Time continued to pass as usual.
However, for different people, the same flow of time had different speeds.
After a full two hours, He Yiming finally opened his eyes. Between his brows, there was a look of exhaustion, but in his eyes, there was a look of extreme excitement.
These two hours were extremely difficult for him to endure, but at the same time, they were also extremely happy.
Hao Dong did not hold back as he practiced the Fire Control Handprint countless times. In the process, he did not even hesitate to risk the destruction of the entire cauldron of elixirs.
To be honest, even Hao Dong himself had never thought that at his age, with his composure and steadiness, there would be a day when he would be so irrational.
Although the two of them did not communicate verbally, through the vital energy in the cauldron, He Yiming understood and mastered everything more clearly.
This was how top experts taught each other. What they taught was not only fixed moves, but also countless experiences that Hao Dong had accumulated over hundreds of years. And this was even more important than those stiff hand gestures.
It was precisely because of Hao Dong's wholehearted and unique guidance that He Yiming was able to truly grasp this set of Cultivation Method within two hours.
A gratified smile appeared at the corner of Hao Dong's mouth. His heart was finally completely at ease.
The absolute art that he had studied for his entire life finally had the best successor. However, the only regret was that this person was not a disciple of the Grand Divine Wind Palace. Moreover, since he was not a disciple of the Grand Divine Wind Palace, he naturally could not use this imitation of the Nine Dragons Cauldron.
If he used an ordinary cauldron, the effects of this set of skills would be greatly reduced.
However, no matter what, he had done his best …
With a soft sigh, Hao Dong picked up the last herb and said in a low voice, "Be careful, Yi Ming."
He Yiming's expression became alert. Looking at the herb in Hao Dong's hand, the joy on his face immediately disappeared. He nodded solemnly and said, "I understand."
Hao Dong blew gently, and the top of the cauldron opened automatically.
Hao Dong sent the elixir into the furnace at lightning speed. Then, he gently closed the lid.
When the last medicinal pill was placed into the furnace, it was already the final moment. At this moment, even Hao Dong didn't have the time to care about other things. Instead, he wholeheartedly focused on the refining process.
Although he had already hinted that the success rate of the first refinement would not be very high. However, as long as there was a sliver of possibility of success, he would not give up. Instead, he would work 200% to turn this possibility into success.
He Yiming's expression was also extremely solemn. He could feel that the inside of the furnace had already become a world of flames. This was especially true for the flames that danced in the air like two hands. This set of miraculous control techniques was displayed to the fullest.
If Hao Dong had used this kind of speed from the start, then He Yiming would not have been able to find the veins within, let alone learn this set of mystical hand seal cultivation method.
Feeling the waves of fire surging faster and faster, He Yiming's heart was filled with gratitude.
He had already decided that if there was a chance in the future, he would definitely repay this kindness in double.
Although Hao Dong had already displayed his ability to the extreme, even under such circumstances, he did not deliberately expel the power that belonged to He Yiming in the furnace.
In the teaching just now, the power of fire of the two people had already formed a considerable tacit understanding. This was a spiritual communication that was far more powerful than any pale words.
The medicinal herbs in the furnace were churning endlessly. The life force inside had already begun to condense. When this force was completely and perfectly condensed together, it meant that the refining of the elixir was successful. However, if there was a mistake, and the life force inside did not condense together but instead dissipated, then this furnace would become a useless elixir.
Feeling all the subtle changes in the core of the medicinal herbs, He Yiming and Hao Dong were both expressionless. However, their hearts had long been raised to the extreme, and they did not dare to make the slightest mistake.
All of a sudden, the life force inside the medicinal herbs became unstable. The life force that was originally condensing seemed to have shattered from the middle, and was flowing in all directions.
He Yiming's face changed greatly. He had refined elixirs dozens of times on his own. However, in terms of preciousness, even if all of them were added together, they would still be far less valuable than this furnace. However, this sign was not unfamiliar to him.
He knew that this furnace of elixir was most likely a useless elixir.
Nevertheless, the moment this thought popped up in his mind, he heard Hao Dong snort softly.
Following his soft snort, the nine fire dragons on the furnace suddenly lit up.
Inside the furnace, outside the pair of big hands, there were suddenly nine huge fire dragons that were circling endlessly. These fire dragons seemed to have some kind of spirituality. Once they were trapped by the power of fire inside, the exploding life force in the medicinal herbs immediately stopped flowing out and slowly gathered towards the center.
