Upon hearing Zhu Fei’s response, Tianxing Venerable, whose face had always been composed, finally showed a slight smile for the first ti.
That smile was like a thawing glacier and blossoming spring flowers, breathtakingly beautiful.
She then nodded slightly to Zhu Fei and with a wave of her hand, a storage ring astonishingly landed in Zhu Fei’s palm.
"Master Zhu, the materials you need for alchemy are inside this ring. From now on, I entrust everything to you, Master Zhu."
After a slight pause, Tianxing Venerable continued, "In the following ti, I will personally co here to act as your protector. Master Zhu, you can refine the pills with peace of mind."
As soon as Tianxing Venerable finished speaking, her phantom avatar began to burn, and by the ti this phantom completely vanished, a stunningly beautiful woman in white, with white eyebrows and white hair, had already appeared next to Zhu Fei!
Zhu Fei looked at the true form of Tianxing Venerable, and his face showed no significant reaction. After nodding slightly to her, he imdiately turned to Ouyang Ming beside him.
"Brother Ouyang, I might need to use your place next, is that alright?"
"No problem, of course, there’s no problem. Feel free, Daoist Zhu Fei."
Ouyang Ming smiled and shook his head, then personally led Zhu Fei and Tianxing Venerable towards the Wan Tong shop.
...
About thirty minutes later, Zhu Fei was sitting in a very quiet secret chamber.
In front of him were a High Grade Dao Artifact Alchemy Furnace and various materials needed to refine the Immortal Ascension Pill.
These had all been taken out of Tianxing Venerable’s storage ring, and even a High Grade Dao Artifact Alchemy Furnace had been prepared. It seed that Tianxing Venerable had been planning to have soone help her refine the Immortal Ascension Pill not just for a day or two.
Zhu Fei was now sitting beside the alchemy furnace, but he wasn’t in a hurry to start refining. Instead, he was deep in thought.
To be honest, Zhu Fei’s acceptance of this alchemy task was not just a spur-of-the-mont decision.
Long before, Zhu Fei had intended to resolve his past life’s heart obstacles before the arrival of the Heart Demon Tribulation.
Even though this idea seed sowhat risky, cultivation for a cultivator always involved risks proportional to the gains.
If Zhu Fei could truly eliminate this heart barrier before the Heart Demon Tribulation arrived, not only would he be able to completely sever his ties with his past life, making his ntal state achieve perfection, but it would also allow him to break through his cultivation barrier and easily advance to the Late Tribulation Stage.
However, gathering the materials to refine the Immortal Ascension Pill was incredibly difficult.
Zhu Fei had thought of many thods, but had never managed to gather all the necessary materials.
Thus, the idea of resolving his past life’s heart obstacles before the arrival of the Heart Demon Tribulation had to be temporarily abandoned.
However, now Tianxing Venerable had given him this opportunity, and of course, Zhu Fei would not miss it.
At this mont, as Zhu Fei sat beside the alchemy furnace and carefully reviewed all the conditions related to refining the Immortal Ascension Pill, a pale blue Divine Blue Netherworld Fire finally appeared in his hands.
Following this, a Ninth Grade Spiritual dicine called Sea Blue Flower was astonishingly thrown by Zhu Fei into the High Grade Dao Artifact Alchemy Furnace.
Refining the Immortal Ascension Pill was different from other pills, as each type of Spiritual dicine had to be refined separately, absolutely without any mixing.
For this, even with Zhu Fei’s present Alchemy Cultivation, he dared not deviate in the slightest.
As the Sea Blue Flower tumbled in the flas, after several hours, this whole Sea Blue Flower finally turned into several radiant droplets, shimring like sapphires, and Zhu Fei moved them into a hidden compartnt within the alchemy furnace.
This was a special function of the High Grade Dao Artifact Alchemy Furnace. If it were any other Dao Artifact Alchemy Furnace, it would be doubtful whether it could withstand the ravaging of the Skyfire, let alone transfer the refined dicine Liquid into a hidden compartnt for nurturing.
