Chapter 1407: Chapter 1406: The Pill is Ford!
Then Ai Jing’s warning to Lin Yu, though spoken softly,
And though she was already far away, Lin Dong’s senses were far from ordinary, and he clearly heard every word.
To be honest, he was infuriated!
Not because she insulted him, belittled him, but because she insulted a whole group of people.
This group, they do the dirtiest, most exhausting work for the civilization of the city, without basic security, unable to enjoy the various welfare of society, earning ager wages from backbreaking labor. They constructed the high-rise buildings of the city, swept the garbage from the streets, with their rough hands built what these so-called city dwellers call a ‘civilized city.’
Yet, they face rejection and disdain from these so-called ‘city dwellers’ like Ai Jing, even being scolded and equated to sewer vermin…
Lin Dong had nearly given in to the impulse to slap Ai Jing twice in the face, but he held back.
He could slap Ai Jing’s mouth, could even smash it, but he couldn’t smash the thinking of such people.
A martial artist can change so things. But so things, even a martial artist cannot change!
“Mister, I have found all the herbs you needed. Please check them,” the clerk said to Lin Dong with a forced smile.
Lin Dong nodded, checked everything, and found no mistakes.
So he took out his card, paid for the herbs, and then left ‘Renxin Hall’ carrying the big bundle of herbs.
After leaving Renxin Hall, he hailed another taxi and returned to the courtyard houses.
However, his mood upon returning was clearly not as cheerful as when he had left, the reason being naturally due to the unpleasant incident at the pharmacy.
They say that eting an acquaintance in a foreign place is a joyous occasion.
But because of Ai Jing, that joy from eting an old acquaintance was washed away.
Shaking his head, Lin Dong sighed and didn’t dwell on it anymore.
Instead, he carried the auxiliary dicines and entered a room.
Qiao Bing was on night shift at the Hospital tonight, so she wouldn’t be coming ho and would stay on duty there.
Once he was alone in the room, he locked the door and imdiately took the Alchemy Furnace and the main herb, ‘Thunder Fla Golden Elixir,’ out of the Dragon Ring.
As soon as the Alchemy Furnace was taken out, the temperature in the room rose several degrees.
This was the unique aspect of an Alchemy Furnace fashioned from Fire Crystal Stone; even without a fla beneath it, the material alone would heat the interior of the furnace to about fifty degrees.
Pouring water inside, without any added fla, the furnace itself could heat the water to forty or fifty degrees!
If one were to use this contraption for bathing, it would be nothing short of perfect, essentially a portable Hot Spring.
At the mont, Lin Dong took out all the necessary herbs for the Phoenix Rebirth Pill and began dividing them according to the ancient alchemist’s recipe proportions.
After a few minutes, he had completed the task.
Afterward, he placed so auxiliary dicines into the Alchemy Furnace. With a certain amount of water added, he began the condensation of Alchemist Fire.
“Whoosh!”
The Alchemist Fire took shape, and Lin Dong, controlling the fire in his hand, began heating the furnace.
The heat retention of this Alchemy Furnace was countless tis better than ordinary ones.
As soon as his Alchemist Fire started heating it, the water inside began to boil, starting to refine the auxiliary dicines. When they lded into one mass, Lin Dong, timing it perfectly, added the main herb ‘Thunder Fla Golden Elixir’!
In all these steps, Lin Dong was very ticulous.
Because there was only one ‘Thunder Fla Golden Elixir,’ if the pill exploded and failed, the materials would be ruined.
Therefore, every step he took was very cautious.
Fortunately, this was a high-grade Alchemy Furnace, not an ordinary one, so as long as Lin Dong strictly followed the steps on the ancient alchemist’s recipe, there would hardly be any mistakes.
The ancient alchemist recipe was a legacy left to him by his father, along with so of his father’s annotations. For example, on certain steps to pay attention to certain things, watch the size of the fla, note the timing of adding the various auxiliary dicines…
With these annotations, Lin Dong’s chances of making a mistake were even smaller.
Moreover, Lin Dong’s proficiency in controlling Alchemist Fire had reached a completely different level than before.
As his strength increased, so did his ntal power. Controlling Alchemist Fire was linked to his ntal power.
Refining these fourth-grade pills was an extrely tedious and complicated matter, even just refining a single one would take a lot of ti.
Normally, it took Lin Dong about two hours to refine a batch of Resuscitating Pills, but two hours would not be enough to refine a single Phoenix Rebirth Pill.
Just lting the ‘Thunder Fla Golden Elixir’ took more than two hours.
In such a state of alchemy, Lin Dong had even lost his sense of ti, refining from the afternoon straight through to the night.
At the mont, he had completed only half of the refining steps.
The most important step in alchemy is formation!
All the herbs had been added, then, while controlling the Alchemist Fire, he began the slow process of formation.
This step also took the longest amount of ti.
Lin Dong had controlled the Alchemist Fire to heat the Alchemy Furnace all night long before he began to slowly shape the dicine.
During its formation process, he couldn’t afford to slack off.
If the control of the fla was not precise at this ti, then all his previous efforts could be wasted, failing to condense the pill.
That would really make one cough up blood!
Lin Dong couldn’t afford to be careless and continued to focus intently on condensing the Alchemist Fire, refining the dicine.
When dawn began to break the next day, a rich dicinal fragrance began to emanate from within the Alchemy Furnace, and all the herbs inside had condensed into a mass.
Its shape began to slowly solidify and shrink.
From the size of a basketball, it condensed into the size of a fist, a process that took an additional two hours.
And it wasn’t over yet, Lin Dong continued to control the Alchemist Fire.
Several more hours passed, and by noon the next day, the basketball-sized mass of herbs had finally condensed into a pill the size of a marble.
An even richer dicinal fragrance wafted out from the Alchemy Furnace.
At the sa ti, the dicine was rapidly spinning, the speed so fast that even a Sect Master would struggle to see clearly.
After spinning for about fifteen minutes, it finally stopped and then settled inside the Alchemy Furnace.
“Bang!”
With the sound of the pill hitting the bottom of the Alchemy Furnace, it signified the successful refinent of the ‘Phoenix Rebirth Pill’.
Lin Dong was overjoyed and quickly took the ‘Phoenix Rebirth Pill’ out of the Alchemy Furnace.
Lin Dong was surprised to find that this pill was actually quite heavy.
Despite being only the size of a marble, it weighed two jin.
“No wonder it’s a fourth-grade pill, truly miraculous.”
Lin Dong carefully put it away.
He glanced out the window and realized it was already noon the next day.
“Today is the day of drawing lots for the Martial Arts Special Combat Team of the War departnt, I need to head over to the War departnt!”
Lin Dong’s expression changed, and he quickly left the house, setting off for the War departnt.
