The huge medicinal cauldron, which was entirely green-gold in color and covered with various landscapes of mountains and rivers, landed heavily on the stone platform. When the huge and heavy medicinal cauldron landed, it emitted a buzzing sound when it collided with the stone platform.
Xiao Yan took a deep breath as he gazed at the completely repaired medicinal cauldron. His eyes flashed. After Luo Ao's repair, the Luo Tian Cauldron was even more domineering than before. The cracks all over its body had disappeared, replaced by an even thicker and more stable aura. The azure-gold medicinal cauldron reflected a strange azure-colored light under the sunlight. At first glance, it looked as though a flame was burning on it. When one touched it, one would find that it was not as cold as an ordinary medicinal cauldron, but instead had a faint warmth. It was indeed different from a medicinal cauldron ranked on the Heavenly Cauldron List.
After the surprise on his face, Xiao Yan opened his mouth. As he circulated the Genesis Qi in his body, a raging purple flame spat out from his mouth. After a moment of twisting and turning, it poured into the medicinal cauldron through the fire entry hole. Immediately, it exploded, transforming into a large cluster of raging flames that continued to churn within the medicinal cauldron, raising the temperature of the medicinal cauldron even more.
While the Genesis Qi within Xiao Yan's body was being maneuvered, an unusual phenomenon suddenly occurred on the Heaven Array Stage where he was located. The originally calm symbols on the ground suddenly flickered and spread. They spread to the four sides of the stone stage and stopped along the edges of the four stone pillars. Subsequently, circular light continued to climb until the four stone pillars were completely lit up. Golden light lingered and shot out from the four stone pillars. After which, it gathered at one spot. Finally, it formed a golden formation barrier in the sky above the stone stage. From the looks of it, it should have been left behind by the predecessors.
The tensed emotions in Xiao Yan's heart finally began to relax as he watched the scene in front of him. At the same time, he was also surprised by the tactics of a formation master. To think that there was such a method hidden within these seemingly ordinary symbols. If he had not maneuvered the Genesis Qi in his body earlier, it was likely that he would not have discovered the special connection between these symbols. This was especially the case for the four stone pillars. The drawings on them caused him to be extremely surprised.
Xiao Yan withdrew his mind. His gaze once again landed on the medicinal cauldron in front of him. As the flame rose within it, Xiao Yan waved his sleeve. Light rapidly flickered on his Storage Ring as one medicinal ingredient after another immediately flew out. They were wrapped in Genesis Qi as they floated in the air above the medicinal cauldron. There was a shocking number of them. At a glance, they gave off a beautiful feeling.
The Spirit Casting Pill was a grade 6 pill that had the effect of stabilizing one's Spirit source. Once used, it would strengthen one's Spirit power. It was a rare treasure for alchemists and array masters. Of course, the effects of the Spirit Casting Pill could not be stacked. Hence, one could only use it once in one's lifetime. If one used it more than once, it would no longer be of any use. The ingredients needed to refine it were quite numerous. There were roughly five hundred types, and the majority of them were precious ingredients that could strengthen one's Spirit power. They were priceless existences on the market, and several of them had been obtained by Xiao Yan through luck. At most, he could only use them twice. If he failed, the Spirit Casting Pill would be a complete failure.
Once the pill was formed, the Spirit Casting Pill's special effects would allow one to resist the power of the Heavenly Fire and refine Huo Zhu's body. It was a pretty good choice.
Xiao Yan carefully looked at the pill formula in his hand a couple of times. After memorizing some of the key points in his mind, Xiao Yan finally inhaled a deep breath of air. After which, he slowly exhaled. The instant he lifted his head, a fire glow flickered deep within his eyes. When the temperature within the medicinal cauldron reached a certain peak, Xiao Yan suddenly raised his hand and slammed it onto the medicinal cauldron. The instant a clear collision sound appeared, quite a number of the hundreds of medicinal ingredients that were suspended around the medicinal cauldron rushed into the medicinal cauldron. Soon after, the unceasing raging fire within swallowed them.
Under the wild refinement of the 'Heavenly Flame', waves of turbid viscous liquids surfaced on the surface of the medicinal ingredients. Some of them formed a hard surface, while some of them emitted waves of wild and violent energy that temporarily blocked the attack of the 'Heavenly Flame'. However, Xiao Yan was unconcerned about all of this. He calmed his heart and his cross-legged seated body did not move. Both of his eyes were slowly shut tightly. By relying on his enormous Spiritual Strength, everything within the medicinal cauldron landed in his mind without any mistake.
Four hours later, the medicinal ingredients within the medicinal cauldron had all undergone changes. Under the frighteningly high temperature of the purple flame, all of the medicinal ingredients were completely refined into pure powder and medicinal liquid. After which, they gradually merged together under the exquisite control of Xiao Yan's Spiritual Strength.
The first step had been safely passed. This was indeed within Xiao Yan's expectations. However, the second step, pill fusion, would likely not be so smooth.
It was precisely because most of the ingredients were of similar attributes that there were much fewer medicinal ingredients needed to harmonize the medicinal properties. This was not because there were insufficient medicinal ingredients, but because the Spirit Casting Pill's characteristics were as such. Due to the excessive pursuit of enhancing one's Spiritual Strength, the refinement method was excessively extreme. The Spiritual Strength contained within the medicinal liquid and powder was excessively vast, and the medicinal properties were naturally even more intense. Fusing them together was naturally not an easy task.
At the beginning of the fusion process, the first step was to fuse several medicinal liquids and powders with relatively mild medicinal properties. Once the medicinal properties gradually stabilized, the fused viscous ointment would slowly be mixed together. Although the process sounded simple, truly fusing the enormous medicinal properties within the medicinal liquids together was not an easy task.
Relying on stubborn patience and tremendous Spiritual Strength, the initial fusion process lasted for nearly two hours. Even Xiao Yan's Genesis Qi and Spiritual Strength had been consumed by quite a bit. Fortunately, everything was still considered stable.
Within the medicinal cauldron, most of the originally hundreds of medicinal liquids and powders of different sizes had already been completely condensed, forming a dozen new viscous medicinal balls the size of a palm. The medicinal properties within had basically fused together. Although it was not perfect, it was stable on the same level. At the very least, there would not be any energy riots.
Next, it was time for the remaining dozen medicinal balls to fuse together. If they succeeded, the most crucial step of the Spirit Casting Pill would be considered to have passed.
However …
"Bzz!"
When two of the medicinal balls gradually approached each other under Xiao Yan's control, berserk energy undulations abruptly surged out from the two medicinal balls, ruthlessly slamming into the inner walls of the medicinal cauldron. Immediately, a loud and clear sound wave rapidly spread, causing the entire medicinal cauldron to tremble.
