Chapter 34 Alchemy!
"Hmm?" What happened next surprised Zhang Qingxuan.
Faced with the violent impact of the Nine Profound Divine Thunder, the Yin-Yang Creation Fire showed no reaction whatsoever.
It hovered quietly in another corner of the dantian, its icy blue and crimson flames slowly rotating without flinching or dodging.
The lightning bolts of the Nine Profound Divine Thunder reached within three feet of the flames before crashing into an invisible swamp, their speed decreasing drastically and their power rapidly dissipating.
When it actually touches the flame, only a few tiny sparks remain, which disappear without a trace after a "sizzle" on the surface of the flame.
The flames neither retaliated nor retreated, but simply burned quietly, as if silently saying: "Make trouble if you want, it's none of my business."
The Nine Profound Divine Thunder seemed to have punched empty air, its frustrated lightning darting about wildly, crackling and exploding within Zhang Qingxuan's dantian, causing his meridians to ache faintly.
It launched several more tentative attacks, each one losing much of its power as it approached the flames, eventually retreating back to its original position in frustration. However, it still occasionally unleashed a few arcs of electricity to assert its "territorial sovereignty."
"call..."
Zhang Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, then seemed to be deep in thought.
"This method of condensation seems quite sophisticated!"
Although this Creation Fire is born from the fusion of ice and fire, and possesses both yin and yang inclusiveness, it has a natural neutralizing effect on the extreme yang and fierceness of thunder!
However, being newly born and lacking sufficient spirituality, it is not aggressive at all. Therefore, the Yin-Yang Creation Fire's ability to withstand the Nine Profound Divine Thunder's attack is likely due to the power of its condensation method!
This will further enhance its capabilities.
Having understood this, he still dared not be careless. With a thought, the Yin-Yang diagram nurtured in his sea of consciousness slowly sank into his dantian, hovering between the Nine Profound Divine Thunder and the Yin-Yang Creation Fire.
With this guy mediating and suppressing the conflict, even if the two sides really clash in the future, it can be controlled in time.
Having dealt with the "hidden dangers" within his body, Zhang Qingxuan stood up and began to set up protective measures.
He walked slowly around the valley, and every seven steps he would use his finger as a brush to carve an intricate purple thunder pattern in the air, on the rock walls, and on the ground.
These seemingly scattered lightning patterns are actually interconnected, subtly forming a massive array covering the entire valley. "Heavenly Thunder Array, activate!"
Reaching the last key point of the formation, Zhang Qingxuan let out a low shout, bit his fingertip, and flicked a drop of golden blood essence into it.
Buzz!
The void trembled!
At the valley entrance, on the rock walls, in mid-air... countless purple lightning patterns lit up simultaneously, weaving together into a vast net of lightning that covered the heavens and the earth.
A violent aura of thunder spread out, and even a faint smell of burning filled the air.
If ordinary soul beasts get close, they will turn to ashes in an instant; even a powerful expert at the Title Douluo level would have to consider whether he can withstand the thunderous storm before trying to force his way in.
With this great array protecting him, Zhang Qingxuan could finally focus on refining pills.
In the days that followed, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well became his personal alchemy room.
In the first few days, he only picked the younger, lower-grade herbs on the outskirts to practice.
Hemostatic herbs, Qi-restoring flowers, calming leaves... these herbs, which are considered precious even in the outside world, were poured into the furnace formed by the Yin-Yang Creation Fire in his hands like flowing water.
In the first few batches, the success rate of the pills was pitifully low. It was considered lucky if one or two out of ten batches were successful, and the pills were of coarse appearance and had mixed medicinal properties.
But Zhang Qingxuan didn't care. After each failure, he would sit quietly and review the lesson, searching for the crux of the problem in the vast heritage of the "Dan Dian".
Gradually, his technique became more and more skillful.
When controlling the fire, the icy blue and crimson flames move with effortless grace, sometimes as blazing as the sun, sometimes as cool as the moon; when adding medicine, the amount and timing of each ingredient are precise to the millimeter; melting liquid, condensing pills, collecting pills... every step flows smoothly, revealing a mysterious rhythm.
Seven days later, Zhang Qingxuan's pill-making rate had stabilized at over 70%, and all the pills he refined were of high quality. Occasionally, he could even produce a few top-grade pills with faint pill patterns.
