Chapter 834: Chapter 266: With Alchemy Like This, Even an Ascension Expert Can’t Endure, Right? (Part 2)
This Immortal Tribulation... The ancient alchemists left behind the great power of the Alchemy Dao, which can only be touched when one reaches a certain level in this field...
Mo Xilan has immersed herself in the Alchemy Dao for a thousand years, but no one knows how high her attainment in this area truly is.
Unexpectedly, she has reached such a level...
"Anyway, it’s this powerful." Mo Xilan giggled, "I can refine it on my own, but it would take too long... With Brother Dongfang, we should be able to refine it quickly, one or two months at most."
"What about the materials?"
"Apart from the missing medicine, I’ve prepared everything else over a millennium."
"I originally planned to refine it ahead of time." Mo Xilan said, "When Brother Dongfang returns, if your strength is low, I’ll give you this elixir, allowing you to obtain the great power of the ancient alchemist’s Alchemy Dao, and you’ll be able to ascend to immortality immediately, comparable to me."
"..."
Good heavens...
"Will it still work if I take it now?"
"I don’t know..." Mo Xilan pondered, "The cultivation technique within you is too miscellaneous. This elixir can turn ordinary people and plants into immortals because they are blank living beings and can easily fuse with that Alchemy Dao power. However, for cultivators who have already stepped into cultivation, it may cause conflict, leading to other medicinal effects. You might not be able to become an immortal."
Anyway, Wang Mu feels this elixir is somewhat against the heavens.
"Naturally, we start now."
Once said, Mo Xilan waved her hand, revealing the Four Symbols Elixir Furnace, slowly rotating.
"What do I need to do? It’s my first time refining such a powerful elixir, and I don’t know anything." Wang Mu said.
"Brother Dongfang, it’s not your first time refining such a powerful elixir. This elixir is similar to Immortal Sorrow, so the method is naturally similar, only differing in details. I’ll tell you slowly..." Mo Xilan’s eyes were watery.
Spending most of the day on the cultivation technique, Mo Xilan explained the refining process of this elixir to Wang Mu.
This elixir indeed needs at least two months to be refined.
Of course, with Mo Xilan as the main alchemist, she handles most of the operations.
Wang Mu only takes care of some details and crucial directions...
After the explanation, the alchemy officially began...
——
Wang Mu hadn’t refined any elixirs for a long time, feeling a bit rusty, finding his control over several divine flames slightly awkward.
But it’s alright.
His level might not match Mo Xilan’s, but he just needs to adjust for a while.
"For the first step, I only need... to fuse several divine flames with Mo Xilan’s Divine Heart Flame..."
It sounds easy.
In reality, it’s still hard.
After all, Mo Xilan’s Divine Heart Flame is her innate divine flame, cultivated for countless years, naturally possessing extremely strong spiritual energy.
Only by fusing different divine flames can stronger flame power be created, capable of melting countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
This process is very challenging.
Wang Mu contemplated for a long time; divine flames have spirits, and to fuse, one needs to connect with them slowly.
With this thought, Wang Mu immersed his mind, using his hands as vessels, reaching into the Divine Heart Flame, feeling the warmth of the divine flames, each inch of burning golden flame like small, lively beings.
The moment his hands touched, the golden flame began to shiver in resistance.
Wang Mu smiled slightly. After all, he also possessed the Divine Heart Flame, being somewhat of a co-owner. Although initially resistant, soon his palms slowly touched and communicated with it, causing the Divine Heart Flame to gradually ignite.
"Luckily, I also cultivated the Seven Emotions True Fire Scripture..."
Regardless, Wang Mu’s fingertips danced, slowly guiding the Divine Heart Flame to open up, allowing a deeper fusion.
Before long, with the Divine Heart Flame trembling violently, it indicated that it held no grudge at the moment, reaching a unity with his heart and spirit.
"I can merge my own divine flames with it."
Wang Mu took a deep breath...
This process, interacting and communicating with the divine flame, altered his hands, the primordial spirit surged, expending considerable effort.
This step should pose no issues.
The first to fuse naturally is the True Yang Star Flame, his initial divine flame.
