If I let you lie low and remain the Dragon King, would you have unified the primordial world?

Chapter 96 The elixir is successfully refined, and the reward is in hand!

Ao Bai and his group entered the Blood River, where there was plenty of essence blood, enough for them to use.

"There's a lot of essence blood here. Let's filter it all out first, and then do a detailed differentiation back in the Water Palace."

The three of them set out to collect the essence blood. Although there was a lot of essence blood here, it was mixed with the blood of those above the Great Luo Golden Immortal level and the low-level essence blood, making it extremely impure. They had to sift it out little by little before it could be used to refine pills.

However, filtering out all the essence blood from this boundless river of blood is no easy task.

Ao Bai and his companions went all out and spent hundreds of years to barely collect a portion of the essence blood. However, this collection contained many impurities and was not entirely composed of essence blood of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level or above.

The collection speed was too slow, so after Ao Bai and the others collected a portion of the essence blood, they got up and returned to Henghe Water Mansion.

"Why not send our subordinates to collect essence blood? Once they bring back essence blood and refine it into pills, they can be distributed to others according to the established ratio."

Ao Bai really didn't want to waste his time on this. If he were to collect essence blood, he probably wouldn't be able to collect even one unit in a thousand years.

This is indeed a time-consuming task; it would be more cost-effective for other subordinates to do it.

Ordinary beings would spend time collecting essence blood, which Ao Bai would then refine into pills and distribute some to the other party.

This will improve the other person's bloodline aptitude, allowing them to cultivate faster and catch up with those who are lagging behind. It will also greatly benefit their future cultivation.

Ao Bai only needs to act as an alchemist and be responsible for refining pills.

"My son is right. Other beings cultivate too slowly. If their bloodlines can be advanced, it will be of great help to them. This is a great opportunity."

Ao Feng also supported this idea, after all, the opportunity to purify bloodlines is not something everyone can have.

Ao Bai and his team provide the "technology," while their subordinates provide the "materials." Only through their cooperation can they improve "efficiency."

After returning to Henghe Water Palace, Ao Bai was mainly responsible for purifying bloodlines and separating essence blood.

This involves the operation of alchemy, which is generally beyond the reach of cultivators.

The reason why Chief Bai Ze and his group repeatedly failed to refine pills was because they couldn't even get past this hurdle.

They didn't know how to refine blood and remove impurities, let alone the subsequent process of refining it into pills.

Ao Bai took out the Wind and Fire Furnace and began refining.

The three of them collected a considerable amount of essence blood this time, enough to refine more than ten batches of pills.

However, Ao Bai had never refined this kind of pill before, so the initial success rate was bound to be low.

"First, separate the essence and blood."

Ao Bai activated the Wind and Fire Furnace to slowly refine, filter, classify, and store various essences and blood.

He soon discovered that much of this essence blood was unusable.

The amount of true essence blood of a Great Luo Golden Immortal is not large, and the amount that can be used to refine pills is even smaller.

"These essences contain different powers, with the most from the five elements of beings, and also from the essences of other beings. These cannot be refined together."

Ao Bai shook his head repeatedly. The five elements are mutually generating and mutually restraining, and the essence and blood of different beings are difficult to be compatible. If one wants to refine pills, one must distinguish them in detail before one can begin refining pills.

This isn't difficult, but it's quite troublesome to do.

To separate all the essence and blood into individual parts, it requires a step-by-step process, which takes a considerable amount of time.

Ao Bai didn't care and immediately got to work.

The Blood Refining Divine Pill has extraordinary effects, so refining it is naturally not an easy task.

As the sun rose and set, and the stars shifted, Ao Bai, after much effort, finally managed to separate all of his essence and blood.

Now, only seven portions of essence blood remain that can be used to refine elixirs.

After confirming again, Ao Bai began his first attempt.

The process of refining the Blood Refining Divine Pill is not simple; in fact, it can be described as quite complicated.

However, Ao Bai clearly had enough patience. He always had an extraordinary tenacity when it came to anything that could help him improve his strength.

"start!"

After confirming that everything was correct, Ao Bai immediately took action.

Flames surged within the Wind and Fire Furnace, and the temperature began to rise rapidly.

Once the furnace reached the required temperature, he placed the prepared essence blood and various auxiliary materials into it one by one.

The essence blood of a Great Luo Golden Immortal is extremely precious. Although there is the essence blood of a Chaos Demon God in the Blood River, so many years have passed, and it is unknown how much has been lost. Obviously, the remaining amount will become less and less.

