Chapter 1056

In the alchemy room, Yang Kai’s hands kept waving, depicting one spiritual array diagram after another and continuously hitting them into the pill furnace.

When depicting the spiritual array diagram, his spiritual consciousness power also fluctuated, controlling the heat to perfection.

Zong Ao watched from the side, his eyes dazzled and his mind racing. He couldn’t maintain his calm expression any longer and even rushed to Yang Kai’s side, staring wide-eyed at him as he engraved the spirit array diagrams.

Zong Ao recognized all of these spirit arrays. There were even a few spirit array diagrams that he had created himself. It was clear that this brat Yang Kai had stolen his alchemy skills and was now using them.

But these ordinary spirit array diagrams, after being sent into the alchemy furnace, underwent some gratifying changes, causing the liquid medicine in the furnace to tumble and condense, and the fragrance of the pills gradually filled the air.

Zong Ao had a thoughtful expression on his face, feeling that a barrier in the front of him had cracked a gap. He wanted to see more clearly, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t tear the crack any wider. For a while, he was so anxious that he was jumping up and down.

He was a master alchemist. In terms of alchemy skills and techniques, he was far beyond what Yang Kai could compare.

But now, seeing Yang Kai alchemy like this, his eyes still lit up. Sometimes, an inadvertent action by someone else might bring unexpected gains to another person, allowing that person to fall into a state of enlightenment.

Therefore, as the times develop and alchemy progresses, with the passage of time, countless alchemists have advanced one after another, creating many schools in the field of alchemy and many spirit arrays for alchemy.

Even as powerful as Zong Ao, he didn’t dare to say that he had mastered all the alchemy skills. He was only groping and exploring on his own path attempting to pursue his goal.

He had been alchemy alone for a hundred years, and his thinking had become solidified. Yang Kai’s actions made his mind become active, and he immediately thought of many things that even Yang Kai couldn’t reach.

“Continue alchemy! Why did you stop？” Just as he was emotionally excited and felt that he had some insights, Zong Ao found that Yang Kai actually stopped the movement of his hands. He couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“Old Zong, can you be quiet？ If you do this… I can’t alchemy.” Yang Kai frowned and looked at him.

Zong Ao’s old face turned red, but he couldn’t refute. He was silent and felt frustrated.

He then discovered that in the alchemy furnace in front of Yang Kai, there was a burst of burnt smell at the moment. The medicinal liquid that was originally tumbling inside had all become useless things. Obviously, the alchemy failed and wasted a lot of good medicinal materials.

“It’s the first time. It’s inevitable to be a bit unfamiliar.” In order to cover up the embarrassment of disturbing Yang Kai’s alchemy, Zong Ao actually took the initiative to comfort and waved his hand and said, “Alright, I’ll just sit there and promise not to shout anymore. You continue alchemy！”

Saying this, he walked back again, sat upright on his chair, and restrained all his breath.

If he didn’t look, Yang Kai couldn’t even detect his existence. Zong Ao’s realm cultivation was also far beyond what Yang Kai could compare.

Yang Kai shook his head. Through these days of contact, he also knew that although Zong Ao had a rather strange temper, he was quite obsessed with the art of alchemy. As long as it was related to alchemy, it could arouse his great interest. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been refining pills here for a hundred years in a dull way and still enjoy it.

As long as he refined one or two pills with pill patterns, he would be extremely excited.

Such a person may seem heartless and extremely cold, but in fact, it is not difficult to deal with him. As long as you play to his strengths, they are easier to get close to than anyone else.

Yang Kai had met many such people, so he was also handy in dealing with them.

He was not afraid that Zong Ao would steal his alchemy skills because in front of Zong Ao, it was impossible to guard against.

He simply refined pills openly and didn’t care about his observation. How much he could see was his own business.

What Yang Kai cared more about was still the Profound Yin Sunflower Water in his hand！

After cleaning up the dregs in the pill furnace, Yang Kai started to refine the pill again.

The reason for the failure just now was not because of Zong Ao’s interruption. Even if he shouted louder, he couldn’t interfere with Yang Kai. When he was in the Nine Heavens Holy Land, every time Yang Kai refined pills, there were several people beside him observing and commenting, the conversation was endless, commenting on his techniques, and even asking questions, asking him to solve doubts while refining pills. He was already used to it.

After all, this was the first time he refined the Lihuo Pill. His control over the heat and timing wasn’t that proficient, so it was understandable that he failed.

The second time he refined it, Yang Kai was much more familiar with the process. Although he still failed in the end, it didn’t dampen Yang Kai’s enthusiasm.

The third time, he fell short at the last moment, but Yang Kai’s expression became even more confident. He felt that he had already figured out the changes in heat and the mastery of timing for the Lihuo Pill.

The fourth time, the fragrance of the pill wafted out from the pill furnace, and a Lihuo Pill successfully came out.

