"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk!" The Single Slice of the Universe pierced through the red robe and into his body.
"Pfft!" Monk Zhi Shan spat out a mouthful of blood and turned to look at Chu Li. His eyes were cold and devoid of human emotions.
Then, the red robe stuck to his body like a deflated balloon and fluttered, lifting him into the air like a golden eagle flying into the distance. He was as fast as a ghost, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.
"Pfft!" Chu Li spat out a mouthful of blood and spat out all the injuries he had sustained.
He only had a few blade energies left in his body so he could not give chase.
"Bam!" Zhou Jinchun rolled down from the roof and the ground shook.
Ignoring the pain, he quickly got up and staggered forward. "Junior Brother Zhao, what about the Detachment Pills?"
Chu Li shook his head and went to the wall. He pulled out the sun chakram and put it into his sleeve before sitting on the cattail hassock again. "I need to get a new alchemy furnace."
"Why didn't they come to help?" Zhou Jinchun was displeased.
Chu Li replied, "They're all injured and can't fight back. They'll only die if they come. They're also a burden! Senior Brother Zhou, you go. I need to heal myself and continue refining pills. Don't worry, I'll make the Detachment Pills! "
"Alright." Zhou Jinchun sighed in relief.
He was thankful as long as the Detachment Pills were fine.
Li Ruolan, Ji Xin, and Lu Zhen appeared in the courtyard. They looked at the bloodstains on the ground and the condition of the alchemy furnace with burning eyes.
Lu Zhen was not embarrassed to see Chu Li again. Instead, she stared at the alchemy furnace with her beautiful face tensed up like a block of ice. Her body emitted a cold aura that deterred others from approaching her.
Li Ruolan quickly asked, "Junior Brother, has Monk Zhi Shan left?"
Chu Li nodded.
His face was pale as he sat on the cattail hassock without moving. He said calmly, "He's injured so he won't come back for now. You can refine pills in peace. Senior Sister Li, get another alchemy furnace. Hurry up!"
"Okay, okay." Li Ruolan quickly answered. "There are two more alchemy furnaces in the residence!"
She glided away. Soon, four strong young men carried the alchemy furnace into the courtyard.
The alchemy furnace had already been cleaned, so Chu Li heated it up. When it reached a certain temperature, he lifted his hand and opened the lid of the alchemy furnace. The fragrance of medicine filled the air again.
He lifted the cauldron with one hand, turned it upside down, and patted it hard.
“?? Drop Beizhuo? Tomb of Indica? Eh? What is it called?
Ji Xin stepped forward to help Chu Li. He channeled his energy through his hand to block the scorching heat, but he soon realized that the alchemy furnace was much heavier than what Chu Li had portrayed it to be.
Chu Li threw the old alchemy furnace aside and continued to add fire to the new alchemy furnace. He covered the furnace lid to hide the medicinal fragrance.
"Alright, you guys can go back to your own business," Chu Li said. "We'll be able to see the Detachment Pill tomorrow."
"Can you really refine it?" Lu Zhen's voice was hoarse.
Chu Li smiled. "Don't worry, Senior Sister Lu, it'll be fine!"
"Alright!" Lu Zhen nodded lightly and turned to leave.
After the crowd dispersed, Chu Li sat alone on the cattail hassock in the courtyard and continued to refine pills.
When the fire had stabilized, he got up and started practicing the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms again.
The original blade energy had completely dissipated. Now, it seemed that if it was not for the Single Slice of the Universe, Monk Zhi Shan would not have been hurt by the blade energy.
He had been using the sun and moon chakras to block the blade energy because he was showing weakness. Even if he did not use the sun and moon chakras, his protective divine power would have been able to deflect the blade energy.
However, man proposes, God disposes. This time, he was faced with the indestructible Single Slice of the Universe, which was tough enough for the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture to deflect.
He withdrew his hand into his sleeve and touched the sun and moon chakras.
The moon chakra was bone-chilling while the sun chakra was scorching hot.
