Immortal God of War-Chapter 135: The Elixir is Formed_1

"Don’t disturb me when I’m performing Alchemy."

After instructing the Wolf King, Qin Feiyang waved his hand and summoned the Netherworld Demon Flame. It floated in the air right under the Pill Furnace. With a single thought, flames engulfed the furnace! The temperature inside the castle skyrocketed! The Wolf King retreated hastily to a corner, its pupils constricting in fear at the sight of the ominous flame. In the blink of an eye, the top of the Pill Furnace was already glowing red, radiating intense waves of heat!

Using one’s own alchemical flame for Alchemy significantly differs from borrowing someone else’s. When Qin Feiyang was in the Alchemy Room, he first had to use spiritual power to adapt to the high temperature of their flame, gradually merging with it to control it. Now, with the Netherworld Demon Flame, he could control the flame with just a thought! This would undoubtedly save him a lot of time.

HUM!

A burst of spiritual power shot out from the top of his head, picked up a medicinal herb, and slowly dropped it into the Pill Furnace. However, the moment it entered, it turned into ashes accompanied by a puff of black smoke!

"What’s going on?"

Qin Feiyang frowned. He had already made the healing pill more than a hundred times. His control of the alchemical flame was excellent; while he might not have completely mastered it, he certainly wouldn’t make such a mistake. Moreover, he distinctly remembered that the first ingredient for the healing pill required thirty percent of the flame’s power. He was indeed controlling it at thirty percent, so why did the herb turn into ashes?

He hesitantly reached his hand into the Pill Furnace, then quickly withdrew it in surprise. "Why is the temperature inside the Pill Furnace so high?"

Upon a quick thought, realization dawned on him.

It must be due to the different grades of the two alchemical flames. Without a doubt, the grade of the Netherworld Demon Flame is definitely higher than the alchemical flame of the Elixir Palace. There would naturally be a temperature difference between them. Therefore, I need to readjust the temperature.

Having understood this, Qin Feiyang adjusted the flame to twenty percent, yet the herb still turned into ashes. Even when he lowered it to ten percent, the herb still ended up as ashes.

Not even ten percent is necessary?

Qin Feiyang was taken aback. The grade of the Netherworld Demon Flame was far higher than he had expected. Next, he controlled the flame to five percent. Finally, he successfully extracted the Spiritual Liquid.

The first ingredient, which originally required thirty percent, now only needs five percent. The second ingredient, which initially required forty percent, should now only need ten percent, right?

Upon testing, it turned out to be true. Afterwards, he began extracting the Spiritual Liquid without any reservations. The third ingredient required ten percent of the flame’s power! The fourth ingredient required fifteen percent! Very soon, he had extracted eight drops of Spiritual Liquid.

The last two steps were to combine the eight kinds of Spiritual Liquid and then add the Solidifying Liquid to form the pill. He completed these without any hesitation or delay. Once the pill was done, Qin Feiyang immediately grabbed it, his eyes wide as he carefully examined it.

In that instant, his body shuddered as his eyes gleamed brilliantly! The healing pill had a ring of Elixir Pattern around it that was not only clear and bright but also emitted rays of divine light! It was as if a halo had been added to the pill.

This is a genuine Top Grade pill!

Qin Feiyang was immensely excited. The quality of the alchemical flame indeed played a crucial role in determining the quality of the pill. Without the Netherworld Demon Flame, there was no way he would have been able to make such a perfect Top Grade pill.

Now, I truly deserve the title ’Top Grade Alchemist’!

"I must not get carried away. The Top Grade pill is not the end goal; I have to keep pushing forward." He muttered to himself, calming his excitement, and then started making the Bone-Renewing Pill.

Time continued to pass.

「Two days later, late into the night.」

A round and plump figure climbed in through the window. It was Fatty!

Since he couldn’t see Qin Feiyang in the room, he called out in a low voice, "Brother Jian, Master Fatty has arrived! Come out."

