Chapter 242: Moon-Slashing Sword

For a moment, Master Huang's face flushed red. He looked carefully at the recipe written by Su Chen and found that Su Chen's recipe was not made up at all. It not only contained some contents that he knew, but also some contents that he didn't know.

Moreover, Master Huang used his experience as a third-grade alchemist to infer these contents and found that they were all correct, and compared with the Silver Star Pill recipe he knew, the content written by this young man was more scientific.

In other words, this young man mastered a more correct and perfect Silver Star Pill recipe than himself.

But just now, he suspected that the other party was here to steal his recipe?

At this moment, Master Huang was so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into it.

He stabilized his emotions and said to Su Chen in shame: "My friend, it was my fault just now. I shouldn't have judged you by your appearance and mistakenly thought that you were here to steal the recipe."

As he said that, in order to show his sincerity in his apology, Master Huang bowed to Su Chen at a 90-degree angle, and his head almost bent below his knees.

If this scene were seen by outsiders, their eyes would probably pop out. Master Huang was a third-rank alchemy master. Even the Prince of Anyang was not qualified to ask him to perform such a great ceremony. But now he was willing to perform such a ceremony for a fifteen-year-old boy.

"Master Huang, please stand up."

Su Chen waved his hand. After all, he was not without fault in what happened just now. Asking for the recipe right away was indeed easy to cause misunderstanding.

"Master Huang, do you want to increase the success rate of refining the Silver Star Pill?" Su Chen asked.

Master Huang nodded: "The last time I refined this Silver Star Pill, the first steps went smoothly, but when it was finally condensed, there was a problem, which led to the failure of the final pill, and the quality was less than ten stars. Later, I repeatedly calculated that the probability of successful condensation was no more than 50%, but I don't know where the problem was."

"Tell me your refining process in detail."

Su Chen knew that for an alchemist of Master Huang's level, if you directly instilled the correct refining method into him, he would not be easy to accept. Only by pointing out the mistakes in his method can you really convince him.

There is nothing wrong with Master Huang. Anyway, Su Chen has proved that he has mastered a better recipe for the Silver Star Pill. It is impossible for him to steal the recipe. Master Huang immediately told his refining process in detail, including every process and detail.

After listening, Su Chen said directly: "You should have a problem with the temperature when you were refining. The main material of this Silver Star Pill is Silver Dragon Grass. Although its stems and leaves have low melting points, its roots have a very high melting point. In order to pursue stable refining, you have always used warm fire, so there will be problems with incomplete melting of the main material. This should be the reason for your failure in refining."

Su Chen's words were like a flash of lightning, striking Master Huang's mind, and instantly making Master Huang suddenly enlightened.

Master Huang had been troubled by this problem before because his knowledge level was not at that level, so he could not fully understand this point on his own.

Now that Su Chen had revealed the secret, Master Huang had a sudden realization in his mind.

"Yes, yes, that's it, why didn't I think of it before?"

Master Huang was so excited that he immediately started to refine the Silver Star Pill on the spot.

"Master Huang, wait a minute, you are not yet calm, so it is not suitable for you to refine the pill. I suggest you sit in meditation for a while and calm down first."

Master Huang was extremely surprised. This young man had such a strong insight, and every sentence seemed to contain a kind of alchemy truth. How could this be the knowledge that a young man should have?

He sat cross-legged for a while, calmed his mind, and then started to refine the pill.

Master Huang had actually practiced the steps of refining the Silver Star Pill in his mind many times. Therefore, he was not unfamiliar with these steps.

It was not until the step of condensing the pill that Master Huang became nervous again.

This time, Master Huang had already raised the temperature of the refining flame as Su Chen said, but he didn't know whether the refining would be successful.

However, just from the trend of this alchemy and the smell coming out of the alchemy furnace, Master Huang had a hunch that his refining this time should be successful.

Finally, the fire went out and smoke floated out of the alchemy furnace.

An alluring aroma of elixir continued to overflow from the lid of the furnace and lingered in the alchemy room.

Master Huang opened the lid of the alchemy furnace impatiently, and a dazzling Silver Star Pill suddenly appeared in the alchemy furnace.

Since the Silver Star Pill is a rare breakthrough pill, it is very common for only one pill to be produced in one furnace under normal circumstances.

"Thirteen Stars."

Su Chen took a look and immediately gave his own judgment.

Grandmaster Huang was overjoyed. At first, his wish was just to refine a qualified Silver Star Pill with more than ten stars. Unexpectedly, under Su Chen's guidance, he actually exceeded his expectations and refined a Silver Star Pill with thirteen stars.

"Congratulations, Grandmaster Huang."

Su Chen smiled lightly, but he was not jealous at all, because as long as he collected enough materials, he could easily refine the Silver Star Pill, and the quality would be higher than that of Master Huang.

"Hahahaha, this Silver Star Pill has troubled me for half a year, and now I finally succeeded in refining it. Good, good."

Master Huang was extremely happy. He was not only happy that he succeeded in refining it this time, but also that he finally mastered the correct refining technique of the Silver Star Pill, and all this was due to Su Chen.

"Friend Su, the reason why I can refine the Silver Star Pill correctly is all due to your guidance." While being happy, Master Huang did not forget Su Chen,

"I promised before that the reward for this mission is a first-grade magic weapon. Regarding this, I will definitely keep my word. Come on."

Soon, Master Huang's men brought four or five boxes.

Grandmaster Huang pointed at the four or five boxes and said, "These first-grade magic weapons are all collected by me in my life. I can't use them now. Please pick one."

Su Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The power of the alchemist is simply too great. Any first-grade magic weapon taken out would be a treasure that countless strong men would fight for. As a result, in Grandmaster Huang's place, four or five pieces were piled together to collect dust. I'm afraid those martial arts masters outside would be heartbroken if they knew about it.

"I want this long sword."

Su Chen chose the only long sword without hesitation.

This long sword was glowing green all over, and it was obviously not an ordinary item. Su Chen played with it in his hand for a while, and found two small words "Zhan Yue" engraved on the side of the hilt.
