Qu Wuming, who was sitting next to him, immediately smelled a strange aroma. It was as soft and mellow as a spiritual liquid that had been sealed for thousands of years. It was also like the fresh grass fragrance that can be smelled everywhere after a light rain on the roadside. There seemed to be something vaguely there. The extremely mysterious Taoist rhyme ripples along with the fragrance, making people feel relaxed and happy when they smell it.
"This liquid is called 'Yuan Lu', and it is not something from the world of ten directions." Han Tian seemed to be aware of Qu Wuming's doubts, and took the initiative to explain, "It is said that adding a drop to the elixir when refining can protect the body." The elixir success rate is 100%. I have never used it before, so I will give it a try today. Oh, by the way, give this one to me!"
As he said that, Han Tian took out a one-inch-square jade box from the storage ring and threw it to Qu Wuming and said, "There is a fruit in it. After you finish refining the elixir, I can drink it. It has its own merits."
"Okay." Qu Wuming was already a little numb by the shock of what Han Tian took out. He was not in a hurry to ask what kind of fruit it was and what its benefits were.
"Now it's time for the eldest brother to take part!" Han Tian split the drop of Yuan Dew into two pieces and threw them into two squirming masses of liquid. "Please squeeze out two drops of blood essence, and then put your consciousness into it." The power is integrated into these two groups of medicinal materials."
Qu Wuming naturally obeyed and did as he was told.
"Bring the two liquids together, making sure they are thoroughly mixed!"
"Okay!" Under Qu Wuming's control, now there is no longer one black and one white, but two sticky liquids, one black and one gray, touching each other in the medicine cauldron, as if there are a pair of invisible His hands were like kneading dough, so that it was suspended in the medicine cauldron and constantly deformed, gradually turning into a black "dough".
"Okay, leave the rest to me!" After the contents of the cauldron were fully mixed by Qu Wuming, Han Tian raised his hand and the fire bird under the medicine cauldron flew out of the flames.
At this time, the fire bird no longer looked like it had before when it was lying in the tea stove to boil water, but looked like a fist-sized fire phoenix flying around the cauldron.
The Fire Bird's whole body exudes scorching heat, and every feather is made of scorching flames, blooming with dazzling divine light. There is also a long red flame trailing behind it, like a fiery red tail, which is really beautiful.
The power of consciousness that Qu Wuming had previously extended into the medicine cauldron before he could withdraw it was accidentally hit by the fire bird, and was instantly burned to nothing by the flames on the bird's body.
A strong burning sensation spread into the sea of consciousness. Qu Wuming hurriedly withdrew the rest of his spiritual power. He was secretly frightened by the power of the fire bird: "It is indeed one of the treasures of the Yin Puppet Sect. The fire spirit! If it is used wantonly, the power of this thing may not even be easy for me to deal with!"
With the help of the Fire Bird, it didn't take long for the body of the medicine cauldron to turn red. Through the transparent mysterious window, one could vaguely see the black stuff inside being divided into parts as they squirmed. After nine equal portions, wrapped in nine groups of dark red light, the liquid medicine became smaller and smaller, more and more rounded...
After a full two hours, bursts of medicinal fragrance began to float out from the cauldron. Qu Wuming just took a slight sniff, and the hidden wounds in the meridians and dantian of his body were vaguely nourished.
The nine round pills were spinning endlessly in the medicine cauldron, and the whole medicine cauldron gradually began to buzz, and even trembled in the air.
As the trembling force became stronger, sweat began to break out on Han Tian's forehead! I saw Han Tian using both hands to strike spells, and the fire bird in mid-air became more and more irritable, seeming to be helping Han Tian to suppress the trembling medicine cauldron.
After more than ten breaths, there was no longer any scent of medicine coming out of the cauldron, the shaking medicine cauldron gradually calmed down, and Han Tian finally showed a relaxed look on his face. Qu Wuming looked carefully and saw nine black and white round pills slowly stopping spinning in the medicine cauldron...
Bang!
With a muffled sound, the lid of the medicine cauldron suddenly opened, and Han Tian waved eight pills into a jade bottle. Then he quickly screwed on the stopper, leaving only one pill, which was gently lifted by Han Tian. He held it on the tip of his finger and examined it.
After a while, Han Tian gently pushed the pill in front of Qu Wuming.
"This is the first time I have added Yuan Dew when refining an elixir. I didn't expect it to have such an effect..." Han Tian said with a smile on his lips, "A drop of Yuan Dew is enough to refine the Yin and Yang Hunyuan Dan. The time has been compressed from thirty-six days to more than two hours, which is really amazing."
Qu Wuming picked up the pill and looked at it carefully.
I saw that the elixir was only the size of a soybean, and it was actually divided into two colors: black and white. Looking from a certain angle, it happened to be a pattern of yin and yang fish, and nine slender lines could be vaguely seen surrounding it - - "It's actually the Nine Marks Spiritual Pill!!!"
Qu Wuming was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
"Well, the Nine Patterns Spiritual Pill has a restrained power without dissipation, and it contains almost no impurities or erysipelas. However, due to the limited grade of the pill, there are no such things as pill tribulations and pill spirits. Originally, I thought Yuan Lu could ignore the level of elixirs and cause these, but it seems that I thought too much." Han Tian didn't seem to be very excited, "I was able to make nine-mark elixirs just because I borrowed the external power of Yuan Lu. So, with my current actual level, if I don’t add that drop of Yuan Dew, I would probably only be able to achieve a third or fourth pattern elixir.”