Only then did he begin to use the celestial herbs at the core of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
For the first batch, he chose "Heavenly Spirit Grass" and "Crimson Sun Vermilion Fruit".
With the aid of more than a dozen auxiliary medicines such as "Earth Vein Ganoderma", "Bone Tempering Flower", and "Marrow Cleansing Vine", Zhang Qingxuan started the furnace at the core of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.
The Yin-Yang Creation Fire flickered in his palm, its icy blue and crimson flames slowly rotating as it poured in one immortal herb after another.
The herbs melted rapidly in the flames, impurities were removed, and the essence was extracted, eventually turning into a fist-sized ball of golden-red liquid.
Zhang Qingxuan's expression was solemn. He formed hand seals and his divine sense spread like a net, enveloping the entire illusory alchemy furnace.
"melt!"
The golden-red medicinal liquid churned and contracted in the flames, gradually condensing into form. Above the alchemy furnace, crimson clouds gathered, and the faint sound of a dragon's roar echoed through the valley.
Three days and three nights later.
"open!"
Zhang Qingxuan gave a low shout, and the Void Elixir Furnace burst open with a roar!
shhhhhh!
Nine golden rays shot into the sky, each containing a pill the size of a longan, its surface shimmering with crimson gold.
On the surface of the pill, three cloud patterns were naturally formed, and the fragrance of the medicine spread out, making people feel their blood and qi boiling and their whole body comfortable.
"The Creation Pill is complete!"
Zhang Qingxuan used a jade bottle he had prepared beforehand to collect all nine pills.
The elixir felt warm and smooth to the touch, with a subtle pulse, as if it were alive.
This pill can temper bloodlines and promote evolution. For human soul masters, it offers a chance for their martial souls to undergo beneficial mutations or even evolve; for soul beasts, it is an unparalleled opportunity to unlock and evolve their ancient bloodlines.
With the first batch successfully fired, Zhang Qingxuan's confidence soared.
Over the next few days, he worked tirelessly, turning the immortal herbs and elixirs around the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire into bottles of miraculous pills that rivaled the creation of heaven and earth.
Countless top-tier elixirs have been created!
The Yuanling Pill. As long as one has a breath left, taking it can sustain life and instantly restore most of the lost Qi and soul power. It is a true life-saving treasure.
Soul Pill. This pill is specifically designed to heal soul injuries, nourish the soul, and strengthen the spirit. Its value to spirit-type soul masters is immeasurable.
Body Tempering Pill. Tempers the physical body, comparable to ten years of arduous training in body-refining techniques.
Youth-preserving elixir. Keeps you young forever, your appearance never fades.
The Hundred Herbs Elixir. It can cure all poisons in the world.
Wind-Riding Pill. After ingestion, one will feel as light as a swallow and experience a dramatic increase in speed.
Mighty Strength Pill. Doubles your strength for a short period of time...
One furnace after another, the fragrance of cinnamon permeated the valley, lingering for a long time.
When Zhang Qingxuan finally stopped, thirty-six jade bottles were neatly arranged in front of him. Each bottle was labeled with the name and effects of the elixir.
The bottle has a warm, smooth surface, through which the luster of the elixir within can be faintly seen, and the fragrance of the medicine wafts out, making one feel refreshed and relaxed.
"Hahaha, what a bumper harvest! What a bumper harvest!"
Looking at these pills, Zhang Qingxuan couldn't help but burst into laughter again.
With these elixirs, his foundation will be terrifyingly deep.
Whether it's self-cultivation, building up one's power, or trading, one now has sufficient capital.
His laughter echoed through the valley, completely waking the white dragon who had been feigning sleep.
The white dragon raised its enormous head, its vertical pupils immediately drawn to the jade bottles.
Its gaze was fixed intently on the jade bottle labeled "Creation Pill," and it couldn't look away.
That was a call from the deepest part of one's bloodline.
The white dragon flicked its tongue, the fragrance of the Creation Elixir permeating the air making its blood boil, and it felt as if countless ants were crawling under its scales.
It could clearly sense that the elixir contained a mysterious and ancient power that resonated with the thin but real dragon blood within its body.
Evolve! Transform into a dragon! Soar through the heavens!
These desires, buried deep in their blood, were ignited at this moment.
