This was Old Man Ba’s most precious furnace, which he rarely used for his own refining work. However, that was the least of Feng Wu’s concerns at the moment. Her top priority was to get that Nine Transformation Spirit Restoration Pill done.
She had all the main and supplementary ingredients on her, all processed as required.
Looking at all the materials in front of her, Feng Wu took a deep breath… today was the day she would either sink or swim… she was going to put in everything she had gathered during the past five years; if she failed, she had no idea how long it would take her to get all of them again…
Hence, she had to succeed!
Feng Wu made a fist, then opened her eyes, the look in them never as solemn and grave as now.
She first poured in Demonic Blood of Jackdaw, one of the chief ingredients, and waited for it to boil. Then, the queen of the Bighorn Blood Wasps was put into the furnace as a coagulator before…
Her slender fingers worked methodically as she put in each ingredient in turn, so steady as if she did this every day.
In fact, her life and future depended on what she was doing now!
She couldn’t afford any mistakes…
There were 44 chief ingredients and 99 supplementary ones… the liquid in the furnace changed with each ingredient that was added. One begot Two, Two begot Three… Three begot everything!
Feng Wu’s smooth forehead was covered with fine sweat.
However, she didn’t have time to wipe it. Beads of sweat then began to roll down her pink cheeks and dampened her clothes.
But Feng Wu paid no attention to that. She was completely focused on the furnace and kept her unblinking gaze on it.
Feng Wu was watching what was happening in the furnace closely. Although little things would pop up here and there, her master’s strict training enabled her to achieve perfection in her medicine refining test at every level, hence —
Feng Wu finally understood what all the care and thought was for.
Even when refining a medicine that was beyond her cultivation level, she was always able to observe meticulously and create order and peace out of chaos and confusion.
She went on adding the ingredients. She was on the 36th chief ingredient and had put in 80 supplementary ones already.
The medicine became more complex as the process went on, making it harder to control.
Just then, footsteps came from outside.
Knock, knock —
Knock, knock —
Someone was tapping on the door.
Feng Wu furrowed her brow, interrupted by the sound!
She was going to yell at the person outside when Old Man Ba spoke. “Little one, open up. I have some honored guests here.”
Honored guests?
Before Feng Wu could say anything, she heard a familiar voice.
“Hey! What’s going on in there? What’s taking you so long? Are you laying eggs or something?”
That voice!
Feng Wu’s hand jolted!
It was Feng Xun!
That was unquestionably that loud, goofy Feng Xun!
Old Man Ba would never consider Feng Xun his honored guest!
So, who was it then?
Only one person qualified!
Looking at the Immortal Spiritual Fruit juice in her hand, which she was just about to pour in, Feng Wu felt as if her heart was jumping out of her mouth!
SHIT!
