Deduct 1 for merit. I am really not a child of luck.

Chapter 73: Amplifying Dao Fire! A whole night of hard work!
This was the third time he had heard of Taiqing Dan during this period.

I learned from Yan Nanfeng that this is a tier 2 cultivation elixir, similar to tier 1 Qi training powder.

Zhuang Weiwan explained:

"Taiqing Pill is a top-notch pill among the second-level cultivation pills. Not only are the ingredients scarce, but the difficulty of refining it is also much higher than that of ordinary second-level cultivation pills."

After saying this, she pointed to the jade bottles in front of her and said:
"Don't underestimate these few Taiqing Pills. They cost me three months of missions and the materials I collected from the secret realm."

"It's a pity that my [White Crane Pill Fire] is yellow grade, and it has no special purification effect. I can only rely on ordinary Dao Fire to purify the pills. In addition, my Dao Fire cultivation is insufficient, so most of these pills are low-grade Taiqing Pills, and only one barely reaches the middle grade."

Lin Mo nodded, not quite understanding. Zhuang Weiwan smiled and said, "Junior Brother Lin, the effect of your [True Flame] has been preliminarily detected. It can actually directly increase the purity of the Dao Fire."

"what?"

He could barely understand some of it just now, but Zhuang Weiwan's words really confused him.

Isn't this just fire? What does it mean to increase the Dao fire?
However, Zhuang Weiwan soon explained in detail the meaning of amplifying Dao Fire.

Simply put, Dao Fire also has different levels of purity.

The higher the purity ratio of the fire spirit root, the higher the purity of the Taoist fire of the alchemist, and the higher the efficiency of refining pills.

The connection between them is one after another.

Lin Mo's [True Flame] can directly bypass one link of talent and improve the purity of Tao Fire, in short: fighting fire with fire!

Zhuang Weiwan said excitedly:

"I tested it last night. Just the tiny flame you left behind can increase the purity of my Dao Fire by at least 5%. If it is completely refined, the purity of the Dao Fire will surely be greatly improved!"

Lin Mo touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "So the strange fire and the Tao fire are actually two different things?"

Zhuang Weiwan nodded:

"That's right. Strange fire is a spiritual object. Even if it is refined, it is only equivalent to a natural magical power. It is different from the Dao fire derived from the fire spirit root."

"But it doesn't mean that the two complement each other and can make the Dan Xiu's Dan Huo effect have an effect of 1+1 greater than 2."

"It's just like my junior brother's [True Flame]. After refining the fire and building the foundation to derive the Dao Fire, you can place the fire in the Dao Fire. The former can continuously purify the Dao Fire, and the latter can continuously nourish the former, making it grow stronger and stronger, endlessly..."

After hearing this, Lin Mo finally understood the difference between the two flames.

He reacted: "If it is about refining Dao Fire, then wouldn't I be unable to help you, Senior Sister, refine the elixir?"

If I can't make the elixir, my plan to speed up the refining of [True Flame] will also go down the drain...

Zhuang Weiwan's eyes lit up and he said:

"No, it's still possible. Junior Brother can use the True Extreme Flame to refine my Dao Fire!"

Can you still play like this?
Lin Mo suddenly realized.

"Then let's start now!"

Zhuang Weiwan couldn't wait to speak, even more anxious than Lin Mo.

After saying that, she began to show off her skills.

Countless glowing medicinal herbs that were obviously very rare were put into the alchemy furnace one by one.

The temperature of the alchemy furnace, which had been gradually cooling down, rose again, and the steam slowly gathered in the air above the courtyard, forming a tiny dark cloud.

"Then what should I do?"

Lin Mo, who was participating in alchemy for the first time, was very confused.

Zhuang Weiwan released his Dao Fire and said to him:
"It's very simple. Just output your Dao Fire to me, and then I will output the Alchemy Furnace."

I attack Senior Sister Zhuang, and Senior Sister Zhuang attacks the alchemy furnace... Got it!
Lin Mo said secretly in his heart, then he flicked his fingers slightly, and the flame that appeared at his fingertips shot into Zhuang Weiwan's Taoist fire.

The Dao Fire was like having a piece of firewood added to it. The flame instantly grew a little stronger and then returned to its normal size.

"Right, that is it!"

