Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 17 Victory is in sight
As Wei Chengzong said "start", Ning Fa immediately got into the state.

His expression became extremely focused, as if he had returned to the state of refining medicine day and night at home. The only things in his eyes were the alchemy furnace and spiritual materials, and all other external things were forgotten.

Ning Shaohong looked at Ning Fa with some surprise, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. For the first time, she had some confidence that Ning Fa could pass this test.

However, Wei Chengzong on the side curled his lips. He didn't think Ning Fa had a chance to pass the test at all.

After all, he was very familiar with Ning Fa's alchemy level. According to his estimation, if Ning Fa had four or five opportunities to make alchemy every month, he would need at least five years to have a chance of passing the assessment.

But Wei Chengzong would never have imagined that Ning Fa had such a miraculous thing as the mysterious scroll. Ning Fa had already opened the furnace hundreds of times in nearly a month.

Ning Ruiming was still angry and looked at Ning Fa with disdain, obviously waiting for Ning Fa to make a fool of himself in public again.

Liu Qinghui looked at Ning Fa quietly, with an unexplainable emotion in her beautiful eyes. For some reason, she felt that Ning Fa might pass the test this time.

The last time she saw Ning Fa on Jinchang Island, she felt that Ning Fa seemed a little different, so she told Ning Ruiming that maybe a miracle would happen.

Today, after learning that Ning Fa would come for the assessment again, I came to watch it in person for some unknown reason.

As Ning Fa began to extract the spiritual herbs into spiritual liquid, the expressions of the three alchemists Wei Chengzong, Ning Ruiming and Liu Qinghui all changed.

Ning Fa's operation was as smooth as flowing water, without any unnecessary movements. It was fast, accurate and ruthless. It looked very pleasing to the eye, without a trace of clutter.

Wei Chengzong and the other two couldn't help but ask themselves whether they could achieve this level when extracting the spiritual liquid, and they soon gave a negative answer in their hearts.

This does not mean that Ning Fa's level of extracting spiritual liquid has surpassed the three of them, but it can definitely be said that Ning Fa's level of extracting spiritual herbs for Zengyuan Dan is higher than the three of them.

The disdainful smile on Ning Ruiming's lips disappeared, and his expression began to become gloomy.

Soon, Ningfa extracted all the seven spiritual herbs into spiritual liquid.

Wei Chengzong narrowed his eyes, because he realized that the time Ning Fa took to complete this step was nearly sixty breaths less than normal.

Moreover, judging from the color, purity and quality of these spiritual liquids, the degree of extraction is also extremely good. This also made him feel for the first time that Ning Fa might have a chance to pass the test today.

There seemed to be a flash of light in Liu Qinghui's eyes, and she watched Ning Fa's alchemy more attentively.

Ningfa has now started the next stage of elixir cultivation.

This process is very demanding on the order and time interval of adding various spiritual liquids into the alchemy furnace, as well as the magical control of the alchemy furnace, so that the spiritual liquids of various spiritual medicines can be smoothly integrated.

Ning Fa was not at all flustered. His movements were orderly and spells of different colors came out from his hands. This was the confidence that came from a lot of practice.

But as this step continued, Ningfa's brows furrowed slightly.

Because he felt that the feedback given by this white alchemy furnace was somewhat different from that of his own alchemy furnace.

It’s not that the quality of this alchemy furnace is bad, but it’s like someone who is used to driving one car suddenly feels a little uncomfortable driving another car.

Fortunately, Ning Fa was already very skilled in refining Zeng Yuan Dan, and he was finally able to control it forcibly, but his movements were inevitably somewhat uncoordinated.

The pure and flawless feeling when extracting the spiritual liquid before disappeared, and there was a sense of disorder.

Seeing this, Wei Chengzong and Ning Ruiming breathed a sigh of relief. This was the normal performance of a low-level alchemist. Ning Fa's performance in extracting the spiritual liquid just now really scared them. Ning Fa successfully completed the stage of cultivating the elixir and started the next stage of forming the elixir, which was also the most important stage.

After the pill is formed, it is the final stage of opening the furnace.

As Ning Fa cast the last yellow spell at the alchemy furnace, he shouted, "Rise!"

The alchemy furnace flew out automatically, and a ball of hazy light emanated from the furnace, and at the same time a burst of fragrance came to the nose.

Wei Chengzong looked at Ning Fa with some surprise. Based on his experience, there must be some successful pills in this furnace, but he didn't know how many there were.

And judging from the atmosphere when the furnace was opened, the quality of this elixir will surely not be bad.

Ning Fa had come for the test more than ten times before, but only two or three times had he managed to refine a genuine pill in the last furnace, and the quality was average, just barely reaching the level of a genuine pill.

Ning Shaohong and Ning Xiuying beside her were both staring at the alchemy furnace. Even though they didn't know how to make elixirs, they vaguely guessed that Ning Fa's alchemy should be successful this time.

Ning Ruiming stared at the alchemy furnace intently. He naturally saw that Ning Fa had definitely made a genuine pill this time. He prayed madly in his heart that there would be only one genuine pill.

Liu Qinghui glanced at Ning Fa without leaving any trace, and the premonition in her heart became even stronger.

Ning Fa had a blank expression on his face, but he felt a little annoyed in his heart.

Although he didn't see the situation inside the furnace, he knew from his experience that the result of this alchemy was definitely not up to his true level.

At this time, Wei Chengzong took a few steps forward to the alchemy furnace. He first lowered his head to look at the alchemy furnace, then stroked his beard and nodded.

Then he waved his hand, and a ball of light flew in front of him, containing five finger-sized milky white pills.

The two pills are round and full, with a lustrous color, without a single crack, and the surface of the pills has a faint luster.

The other three pills were irregular circles, and had more or less cracks on their surfaces, obviously they were waste pills.

"Two genuine pills, three useless pills."

Wei Chengzong read it to everyone, and then said to Ningfa with a smile: "Ningfa, you did a good job. If you can maintain this level in the next two furnaces, you will pass the assessment today."

Everyone had spiritual consciousness in their bodies, so they naturally confirmed the results of this alchemy.

Ning Shaohong glanced at Ning Fa, and the smile in her beautiful eyes became even more intense.

Ning Ruiming's eyes were gloomy, and the armrests of the wooden chair were almost deformed from being pinched by him.

Then Ning Fa rested for a quarter of an hour and started refining the elixir for the second time.

This time, the Dan Ning method took less time than the first time, and as a result, three genuine pills and three useless pills were produced.

In other words, he had refined a total of five genuine pills in the two furnaces, and as long as he could refine one more genuine pill in the third furnace, he would be able to pass the test.