It's quite impressive that Ao Bai was able to find these items this time.

Because of the precious materials, Ao Bai was very careful in its refining process.

He was completely focused, operating carefully, slowly refining the essence and blood, and meticulously controlling the heat.

Flames licked the alchemy furnace, and boundless spiritual energy slowly gathered and merged into the essence blood.

These essences had been dormant for countless years, gradually losing their divinity and decaying. But now, the renewed infusion of spiritual energy has made them shine again.

Each drop of essence blood was like a priceless treasure, radiating a dazzling and brilliant divine light.

Various powerful auras permeated the air; these were the divine powers that were originally contained within the blood, now manifesting once more.

"roar!"

The roar reverberated in all directions, and a terrifying pressure permeated the heavens and earth.

It was as if countless demons were engaged in fierce battles and slaughter, turning this place into a battlefield of carnage.

Although the blood in the alchemy furnace had the same properties, it was clear that they did not belong to the same powerful individual. Therefore, when they were fused together, they inevitably experienced rejection.

Ao Bai clearly hadn't expected that this essence blood could unleash such terrifying power.

His mind was shaken, and the flames suddenly intensified. The essence blood was instantly burned and mutated, and the first batch of pills ended in failure.

Ao Bai sighed slightly. He really hadn't expected this situation. This failure was well-deserved.

"Again!"

Driven by his stubbornness, Ao Bai immediately cleaned the alchemy furnace, adjusted his state, and began the second refining process.

Having learned from his first failure, Ao Bai calmed himself and started again.

This time, the elixir successfully passed the fusion stage, with various essences and blood merging into one, continuously contracting, refining, and slowly condensing into a pill.

"Boom!"

However, it failed again just as the elixir was about to solidify.

Ao Bai couldn't help but pick up the failed medicine residue to examine it, carefully deduce the reason for the failure.

He quickly realized what was going on and began refining it for the third time.

Despite failing twice in a row, Ao Bai was not discouraged. He quickly adjusted his mindset and threw himself into the task.

This time, the various essences and blood were perfectly fused together, and the elixir was successfully condensed. Waves of blood-red light emanated from the elixir furnace, permeating the entire hall.

"It's done!"

Ao Bai cheered and opened the alchemy furnace. A blood-gold pill floated inside the furnace.

It is indeed the Blood Refining Divine Pill!

This elixir had no fragrance, and even its radiance was tinged with blood, making it look extremely mysterious.

"Using the essence and blood of others to refine my divine medicine, it is truly 'what is poison to them is honey to me'."

Despite his feelings of regret, Ao Bai did not stop.

He put the elixir into a jade bottle and continued refining it.

With the experience of successfully refining pills, Ao Bai became increasingly confident in his ability to do so.

Soon all the materials were used up, and the seven materials were refined into four portions of [Blood Refining Divine Pill].

Looking at the four pills in his hand, Ao Bai's face lit up with joy.

"It seems my talent for alchemy is quite remarkable!"

Ao Bai smiled smugly and got up to walk towards his father's main hall.

He wanted to take this opportunity to promote the [Blood Refining Divine Pill] and, incidentally, motivate everyone to collect essence blood.

Ao Bai played this move very skillfully.

Chief Bai Ze quickly received the news and immediately led the clan elders to the scene.

"I didn't expect Your Highness to have successfully refined the Blood Refining Divine Pill so quickly."

Chief Bai Ze's eyes shone with divine light; he still found it unbelievable.

When he retrieved the essence blood, he didn't have much hope.

You have to know how many times their Bai Ze clan has failed, but unfortunately they haven't even obtained a single pill.

Ao Bai has only refined it a few times, and he's already succeeded.

Comparing yourself to others is just asking for trouble!

The elders of the Bai Ze clan stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what they were seeing.

It wasn't until Ao Bai took out a [Blood Refining Divine Pill] that the doubt and disbelief in the eyes of these elders completely disappeared, turning into shock and awe.

Ao Feng smiled, but his eyes also held a hint of shock.

He knew very well how difficult it was to refine pills of this level, but Ao Bai succeeded in refining them after only a few attempts, something that others simply could not achieve.

"Your Highness, I didn't expect you to refine a pill so quickly. You're truly amazing!"

The elder of the Bai Ze clan was filled with admiration, his eyes brimming with worship.

If he had some doubts about Ao Bai before, it was because Ao Bai's strength was too low.

But now, Ao Bai's displayed talent has completely won him over.

