Chapter 1126: Seventh Grade Elixir Myriad Medicines Dragon Blood Pill

Ten days later.

On Longshe Shan in Cangzhou, Chen Chuyang strengthened the formation of Longshe Shan; resources were abundant, making it extravagant.

There was no limit to the strengthening; regarding spirit stones, there was no need to be polite—just pour them in, not caring at all about their consumption.

Qinglong Daoren didn't have much of anything else, just many spirit stones; the spirit stones Huang Yan brought were a terrifying amount, enough for him to use for a very long time—even if he gave some to Chen Chuyang, he still had plenty left, enough for them to cultivate for many years.

Moreover, Huang Yan was constantly gathering various materials, collecting all kinds of good things for him; as for spirit stones, naturally there was no shortage—Tianwai's resources were rich, and the spirit veins controlled by the Huang Family numbered several; the amount of spirit stones mined each day was considerable, and taking a portion of them would be enough to satisfy Qinglong Daoren.

The same was true for Bai Hang Holy Maiden's side—spirit stones were what they lacked the least, or rather, compared to having them search for various spiritual herbs, spirit stones were the easiest to obtain; if they couldn't produce them, they could go seize other factions' spirit veins, as a single spirit vein could yield many spirit stones.

The strength of Tian Du Men lay in its many spirit stone veins; they mined them daily, with faction disciples going out to extract them, and the faction's daily spirit stone consumption was a terrifying number—even more terrifying than that of elixirs.

As for elixirs, many disciples cannot afford to be extravagant; they can only constantly consume elixirs.

High-grade elixirs were even rarer; Chen Chuyang took note of this place's rich spiritual energy, a good spot for refining elixirs—just right, for he had gained a new insight into the Po Luo Elixir Canon. Seventh Grade Elixir had never been refined before; at best he could only make Sixth Grade Elixir, but now he could attempt to refine a Seventh Grade Elixir.

Spiritual herbs were plentiful, various resources abundant, and there was no worry about replenishment—this place was simply the best. Chen Chuyang adjusted his mind, steadied his essence, energy, and spirit, took out the Alchemy Furnace, prepared to refine elixirs; many materials were ready, and formations surrounded the area, a separately arranged formation to prevent the commotion of his elixir refining from affecting the surrounding spiritual herbs.

He also didn't want the elixir's aroma to leak out; with numerous formations enclosing it, it couldn't escape, nor would outside demonic beasts smell it. After making thorough preparations, Chen Chuyang began to conceive the elixir—in his mind he had already been conceiving it these days, researching formulas.

As for cultivation, he wasn't in a hurry; his cultivation speed was already fast, he didn't rush a breakthrough, nor would he force himself to break through. Regarding the need for spiritual energy, Xu Junbai was inferior to others; these days he let himself devour spiritual energy, filling his body.

Unfortunately, even after ten days he still couldn't fill his body, but Chen Chuyang naturally wasn't in a hurry.

This time the elixir he intended to refine was called the Myriad Medicines Dragon Blood Pill, an upgraded version of the Nine-Grade Dragon Blood Pill, gathering many spiritual herbs, all precious ones, with ages not low—most were century-old spiritual herbs.

Among them, there were plenty of Sixth Grade spiritual herbs, and many Seventh Grade spiritual herbs; numerous spiritual herbs were combined.

This was a completely new elixir created by Chen Chuyang combining his own understanding with his research into the Po Luo Elixir Canon; solely in the aspect of pill refining, Chen Chuyang could devise many formulas, and the Po Luo Elixir Canon recorded the properties of many spiritual herbs, each of which he had memorized.

They combined, inferred, and fused together; moreover, many elixir formulas were dissected and reassembled in his mind.

"Myriad Medicines Dragon Blood Pill, a Seventh Grade Elixir—after countless simulations of mine, this is the first time I am refining it."

"The difficulty of refining has increased manyfold, something a Sixth Grade Elixir cannot compare to."

"In every aspect, I still don't know; I need to be extremely careful."

Refining a Seventh Grade Elixir is no simple matter; Chen Chuyang naturally wouldn't be careless or act recklessly—take it slow, the first step must be steady.

Must not rush, nor act recklessly.

Chen Chuyang took a deep breath, adjusted his essence, energy, and spirit, and began to put in the spiritual herbs in order.

Flames burned, the Alchemy Furnace emitted a red light, and the spiritual herbs inside quickly melted.

One stalk after another was thrown in; shortly after entering, they melted directly.

The flame's temperature was very high—a blended primordial true fire of many flames, no longer the original Pill Fire.

At this step, Chen Chuyang didn't need to worry; just pour them in according to the sequence, with his mind guiding—still not the most crucial moment.

Numerous spiritual herbs were poured in; not knowing how long, it lasted a full hour, continuously adding spiritual herbs.

After the final stalk of spiritual herb was poured in, Chen Chuyang fixed his gaze on the Alchemy Furnace, his hands quickly forming hand seals—each seal different, these being Chen Chuyang's pill-refining hand seals.

After these seals were formed, the spiritual herb liquid inside the Alchemy Furnace rapidly boiled, then began to evaporate impurities.

This is a very important step; the spiritual herbs contain many impurities, and these impurities affect the elixir's quality and also determine success or failure.

Must not be careless, must not be negligent; no mishap can occur.

Chen Chuyang is a person who demands perfection—either don't refine, or do it to the best of his ability, at least the best he can currently achieve.

Removing impurities is a laborious task, consuming both time and mental focus.

After half a day, the impurities in the Alchemy Furnace had been mostly cleared away.

A large mass of liquid coalesced into a mass the size of a head; the liquid appeared transparent, all impurities having been removed, leaving a blend of many colors—ultimately a clear, luminous essence.

In Chen Chuyang's eyes, this mass of liquid contained five colors and six shades.

"Condense."

With impurities cleared away, only the final step remained—condensing the elixir.

This step was crucial; Chen Chuyang quickly changed his hand seals, beginning to form the hand seals for condensing the elixir.

They were different.

Melting, removing impurities, condensing the elixir, and finally collecting the elixir—each step is different.

Each step requires specific hand seals; Chen Chuyang already had a standard set of motions, and this held true for Seventh Grade Elixir as well—the difference being that refining a Seventh Grade Elixir consumes many times more essence, energy, and spirit than a Sixth Grade Elixir, and furthermore, the fusion of various spiritual herbs is also fraught with unexpected occurrences.

It's not that you can simply fuse them as you wish; each fusion may bring about unexpected events.

This step has already passed.

Inside the Alchemy Furnace, the flames blazed, beginning to rapidly evaporate the spiritual liquid; the spiritual liquid swiftly contracted and coalesced.

Chen Chuyang quickly formed seals with his hands, and the liquid began to coalesce into elixir.

Chen Chuyang stared at the Alchemy Furnace, daring not to relax or shift his gaze, his mind in control—this step was especially important; how many elixirs could be refined depended on this operation.

Not a single drop can be mistaken; if mistaken, the consequences would be severe.

It could explode at any moment.

Chen Chuyang certainly didn't want so many spiritual herbs to go to waste, nor did he want his efforts to be in vain.

"Condense."

At his command, the Alchemy Furnace began to condense the elixir.

The elixir's fragrance began to waft, filling the formation.
