Chapter 405 Please, let me have one!
After entering the Nascent Soul stage, cultivation progresses slowly, but enhanced perception makes it easier to detect changes in cultivation.
Yun Lukuo usually improved his cultivation by constantly refining pills. He didn't go to the secret realm often, so his cultivation level had been stuck for a long time.
He was certain of the effect of the spiritual food from the fluctuations in spiritual energy he had just witnessed.
What StarNet said is true; the spiritual food sold in the shops can be considered high-quality spiritual food.
The wolf-tooth potato has a unique flavor, and the smell he had before staying at the Danxiu Academy was similar, equally domineering.
Wolf Tooth Potato is named after a spiritual plant, and Jiang He's elixir "Vinegar-Braised Cabbage" is also named after a spiritual plant.
Yun Lukuo couldn't help but connect the two.
If spiritual food has advanced to this level, could it be that Jiang He is teaching her students to refine spiritual food instead of pills?
Yun Lukuo immediately nipped the idea in the bud.
How could that be? Jiang He was a senior alchemist just like him. Back when he first touched the threshold of spiritual food, he spent a lot of connections and resources to obtain two spiritual recipes.
If Jiang He could refine spiritual food, it would be far too extraordinary.
Yun Lukuo suppressed this thought.

During a basic alchemy class, a group of cultivators stared blankly at the large cauldron on their table.
"What is this? A new type of alchemy furnace? It's huge."
"It seems like Senior Jiang had it moved here; it should be a prop for our class?"
Zhang Wan touched the pot in front of him with his hand.
The sudden burst of spiritual energy startled the surrounding cultivators.
"Zhang Wan didn't attend class. I was so scared! I still remember how high your flames flew last time."
"I know."
After confirming, Zhang Wan withdrew his hand:
"This is not a modern alchemy furnace, but an alchemy furnace from a thousand years ago—the alchemy pot."
"The alchemy pot? Good heavens! Is this the alchemy pot I imagined?"
"Wait, I think I found something in my image search. It's an old-fashioned image from FrogFun, and it really is the one you're thinking of."
"Dan Guo? 666, how did they come up with that thousand-year-old thing? It's been discontinued on the market for a long time."
"It's definitely been shut down. We're using new-style alchemy furnaces now. Alchemists who knew this type of furnace have been around for over a thousand years, and there probably aren't many left."
"It's a bit like hell."
"But this thing has been phased out by the market for a long time. The bottom heats up more evenly than a pill-refining furnace. Can it even be used for pill refining?"
"A hen."
"Class is starting, I'm not talking anymore."
Jiang He walked into the classroom. She had stayed up all night to change the teaching plan and reorganize the courseware.
The holographic screen displayed in front of everyone showed several large characters:
Danguo User Guide.
"The SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) has been sent to your email. This lesson will use the stoker operation instead."
Jiang He raised the alchemy cauldron, and whispers began to circulate in the space that served as both a classroom and an alchemy room.
"You guessed right. We'll be using the alchemy pot to refine pills this class. Speaking of which, this ancient artifact is over a thousand years old. Are the parts still usable? I'd really be devastated if it fell apart halfway through."
"Probably not."
"Hahaha, I'll use this thing to refine pills. After class, I'll go back and post about it. I've already thought of a title: 'The sky is falling! I'm refining pills with an old thing that's older than my great-grandmother'..."
"You're good at writing titles; I have a feeling this post will go viral."
"If you're going to post it, post it on StarNet. Given how popular our university is, it'll get you trending in no time, and you can even get a celebrity experience card."
"Haha, I wouldn't dare. I'm afraid someone will open an account on Faxing.com."
"That too."
Jiang He ignored the noise from the audience, clicked on the next page of the presentation slides, and began teaching.
The process is the same as the last time I made stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, except that last time I used an alchemy furnace, and this time I used an alchemy pot.
After the tasting time was over, Jiang He provided more detailed instruction.
Jiang He's course covers a lot of content, and to keep up with her pace, you have to concentrate. If you get distracted or lose focus for even a moment, you are very likely to miss a large part of the important content.
The cultivators of the Danxiu Academy sat in their seats, not daring to be distracted even for a moment, from the moment Jiang He began teaching.
Fortunately, all these cultivators had passed the twelve years of compulsory education and the college entrance examination to enter the Wanjue Academy, so they were considered excellent in terms of learning ability.
When Zhang Wan touched the alchemy pot again, unlike the last time when the fire affected the surrounding classmates, this time when he used the alchemy pot to refine pills according to the steps, he was much more accurate in controlling the heat than when he used the alchemy furnace.
Zhang Wan was surprised by her own changes, then turned to look at Su Ning, who was holding the alchemical pot. Su Ning was already able to proceed with the first step.
The other cultivators in the classroom also noticed the difference in the feel of the alchemy pot when using it.
Surprisingly, using the alchemy pot was not as difficult as they had imagined.
There were no unexpected incidents of parts bursting.
Perhaps it was the constant practice in controlling the heat these past few days, or perhaps it was the change in alchemy tools, but following Jiang He's alchemy formula, there was absolutely no problem in refining the pills.
Jiang He observed and recorded as she went. When she first used the alchemy pot, some unexpected situations arose, such as not being used to the way the pot was heated or spiritual plants spilling out when she tossed the pot.
Fortunately, the incident was minor and within Jiang He's acceptable range.
The revised teaching plan was feasible, so she decided to implement it.
Therefore, learning one dish in a semester should be no problem, and learning two dishes should be about the same.
If a production line could be established to sell the goods, it could generate a substantial profit.
The smell wafting out during the second half of the class was finally not as pungent as last time. As the onlookers smelled it, they first noticed that the fragrance had disappeared, and then other complicated smells appeared.
Su Ning held up the pot for a whole class period, feeling the bulging muscles in her left arm, and suddenly she understood something.
It seems that military training not only improves one's character but also has this effect. It has to be said that she is becoming more and more adept at flipping the wok.
Although the first attempt at making stir-fried cabbage with vinegar was unsuccessful, it was at least edible. Perhaps because it was the first edible product made by the recipe itself, Su Ning found it particularly delicious.
After class, he even let out a burp.
Su Ning smacked her lips as she pondered how to better integrate spiritual energy into the spiritual plants.
Like Su Ning, the cultivators at the Danxiu Academy consumed all the spiritual plants they had refined.
You know what, the sense of accomplishment from making it yourself is huge. Even if it tastes terrible, it still tastes alright.
A group of well-fed alchemists walked out of the classroom and immediately met the gazes of other academy cultivators.
Ye Yinqiu slid down to her knees in front of Su Ning, holding several spirit stones in her hands, her movements fluid and graceful.
"Please, just one, I have money."
