Chapter 347: Opening The Furnace for Pill Concoction
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The Earthfiend True Fire blazed intensely in the furnace. Sparks flew about and heatwaves were generated. Within it, a strange aura shone as though everything beneath the earth could be refined by it.
The temperature in the furnace skyrocketed, the light from the fire illuminating the surroundings.
This furnace was passed down from ancient times. It was a divine object used to refine pills. At this moment, under the flames of true fire, it gradually revealed its true appearance.
The runic inscriptions engraved around the furnace were now lit up, revealing patterns of the four elements: fire, wind, earth, water. There was also an imprint of the eight trigrams beside it.
Its spiritual energy was greatly enhanced like it had been awakened from an ancient slumber. It kept on radiating a divine glow.
The fires of the furnace also intensified by 30%, emitting smoke.
Wa, wa, wa...
These four were spirits formed from herbs and were afraid of fire. Not to mention that this was the Earthfiend True Fire. Thus, they cried in fear and ran out.
“A.I., watch them!” Feng Lin couldn’t set his heart at ease, hence, he gave the command.
The flying shuttle was too large, and the four spirits were still too young and didn’t know much. They shouldn’t touch anything that might harm them.
One must know that every part of the four spirits was incomparably valuable.
“Yes, captain!” the A.I. instantly replied, manifesting a figure made from lightwaves and chasing over.
Only then did Feng Lin set his heart at ease as he concentrated on his alchemy.
But this time, what he was attempting to concoct wasn’t the Dustfall Immortal Pill.
During the contribution exchange, he especially paid attention and discovered that the medicinal ingredients to concoct a Dustfall Immortal Pill were worth 20,000 contribution points. The price was considerable.
Only now did Feng Lin understand how much advantages had he obtained.
Zhao Yue`e was actually willing to give him ten portions of medicinal ingredients to refine the Dustfall Immortal Pill in addition to the 50,000 contribution points. It meant that she had spent a total of 250,000 contribution points.
This favor was too great!
Feng Lin silently calmed down. He would find an opportunity to repay her later.
It wasn’t his style to forget about the favors others did for him.
But the most important thing now was for him to deal with the incoming school opening ceremony.
The Great Wall University was a militarized school. When the school started, there would be compulsory military training for up to three months. It was said that the training was extremely harsh and was so tiring that it had the nickname of devilish training.
When Zhao Yue`e parted ways with him, she specially reminded him to make his preparations earlier. The military training would put a huge burden on a cultivator’s body.
When someone at Zhao Yue`e’s strength was saying such a thing, Feng Lin naturally would heed the advice.
With the Earthfiend True Fire, Feng Lin was no longer satisfied with refining the most basic pills. He wanted to try his hand at an even higher-level pill.
The Dragon-Tiger Exchange Fetus Pill!
Dragons were the kings of water; tigers were the kings of the jungle.
This pill contained the energy of dragons and the sharpness of tigers, transforming them into a pill fetus. It was able to greatly boost the blood and qi of grand cultivators, exchanging their bones and marrows for a higher-graded one. In the inheritance of the Furnace Alchemy Sect, this was considered a top-grade spiritual pill.
And when converted to the medicinal potency levels of genetic potions, Feng Lin estimated that it should be at least a high-martial grade genetic potion.
Dragon python tendon, black tiger heart.
Feng Lin took out the two main ingredients. These were ingredients harvested from powerful universe creatures, and they were the best ingredients to concoct the Dragon Tiger Exchange Fetus Pill.
Alchemy was an art that required incomparable precision. Feng Lin closed his eyes and heightened his focus, thinking back to the alchemy techniques he learned, running his mind over them again and again until he was absolutely sure that he would make no mistakes before he moved into action.
Activate furnace!
Feng Lin pointed his finger at the center of his brows. A purple-colored fire seed appeared in his palm, forming a resonance with the blazing fire within the furnace. He could control the flames of the true fire now.
Dragon python tendon, black tiger heart!
He didn’t waste words and tossed both ingredients in.
