Chapter 843: Chapter 843: 9 Great Divine Fires
Xiao ng waved her hand, sighing as she spoke, "Forget it, forget it. I’m pretty sure I have no talent in music. I still need to activate it, but I only aim to complete the course, not to specialize."
Seeing that Xiao ng really wasn’t interested, Qin Sisi didn’t say anything more and sent her back to her room to rest early.
Qin Sisi lay in bed, carefully recalling the classes of the past ten days.
Up to today, all ten magic courses had been attended, with only the alchemy lesson to learn tomorrow and the smithing lesson the day after.
Qin Sisi also had a general understanding of her strengths and weaknesses and had ford a rough plan for her future studies.
The next day, nine people arrived at Tiandan Mountain to learn alchemy.
After arriving at Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, and before school started, Qin Sisi always lived in Tiandan Mountain with Ye You.
Once official classes began and she needed to enter the trial tower, she would also choose the trial tower on Tiandan Mountain.
Everything here made her feel familiar, as if the person she yearned for was always by her side.
Teacher Mo Liu, wearing a large gray robe, walked into the magic classroom with firm, standard square steps, neither hurriedly nor slowly.
The magic classroom on Tiandan Mountain was different from the classrooms on other mountains; there were no mirrors on the walls, only ordinary walls, probably because there was no need to learn magic skills.
Teacher Mo Liu, with a pale face and small beard, was solemn and not prone to laughter, displaying the deanor of a true teacher, which involuntarily inspired respect.
He sat down in front of the wall and then gestured for the nine students to sit as well.
Then, Teacher Mo Liu spoke solemnly, "Although alchemy cannot be used directly against enemies, the importance of pills should be self-evident, and I hope you will take it seriously."
After speaking, he took out a pill furnace from his storage ring. The furnace had three slightly curved legs and a lid on top, with intricate patterns carved on its body, looking very ancient and exquisite.
Teacher Mo Liu placed the pill furnace on the ground and took out five herbs; he opened his palm and lit a fla which, oddly enough, was deep blue in color.
At first glance, it looked like a small patch of extrely pure seawater.
Qin Sisi was startled and blurted out, "Eight Desolate Spirit Fire?"
Xiao ng stared at the bunch of deep blue flas, saying with admiration, "So this is the Eight Desolate Spirit Fire, how amazing!"
Before Qin Sisi ca to the Demon Sacred Realm, Ye You had told her many things about it, and she had morized a lot of theoretical knowledge, including an important piece of information about the Demon Sacred Realm’s Ninth Great Divine Flas.
The Ninth Great Divine Flas consisted of the Ninth Heaven Fire, Eight Desolate Spirit Fire, Ziwei Heaven Fire, Sun’s True Fire, Red Lotus Karma Fire, Netherworld Ghost Fire, Hell Demonic Fire, South Ming Fire, and Jade Bone Ice Fire.
Qin Sisi currently only knew that the Ziwei Heaven Fire was in Ye You’s hands, the Red Lotus Karma Fire was in Jiu Ge’s hands, and the Jade Bone Ice Fire was in ng Yu’s hands.
As for the whereabouts of other Divine Fires, although she had so guesses, she did not know for certain. Today, she confird one, that was Mo Liu the teacher’s Eight Desolate Spirit Fire.
Divine Fire was beyond the reach of ordinary flas, not only could it greatly enhance the power of fire magic, but if alchemy and forging arts employed Divine Fire, they would also benefit imnsely, achieving twice the result with half the effort.
As the highest-ranked alchemist in the Demon Sacred Realm, Mo Liu, who possessed one of the Nine Great Divine Flas—the Eight Desolate Spirit Fire—naturally held an advantage that could not be ignored.
So people knew that Mo Liu the teacher possessed the Eight Desolate Spirit Fire, others did not; for those who knew, it was their first ti seeing such miraculous flas, and all gazed in amazent with their eyes wide.
Mo Liu was very satisfied with the students’ expressions of shock and admiration. He nodded and said, "That’s right, this is the Eight Desolate Spirit Fire, now, watch carefully."
After speaking, Mo Liu the teacher began alchemy. He used a deep blue fla to heat the Pill Furnace, while narrating, "Today we will first learn to refine the Spirit Revitalizing Pill, which is very important as it can rapidly restore the magic power consud during battle and is frequently used."
When the Pill Furnace was heated to a certain temperature, Mo Liu the teacher placed one type of herb in it, and after a while, he added a second herb.
Mo Liu the teacher explained the process in great detail, including temperature control, the timing and interval of adding the herbs, their sequence, and mastery over the intensity of the flas.
Two hours later, Mo Liu the teacher extinguished the fla and opened the lid of the Pill Furnace. A faint scent of dicine wafted out, and just inhaling a few tis made one feel refreshed and reinvigorated.
He spread his palm open next to the mouth of the Pill Furnace and gently released a strand of magic power. The pills inside the furnace then floated up gently, landing snugly in the palm of his hand.
Mo Liu the teacher let out a satisfied breath and instructed, "A furnace of pills yields five pieces. The quality of the pills is indicated by the lines on them. One line represents common, two good, three excellent, four superior, and five perfect."
Qin Sisi and the others crowded around Mo Liu the teacher, looking intently at the five freshly produced pills, each indeed displaying five wavy lines.
Yun Cheng exclaid in admiration, "They’re all perfect, Teacher Mo Liu is so capable!"
Mo Liu stroked his beard with a smile and said, "This is just a first-level pill, a trifle."
Next, Mo Liu handed out a Pill Furnace to each of the nine students; similar in having three legs and a lid on top, but its body was smooth, lacking any carved patterns—which showed that it was not of the sa grade as the one Mo Liu the teacher had used.
Mo Liu the teacher also distributed five batches of herbs to each student, each batch containing five different types, exactly enough to refine a batch of Spirit Revitalizing Pills.
He spoke gravely, "Each of you has five chances. Succeeding in refining pills from one batch is considered passing, regardless of the quality. If all five batches are used up without success, you’ll need to buy herbs with Spirit Stones, five batches for one middle-grade Spirit Stone. You can leave the class only after successfully refining a batch of Spirit Revitalizing Pills; otherwise, you’ll have to stay here and continue alchemy."
Towards the end, Mo Liu the teacher’s voice sunk lower, adding an unmistakable sternness.
The nine students looked at each other, each silently grabbing their five batches of herbs, hoping to smoothly refine a batch of Spirit Revitalizing Pills.
Lastly, Mo Liu the teacher instructed the nine to spread out and sit at sufficient distance from each other to avoid mutual disturbance.
At first the students didn’t quite understand. They had never encountered alchemy before and were all uncertain. Sitting close to each other ant they could discuss, but being far apart made it inconvenient.
However, it didn’t take long for them to realize that Mo Liu the teacher’s approach was indeed sensible.
