Chapter 610

After a long time, he began the second attempt.

Because of the failure just now, the spirit array in the pill furnace was also completely burned, so this time it had to start all over again.

Meticulously engraving the required spirit array inside the pill furnace with True Yuan.

But this attempt was even worse than the previous one. Due to a negligence, there was a slight deviation in the true essence when engraving the spirit array. When the pattern takes shape the spirit array suddenly exploded.

Inside the pill furnace, chaotic energy fluctuations burst out rapidly, like runaway wild horses that were difficult to tame.

Yang Kai had a splitting headache and only then understood that knowing the knowledge of alchemy was one thing, but actually, it was another.

Looking at it this way, Little Senior Sister’s talent was truly extremely enviable. With the Medicine Spirit Saint Body, she could refine pills as she pleased. Any medicinal materials would obediently fuse to the extent she wanted in her hands.

After failing three more consecutive times, the spirit array was finally stabilized inside the pill furnace.

Because during the process of engraving the spirit array, one had to be fully concentrated and not relax in the slightest. Moreover, the entire spirit array had to be completed in one go. If there were any mistakes or differences during this period, the spirit array would collapse.

This kind of thing consumed a great deal of energy and true essence.

Only by accurately completing all of it could the spirit array take shape and play its own role.

It was easy to talk about, but when actually doing it, one would find that there were many difficulties giving people an urge to go crazy. Fortunately, Yang Kai’s disposition was quite resolute and he wouldn’t be discouraged because of one or two failures.

Every failure would only add to his experience of success.

The spirit array stabilized, and Yang Kai once again orderly put medicinal materials into the pill furnace. The true yuan in his hand surged, and soon melted those medicinal materials into liquid medicine and fused them together.

The effects of various medicinal properties were exerted, condensed into a mass, and conflicted with each other, resulting in a subtle change.

This time he controlled it more carefully, but still failed.

When he wanted to expel the impurities in the medicinal materials and make the liquid medicine pure, there was suddenly a loud explosion in the pill furnace, and the smell of charred paste filled the air again.

Sitting cross-legged in the room, Yang Kai thought quietly and slowly regained his spirit.

After a period of breathing adjustment, when his energy, spirit, and qi recovered to the peak, he started to act again.

Failure, failure…

Repeated failures would make anyone feel a deep sense of powerlessness. But Yang Kai’s expression was calm and Youdaoplaceholder0. He poured out the waste materials from the pill furnace again and again and repeated the various actions before failure over and over again.

Because he knew that every time he failed, he made some progress.

Practice makes perfect. This sentence is not empty talk！ To refine good pills, it is not something that can be achieved overnight. He has just started now.

The waste materials in the room were getting more and more and the smell of charred paste filled the surroundings. Yang Kai’s spirit had never been relaxed.

Time passed slowly, and I don’t know how long it had passed.

The low-grade materials purchased with fifty crystals had been consumed about 80%. Yang Kai still hadn’t refined a single finished pill.

But he was like a man possessed, his expression still so meticulous and extremely focused.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Kai tried for the umpteenth time.

However, this time was different from before. He had a feeling in his heart, a feeling of confidence, a premonition that this time he would surely succeed.

The engraving of the spirit array was already familiar to him. Yang Kai only took ten breaths to stably engrave the spirit array in the alchemy furnace.

One low-grade herbal medicine after another was put into the alchemy furnace. Under the action of Yang Kai’s true yuan, they melted and merged into a medicinal liquid. The true yuan shuttled and wandered within the medicinal liquid, incinerating the impurities in the medicinal liquid and expelling the unnecessary components.

The whole process had no mistakes at all. Yang Kai was like a skilled veteran, making the pill gradually take shape.

Soon, a wisp of faint fragrance diffused out from the alchemy furnace.

Yang Kai’s spirit was shocked, and he became even more not to be careless. He controlled the strength of the output of true yuan and mastered the heat of the forming pill.

After a long time, when the medicinal liquid had been condensed to the limit, Yang Kai suddenly withdrew all his true yuan.

The spirit array in the alchemy furnace also contracted violently at this moment, like a big net, binding all the medicinal liquid and condensing it into a round pill.

Ding dong…

A crisp sound came out from the alchemy furnace.

Yang Kai was dripping with sweat, but couldn’t suppress the joy in his heart. He quickly took the pill out of the pill furnace.

The alluring fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose. The small pill had gathered almost all of Yang Kai’s painstaking efforts. It was only the size of a thumbnail and almost contained all the medicinal properties of those herbs.

After carefully feeling it for a while, Yang Kai discovered that the first pill he had ever refined in his life was actually only of ordinary grade quality.

The materials he used were all of earth grade. Because on the Tongxuan Continent, ordinary grade medicinal herbs were basically not picked by anyone, just like the wildflowers on the roadside, without any value at all.

Earth grade ones were slightly useful.

Using earth grade materials to refine an ordinary grade pill. Such a result was very unqualified, but Yang Kai was satisfied because this was the first pill he had refined with his own hands.

Holding this pill, Yang Kai was lost in thought, recalling the feelings during the refining process.

