BXBX NOVEL Chapter 180 - Starting to Refine Pills!
Chapter 180 Starting to Refine Pills!
Time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, the sun had set.
Standing on the peak of Qianlong Mountain and looking into the distance, people could only see the desolateness in the cold winter.
People from the Martial Tao world were fond of drinking and were also good at drinking. Although they had drunk a lot, they were just slightly drunk.
It was getting late, so everyone took their leave one after another.
Chu Xun went downhill personally to see them off, which made them feel extremely flattered.
Chu Xun knew that after today, even if these people would not be his friends, at least they would not be his enemies.
Moreover, they were grateful to Chu Xun for sharing the Sword Technique and would definitely try their best to publicize Chu Xun. At that time, they would definitely make the Heaven Tao Sect’s shameless actions public.
This time, he not only wanted the Heaven Tao Sect to be annihilated, but also wanted them to be condemned by the world and to go down in history as a symbol of infamy.
The hostility in Chu Xun’s heart was growing. He knew it was extremely dangerous, and extremely unfavorable for his cultivation. However, this was the first time that he did not want to restrain himself. He wished to indulge himself once.
On the way down the mountain, the bad girl came over and glanced at him with her head tilted. Then she said, “I have never liked anyone else, and you are the first one.”
When Chu Xun heard that, he was silent, because he did not know how to answer. He was really not good at love affairs.
The bad girl’s eyes were a little dim. Then she pretended to be unrestrained and said, “It does not matter. I know that many people do not like me, and you are just one of them.”
Chu Xun was slightly stunned. After thinking about it for a moment, he said, “I cannot give you the like you want, but I like your character. All kinds of good-looking are the same, but an interesting character is one-in-a-million.”
The bad girl’s dim eyes began to become colorful and bright. She laughed and was very happy.
“It is enough to make a large group of people jealous that you like me.”
Chu Xun chuckled and did not reply.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, everyone left.
Before leaving, these people told him that when he reached the Xuanji Mountain, they would surely go to cheer him on.
The opening banquet of Chu Xun’s Mansion ended just like that.
The process was a bit troublesome, but Chu Xun was quite satisfied with the ending.
...
The next day.
Chu Xun asked Long Ao and the others to stay in the Purple Bamboo Club for the time being and wait for his news.
It was because he was about to refine pills.
Refining pills was not terrifying, but cracks could be found all over this furnace. If it exploded, the entire Qianlong Mountain would be affected.
If the furnace exploded, the power would be no less than that of the high-energy armor-piercing missile.
After everyone left, Chu Xun was the only one left in Qianlong Mountain.
The furnace, that was half a person high, stood in the middle of the square.
Chu Xun held a fake Spirit Stone in his one hand and his fingers of the other hand kept carving mysterious and ancient patterns on the Spirit Stone like a knife.
He had not reached the Nascent Soul Stage, so he could not produce the Flame of Source, so he could rely on the magic formation.
“Ninth Heaven Burning Formation!”
After finishing setting the magic formation, Chu Xun stood next to the furnace and placed all the raw materials for the Level-improving Pill.
“Rise!”
Chu Xun stretched out a finger and tapped in the air, and the air was stirred and distorted.
Boom boom...
Hundreds of fire dragons soared into the sky. The air was refined, and there were crackling sounds of explosion.
In an instant, the area became a vacuum zone.
“Burn it!” Chu Xun waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
...
Hundreds of fire dragons rushed to the furnace and began to burn it with terrifying flames.
The first step of refining pills was heating the furnace!
The hundreds of fire dragons had burned for more than three hours. At this moment, the temperature of the furnace was terrifyingly high, as if it was made up of lava.
The second step was dividing the herbs.
A Celestial-eyed Elixir Grass that was giving off green light was thrown into the furnace.
The Celestial-eyed Elixir Grass was burned to ashes before it reached the bottom of the furnace. The ashes flew out of the furnace, and a drop of crystal-clear liquid floated in the furnace, emitting green light and full of vitality.
Spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs were thrown into the furnace one by one.
