The King of the Gods
Chapter 122: The Purification Pill
“Mengxiang, don't be disrespectful! It's your fault, you failed! ” Said Yun Yao firmly.
As soon as those words came out of his mouth, Yun Mengxiang realized that the matter of his 'daughter' had appeared again. His Daughter's identity was not very effective in the Clan and his father and aunt had repeatedly warned him not to offend powerful cultivators with his attitude.
Zhao Feng was a disciple that Guan's parents and Zhang's parents fought for and it wasn't a good idea to offend someone with such status and potential. But maybe because he had already gotten familiar with Zhao Feng the past few days and the latter calmed down, he had forgotten about this.
"It's okay, it's his attitude." Zhao Feng laughed and he did not put it in his heart.
The main point here was pill refining. Ever since he entered the Grass-Wood Division, Zhao Feng started to find interest in pill making and this interest was established by the lure of the 'Spiritual Pill'.
Zhao Feng thought that if he became a pill expert, he could refine all the pills he needed. It can support his cultivation and save money. Pill makers are hot jobs in the Clan.
"Zhao Feng, did you see the mistake Yun Mengxiang made earlier?" Yun Yao decided to test Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng was not afraid of giving Yun Mengxiang an overly large blow: “First, he was too careful like a rat, so his flame was too small and the temperature was not high enough. Second, there were some mistakes he made while controlling the flame and since the fire was small, it was instantly extinguished. Of course, it is the most obvious mistake, I am too lazy to say another small mistake.”
Hearing this, Yun Mengxiang was so angry that he trembled, but he could not explode. If it was a normal person, he would have already sent them flying with a kick. Being a princess, when had anyone said something like this to her before?
"En, the key points have been said." Said Yun Yao praising as she nodded her head.
Yun Mengxiang could only suppress his anger. A light flashed across his eyes as he smiled and said: "Mengxiang is too stupid, can pill master Zhao teach me?"
"I'm not a pill expert."
Zhao Fengs heart surged, obviously Yun Mengxiang praised him so that the fall would be even greater.
Every pill learner was unlikely to succeed on their first try.
After Yun Mengxiang failed, it was Zhao Fengs turn. In his mind, the process of Yun Yao creating the blood pill appeared.
Over the past few days, Zhao Feng had tried several times to open fire, control fire and add materials, but it was all a test.
It is much more difficult to put all the steps together and complete them in one breath.
Controlling the fire was the most important and the slightest mistake could shake the result.
First step, put the ingredients.
Zhao Feng's left eye slowly opened and he took out one portion of each required ingredient. Among the same materials, there are good and bad that can affect moisture and other such small things.
Zhao Feng chose the most suitable composition and Yun Yao, who had noticed this small action, nodded her head in praise.
Just in the first step of choosing their materials, Zhao Feng had defeated Yun Mengxiang.
After the materials were selected, Zhao Feng put them into the furnace in order and placed them in certain places.
Heat furnaces are not even everywhere, there are high and low heat places respectively.
The first step, 'adding the material' has been completed.
Zhao Feng did not miss any steps and if his steps were clumsy or hesitant, the pill refining process of Yun Yao would appear in his mind.
Step two, start the fire.
Starting a fire seems simple, but there is a process.
The size and temperature of these flames could not possibly be wrong, but a low grade pill like a blood pill did not require a very specific flame.
Zhao Feng lit a piece of coal and a small red flame appeared.
Next is the most important step - controlling the fire.
Zhao Feng concentrated, he opened his left eye and used his inner strength to directly affect the flame. One needed to reach the 7th rank of the Consolidated Realm to become a pill learner because only then could their inner strength leave their body and affect the flames. Even so, this was the worst way but if one hadn't even reached the 7th rank yet, how could they have done this?
Zhao Feng's fire control was extremely strong and the small flames were spread evenly across the furnace.
As time passed, a faint medicinal smell wafted from the furnace.
Zhao Feng occasionally added a few more embers to keep the flame in check and although he was not used to controlling the flame, it was natural for him.
This was because his left eye was precise and he could control his inner strength well.
For a full 2 hours, Zhao Feng was still casually controlling the flames. This made Yun Mengxiang's expression slightly change, he had not expected Zhao Feng's inner strength to be so dense and thick.
If it was him, his inner strength would be exhausted.
“Use every power for proper use. He has achieved mastery in controlling the flame.”
Yao Yun sighed, his skill in controlling fire could already be compared to some of the older pill experts.
