Chapter 97: Occult Function
The Fire Control skill within the Divine Refining Arcane Technique was completely different from the one given to him by the Great Elder. While controlling the fire, he needed to constantly change the direction of the fire control skill and the control of the fire as well.
Within a short period of time, Duan Chuchen's forehead was dripping with sweat. According to the method on the Divine Refining Arcane Technique, Duan Chuchen found that refining Medicine Pill was much more difficult.
Time continued to pass, and after an hour, Duan Chuchen still hadn't completed the step of controlling the fire. At this moment, he felt that he had consumed a lot of his soul consciousness, and if it was according to the usual method of concocting pills, then he definitely wouldn't consume so much soul consciousness. He would be able to complete this step immediately, but now, he had consumed a portion of his soul consciousness.
At this moment, Duan Chuchen could feel that his condition was not very good. Suddenly, the flame started to tremble. Duan Chuchen had already felt it in his heart. Suddenly, an explosion sounded.
"Bam!" Immediately, a strong spirit fire burnt Duan Chuchen's entire face black. Duan Chuchen was helpless; he did not expect the Divine Refining Arcane Technique's method of refining pills to be so difficult, so he immediately began to quickly recover his condition, preparing for the next time he would refine pills.
He already knew that the "Divine Refining Arcane Technique" was not simple, so he had to be careful during the next round of alchemy. The last time he failed, he came here because he could refine 50 Blood Qi Pills. Although some of the herbs weren't his, Duan Chuchen still felt his heart ache after seeing how much it had been wasted.
Duan Chuchen made some preparations and recovered to his peak state. Soon, he began refining the Medicine Pill. This time, he carefully controlled the spirit fire and the furnace immediately turned red.
One by one, the herbs were added into the furnace by Duan Chuchen. Before long, Duan Chuchen began to control the spiritual fire. This time, every change in his attack was very careful.
Slowly, droplets of sweat appeared on Duan Chuchen's forehead. The sweat was on his back. After the previous failure, Duan Chuchen was very careful with every step and did not dare to be careless. Finally, an hour had passed, and the scent of Medicine Pill came out. Duan Chuchen quickly stopped practicing the medicinal ingredients and prepared to draw the array.
In "Divine Refining Arcane Technique", an inscription formation was different from a normal inscription formation. There were two different formations that could be added together and drawn. After understanding this step, Duan Chuchen began to draw.
Duan Chuchen took a deep breath before starting to draw the formation. A stream of spiritual power wrapped around his finger as the formation began to be drawn.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!" Rays of light lit up and within a short period of time, a Human Stage Low Rank array was completely drawn. Duan Chuchen started to superimpose a second Human Stage Low Rank array.
The first formation was a water type array, while the second formation was a fire type array. Water and fire originally could not fuse together, but in terms of the "Divine Refining Arcane Technique", it could ingeniously fuse together and achieve a very good effect. According to the explanation of the "Divine Refining Arcane Technique", it could greatly improve the quality of alchemy.
The second array started to be drawn. Duan Chuchen felt that the second array and the first one seemed incompatible, and it actually took him a full hour of time to draw it before Duan Chuchen's inscription finally came to an end. At this moment, Duan Chuchen was very careful with every step and did not dare to neglect it in the slightest, because if he was careless, he would fail.
When Duan Chuchen was about to complete the last step, he suddenly felt that his spiritual energy was insufficient. Duan Chuchen was shocked. Insufficient spiritual energy when inscribing formations was a taboo.
"Bam!" Instantly, the two formations exploded and the Medicine Pill within the cauldron disappeared, turning into useless medicine. Duan Chuchen's eyes once again revealed a crying expression.
"There's a failure …" Duan Chuchen muttered to himself, but at the same time, a trace of excitement appeared in his heart. He did not expect that the refinement method of the "Divine Refining Arcane Technique" would be so difficult.
However, this also meant a problem. The lower the success rate of refining, the stronger the Medicine Pill that he had refined would be. It was possible that after success, there would be benefits that he did not intend to obtain.
Duan Chuchen quickly circulated the "Buried God Sword Soul" within his body. The spirit energy between heaven and earth quickly gathered towards him. Not long later, Duan Chuchen felt his spirit energy quickly recovering.
This time, Duan Chuchen did not dare to waste any herbs, he only added in the herbs that could be used to refine ten Blood Qi Pills. When the furnace was burning red, Duan Chuchen started putting in the herbs and started training the Medicine Pill. This time, Duan Chuchen was much more relaxed.