Right now, the furnace was like a boundless starry sky where the essence refined from spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs were shining like brilliant stars.
The essence was not the purest, and it still needed to be thoroughly tempered.
Hundreds of fire dragons kept burning the essence. Then impurities were expelled continuously and disappeared.
The process of refining and expelling impurities took Chu Xun an entire day.
The next day, it was at noon, the time when the Qi was the most sufficient in the day.
Chu Xun took out a blood-red fist-sized stone, which was the Blood-red Stone he had got from the Golden Knife Sect.
His fingers cut the Blood-red Stone like a knife and one piece of the Blood-red Stone was cut off.
Chu Xun then threw the fallen Blood-red Stone into the furnace.
After about half an hour, the Blood-red Stone turned into a ball of active blood-red essence.
The next step was the third step, condensing and fusing.
This step had a strict requirement on cultivator’s control of the True Energy.
But it was not difficult for Chu Xun. He had been an alchemist in the world of cultivation. Besides, it was his second time to cultivate. He had taken the same path before, so his control of True Energy was almost perfect.
Moreover, he also had the Reincarnation Line, which was created when he refined pills.
Dozens of threads of Reincarnation Line emerged and swam around Chu Xun like white snakes.
With a flick of Chu Xun’s five fingers, dozens of Reincarnation Lines shot into the furnace, and then quickly dispersed. Each of them gently twined a drop of essence.
Chu Xun controlled every Reincarnation Line carefully and pushed them forward.
Every millimeter the Reincarnation Line moved, there would be one more drop of sweat on Chu Xun’s forehead.
The spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs were born to repel each other. It was very difficult to integrate them together.
This would a long process that required full concentration. If one was not careful enough, the essence that had been refined would be vaporized by the flames, and then the refining process would fail.
Chu Xun’s expression was unusually solemn and he even held his breath.
The refined essence was pushed forward by the Reincarnation Line and only advanced a few millimeters every hour.
It was two days later that the essences were almost glued to each other.
The next step was fusing, which was a critical step.
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, which were shining brightly. He spread out his hands and then suddenly clenched them.
He roared loudly, “Fuse!”
Like soldiers who had received the order, the Reincarnation Lines moved at the same time and pushed the essence together fiercely.
Buzz!
Dozens of drops of essence merged together. Then dozens of streaks of Reincarnation Lines quickly wrapped around them and suppressed them until they formed a fist-sized ball of essence.
For a moment, dozens of rays of light came out through the crack of the Reincarnation Line and lit up the surrounding, which then became colorful and beautiful.
At the same time, hundreds of fire dragons soared into the sky, swooped down, and began to burn the furnace.
The colorful lights began to fade and the fist-sized essence ball began to stabilize. The Reincarnation Lines released it and flew to Chu Xun, leaving only one flying in the furnace.
He stretched out his hand and waved it in the air. The Reincarnation Line in the furnace suddenly became as sharp as a knife. It cut the fist-sized essence ball into twenty pieces, each of which was circular and as big as a thumb.
Chu Xun breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had been too nervous. However, the materials needed to refine the Level-improving Pill on Earth were too hard to find, and he could not afford to fail. Fortunately, it was threatening but not dangerous, and everything was more successful than he had imagined.
Crack!
Suddenly, there was a subtle sound, as if a stone had cracked.
However, Chu Xun’s expression suddenly changed when he heard that sound. He walked around the furnace to examine it with sharp eyes.
When he reached the back of the furnace, he suddenly stopped.
A crack was spreading down from the ceiling, and soon it would reach the bottom of the furnace.
The problem he was most worried about had arrived.
Sure enough, the cracked furnace went wrong at the crucial moment.
Meanwhile, there were several cracks that began to spread.
Chu Xun showed a serious expression. If he was not careful enough, the furnace would explode and he would fail to refine the pills.
Swoosh!
All of a sudden, tens of thousands of Reincarnation Lines appeared around Chu Xun. They shot out at the same time and wrapped themselves around the furnace. The entire furnace was enveloped in the Reincarnation Line.
