Krune then started with his extraction process. Because there was more than a single herb, he had to divide his ti between them. Of course, his extraction was still a lot better than anyone in this competition. Krune took almost two hours to finish it. After that, he went through his mories about the content available for Golden Stars Pills.
'Hum... So the main issue here is how to use the Law that you understood to force a synergy. There are obviously better Laws for certain types of pills, but generally, almost any Law can be used to make pills. For alchemy, Laws involving Fire, Wood, and Water are the best-suited ones. Since I comprehend the Burning Law, that should help a lot.'
Krune was a little lost at how exactly he should apply the Burning Law to his pill concoction. But then he rembered that Kaio Tirenia used it to eliminate the impurities of the dicinal Liquid.
'That's right, let's try to use the Burning Law for impurities cleaning. Considering my actual control over the Spiritual and Elental Source Energy, I shouldn't have too big of a problem adding it to the mix... or so I hope.'
Krune took a look at the dicinal Liquid in his cauldron, and his eyes beca sharp.
'Let's give it a try. In case I fail to make this pill, I should still have enough ti to make a Silver Stars Level one. I am, after all, trying to jump four Stars at once.'
Krune activated his Spiritual Fire and started to clean the impurities in his dicinal Liquid. As soon as he started, he also brought forward his understanding of the Burning Law.
'Impurities, only the impurities. I can't overdo it!'
It turns out that adding the Burning Laws to his Spiritual Fire had made the Flas quite fierce. Still, he could control them as long as he did it slowly.
Beds of sweat soon started to appear on Krune's face, but he didn't notice it at all. His entire focus was on the dicinal Liquid and the Impurities.
'Impressive, the Spiritual Fire fused with my Burning Law is reducing the impurities to nothing! If just I had greater control, I could do it a lot better and faster. Well, I'm still at the Sixth Stage of the Core Formation Realm, and this is also my first ti doing it, so it can't be helped.'
On the stage, Palo stopped for a second to see how Krune was doing. But he soon noticed what was happening and sighed.
'He's being too hasty. I thought he had misspoken when he said he would try to make a Golden Stars Level Pill. But it seems like he wasn't. Still, it is too early for Krune to do that. The Burning Law won't just Burn the impurities. It will burn grand part of the dicinal Properties too. You need a long ti of practice to even think about trying such a thing.'
Palo then resud his watch over the other alchemists.
Kaio Tirenia was in the middle of concoction when suddenly, he felt the Law that he is so used to use nearby. When he turned his head to the side, he felt like he was hallucinating. He then looked at the dicinal Liquid in his cauldron and confird that he could let it be for a minute. He then entered his own World of Laws and looked at Krune's direction.
"Impossible!"
His voice was quite loud, so everyone watching him Live or through the internet noticed his change. Soon, they found out that the one beside him was 'Jolk,' so imdiately, Jolk's viewers exploded once more.
Still, the majority couldn't understand what made Kaio so impressed. Jolk had indeed started to concoct his pill after so long. But was there a need to be surprised by that?
Of course, there were those who imdiately understood what was happening and why Kaio Tirenia acted that way.
"Doesn't the information says that he was supposed to be a Six Silver Stars Alchemist? How co he is using Laws, then?"
"Check the information about this Jolk guy, it is obvious that the Riria Solar System is hiding his information."
"That's not quite right, did the Riria Solar System Alchemist Headquarters lie in the information available. It says that this Jolk was supposed to be at the Sixth Stage Core Formation Realm. Still, just by seeing how his flas are acting, I can totally tell that he is using a Fire Related Law. Is it the explosion Law? No... maybe Annihilation? No, that's probably Burning. I can't confirm it through this video, though."
"Why are you calling at this ti? What? A Junior Alchemist Competition? I don't have the leisure to wa... Okay, I will take a look."
Kaio noticed that he had lost his focus and imdiately shook his head.
'Ignore him, ignore him. You still have one more pill to finish, Kaio Tirenia. Focus on your job, not his.'
Around thirty minutes later, Palo took another look at Krune. He was totally expecting that Krune would have started everything again after the failure. But to his surprise, not only didn't Krune fail, he seed to be very close to success.