Zhuang Weiwan's eyes lit up, and then he said to him:
"It's not enough, come again!"

Lin Mo sank his dantian, squeezed out another wisp of flame from the fire that had been refined, and shot it out with a snap of his fingers.

With a "swish" sound, the ball of Dao fire expanded again and then shrank.

This time, he saw it clearly.

As the Dao Fire expanded and retracted, the color of the flame seemed to brighten a little bit.

Is this how to improve the purity of Tao Fire?
Just as Lin Mo had this thought in his mind, he heard Zhuang Weiwan's voice continue to ring out:
"Junior brother, don't stop, keep going!" How can I stop after you yelled like that! ?

He concentrated his attention and once again extracted a cluster of flames from the fire.

Just as he jumped into the Dao Fire, Zhuang Weiwan urged him:

"Junior brother, it's too slow, hurry up!"

Okay, okay, I don’t believe it!
Lin Mo gritted his teeth and continued to output his little flame.

As clusters of small flames continued to shoot into the Dao Fire, Zhuang Weiwan's originally red flames gradually turned orange, then changed from orange-yellow to bright yellow, and finally gradually turned into white...

About an hour later.

Lin Mo waved his hands breathlessly and said, "Senior Sister, I, I can't do it anymore, there's really not a drop left!"

Zhuang Weiwan looked at the Taoist fire in front of him with a flushed face, and his collar was completely soaked with sweat.

The color of the Dao Fire changed from the red flame at the beginning to the translucent white flame now, and the temperature in the courtyard rose again because of this flame.

She said excitedly:

"Very good, the purity of the Dao Fire has been increased by at least 20%!"

This is only 20%?

Lin Mo frowned.

Zhuang Weiwan saw his thoughts and said:
"Being able to increase it by 20% is already very exaggerated, and as long as we control the rhythm of refining Dao Fire, maybe this time the Taiqing Pill will have a chance to be a top-grade one!"

Lin Mo's eyes widened: "Come again?"

Zhuang Weiwan smiled and said:

"Of course. The Taiqing Pill is not an ordinary cultivation pill. It takes at least seven days to make it!"

After saying that, she looked at Lin Mo with fiery eyes:
"Junior brother, you can sit in meditation and regulate your breathing. We need to hurry up. The more Dao Fire is refined, the better the final pill effect will be!"

Lin Mo: “…”

Why do I always feel like something is wrong?
……

……

The next morning.

Lin Mo sat slumped on the stone slabs in the courtyard with a pale face, his cheeks slightly sunken, and his whole body seemed to be drained of energy.

On the contrary, although Zhuang Weiwan's dark circles had deepened, his complexion had become much rosier and no longer as pale as before:
"You can stop for a moment, Junior Brother Lin!"

Hearing this, Lin Mo let out a breath of relief.

After a whole night of hard work, he managed to squeeze out at least fifty small flames from the fire.

Even though the quantity is not large, every drop of it is like his "essence and blood".

Every time the fire runs out, there is a feeling of exhaustion as if the true energy has been emptied.

This process was repeated at least five times a night, which was more painful than pulling 1 all-nighters.

After Zhuang Weiwan sent the Dao fire into the ancient cauldron, he pinched the Dao formula and temporarily sealed the ancient cauldron that was refining the elixir. Then he wiped the sweat off his face, turned his head and said to him:

"Junior Brother Lin, you can now check the refining progress on the panel."

Lin Mo was stunned, and subconsciously cast his eyes to his system. The first thing he saw was the prompt refreshed on the panel:
[The True Flame is refined a little bit, and the purity ratio of the fire element spirit root is increased: 43.3%→46%]

It has increased so much! ?

Lin Mo was startled and quickly checked the refining progress bar of [True Flame]: 12% → 30%
hiss~!

18% refined in one night! ?
Moreover, he could clearly feel that although his body was drained, the size of the flame on his fingertips had expanded a little compared to before, and the temperature was also much higher.

Lin Mo took a deep breath, finally feeling that his hard work all night was not in vain.

At this time, Zhuang Weiwan said:

"Isn't the refining method particularly simple? All you need to do is drain the flames in the fire again and again to continuously catalyze the refining progress of the fire."

She looked at Lin Mo, who was lying in a puddle, with a bright smile:

"So Junior Brother Lin, please come over early in the evening. I'll be waiting for you!"
