Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate-Chapter 103 - The Phenomenon of the Pill Cloud
Chapter 103: The Phenomenon of the Pill Cloud
“In that case, I’ll let you try it once, but only once.”
“Leader, you can’t do that!” The goat horned demon immediately advised.
“Yes, if he can’t control the heat…” The golden core stage demoness also expressed her worry.
However, the nascent soul stage demoness firmly maintained her judgment,
“Monkey, if you discover that the pill furnace is unstable, I’ll tell you to stop. You have to stop immediately. Can you do that?”
Abruptly, Lin An bragged, “Absolutely, no problem. I’m famous for being stable when refining pills, and I’m also famous for being cautious.”
“Then you can start.” The nascent soul stage demon witch nodded as she gave Lin An her approval.
“Wait, if there’s a punishment for failure, what’s the reward for success?” Lin An asked.
Instantly, the other creatures rolled their eyes.
It would be good enough if Lin An didn’t blow up the furnace. Why was he concerned about a reward? Couldn’t he tell that his chances of successfully refining the pills were extremely thin?
“Damned monkey! If you want to refine the pills, then hurry up. As long as you succeed, everything will be fine.”
Thus, under the creatures’ solemn gazes, Lin An held the medicinal herbs in his hands and walked towards the alchemy furnace.
He gently closed his eyes and let out a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, his expression became tense and serious.
In the next moment, Lin An turned his head and asked the alchemist, “Oh right, are these ingredients used to refine the spirit-nourishing pill or the vitality-consolidating pill? Let me see the formula for refining the pill.”
…
The surrounding demon and demonesses immediately felt a headache, and their expressions turned extremely helpless.
“This monkey is really here to cause trouble, isn’t he?”
“He doesn’t even know the formula; how could he possibly refine it?”
“Forget it. You must pay attention to the changes in the pill furnace later, you must be vigilant enough.”
At that time, Lin An had already received the pill formula from the rabbit-eared girl, and he quickly studied it.
He then stood in front of the pill furnace, took a deep breath, and grabbed the spiritual medicine in his hand.
Whoosh!
Lin An threw the spiritual medicine up and simultaneously waved a wisp of mana, lifting all the spiritual ingredients into the air and placing them separately.
“Huh? What’s this for?” The other demons asked in surprise as they retreated towards the door.
Although the creatures didn’t know how to refine pills, they had observed the rabbit-eared girl in the past when she refined pills, but they had never seen her try Lin An’s technique.
Whoosh!
Lin An flipped his left hand upwards, and a yellow-red flame suddenly appeared in his palm. He had chosen to use the dark flame transformation technique to activate the yellow-red flame instead of directly using the black-and-white ashen flames.
The scorching yellow-red flame roasted the surrounding space until it was slightly distorted.
Suddenly, Lin An used his mana to capture a stalk of spiritual medicine and directly threw it into the yellow-red flame.
Instantly, the other creatures present in the room cried out in shock.
“This… What is he doing?”
“The temperature of the flames is so high that even refined iron can evaporate instantly. Won’t the spiritual medicine stalk burn to ashes?”
However, in the next moment, they were once again dumbfounded.
The yellow-red flame engulfed the entire stalk of the spiritual medicine, but the stalk remained completely unharmed.
Lin An deliberately controlled the temperature of the flame close to the spiritual medicine and began refining it.
The process required a very high level of soul power. If an alchemist’s soul power was insufficient, the spiritual medicine could be burned at any time.
Once the spiritual medicine burned, there would be no way to remedy it.
Fortunately, after his experience in the tower of trials, Lin An’s soul power was already comparable to that of the Ruoshui Empress.
Since he was only refining a two-star medicinal pill, Lin An could easily control the yellow-red flame.
Chi!
A stream of excess water evaporated from the spiritual stalk before it began to melt, turning from a solid to a liquid.
At the same time, the impurities in the spiritual herb were burned into a black mist that slowly rose and evaporated.
Not long after, the entire spiritual herb turned into a drop of sparkling green liquid elixir. It slowly rotated in the yellow-red flame and emitted rays of light that symbolized its essence.
Lin An used his mana to maintain the green liquid elixir’s buoyancy in the air. Afterward, he took a second stalk of spiritual medicine and began to process it in the same way.
Once he had repeated the process a few times, Lin An was satisfied that he had obtained all the ingredients necessary for refining a set of vitality consolidating pills.
Six differently colored spiritual elixirs calmly floated beside Lin An, and the creatures in the room were stunned.
They had never seen such an alchemy method before, but it didn’t seem out of place at all.
The rabbit-eared girl’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
She felt that Lin An’s alchemy method was too magical, and she couldn’t help but feel a trace of respect for him.
Then, with a wave of his hand, Lin An lifted the cauldron’s lid and placed the six portions of essence into it.
After he put back the lid, the runes on the cauldron began to glow. Waves of rune power surged into the cauldron and continuously squeezed and attacked the six portions of essence.
The scene was similar to a blacksmith forging a thousand hammers.
Before long, the six different medicinal powers completely fused together, turning into a bubble the size of a baby’s fist that had a muddy milky white color.
Weng!
A long sound spread far away from the alchemy furnace. The runes on the cauldron instantly became even more resplendent, turning into a powerful energy that rushed into the center of the alchemy furnace.
With a muffled sound, the milky-white bubbles were dispersed, turning into ten light spots of the same size that scattered in the alchemy furnace.
Once they were in the alchemy furnace, the ten light spots spun rapidly and gradually turned into solid states. In an instant, waves of rich medicinal fragrance gradually spread out.
Lin An opened the cauldron’s lid and extended his large hand. Immediately, ten milky-white pills flew out of the alchemy furnace. Each pill was round and full, and they all emitted a rich medicinal fragrance.
The creatures present were stunned, and their faces were filled with shock and astonishment!
“Ten pills!”
“Ten pills?”
“How is this possible!”
“The maximum number of pills that can be refined from a portion of medicinal ingredients is ten. However, there always is a loss during the refining process. Those who can refine five pills are the grandmasters of the alchemy world. He is only in the golden core stage; how can he refine ten pills!
Moreover, even if five pills are formed, the quality of the pills is usually uneven. How is it possible that all the pills are perfectly round and full even when ten portions were formed? Their quality and appearance are flawless.”
“This kind of pill formation rate is simply unprecedented!”
The creatures in the room exclaimed repeatedly in disbelief!
The rabbit-eared girl was even more stunned. The shock in her heart was indescribable.
How could a being like Lin An exist?
His combat strength was already so strong, yet he could also refine pills perfectly? Was there anything he couldn’t do?
“This milky-white vitality fortifying pill is of the highest quality! The condition of the pill he refined is a hundred times better than mine!”
The rabbit-eared girl looked at the milky-white vitality fortifying pill and was inexplicably shocked.
Even a layman could tell that the pills had been refined to the highest quality.
However, even if all the pills had been well refined, they were still second-grade pills after all.
Lin An couldn’t help but feel that the effects of consuming the pills were too weak.
