Alchemy skills could not be achieved overnight, because, whether it was the amount of herbs used in the recipe or the control of the fire during alchemy, they all required an extremely high level of experience.
Furthermore, the higher the grade of the pill, the more attention was paid to the details.
It could be said that the slightest mistake in any of the details could lead to the failure of the alchemy or the low quality of the pill. It could even lead to the legendary "furnace explosion".
Of course, it was impossible for Dao Hun to do that.
The seven undeveloped pills in Dao Hun's hands were as white as snow, which meant that Dao Hun had raised the purity of these pills to an extremely high level before placing them in the cauldron.
Therefore, the next step was to control the heat well.
As the number one alchemist in the Holy Region, Dao Hun could easily grasp the recipe and control of fire for any high-grade pill, and he could even refine them to an extremely high quality.
After placing the seven undeveloped pills into the cauldron carefully, Dao Hun closed his eyes and moved his hands in front of his chest, as if he was performing some kind of ritual.
It was not a complicated ritual.
After all, no matter how outstanding an alchemist was, he could not guarantee that every pill he made would be of high quality. Therefore, many alchemists would use rituals to pursue luck.
Dao Hun was no exception.
After a short while, the ritual was completed.
Then, Dao Hun opened his eyes slowly, and a faint purple aura flowed in his eyes. It flashed across his eyes and disappeared very quickly.
Then, Dao Hun carefully removed the lid from the chain and placed it back on the furnace made of purple gold.
"Rise!"
After everything was done, Dao Hun shouted again, and a raging flame rose from the alchemy cauldron.
Everything went smoothly.
Dao Hun's eyes lit up with satisfaction even though he had completed the process thousands of times. Then, he turned around slowly and was ready to leave.
This was because he believed that the shameless person who dared to sneak attack him with the beast trap was waiting for him outside the 1000 Herb Hall.
However, just as he turned around, he suddenly had an ominous feeling. It was the perception of danger that a powerhouse would have.
"Sneak attack?"
That was the first thought that crossed Dao Hun's mind. Then, he heard an extremely loud voice.
"Boom!" A loud sound rang out.
Along with this loud bang, a terrifying scorching sensation as though he was in a volcano pressed down on him. It felt as though the entire stone chamber was engulfed by flames.
"No, it's not a sneak attack! Did the furnace explode? " As the best alchemist in the Holy Region, Dao Hun did not believe that a cauldron would explode in his hands.
However, when the scorching heat swept over, it clearly told him one thing, and that was, the Purple Gold Alchemy Cauldron had really exploded.
This was because, with the structure of this stone room and the restrictions laid down, other than the possibility of the furnace fire rushing out of the furnace after the furnace exploded, there was no other way to generate such heat.
As the number one alchemist in the Sanctuary, his furnace actually exploded just from refining a few high-grade White Frost Dews?
Dao Hun was a little confused, but he still took two steps forward after sensing the scorching aura so that he could walk out of the range of the fire.
However …
He had just taken two steps, and before he could take his third step, he felt an intense pain coming from the bottom of his right foot.
Most importantly, when he felt the pain, he actually felt that he had lost feeling in his right foot for an instant.
"Rumble, rumble …"
Five chains that were shining with different lights finally appeared in front of Dao Hun. They came from the ground, and one of them had even pierced through his right foot.
"Hell Near-life Chains?!" Dao Hun didn't know what to say. He really couldn't understand why the Hell Near-Life Chains would appear in the stone room where the pills were concocted.
After all, not many people knew the rules of entering this stone chamber.
It wasn't a cauldron explosion, but a sneak attack?!
Furthermore, it was a sneak attack by Fang Zhengzhi!
Wait a minute!
Something was not right.
Was it a sneak attack by Fang Zhengzhi when the cauldron exploded?
