Refining the Spirit Fusion Pill
Inside the hall, looking at the completed Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings, Lin Ming was overjoyed and immediately bit his tongue, causing a drop of blood to shoot out and land on the bone wings.
The blood was immediately absorbed upon contact with the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings.
"Whoosh!"
Upon absorption, the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings immediately emitted a strong light, accompanied by a sound of wind breaking, and transformed into a stream of light that entered Lin Ming's body.
As the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings entered his body, Lin Ming immediately felt a burning pain in his shoulder. Under this pain, a pair of amethyst wings fell off Lin Ming's shoulder.
What fell out was naturally Lin Ming's Purple Crystal Wings. The domineering nature of the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings compelled it not to allow any other wings to compete for its territory. So it directly squeezed out the Purple Crystal Wings.
As the Purple Crystal Wings fell, Lin Ming immediately felt the roots of the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings perfectly connect with the acupoints on his shoulder blades, as if they had always grown there. A feeling of blood connection arose spontaneously, and an unprecedented sense of lightness and speed surged throughout his body.
Lin Ming could even vaguely sense the jubilant energy of the wind element in the surrounding world, as if he could transform into a gust of wind and travel thousands of miles in an instant with just a slight thought.
In response, Lin Ming immediately had a thought, and with a "whoosh" sound, the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings suddenly extended from behind Lin Ming.
With a gentle flap of his Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings, gusts of wind howled through the room. A confident smile curved Lin Ming's lips. With these Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings, whether facing the Soul Hall or venturing into the Middle Continent, Lin Ming would have an extra Trump Card!
After retracting the Sky Demon Phoenix Bone Wings into his body, and sensing that someone was waiting outside, Lin Ming removed the barrier.
After removing the barrier, Lin Ming sensed that Elder Hai and Fa Ma, the president of the Alchemist Guild, were standing outside the gate. He immediately said, "Elder Hai, President Fa Ma, please come in and have a seat!"
Upon hearing Lin Ming's voice, the two came to the hall, sat down, and began to talk to Lin Ming.
After he sat down, a dark red scroll with an antique color and even some wear on the edges was handed to Lin Ming by Fa Ma.
"Lin Ming, this is the formula for the 'Spirit Fusion Pill.' It was just delivered from the Imperial City headquarters."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ming took the scroll. He could immediately feel its warm texture and the aura of Years of Sedimentation.
Lin Ming probed the scroll with his Soul Power, confirming its authenticity and integrity. He immediately nodded, "Thank you for your help, Lin Ming Fa Ma. I will remember this favor."
During this joint battle, Lin Ming's keen Soul Perception detected a not entirely harmonious aura within Medusa's body. Lin Ming knew that this aura belonged to the primordial Beast Soul of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.
In the original novel, Xiao Yan kept promising Medusa that he could refine Spirit Fusion Pill to solve this problem, thus tricking her into being his Medusa for several years. Lin Ming, on the other hand, obviously didn't need Medusa as his bodyguard. Lin Ming did this mainly for two reasons.
On one hand, it's because of the kindness shown to the Snake People Race. Of course, the most important aspect is also for future planning.
Because he would eventually have to go to the Middle Continent, a place teeming with powerful figures, where opportunities and dangers coexist, he couldn't stay in the Jia Ma Empire for long. If he could take this opportunity to forge a deeper bond with Medusa and the Snake People Race, then after he left, with Medusa, a Dou Zong powerhouse with unlimited potential, under his care, his family would have more security.
Upon hearing Lin Ming's words, Fa Ma's smile widened. He knew full well what it meant for the guild to befriend a master alchemist with limitless potential and strength already at the Dou Zong. Therefore, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I'm happy as long as I can help you!"
Hai Bodong watched from the side, feeling a mix of emotions. How long ago was it that the boy who needed his protection had grown into a powerful figure whom even the president of the Alchemist Guild treated with utmost respect?
