Even though Jiang Chen had intentionally controlled the temperature of the flame and wrapped it with a certain amount of Yuan energy, the True Dragon Flame was still incredibly strong. It caused the temperature of the entire pill concoction room to suddenly rise, and the air was filled with a scorching hot air.
Jiang Chen had a calm expression on his face. His black hair was fluttering in the wind, and his pair of black gem-like eyes were shining brightly. He stared at the sea of flames in front of him without blinking. Within the sea of flames, 48 different herbs were located in different positions, and they were being burned at different temperatures.
If Guo Shan was here, even if he knew about Jiang Chen's methods, he would still kneel on the ground in shock. Smelting forty-eight different herbs at the same time and smelting five different herbs at the same time were two completely different concepts.
Every herb had a critical point to be smelted. As long as the temperature of the flames reached the critical point, the herb would be melted and the impurities would be removed, extracting the essence. If the temperature of the flames wasn't high enough, the impurities wouldn't be removed, and if the temperature of the flames was too high, the essence of the herb would be incinerated, resulting in a huge waste.
Therefore, during the smelting process, the alchemist had a very high level of control over the flames. The alchemist had to concentrate and use his soul energy to sense the critical point of the herbs, then control the temperature of the flames to the critical point. Only then would the impurities be completely removed, and the essence of the herb would be destroyed, resulting in a low grade pill.
This was undoubtedly a very difficult step. Therefore, when an ordinary alchemist refined a pill, they would use the alchemy furnace to adjust the flame temperature. Moreover, due to the difference in the melting point of each spiritual herb, alchemists would refine the spiritual herbs one by one or refine the herbs at the same critical point at the same time. If two different kinds of herbs were to be smelted at the same time, it would often lead to an incomplete refinement or loss of essence. In the end, the grade of the pill would not be high.
Even some experienced alchemists would at most refine a few herbs at the same time. Refining dozens of herbs at the same time like Jiang Chen was doing was simply unheard of. Only those famous Grandmaster Alchemists would dare to do this, and it wouldn't be this easy.
This was Jiang Chen's advantage. He himself was a powerful Saint Grade Alchemy Grandmaster, and his Great Soul Derivation Technique had given him superb perception and control. Now, coupled with his True Dragon Flame, he had such a heaven defying Alchemy method.
Refining dozens of spirit herbs was not an easy task. Jiang Chen needed to find the critical points of more than forty kinds of flames and burn them at the same time. This step took six hours to complete.
"It actually took me six hours. If I was at my peak, I could have done it in minutes."
Jiang Chen shook his head. If these words were heard by Guo Shan or any other alchemist, they would probably spit out a dozen mouthfuls of blood on the spot. They would press Jiang Chen down on the ground and give him a good beating. Jiang Chen's words were a huge blow to all alchemists in the world.
Taking Guo Shan as an example, if he wanted to refine all forty-eight herbs, he would need at least four to five days. As for Firethorn Savage's demon soul, it would take even longer. Including the last step, he would need at least half a month to refine the Profound Six Solar Pill.
"Next, I need to refine Firethorn Savage's demon soul, melt it into liquid form, and then proceed to the last step, fuse it into a pill."
Jiang Chen thought to himself. Under the control of his Yuan energy, the forty-eight herb essences were emitting colorful lights. They looked like drops of crystal, floating in a corner of the sea of flames.
Jiang Chen flipped his palm and took out Firethorn Savage's golden demon soul from his storage ring. The fist-sized demon soul was thrown into the sea of flames by Jiang Chen. The True Dragon Flame turned into numerous fiery dragons and wrapped around Firethorn Savage's demon soul.
Ha!
Jiang Chen let out a cold shout. He adjusted the temperature of the True Dragon Flame to the highest level and started to burn Firethorn Savage's demon soul.
Firethorn Savage's demon soul contained a very powerful energy essence, it couldn't be wasted. Apart from that, the demon soul also contained the purest Yang energy, which was the foundation of Firethorn Savage's demon soul.
To put it bluntly, the demon soul was filled with essence, there was no need to refine it. What Jiang Chen needed to do now was to melt it into liquid form and fuse it with the other herbs.
Melting Firethorn Savage's demon soul was a very difficult task. Not only because of the hardness of the demon soul, Jiang Chen also needed to make sure that the source energy within the demon soul wouldn't be lost. Therefore, he needed to be very careful during the melting process.
Outside the alchemy lab, Guo Shan and Da Huang Dog were sitting across from each other around a stone table. Guo Shan generously took out the wine he brewed using herbs to entertain Da Huang Dog. In Guo Shan's opinion, Jiang Chen's pill concoction this time wouldn't be completed in just two or three days. Therefore, Guo Shan could use this time to learn more about what happened in Misty Mountain in the Qian Province from Da Huang Dog.
"Old man Guo Shan, you're quite thoughtful this time. You even took out your wine to entertain this master dog. Not bad, not bad. You've been following this master dog for a long time, you must have been influenced by this master dog, you're getting better and better at doing things."
Big Yellow said arrogantly as he held a jasper wine cup with his hoof and drank from it.
