The moon rose above the treetops. Unknowingly, night had already descended.
Xiao Yan sat in front of the huge green-gold cauldron at the top of the cliff. Hundreds of precious medicinal ingredients floated in the air around him, forming a ring that surrounded Xiao Yan.
A fierce flame burned within the medicinal cauldron. Xiao Yan controlled a couple of medicinal ingredients at a steady pace and threw them into the medicinal cauldron. Under the refinement of the 'Heavenly Flame', those originally green and bright medicinal ingredients gradually changed color. Of course, this kind of change was extremely minute. An ordinary person would have difficulty sensing it. Only an alchemist could clearly see it in his mind by relying on his enormous Spiritual Perception.
The process of refining medicinal ingredients was long and boring. It tested the alchemist's patience. At the same time, it also tested the alchemist's understanding of medicinal ingredients.
The degree of refinement of each medicinal ingredient determined the final result of the refinement. This was directly related to the final result of the refinement of the pill.
The quality of the finished product not only needed to consider the fusion of the medicinal ingredients at the later stage, but also the refinement at the earlier stage. It played a crucial role.
The purity of the medicinal herbs was related to the quality of the medicinal pill itself, and the degree of purification was related to the number of finished medicinal pills. The more medicinal herbs were refined, the more pills would be refined. Otherwise, there would be nothing left.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had already passed.
It was said that there was no time in cultivation. However, refining medicine was not much different. In the end, it required a large amount of time to complete. As the saying goes, where there are gains, there are losses. From a certain point of view, refining medicine was a combination of gains and losses. This was even more so for cultivation.
The roaring flames burned without any change within the green-gold cauldron. Xiao Yan's eyes were tightly shut. Half a month did not cause Xiao Yan to feel the slightest bit of fatigue. On the contrary, he felt that his temperament had become even more stable under the repeated refinement.
Tian Ying and the other two would occasionally watch from afar with Ah Bao. Under the might of the three people, not a single Magical Beast dared to take half a step into this place. The high ranked Magical Beasts that originally resided in the depths of the Xilin Mountain Range had also helplessly retreated to the outskirts of the Xilin Mountain Range. This matter caused the various Magical Beasts in the Xilin Mountain Range to change their expressions. The humans outside the mountain range were also extremely puzzled by this.
"Dammit! What exactly happened in the Xilin Mountain Range? Why have all these high ranked Magical Beasts come here!"
"Eight star Half Emperor level Magical Beasts! Such powerful fellows should normally be cultivating in the depths of the mountain range. Why have they appeared here! "
In the outskirts of the Xilin Mountain range................. of......... They even more............................... of. them even more....................
.................................,.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and, in the Xilin Mountain Range...
In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed.
Time swiftly flowed by without Xiao Yan realizing it. The medicinal ingredients in the medicinal cauldron in front of Xiao Yan had basically been refined into various states. They were either powders, viscous liquids, or some different colored liquids and plasters. There were over a hundred types in total.
On the peak of the mountain, Xiao Yan's seated figure did not move at all. He was like a statue. In the cauldron in front of him, several hundred types of medicinal ingredients that had already been refined were slowly fusing together under the control of the Heavenly Fire.
When medicinal properties clashed, there would be medicinal ingredients that would neutralize them. When medicinal properties were compatible, there would be medicinal ingredients with violent medicinal properties that would fuse together.
The process of fusing medicinal ingredients was slow and long. This step alone took Xiao Yan an entire week's time.
Within the hot medicinal cauldron that was filled with a 'Heavenly Flame', clusters of thumb-sized medicinal ingredient essences were wrapped by the 'Heavenly Flame' as they rotated. Following the pouring in of Xiao Yan's Spiritual Strength, these medicinal ingredients began to approach at an extremely slow speed. An unyielding energy ripple erupted from within the medicinal cauldron the moment they made contact, scattering some of the surrounding flames.
The two clusters of medicinal liquid were just like two wild and violent Magical Beasts. Neither of them was willing to show weakness. Allowing them to fuse together was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. With regards to this, even with Xiao Yan's Spiritual Strength, he could not help but feel a little troubled in his heart.
It was indeed worthy of being a medicinal ingredient used to refine a tier three medicinal pill. This kind of powerful energy fluctuation was not something that those tier two medicinal pills could compare with. Fortunately, even though this process caused Xiao Yan to spend quite a lot of effort, the two clusters of medicinal liquid still slowly fused together under Xiao Yan's powerful Spiritual Strength. However, this was merely the beginning. After this, there were still quite a number of medicinal liquid that had yet to be fused. By the time Xiao Yan had completely fused these medicinal ingredients, another half a month had already passed.
However, just as everything gradually appeared to be on the right track, the medicinal ingredients within the medicinal cauldron that were about to formally enter the pill merging process suddenly emitted a 'puff' sound and turned into a pile of ashes in an extremely abrupt manner.
The sudden appearance of this scene caused everything that Xiao Yan had done earlier to instantly turn into bubbles. His entire person was absent-minded for a moment. Fortunately, not long after, Xiao Yan recovered from it.
Failing to refine a medicinal pill was simply a common occurrence for alchemists. It was just a failure. At the very most, they could just start all over again. The only thing that could be feared was that after failing once, they would not have the courage to face it again. This was truly pitiful.
The first failure did not leave any complicated feelings in Xiao Yan's heart. Instead, it caused Xiao Yan to be even faster in his second refining process. Everything became smooth like flowing water. Even when it came to the crucial steps of refining a tier three medicinal pill, Xiao Yan did not hesitate at all. Just like this, after more than two months, the second batch of medicinal ingredients in Xiao Yan's medicinal cauldron officially entered the pill fusing process.
This process was to separate and fuse the various medicinal ingredients that had been previously refined. After this process, it would be the final step of fusing the pills. As long as this step was passed, it would be the process of condensing the pills and nurturing the pills. This step was the most crucial and important moment in the entire refining process.
It could be said that the success or failure of this step was directly related to the medicinal pill itself. If it succeeded, there was hope for the medicinal pill and how valuable it would be. If it failed, it would turn into a pile of black ashes and become worthless!
At this moment, some cold sweat finally flowed down Xiao Yan's forehead.
