Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 107 The Incredibly Foolish Elder Huo

Xiao Jue nodded. "Give me the remaining ingredients for the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill."

Elder Huo remained silent in embarrassment, continuing to refine the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill in the cauldron. Xiao Jue was both amused and exasperated; it seemed that two of the medicinal ingredients had failed to be refined.

He didn't say anything more, took out the Yin-Yang Cauldron and a set of ingredients for the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill and began to refine them. Finally, after Xiao Jue's Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill was successfully refined, Elder Huo's Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill was also refined.

Elder Huo placed nine jade bottles and six portions of ingredients for the Breakthrough Pill into the storage ring and handed it to Xiao Jue, bowing his head and saying, "This disciple has failed the Dean."

"It's alright." Xiao Jue waved his hand, took the storage ring, and used his soul power to scan it, moving the six portions of Breakthrough Pill ingredients into the Yin-Yang Ring. Then he put the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill that he had just refined into it.

Xiao Jue handed the low-grade storage ring to Elder Huo and said, "Afterwards, go to the inner courtyard and give Hu Jia two three-patterned Azure Spirit Pills and two Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pills, and Xue Ni one three-patterned Azure Spirit Pill and two Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pills. Then give this storage ring and the remaining three pills to Xiao Ning. Now prepare to watch me refine seventh-grade pills."

Hu Jia can take two Purple Heart Breakthrough Pills and one Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill to break through to the Dou Ling level, and then she can directly take the second Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill.

Xiao Ning and Xue Ni both took the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill to break through to the first-star Great Dou Master level, and then took two Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pills to break through to the second-star level.

"yes!"

Elder Huo looked at Xiao Jue with a solemn expression. What Xiao Jue wanted to refine was, of course, the Azure Nether Pill. After all, he was most familiar with this kind of seventh-grade pill. Once he successfully refined the Azure Nether Pill, Elder Huo could then refine the sixth-grade pill.

At that time, Xiao Jue will be able to multitask, instructing Elder Huo on one hand and refining the Breakthrough Pill on the other, showing off in front of him.

Three days passed, and at the moment the Azure Nether Pill was completed, Elder Huo swallowed hard and said earnestly, "This disciple will go and shield the Dean from the pill lightning."

"No need." Xiao Jue looked at the Azure Nether Pill inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron, waved his hand, and a streak of silver shot into the sky, directly into the thunderclouds.

After the Earth Demon Puppet landed, Xiao Jue's eyes were filled with satisfaction. With six portions of Azure Nether Pills and one portion of Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill, along with seven seventh-grade pill lightning bolts, the Earth Demon Puppet's strength had been raised to a level comparable to a Seven-Star Dou Zong.

"This is..." Elder Huo looked at the silver puppet in front of Xiao Jue in surprise. The aura of this puppet seemed to be not much different from that of the two elders, Qianbai and Erla.

"The puppet, made from the corpse of the Earth Demon Old Ghost, incorporates a large amount of materials and can absorb rare metals from the pill lightning to enhance its strength."

Xiao Jue put away the Earth Demon Puppet, casually explained it to Elder Huo, and then said, "Prepare to refine a sixth-grade pill. Just choose any pill formula, and tell me what medicinal materials you need."

Elder Huo pondered for a moment and said, "This disciple intends to refine the Battle Spirit Pill."

"Let's begin then, let's start refining."

Xiao Jue took out a portion of the ingredients for the Breakthrough Pill and placed it aside. After taking a handful of Qi-restoring pills, he began refining the ingredients for the Breakthrough Pill.

This scene left Elder Huo dumbfounded. Was he planning to refine the Breakthrough Pill while simultaneously instructing him on how to refine the Battle Spirit Pill?

At this moment, instructing Elder Huo on how to refine the Dou Ling Pill gave Xiao Jue the same feeling as when he taught Xiao Yan how to refine a first-grade pill, which was both funny and exasperating.

Each time a medicinal herb is refined, the refined liquid must be poured into a jade bottle before refining the next herb. Only after the flame temperature meets the requirements is the herb put into the cauldron.

