miraculous technique.    

They didn't seem to be looking at alchemy, but at a visual feast.    

After Ye Chen refined the herbs, he placed them into the Pill Furnace.    

This step once again caused everyone to be surprised.    

"Zhiruo, why didn't Bick light the Pill Furnace? Wouldn't this increase the chances of the furnace exploding?" Elder Yuan asked.    

Even Zhiruo could not explain Ye Chen's actions.    

"I think he wants to die together with us. The power brought by the explosion of the furnace is extraordinary. I'm afraid that even if Elder Yuan was so close to us, he would still be seriously injured." Xiaowei continued to ridicule him from the side.    

"That won't happen. Demon King said that he wouldn't bear to hurt us. How could he do that on purpose? How could we possibly understand an alchemist of his level? Otherwise, aren't you and I both alchemists now? "    

Zhixue's words caused Xiaowei to be speechless.    

The crowd was not as evil as she thought. They were just surprised by Ye Chen's actions.
