Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate Chapter 102 – Alchemist

After they exited the cave, Lin An and the two demon witches came into a vast field.

Several strange, human-shaped creatures were going about their activities passively. There were all kinds of weird creatures. Some had the body of a human and the tail of a snake. Others had two horns on their heads. While some had the lower body of a horse, and the upper body of a human.

The creatures worked hard in the field. Several of them were making use of their pure physical qualities, while others used spells to move the soil or water over a large area.

In the distance, there were a few neatly arranged houses. It appeared that there were several creatures cooking in the houses, and green smoke was rising from the chimneys.

At first glance, the scene looked like a paradise.

At that moment, a demon with goat's horns on its head rushed over when it saw the nascent soul demoness and said anxiously, “Leader, you're finally back. There's a problem in the pill refining room!”

The nascent soul demon witch immediately frowned. “What happened?”

The goat-horned demon timidly replied, “The refinement of the vitality strengthening pill and the soul-nurturing pill failed!”

The nascent soul demon witch was shocked, and she hurried in the direction of the alchemy room.

When she arrived at the alchemy room, she saw that it was a complete mess. As she scanned the room, she noticed that the alchemy furnace seemed to have exploded.

When Lin An saw that the nascent soul demon witch didn't look well, he comforted her, “Don't worry, it's just alchemy. I know how to do this! Let me help.”

“You?” The nascent soul demon witch and the goat-horned demon looked at Lin An together as they sized him up.

“You know how to refine pills?” The golden core stage demon witch, who had been following behind, asked in surprise.

Lin An had practiced his pin refining skills under Qian Yi's guidance, and he immediately answered proudly, “Of course. I'm an alchemist.”

The golden core stage demon witch was instantly suspicious. In the cultivation world, cultivators who focused on refining pills normally didn't have strong combat abilities. After all, refining pills took too much time.

However, the goat-horned demon's eyes lit up when he heard Lin An's reply. He quickly said, “That's great. You can be our alchemist's apprentice. With an alchemist's apprentice, the success rate of refining pills will definitely increase. Who knows, you might even succeed.”

After the goat-horned demon spoke, he pulled Lin An and rushed towards a house in the distance.

Lin An and the other three demon creatures quickly arrived in front of the small house. The front door of the house was spotlessly clean, and the outer walls were painted white. It looked like an ordinary human house.

However, the many carrots hanging under the eaves added a foreign flavor to the small house.

The alchemist that the goat horned demon had mentioned was a rabbit-eared girl who was about eight years old. She looked like the typical little sister next door, obedient and cute.

After a brief nod, Lin An and the rabbit-eared girl immediately entered the alchemy room.

The room was very spacious, and there were many medicinal materials and wooden shelves on the walls.

In the middle of the alchemy room, was a bronze alchemy furnace. The cauldron had three legs, and its surface was carved with dense runes.

It gave off a mysterious and ancient aura, and it was clear that the alchemy furnace had bonded with many of its previous owners.

Lin An was eager to try it. He looked at the rabbit-eared girl and said, “Why don't you let me try out my alchemy first?”

The rabbit-eared girl responded in surprise, “You know alchemy too?”

In an instant, the expressions of the three onlooking creatures changed.

The golden core stage demon witch hurriedly interjected and said, “Damned monkey! Don't do anything rash. Alchemy is not something to be trifled with.”

“I know. It's precisely because it can't be trifled with that I want to step up and prove my skills.”

“All right then. Let the monkey refine it first,” the rabbit-eared girl immediately conceded.

However, when the three onlooking creatures heard this, they were immediately scared out of their wits.

Alchemy wasn't a craft to be trifled with. Not to mention, the ingredients used to concoct the pills were very expensive, and once an alchemist failed to control the cauldron's temperature, they could only concoct a useless pill.

The rabbit-eared girl was looking to concoct a two-star medicinal pill. However, if the cauldron exploded, then the impact of the explosion could destroy a small part of the tribe.

Therefore, when the rabbit-eared girl was refining pills, at least one nascent soul stage demon had to stand guard outside. If there were any mistakes in the alchemy, they could immediately control the damage with their cultivation. Otherwise, the alchemist would have already died.

Now that the rabbit-eared girl had actually agreed to let Lin An refine the pills first, the other creatures were naturally afraid.

The nascent soul stage demon witch immediately glared at Lin An. “Damned monkey! Don't mess around!”

After everyone expressed their doubts, Lin An had no option but to give up on showing off his alchemy skills and let the rabbit-eared girl have the first try.

The rabbit-eared girl walked to the alchemy furnace and waved her small hand lightly. Instantly, a flame rose from the bottom of the furnace.

Beside the alchemy furnace, there were over ten sets of neatly arranged medicinal ingredients. The rabbit-eared girl randomly picked up one ingredient and was about to throw it into the alchemy furnace.

“Wait, what are you doing? The medicinal herbs need to be cleared of impurities first, or else, the success rate of the pill will be very low.”

Lin An hurriedly opened his mouth and interrupted her.

Immediately, the rabbit-eared girl had a confused look on her face.

The three onlooking creatures were also stunned for a moment, and then, they furrowed their brows.

“Monkey, don't cause trouble. Your only job is to control the fire properly,” the golden core stage demon witch scolded Lin An through gritted teeth.

The nascent soul stage demon witch also looked at Lin An and said, “Monkey, these pills are really important to me. I don't have time to waste anymore. Tomorrow, I'm going to the lightning pool of the myriad clans. Can you stop interfering?”

The other creatures actually thought that Lin An was causing trouble, and he instantly became furious.

Could it be that they were brainless? They couldn't even understand such a little logic. The rabbit-eared girl wanted to throw the medicinal ingredients into the pot and stew them randomly. She didn't care about the order, the purity, or the dosage of the ingredients.

Lin An felt that it would be a miracle if the success rate of the pill was high.

At that moment, the rabbit-eared girl, who had fallen into confusion after Lin An spoke, suddenly blinked her eyes as she exclaimed in shock, “He seems to be right! I've reflected on it carefully, and removing the impurities first should be able to increase the success rate to a certain extent.”

The three creatures besides them were stunned, and they all stared at Lin An.

He immediately smiled in relief. No wonder Qian Yi had chosen him as her personal disciple. He was really smart.

However, the rabbit-eared girl's next sentence made the smile on Lin An's face disappear.

“But I don't know that method. Moreover, we don't have many medicinal herbs in our hands right now, so we won't be able to carry out any experiments.”

Even though the rabbit-eared girl didn't know his method, Lin An was certain about his earlier point.

He immediately wanted to speak, but the three other creatures had obviously been paying close attention to his actions. Just as he opened his mouth, their warning eyes glared at him.

“Don't worry. I've always been one hundred percent successful in everything I do. There won't be a problem if you listen to me.”

Since he could see the success rate of his every action, Lin An's words were completely true. However, in the ears of the three creatures, they immediately turned into boasting.

“How can there be a one hundred percent success rate in this world? A one hundred percent success rate is something that even a nine-star alchemist wouldn't dare to say. You're only at the peak of the golden core stage, but you think you are already stronger than those alchemists who are far above you?”

“What if you fail?”

Instantly, Lin An replied with little thought, “If I fail, I'll swallow feces and commit suicide!”

The three creatures were instantly embarrassed.

“If I fail, I'll swallow feces and commit suicide?”

The monkey was quick-witted, and it seemed that he was confident in his abilities.

Considering the various miracles that Lin An had shown along the way, the nascent soul stage demon witch decided to give him a chance.