He Yiming was dumbfounded when he sensed everything. He finally understood why Hao Dong praised this furnace to the heavens.
The nine dragons outside actually had such a magical effect. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it no matter what.
With the support of the fire dragons, the life force inside the elixir slowly recovered to its original state, allowing the pair of big fire hands to slowly roast and cultivate it. It wanted to condense the life force of all the herbs into one through a special method.
Between medicinal herbs, through the interaction of fire, the life force within would undergo subtle changes. When all these changes were combined, it would produce a miraculous effect.
This was the greatest effect of a pill formula. Without the guidance of a pill formula, it would be impossible to reverse the process of refining an elixir.
Nevertheless, it was not easy to refine an elixir according to a pill formula meticulously. In particular, it was even more so for a high-grade elixir like the Youth-Retaining Pill.
With the help of the nine fire dragons, Hao Dong stabilized the situation. But even so, he had reached his limit.
The medicinal herbs trapped in the center continued to churn in a half-dead state. Although the life force inside had not dissipated, it showed no signs of being able to condense.
Both Hao Dong and He Yiming knew that this was because some kind of mistake had occurred during the refining process. However, the problem was that they simply could not find the reason.
If it had been an ordinary person in such a situation, they would have given up long ago. However, Hao Dong had been able to cultivate to his current level. His mental fortitude could only be described as terrifying. He just hung there steadily. Under his control, the nine fire dragons used different methods to try and see if they could successfully refine the elixir.
From the beginning to the end, the word 'give up' never appeared in his mind.
He Yiming silently sensed all of this. The medicinal herbs in the pill formula flashed through his mind.
He had obtained this pill formula from the Medicine Man, who had been in possession of it for more than a hundred years. He had thoroughly studied the medicinal herbs required to make the pill formula. At the same time that He Yiming obtained the pill formula, he also learned this knowledge.
At this moment, after sensing the refining process, He Yiming recalled the medicinal herbs and the steps recorded in the formula. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have discovered something.
Finally, his eyes lit up. In that instant, he had figured out the reason behind it.
Immense joy welled up in his heart. The dormant power of fire immediately erupted and surged towards Hao Dong's power.
If He Yiming's power of fire had only just entered the cauldron, it would have definitely disturbed Hao Dong and caused him to mercilessly counterattack. He Yiming would have been injured, and the refining process would have failed completely.
On the other hand, He Yiming's power of fire had been in contact with Hao Dong in the cauldron for more than two hours, and they had almost become one.
After sensing He Yiming's eagerness to try his power of fire, Hao Dong only hesitated for a while before he let go of his control over the Nine Dragons Cauldron and handed everything to He Yiming.
In any case, he had tried countless methods, but he could not condense the life powers in the medicinal herbs. Since that was the case, there was no harm in letting He Yiming try.
Who knew, his heart began to beat vigorously without his control at the next moment.
He Yiming's performance greatly exceeded his expectations.
He Yiming's true energy immediately flowed out like a tide after he took control of the pair of dancing fire waves.
It was only then that he realized how frightening the essential Qi consumed to refine pills this way was. It was definitely not something that could be endured by someone below a Venerable One. He knew he only had one chance. If he failed, he would not be able to try again in a short time.
Ou Yangming focused and used the controlling hand gesture that he had just learned to keep the fire waves surging. But at the same time, there was an additional trace of the Power of Earth in the boundless Power of Fire.
The Earth Power, which was not considered powerful, turned into the sharp Metal Power after it went around the medicinal herbs. Following that, it turned into the Water Power, which was completely opposite to the Fire Power, and the Wood Power, which was full of vitality.
After these forces appeared, they only made a small circle around the herbs. Moreover, the strength of these forces could not be compared with the enormous power of fire.
However, when the conversion of the power of the five elements was completed, the vitality of the herb, which was originally like a stubborn rock, underwent a drastic change.
They began to condense and slowly merged into one.
Hao Dong's face was very colorful. As a bystander, the contents of the pill formula flashed through his mind, and he finally looked relieved.
After comparing the steps of the pill formula and the required medicinal herbs with He Yiming's actions, he came to a sudden realization.
It turned out that the Face Retaining Pill could only be successfully refined with the reincarnation powers of the 5 Elements.
For a moment, Hao Dong admired He Yiming even more.
The fact that He Yiming was able to discover the mystery earlier than him showed how outstanding his observation skills and talent were in the path of alchemy.
He sighed again, 'Why isn't this young fella a disciple of the Spirit Wind King Palace?'