Under the power of the true fire, the ingredients were melted into two puddles of liquid: one green and one black. They exuded a faint bloody aura.
ANG!
ROAR!
Using true fire for the refinement, the puddles soon turned into the vital essence of dragons and tigers, which emitted roaring and howling sounds.
The essence of dragons and tigers fused. Gradually, a spiraling greenish-black pill was formed; it looked like a Taichi sphere.
Pure crystal water!
A strange liquid shining with a crystalline light was mixed into the pill, diluting it, not allowing the essence to be overly concentrated.
If not, if the refinement was too over the top, it would become as tough as a rock. Even if one consumed it, they wouldn’t be able to digest it.
True alchemy pills were one with the origin, a fusion of softness and toughness. If it was tougher than skulls, how could one consume it?
Blood-drink Grass, Astral Water, Purple Jade Marrow...
Feng Lin’s hands flitted about and placed the various ingredients into it based on a fixed procedure and timing.
The temperature of the fire increased in intensity until the flames turned incandescent, reaching an extreme point.
The embryonic form of the greenish-black pill now became smoother around the edge as the medicinal properties were fused together, completely freed from all impurities.
Only the last step of refinement remained.
Enhance the fire!
The flames were concentrated in the center of the furnace, filling up the entire space.
Close the furnace!
Feng Lin clapped his hands, causing the furnace to close up and lock the power of fire within.
The slightly rough edges of the pill smoothened even further from the grind of the true fire.
The medicinal fragrance gradually faded away as the medicinal potency rapidly locked itself inside the pill. It wouldn’t be long before the pill was complete.
The closer it was to the end, the more he couldn’t relax.
The refinement method was different for every pill, so one needed unique techniques.
The Dragon Tiger Exchange Fetus Pill far surpassed the Origin Cultivation Pill. It needed to transform 365 times with the aid of the true fire.
Feng Lin grew increasingly vigilant. His hands weaved about like butterflies flying through the garden. He used his fire control art to precisely control the intensity of the fire, as his hands moved in a unique cadence.
The fire in the furnace responded to his will, intensifying and weakening according to his control. The energy provided by the true fire continuously seeped into the medicinal pill.
A smooth and round golden pill gradually formed, shining with treasure light. Just a glance at it was enough to tell that it wasn’t an ordinary object.
Pill collection!
Upon performing a hand gesture, the furnace opened up and a golden alchemy pill floated over silently, landing in his hand. Under the light, one could even see the image of a dragon and a tiger moving about. It felt like the pill was a living thing.
This pill was clearly extraordinary. Only when one’s body was exhausted to the extreme would it be able to unleash its greatest effect. Right now, the time wasn’t right to consume this pill.
Feng Lin carefully kept it. He then sat down and meditated to regulate his breathing. He waited until he regained his concentration and mental energy before he opened his furnace again.
After attempting a few times, other than the first time where he had succeeded, he wasn’t as lucky and failed three times in a row. But in the end, he persevered and managed to concoct five of these pills.
These were his greatest trump cards.
Since his cultivation base was insufficient, he would use alchemy pills to make up for the short-fall.
(Mhm, nothing is wrong...)
“Reporting to captain, the repairing process of the flying shuttle is now at 100%, and it is ready for traveling through the universe,” the A.I. updated.
His alchemy succeeded and the flying shuttle was fully repaired.
Everything was prepared and he only needed to wait for the school to start.
BOOM!
All of a sudden, a signal appeared on the flying shuttle’s scanning apparatus.
Feng Lin hurried to the control cabin.
The space twisted as distortion occurred, and a gigantic metal shuttle suddenly floated out. Its shape was like a deep-sea whale, only far larger in comparison.
“Great Tang Flying Shuttle is back with the best candidates of the cosmos universities’ exams. Requesting permission to enter the Great Wall.”
The Great Wall University suddenly went into an uproar.
All the exams of the cosmos universities finally ended. The last batch of exam candidates, also the most outstanding of them all, was finally escorted here.
The school was about to start!
