The alternation of yin and yang in the pill furnace filled the entire pill refinery process. In the beginning, they had actively pushed for the exchange of yin and yang, but now, they had to balance and stabilize it. It was difficult to move from stillness to movement, but it was even more difficult to move from movement to stillness. The most important thing was to grasp the balance at that moment.
"You have to guide it gently, but you have to move quickly. You cannot allow the medicinal spirit to gradually permeate it while it is affected by external forces. Then, you have to use the most sudden method to fix it in place before it can 'react'.
"Solidify the exterior and maintain the circulation inside …"
Nini's guidance did not stop. At the same time, she had already pressed her hands on the pill furnace with Wang Zhong. To a newcomer, refining a level-8 Yin and Yang Pill was simply too difficult. When she considered the success rate of forming the pill, Nini did not hesitate to join in. A wave of water elemental ice power that was even more proficient than Lao Wang's continued to spread across the surface of the Abstruse Ice Copper Furnace. It formed an alternation of yin and yang outside the pill furnace with the fire that Wang Zhong controlled. It seeped in and guided the medicinal spirit.
Wang Zhong was also fully focused. Whether he succeeded or not depended on this deal. At that moment, the alternating spiritual power of both of them had formed a perfect cycle on the surface of the pill furnace, forming a mutual reaction and attraction with the medicine spirit in the pill furnace.
At this moment, even Nini did not say anything. The two of them followed the reaction and traction and allowed their spiritual power to 'jog' for around 100 laps. Not only did their spiritual power seep in, they even felt that their souls, heartbeats, and pulses were completely in sync with the rhythm of the medicinal spirit rotating in the pill furnace.
When everything was perfect, causing them to feel as if the pill furnace was them and they were the pill furnace, their hearts suddenly reacted. Not only did the spiritual power in their bodies, even their soul consciousness, heartbeats, and pulses suddenly became fixed at this moment!
The entire world seemed to have completely frozen at this moment. The buzzing and trembling pill furnace became quiet, and the rotating black and white became a fixed diagram of yin and yang.
Then, a ray of white light flashed in their hearts at the same time and broke through the frozen darkness. When they released their consciousness again, Lao Wang instantly felt that even though they were separated by the thick pill furnace, he could smell the fragrance that wafted throughout the house.
Success!
Nini was a little excited and a little proud. Her master's talent in alchemy was not just for show. He had succeeded in refining a level-nine elixir on his first try. This was his first time refining a level-eight elixir. Moreover, it was the Yin and Yang Elixir, which was more difficult among the level-eight elixirs. Yet, he had still passed on his first try!
Unfortunately, this kind of thing could only be admired by herself. It was very difficult to brag about it. Just like the last time when she went back and told those little bitches that her master had directly succeeded in refining pills for the first time. Those little bitches were stunned to say that she had turned into a pig's head and didn't believe her at all. This made Nini stifled for a long time. Hmph hmph hmph, if there was a chance, she would definitely let those little bitches witness it with their own eyes!
At the side, Wang Zhong wiped his sweat. The refinery process had lasted for almost nine hours. Furthermore, he had to control the transition between yin and yang at the beginning and the end. This was many times more difficult than refining the Vitality Supplement Pill. He had consumed two Vitality Supplement Pills just to replenish his spiritual power. What was even more terrifying was the exhaustion of his mind. Even with the strength of his soul, he felt extremely exhausted after refining this batch of pills.
Luckily, he had succeeded. If he had failed at the final juncture, regardless of whether it was his energy, physical strength, materials, or other aspects, he would have lost his life.
He rested for a few minutes before opening the lid of the pill furnace. The intelligence of a level-8 elixir was obviously much higher than that of a level-9 elixir. He had been idle for a few minutes, but the intelligence that was wrapped around the elixir had not completely dispersed. Instead, they all flew out from the pill furnace. Furthermore, there were clearly more of them than when he had refined the Vitality Supplement Pill in the past. Even though Lao Wang's eyes and hands were quick and he was prepared, he still missed seven or eight elixirs and flew around the pill house.
These elixirs with intelligence flew around extremely quickly. It took a lot of effort before he managed to collect all of them into a box. When he counted them carefully, there were a total of 36 elixirs.
"Master, you're too awesome! This number is really good. 36 is a Heavenly Strength number. It looks like it's the will of the heavens. " Nini chattered continuously and flattered him. Of course, to her, this was definitely not flattery. She was simply stating a fact.
"What are the effects of the completed pills?" Lao Wang took a look and had a rough judgment. He still had to consult Nini's opinion. After all, he was new and inexperienced, while Nini was a professional.
"Master, Master, you don't even need to look to know that they are at least 70% -pills! The quality of this batch is too good! "There was no lack of flattery, but this time, Nini did not exaggerate the truth.
