The Azure Sword God
Purifying Pills

Phoenix Mountain

Xiao Yu stared at Jian Chen who was busy making a fire with the furnace on it containing many herbs that he did not know what their functions were.

Busssh!

All of a sudden, the flame burned all the contents of the furnace, this was a better version than the ability to concoct herbs known to Jian Chen.

Using the Eternal Purple Crystal, Jian Chen could see the herbal efficacy of the Sun Grass that could be used by the body and burn all the unneeded parts.

“I always don't understand what you're doing.” Xiao Yu shook his head and continued to wait for Jian Chen to finish concocting all the herbs.

For Jian Chen, he was sweating a little because in order to make something similar to a pill, he needed an extremely high concentration, an extremely large amount of qi to complete it. With just one small mistake, it could make all the herbs break down so a very high concentration was needed and there should be no interference in the process.

Meanwhile, Lei Zhu who had returned from the task given by Cao Ye, put on a slightly dark face. The reason was of course because he did not find any intruders who came to the place.

Lei Zhu did not know what to explain to Cao Ye as he currently had no position to break Cao Ye's words.

“You're back? How did it go?” Cao Ye asked a glance towards Lei Zhu then focused back towards the few things before him. He was also an expert at concocting things even though it might not be as level as Jian Chen.

But Cao Ye also had his own skill, which was to make something like strange powders that could make living things go crazy, unconscious or angry and so on.

“No one is there, lord Cao Ye.” Lei Zhu replied with an awkward smile.

Cao Ye stopped what he was doing and looked towards Lei Zhu with narrowed eyes.

“How is there no one? Do you doubt the illusion technique I put in the driveway to this place?” Cao Ye's eyes were a little dangerous looking at Lei Zhu. He dislikes anyone questioning his ability.

“Not like that.” Lei Zhu hurriedly spoke and continued, “Maybe they first entered this place before all those spirit beasts reached the entrance of this place.”

Cao Ye seemed to have thought for a moment then gave a cold snort.

“This time, bring this potion. Make all the spirit beasts in this place go crazy. Wherever they were, some spirit beasts would detect them. At that very moment, I'll take a shot.” Cao Ye's orders.

Lei Zhu's eyes were a little cold even though it was very hidden. What Cao Ye ordered was the most difficult because he would most likely be caught between all the raging spirit beasts.

Only Cao Ye's residence would not be approached by any spirit animal because of the strange powder created by Cao Ye.

Moreover, the place where all the spirit beasts were located was separated, quite far from Cao Ye's residence.

Lei Zhu understood that when he made one group of spirit beasts crazy, he had to go somewhere else. Is it possible that he could return after all those spirit beasts were crazed? The answer is already in his heart.

“Good.” Lei Zhu had nothing that could make him resist which made Cao Ye feel satisfied then gave him a bag of powder that could drive spirit beasts crazy.

Seeing Lei Zhu's departure, Cao Ye snorted in disgust. “Do you think I didn't notice that you were planning something? Before you make your plans, it's good that a tool like yours can be used in exchange for all the resources I give you!”

Lei Zhu had no idea that his deeply hidden intentions had been discovered by Coa Ye. Right now he keeps moving somewhere and thinking hard what to do.

As Lei Zhu stopped, his gaze was fixed on the direction of the exit. He had intended to escape but was extremely reluctant as the resources in that place could make him reach the first or second stage Martial Grand Master level.

“It seems that I have to find whoever broke into this place and cooperate with them. It is certain Coa Ye can be destroyed!” Inner Lei Zhu angrily then went near the exit after making a decision.

Lei Zhu knew that if he delayed making the spirit beast go berserk, he would be considered a traitor and if he did not meet anyone who went inside, he still had other options, he still had, that is to go from Phoenix Mountain.

At where Jian Chen and Xiao Yu were, Jian Chen was still constantly concocting medicines forming something similar to a pill.

Brak!

Jian Chen closed the cauldron where all the herbs were processed. He let out a long sigh as the most difficult process had been completed. He also put a special firewood that can make the temperature much hotter than ordinary fire.

“Jian Chen, is it done?” Xiao Yu asked who had seen the strange pill-making process within a few hours.

“Only last step. Hopefully the pills I created are not broken.” Reply Jian Chen.

“Is there a possibility of failure?” Xiao Yu asked in surprise as he almost never saw Jian Chen fail.

“Yes, the reason is the temperature for making pills. If the heat is not enough, the pill will not be formed.” Jian Chen replied honestly as he stared at the cauldron that had undergone many cracks due to being unable to withstand the hot temperature he made this time. He knew that this was the last time he used the cauldron he had painstakingly created.

Hearing that, Xiao Yu subconsciously gazed towards the cauldron and instantly fell silent as he saw that Jian Chen's cauldron was experiencing many cracks. If the temperature was raised once more, the cauldron would be destroyed and all Jian Chen's efforts would fail.

Jian Chen and Xiao Yu continued to wait and not until 10 minutes later, a voice that made Jian Chen happy finally sounded.

Brak!

The cauldron cap was thrown into the air which meant that the pill refining was completed.

Jian Chen hurriedly extinguished the flames then looked at the contents of the cauldron. His face was ecstatic for an instant and saw two pills enveloped by a fire-like aura hovering in the middle of the cauldron.

Jian Chen rousing the two pills was without fear of that strange hot aura.

The moment Jian Chen took the two pills, the cauldron he had been using all this time had suffered many cracks like a spider web and then shattered instantly.

“I almost failed!” Jian Chen muttered as he stared at his Pride cauldron which was now a hard clay rubble.
