Chapter 137 One Pill
The raging flames burning in the alchemy furnace resembled a roaring fire dragon, its body dancing wildly. The color of the flames was unpredictable, first a vivid, blood-red, then gradually turning into a vibrant orange, then a warm, bright yellow, and finally, it transformed into a pure, snow-white.
Such a magnificent and colorful scene is truly breathtaking.
When other alchemy masters in the cultivation world saw this, they were all stunned.
Because they had never seen this alchemy technique before.
No wonder, this is beyond the standard, it's like alchemy in the cultivation world. The system giving it to Qianhe is like a dimensional reduction attack in this world.
.........................
However, despite the flames being hot enough to scorch the surrounding air, Chizuru, who was inside, seemed completely oblivious to the intense heat.
Instead, he focused intently on the alchemy at hand, even going so far as to use his unparalleled Celestial Master level magic power to fully activate the fire, thereby directly isolating himself from external interference and influence.
At this moment, all his mental energy was focused on this, without any distractions.
Time passed quietly, and after an unknown amount of time, the flames in the alchemy furnace finally gradually calmed down.
At the same time, an extremely rich medicinal fragrance began to permeate the room.
The aroma of the medicine is so enticing and refreshing that it puts one at ease and invigorates the mind.
As wisps of smoke rose, the entire room resembled a dreamlike fairyland.
It is unknown how long this gap lasted.
If Chizuru hadn't mastered alchemy, she probably wouldn't have been able to control it.
However, just as the elixir was about to take shape, Chizuru noticed something amiss.
"Hmm? In this Dharma-ending Age, there shouldn't be any problems with alchemy." Qianhe said, then continued to circulate her magic power and flames.
At this moment, a slight disturbance came from inside the furnace, as if some force was resisting the fusion.
Qianhe frowned and increased her spiritual power output to forcefully suppress that force.
Finally, the strange noise disappeared, the pill successfully formed, and it shone brightly, illuminating the entire room.
Qianhe breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the precious pills that had just been made in her hand, tired but gratified.
This batch yielded a full ten!
And he still has rare and precious natural treasures.
..........................
He then resumed his work of refining elixirs.
After a short rest, Chizuru resumed her alchemy journey.
He rearranged the precious materials in the nine palaces and eight trigrams positions, adjusted the position of the alchemy furnace, and ensured that everything was in perfect order.
His hands moved faster in forming hand seals, and his incantations became more complex. A more powerful spiritual light shot into the alchemy furnace, and flames roared up, even more intensely than before.
This time, his alchemy skills were even more proficient, and he grasped the perfect timing for adding spiritual herbs and medicines each time.
The flames changed colors like a dream, from fiery white to mysterious purple, and then transitioned to a deep blue.
The medicinal power inside the alchemy furnace surged and churned, like an internal war.
One pill, two pills... The pills gradually took shape in the furnace, emitting a mesmerizing glow.
After a long refining process, when the last pill was formed, Qianhe sat there smiling.
Before him lay a hundred perfectly round, plump pills, brimming with spiritual energy.
Looking at these achievements, Chizuru smiled with satisfaction, her heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.
"I've taken thirty pills from each of these three portions. Tsk tsk, if I take them all, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to break through to the mid-stage of the Celestial Master realm!"
Chizuru stood up as she spoke, intending to check how much time had passed.
When he came outside, he saw people from all directions sweeping inside the Taoist temple.
Upon seeing Chizuru emerge, the four of them surrounded her, chattering incessantly.
"Master!"
"Master."
"Hmm, how long has it been since I started refining the pills?" Qianhe asked curiously.
"Three days."
"Huh? Three days?" Chizuru exclaimed in surprise.
He didn't expect that the past three days would take so long, did he?
"Yes, Master, you spent a long time refining pills this time."
"Alright, let's go, come with me to your senior uncle's place!"
Qianhe nodded, then led them to the Renjia Town mortuary.
They also inquired about the situation at the Taoist temple in the past few days.
However, the four people from the east, west, south, and north all said no, which clearly shows that not everyone can see ghosts.
...........................
Qianhe led her disciples to the Renjia Town mortuary at breakneck speed.
The lanterns at the entrance of the mortuary swayed gently like candle flames in the wind.
Ah Dong was very quick-witted. He stepped forward, knocked lightly on the door, and said loudly, "Uncle Lin, my master Qianhe has arrived."
Hearing the noise, Uncle Jiu, who was instructing Zhang Dadan inside the house, smiled.
He knew perfectly well that his junior brother's visit must mean that he had successfully refined the elixir.
"Jinbao, go open the door," Uncle Nine said to Zhang Dadan.
Then he went to the living room to wait.
"Okay Master."