'Unbelievable.'
On Krune's side, he was feeling tired already. It was his first ti using Laws actively. Although Krune was getting a lot of experience during it, it doesn't change that controlling his Flas fused with the Burning Law is quite a stretch.
'Just a little more, and I will be done with it. Almost there!'
Finally, Krune completed the impurities cleaning process. Of course, since it was his first ti doing it, his dicinal liquid was still affected sowhat. Fortunately, it was not enough to be considered a failure.
'I definitely won't have ti to make another one, so even though I lost so of the dicinal properties, I have to do with this. Too bad, though. Golden Star Level is definitely out of the question now.'
That was true. The impurities cleaning didn't completely destroy the dicinal liquid. Still, there was so damage to it. But there was a good thing out of it as well.
'At least, this dicinal liquid turned out to be of a much higher quality than what I'm used to making. I should be able to concoct a pill of a higher level than my actual one. As for keep using the Burning Law in the rest of the concoction...'
Krune looked at the dicinal liquid in his cauldron and then at himself and sighed.
'I'm not at this level yet. I was barely able to finish the previous step, and I'm sure I will fail if I keep using it in my actual condition. I've never thought that using Laws would be this hard.'
It's good that Krune is only thinking about it. If he told the Alchemists around him that he just finished comprehending the Burning Law and didn't fail using it for the first ti, no one knows if he would leave this place alive.
Krune then proceeded to finish the concoction the sa way he always did. But thanks to the difference that the Burning Law made to the cleaning process, Krune felt like it was extrely easy to put the elents in synch.
'Wow, I've never felt concoction to be this easy before. How can I put it? Sothing that was hard had suddenly beco soft. Wait, why does this sentence make feel odd? Oh, whatever. To put the elents in synch, I had to use a lot of 'force,' but now, even without trying much, they follow my every thought.'
Palo noticed that Krune stopped using the Burning Law and finally left a sigh of relief.
'At least, he couldn't do more than complete the impurities cleaning using his Law. If he had finished the entire concoction using it, I wonder if I could ever show my face in public again.'
So of the high-level alchemists watching 'Jolk's' concoction Live and through the internet noticed that his Spiritual Fla ca back to normal. They, too, understood that 'Jolk' had reached his limit. Of course, it didn't make any less impressive.
"He could only do the cleaning process using Laws, but can soone tell how long it has been since he learned how to use it?"
"No idea, but in the Second Phase, he definitely didn't use it. I watched yesterday's video, and his fla was normal."
"Hey, you two, it couldn't be that he learned how to use a Law since yesterday, right?"
"Hahahaha! The guy above is reading too many novels. There is no way that he had been using his Law for only a day."
"What I'm more concerned about is whether it is true that he is at the Sixth Stage of the Core Formation Realm or not. Because if he is, what he has done will put him at the top 100 alchemists under the age of 35 in the entire galaxy!"
"Hey, everyone. I'm watching the competition live here in the Riria Solar System. I just checked this Jolk guy's cultivation with my Divine Sense, and he is really at the Sixth Stage of the Core Formation Realm! If you think that I'm lying about being here, just check the link below. I'm using my communicator to transmit the competition from my point of view on my channel."
Krune, or better, Jolk, was becoming more and more famous. Even Feifei's group noticed it while watching from a distance. Ruik looked at the live transmission in his communicator and told Feifei.
"Well, that's quite a famous Fiance that you have there."
Feifei, of course, was all smiles. After all, she loved those situations. She was even looking forward to seeing Krune's face when she tells him everything that is happening outside.
Back at Krune's side, he was close to finishing his concoction.
'Alright, I just need to start the pill formation now. I believe that it should be enough to beco an Eight Silver Stars pill at the very least.'
But just as Krune was about to do that, he stopped.
Feifei and Ruik knew Krune quite well, and since they were watching him from very close, they imdiately understood what that ant when they looked at his face.
Ruik then let out a loud laugh and comnted.
"I know that expression way too well!"
Feifei quickly nodded and laughed too.
"That is definitely the face he does when a crazy idea pops up in his mind."
Tiane didn't know what those two were talking about, but she understood that sothing was about to happen.