In the following ti, Zhu Fei thodically placed each precious Spiritual dicine into the alchemy furnace, and under the refining of the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire, they transford into either liquid, solid, or gaseous ’essences.’
For over a month, Zhu Fei had been doing the sa thing, which was purifying Spiritual dicine.
Only when Zhu Fei completely finished this task did he pinch his spell, extracting the "essence" of the Spiritual dicine from their respective hidden compartnts, and attempted to rge them.
This was the first major challenge Zhu Fei needed to be mindful of in refining the Immortal Ascension Pill. Should any issues arise, the entire effort of making this Pill could likely fall apart.
"Whoosh whoosh—"
Nearly a thousand types of Spiritual dicine "essence" churned and rotated within the Pill Furnace, robust Qi Forces swirling around it, creating a series of piercing howls.
Zhu Fei’s eyes gradually narrowed as he stared intently at the changes within the Pill Furnace, continuously pinching the Pill formula...
Suddenly, Zhu Fei’s fingertips rapidly shot out several drops of purple liquid.
At this mont, if Long Ba or soone familiar with this purple liquid were present, they would undoubtedly be shocked.
Because the purple liquid Zhu Fei had ejected was not sothing ordinary, but the Purple Darkness Spirit Liquid, known as the Innate Spiritual Liquid!
Aside from cleansing Cultivators’ ridians and Divine Soul to enhance their innate talents, Purple Darkness Spirit Liquid was also an excellent auxiliary in various types of Alchemy.
At this mont, Zhu Fei unleashed the Purple Darkness Spirit Liquid, aiming to utilize its properties to facilitate a perfect fusion of the Spiritual dicine "essence".
And indeed, Zhu Fei was not disappointed. Once the Purple Darkness Spirit Liquid entered the Alchemy Furnace, the originally violent and repelling Spiritual dicine "essence" instantly cald down.
Subsequently, these Spiritual dicine "essences" began to rge under the effects of various Pill formulas Zhu Fei manipulated, gradually transforming into the shape of Pills.
Another month later, when twelve dazzling, glass-colored phantasms slowly appeared within the Pill Furnace, the entire furnace once again erupted into violence!
Visible on the surface of the Pill Furnace were various flashes of lightning and fire, intertwining, and a mass of ink-like black clouds gradually surged and pooled on the lid of the furnace.
Accompanying this were howls akin to demons, sending chills down one’s spine upon hearing them.
"It’s a Pill Demon!"
Zhu Fei’s pupils abruptly narrowed as his eyes fixed on the mass of black clouds, a trace of horror stirring within him.
He had never anticipated that in refining the Immortal Ascension Pill, not only would lightning and fire appear but also a Pill Demon.
The so-called Pill Demon was also a type of Pill Tribulation.
They fed on various Pill "essences" to strengthen themselves, eventually taking on human form and wreaking havoc in the world.
It could be said that Pill Demons, beings from the Pill Tribulation, were the most malevolent and the most harmful to the myriad of worlds.
Once they successfully devoured the "essence" within a Pill and escaped, catching or even killing them would be an extrely difficult task.
Hence, at tis, Alchemists would rather destroy an entire batch of Pills than allow a Pill Demon to fully materialize.
However, at this mont, Zhu Fei could not afford to do that.
Setting aside his previous promise to Tianxing Venerable, just the materials alone used in this batch of Immortal Ascension Pills, once destroyed, even Zhu Fei was uncertain when he could gather the sa materials again.
Moreover, what was more crucial was that a failure now would an facing the frenzied onslaught of the Heart Demon Tribulation next!
Thus, Zhu Fei could not afford to fail, nor could he afford to lose!
"Roar!"
Just then, another roar sounded.
Imdiately, in the next mont, "bang bang" several sounds were heard within the Alchemy Furnace, and the phantasms of several Pills, at that instant, completely shattered!
