With the experience in refining the fourth-grade elixir, the Rejuvenating Pill, Ye Feng's initial refining of the Heyi Pill went smoothly.
He put all the elixirs into the furnace in an orderly manner. After the fire started turning, the crisp sound of quenching the elixir soon came from the furnace. This drum-like sound filled Ye Feng's heart with anticipation. He felt that the next moment would be the time for the Heyi Pill to come out of the furnace.
boom!
But what Ye Feng didn't expect was that when the sound of quenching the pill stopped and just when he was about to open the lid to take out the pill, a horrible roar suddenly came from the pill furnace and a violent airflow blew out, knocking him back several steps without any preparation.
Oh shit, total failure!
After taking a few steps back and standing still, Ye Feng glanced into the alchemy furnace, but saw that there was no prototype of the elixir inside, only a furnace full of black elixir residue.
Then he hurried over, picked up the blown-away furnace from the ground, and examined it carefully.
This alchemy furnace is of good quality. If it is damaged due to an explosion, it would be a waste of time.
After some exploration and confirming that there were no cracks on the furnace, Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior, what's wrong with you?"
At this moment, the earth-level ancient warrior's inquiring voice suddenly came from outside the door.
The sound of the exploding furnace was very loud. Even though Ye Feng closed the door, the sound still could be heard from far away, making the remaining disciples of the Earth Spiritual Sect feel extremely uneasy. They were afraid that Ye Feng would get unhappy and blow up the entire Earth Spiritual Sect.
"Is everything done?"
After coughing twice to get rid of the residue in his mouth caused by the explosive airflow, Ye Feng asked in a low voice.
"Everything has been done. The mountain protection formation has been re-sealed, and the corpses have been dealt with. As for the remaining disciples, I have restrained them according to your instructions. Everyone follows your lead and dares not reveal any information to the outside world."
Although the cultivation of this earth-level ancient warrior is a little lacking, his ability to do things is quite good. Ye Feng only gave an order and he helped Ye Feng to handle things in an orderly manner. Moreover, he flattered Ye Feng without leaving any trace, which was really good.
"Very good. I am practicing a secret technique. The noise I made was a bit loud. You don't have to panic. I will come out and lecture you after I finish practicing."
Ye Feng nodded and sent the Earth-level ancient warrior away.
The failure in refining the elixir was an absolute shame and humiliation for him, the descendant of the God of Medicine, and he could not tell anyone about it.
But, what went wrong?!
Ye Feng frowned and examined these spiritual medicines carefully. When he was refining them just now, he strictly followed the rules of refining medicines. Whether it was the processing of spiritual medicine materials or the control of earth fire, it was perfect.
But even with such perfect operation, the refining still failed, which was really hard for him to understand.
But since the furnace exploded, it means that there must be something he overlooked...
"All the materials are fine, and the temperature of the fire is appropriate, but what is wrong..."
Checking the remaining elixir and the power of the earth fire, Ye Feng frowned.
No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't find anything he had overlooked.
He wanted to try again, but the materials for the Heyi Pill were hard to come by. If this one was wasted, it would be difficult to find another one!
"Unity Pill...Unity Pill..."
After pondering for a long time without any clue, Ye Feng simply closed his eyes and sat cross-legged in front of the fire, muttering to himself, going over all the materials and steps again in the form of speaking.
"Unity..."
Suddenly, Ye Feng's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had grasped the key to refining the Heyi Pill.
The Heyi Pill is just as its name suggests. After taking it, it will merge the internal strength in the human body into one stream, helping the ancient martial artist to open up the meridians throughout the body, allowing a person to complete the transformation from an acquired mortal to an innate exquisiteness.
This change can make a person's body become as clear as when it returns to the mother's womb.
The effect of the elixir is unity, so the steps of refining must also be unity. When refining this elixir, not only must the processing of the spiritual medicine materials be just right, but the order in which the medicinal materials are put in must also be linked together and the medicinal properties must be compatible.
Only in this way can they complement each other, interweave their medicinal powers, and condense into one!
“I’m afraid this is the reason why, apart from Master Tian Zhen, no one in the ancient martial arts world has been able to refine the Heyi Pill for so many years!”
The more Ye Feng thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, and the more he felt that he had grasped the key to refining the Heyi Pill.
As far as he felt, the reason why the alchemists in the ancient martial arts world had not found a way to successfully refine the Heyi Pill after groping for so long was actually very simple, because those people only knew how to refine pills, but not like doctors who understood the compatibility of medicinal properties and treatment.
Only by understanding the compatibility of medicinal properties and treatment can one understand the true meaning of the word "unity".
"Try again, this time, you will succeed!"
His eyes changed, Ye Feng took water to clean the alchemy furnace, wiped it clean, and placed it back on the ground fire.
After heating the alchemy furnace, he took a deep breath and carefully put all the elixirs into the alchemy furnace according to the method of Chinese medicine, using the earth fire to catalyze them.
At this moment, if there were other people present, they would definitely be fascinated by the scene of Ye Feng refining the elixir.
In his hands, there are more than ten kinds of magical medicines, either slicing, removing stems and leaves, or grinding out juice. Every movement is as smooth as flowing water, carrying the unique charm of Chinese traditional medicine preparation.
Ding Dong... Ding Dong...
Time flew by, and after a short moment, the crisp sound of quenching the pill was heard again from the furnace.
Hearing this drum-like sound, Ye Feng's heart immediately rose to his throat.
This is the last batch of elixir. If he cannot successfully refine it this time, it means that even if he returns to the capital, he will not be able to help Du Zhong successfully refine the Heyi Pill he needs.
Buzz!
After a long time, the banging sounds in the furnace slowly dissipated, and everything became stable.
Ye Feng took a deep breath, quickly removed the alchemy furnace from the ground fire, and then slowly lifted the lid of the furnace as if he was holding a huge rock.
As soon as a corner of the stove cover was lifted, a rich and refreshing medicinal aroma immediately hit me in the face.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Feng saw a light purple pill appear inside.
When the furnace lid was lifted, the pill was still very soft, but after it was taken out, it immediately solidified into shape.
"It's done!"
After carefully taking the pill out of the furnace, Ye Feng's heart was pounding. He took out a silver needle and carefully drew a maple leaf pattern on the pill.
He knew very well what the birth of this Heyi Pill meant to the ancient martial arts world.
Countless top-level Heaven-level masters will go crazy for this pill and will obtain it at all costs!
What he needs to do is to put his own mark on the elixir, just like he did with the Spring Rain Snow Cream, so that everyone will know who is the reason why this elixir that has been silent for a hundred years and no one has been able to refine has reappeared in the world again!
