"I'm here to stay for a few days to help Xiao Huo evolve," Lin Jin suddenly said. Lin Jin suddenly said. He had mentioned this to Shang'er before but the other monsters didn't know about it yet.
When Little Five heard this, she was visibly stunned and uncomfortable.
Once inside the cave, Shang'er secretly told Lin Jin that every time he left, Little Five would sneak down the mountain to meet someone in private.
It was obvious that if Lin Jin didn't leave, she wouldn't dare to go either. That would basically mess up Little Five's plans.
Lin Jin smiled but didn't say anything.
Shang'er helped Lin Jin arrange his luggage and bedding. Every time Lin Jin came, she would serve him meticulously.
Outside, Goldy had gone out to patrol his' territory '.
Based on Lin Jin's understanding, Goldy had already claimed the nearby mountains as his territory. The beasts in the forest were all submissive after being taught a lesson.
If they didn't obey, Goldy would beat them up until they submitted.
Meanwhile, the little foxes were playing with Xiao Huo. Now that there was a shadow wolf, they were even more excited as they played outside the cave.
Lin Jin wasn't in a hurry. He had to first refine the pill for Xiao Huo's evolution.
This process might take an entire day.
The pill he was going to refine this time was called the 'five elemental fire pill'.
It sounded like one pill, but in reality, there were five of them. The most difficult part was that these five pills had to be refined in one furnace.
It was Lin Jin's first time seeing a 'five elemental fire pill' in the museum so he had no idea how valuable this pill recipe was. Previously, he had the Visitation Hall's visitors collect the ingredients required to refine the five elemental fire pill.
This time, Lin Jin had brought them all.
Before he began refining the pills, Lin Jin glanced at Shang'er who seemed to be hesitant to speak. Knowing that she was worried about Little Five, after some thought, he asked her to call Little Five in.
Soon, Little Five came in and bowed. "Master Lin, is there anything I can help you with?"
Lin Jin had her sit down.
Truth be told, Lin Jin was troubled. He wasn't that old himself. In fact, he might even be younger than Shang'er and Little Five. But now, he was acting like a parent. Not only did he have to restrain them, but he also had to teach them.
"I heard from Shang'er that you've been going out a lot lately?" Lin Jin asked.
While Little Five might stubbornly refuse to listen to Shang'er, she wouldn't dare to disobey Lin Jin's orders.
At Lin Jin's question, Little Five knew what was going on so she nodded and admitted it.
"Master Lin, I know that my sister cares about me. But this time, she is biased against Xu Lang. Xu Lang and I are in love. No matter what happens, I am willing to accompany him for the rest of his life without any regrets." Xiaowu was extremely intelligent as well. She immediately struck first to gain the initiative.
He first expressed his thoughts and occupied the high ground.
With this, Lin Jin found it difficult to persuade her to give up.
The forest was huge.
If it were his own daughter, he would definitely have a headache. Although not, Shang'er and the other little foxes were his disciples, so they were not much different from his own daughter.
Now, there was a daughter who was rebellious and thought that everything she did was right. She wanted to fall in love with someone, and she didn't care about anything else. She was a little like a child who had entered puberty.
What else could Lin Jin say?
Could he order her not to do that?
Lin Jin racked his brains. Fortunately, having lived two lives, he had read all sorts of novels and melodramatic television dramas so he had plenty of references to deal with situations like this.
After giving it some thought, Lin Jin decided to use tactics. After all, he couldn't afford to use brute force against a rebellious adolescent child. "Little Five, humans and monsters are different. You should know this so I won't go into detail. I've met that Mr. Xu of yours before but he was unconscious back then and he never spoke so I don't know what kind of person he is."
Xiaowu immediately said, "Xu Lang is a good person. He's well-educated, knowledgeable, and talented."
Her words were filled with affection.
Lin Jin shook his head inwardly. Xiaowu was too naive and naive. How could a person only have good points? When you only see the good points and ignore the bad points, that's when you're at your most dangerous.
However, Lin Jin couldn't say this out loud. Even if he did, the hot-headed Xiaowu wouldn't listen to him.
"Does he know you're a fox demon?" Lin Jin asked.
Xiaowu nodded.
Lin Jin wasn't surprised by this. They had only met in their dreams so only a fool wouldn't notice something amiss.
It was no wonder Xiaowu was so resolute. She thought she knew everything and had considered everything.
Was she really that thorough?
Definitely not.
Not far away, Shang'er was eavesdropping on their conversation with a spell. She gritted her teeth in anger and rubbed her palms together, wanting nothing more than to rush in and scold her incompetent younger sister.
However, with Lin Jin around, she didn't dare to act recklessly.
She could only endure it and keep crushing the rocks around her to vent her anger.
Lin Jin was in a hurry to pelletize so he could only resort to another tactic to deal with Xiaowu who was being stubborn.
"Xiaowu!"
"Master Lin, please speak."
"Do you know that there's a saying in the scriptures that goes, 'a teacher for a day' …"
Lin Jin didn't finish his sentence and waited for Xiaowu to finish.
The latter was smart enough to say, "A father for life. Master Lin, Xiaowu has always been respectful to you and this will never change."
Lin Jin nodded.
That was good enough.
