"Three-Flower Grass, Dragon Snake Root, Horsetail... these are the main ingredients, with Higanbana as the auxiliary!" As the time approached noon, Li Rui couldn't help but exclaim.
It seemed that he had seen his grandfather practice this before, and logically, it shouldn't fail. Moreover, there was the Old Man in front of him, and Li Rui vaguely felt that his skills were even more impressive than those of his grandfather.
Perhaps the success rate was more than doubled compared to before.
Next came the process of controlling the fire! A proper alchemist must have exceptional skill in fire control! Otherwise, an unexpected surge of flames could disrupt the entire alchemy process!
The flames in the Dan Furnace grew larger and larger, giving Li Rui the feeling that it might explode at any moment.
Li Rui didn't know where this feeling came from, but he sensed that something was missing. He couldn't help but call out to his hand, injecting a trace of golden True Qi into it.
What followed was a sense of calm!
Alchemy was also a kind of battle, a struggle between herbs and flames! If the fire prevailed, it would explode; if the fire failed, it would become a pill. If both were balanced, perhaps this level had already surpassed Li Rui's understanding!
"It worked, it actually worked."
The Old Man murmured, looking as happy as a four or five-year-old child. He grabbed the pills that flew out of the Dan Furnace and quickly ran off, leaving Li Rui wondering where this guy was going.
He was left alone, wandering nearby, completely confused about the current situation.
As the Old Man left, Li Rui sensed that there were likely many powerful individuals here whose purpose was to guard this forbidden area. It seemed that finding the Grand Elder today would be impossible!
Li Rui couldn't help but smile wryly and shook his head as he left this place, hoping to find the Grand Elder in the future.
However, he had gained quite a bit today. Watching the Old Man's techniques, he felt that he had learned at least a little!
Li Rui hurried to his house and used a hundred units of Wind Energy to buy a slightly inferior Dan Furnace and low-quality herbs to refine pills!
He felt quite pained in his heart; he never expected that a "broken Dan Furnace" would cost half a month's worth of Wind Energy. If it were something better, wouldn't it be outrageous?
Li Rui decided to go for it, following his understanding and a recipe for a "Fuqidan" he had learned before to refine the pills.
The Fuqidan might be a low-grade, insignificant pill, something that even peak body refiners would look down upon, yet this step was precisely where all alchemists began!
Li Rui tried once but still failed. He was extremely frustrated; where had he gone wrong? He didn't even know the most basic first step.
"If you need more, just take it; I won't charge you!" Fortunately, these insignificant herbs were untouched, and he could grab hundreds with just ten units of Wind Energy, as the overseer there was straightforward.
"Ugh! Why is it another failure? I clearly prepared everything very well, yet the heavens won't let me refine pills!" Li Rui murmured.
It was already late, and refining pills was an extremely exhausting task. Unknowingly, Li Rui fell asleep next to his Dan Furnace, forgetting to close his door!
"Hey! Isn't that Li Rui? He's actually practicing alchemy."
Li Rui blinked slightly; was it already noon? He didn't even know how long he had slept. In his dream, it seemed someone was giving him a message, telling him to mix up the order of the herbs, as it might yield unexpected results.
However, when Li Rui heard this voice, it was filled with supreme provocation. He had no idea what this guy wanted. There was no need for him to pay attention.
"Bang bang!" Li Rui locked his door, leaving the one who had just shouted outside to face a closed door.
"What are you all doing here? Instead of cultivating properly, you're always coming here?"
An old man brought a person bound before Li Rui. While others might not understand why the Elder did this, Li Rui certainly did.
Wasn't this the one who provoked Li Rui yesterday? Captured by the Elder, it seemed this guy's luck had run out!
The Elder seemed to notice Li Rui's movements in the room and did not interfere; instead, he closed his eyes to rest. Others were unaware of what the Elder was doing, but he himself was very clear.
In this situation, the Elder watched as Li Rui refined pills in the room. However, Li Rui's method was somewhat peculiar; the Elder had never seen anyone do it like this before.
He wanted to speak up to stop him but swallowed his words instead, only able to observe from the side.
At that moment, Li Rui gathered his energy into a point, and flames rose from the core of the pill furnace. Fortunately, no one else saw it; the flames were ignited by him and not emitted from himself.
The only thing he could do was control the flames at the core; everything else had to be done by himself.
The Elder watched and wanted to laugh but couldn't; this must be a condition that everyone entering the pill refining field had to experience!
It was unclear how much time passed when Li Rui suddenly opened his eyes. The explosive sounds had ceased, and a faint fragrance of pills spread out, leaving the Elder puzzled.
Logically speaking, Li Rui was refining a first-grade pill, while a faint fragrance should at least belong to a third-grade pill. What was going on?
Unable to contain his surprise, the Elder disregarded the bound person and pushed open Li Rui's door.
"Elder, you..."
The Elder completely ignored Li Rui's words and picked up the pill he had refined, examining it in his hands—smelling it and looking at it. It was indeed somewhat amusing.
"You just did something I have already seen. I'm quite interested in your unique alchemy! The fact that you can produce pills is even more remarkable. A first-grade pill can emit Danxiang, which shows its uniqueness and can be classified as a top-tier first-grade pill! Moreover, your technique doesn't seem that practiced; it looks like you're just starting out. Not bad! Not bad!"
"Just luck!" The Grand Elder's flattery made Li Rui smile lightly.
"Come with me!"
"Grand Elder, what is this..." Li Rui nodded, left the house, and suddenly saw a person tied up on the ground, unable to help but ask.
"By the way, we haven't dealt with this guy yet. Hurry up and apologize to him; otherwise, you won't be allowed to step into the alchemy room again."
"Junior Brother Li, please let me go! I was misled by slander at that time; I absolutely won't dare to do it again. I swear!"
Li Rui really didn't know what to do in this situation. Would there even be a future? The Grand Elder's actions seemed to be giving him a way out, and since the Grand Elder wanted to teach Li Rui alchemy, why not "help someone achieve their goals"?
Li Rui repeatedly waved his hand, indicating that they should let this matter go and that it shouldn't happen again in the future.