Without exchanging a few pleasantries, Fa Ma took his leave, followed by Elder Hai, leaving Lin Ming alone in the hall.
After seeing off Elder Hai and Fama, Lin Ming examined the Spirit Fusion Pill in detail.
"Spirit Fusion Pill, Tier 6 Medicinal Pill! Effects: Fuses the soul and body, especially suitable for situations where the soul and body are not perfectly compatible, or where the body's memory is entangled in conflicts between various Soul Power..."
Looking at the description on the prescription, Lin Ming's eyes revealed a satisfied expression.
This Spirit Fusion Pill is the best solution to Medusa's current situation! It can not only help her completely fuse with the soul of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python and eliminate hidden dangers, but also make her soul more compatible with this evolved, perfect body, thus multiplying her potential.
After carefully studying the prescription, the required medicinal materials were confirmed. As Tier 6 Medicinal Pill, the Spirit Fusion Pill required very precious medicinal materials, among which the main ingredients, "Soul Shattering Flower" and "Spirit Essence Ganoderma," were even rarer.
However, given Lin Ming's current wealth and status, coupled with the numerous Storage Ring he seized from the enemy's powerful figures during the recent battle, gathering enough medicinal herbs would not be difficult.
"Soul Shattering Flower ... I seem to remember seeing one in Xie Bi Yan's Storage Ring ..." Lin Ming's consciousness sank into the Storage Ring and began to search for it.
The next day, as dawn broke.
After adjusting his state to its best, Lin Ming sat cross-legged. On the ground beside him, in addition to a dark red Medicinal Cauldron covered with various Magical Beasts, there were also dozens of Jade Box and Jade Bottle neatly arranged, containing various precious medicinal materials needed to refine the Spirit Fusion Pill.
Among them, the "Soul Shattering Flower" found in the Xie Bi Yan's Storage Ring and the crystal-clear "Spirit Essence Ganoderma" are particularly eye-catching. The Soul Fluctuation and Spirit Qi they emit are indispensable main ingredients for refining the Spirit Fusion Pill.
After carefully reviewing every detail of the formula in his mind, especially the intricate hand seals and key points for adjusting the heat, Lin Ming slowly opened his eyes, his gaze clear and resolute.
Let's begin.
After whispering something, Lin Ming stretched out his right hand and covered the Myriad Beast Cauldron.
"Puff!"
A ball of purplish-red flame suddenly rose from the Medicinal Cauldron —it was the Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame! The moment the flame appeared, the temperature in the secret chamber soared, and even the space itself distorted slightly. However, the violent destructive power was firmly restrained within a small area by Lin Ming's powerful Soul Power, appearing docile and agile.
Then, Lin Ming waved his left hand, and one by one, the medicinal herbs were drawn into the Medicinal Cauldron in an orderly fashion, as if guided by an invisible hand, and were enveloped by the purplish-red flame.
"Hiss..."
The moment the medicinal herbs came into contact with the Heavenly Flames, they withered and melted rapidly. The impurities within them were instantly vaporized by the terrifying high temperature, leaving only the purest medicinal essence, which turned into drops of liquid or powder of various colors and immense energy. Lin Ming used his Soul Power to envelop each drop and suspend them around the flames.
This process, though seemingly simple, is actually extremely dangerous. The heat resistance and the critical point for the volatilization of each medicinal herb are completely different. The slightest mistake will either result in insufficient tempering, leaving impurities and affecting the quality of the Pill Formation, or it will be directly burned, rendering all previous efforts futile. Lin Ming was completely focused, his Soul Power acting like the most precise instrument, constantly sensing the changes in each medicinal herb and accurately controlling the temperature and range of the flame.
Time passed slowly in the silent refining process. Inside the secret chamber, the Medicinal Fragrance gradually intensified, and the essence of medicinal power of various colors shimmered in the air like Star Points.
