The time Lu Xiaotian spent on the path of alchemy was not much shorter than the time he spent on cultivation. The number of failures he had experienced was uncountable. Naturally, he would not lose his composure just because of two failures, or because Zhao Qifeng, Xu Suqin, and even Xin Hong were looking at him suspiciously.
After two failures, Lu Xiaotian had a relatively good understanding of the fog formed by the Illusionary Mist Immortal Grass.
After this failure, Lu Xiaotian paused for an even shorter time than the first time. After pondering for a moment, he started his third attempt.
The third time, there was no longer any stagnation. Even though Xin Hong was a True Immortal of the Immortal Sect and had seen many things and had seen other Pill Sages concoct pills, she had never seen Lu Xiaotian's pill concoction speed. In Lu Xiaotian's hands, pill concoction was not much slower than cooking a meal. Ordinary Pill Sages would need an incense's time to refine a strand of immortal herbs or other materials. However, Lu Xiaotian only used a third of that time, or even a quarter, to achieve the same results.
Xin Hong wanted to say something but hesitated. She originally wanted to remind Lu Xiaotian that more haste, less speed. However, she saw that Lu Xiaotian was fully immersed in his pill concoction.
This time, the Illusionary Mist Immortal Grass only lost 20% of its fog when it dissolved into the flaming pill liquid. By the time it completely dissolved in the pill liquid, another 10% of it was lost.
However, the remaining seventy percent of the spiritual mist combined with the pill elixir was enough for Lu Xiaotian to pull out three spirit pills at the same time.
A strange fragrance wafted out from the pill furnace, causing Zhao Qifeng, Xin Hong and the rest, who had seen two consecutive failures, to be shocked. Before they could speculate for too long, the white jade pill furnace buzzed and three pills flew out. The surface of the three pills was like a raging fire with white mist rising from the top. It looked like there were living things inside and not dead things.
"Three pills in one furnace. Dao Friend Dongfang's attainments in the Pill Dao are truly shocking. Ordinary Pill Sages cannot compare to you, "Xin Hong praised.
At this moment, Zhao Qifeng's doubts were all gone. From the way Lu Xiaotian had refined the pill just now, it was likely that this was his first time refining this pill. The first two batches of pills failed consecutively, but each failure was different. Although the second batch failed, it was obviously much better than the first batch. As for the third batch, it directly formed pills. Even if the first two batches failed and the third batch could succeed, this kind of success rate had already surpassed that of many pill saints.
More importantly, Zhao Qifeng, Xu Suqin, and the others could all see how focused Lu Xiaotian was when he was refining. He wasn't bothered by their doubtful gazes at all. Even though the relationship between the two sides hadn't eased yet, Zhao Qifeng had to admit that this silver-haired boy's attainments in pill dao were indeed extraordinary. He wasn't just an ordinary first-grade pill saint.
"After concocting so many batches of pills, I need to rest for a while. Also, I need to summarize what I've learned from concocting pills." After refining the first batch of pills, Lu Xiaotian dispelled the doubts of Zhao Qifeng and the others. Ignoring their gazes, he returned to the Yao-Sealing Pagoda and began cultivating.
As for Zhao Qifeng, Xu Suqin, and the others, when they saw Lu Xiaotian's state, he was clearly full of energy. He didn't look like he was going to rest at all. However, Lu Xiaotian had already concocted pills. He had enough capital to be proud. Moreover, while it wasn't that Lu Xiaotian had concocted pills three times in a row without stopping, it wasn't uncommon among pill saints, but it wasn't common. It was reasonable for Lu Xiaotian to want to take a rest.
Once again entering a state of rest in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda, Lu Xiaotian didn't delay and continued refining the Page of Flame Spirit.
In a situation where no other monsters appeared, the rest was simple. Lu Xiaotian cultivated for a while, then concocted one or two batches of pills. Then he rested for a while, maintaining the same frequency of one out of three batches of pills. However, the quality of the Mist Purification Immortal Pills improved a lot. Later on, there were three or even four pills in a batch, all of which were half-mid grade pills. There was even a high grade Mist Purification Immortal Pill.
Not to mention Zhao Qifeng and the other true immortals, even Yun Xia and Yun Li were muttering in their hearts. Seeing Lu Xiaotian becoming more and more proficient in concocting pills, and the quality of the pills he concocted was so high, it was clear that he still retained a considerable amount of strength. Perhaps if he fully displayed it, the success rate would be considerably higher.
However, the success rate of one out of three batches was already more than 30%. Moreover, in terms of quality, it was incomparable to ordinary pill saints. If converted into low grade immortal pills, the value would be even greater. In this case, even Zhao Qifeng, who had always been at odds with Lu Xiaotian, didn't say anything. After all, Lu Xiaotian already had a steady output. No matter what he said, he would quickly be pushed back. In the end, he would lose face. Since that was the case, why bother asking for a snub?
Until the three true immortals, each had six to seven Mist Purification Immortal Pills. Lu Xiaotian had four, Yun Li and Yun Xia each had one. At this time, Lu Xiaotian had already refined more than half of the flame spirit page in his body. However, it would still take some time for him to completely refine it and activate the flame spirit runes' power in his body to completely advance to true immortal. As for the specifics, Lu Xiaotian himself wasn't sure.
The three true immortals each took a Mist Purification Immortal Pill. Lu Xiaotian didn't take any for the time being. Since there were three true immortals on the road, the three of them would just follow.
After taking the Mist Purification Immortal Pills, Xin Hong, Zhao Qifeng and Xu Suqin's speed increased a lot. The thick fog that originally blocked their vision and spiritual sense now reduced the obstruction of the three true immortals to a considerable extent. Originally, many restrictions that were easily triggered or some dangers that were provoked were easy to avoid.
However, there were always exceptions. There were two restrictions that were extremely hidden. Even though the group was extremely careful, they still couldn't avoid falling into them. They encountered a group of wolf head terracotta soldiers formed from fog. They formed a great formation and charged towards the group.
At this time, there were two other true immortals who were surrounded and attacked. They were leading a pill saint in the late immortal stage. The void was filled with bloodstains. The other party's face was filled with sorrow. Among them, two unusually tall wolf head terracotta soldiers each had a white bearded old man on their long spears. They were shouting crazily with the head of a woman whose face was covered in blood.
"It's the fellow daoists from the Great Star Tranquil Sect and the Golden Flame Sect." Xin Hong looked at the tragic situation not far away and couldn't help but shudder. The other party had four true immortals and two of them had fallen under the attack of the wolf head terracotta soldiers. Now that the three of them had barged in for no reason, it seemed like there was one more person. If they couldn't break through the restriction here, their end wouldn't be good.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …" Hundreds of fog arrows vaguely formed a wolf head in the void. They charged towards the pill saint in the late immortal stage, a woman in a green dress.
The woman in the green dress turned pale with fright. She kept retreating.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, Fellow Daoist Bai, save me!" The woman in the green dress wasn't slow. However, as a pill saint, she wasn't good at fighting. How could she fight against the wolf head formed by the ferocious arrows?