Putting it into the prepared jade bottle, before Yang Kai had a chance to observe it, it was snatched away by Zong Ao. After just one glance, Zong Ao threw the jade bottle back and snorted, “So-so. To be able to refine a pill in four attempts, you’re quite good. But you can’t even refine pill patterns, let alone the more advanced pill clouds？”

What’s the rush？ This is just the beginning.” Yang Kai smiled and ignored him. Without stopping, he continued to refine.

The disdain on Zong Ao’s face gradually subsided and became solemn. His heart was groaning.

After all, it’s the Divine Sense Fire. When refining pills, the speed is simply terrifying.

Even if I were to make a move, it would take the time of burning an incense stick to refine a Lihuo Pill. But this kid, the first time he refined it successfully, only took one hour.

This time seems very long and simply cannot be compared with oneself, but Zong Ao knows better than anyone that this kid has refined a Lihuo Pill for the first time. After he masters all the skills and becomes more and more proficient, the time to refine the pill will be shorter and shorter, and eventually it may be almost the same as his own.

His own realm cultivation, alchemist level, and the time spent in the alchemy path are all far more than this kid, but in the end, the time spent refining the same pill is almost the same.

What kind of concept is this？

Zong Ao was both envious and jealous of that divine sense fire, and wished he could snatch it and use it for himself. But when he thought of the hardships he had suffered back then, he could only reluctantly give up.

The days passed by one by one.

Yang Kai would refine ten Lihuo Pills every day, no more, no less. After refining ten pills, he would immediately sit cross-legged and meditate, restoring the consumed spiritual consciousness power while reflecting on himself and improving his understanding of alchemy by recalling today’s alchemy process.

Whenever this happened, Zong Ao would not disturb him either. Instead, he would also look deep and show a thoughtful expression.

He didn’t make any move to refine pills during this period of time. Every day, he watched Yang Kai repeating the process of refining the same kind of pill, over and over again, again and again, as if there was no end.

Not only did he not feel bored, but he also watched with great interest.

The frequent replacement of spiritual arrays made him seem to have found another great path of alchemy. He had never thought before that when refining a single pill, more than a dozen sets of complex spiritual arrays could be replaced.

Yang Kai’s strange ideas and unrestrained actions gave him a sense of excitement as if he had seen the bright moon through the clouds, and his solidified thinking gradually became active.

After all, he was a generation of alchemy masters. When he was in deep thought, he thought about many more things than Yang Kai and much more profoundly. He felt vaguely that the barrier that had bound him for many years showed signs of being broken through.

This discovery made Zong Ao’s blood boil all over his body.

One month passed, and Yang Kai refined a full three hundred Li Huo Pills. Every time a pill was refined, Zong Ao would snatch it over to take a look. What made him feel strange was that all the three hundred Li Huo Pills refined by Yang Kai were actually ordinary pills.

Yang Kai’s previous tone was so big, and he thought that this kid had some extraordinary ability. At the very least, he should have occasionally refined a few Li Huo Pills with pill patterns.

But among these three hundred pills, not a single one with pill patterns existed.

He couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed andfeel uncertain. Finally, he couldn’t hold back and asked, “Kid, can’t you even refine a Pill Mark？ If you just want to rely on luck to make the Pill Cloud appear, I advise you to give up this idea. In my life of alchemy, the pills I have refined are not less than hundreds of thousands or even millions, but only a few have produced Pill Clouds, and the grades are not high. Do you think you can produce a Pill Cloud with 2,000 portions of materials？ It’s just wishful thinking！”

“I don’t want to rely on luck.” Yang Kai smiled. “These 300 pills are just a process for me to get familiar with.”

“A process to get familiar with？” Zong Ao looked at him suspiciously.

“At least I now know how to refine the fire potion with the fastest speed and the best spiritual array. The following is the main event.

Zong Ao frowned, not knowing what he was up to.

In this one month, his speed of refining the fire pill has indeed become faster and faster At the beginning it took him one hour to refine a pill, but now it doesn’t even take half an hour. The speed has doubled. Zong Ao believes that as long as he continues to refine, this time will be shortened until it reaches an amazing level.

What shocked Zong Ao the most was not his alchemy speed, but the success rate of forming pills.

After the first three pills were refined and failed by him, he seemed to have suddenly understood something. The pills he refined were not failed once, and all of them became pills, without wasting any portion of the materials.

Zong Ao almost regarded Yang Kai as a celestial being！

Even he himself, when refining pills, would inevitably encounter some unexpected situations that led to the failure of pill refining and the charring of the medicinal liquid. This was a situation that no alchemist could avoid.

But this common thing never happened to Yang Kai. Every portion of medicinal materials was turned into pills. Although due to the reasons of heat and timing, the quality of those pills was slightly different, as time went by, the quality of the Fire-Departing Pills he refined was getting better and better, almost fully utilizing the medicinal effects of those medicinal materials without any difference.

Is this the truly terrifying aspect of the Divine Sense Fire? Zong Ao was a bit dazed.