"Yes, our Bai Ze clan has devoted all our resources and the strength of the entire clan to refining it for countless years, but unfortunately, we have never succeeded even once. Yet Your Highness has managed to refine a Blood Refining Divine Pill with a single move, which truly earns our admiration!"

The Second Elder also praised Ao Bai highly. He wasn't flattering Ao Bai; he was an alchemist trained by the Bai Ze clan and knew the most about refining such divine pills.

Ao Bai laughed:

"What I've refined isn't just a single pill."

Ao Bai's words immediately silenced everyone.

Each of these Blood Refining Divine Pills is a rare treasure, yet Ao Bai used only a few materials to refine more than one!

"Your Highness, could it be that you have successfully refined two pills?"

The Second Elder's eyes widened in disbelief; he truly couldn't believe it.

Ao Bai successfully refined two Blood Refining Divine Pills in one go, which was something the Second Elder, who knew the difficulty of refining this pill, could not even imagine.

The elder's heart pounded as he watched Ao Bai still smiling.

"Your Highness, you haven't actually refined three divine pills, have you?"

Refining three divine pills at once was something Bai Ze and his companions could never have imagined.

Ao Bai didn't keep them in suspense any longer. He opened the small jade bottle, and the Bai Ze clan chief and others all peeked out to look.

Even Ao Feng was very curious at this moment, and he wanted to see how many pills Ao Bai had refined.

"Four pills!"

Chief Bai Ze exclaimed in surprise. He truly hadn't expected that Ao Bai would actually succeed in refining four divine pills in one go.

All the creatures around were filled with shock.

They had some understanding of Ao Bai's alchemy skills before, but this time everyone's understanding of him was refreshed once again.

Ao Bai said:

"This time, materials were limited, so only four pills were made. However, there is still a lot of essence blood in that boundless blood river, which everyone can collect at any time. As long as you collect enough essence blood, I will refine it into pills and distribute them to you first."

As soon as Ao Bai said this, everyone immediately erupted in excitement.

What are the effects of the Blood Refining Divine Pill?

That's like cleansing your marrow and refining your bloodline!

Such powerful elixirs are not only unique, but also unheard of at present.

However, Ao Bai agreed to refine it for everyone, just like the [Breakthrough Pill] from before!

Although the materials were hard to find, they still gave everyone a glimmer of hope.

Moreover, the essence blood of the Great Luo Golden Immortal is in the boundless blood river, which can be said to be readily available!

Compared to the Breakthrough Pill, the Blood Refining Divine Pill is obviously more accessible to everyone.

Ao Bai's words immediately ignited everyone's fighting spirit.

Of the four pills, Ao Bai, Ao Feng, and the Bai Ze clan chief each received one, while Ao Bai kept the remaining one for himself.

"Everyone is a pillar of our Henghe Water Mansion. In the future, when we have more pills, we will use them to reward everyone, so that many of our fellow Daoists will have the opportunity to take these precious pills. Right now, the quantity is too small, so I will keep them for everyone in advance."

The pills were refined by Ao Bai, and no one would object if he kept them.

Moreover, Ao Bai always keeps his word. He said he would help everyone refine pills, and he would never break his promise.

Everyone knows perfectly well about the last time Ao Bai refined the [Breakthrough Pill] for Xuanwu.

"Your Highness, let's go collect the essence blood now."

Everyone was excited and stood up one after another, looking impatient.

Ao Bai's current prestige has clearly surpassed that of the old Dragon King; he is more like the ruler of the Henghe Water Palace.

The old Dragon King was quite pleased with this. Ever since Ao Bai took over the Henghe Water Mansion, the strength of their lineage had been steadily increasing. The old Dragon King had to admit that Ao Bai was indeed more capable than him.

Ao Bai didn't stop everyone. What he wanted was for everyone to actively participate. Only in this way could Ao Bai obtain more Blood Refining Pills. It was a win-win situation, and Ao Bai wouldn't work for nothing.

Immediately after everyone left, Ao Bai also chose to go into seclusion again.

With the Blood Refining Divine Pill in hand, he must improve his bloodline as soon as possible.

Bloodline purification is of great significance to a cultivator.

This will directly affect his future cultivation and breakthroughs; it can be said to be a huge change.

Even one's luck and fortune will improve as one's bloodline improves; they are all interconnected as a whole.

Just then, the rewards that Ao Bai and the others had received for their previous battle against Blood River Daoist finally arrived in their accounts.

This time, the reward process has been delayed for quite some time.