The number of completed pills refined from each batch was actually the most basic condition for a first glance. To be able to produce a Heavenly Strength number, no matter how bad the quality was, it would not be too bad. He did not dare to say that it was 70%, but it was definitely 60%.
This was similar to Wang Zhong's judgment. A conservative estimate was between 60% and 70%. The first batch of level-8 pills could be said to have exceeded his standards. Of course, one of the key factors was that he had borrowed Nini's help in the final batch of pills.
Lao Wang was very satisfied. He swallowed a Vitality Supplement Pill to replenish his vitality and meditated to calm his mind, allowing his tired soul to recover to a certain extent. He only needed to rest slightly before he immediately raised his spear for the second round.
"You have to strike while the iron is hot. Open another batch!"
There were a total of 10 batches of medicinal ingredients and 10 batches of pills. The refinery process over the next four to five days was surprisingly smooth. It was even smoother than Wang Zhong and Nini had expected.
None of the 10 batches of pills failed. The quality was good, and there was an average of 70% -pills. There was also one batch of 90% -pills. Furthermore, the number of pills produced was extremely high. In total, there were a total of 403 pills. Basically, there were around 40 pills per batch. The first batch was considered relatively low.
With such results, it was very obvious that the success of the first batch of pills was not a coincidence.
The difficulty of the Yin and Yang Pill was the exchange of yin and yang. Back on Earth, Wang Zhong, who possessed the Great 5 Elements Constitution, had come into contact with the exchange and fusion of the 5 Elements. Even though the nature of the two of them was different, the balance and control between different powers was definitely what Lao Wang relied on to make a living and his special skill. This allowed him to be exceptionally proficient in balancing the yin and yang. The more he practiced, the more he learned.
Nini had started to feel that this kind of monstrous performance was not strange at all. Even though she would occasionally scream in shock, most of the time, it was just to express her admiration for her master. In any case, no matter what heaven-defying performance her master had in pill refinery, Nini would no longer feel that it was impossible.
When he left the pill house, Lao Wang was so tired that he could not open his eyes.
He basically had no use for the Yin and Yang Pill. Other than keeping three pills as a souvenir, he threw the remaining 400 pills to Nini and asked her to bring them to the Heavenly Treasures Street for Uncle Sea and Old Cow.
However, when he returned to the mushroom house, he had an exhausted expression and fell asleep. This caused Jhonas, who happened to see this, to have many thoughts.
According to the normal process, when Boss went to the pill house for a few days and came out, he would definitely have a large pile of pills for Jhonas to sell. But this time, not only were there no pills for Jhonas to sell, he also had a dispirited expression and did not even want to say a word … This was definitely a failure.
He had no intention of looking down on Jhonas, but in any case, Jhonas managed to find some balance in his heart.
Like I said, how could it be so easy to produce a pill refinery genius that was even more impressive than the Shell race's ancestor? If he was so impressive in fighting and also so impressive in pill refinery, how could he, as someone by Wang Zhong's side, live confidently and brightly in this world?
Concocting the Essence Replenishing Pill must have been Boss's blind luck. There was just a pill that coincidentally suited Boss's nature, but he actually dared to say that he was going to concoct a level-eight pill. Look, this was the price of being 'arrogant' … Forget it, forget it, there was no need for him to ask. He had concocted a level-eight pill for a few days, yet he had not succeeded at all. Who knew how big of a loss he had suffered. Only the heavens knew how much anger Boss was suppressing in his heart right now.
There were countless legends about the Netherworld River. There were terrifying, beautiful, and destructive ones. Almost every civilization had their own legends and stories about the Netherworld River. Any intelligent life in a difficult and despairing environment would rely on faith. Furthermore, the entire divine territory could not explain the reason for the existence of the Netherworld River. They could only feel that it was powerful.
However, among all these different legends, there was a common point. They all mentioned the Netherworld King. They unanimously believed that the Netherworld River had its own consciousness. It was said that this was a feeling that some Gold Core experts living in the underground world felt.
This was originally just a legend. Just like the great gods in other legends, the Netherworld King was an unreachable existence.
However, from an unknown point in time, this news had spread everywhere in the underground world. Many people solemnly declared, "The Netherworld King has appeared. He is choosing the apostle of the Netherworld River. The power of the Netherworld River is rising, and the underground world is about to move towards glory. Meanwhile, the mysterious Netherworld River Wanderer and the second person who has been received are the apostles of the Netherworld King. The Netherworld King will grant the apostles eternal life."
This rumor allowed those who had been itching for the mysterious Netherworld River Wanderer to obtain the most satisfactory explanation. Deep in their hearts, they also felt this way. Although the Wanderer was powerful, he relied more on the power of the Netherworld River and was not a top expert. Now, everything had been perfectly explained.