WHOOSH!

Qin Feiyang instantly appeared out of nowhere, smiling. "I’ve been waiting for you for quite some time."

"Waiting for me?" Fatty looked confused.

"Where would I dare to go to the Elixir King Palace to find you?" Qin Feiyang gave a bitter smile. "I’d probably be captured before I even step foot inside the palace. That’s why I chose to stay in such a conspicuous place, letting the whole city know of my presence. If Fatty needed to find me, he would naturally come here."

After thinking for a moment, Fatty understood Qin Feiyang’s intention and sighed, "This is too troublesome. We need to get some Image Crystal Stones as soon as possible."

Qin Feiyang replied, "Are you joking? Image Crystal Stones are so expensive. Are you planning to pay for them?"

Fatty chuckled. "Even if you sold me off, you wouldn’t get enough Gold Coins. Hence, you’ll have to figure out a way to get the Image Crystal Stones, Brother Jian."

Qin Feiyang rolled his eyes, glanced around the room, and asked suspiciously, "Where’s Shi Zheng?"

"He’s downstairs drinking by himself!" Fatty pointed downstairs.

Qin Feiyang said, "As long as he didn’t see us, that’s best. So, did you manage to get the medicinal herbs?" That was why he had been waiting for Fatty—for the medicinal herbs.

"If Master Fatty is on the job, what can’t be accomplished?" Fatty glared at him in discontent, took out a Qiankun Bag, and threw it to Qin Feiyang.

Qin Feiyang caught the Qiankun Bag with one hand and grabbed Fatty with the other. The next moment, they were both inside the castle.

"Hi, Brother Wolf." Seeing the Wolf King, Fatty immediately stretched out his hand in a friendly greeting.

"You look pretty meaty, and it’s been a few months since Brother Wolf had anything other than vegetarian..." The Wolf King opened its cavernous mouth, staring at him with malicious intent.

Before it could finish speaking, Fatty shivered and hid behind Qin Feiyang, like a terrified little piglet.

"Spineless." The Wolf King looked at him dismissively, then lowered its head and continued to sleep.

Qin Feiyang took out the medicinal materials, counting them one by one: no more, no less, exactly three of each. Then, while sorting the medicinal materials, he said, "Fatty, I have a question for you."

Fatty replied, "Go ahead!"

Qin Feiyang asked, "Do you already know who I really am?"

Fatty chuckled and asked, "Then, would you tell me who you really are?"

Not even a hint of surprise, just as I expected. Qin Feiyang said indifferently, "Fatty, since you know I am Qin Feiyang, why do you still stick so close to me?"

"What? You’re Qin Feiyang?" Fatty looked at him in disbelief, dumbfounded.

Qin Feiyang glanced at Fatty, saying, "Stop pretending, or I’ll let the White-Eyed Wolf eat you."

ROAR! The Wolf King cooperated well, baring its fangs and growling menacingly.

Fatty flinched and quickly said, "Right, right! Master Fatty indeed knew early on that you are Qin Feiyang. The only reason I’m sticking close to you is that I figured you had a significant background and I wanted to benefit from it a little. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?"

Qin Feiyang shook his head and replied, "It’s no big deal. You guessed right; I do have a significant background."

Fatty curiously asked, "So, what exactly is your background?"

Qin Feiyang inquired, "If I were to tell you now, I’d have to kill you afterward. Do you still want to know?"

"Then forget it." Fatty quickly waved his hands.

"Prepare a bamboo slip. I’m going to give you two perfect Martial Arts Techniques. Now, don’t bother me."

With that said, Qin Feiyang put the previously made pill away, stood up, walked to the Pill Furnace, calmed his mind, and prepared to refine the Vermilion Glazed Pill.