Perhaps it’s the first time merging with other divine flames; the True Yang Star Flame showed slight loss of control, roughly forcing its way into the Divine Heart Flame, causing some resistance, thankfully Wang Mu managed to stabilize it slightly, slowly merging it.
Strands of True Yang Star Flames slowly merged into the Divine Heart Flame, causing the resistance to completely disappear, and then came the sense of compatibility.
After all, it’s a fresh power, likely the Divine Heart Flame also held some desire for it?
Until a certain moment, the Divine Heart Flame surged vigorously!
The True Yang Star Flame fully merged, elevating its flame power to a new height!
"It’s time for the next divine flame..."
Because of the recent fusion with the True Yang Star Flame, the Divine Heart Flame found it somewhat unbearable.
Moreover, the second divine flame is the Ice Fire, a special flame of extremely low temperature, offering the Divine Heart Flame a very different experience.
Consequently, some resistance emerged.
After pondering for a moment, Wang Mu’s fingertips gently danced, appeasing the stronger flame power of the Divine Heart Flame.
"Since it’s a fusion, there’s no active or passive relationship..."
Thus, Wang Mu straightforwardly transformed the Ice Fire into a cone shape, controlled the Divine Heart Flame from top to bottom, fused it with the Ice Fire.
This method seemed ingenious; initially, the Divine Heart Flame held some resistance, but soon under this approach, it gradually merged with the Ice Fire, even accelerating towards the end.
Wang Mu smiled slightly; the faster the fusion, the stronger the flame power of the Divine Heart Flame.
Until complete fusion.
This time, the extremely low temperature of the Ice Fire and the unique fusion approach provided the Divine Heart Flame with intense flame power!
Great success!
The subsequent two divine flames, Wang Mu used unique fusion methods for each, allowing the Divine Heart Flame to perfectly integrate...
Especially the Karmic Fire, Wang Mu discreetly absorbed the karmic power of the latter during fusion.
Unknowing how much time passed.
"Brother Dongfang... Everything’s ready... can... start formal alchemy..."
Vaguely, unsure if it’s the consciousness of the Divine Heart Flame or Mo Xilan’s voice...
The alchemy officially began...
——
Two months later.
Wang Mu hadn’t crafted such a long duration elixir in years.
For the first time, he felt somewhat strained, fortunately his constitution was strong enough, his Infinite Demon Body fully attaining great success, allowing him to continuously maintain his condition.
Even towards the end, Mo Xilan found it hard to endure, surprisingly at Wang Mu’s ability to sustain, controlling the flames.
To say this elixir, it’s indeed not easy to refine.
Yet, for alchemists, the process is naturally enjoyable.
From the initial injection of materials into the Pill Furnace, the flames inch by inch melting innumerable Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, each inch made to merge, the unrivaled energy, the surging flame, the perfect fit, subsequently bursting into radiant brilliance, everything attracts every alchemist deeply.
Wang Mu is also an alchemist, naturally deeply immersed in it.
Throughout the refining process, to maintain the flame’s temperature, needed constant adjustments, covering every corner of the Pill Furnace with perfect divine flame, feeling the changing state of the ingredients within, every technique required precision.
Until that moment of elixir formation.
To Wang Mu’s surprise, despite being such a divine elixir, there was no phenomenon from the heavens.
Instead, there was calmness.
Like the calm after a storm, the Pill Furnace red-hot from the divine flame gradually dissipating its warmth, returning to its original state.
Pill Furnace opened wide.
Two elixirs emitting a faint glow flew out, rotating back and forth like yin and yang.
"Elixir formed." Wang Mu said.
"Mmm..."
Beside him, Mo Xilan let out a weak sound.
Wang Mu glanced over.
At this moment, Mo Xilan lay on the ground, her hair reflecting watery light, spreading like plantain leaves. Upon further inspection, her complexion was rosy, with eyes half-lifted yet slowly lowering, seemingly unwilling to open, her body occasionally trembling slightly, evidently extremely exhausted.
Wang Mu shook his head.
Although Mo Xilan is an Ascension Expert, crafting such a potent elixir... truly consumes an extraordinary amount!
Compared to this, he handled the minor tasks, resulting in relatively low consumption...
After all, this elixir, is not an ordinary one.
Such alchemy, even for an Ascension Expert, it’s nearly unbearable, Wang Mu thought...