Most importantly, the will of the Netherworld River needed to expand and needed apostles who could walk on land. The great Netherworld King would grant the power of the Netherworld River. This was a fatal temptation.
The wind and clouds stirred, and the entire underground world was drawn in! Living in the underground world, who did not respect and fear the Netherworld River? Who did not know the unparalleled power of the Netherworld River? Who did not want to become the spokesperson of the Netherworld River? Just the fact that they would not be harmed by the Netherworld River was enough to make everyone go crazy.
No one doubted the authenticity of the Netherworld King. The existence of the Wanderer and the continuous trading of the Netherworld River red spider lilies was a new phenomenon that had never occurred in the underground world. They had long guessed that this definitely meant something. Now, the secret information had finally been revealed. Everything had a reason that could be explained, and everything had a greater meaning. "The Netherworld King will rise from the underground world, and the will of the Netherworld River will be extended."
At the same time, the various large Factions had probed countless times and used many divine weapons to observe the Wanderer. They were 100% sure that the so-called Wanderer was merely a Foundational Stage. This was illogical! How could the Netherworld River choose a weakling? Furthermore, the information that the Wanderer was merely an apostle of the Netherworld King made everything reasonable. His power had been "bestowed" and had been borrowed from the Netherworld King.
Of course, they did not dare to underestimate the Netherworld River Wanderer because of this. He was the first. Just as he had said, he was the first apostle of the Netherworld King. Everyone could see how close he was to the Netherworld River because of his identity as the first apostle. The Netherworld River would automatically protect his safety and hide his whereabouts. It would even open the gates of the Netherworld River for him, allowing him to instantly reach the Netherworld River basin that he wanted to go to.
Thus, the underground world went crazy when they heard this news. The treasury of the Netherworld River was opening, and they had personally seen how the Netherworld River Wanderer squandered the treasures of the Netherworld River!
Some experts also started to awaken. This matter was sufficiently big. The power to ascend in the entire divine territory was in the hands of the civilizations on the ground. The Heavenly Gates were also the key, which was equivalent to closing the underground world. Furthermore, the Netherworld River might be the only possibility of breaking through.
Hell Island
Grai carefully touched the Netherworld River. His face was slightly pale. He could feel the terrifying power of the Netherworld River, and his soul was being pulled by an invisible force. It was just like the feeling when he entered the Fifth Dimension through his soul on Earth. However, this was not the Fifth Dimension that could be shaped by soul energy. Grai was very clear that with the density and pressure of the divine territory, once his soul, which was only at the peak of the Foundational Stage, left his body, it would be instantly shattered by the divine territory. Then, those fragments would be devoured by the Netherworld River.
There was no room for him to resist.
He felt cold, and the entire world no longer had any temperature. His body became colder and colder, and warmth was rapidly draining from his body …
A hand suddenly landed on Grai's shoulder, and a relaxed warmth was instantly transmitted to him. In an instant, the power of the Netherworld River started to retreat, and his soul was no longer being pulled.
"Hu!"
Grai suddenly retracted his hand and turned around. When he saw the smile on Mu Zi's face, he shook his head and laughed bitterly. "I still can't do it. If I want to absorb power, the Netherworld River will immediately break the safe boundary."
"It's a pity, but you have adapted to the Netherworld River. The power of the Netherworld River will no longer harm you. Thus, sooner or later, you will be like me and find a way to communicate with the Netherworld River," Mu Zi said with a smile. Only by communicating with the Netherworld River could one absorb the power of the Netherworld River without suffering a backlash.
Grai nodded his head. From a certain perspective, the rumors were not wrong. Mu Zi had indeed received the consciousness of the Netherworld River, and no one else could do so.
In Grai's opinion, Wang Zhong, Aiolos, and Mu Zi were definitely the chosen ones of the Earth. Mu Zi could bestow the "Netherworld River Mark" to other lifeforms and prevent them from being harmed by the Netherworld River. This was a key point in creating the "Netherworld King". Of course, they would not bestow it easily. This was also the key to gaining a foothold.
Furthermore, the hidden trump card was that Mu Zi could bestow the Netherworld River Mark and take it away.
Mu Zi guarded the Netherworld River, while Grai acted as the second mover. This way, it would be easier to cover for Mu Zi's existence. At the same time, Grai was more flexible in dealing with these matters.
Grai came up with a contribution strategy, which was the mission issued by the Netherworld King. Whoever completed it the best would obtain Netherworld River contributions, and once they accumulated enough contributions, they would obtain the Netherworld River Mark. At the same time, there was another method, which was opportunity. Anyone who had the opportunity could become an apostle of the Netherworld River without making any contributions.
Needless to say, Grai had seen through the rhythm of the underground world. He was crazy, unscrupulous, and liked to take risks. These two methods allowed the two of them to be in a relatively safe situation.
