After listening to Qin Che's question, Li Zhu immediately knew what Qin Che's problem was: "You probably didn't use the Qi Gathering Pill to cooperate with your cultivation."
Qin Che blurted out and asked: "What is the Qi Gathering Pill?"
Qin Che indeed did not use the Qi Gathering Pill. Qin Che did not even know what the Qi Gathering Pill was.
When Lizhu heard Qin Che's question, she immediately took out a gorgeous kit from her body.
A crystal clear pill was poured out from the kit.
Li Zhu handed the pills to Qin Che and then explained:
"This is Qi Gathering Pill."
"If you want to quickly condense the true energy after the Qi Gathering Stage, you must use Qi Gathering Pills as a supplement during practice."
"When the loss of true energy is serious, we should also use the Qi Gathering Pill to quickly restore the lost true energy."
Qin Che took the Qi Gathering Pill, looked at it carefully, and smelled it.
But I didn’t smell any medicinal scent.
Lizhu looked at Qin Che's movements and explained: "When the Qi Gathering Pill was being prepared, the alchemist used a special technique to seal the medicinal fragrance inside with beeswax.
This prevents the medicinal properties from being lost and reducing the quality of the elixir when not in use."
After listening to Li Zhu's words, Qin Che used his true energy to gently scrape away the thin layer of beeswax on the surface.
Immediately, the strong medicinal fragrance inside came to your face.
The medicinal fragrance entered Qin Che's body with his breathing, and just by circulating in his lungs, Qin Che could confirm that the Qi Gathering Pill was not poisonous.
After trying to inhale more medicinal energy, Qin Che felt that the amount of true energy in his body had increased, almost as much as he had practiced for a day.
Swallow the whole elixir, and the power of the medicine will be released in your body immediately.
Qin Che operated the breathing method, and the rich medicinal power in his body was transformed into strands of true energy directly following the breathing method.
Just this pill directly increased Qin Che's breathing technique progress by 3%.
One pill is equivalent to Qin Che’s fifteen days of cultivation.
The effect of the Qi Gathering Pill made Qin Che very satisfied, so Qin Che took the initiative to ask: "Where can I get the Qi Gathering Pill?"
Qin Che understood very well that Prince Yan did not prepare a Qi Gathering Pill for himself.
After all, Prince Yan’s goal is not to train Qin Che into a master, but to keep Qin Che alive first.
So just prepare all the top-level resources in the Zhuang Realm.
That's why Qin Che asked: Where can I get the Qi Gathering Pill?
Li Zhu put the golden brocade bag in her hand into Qin Che's hand: "There are twelve Qi Gathering Pills in the bag. You can use them first. I will send you some in a few days."
After finishing speaking, Li Zhu added in a panic: "Don't worry, these pills are not poisonous."
Looking at Lizhu's appearance, Qin Che felt funny in his heart.
Princess Lizhu was obviously psychologically affected by herself.
But this is not the time to soothe Lizhu’s soul.
"I still want to know where I can get the Qi Gathering Pill."
Qin Che accepted the tip, but Qin Che still wanted to know the channel.
Qin Che feels safer only when he has something under his control.
Li Zhu did not fail to inform Qin Che, but told Qin Che truthfully: "There are two ways to obtain the Qi Gathering Pill.
One is the supply from the imperial court, which has alchemists who can refine Qi Gathering Pills.
All masters who serve in the imperial court can receive five Qi Gathering Pills every month.
If there are additional tasks, there will be additional Qi Gathering Pill rewards.
This was also an important means used by the imperial court to recruit masters.
After all, the Qi Gathering Pill requires hundreds of precious herbs, and alchemists who can refine the Qi Gathering Pill are also very scarce.
Only a huge institution like the imperial court can stably provide a large amount of Qi Gathering Pills.
The second way is from the private sector.
One is to buy. There are some powerful merchants who sell Qi Gathering Pills.
For example, Sihai Trading Company, the number one trading firm in the dynasty, sells Qi Gathering Pills.
Ten thousand taels of gold a piece, as long as the gold is not silver.
However, due to quantity issues, it often takes several months to queue.
In addition to Sihai Commercial Bank, there are also some large commercial banks that also sell Qi Gathering Pills, but the price is much more expensive than Sihai Commercial Bank.
The advantage is that you don’t need to register your identity and the waiting time will be shorter.
There are also some masters who trade Qi Gathering Pills privately, but the amount is very small and not enough to be considered a means of acquisition."
After a pause, Lizhu added: "Of course there is another method, but most people don't know how to use it.
You can collect all the medicinal herbs yourself, and then find some folk alchemists who can refine Qi Gathering Pills and ask them to refine them.
But in this case, you first need to spend time looking for medicinal herbs, and then you need to pay five thousand taels of gold for refining.
When the elixir is finally formed, the alchemist will take away half of the elixir. If it fails, all losses will be yours.
It's good that this method is successful, because a batch of elixirs can produce at least ten pills, and you still make money by taking half of them.
The disadvantage is that it is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and risky, so not many people choose this method."
After listening to Li Zhu's introduction, Qin Che pondered for a while and asked, "Do you have the recipe for refining the Qi Gathering Pill?"
"I already told you that the Qi Gathering Pill I gave you is not poisonous." Princess Lizhu said to Qin Che aggrievedly.
Qin Che was a little helpless after hearing Lizhu's words, because he didn't want to know whether it was poisonous or not.
Qin Che just wanted to take a look at the pill recipe, and then try it to see if he could refine the Qi Gathering Pill.
Although you can also spend money to buy the Qi Gathering Pill yourself, Li Zhu also said so.
Even if you spend money, you still have to wait for several months.
This is not worth the time.
As for the imperial court, Qin Che never thought of relying on them.
The less people know about your becoming a Grandmaster, the safer you will be.
Since Lizhu had such suspicions, Qin Che deliberately said with a straight face: "I'll have to see it myself to know whether it's poisonous or not."
Lizhu felt that she had to act quickly if she wanted to reconcile the misunderstanding with Qin Che.
Otherwise, the misunderstanding between myself and Qin Che will only get deeper and deeper.
Taking a deep breath and adjusting her mood, Lizhu said: "I don't have the prescription now, but I can go out and get one for you later, and then you can compare it yourself."
"Is this recipe easy to get?"
Lizhu replied: "The prescription of Qi Gathering Pill is not a secret that must be kept. The medicinal materials in the prescription are complicated.
If you want to refine it, you need a master alchemist who is proficient in alchemy skills.
So even if it really spreads, it won’t have much effect.”
Qin Che nodded, and then said to Li Zhu: "Then you can help me bring back some simple prescriptions."
Lizhu asked in confusion: "Why do you want a simple recipe?"
Qin Che replied without even thinking: "I want to see if you lied to me."
