Residence, Crafting the Blood Ignition Pill_4

Fortunately he had joined the Broken Mountain Gang, otherwise he would have been completely worn-out alchemizing every day, just as before.
Now he refines pills twice a day, three batches at a time, which is clearly more than before.
But due to the help of medicine disciples and fire workers, he feels much more relaxed.
“Next, it’s time to add the supplementary ingredients.”
One by one, the prepared herbs are added to the Four Symbols Tripod.
There are some that need to be processed on site, which he does with his proficient ‘Simplicity Hand’ pill technique.
Then, the mild-tempered Tian Yang Fruit is added.
The fruit contains a hint of innate Qi, not much indeed, but extremely precious.
Otherwise, the Hundred Herbs Pavilion wouldn’t have put it up for sale.
After the Tian Yang Fruit, it’s time for the Explosive Monkey Demon Blood.
Luo Chen took out a magic tool, the Ocean Swallowing Jar.
This was his recent purchase, since he gave the previous one to Feng Xia for storing Fu Zhu Deer’s beast milk.
It’s worth mentioning that the price of his newly-bought magic tool was only two hundred Spirit Stones.
He remembered that the Ocean Swallowing Jar in Wanbao Pavilion was sold for two hundred and thirty.
Sikong Shoujia didn’t lie to him, the price of magic tools has indeed been getting cheaper. Perhaps after several hundred years, the increasingly expensive storage bag would become commonplace among Qi Refinement Cultivators.
The jar opening, a nauseating smell surged out.
This thing doesn’t require processing, what it needs is its original taste.
Luo Chen cautiously controlled the measuring of the demon blood, stopping when it was enough for a dose of Blood Ignition Pills, then put away the Ocean Swallowing Jar.
After pouring the Explosive Monkey Demon Blood, Luo Chen stopped his moves, concentrating on controlling the heat.
Occasionally, he would use Attraction Technique to open the lid, then stir the gradually melting elixir with a specifically designed spatula.
According to his own concocted pill formula, it’s best for the Blood Ignition Pill refinement process to not be too exposed to a pill refiner’s spirit power.
Otherwise, it would affect the purity of the elixir.
The only place it would come into contact was probably when the pill is about to be produced, relying on pill techniques to mould the elixir into pill form with spirit power.
The decoction and stirring process lasted for quite a while.
Luo Chen even started to feel a bit sleepy.
Of course, he definitely wouldn’t fall asleep.
Even so, he was thinking about how to arrange this time duration for large-scale Blood Ignition Pill production.
A fire worker for heating is definitely required.
He can also train a group of people specifically from the medicine disciples, responsible for the stages where the elixir changes during pill refinement.
Perhaps not only for the Blood Ignition Pill, a stage of Jade Marrow Pill, which was draining him quite a bit, also seemed feasible?
These thoughts passed in a flash.
Luo Chen continued with his full concentration on pill refinement.
After around one incense stick’s time, it felt just about right.
Luo Chen took out that honeycomb-like Floating Rock Stone.
The stone floated above the Four Symbols Tripod, Luo Chen extended his hand, spirit power gushed out.
With the hand forming gestures, the strands of his spirit power interlaced forming a swarm-like group, just like bees, filing into the honeycomb.
Busting the array set by an Ailao Mountain Cultivator, then Luo Chen’s Spirit Power, like a bee transporting pollen, slowly wrapped around a wisp of Earth Fire Evil Qi, and gently moved it out.
As the Earth Fire Evil Qi entered the tripod, Luo Chen’s spirit power abruptly withdrew.
The lid of the tripod was also swiftly closed.
Almost instantaneously, the Four Symbols Tripod began to exhibit slight tremors.
“When the gentle elixir comes in contact with the Earth Fire Evil Qi, a special change will occur. The overall attributes will instantly shift towards volatility.”
“Not only that, the spirit power in the Explosive Monkey’s Demon Blood and Tian Yang Fruit will also erupt instantly under the stimulation of the Earth Fire Evil Qi, and then fuse with each other.”
The pill formula I devised naturally includes the possible changes that might occur during the process of pill refinement.
It can be said that Luo Chen is the one who understands the Blood Ignition Pill formula the best in this world.
Even if a Pill Refinement Grandmaster came, he would not be as familiar with it as him.
Suddenly!
The trembling Four Symbols Tripod, quieted down immediately, returning to its original calm state.
Luo Chen’s spirit tightened, this is the final moment of pill formation.
He released the spirit power, which penetrated through the array pattern initially reserved in the pill Tripod.
About five breaths later, Luo Chen with anticipation opened the lid of the tripod.
A burnt and pungent odor instantly spread out.
“Did it fail?”
“I’m used to it, the first time alchemizing, but I am at the beginner level of proficiency, it’s natural to fail…”
Luo Chen, who had already prepared himself mentally, froze when he saw those five, blood-red pills the size of peanuts at the base of the Four Symbols Tripod.
It didn’t fail!
Success in one try!
