"Fellow Daoist Chen, please refine this Ningying Fruit into Ningying Pill."
Following Ai Xiao's words, everyone looked at Chen Haoran.
Chen Haoran took the Ningying Fruit, looked at each of his companions one by one, and said: "I can't guarantee that I will succeed in refining the elixir. If I fail, there will be nothing."
Ai Xiao smiled and said: "Anyway, this Ningying Fruit appeared unexpectedly. I never thought that spiritual objects like Ningying Fruit would appear. I am not in a hurry anyway. It will be the same if I accumulate a few more years in Jindan Perfection. If everyone is willing to share the risk equally, alchemy is the best choice. If everyone is not willing, then I will eat it alone."
Ji Yin asked: "Fellow Daoist Chen, how sure are you?"
Chen Haoran pondered for a while and replied: "50%."
In fact, he was 70% to 80% sure, but he didn't dare to say too much.
"Fifty percent, it's not low, let's take a gamble."
"Although I'm not in a hurry, I wouldn't worry if I could prepare it first, right? Make alchemy!"
"Refining!"
Seeing that everyone agreed, Chen Haoran put away the Ningying Fruit and said: "To refine the Ningying Pill, we need some auxiliary medicines. I will make a list and you can go and collect it. As for refining the Xuanhuo first, Come out, you will be more confident."
Naturally, everyone had no objection. After he made the list, he took the list and went out to purchase.
Three days later, Chen Haoran had extracted the Xuanhuo, and everyone also bought various auxiliary medicines, missing a few insignificant items.
Open the furnace to make alchemy!
Yaoguang Kitchen has not opened in the past few days, and it is certainly not open now. Everyone gathered in the backyard to protect Chen Haoran.
The auction house in Black Rock City seems to have done a good job of maintaining confidentiality. No strange people have been found near Yaoguang's kitchen in the past few days.
Chen Haoran took out the big belly cauldron, and with a casual move, a stream of water appeared out of thin air. It was the water gathering technique among the basic spells.
The water fell into the big belly cauldron, swirling and washing in the cauldron. After a while, it was cleaned, and with Chen Haoran's hand movements, the water flow condensed into a ball from the cauldron and was thrown aside.
Then, he took out three more spirit stones, and placed the finished ones under the cauldron in the shape of a glyph. With the use of the magic formula, the spirit stones actually started to burn.
In fact, it was not the spiritual stone that burned, but that he mobilized the mysterious fire to fall under the cauldron and used the spiritual stone as fuel to provide the mysterious fire with spiritual energy to burn.
After heating the big belly cauldron evenly, he started to add a few auxiliary ingredients into it. After seeing that the time was almost up, he took out the Ningying Fruit and threw it in.
As several spells were played, the Ningying Fruit gradually melted, and he began to add other auxiliary elixirs. The addition of auxiliary elixirs is naturally not done casually. It is done first and then later, quickly and slowly. Different auxiliary medicines are added at different times.
Unknowingly, three days have passed.
The Ningying Pill was not easy to refine. Chen Haoran spent a lot of mana, but this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that he kept staring at the pill furnace, which consumed a lot of his spiritual consciousness.
Fortunately, as a spiritual chef, he took the time to eat some spiritual food to replenish his energy, so he didn't feel tired.
Finally, after pouring in the last elixir, Chen Haoran locked the lid of the furnace and fired one hundred and eight spells in succession. The sound of thunder and explosion was faintly heard from inside the big belly cauldron.
Jiang Xianyun said to Cen Xinyue with some worry: "Sister Xinyue, why is this alchemy making a thunderous sound? Is it going to explode the furnace?"
Cen Xinyue had a relaxed look on her face and said with a smile: "Although I am not good at alchemy, I have seen many alchemists making alchemy in Xuantian Pavilion. This is normal, because the properties of the medicine are undergoing drastic changes. Moreover, look at Daoyou Chen, he doesn’t look worried at all.”
At this time, Chen Haoran swallowed a spirit-reviving pill and said with a smile: "It's almost done. Next, I just need to warm it with a slow fire for four days to keep the flame alive, and it will be fine."
"Do you want to take a rest?" Cen Xinyue looked at Chen Haoran's tired face and asked with concern.
Chen Haoran shook his head and said: "I can't leave. If something happens, you can't handle it. I'm fine. The rest of the care will only take time. I can watch while recovering."
Next, there were no surprises, and everything went smoothly beyond everyone's expectations.
Finally, four days later, Chen Haoran's consciousness entered the big belly cauldron, and he suddenly discovered that there were fifteen thumb-sized elixirs lying quietly inside.
He opened the furnace, collected the elixirs, and put each one individually into a small jade bottle.
There was a faint fragrance floating in the air, and everyone felt refreshed as soon as they took a breath.
Everyone was very happy. They had won this huge bet in which the total investment amounted to nearly 15 million spirit stones!
Chen Haoran put the fifteen jade vases on the table and said with a smile: "Fortunately, the elixir was refined and far exceeded expectations! I originally estimated that there would be about ten at most, but I didn't expect that fifteen would be found. Everyone, look. Let’s see how we divide it.”
Ai Xiao took the initiative to express his position: "Fifteen spiritual elixirs, except for Fellow Daoist Chen, each of us will pay three million spiritual stones to take two spiritual elixirs, and the rest will belong to Fellow Daoist Chen. How about that?"
Chen Haoran was the first to object: "That won't work. We agreed to share it equally. I'm just doing some work, but I can't help but take up the majority of the spiritual stones."
Ai Xiao shook his head and said: "That's not what you said. Generally speaking, in addition to the cost of alchemy required by an alchemy master, most of the time the amount of elixirs exceeding the basic amount belongs to the alchemy master. After this calculation, we actually still account for Big bargain."
Chen Haoran also shook his head and retorted: "We are a team, so it would be wrong to calculate so clearly."
Cen Xinyue said decisively: "In this way, each of us will pay 2.5 million spiritual stones and take two elixirs. The remaining elixirs will be given to Fellow Daoist Chen, and the remaining spiritual stones will be made up by Fellow Daoist Chen himself. Fellow Daoist Chen, you also said so." , we are a team, don’t calculate it so clearly.”
Others agreed.
Chen Haoran alone could not compete with five people. In the end, he could only admit it with some embarrassment: "Well, then I will be ashamed to accept it."
He spent 2.5 million spirit stones and got five Ning Ying Dan.
Considered the biggest winner.
However, except for Ai Xiao, the rest of the people could only put away the elixir and not use it for the time being.
As for Ai Xiao, he has been adjusting his condition in the past few days. Now that he has obtained the Ningying Pill, he naturally no longer waits, retreats, and breaks through.
Everyone, without needing Chen Haoran to explain, knew that this Ningying Dan was of great importance and could only be used by oneself. Not only could the extra ones not be sold, but one could not even tell anyone about it, otherwise there would be constant trouble.
After another day of rest, Yaoguang Kitchen finally opened for business again, but Ai Xiao was missing among the service staff.
