In the blink of an eye, five months had passed since Xiao Yan had begun refining the 'Bodhisattva Return Pill'. During these five months, he had failed to refine the 'Bodhisattva Return Pill' once. After taking out the second set of medicinal ingredients, Xiao Yan was only left with one set of medicinal ingredients out of the three sets that he needed to refine the 'Bodhisattva Return Pill'. In other words, Xiao Yan only had one chance of failing when refining the 'Bodhisattva Return Pill'.
With the first failure, Xiao Yan was even more cautious this time around. The various small errors that had occurred during the previous refinement were all eliminated by Xiao Yan this time around. Although some small unforeseen events had occurred during this period of time, it was fortunate that they did not have any impact on the actual pill fusion process.
"Hu …"
On the top of the cliff, Xiao Yan's statue-like body trembled slightly. His eyes, which had been tightly shut for many months, finally opened once again. His mouth exhaled a long breath. The huge rock that had been suspended high in Xiao Yan's heart had finally been lifted a little.
The long and difficult pill fusion process was finally completed after bitterly persevering for over a month. Fortunately, Xiao Yan did not encounter any accidents this time around. Perhaps it was because his Spiritual Strength was stronger than an ordinary rank three alchemist. However, Xiao Yan was more inclined towards luck. He believed that it was because of his good luck that he was able to safely pass through this stage. In Xiao Yan's words, it was merely a fluke.
Although the pill fusion process had been announced to be over, Xiao Yan's face had already turned pale. Even though he had already become a rank three alchemist, refining a rank three medicinal pill was not so easy. The amount of Spiritual Strength that was needed to be exhausted in this process was similarly enormous. Based on Xiao Yan's current Spiritual Strength, his Spiritual Strength would be completely exhausted after he finished refining the Bodhi Returning Pill.
Of course, if he did not experience the previous failure, his condition would naturally be much better. Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world …
After the pill fusion was completed, he could temporarily breathe a sigh of relief. However, it would not be long before he would once again have to concentrate on the next pill formation process.
Beautiful flames rose within the enormous green-gold medicinal cauldron. A cluster of fist-sized viscous liquid was leisurely rotating within the flames. From time to time, a surge of energy would be emitted from it, causing the surrounding flames to be pushed back a little. Immediately after, the flames would once again pounce ferociously like hungry wolves.
The same scene within the medicinal cauldron repeated over and over again. The battle between the flames and the viscous liquid did not seem to end. Xiao Yan, who was seated on the mountain peak, did not move his body. The Flame Mantra Qi Method followed, and strands of natural energy from the surroundings seemed to be attracted to gather toward Xiao Yan..
While refining medicine, the consumption of Dou Qi was similarly not small. In order to refine those special medicinal ingredients as soon as possible, Xiao Yan had no choice but to expend even more Dou Qi to increase the strength of the Heavenly Flame. After using it for a long period of time, his body would naturally not be able to endure it. To be able to rely on the strength of a Six Star Half Emperor to endure until now was already extremely good.
Xiao Yan had not been sitting for three days.
In the outside world, the original three great beast kings of the Xilin Mountain Range had now been joined by a new Ah Bao. This more or less caused Tian Ying and the other two to feel conflicted emotionally. However, since this person was brought here by Xiao Yan, they naturally could not say much. Although they were usually amiable when they saw him, they had invisibly distanced themselves from him.
Being isolated by these three, Ah Bao felt rather helpless in his heart. He was definitely unable to return to his original home, but there was no place for him to stay in the Xilin Mountain Range. This caused him to be at a loss as to where he should go. He could only place his hopes on Xiao Yan. The latter was very powerful. Since he was able to bring him here, he naturally had his own intentions.
On the other side, Tian Ying and the other two actually did not know how to treat Ah Bao.
In terms of friends, it could be said that they did not know each other, let alone acquaintances. Although Ah Bao had some relationship with Xiao Yan, the three of them had known Ah Bao much earlier in comparison. They were even friends who had gone through life and death with each other. This Ah Bao was truly too unfamiliar.
"Boss, do you think that this fellow will be up to no good? He has been staying on that mountain since two months ago and has been watching Xiao Yan day and night. Who knows if anything good will happen to him."
On a mountain peak, Yan Shi frowned as he stared at Ah Bao, who was standing on a mountain peak closer to Xiao Yan. Both of his eyes involuntarily revealed a worried expression. To them, Ah Bao was ultimately an outsider. No one knew what he was thinking. Once he had ill intentions towards Xiao Yan, it would still be extremely dangerous even with the three of them watching.
"Let's wait and see first. Don't jump to conclusions. It is fine if nothing happens. However, if something happens, we must not allow him to leave alive. Keep a close eye on him in the future. Be careful that he does not do anything that he should not do."
Sky Eagle could not help but frown when he heard this. How could he not understand the meaning behind Yan Shi's words? However, this person was after all brought back by Xiao Yan. Since the latter had chosen to believe him, Sky Eagle naturally had no reason to doubt him. Of course, this was only effective under the premise that Xiao Yan was watching.
Since Ah Bao was able to obediently follow Xiao Yan back, he should naturally be aware that Xiao Yan's fighting strength was far from what an ordinary person could compare with. What made Sky Eagle suspect was that the reason why Ah Bao was obedient was likely because he was afraid of Xiao Yan's strength. If anything happened to the latter, it would likely be troublesome.
Sky Eagle quietly said in his heart. His gaze turned and looked at Xiao Yan, who was currently seated on the mountain peak. He could not help but feel a little worried in his heart. He was not worried about whether the Returning Bodhi Pill could be successfully refined. Instead, he was worried about whether Xiao Yan would be harmed.
This was something that he could not tolerate. It was also something that he would never allow to happen!
He turned his head and looked at Xiao Yan's side.
He had used three days to recover his condition. Even though the effect was not ideal, it was not a problem if he used it to maintain the refinement of the medicinal pill.
After passing the stage of fusing the pill, the next step was to condense the pill.
The so-called condensing of the pill was to further fuse the irregular medicinal strength, causing the medicinal pill to truly take shape. The medicinal strength within the medicinal pill also had to completely fuse into one. Only then could it truly be called condensing the pill.
The final result of condensing the pill would be a perfectly round medicinal pill. The pill fragrance would be released, indicating that the medicinal strength had solidified. It could truly be called a medicinal pill.
As for pill nurturing, it was a process where the quality of the medicinal pill underwent a sublimation. This process completely depended on the alchemist's understanding of alchemy. It tested the alchemist's level in various aspects of alchemy. Ultimately, the quality of the medicinal pill also indicated the alchemist's ability.