Therefore, it took Elder Huo three whole days to refine this Douling Pill. Only after Xiao Jue had successfully refined both of his Breaking Sect Pills did he begin to fuse the pills.

Seeing the energy beam bursting out from Elder Huo's cauldron, Xiao Jue was so angry he couldn't speak. He finally understood why Elder Yao had scolded Xiao Yan when he was refining pills—it was because Xiao Jue's previous performance had implicated Xiao Yan.

After teaching Xiao Yan and Yao Yue, Xiao Jue was speechless at Elder Huo's talent for alchemy.

Xiao Jue took a deep breath and asked, "Can you guarantee that you can extract the medicinal herbs in one go without failure?"

Elder Huo said awkwardly, "This disciple is worried that we will fail..."

"There's no such thing as a pill-refining process without failure!" Xiao Jue was speechless. He handed the two Breakthrough Pills to Elder Huo and said, "These are your and Wu Tianlang's Breakthrough Pills. Before you ask me for guidance next time, make sure you can refine the Battle Spirit Pill smoothly first."

"After you break through to the Dou Zong realm, you will help the inner academy elders refine Dou Ling pills. From now on, all the sixth-grade pills needed by the elders of Canaan Academy, except for the high-grade sixth-grade pills, will be made by you. I will only help with the high-grade sixth-grade pills and the seventh-grade pills."

"Yes." Elder Huo lowered his head in shame. He couldn't bear to see that he could achieve this level of success with the backing of Canaan Academy, but his talent was undeniable.

However, after breaking through to the Dou Zong realm, his soul power will also increase slightly, and at that time, the success rate of refining sixth-grade pills should also increase significantly.

"Go."

Xiao Jue waved his hand. After Elder Huo finished refining the Fighting Spirit Pill and left, Xiao Jue continued to refine the Azure Nether Pill. He still had four portions of Azure Nether Pill ingredients left. He would return to the inner courtyard after all four Azure Nether Pills were successfully refined.

Having learned from his previous experience, Xiao Jue refined the Azure Nether Pill with ease. However, having experienced the bittersweet joy of refining pills for the first time, Xiao Jue is now more cautious and deliberate in his pill refining process.

The latest novel is first published here!

But that was when he had just become an alchemist; now, Xiao Jue has achieved a state of perfect tranquility.

After successfully refining four Azure Nether Pills in twelve days, Xiao Jue put away the Earth Demon Puppet that had protected him and blocked the pill lightning, and left the Demon Beast Mountain Range in a flash.

……

After returning to the inner courtyard, Xiao Jue wanted to experience a different way of playing. After feeding the others, he decided to take Hu Jia, who had broken through to the three-star Dou Ling level, to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

"Are you sure you can directly help me refine a portion of the Azure Nether Pill's medicinal power inside the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower?" Hu Jia looked at Xiao Jue expectantly. Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei were both Dou Wang, and with Ruolin and Xue Ni protected by them, she couldn't easily take advantage of them.

Hu Jia now wants to break through to the Dou Wang level, and then use her wood-attribute Dou Qi to condense tree branches to help them. Even if she has to bind them and let Xiao Jue teach them a lesson, she will feel very relieved.

"You'll know once you try it." Xiao Jue took out a scroll and handed it to Hu Jia, saying, "This is the Earth-rank low-level wood-attribute technique, Azure Wood Technique. After you break through to the Dou Wang level, I can also let you cultivate the Earth-rank high-level Azure Wood Longevity Technique."

"Really?" Hu Jia's eyes lit up. It was a low-level Earth-rank cultivation technique, the one her grandfather, Hu Qian, practiced. Not long ago, he gave her a Qingming Pill and then directly passed the technique on to her.

However, it now appears that the Green Wood Technique and the Green Wood Longevity Technique are clearly similar cultivation methods, making it easier to switch between them. Therefore, Hu Jia chose to cultivate the Green Wood Technique.

"Let's go then." Hu Jia happily tiptoed, grabbed Xiao Jue's arm, and left the pavilion together, heading towards the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

Along the way, some people saw them and couldn't help but be curious. They had heard of Hu Jia, the little vixen from the outer courtyard, but they didn't know her sexual orientation.