Once all the auxiliary medicinal herbs had been refined, Lin Ming's expression became even more solemn. He took a deep breath and his gaze fell on the "Soul Shattering Flower".
The Soul Shattering Flower, a translucent pale gray, faintly emanates Soul Fluctuation and is a sacred item for nourishing and harmonizing the soul. Lin Ming carefully threw it into the flames.
The Soul Shattering Flower, upon entering the fire, did not immediately melt. Instead, its surface shimmered with light, forming a small soul shield that resisted the scorching heat of the Heavenly Flames. Lin Ming remained calm and patient, slowly increasing the fire temperature, gradually permeating and refining the flower like a frog being slowly boiled in water. A full hour passed before the soul shield quietly shattered, Soul Shattering Flower transformed into a viscous gray liquid, within which countless tiny points of Soul Light seemed to flicker.
Next up is the "Spirit Essence Ganoderma." This substance contains a vast amount of life Spirit Qi and is the key to stabilizing the bridge between the physical body and the soul. Its refining also requires patience, as excessively intense flames will damage its Spirituality. Lin Ming controlled the Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame, restraining its violent attributes and leaving only pure heat, slowly refining the Spirit Essence Ganoderma into a lump of emerald green, vibrant Spirit Liquid.
With the main ingredient refined, the next step is the most crucial and difficult one – fusion!
Lin Ming's hands moved like butterflies flitting among flowers, forming a series of dazzling and mysterious hand seals. As his hand seals changed, the dozens of clumps of medicinal essence suspended in the air began to slowly converge towards the center in a specific order and proportion.
"Buzz!"
The contact between the different medicinal properties immediately produced a violent energy reaction, repelling and colliding with each other, emitting a low hum, making the initially fused liquid extremely unstable, violently rolling and twisting, as if it would explode at any moment.
In response, Lin Ming's Soul Power surged forth like a tide, forcefully stabilizing the raging medicinal effects. At the same time, his hands formed hand seals even faster, as if weaving an invisible net to gradually sort out and harmonize these unruly energies.
This was an extremely mentally taxing process. Beads of sweat slid down Lin Ming's forehead, evaporating in the surrounding heat before they could drip. However, his eyes, sharp as an eagle's, were fixed on the milky white liquid at the center of the flames, which was gradually moving from chaos to order.
The fusion process lasted for a full three hours.
When the last wisp of medicinal essence successfully merged in, the liquid finally stabilized completely, transforming into a fist-sized, smooth-as-a-mirror liquid sphere with what appeared to be a shimmering, iridescent glow inside. It emitted a strange fluctuation that could both soothe the soul and stabilize the body.
Pill Condensation!
Lin Ming dared not relax. He changed his hand seals again, and used his Soul Power to control the Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame for the final nourishment and compression. The liquid medicinal ball slowly rotated in the flame, gradually shrinking in size, and its color became deeper and more restrained. Natural Pill Pattern began to appear on its surface.
When the medicinal ball shrank to the size of a longan, an intensely rich and pervasive Medicinal Fragrance suddenly burst forth from the secret chamber, even penetrating the barrier and filling the surrounding air. Everyone who smelled this Medicinal Fragrance felt their spirits lifted, as if their souls had been cleansed.
"The Pill Formation!"
Lin Ming's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and with a low shout, he abruptly withdrew his hand seal!
"Call out!"
The perfectly round, milky-white pill with clear Pill Pattern on its surface shot out from the flames and landed in a Warm Jade Bottle that Lin Ming had prepared beforehand.
Upon receiving the elixir, one could feel its warmth and a strange stirring of the soul.
The Tier 6 Medicinal Pill, the Spirit Fusion Pill, has been successfully refined!
Feeling the immense medicinal power contained in the Jade Bottle within the jade bottle, Lin Ming let out a long sigh of relief, a satisfied smile appearing on his face. With this pill, the hidden dangers within Queen Medusa's body should be completely resolved. This could be considered a substantial reward for her righteous act.
