Extraction, purification, fusion.
Chu Zhou began refining the pill, executing every step with textbook precision.
His powerful soul force acted like the most precise scanner, constantly monitoring every minute change in the medicinal liquid inside the cauldron.
Thanks to his "myriad medicine clarity body" and his experience watching Yao Lao refine pills many times, his understanding of medicinal properties and control of the heat far surpassed those of an ordinary peak fifth-grade alchemist—even those of an average sixth-grade alchemist.
Time slowly passed, and the fragrance of medicine filled the Azure Flame Hall.

An ordinary alchemist would probably have panicked by now, perhaps even causing the cauldron to explode, but Chu Zhou's expression remained unchanged.
His formidable soul power abruptly divided into several strands. Like nimble fingers, they slipped precisely between the conflicting medicinal liquids, guiding and harmonizing them.