After the first and second failure, Duan Chuchen had improved a lot. In just a short time, he had completed the second round. The herbs were now in the shape of Medicine Pill.
At this moment, the Medicine Pill was first released from the furnace and Duan Chuchen was prepared to start drawing the array. This time, in order to prevent his spiritual energy from running out, Duan Chuchen started to operate the Buried God Sword Soul himself. While absorbing the spiritual energy from between heaven and earth, he started to draw the array.
Duan Chuchen took a deep breath and began to draw the array. Immediately, Duan Chuchen began to draw the array as if it were a flowing water, appearing extremely fast.
The first formation was completed after a short while. At this moment, the spiritual energy within his body was still at its peak state. He still needed to rub and rub the spiritual energy needed to inscribe the second formation. At this moment, Duan Chuchen's spirit had reached the peak, because the second formation was the hardest part of the "Divine Refining Arcane Technique".
Duan Chuchen began to quickly draw the array. Not long after, a formation appeared on top of the first one. The two formations collided with each other and unexpectedly had an unstable state.
Duan Chuchen was able to quickly stabilize the two formations. Not long later, the two formations were completely fused together and lit up. Finally, it completed the inscription formation.
The spiritual fire was instantly absorbed into Duan Chuchen's body. The smell of the Medicine Pill pervaded the entire wooden house. Duan Chuchen already had a little bit of expectation in his heart as he took out the Medicine Pill from the cauldron.
Ten Medicine Pill appeared in Duan Chuchen's palm. Out of ten, eight of them were trash pills, but Duan Chuchen was not disappointed. Although it only had a 20% success rate, he was already very satisfied. This was because at this moment, the two Medicine Pill that had succeeded actually began to emit a strong medicinal fragrance that emitted a dazzling golden light.
Duan Chuchen swallowed a Medicine Pill and immediately felt a powerful medicinal effect rush into his body. In an instant, he felt refreshed.
The smell of the Medicine Pill did not belong to a early stage human realm Medicine Pill. It was clearly comparable to a human realm intermediate stage Medicine Pill, and it was even better than those human realm intermediate stage Medicine Pill. However, Duan Chuchen finally understood why the Divine Refining Arcane Technique was so highly regarded by Liu Tie and Gaang Hu.
Duan Chuchen began to train his Medicine Pill again and again. After five days, Duan Chuchen was able to increase the success rate of refining the Medicine Pill with the "Divine Refining Arcane Technique" to thirty percent.
At this moment, Duan Chuchen started to try to use ordinary methods to refine Medicine Pill. Unexpectedly, he found that the Medicine Pill he refined became very easy. This time, the Medicine Pill that he had come to refine was Zeng Lingwan, who had added the weight of a hundred Medicine Pill into the mix. He felt that refining the Medicine Pill was extremely easy.
Not long later, the scent of Medicine Pill wafted out. Duan Chuchen began to draw the array, and not long after, one array was completely drawn out. Duan Chuchen quickly put away his spirit fire.
Duan Chuchen took out the Medicine Pill, and a hundred Spirit-Strengthening Pills appeared in Duan Chuchen's eyes. Among them, 90 of the Zeng Spirit Pills were successful Medicine Pill, and regardless of color or quality, they were all top quality low level human-step Medicine Pill.
Duan Chuchen threw all of the herbs into the cauldron and started practicing. Not long later, the demonic pill released a medicinal fragrance, and a ton of it was distributed directly to the Human Stage Mid Rank.
Duan Chuchen could be drawn using both arrays, let alone a Human Stage Mid Rank array. In just a short period of time, a Human Stage Mid Rank array was already enough to draw the Earth Fire Array.
Suddenly, a huge flame rose up from the furnace and was then combined together. Duan Chuchen completed the last step and the short Duan Chuchen quickly retracted the spiritual flame.
When the Medicine Pill appeared in the hungry furnace, Duan Chuchen took it out and started to carefully examine it. Out of ten Medicine Pill, six of them were trash pills.
Duan Chuchen's eyes revealed a hint of joy. Since the success rate of a Human Stage Mid Rank Medicine Pill had reached 40%, that meant that he was already a Mid Rank Middle Phase alchemist. An early stage middle stage alchemist was already considered an entry level alchemist within the Heavenly Refining Sect.
