[Elixir Formation: Every time the skill is upgraded by one level, the chance of becoming an elixir increases by 10%]

[Low-grade: The refined Qi Pill is 100% low-grade]

After reading the two feature descriptions, Chen Fan smiled bitterly.

It was just as he expected.

For Level 1 elixir-forming properties, the chance of elixir-forming is only a pitiful 10%.

It is equivalent to saying that after refining a furnace of Qi pills, there will basically be only one finished pill out of ten.

This is a theoretical value.

In reality, there is a high probability that after refining several furnaces of Qi Pills continuously, there will be no finished pill...

The probability of 10% is really too low.

In comparison, the description of the characteristics of inferior products is acceptable.

"Even if you are promoted to the realm of perfection, there is only a 50% chance of becoming a pill. A furnace of ten pills can produce five."

Chen Fan shook his head.

This probability cannot be said to be low, but it is not much higher.

No wonder that in the association, pulse refining warriors can only buy middle- and low-grade Qi pills.

Because even the middle and low-grade Zhenqi pills are only available in limited quantities.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in his heart. Fortunately, this alchemy technique was the worst among the four alchemy recipes in his hand, and it would get better and better in the future.

With a thought, I added 800 experience points again.

Alchemy proficiency has once again improved to a new level.

[Zhen Qi Dan: slightly successful (0%), characteristics: Dan Cheng Level 2, middle to lower grade]

[Middle-low quality pills: The refined Qi pills have an 80% chance of appearing in low-grade quality pills and a 20% chance of appearing in mid-grade quality pills]

Chen Fan clicked his tongue twice.

The characteristics of the Qi and Blood Pills are of average and low quality, and there is at least a 30% to 40% chance of them being of average quality.

When it came to the Qi Pill, it was only 20 percent.

It consumes one thousand six hundred experience points.

[Zhenqi Pill: Entering the House (0%), Characteristics: Pill Level 3, False·Medium Grade]

"???"

Seeing this new feature, Chen Fan opened his mouth slightly.

Fake·medium quality?

[Fake·Mid-grade: The refined Qi pills have a 60% chance of appearing in low-grade quality pills and a 40% chance of appearing in medium-grade quality pills]

"So that's it."

After Chen Fan read the explanation clearly, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

No wonder it's not a middle-grade elixir. It turns out that the probability of a middle-grade elixir appearing is not even half, only 40%.

Fortunately, the probability of refining the finished elixir has increased to 30%.

Chen Fan calculated in his mind that when refining Zhenqi pills at this level, usually only three pills would be formed after refining a batch of pills.

According to the description of fake and medium-grade products, the number of low-grade and medium-grade products is six to four.

Among the three, two are low-grade Zhenqi pills, worth 200,000 contribution points, and one is a medium-grade Zhenqi pill, worth 300,000 contribution points.

The price of a portion of medicinal materials is 200,000 contribution points, which can more than double the profit. You don’t have to worry about losing money, and you can make a living from it.

"It's not easy."

Chen Fan sighed.

To get started, it shouldn't be too difficult for the average alchemist.

But reaching the level of Xiaocheng is not that simple. Even for a talented person, it takes one to three years.

At this time, basically no money is made.

After all, the chance of becoming an elixir is only 20%. After refining a furnace of elixirs, there are only two finished elixirs.

The probability of inferior quality reaches 80%. Excluding labor and electricity costs, it is just a breakeven.

If you are very lucky and one of the elixirs is of middle grade, you can make double the profit. As for the two elixirs, both of which are middle grade, it is almost impossible.

In the long run, you can make money, but you can only make a little bit. If you want to truly stabilize your income, you still have to improve your alchemy skills to the level of being in a palace.

If you can ascend to Dacheng, or even the realm of Consummation, you will have a lot of money at your feet, and you only need to bend down to pick it up.

"continue."

Chen Fan invested 3200 experience points.

Seeing the new features of the skill bar, he breathed a sigh of relief.

[Zhenqi Pill: Entering the House (0%), Characteristics: Pill Level 4, Medium Grade]

[Mid-grade: The refined Qi pill has a 60% chance of appearing in a medium-grade pill, and a 40% chance of appearing in a low-grade pill]

Yes, the pseudo word in front of "pseudo·middle grade" has been removed, and the probability of the appearance of the middle grade Zhenqi Pill has reached 60%.

Based on the calculation of the 40% chance of a furnace of Zhenqi Pills becoming a pill at this time, at least two of the four Zhenqi Pills are mid-grade Zhenqi Pills, worth 600,000 contribution points.

The other two are also worth 200,000 contribution points based on low-grade calculations. They can almost cover the cost of a furnace of elixirs, and the profit is 600,000 contribution points.

In the long run, the actual profit may be more than 700,000.

"The next level of proficiency is perfection."

Chen Fan took a deep breath.

If it's perfect, there's a chance that a high-grade Qi Pill will appear.

After consuming 6400 experience points, alchemy finally reached the state of perfection.

[Zhenqi Pill: Entering the House (0%), Characteristics: Pill reaches level 5, medium to top grade]

[Medium and upper grade: The refined Qi pills have a 70% chance of appearing in a middle grade pill, a 10% chance of a top grade pill, and a 20% chance of a low grade pill]

"10% probability."

Chen Fan smiled bitterly.

The probability is too low.

Because even in the perfect state, the probability of becoming an elixir is only 50%.

If a furnace of Zhenqi pills were to be released, the probability of a top-quality pill would be discounted by another half, and the probability might only be half a percent...

Of course, the price of the high-grade Zhenqi Pill is there, with a price of 1.2 million contribution points.

If you sell one, you will make a huge profit!

"This is the cheapest recipe. It's worth 500 points. It's not bad. Next, it's the Martial Arts Association's turn."

Chen Fan said to himself.

The one from the Martial Arts Association has been improved, and the probability of appearing a top-grade Qi pill can exceed 20%.

If integrated, the probability will be even higher.

[Zhenqi Pill (Martial Arts Association): Know nothing about it (0%)]

Chen Fan added some experience points as usual.

I saw that the proficiency level increased by 1.6%.

"fine."

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it would be doubled and it would take 800 experience points to get started.

An idea flashed in my mind.

[Zhen Qi Dan (Martial Arts Association): First glimpse of the door (0%), characteristics: Dan reaches level 1, low grade]

They still had the same two attributes, but this time, Chen Fan had a little more expectation in his heart.

[Elixir Formation: Every time the skill is upgraded by one level, the chance of becoming an elixir increases by 10%]

"Um?"

Chen Fan was stunned when he saw the description of Dancheng's characteristics.

So, the chance of becoming a pill is still 10% and has not been improved?

He read it twice more.

It's indeed 10%.

"Isn't it said that it has been improved? How come the probability of becoming a pill has not changed? Could it be?"
