ROAR!
All spiritual creations of Heaven and Earth possess a degree of sentience. Sensing its impending refinent, the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla transford into a fire dragon, roaring ceaselessly as a show of threat.
The temperature within the secret chamber rose steadily, and even the solid refined iron began to show signs of lting.
The temperature is terrifying. Can His Highness succeed? Waiting outside the secret chamber, Jia Xu felt wave after wave of heat, his expression solemn and slightly worried.
"Rest assured. If His Highness dares to do it, he must be confident!" Zhao Yun said reassuringly. However, his tiger-like eyes remained fixed on the secret chamber’s door, showing no trace of relaxation; clearly, he too was extrely anxious.
Refining Spirit Fire was no joke!
"With soul control spirit, Heaven and Earth reveal holiness, contracting all things, I am the true master!"
Ignoring the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla’s clamor, Qin Wudao began to adjust his state. His heart was as calm as water, and strands of soul power pervaded the entire secret chamber.
For an outsider, refining the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla would require reaching at least the Saint Realm. Even a Heaven Realm peak Martial Artist would be reduced to ashes upon contact with this fire.
Yet, Qin Wudao was only at the Nirvana Realm. His courage to refine the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla stemd primarily from his soul power.
One thing was undeniable: all Alchemists were masters of fire!
The Earth-level Alchemy technique granted by the system included a thod to refine Spirit Fire using soul power. This could be attempted with Profound Level soul power, but it required a certain cultivation base.
Ultimately, a Martial Artist’s realm was fundantal; alchemy, array formation, and artifact refining all required a supportive realm.
This was precisely Qin Wudao’s concern: his soul power was sufficient, but his cultivation realm was too low.
"Go!"
After a mont, Qin Wudao controlled his vast soul power, forming an invisible palm in the Void that reached for the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla. The space it passed through was displaced and distorted.
The approaching threat caused the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla to roar relentlessly, gathering clusters of fire around itself that burned fiercely.
Having just escaped Duan Wanjiang’s control, it did not want to be enslaved again.
In its still-immature sentience, there was only one thought: resist and seek freedom within the flas.
SIZZLE...
The mont the palm imprint condensed from soul power made contact with the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla, a searing sound filled the Void. Sharp pangs of pain, like needles pricking his mind, shot through Qin Wudao.
"Condense!"
Qin Wudao roared, two golden beams shooting from his eyes. His imnse soul power enveloped the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla and forcibly dragged it into his body.
If any outsider had witnessed this scene, they would have broken out in a cold sweat. Drawing an unrefined Spirit Fire into one’s body was tantamount to suicide.
BOOM!
Once inside his body, the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla flared violently, ceaselessly burning Qin Wudao’s ridians and vaporizing his blood. Soon, flas engulfed his entire body.
At a glance, Qin Wudao looked like a man wreathed in fire. Jets of fla erupted from his pores, charring his flesh and blood. The air filled with the scent of seared at.
"Suppress!"
Gritting his teeth against the excruciating pain, Qin Wudao mobilized the Spiritual Energy within his Dantian to seal the flas inside him, constricting the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla’s space to exist. This technique proved very effective. Before long, most of the flas on his body had subsided.
However, he was still far from completely refining the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla. The further he progressed, the greater the resistance he encountered, and the more Spiritual Energy Qin Wudao consud.
At this point, the benefits of his Nine-Turn Nirvana beca apparent. His Spiritual Energy was nearly inexhaustible. Even when consud, a brief circulation of his Cultivation Technique would quickly replenish it.
With abundant Spiritual Energy and formidable soul power, refining the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla was only a matter of ti!
Now, it was all up to ti!
「One day!」
「Two days...」
By the fifth day, Qin Wudao had managed to completely suppress the flas rampaging within his body and force out the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla’s origin.
RUMBLE!
His Earth-level Divine Soul Power surged forth like a divine descent, forcefully crashing into the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla to begin refining its Origin Power.
...
While Qin Wudao was in seclusion, the vast machinery of the Qin Dynasty stirred into action. They searched for the Spiritual dicines required for alchemy, emptying the national treasury and issuing bounties. After a full six days, they had finally gathered all the necessary Spiritual dicines.
"Has the Crown Prince not yet erged from seclusion?" Li Si walked to the outside of the secret chamber, inquiring softly.
"Not yet!" Jia Xu shook his head, growing anxious. Nearly seven days have passed; why hasn’t His Highness erged yet? If not for the powerful aura emanating from the secret chamber, I would have already rushed in to investigate.
Li Si nodded and stood waiting by the side.
Around midnight, Qin Wudao’s voice ca from within the secret chamber: "Pri Minister, please leave the Spiritual dicines and the Alchemy Furnace at the entrance!"
He didn’t ask for the Spiritual dicines to be brought directly into the secret chamber mainly because the temperature inside was too high. This could affect their dicinal properties and reduce the success rate of pill concoction.
"Alright!" Without a second thought, Li Si placed the Alchemy Furnace on the ground, then put the Spiritual dicines inside it. He hesitated for a mont before saying, "Your Highness, His Majesty the Emperor has been awake for five days and wishes to see you!"
"Go tell Imperial Father to rest assured," ca Qin Wudao’s calm voice, echoing around them.
A gentle breeze wafted through. The secret chamber door opened, and the Alchemy Furnace slowly levitated, floating into the chamber.
This Dao weapon... not bad! Inside the secret chamber, Qin Wudao looked at the suspended Alchemy Furnace and nodded in satisfaction. Dao weapons were already the most formidable armants in the Qin Dynasty, and a special one like an Alchemy Furnace was even rarer.
Next, it’s ti for alchemy!
Qin Wudao’s expression turned slightly serious. With a wave of his right hand, the Heavenly Dragon Demon Fla appeared in his palm, radiating intense heat.
The first step in alchemy was to extract the essence from the Spiritual dicines, removing the dross.
It is said that all dicines carry a trace of poison, and elixirs are no exception, but this can be mitigated. The purer the refined elixir, the weaker its toxicity. A perfect-grade, Nine-Pattern Elixir would be entirely non-toxic.
Under the high temperature, Qin Wudao’s soul power perated the Alchemy Furnace, continuously removing impurities from the Spiritual dicines. Seventy-two orbs of light ford within the furnace, exuding a faint herbal fragrance.
The Holy Embryo Pill, an Earth-level pill, is used to treat the Dantian. It requires seventy-two types of herbs and five days of refinent to form...
While removing impurities, Qin Wudao pondered, simulating the alchemical steps in his mind.
Once the impurities were completely removed, he began to fuse the essences of the Spiritual dicines. Initially, he was a little unpracticed, but he grew increasingly skilled, taking a full six hours to condense the essences of the seventy-two Spiritual dicines into a fist-sized elixir.
Next was nurturing the elixir. This crucial step demanded precise control over the heat and his soul power. Any error would result in a failed elixir, rendering all previous efforts void.
Within the secret chamber, Qin Wudao sat with his eyes closed. The light from the fla in his hand illuminated his features, while the Pill Furnace emitted wisps of azure fla, and the fragrance of the forming elixir perated the air.
The surface of the elixir shone with light, eight patterns faintly visible!
An eight-pattern elixir possessed almost negligible toxicity. After consumption, its toxins would be completely expelled from the body within six hours.