These thoughts flashed through his mind repeatedly. From the moment Dao Hun realized that something was wrong, to the moment he denied that it was a sneak attack, to the moment he thought that it was a cauldron explosion, to the moment he confirmed that Fang Zhengzhi took advantage of the cauldron explosion to launch a sneak attack on him, these thoughts flashed by very quickly.
However, this was the first time Dao Hun made a wrong judgment when he was being sneak attacked.
Of course, the most important reason was that he did not expect Fang Zhengzhi to know about his habit of refining pills when the first ray of purple light appeared in the sky.
Furthermore, not only did Fang Zhengzhi know about his habit, but he was also able to sneak into the stone chamber and take advantage of the moment when the cauldron exploded to launch a sneak attack on him.
All of this was beyond Dao Hun's expectations, because there were simply too many impossibilities.
Even now …
Dao Hun did not know how Fang Zhengzhi was able to arrange all of these beforehand, how did he sneak into his stone chamber, and how did he know that his cauldron of pills would definitely explode.
Of course, this was not the time to think about these questions. Although Dao Hun did not understand, he still made a defensive move the moment the Hell Near-life Chains appeared.
He forced his body to the side and punched behind him at the same time.
However, Fang Zhengzhi seemed to have predicted all of this. When Dao Hun punched, there was no one in front of him.
"Hmm?!" Dao Hun's heart skipped a beat. He could already foresee what was going to happen after his consecutive misjudgments.
And it was just as he had expected.
Fang Zhengzhi did not stand up at all. From the moment he launched the sneak attack, he had been lying on the ground and slithered under Dao Hun's feet like a gecko.
Then, Dao Hun felt a sharp pain in his other foot.
Another Hell Near-life Chain pierced through his other left foot. Furthermore, the other Hell Near-life Chains were flying towards his arm and throat.
Dao Hun sighed in his heart for the first time …
This was a perfect sneak attack!
Even though he still couldn't understand why Fang Zhengzhi would appear in this stone chamber, he still had to say that compared to the beast trap at the door, Fang Zhengzhi's sneak attack and calculations were worlds apart.
'Could it be that he did it on purpose?'
That was what Dao Hun thought.
In fact, he was right. Fang Zhengzhi did it on purpose.
How could he use a beast trap to deal with the Hallmaster of the Yin Yang Hall, Dao Hun?
Fang Zhengzhi was not that naive. He did it to test whether Dao Hun would be more accurate in judging a sneak attack from the ground or from the sky.
That strike …
Fang Zhengzhi had used a beast trap and Heavenly Descent. Both were used at the same time.
The outcome was obvious.
Dao Hun stepped on the beast trap, but he managed to block Fang Zhengzhi's Heavenly Descent.
Therefore, Fang Zhengzhi chose to attack Dao Hun's lower body without any hesitation.
That was why the Hell Near-life Chains pierced through Dao Hun's right foot.
It was not a coincidence that Fang Zhengzhi appeared in this stone chamber. When the woman told Fang Zhengzhi about the time for Dao Hun to refine pills, she also told him about the layout of the 1000 Herb Hall, the location of this stone chamber, and the method to open it.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know how the woman knew about this. He only knew that he followed her instructions and saw a gigantic purple gold alchemy cauldron.
He knew that the woman did not lie to him the moment he saw the cauldron.
Next, he had to set up his sneak attack …
It was extremely difficult to sneak attack Dao Hun, the Hallmaster of the Yin Yang Hall.
Fang Zhengzhi wasn't naive. He had thought of attacking Dao Hun while he was refining pills, but he knew that he would be killed by Dao Hun the moment he made his move.
Who said that he could not attack when he was refining pills?
It was just a cauldron of pills. Dao Hun did not care about it at all.
Fang Zhengzhi knew very well that this was the real reason why the woman was willing to tell him the location of this stone chamber and the mechanism on the door.
She was sure that Fang Zhengzhi's plan to sneak attack Dao Hun while he was refining pills would fail.
