Chapter 495: Fooled!

She had to admit that Yan yes words made sense. This was also what Beiting Huang had thought of before. She seemed to have embarked on a path where she could only advance and not stop at all. Once she stopped, she would be crushed to pieces. However, she did not feel tired. On the contrary, it was especially exciting. This would force her to move closer to the strong.
“I understand. I’ll learn from you.” Beiting Huang was convinced, but she still looked very aggrieved.
“Didn’t you say that you didn’t even have the money to buy bread in the forest of magical beasts? Your flames are very domineering. Even now, they are one of the few heavenly flames on the continent. If you learn to refine pills or weapons properly, any pill or spiritual weapon can make you rich.”
“Furthermore, Huang’er, among the immortal herbs and spiritual fruits, there are only a few rare fruits that humans can consume directly. If the rest are not refined and combined, not only will the body not be able to fully unleash the medicinal effects, but they will also leave behind aftereffects in the body.”
“If you learn it, you can refine medicinal pills for your family and friends. Wouldn’t that be great?”
It was simply coaxing a child, but Beiting Huang was still tempted. To be honest, with Yan Ye teaching her personally, she would definitely have all the skills needed to refine pills or weapons. She didn’t have to worry. However, wouldn’t this guy take advantage of her? Should she call him “Teacher?” However, before Beiting Huang could think about it, she had a deep feeling that she had really been deceived by Yan Ye.
She had never thought that there would be a time difference between this place and the Central Continent where the Night King’s Manor was located. She had clearly entered this place directly from the Night King’s Manor. And this was only after she had been refining medicinal pills day and night for three days before she remembered to participate in the freshman training. However, Yan Ye told her, “There’s no hurry. Three days outside is equivalent to three months here. I’ll call you in three months.”
This was one of the reasons.
Beiting Huang thought that it was very simple to refine pills. It was just like cooking vegetables. She threw the ingredients—oh, no, they should be herbs—into the cauldron. However, the difference was that stir-frying vegetables was a little easier. One only needed to stir-fry the vegetables until they were cooked and they could be eaten. Refining pills required the essence of the herbs to be refined with fire and finally melted into pills.
This was a metaphor Yan Ye gave her. He even encouraged her, “Back then, I was taught by an old friend. It only took me a month to learn it. I believe you’re smarter than me. You won’t need a month to learn it.”
However, when Beiting Huang memorized the pill formula and really started refining it, she realized how ridiculous Yan Ye’s words were. The reason was very simple. Only those who had experienced it knew how difficult it was to implement it.
Firstly, there was the fire control. It was extremely difficult to control the fire. Every immortal herb was so delicate. If the fire control was slightly higher, it would directly burn. If the fire control was slightly weaker, the spiritual liquid refined by the immortal herbs thrown in would be completely roasted dry. Secondly, there could not be any mistakes in the refinement order of each herb. Otherwise, if it was a Jade Spirit Pill that was to be refined, perhaps the result would be a Black Spirit Pill. The cauldron explosion was the most terrifying outcome.
Finally, during the entire process of refining the medicine, the test of mental strength would reach a scary level. Every step required mental strength, and there could not be any negligence. Otherwise, a cauldron of top-notch immortal herbs and spiritual fruits would be directly scrapped..