The Vermilion Glazed Pill is not like the healing pill or the Bone-Renewing Pill. The raw materials for both the healing pill and Bone-Renewing Pill are common and inexpensive. If something went wrong, I could always buy more. However, each ingredient for the Vermilion Glazed Pill is extremely rare. If anything went wrong, I would have to invest a lot of energy to find them again. Especially the Fire Ginseng and the leaves of the Red Fire Glazed Tree; there absolutely can be no mishaps! Furthermore, this is my first time refining the Vermilion Glazed Pill. Deep down, he was slightly nervous.

And yet, at the same time, Fatty was completely filled with exhilaration!

Brother Jian... No, no, no, it’s Elder Qin! He’s actually going to give me perfect Martial Arts Techniques! This surprise came too swiftly, didn’t it? I’m a bit dizzy now. I feel as if I’m dreaming.

"You and Ling Yunfei are both spineless. It’s just two perfect Martial Arts Techniques. Do you need to be this excited?" The Wolf King’s dismissive remark suddenly echoed in Fatty’s mind.

Fatty instantly glared and turned as if to roar at the Wolf King. But then he remembered Qin Feiyang was performing Alchemy, so the words on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down. He chuckled softly and said, "I’m pleased. What’s it to you?"

PSH! With a disdainful gaze, the Wolf King continued to nap.

「At the same time.」

Qin Feiyang had begun. He was completely focused.

There were a total of nine medicinal materials for the Vermilion Glazed Pill. When extracting the Spiritual Liquid from these nine medicinal materials, he would initially control the heat to a minimum, then gradually increase it.

"I didn’t expect Elder Qin to actually have leaves from the Red Fire Glazed Tree," Fatty mumbled under his breath, then quietened down, carefully observing Qin Feiyang’s Alchemy process.

At this moment, the ancient castle was dead silent, without a hint of disturbing noise.

Several hundred breaths went by.

Apart from the leaves of the Red Fire Glazed Tree and the Fire Ginseng, the Spiritual Liquid from the other seven medicinal ingredients had all been extracted, each giving off a strong medicinal aroma. Yet now, he had to be even more careful. He concentrated his spiritual power, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.

Another hundred breaths went by.

The Spiritual Liquid was extracted from the Fire Ginseng as well. He then started to extract the Spiritual Liquid from the leaves of the Red Fire Glazed Tree. Once the leaves entered the Pill Furnace, he gradually increased the intensity of the Netherworld Demon Flame.

Suddenly, it seemed the heat was excessive; the leaves quickly withered! Qin Feiyang’s expression changed. He quickly removed the leaves. Only when he saw they hadn’t been burnt did he finally relax. After the temperature in the Pill Furnace dropped, he carefully put the leaves back in.

This time, his control over the flame was much more precise than before; he increased the temperature incrementally!

Several tens of breaths later, the Spiritual Liquid was finally extracted without any mishaps.

But now is not the time to relax! I can’t afford to make mistakes on the final two steps!

Qin Feiyang looked at the nine drops of Spiritual Liquid in the Pill Furnace, trying to relax his body and mind. Because the more anxious I am, the more likely I am to make mistakes!

After a long while, he finally began to blend the nine droplets of Spiritual Liquid. Each movement was extremely gentle. This was a test of one’s control and patience! A tiny mistake could lead to total failure!

Gradually, the nine droplets of Spiritual Liquid started blending perfectly, each radiating a glorious rainbow light as if a precious treasure was about to be born!

The final step!

Qin Feiyang used his spiritual power to lift a drop of Solidifying Liquid and carefully blended it into the combined Spiritual Liquid. Quickly, the Vermilion Glazed Pill took shape.

The glorious light withdrew, revealing a pill the size of a marble. It was fiery red all over, as if tiny flames danced on its surface. An intoxicating medicinal aroma, like a tidal wave, instantly filled every inch of the ancient castle.

With a wave of his hand, Qin Feiyang guided the Vermilion Glazed Pill out from the Pill Furnace and caught it in his palm. Even though the pill was incredibly hot and he was soaked in sweat, nothing could conceal the exhilaration in his heart!
