Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn as a Devouring Python, Medusa is taken home.

Chapter 168, Alchemy

For an alchemist to improve their skills, the flames of alchemy are indispensable.

Especially advanced alchemists, they basically don't use ordinary flames.

They can't get the strange fire, but the beast fire is easy to obtain.

There are so many magical beasts on the continent, and many of them possess beast fire.

However, if we're talking about real flames, then it has to be the strange flames!

"call!"

Among the many beast flames, a ball of sea-blue flame suddenly rose from the medicine cauldron in front of Xiao Yan, instantly attracting everyone's flames to tilt towards it.

When the extraordinary fire emerges, all other fires submit!

Ning Su also looked over and recognized the sea-blue flame: "Sea Heart Flame... It seems he finally killed Han Feng."

That was Han Feng's Sea Heart Flame, and now it's in Xiao Yan's hands, which means Xiao Yan has already killed Han Feng.

Ning Su didn't seem to care much about this.

He didn't kill Han Feng back in the Black Corner Region because he knew that Han Feng would eventually be killed by Xiao Yan.

"It's actually a different kind of fire? This kid's luck is pretty good." On the tower, the three giants were all watching the situation on the field.

The Sea Heart Flame summoned by Xiao Yan naturally attracted their attention.

Even the three giants coveted the Strange Flame.

Unfortunately, although their Pill Tower captured the Three Thousand Burning Flames, none of the three giants were able to subdue it.

"This kid seems to be called Xiao Yan, right? He's Yao Chen's disciple," said Tian Lei Zi from the side.

"Yao Chen's disciple? Really?" Xuan Kongzi was somewhat surprised.

"It's true, he visited me and Xuan Yi before the Pill Gathering officially started, but you weren't there at the time, so you didn't know," Tian Lei Zi said.

"Is Yao Chen still alive? Back then, he was being hunted down by the Soul Hall, and he refused to join the Pill Tower. There has been no news of him for so many years. I thought he had unfortunately fallen into the hands of the Soul Hall," Xuan Kongzi said.

"Yao Chen did go through a lot back then, but we don't know the specifics."

"Where is Yao Chen now?"

"I heard from Xiao Yan that Yao Chen has already returned to the Starfall Pavilion."

Xuan Kongzi nodded, then turned to look at Xuan Yi, who had remained silent: "Now that Yao Chen is back, why don't you go to the Starfall Pavilion to see him?"

"What's so interesting about that guy? Besides, this is the Pill Gathering. You two should stop talking about irrelevant things and focus on the important matter at hand." Xuan Yi's expression was calm, but Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi both noticed the subtle change in her tone.

Xuan Yi was the one among them who cared about Yao Chen the most.

"Time waits for no one, so cherish what you have while you can," Xuan Kongzi sighed, only to be met with a glare from Xuan Yi.

Then, another flame appeared on the field, drawing their attention.

"That's also a different kind of flame?!"

……

call!

Ning Su summoned the Azure Chaos Flame, which instantly absorbed the flames from everyone around her.

Even Xiao Yan's Sea Heart Flame was affected to some extent.

"Another strange fire has appeared?!"

"Heavens! As expected of the Pill Gathering, we can actually see two kinds of strange flames!"

"Moreover, this person's strange fire seems to be even more powerful than that person's Sea Heart Flame."

"But I don't remember there being any three-colored strange flames on the Strange Flame Ranking, right? Could it be a new strange flame?"

Those present were among the top alchemists on the continent, and naturally had some understanding of different flames.

However, none of them could recognize what kind of flame Ning Su's Azure Chaos Flame was.

Xiao Yan, however, looked at the flames in front of Ning Su with a heavy expression.

"I sensed the aura of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Fallen Heart Flame within his flames, as well as a third kind of strange fire... Has this guy managed to perfectly fuse three different strange fires together?"

As Ning Su's old rival who came to Zhongzhou with her from the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Yan naturally knew how Ning Su obtained her strange fire.

He originally had a chance to obtain both the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Fallen Heart Flame, but in the end, they both fell into Ning Su's hands.

"However, relying solely on strange fire won't determine a winner. This time, I must defeat him!"

Xiao Yan was not discouraged by Ning Su's strange fire; on the contrary, it inspired him to fight even harder.

With the fire-fighting segment over, it's time for the actual alchemy.

Everyone had already decided what kind of elixir they wanted to refine, and then they began to refine the elixir step by step.

Although such a grand scene made them somewhat nervous.

But being seasoned alchemists, once they started concocting medicine, everyone got into the zone and gave it their all!

Ning Su has also begun to prepare the medicine.

To win the Pill Competition, ordinary pills are not enough; you must use Rank 8 pills.

Moreover, even ordinary grade eight elixirs won't work.

The latest novel is first published here!

Therefore, Ning Su decided to refine the "Dou Zun Pill," which is extremely rare even among eighth-grade pills!

The Dou Zun Pill can directly increase the cultivation level of a Dou Zun expert by one star after consumption.

This elixir is the most amazing of all elixirs.

It directly boosts cultivation level, making it more precious than any other elixir.

A pill that can directly raise a Dou Zun's cultivation by one star would undoubtedly cause a sensation.

This pill also presents a considerable challenge for Ning Su, who has no absolute certainty of success.

He just occasionally wanted to challenge himself, so that if he failed, he would still have a chance to refine a second one.

……

On the stage, everyone was silently refining medicine, flames rising and the aroma of medicine filling the air.

The crowd watched quietly, without uttering a sound.

This was also a rare feast for them.

Those novice alchemists all hoped to gain some inspiration from the seniors on the observation platform and improve their alchemy skills.

You should know that normally there aren't so many sixth- or seventh-grade alchemists refining medicine in front of them.

Being able to watch these masters concoct medicines is a pleasure in itself.

As time went on, a series of issues arose.

Some people operate the equipment improperly, which can easily cause the furnace to explode, ruining all previous efforts and forcing them to start refining the medicine again.

After Ning Su persisted for three days, a roar came from the medicine cauldron.

He exploded in the oven too!

"The Dou Zun Pill is indeed quite difficult to make, but I've already mastered the trick. Let's continue." He wasn't in a hurry.

An alchemist who has never experienced failure is not a complete alchemist.

Moreover, Ning Su has a huge advantage over other alchemists—he can refine medicine very quickly.

It's several times faster than an ordinary alchemist.

Therefore, he has several chances to make mistakes, and he is not flustered at all even if he fails two or three times.

This is an advantage that other alchemists do not have at all.

Fortunately, he bought a lot of medicinal herbs before the alchemy gathering, and also took a large number of medicinal herbs from the Wanyao Mountain Range, which was more than enough to support him to start refining medicine again.

Even if all the Dou Zun pills fail to be refined, he still has materials to refine other Rank 8 pills.

There's still plenty of time.

Ning quickly cleaned up the residue and then started refining the medicine again.
