3219 Making the pill
“Hahahaha, that’s great that you had a wonderful time. Since I am your master, there is no need for you to thank me excessively. This is what I should do.”
Pill King burst out laughing. His discerning eyes wandered over Feng Jiu as he spoke. “Don’t waste your time now that you’re back. Go ahead and refine the Beast-Shaping Pill. There is still a three-day deadline; if you are unable to refine the Beast-Shaping Pill within three days, then…” He didn’t finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear.
“Yes, Disciple will not fail Master.” Her gaze was fixed on Pill King.
Pill King nodded. “Alright, then! I will return after three days. I hope you will not disappoint me.” He turned around with his hands behind his back and was about to leave when he heard Feng Jiu’s voice from behind him.
“Master, please wait a moment.”
Pill King stopped and looked back, asking with his white eyebrows raised. “Is there anything else?”
“Disciple does not know how long it takes to cultivate here with Master, so I would like to send my subordinates away at some point.” She looked at him.
“Take your time, don’t rush. Your subordinates are too weak. Just stay here a little longer.”
He paused. His eyes narrowed as he glanced at Feng Jiu with a grin on his face. “Besides, I sent someone to help you train them during the half-month you were away. You probably won’t be able to see them right now. Wait a little longer! If you still want them to leave first when you see them again, I will send them back myself.”
“Don’t worry about them, you’d better worry about yourself first. If the Beast-Shaping Pill is not refined in three days, hehe. ” He laughed and walked away without saying anything else.
Feng Jiu looked at the pill furnace on the side after he had left and her gaze moved. Instead of directly refining it, she prepared all of the spirit herbs required to make the Beast-Shaping Pill.
At night, she started refining the Beast-Shaping Pill. In the Daedrath Forest, she had repeatedly pondered: Which step was incorrect? Why was she unable to refine the Beast-Shaping Pill?
The seventh-grade medicinal pill was not difficult for her current strength, but it was difficult to obtain. Each type of medicinal pill was refined differently, as were the methods used by each person, especially for the seventh-grade elixir. If one step was done incorrectly, the subsequent step might also be incorrect.
And then there’s the pill furnace. How was she going to keep it under control?
That night, after numerous failures, she had learned something, so when the third day dawned and three lightning bolts struck down from the sky, she smiled.
“The seventh-grade Beast-Shaping Pill has been successfully refined.”
She stood there watching three bolts of lightning strike the pill furnace. The spirit energy to refine and temper the pills all entered the pill furnace. She was going to remove the medicinal pills from the pill furnace when Pill King arrived.
“Haha, I heard the pill lightning from afar. Pretty good!” Pill King approached slowly, followed by an elderly man.
Even though the other alchemists in Pill King’s Valley could hear the lightning bolts, they only inquired about the situation. They stopped asking questions after learning that Feng Jiu had refined medicinal pills.
She was Young Valley Master, and Pill King had personally taught her alchemy and pharmacy. It was no surprise that she could refine the seventh-grade medicinal pills given her alchemist rank. However, they had no idea what kind of medicinal pills Pill King had asked her to refine.