Fang Zhengzhi knew this.
However, he had no choice but to follow the woman's plan. Therefore, he hid under the cauldron as soon as he entered the stone chamber.
Fortunately …..
The stone chamber was not very hot. Even if he hid under the cauldron, he could still stay in it.
What happened next was slightly different. Dao Hun closed his eyes and started "praying" after he placed the "embryonic pill".
Fang Zhengzhi was very impulsive at that moment!
It was as if there were 10,000 ants crawling on his body. He was so agitated that he wanted to slap Dao Hun or kill him with his sword.
However, if Dao Hun died, who would save Yan Xiu?
Fang Zhengzhi was very impulsive, but his rationality told him that he had to suppress this impulse. Therefore, a thought flashed across his mind.
Cauldron explosion!
It was too difficult for the number one alchemist in the Holy Region to make a cauldron explode. However, it was too easy for Fang Zhengzhi.
He could think of almost a hundred ways to make the cauldron explode.
Especially when he had ten acres of medicinal herbs on him, as well as several pots of elixirs that he had taken from the attic, it was even easier for him to do so.
All he had to do was to throw all the herbs into the cauldron and the cauldron would explode.
Then, the cauldron exploded.
Fang Zhengzhi started his sneak attack.
Why did he crawl over?
That was easy to understand because he had been lying under the cauldron all this time. It was actually quite difficult for him to stand up at the first moment.
Fortune and misfortune …
Sometimes, things were really predestined.
Fang Zhengzhi did not stand up to attack Dao Hun immediately. Instead, he crawled under Dao Hun's feet. This allowed him to get close to Dao Hun.
Then, he did not hold back.
After restraining Dao Hun's feet with the two Hell Near-life Chains, he finally started his daring "kidnapping" plan.
Of course, he still had to deal some blows to Dao Hun before carrying out his kidnapping plan. It was just like how he wanted to "go to school", but the "student" resisted and didn't allow him to "go".
What should he do?
Normally, there were two ways. The first was to persuade him nicely and say, "Since you can't resist, you should just enjoy it!"
However, it was obvious that Dao Hun was not someone who could be persuaded nicely. Therefore, he had no choice but to resort to the second method, violence.
Violence from the bottom up?
Actually, he did not have many choices.
Fang Zhengzhi actually wanted to try something new, but he could not think of a more violent and lethal way to attack Dao Hun from this position and angle.
When the three Hell Near-life Chains stabbed towards Dao Hun's arms and throat, Fang Zhengzhi clasped his hands together.
Then, he used all his strength and stabbed upwards without any hesitation!
"Boom!" There was an explosion.
Fang Zhengzhi felt as though his two fingers had hit an iron plate. The strong resistance almost made him feel as though his bones were about to break.
'What the hell?'
'Didn't you say that you can't defend your lower body?'
Fang Zhengzhi was furious because the only way to block his attack was to give up resisting the three Hell Near-life Chains.
He looked up.
Fang Zhengzhi's eyes froze.
Just as he had guessed, Dao Hun gave up attacking with the Hell Near-life Chains. However, he only gave up one, not three.
Two Hell Near-life Chains brushed past his body.
However, Dao Hun's left arm was pierced by one of the Hell Near-life Chains.
As for his right arm …
It was naturally in front of Fang Zhengzhi's attack. Dao Hun covered his crotch with one hand. It was an unsightly pose, but Dao Hun did block it.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi was stunned. He couldn't see Dao Hun's expression because he was wearing a mask. However, he could see the anger in Dao Hun's eyes and the purple air current that filled his eyes.
"I don't believe that you can block me again!" Fang Zhengzhi roared. At the same time, he stabbed upwards with all his might without a care for his own safety.
Dao Hun's eyes were burning with anger, but he had no choice but to cover his crotch with his right arm.
Then …
He saw a cloud of white powder dancing in the air, directly attacking his eyes, like a blooming flower.