The two chakras were so powerful that he envied them. If he could turn them into his own, the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture's power could be fully unleashed. Unfortunately, he did not know how to activate it. The spiritual energy attached to it was the foundation.
The source of this spiritual energy was Monk Zhi Shan, which meant that it was a secret technique of the Reincarnation Temple. It was impossible for them to pass it on to him. He could only try to obtain it in the future. Otherwise, the sun and moon chakras would just be a decoration.
He tried to channel the energy of the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture into the sun chakra. Instantly, his inner energy condensed and compressed in the sun chakra, turning into an extremely solid force. With a "whoosh", it shot out and hit a flowerbed not far away.
The petals flew everywhere and fell to the ground. It was a powerful force.
Chu Li activated the moon chakra again and a whistling sound was heard. He tossed it out and it spun in the air before it finally flew back to his hand. However, he did not dare to take it head-on. The moon did not recognize him and was still spinning at a high speed.
He finally understood the function of the spiritual energy. Without it, the moon would treat him as an enemy. It would hurt both him and the enemy. However, it was powerful enough to be tossed out at a critical moment.
As for the sun chakra, he could use it now.
He was satisfied with these two chakras as he had gained a lot.
—
The next day, the courtyard was still brightly lit before dawn.
Lu Zhen, Li Ruolan, Zhou Jinchun, and Ji Xin had already arrived at the courtyard and were waiting.
Chu Li would remove the red black stones and add them in. He would also pour water on the alchemy furnace and control the temperature.
"It's so complicated!" Zhou Jinchun shook his head.
Ji Xin sighed.
Everyone had their own specialties. If he were in Chu Li's shoes, he would not know what was going on inside the alchemy furnace.
"Bang!" Chu Li suddenly pushed his palm forward and all the black stones flew up and fell to the corner of the wall.
He poured a bucket of water on the alchemy furnace and white steam rose.
Chu Li stood in the white steam like an immortal. Everyone was amazed and could not help but ignore his ugly face.
"Bang!" Chu Li hit the alchemy furnace with his palm and let out a muffled sound.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang." Chu Li hit the alchemy furnace with his palm energy one after another. He walked around the alchemy furnace with an inexplicable rhythm. Finally, he circled the alchemy furnace six times and slowly put his palm in front of his chest.
"Is it done?" Zhou Jinchun asked impatiently.
Chu Li said, "You can open the furnace now."
"Let me do it!" Zhou Jinchun picked up the lid of the alchemy furnace and put it aside gently. Then, he poked his head into the furnace and retracted his head. "There's no smell of medicine."
He thought that it must be the smell of medicine, but he did not smell anything. It was clean and refreshing. There was only a pile of soybean-sized pills inside.
Chu Li slammed his palm on the alchemy furnace again, and a string of pills flew out. He caught it with a box. The box was covered with a plain white silk, and the round, flawless pills, which were the size of soybeans, were warm and translucent. They were black and pure.
Chu Li looked at these pills and smiled. "They are indeed Detachment Pills!"
He took one out and popped it into his mouth. He chewed it slowly and tasted the medicine. After a while, it turned into saliva and flowed into his stomach. It turned into a pure energy that flowed through his body. He was instantly energized, his blood flow seemed to speed up, and his body heated up.
He divided the pills into three portions, four pills in one portion, twenty pills in another, and ten pills in the remaining portion.
Li Ruolan passed the jade bottles to Chu Li and he put them into the bottles. He then passed the jade bottle with twenty pills to Lu Zhen. "Senior Sister Lu, take one each morning and night. Make sure to eat more birds. I think you'll recover in about ten days."
Lu Zhen hesitated for a while before she took the bottle.
At this time, she suddenly became worried about personal gains and losses. There were only twenty pills, and she would be able to grow an arm in ten days. It sounded unimaginable, and she couldn't and didn't dare to believe it.
Chu Li smiled. "It's only ten days. You'll know once you try!"