"Enough, enough! Even the best wine can't stop your mouth! When can you stop being so narcissistic, the sun will rise from the west! Hurry up and tell me all the details of your trip to Misty Mountain!"
Guo Shan hurriedly interrupted Da Huang Dog. When this dog became narcissistic, everything would fly in the sky, run on the ground, and there would be scalpers everywhere. He was just too good at bragging.
When the incident of Misty Mountain was mentioned, Da Huang Dog immediately became spirited. His mouth flowed like a river, and the liquid in his mouth flew everywhere, including Guo Shan's face and head. It was hard to tell if it was wine or saliva.
Guo Shan furrowed his brows. He started to regret sitting here and chatting with this dog. If it wasn't for the fact that he really wanted to know the details of Misty Mountain, he would have flipped the table and left. He would never sit and drink with Da Huang Dog ever again.
Within the pill concocting room, Jiang Chen spent an entire day and finally absorbed Firethorn Savage's demon soul. At this point of time, beads of sweat could be seen on his forehead. If it was any other alchemist, they would have collapsed to the ground by now.
"The next step is to fuse the demon soul into a pill, the most important step."
Jiang Chen's expression turned serious. He didn't dare to waste any time and immediately started the last step, the fusion.
Qian Province, Green Sanctuary Sect. Liu Hong and the other two returned from the Qi Province and met with the Sect Leader, Qing Styx.
"How was it? Did you find anything? "
Qing Styx had almost recovered his strength. He opened his eyes and looked at Liu Hong and the other two.
"Sect Leader, we've found something. That's why we came back to report to Sect Leader. We'll see what Sect Leader will do next."
Liu Hong said.
"Why? What kind of background does this kid have? "
Qing Styx furrowed his brows. With Liu Hong's personality, he didn't kill Jiang Chen right away, but instead came back to report to Qing Styx. From this, it could be seen that this young man must have some kind of background. At least, it was a background that Liu Hong couldn't afford to offend.
"That's right. That kid Jiang Chen isn't from the Qian Province, he's from the Qi Province. This guy is very famous in the Qi Province. We've just arrived in the Qi Province, and anyone we ask would have heard of him."
Liu Hong sighed. This trip to the Qi Province to inquire about Jiang Chen's whereabouts was so smooth that even he didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Initially, he thought that it would be like searching for a needle in a haystack if he had to search for someone in the entire Qi Province. However, he didn't expect that Jiang Chen would be so famous that anyone he asked would know him.
Right now, Jiang Chen's name was known by everyone in the Qi Province. Besides, Liu Hong and the others had gone to the Yellowstone region. In the Yellowstone region, Jiang Chen was like a god. Even a three year old kid idolized him.
"Tell me about it."
Qing Styx said.
"This guy is a disciple from the Qi Province's Black Sect. During the Qi Province competition, he made a name for himself and challenged the Burning Sky Pavilion's Northern and Southern Dynasties in one year. Recently, he's been in the limelight in the Qi Province. He killed all the Blood Devils, Lord Blood Moon, and he even killed the Tianjian Gate's Liang Xiao. I heard that this guy is improving at a very fast pace, and he is favored by Daoist Black. That's why we didn't do anything to him.
Liu Hong told the Green Sanctuary Sect everything that he had found out.
"Nan Bei Chao is a rare genius that only appears once in ten thousand years. I'm afraid the Martial Saint Dynasty has been secretly paying attention to him, and it's almost certain that he will join the Martial Palace in the future. Jiang Chen is really courageous to challenge him to a duel in one year."
Qing Styx nodded his head. He wasn't surprised by this result. A genius like Jiang Chen wouldn't be a nobody.
"Sect Chief, Jiang Chen is a disciple of the Black Sect, what should we do?"
Liu Hong asked. The Black Sect's overall strength was similar to the Green Sanctuary Sect. Besides, if the Green Sanctuary Sect sent their men to the Qi Province to kill Jiang Chen, they wouldn't have any advantage.
"Let's wait and see. We can't afford to offend the Black Sect right now. After all, the Qi Province isn't our territory. We'll let that guy go for now. Tomorrow, I'll recover from my injuries and head to Misty Mountain to kill Firethorn Savage. If I can break through to the Combat Soul realm with Firethorn Savage's demon soul, the Black Sect will be nothing."
Qing Styx said. He would never have thought that when he arrived at Misty Mountain tomorrow, all he would see would be Firethorn Savage's dead body. The idea of letting Jiang Chen go for now would be erased from his mind.
"Alright, I'll listen to Sect Chief's arrangement."
Liu Hong cupped his fist toward Qing Styx. Although he hated Jiang Chen to the core, he understood that it was impossible for him to go to the Black Sect and kill Jiang Chen. Therefore, he could only listen to Qing Styx's arrangement for now.
Black Sect, Guo Shan's mountain peak!
In the evening, after a day and a half of peace, energy ripples suddenly appeared in the Alchemy Sect. Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog were shocked.
"This ripple, don't tell me he has successfully concocted the pill?"
Guo Shan said in disbelief. It had only been a day and a half, and if Jiang Chen had successfully concocted the Profound Six Solar Pill in just a day and a half, it would be too shocking.