He was thinking in his heart that if he could condense the medicinal properties a little more, expel the impurities a little more cleanly, and master the heat a little better, the quality of the pill would definitely rise again.

Moreover, through this successful attempt, he also deeply realized the profoundness and extensiveness of alchemy, and had a certain understanding of the various mysteries and profound meanings of alchemy.

To become a qualified alchemist, it was far from enough to just master a vast amount of knowledge. One had to go through countless trials and accumulate experience.

The first success allowed him to accumulate a lot of precious experience.

After taking a break for a while, he redoubled his efforts and continued to work hard.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.

The medicinal materials that Yang Kai bought with fifty spirit stones were also completely consumed, not a single drop left.

Just as he was about to leave the secluded cultivation, light footsteps came from outside. Through the footsteps, Yang Kai knew the identity of the person coming.

With a slight smile, he waved his hand to disperse the barrier wrapped around the room and took the initiative to open the door.

Shui Ling was standing outside, and her expression was slightly complicated.

After smelling the smell coming from the room, she couldn’t help but wave her hand in front of her nose and frowned, saying, “What smell？”

Yang Kai scratched his face, feeling a little embarrassed.

Not far away, Yun Xuan and the big man with a bushy beard and others also walked over.

As if knowing that Yang Kai had been refining pills these days, the big man with a bushy beard stepped forward and winked at Yang Kai, saying, “Brother, how’s the result？ Did you refine any good pills？ Take them out and let us share.”

“Ji Hong！” Yun Xuan glared at him.

Yang Kai clearly had never refined pills before. He bought some medicinal materials on a whim to try his hand. Without anyone teaching him, it would be strange if he could refine pills.

If pills were really so easy to refine, then the status of alchemists wouldn’t be so noble.

From the burnt smell floating out of the room and the accumulated waste materials inside, Yun Xuan already understood what kind of setbacks Yang Kai had encountered in these ten days.

“Hehe, just tell us.” The big man with a bushy beard chuckled. He didn’t mean any harm either.

Yun Xuan gave Yang Kai an apologetic look and hesitated for a while before saying, “If you really want to refine pills, I can introduce you to the Pill Society in the alliance to be an apprentice and find a master to teach you there. It will be much better than you groping on your own.”

“No need. I really just want to play around.” Yang Kai shook his head with a smile.

Yun Xuan nodded slightly and didn’t say anything more. She just thought this teenager was quite interesting. He clearly had some interest in alchemy, but he didn’t want to be taught by others and would rather lock himself in the room and grope on his own.

The young woman secretly sighed. Going on like this, he would never be able to refine any pills in his life. However, this was after all someone else’s business, and as an outsider, how could she point fingers.

“Yang Kai, someone from the temple has come to pick me up and go back.” Shui Ling said.

“Oh？ Then congratulations.” Yang Kai smiled.

“Well, I’m just here to say goodbye to you.” Shui Ling said.

The people from the Water God Temple had arrived in Du’ao City two days ago. However, Yang Kai had been refining pills in the room, and Shui Ling couldn’t just leave directly.

After all, it was Yang Kai who brought her back.

The time of parting was approaching, and Shui Ling didn’t feel much sadness. Instead, she was filled with joy. Chatting and laughing with Yang Kai and the others, she walked outside.

Outside the residence of Yun Xuan’s team, there was a luxurious RV waiting. Several strange and majestic beasts were pulling the cart, and beneath the feet of those beasts, a hint of wind power was surging faintly.

Yang Kai saw this and couldn’t help but marvel.

“Miss！” Outside the RV, there was a Supernatural Realm expert waiting. When he saw Shui Ling come out, he quickly called out, with a cold expression.

Shui Ling nodded slightly, turned around, and looked at Yang Kai, saying, “Anyway, I still want to thank you. Well, take this water-blue jade pendant. If you need it someday, you can come to the Water God Palace to find me. Also, I will help keep an eye on the whereabouts of your friends. If there is any news, I will try to notify you.”

“Thank you.” Yang Kai reached out and took the water-blue jade pendant, sincerely expressing his gratitude.

The Supernatural Realm expert looked at Yang Kai with a hint of surprise. He seemed unable to understand why such a teenager would be so valued by his own young lady that she even gave away the water-blue jade pendant.

Yun Xuan’s beautiful eyes also flickered, and she looked at Yang Kai suspiciously.

Although Shui Ling had lived in their residence for more than ten days and they got along quite well, Yun Xuan still hadn’t figured out what the relationship between Yang Kai and Shui Ling was.

“That’s it. I’m leaving.” Shui Ling pursed her lips and smiled, then turned around and walked onto the RV.

The Transcendent Realm expert had a cold expression. Without even looking at Yang Kai and the others, he went straight to walked to the position of the coachman. The True Yuan in his body surged out violently. The several strange beasts had wind under their feet, and bright patterns flickered on the RV. It quickly rose into the air and left like a flash of lightning.

“As expected of the little princess of the Water Temple. This carriage is really imposing.” The big man with a beard and the others were extremely envious.

That RV was obviously a secret treasure specifically used for carrying people to fly.Its grade was not low and it was extremely difficult to refine. Only a power like the Water Temple could possess it.