"That's amazing!"
"My goal is to be able to refine nine-line elixirs at will without relying on Yuanlu. However, it seems there is still a long way to go before this goal..."
"How old are you?" Qu Wuming rolled his eyes at Han Tian and said, "At your age, ordinary alchemists who can refine second-level elixirs are already very rare! Now even if your alchemy skills are placed in the Alchemist Sect, Here, he is one of the best among his peers!"
"Alchemy Master Sect? Haha, I will go and have a look one day." As if thinking of someone, Han Tian's eyes showed a somewhat complicated look...
————
Han Tian put the jade bottle containing the remaining elixirs into Qu Wuming's hand, and raised his hand to take back the Fulong Cauldron and the Fire Spirit Bird. While cleaning up the residue in the medicine cauldron, he warned: "Brother, you can take the purple berry, which is the fruit I just gave you, in a while, and then refine the Yin Yang Hunyuan Pill. This time I will refine it together. I made nine pills to treat the hidden injuries on the meridians on my brother’s body. One pill should be enough. Keep the rest, in case you suffer any similar injuries in the future, it will be enough to heal the wounds and save your life.”
"Although I can't say thank you for the great kindness, I still want to say thank you very much, dear brother!" Qu Wuming stood up and bowed deeply to Han Tian.
"Brother, please don't do this!" Han Tian hurriedly dodged and took two steps forward to help Qu Wuming up. "Since you and I have sworn to be brothers with different surnames on the basis of our inner demons, if we are brothers and do something for my brother, that's all. It should be."
As if he could tell what Qu Wuming wanted to say, Han Tian hurriedly said: "Brother, please take that purple berry quickly. I haven't seen with my own eyes the changes in people in the transformation stage after taking it."
"This fruit... what will happen if I eat it?" As expected, Qu Wuming was successfully diverted by Han Tian. He opened the jade box and found a purple-red fruit inside. It was round and there was a faint stream of light inside the peel. Rolling, as if it was not a fruit, but an immortal elixir containing heaven and earth.
"This thing is called Purple Berry. Together with Yuanlu, it is not native to the Shifang Realm." Han Tian explained, "It is said that after taking it, it can increase the life span of the person who takes it by eight hundred years. For the following people, after taking it, they can open the Purple Mansion in advance during the transformation stage."
"There is such a divine thing in the world... Where did you get it? It's so precious, so you should keep it for yourself." With that said, Qu Wuming was about to cover the jade box.
"We have all eaten it a long time ago." Han Tian stopped Qu Wuming and said with a slight smile, "Eating one is the limit. No matter how much you eat, it will not make any more changes. Instead, it will ruin the food. Brother, hurry up Eat, remember to tell me how you feel after eating." Han Tian looked at Qu Wuming expectantly, Qu Wuming knew that Han Tian would not harm him, so he opened his mouth and put the purple berry in his mouth.
The mouth full of fragrance, juice overflowing, spiritual energy surging... nothing happened.
The purple berries were indeed soft and seedless inside, but the taste... was hard to describe.
If I had to use one word to describe it, it would be tasteless.
Qu Wuming frowned slightly, and slowly swallowed the mouthful of the soft, tasteless, sticky pulp. After waiting quietly for a moment, he noticed under his inner vision that the pulp had melted into his stomach as soon as it entered his stomach. His body disappeared.
After waiting for another moment, Qu Wuming found that nothing had changed on him.
Qu Wuming was a little confused and looked at Han Tian doubtfully: "I don't seem to feel anything...could this fruit be?"
"Did it go bad?" Han Tian was also a little puzzled, "I heard that the elders in the sect who had taken purple berries opened the Zi Mansion in advance. Why hasn't the eldest brother changed?"
"It seems to have no taste when you eat it. Is this normal?"
"It has no taste, and so did the one I ate."
"Forget it, maybe we need to wait for a while." Qu Wuming raised the Yin-Yang Hunyuan Pill to the tip of his nose and sniffed, "Then let's heal the injury first!"
As he spoke, he swallowed the elixir into his belly in one gulp.
"Brother!"
Han Tian wanted to stop him but didn't. He hurriedly pulled Qu Wuming and ran towards the passage of the Earth Fire Pill Room, "Brother, don't be in a hurry to refine the pills. Follow me up there!"
"I..." Qu Wuming wanted to say something, but as soon as the Yin-Yang Hunyuan Pill was in his stomach, it turned into a ball of black and white energy, and it rushed towards his meridians without any explanation, as if He looked like he couldn't stop him, and it suddenly hurt so much that cold sweat broke out on his forehead and temples, and his steps became sluggish.
Seeing this, Han Tian didn't think too much and grabbed Qu Wuming's waist. Countless slender purple arcs of electricity appeared on his legs. His whole body seemed to turn into a stream of light, and he rushed out in a few breaths. The passage to the Earth Fire Alchemy Room led Qu Wuming to the practice ground in the backyard of Cuizhu Xiaozhu.
By the time Han Tian put Qu Wuming on the ground, Qu Wuming was already in pain like chaff, sweating like rain, his head was dizzy, and he almost fainted...