"Since you call me Master Lin, then shouldn't you listen to me when it comes to your marriage? At the very least, you have to let me meet your Darling Xu. He should come visit me too, "Lin Jin said.
This was etiquette and Xiaowu understood it. She couldn't argue with him.
Not only was she not angry, she was happy.
Thinking that Master Lin had acknowledged her choice, Xiaowu was secretly delighted. If Master Lin nodded, her sister wouldn't say anything else.
She said happily, "Master Lin, I'll get Darling Xu to visit you now."
"Alright, go ahead." Lin Jin didn't stop her.
Since he couldn't stop her, he would let her go. As for what was going on with Darling Xu, they would talk about it after meeting him.
Xiaowu ran out happily. She was already a Rank 3 monster and had learned some of the spells Lin Jin taught her. Even if she went out alone, it wouldn't be a problem.
Right after Xiaowu left, Shang'er came in.
It was obvious that she was angry.
Angry at Lin Jin.
She had wanted Lin Jin to help restrain Xiaowu so she wouldn't have those unrealistic dreams. But not only did Lin Jin not try to stop her, he even allowed her to go free. This obviously infuriated Shang'er.
"Master Lin, how can you let Xiaowu do as she pleases?" Shang'er asked.
Lin Jin replied, "The more I try to restrain her, the more it will backfire. Why don't we see if Xiaowu's Darling Xu has the guts to come to Mount Zoroku first?"
Shang'er had no choice. This was all she could do at this stage.
Lin Jin had her guard the cave entrance before he began pelletization.
He used the same beast bone furnace. It was a decent furnace. The beast soul inside might be a nuisance to others, but to Lin Jin, it was negligible.
His oppressive might was enough to suppress that beast spirit.
This time, Lin Jin brought enough furnace fire amulets so he didn't need to use external fire. He only needed to insert the fire amulets and the furnace would burn. This was a profound pelletization method.
Pelletization of the five elemental fire pill was no easy task. Fortunately, Lin Jin had been practicing pelletization and the museum had provided him with detailed instructions so he should be able to succeed.
However, just in case, Lin Jin prepared enough materials for at least two attempts. In other words, if he failed, he could try again.
With everything ready, pelletization began.
Lin Jin waited until the furnace glowed crimson before tossing in various materials.
Some of these materials were rare spirit herbs, while others were rare crystals. Every single one of them was worth a fortune. Lin Jin did a rough calculation. The cost of a five elemental fire pill might be more than fifty thousand silvers.
And this was a conservative estimate. If he were to buy it as a commodity, it would cost at least a hundred thousand silvers.
If he were to meet an unscrupulous merchant, two to three hundred thousand silvers was a possibility.
The various herbs gradually melted in the furnace. The impurities turned to ash, leaving only the essences behind as colorful medicinal energy gathered at the top of the furnace.
But this was only the beginning.
The five elemental fire pill was made from five pellets in one furnace.
Now, it was time to condense the earth fire pill.
Seven types of spirit herbs and two types of crystals were tossed in, turning them into pill energy. The earth fire pill's pill energy was the heaviest. Relatively speaking, this pill was easier to condense.
After some effort, Lin Jin saw a cloud of earth-colored pill energy slowly sink to the bottom of the furnace.
Next, he only needed to use the pellet condensation technique to condense the pill's body.
But before that, he had to condense the other four types of fire pills.
Throughout the entire process, Lin Jin was meticulous and engrossed.
Shang'er watched on curiously. It was her first time witnessing someone doing pelletization and she was clearly amazed by the wonders of the process.
Lin Jin tossed in eight types of spirit herbs, one type of spirit stone, and a fire elicitation talisman to begin refining the fire pill's pill energy. This was the second fire pill.
During this process, Lin Jin encountered some danger. The fire inside the furnace was too strong and when he tossed in the ingredients, flames almost spilled out. Given how terrifying pill fire was, if it were to burst out, it could instantly engulf everything within a hundred feet of it in a sea of fire, incinerating everything in its path.
Lin Jin was startled. Fortunately, he managed to stabilize the situation. Cold sweat trickled down his back as he hurriedly had Shang'er retreat from the cave.
If anything were to happen, Shang'er wouldn't be affected.
However, Shang'er seemed to have read Lin Jin's mind. Instead of leaving, she stayed by his side.
Lin Jin didn't reject her offer.
After all, it was his first time refining a pill at the level of the five elemental fire pill so it was normal for some minor problems to occur. Fortunately, Lin Jin managed to stabilize the situation in time. Next, he had to be more careful. He would rather spend more time and more fire elicitation talismans just to be safe.
Half an hour later, the Burning Flame Pill's Pill Qi was successfully condensed, just below the pill furnace.
If the earth and fire pill energy was the base, then the fire pill energy was the source of all the fire energy in the furnace.
After refining the fire pill energy, Lin Jin only needed to rely on the fire pill energy to produce the other three fire pills.
This was a unique pelletization technique, pill energy to nourish the pill.
If Shi Wenjun and the others were to see this, they would surely be shocked. This technique was definitely a high-level pelletization technique. Forget the Shi family, even the world's top pelletization experts would be amazed by this.
Lin Jin wiped the sweat off his forehead. The first two types of pill energy were the keys to the five elemental fire pill. In other words, he had passed the most difficult hurdle. The next three types of fire pills would be relatively easier.