At this moment, Yun Yao could not help but admire the eyes of old man Guan. Zhao Feng was indeed an expert in pill making.
Pill making calls for precision, especially in fire control.
Two hours later, Zhao Feng's inner strength slowly faded and the flame extinguished.
The remaining heat from the furnace still made the furnace give off a medicinal smell.
Zhao Feng sniffed it and he discovered that it indeed belonged to a blood pill. The smell was now ten times stronger than before as it had just been made.
After waiting for a while, Zhao Feng tapped his finger into the air.
From the furnace leaped dozens of blood red pills.
This is the last step, opening the furnace.
One had to determine the time when to open the furnace. If it is too early, the pill may not have hardened and if it is too late, the size of the pill may be too large and cracked. Under that situation, the pill might explode and destroy the entire pill refining space …
Shua!
Zhao Feng waved his robe and grabbed dozens of red blood pills with his hands.
"Let me see the success rate." Yun Yao said with a smile.
Success rate?
Zhao Feng stopped, but he immediately remembered what this meant.
When a batch of pills was made, there was always a success rate. For example, out of the ten pills, there might only be 5 pills that were successfully made, the others were trash pills or pills that were of no grade.
Zhao Feng handed all the pills to Yun Yao.
“It can't possibly all be a non-grade and useless pill, right?” Yun Mengxiang laughed.
At this moment, he saw that his aunt's face was serious and full of shock.
“Thirteen blood pills, 1 perfect pill, 4 excellent, 6 normal and 2 others slightly below normal standard but still in normal category.”
Yun Yao could not hold a cold breath: "If the requirements are not strict, this is a 100% success rate%."
100%!
Yun Mengxiang's face turned pale in fear like he was terrified. Then, he and Yun Yao looked at Zhao Feng with complex emotions.
"This is your first time refining pills?"
Surprise and questions had yet to disappear from Yun Yao's face.
"It's so thick."
Zhao Feng's heart was a little weak, he didn't expect his accuracy and control to be so good.
After his confirmation, Yun Yao and Yun Mengxiang seemed to have been beaten up and their souls lost.
"these 13 pills were made by you, so you have them."
Yun Yao returned the pill Zhao Feng purified to him.
Then. There wasn't that time.
Zhao Feng was expelled for no reason, leaving only Yun Yao and Yun Mengxiang.
"Auntie, why don't you teach her again?"
“How can I teach a prodigy like him? This is a miracle! How could one have a 100% success rate when refining their first batch pill? ” Yun Yao sighed in despair.
How is this possible!?
Yun Mengxiang was silent.
“Hide this for now. All you have to do now is not to offend him and maintain a good relationship with him.” Yun Yao said.
…..
After leaving the purification room, Zhao Feng thought hard.
“That's how... No matter how great the pill maker is, it is difficult for them to have a 100% success rate even if they are a pill expert, unless they are making pills well below their usual standards.”.
Zhao Feng finally realized that his 100% success rate was staggering. Since this was his first time refining pills, he had no standards and he still made a 100% success rate%.
Over the next few days, Zhao Feng was much more relaxed and free, the tasks that Guan's parents had given him had been completed.
During the day, he would occasionally read some books and at night, he would cultivate. His main focus was still the Silver Wall Technique. But after reaching level 9, his progress slowed down.
It would at least take a few years before his Armor Wall Technique reached level 10, according to his analysis. Zhao Feng could only wait and hope that Vice Chief Guan would give him some more Spiritual Pills. If not, he can make it himself later…
Time passed quickly and Zhao Feng had stayed in the Clan for half a month now.
Of the disciples who had just entered, Xiao Sun, Yun Mengxian and Liu Yue'er had the most improvement. Xiao Sun seemed to have reached half a step - the Ascended Realm while Yun Mengxiang and Liu Yue'er had reached the peak of the 9th rank of the Consolidated Realm.
Such speed was a miracle in the mortal world. But in the Clan, it was quick but not surprising. The nine stages of Consolidated Realm were only the beginning.
Zhao Feng knew that Yun Mengxiang had a pill master aunt, so he had eaten at least 5 or more of the Marrow Cleaning Pills, but Liu Yue'er could not be found among the outer disciples.
Some said that he had been taken by another Elder and became the 3rd person to become an Elder disciple after Bei Moi and Sun Yuanhao.
Both Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan had each reached the 9th rank half-step and the 9th rank.
Compared to the others, Zhao Fengs cultivation speed was not fast. Although he focused mainly on the Silver Wall Technique, his cultivation still broke through to the 9th rank.
