Bang!
Failure!
Bang!
Failure!
Three consecutive Furnace Explosions failed to affect Li Qingyuan's alchemy mindset.
After every failure, he carefully reviewed it, recorded it promptly, wrote down the reasons for failure, considered steps that could be improved, and then put them into action.
Every failure brought him closer and closer to success.
At last, the fourth batch had entered its final stage.
Li Qingyuan rapidly formed hand seals with both hands, sending alchemical spiritual formulas into the pill furnace to further condense the three crude pills within, turning them into true pills.
"Melt!"
The Melting Pill Hand Seal struck out, shaking the pill furnace as spiritual power seeped inside, fusing and condensing the pills through the corresponding alchemical hand seals.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Inside the pill furnace, the three pills grew increasingly condensed and rapidly took shape.
Crack!
One pill shattered midway through condensation, splitting into two halves.
Buzz! Buzz!
A faint sheen of sweat appeared on Li Qingyuan's forehead. He stared intently at the pill furnace, stabilizing the pills with his full concentration. Gradually, the remaining two pills began to hum. Faint spiritual light spilled from them, and wisps of medicinal fragrance began to drift out.
"It worked." Li Qingyuan was overjoyed. He lightly clapped his hands together, striking the pill furnace from a distance.
With a clang, the furnace lid flew open, and two pills shot out and landed in his palm.
"Spirit Nurturing Pills, High-Grade First-Rank Pills. They're complete." Li Qingyuan looked at the two pills, a satisfied smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
Though they were merely low-grade pills, they were genuine Spirit Nurturing Pills, capable of greatly increasing a Qi Condensation Sixth Layer Perfected cultivator's chances of breaking through to Qi Condensation Level 7.
This marked Li Qingyuan's official entry into the ranks
