291: Chapter 291: Refinent of the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote
After last night’s drama, Lin Yifan realized he could no longer refine his elixirs in the rented apartnt; he had to wait until the villa’s basent was completed to do so.
It had been over ten days since the fra-up case, but there had still been no progress; the Antian Group’s factory could only produce and was unable to ship out goods.
With the warehouse nearly full, An Qi was really worried.
Not being able to sell the goods would lead to only one outco, paralysis of the company.
Without cash flow, they couldn’t pay their employees, and the company would face a significant loss of talent, which would be very severe.
An Qi was now searching for funding every day, but she found that her forr business partners were all refusing to cooperate with her, which truly made her feel cold and desperate.
Human relationships change with circumstances, such stark indifference; it indeed is a cruel society.
Feeling helpless, An Qi could only hope that the police would solve the case quickly and clear her and the Antian Group’s na.
“Big pervert!
Do you think I can get through this tough ti?” An Qi asked sadly while sitting in the back seat.
“Don’t worry!
Heaven will take care of you; all wrongs will be righted one day,” Lin Yifan soothed An Qi while driving.
“Really?” With her lover’s encouragent and consolation, An Qi seed to regain so hope.
“Really, trust !” Lin Yifan responded calmly.
In the car, he couldn’t make too many affectionate gestures, or the keen-eyed Zhou Jiajia would notice.
“I believe you!” An Qi was exceptionally happy.
A few days later, Lin Yifan’s underground chamber was finally completed.
As the saying goes, money talks; with financial help, a project that was supposed to take several weeks was completed in just over ten days, significantly shortening the construction period.
That is the charm of money.
With the underground chamber ready, Lin Yifan no longer worried about his elixir refinent being discovered or disturbed.
That night, he took the herbal ingredients he had purchased and entered the basent to secretly begin refining elixirs.
This ti, he was not refining the Intestine-Piercing Pill Antidote, but the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote.
With An Qi’s Antian Group in dire straits, he couldn’t just watch it collapse, so he had to refine the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote and take it to the Ye Gui Xiang auction to be auctioned off.
Last ti, half an elixir fetched an astronomical price, and he believed the antidote he refined would definitely make a lot of money; even if the quality was lower, it could still bring in tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions.
The ingredients needed to refine the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote included several expensive herbs, but fortunately, these could be purchased from the country’s largest traditional dicine website, saving him a lot of trouble.
However, just these ingredients had cost him tens of millions.
Therefore, it was no wonder that the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote was expensive.
The underground chamber was equipped with modern equipnt: an exhaust fan, a gas stove, a water purifier, air conditioning, lights, and more—all the necessities for alchemy were present.
Everything was ready, except for the east wind.
After setting up the pill furnace, Lin Yifan began to follow the formula recorded in the Witchcraft Secret Manual to asure out the required amounts of various ingredients.
Once he had prepared a batch of ingredients, he started to pour water into the pill furnace.
These waters were ticulously filtered to be clean and almost devoid of impurities; therefore, elixirs refined from such pure water sources would be of high purity.
The higher the purity of the elixir, the more potent its dicinal effects would be, and thus its value would increase.
After adding an appropriate amount of pure water, Lin Yifan then gradually added the dicinal ingredients.
Refining the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote was not as straightforward as refining the Intestine-Piercing Poison Antidote by boiling everything in one pot; it required adding the dicinal ingredients in several stages to refine the pill, therefore, they needed to be added one by one to avoid mistakes.
As a result, the refinent ti was significantly prolonged.
After adding the first batch of dicinal ingredients, Lin Yifan covered the pill furnace and started the fire to refine the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote.
Boiling with high heat and simring with low heat, this principle was almost unchanging; unless special dicinal ingredients were involved, it would not change.
During the simring process on low heat, the patience of the alchemist was tested; although a natural gas stove could maintain a fierce heat at a constant temperature, there were several temperatures for low heat that the alchemist needed to adjust continuously; otherwise, both the quality and the value of the dicine would be greatly reduced; it could even be problematic whether the elixir could be refined at all.
The simring process of refining the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote on low heat was destined to be lengthy; because several batches of dicinal ingredients needed to be added; each ingredient had to be simred to extract its dicinal properties before adding the next one, until the final one was added.
Lin Yifan concentrated on observing the phenona produced by the pill furnace and continuously slling the fragrance.
As soon as he detected the scent of the added dicinal ingredients, he would imdiately add the next one and continue simring.
In this manner, the ti passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, four hours had passed; by then, Lin Yifan had completed the final addition of ingredients; what followed was waiting for the last dicinal ingredient to be fully simred and release its dicinal properties.
Four hours of waiting made Lin Yifan extrely impatient; because it was really boring.
Sitting in front of the pill furnace, his clothes were soaked through with sweat, constantly dripping, making it extrely grueling.
“Damn it!
Refining the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote is truly laborious.
I really wonder how those alchemists who refine for days, tens of days, or even months, manage to endure it,” he exclaid.
Lin Yifan now had so respect for the profession of an alchemist; apart from requiring great talent, it also required imnse patience.
After simring the fire for several more minutes, the refining process finally ca to an end; then, Lin Yifan added a tiny Fire Origin Crystal and unleashed his Cultivation Power to increase the temperature within the pill furnace.
“Boom!”
The next mont, the pill furnace trembled again; the energy released by the Fire Origin Crystal upon encountering heat was too powerful, almost like a bomb or an atomic bomb.
After the shock, the dicinal substances at the bottom of the furnace quickly coalesced, forming “water droplets”, and finally ford the elixir.
The added dicinal ingredients were not all essential; one of them was an auxiliary ingredient that facilitated the fusion and coagulation of the liquid-form dicinal substances, maintaining a constant shape, similar to a spherical mold.
The fusion process of the elixir released a unique scent, and the fusion process of more potent elixirs would emit bright alchemical lights and even powerful energy, truly extraordinary.
The energy of the Hundred Steps Heart-Piercing Poison Antidote was not intense; thus, it only released a fragrance.
At this mont, Lin Yifan had already slled this fragrance; now, all he had to do was wait for this fragrance to cease.
A few minutes later, the fragrance dissipated, and the elixir coalesced; then, Lin Yifan quickly withdrew his Cultivation Power; afterward, he activated the air conditioning to cool down the pill furnace.
