Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 124 Just Treat It as a Meal

After washing the mud off his body, Xiao Yan changed his clothes and went into the cave. He poured all the herbs in the ring given by Ruoruo onto the stone and began to refine the medicine.

In fact, he had thought about trying to refine a second-grade elixir several days ago. After all, in this Demon Beast Mountain Range, fighting took up most of the time. Once the alchemy skills fell behind, it would obviously be very difficult to catch up with the progress of cultivation.

However, due to the many events that happened one after another, and the fact that Xu Ling Swallowing Flame was about to transform, Xiao Yan had no time to take care of this matter, which delayed him for a lot of time.

Therefore, the fasting pill that Ruoruo needed naturally became the stepping stone for Xiao Yan to be promoted to a second-grade alchemist.

The grade of the Qigong Pill is the initial stage of the second grade. It is a relatively common consumable pill. Its function is to provide abundant energy to replenish the energy consumed by monks who have failed to achieve Qigong.

Since this pill is considered the easiest to refine among the second-grade pills, many alchemists who are trying to advance to the second grade usually regard it as a practice work, and it is very popular.

After taking out the Autumn Fruit that exuded the fragrance of medicine and grain, and throwing it into the Tempering Flame Cauldron, Xiao Yan's mind moved slightly, and the Void Spirit Swallowing Flame turned into a thin line of fire, nimbly drilled into the fire mouth, and began to temper it.

As the fruit turned into powder, Xiao Yan's eyes focused, and then he took out a second-level wood-attribute magic core and threw it into the cauldron through the mouth. In an instant, it turned into a pool of light green liquid and merged with the powder.

With soul power far exceeding that of alchemists of the same level, Xiao Yan's fire control ability has reached an extremely proficient level. However, the degree of control over fire in alchemy and combat is different. The control of fire obviously requires more precision as support than power.

Under Xiao Yan's concentrated control, time passed rapidly. After rolling countless times, the liquid in the medicine cauldron gradually lost its moisture and began to solidify into a round sphere.

"Congeal!"

Suddenly, Xiao Yan shouted in his heart and slammed his palms on the Tempering Flame Cauldron. Mysterious waves came, causing the dark corners of the cave to glow with a glass-colored halo.

The next moment, the lid of the cauldron was suddenly lifted up, and an exquisite round pill flew out. Xiao Yan had expected it and caught it in his palm, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The second-grade elixir is done!
A circle of faint lines was engraved on it, and the light medicinal fragrance that the elixir should have turned into a unique aroma that makes one's mouth water, and it came to the nose like stewed rice.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

A pleasant cheer came from behind him, as if it could dispel all his fatigue. Xiao Yan looked back, only to find that the girl who was supposed to be waiting outside the cave had unexpectedly sat in a corner not far away.

"The Autumn Fruit needed to refine the Fasting Pill is similar to medicine but not quite. Only when the quality reaches the level of engraving pill patterns can the medicinal fragrance fade away and transform into this kind of grain fragrance. It seems that the "Qualified Second-Rank Chef" should be removed."

Hun Ruoruo stared at the pill in Xiao Yan's hand with great interest, her chin resting on her arms on her knees, shaking her little head slightly.

Because of the strange fire, the temperature in the cave was much higher than outside. Therefore, beads of sweat seemed to appear on the girl's smooth forehead, making her look like the girl next door who was watching over the cooking fire, which made Xiao Yan slightly stunned.

Ruoruo, you really like making medicine.

After coming back to his senses, this thought subconsciously flashed through Xiao Yan's mind, and then he had a somewhat fanciful thought: if there is a suitable strange fire as an aid, even if the fighting spirit attributes do not meet the requirements, can he still practice alchemy?
Otherwise, it would be such a pity for her.

After putting the elixir into the jade bottle, Xiao Yan quickly put away the medicine cauldron that was still emitting a scorching heat. He took a deep breath and said with a smile, "I am glad that I have fulfilled my mission."

"Hehe, thank you Third Young Master for the pill."

Hun Ruoruo held the jade bottle in her palm, a mysterious look on her face, and whispered, "Don't worry, when I succeed in breaking through, I will definitely remember your contribution."

After saying that, she waved her hand, not giving Xiao Yan any chance to reply, and left the cave briskly, gradually disappearing from Xiao Yan's sight.

"Ruoruo, what are you planning now?"

Scratching his head in confusion, Xiao Yan retracted his gaze and sighed helplessly, wondering if he had been used up and then thrown away. "Don't worry, the bottleneck of the Douhuang realm alone can't hold her back."

Just as he was daydreaming, a faint light suddenly flashed from the ring, and Yao Lao's voice, which contained a comforting tone, suddenly sounded.

"However, you did surprise me a little. You were able to refine a second-grade elixir engraved with elixir patterns in just one go. Now, you can truly call yourself a second-grade alchemist."

"Teacher, why do I feel like your comments aren't as professional as Ruoruo's?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but respond subconsciously. The next moment, there was a sudden muffled sound of skull collision above his head, which made him gasp.

hiss.
it hurts.

Shortly after.

Hun Ruoruo came to the hidden place she had found earlier and began to make final preparations before breaking through.

In fact, as early as the previous two days, she had adjusted her condition to the peak, but choosing to break through too hastily was not a wise choice.

In order to advance to the Douhuang level, she not only invested a lot of effort and time, but was also forced to take the risk of accepting the purple crystal seal, which resulted in the loss of all her cultivation and put her in danger.

She had already tasted the bitter fruit of being too impatient, so there was no reason for her to make the same mistake again.

Because of this, Hun Ruoruo forcibly restrained the desire that was just one step away from a breakthrough, walked out of her retreat, and went to find Xiao Yan with the purpose of calming her own state of mind.

In her opinion, the only thing that could distract her attention, apart from cultivation, was alchemy. Perhaps because she couldn't get it, she had always had a strong interest in it.

The fact was just as she expected. After carefully watching the process of Xiao Yan refining the pill, her mood finally became peaceful. Her spirit and energy were much higher than before, and she even had a sense of perfection.

Hun Ruoruo narrowed her starry eyes slightly and drew out the remaining strand of fighting spirit. The disguised fighting spirit that was originally maintained on the surface of her body suddenly dissipated, and her pink skin turned pale again.

"Next, it's time to break through."

She took out a mottled stone from her ring, and with a slight movement of her mind, she injected a trace of fighting spirit into it.

After the infusion of fighting spirit, the hidden golden lines on the stone were illuminated, and an invisible isolation barrier quietly enveloped the dim cave.

This place is not as eye-catching as the Lion King's Cave. As long as isolation measures are taken, the monsters with weak perception will not be able to detect it.

After doing all this, Hun Ruoruo first took out the pill given by Yao Lao, and after hesitating for a moment, she took out the pill refined by Xiao Yan and placed it in the palm of her hand.

At this time, her energy had already recovered by more than half, and with the help of Yao Lao's elixir, she actually didn't need to use her soul power to pull the purple crystal seal, and she would no longer be as exhausted as before.

Therefore, this fasting pill was just an excuse she made up in order to observe Xiao Yan refining the pill.

just
The thought of Xiao Yan's excited expression suddenly came to mind. Hun Ruoruo curled her lips and spoke in a flat and short voice.
"Forget it, just treat it as a meal."

She doesn't like lying, so it's better to do what she says.
