After the battle in the martial arts arena came to an end, Xiao Yan's name swept through every corner of the Xiao Clan like a hurricane. In the days that followed, Xiao Yan became the focus of almost everyone's conversation.
To defeat two Yuan Zong experts single-handedly is an astonishing feat, truly unique.
In a quiet, secluded room.
"Call..."
As he exhaled that breath of turbid air, a faint glow appeared on Xiao Yan's face. Feeling the powerful and abundant Origin Qi within his body, a look of surprise and delight was hard to hide on his face.
Although the battle with Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhuobin consumed a lot of his energy, it also allowed him to completely master the power he had gained from his breakthrough. Not only was his aura completely consolidated, but it was even showing signs of gradually rising.
He shifted his body from his cross-legged position, and immediately, a series of crisp cracking sounds like firecrackers rang out. After relaxing for a moment, Xiao Yan lightly flicked his sleeve, and a flash of light appeared on the storage Storage Ring on his finger. In the blink of an eye, rows of jade boxes were neatly arranged on the ground in front of him. These jade boxes were now emitting a rich medicinal fragrance, spreading like a thin mist, making it clear at a glance that they were no ordinary items.
These medicinal herbs are all needed to refine the Ancestor Transformation Pill), and they are extremely rare items. Any one of them would be priceless in the outside world. However, now that they are placed in front of Xiao Yan, no matter how many there are, they are all just ordinary.
" Ancestor Transformation Pill, a high-grade seventh-tier pill..."
With a flick of his wrist, a scroll fell into Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan. He unfolded it and carefully studied all the information inside.
Even though Xiao Yan already knew the refining method and details of the Ancestor Transformation Pill by heart, this refining was different from the past. As the core ingredient of the Ancestor Transformation Pill, the Sumeru Grass, Xiao Yan only had one plant. In other words, Xiao Yan could not afford to make any mistakes in the refining of the Ancestor Transformation Pill. The only thing he could do at this moment was to repeatedly understand the refining process in order to eliminate any possibility of failure to the greatest extent possible.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Yan finally put away the scroll in his hand again. He closed and opened his eyes, memorizing all the information within the scroll. Then, his gaze slowly swept over the rows of snow-white jade boxes in front of him. He took a deep breath, suppressing all the emotional fluctuations in his heart. After calming down, he flicked his finger, and a black light suddenly flashed past. A deep bell sound rang out in the secret chamber, and then a huge cyan-gold medicine cauldron crashed heavily to the ground. It was the Luo Heavenly Cauldron.
With his eyes half-closed, Xiao Yan's mind flashed once again with the method of refining the Ancestor Transformation Pill. Then, a flash of fire appeared in his dark eyes, and a sharp look appeared between his brows. He then slammed his palm heavily on the medicine cauldron in front of him, and the lid opened with a bang. At the same time, he reached out and a suction force surged out from his palm, and a jade box was immediately opened, exposing a tender yellow root to the air.
"Puff!"
With a soft sound, a Heavenly Flames suddenly erupted from the medicine cauldron, burning wildly within it. As the Heavenly Flames rose, the patterns on the surface of the Luo Heavenly Cauldron became increasingly clear, truly encompassing the heavens and earth.
Once the temperature within the cauldron reached a certain level, Xiao Yan waved his hand, and the tender yellow root immediately Xiao Yan into the air. With a thought, flames spontaneously condensed in the air around the root, and waves of scorching heat spread out, causing the color of the root to gradually change until it turned red. Only then did he toss it into the medicine cauldron.
Magnolia root grows deep within the earth's veins, drawing nourishment from the earth's energy. It possesses exceptional resilience. If it can be refined and absorbed by earth or rock-elemental cultivators, there is a chance that it can significantly enhance the strength of their own attributes, making their Origin Qi even more powerful. As the first ingredient in the Ancestor Transformation Pill, its purpose is also to improve the Ancestor Transformation Pill's own tolerance, ensuring that it will not change due to variations in flame temperature during the refining process.
The refining of the first medicinal herb took a full hour, and the subsequent refining process would obviously not be any easier. The careful refining of hundreds of medicinal herbs would require an extremely long time. Even so, this was under the premise that Xiao Yan used the Heavenly Flames to refine them. Otherwise, the process of refining the medicinal herbs would probably be even more difficult.
It must be said that, for alchemists, Heavenly Flames is indeed a truly divine weapon!
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the sealed chamber, Xiao Yan frowned, the raging flames frantically refining the various medicinal herbs continuously being poured into the cauldron. The jade boxes placed in front of Xiao Yan were gradually decreasing in number. In the narrow space, wisps of mixed medicinal fragrances lingered, like clouds and mist.
At a certain moment, the last jade box placed in front of Xiao Yan was opened. After a difficult struggle against the Heavenly Flames, the medicinal herbs inside were finally refined into a small cluster of the most essential powder. As the extraction of the medicinal herbs was completed, the expression on Xiao Yan's face did not lessen in the slightest. On the contrary, it became even more solemn.
Extracting medicinal herbs is only the first step in the entire pill-making process. Only now can we officially begin refining the Ancestor Transformation Pill. What follows is the most challenging part.
The seventh-grade Ancestor Transformation Pill is, without exaggeration, the highest-level pill Xiao Yan has ever encountered in a formal sense. Its difficulty is self-evident. Moreover, there is only one chance to refine this pill. Once it fails, there is no possibility of restarting the cauldron.
Xiao Yan understood this perfectly, and therefore, he dared not show the slightest negligence on his face.
"Call..."
With his gaze fixed on the raging flames burning in the medicine cauldron before him, Xiao Yan let out a long breath. Then, at a certain moment, his mind suddenly stirred, and with a wave of his sleeve, he threw all the pure medicinal herbs, which were enveloped in flames and suspended in the void, into the medicine cauldron in front of him. Without further ado, he mobilized all his Spiritual Strength, focusing all his attention on controlling the flames in the furnace, and suddenly compressed the refined medicinal herbs!
The Pill Fusion has begun; success or failure hinges on this moment!
