Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Renyi and Jiang Rendao didn’t expect this seclusion to last for so long.
However, when they thought of the upcoming demon beast riot in a few decades, they quickly understood.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were probably entering seclusion this time to prepare for the demon beast riot.
At the thought of this, Jiang Renyi and Jiang Rendao nodded.
Jiang Renyi said, “Granduncle, Grandaunt, don’t worry. If there’s nothing important, we won’t disturb you.”
After that, they talked about some other things. When they were almost done, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t ask the two brothers to stay any longer.
After the two brothers left, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t waste any time and went to Shen Ruyan’s cave abode.
The main purpose of the couple’s seclusion this time was to increase their cultivation.
Therefore, the first thing they had to do was to refine some cultivation pills.
The most important thing was naturally the Water Breakthrough Pill.
After all these years of practice, Jiang Chengxuan’s alchemy had already steadily reached the high-grade Level 2.
Although he couldn’t make Level 3 pills yet, he could help Shen Ruyan refine some medicinal liquid needed for the refinement of Level 3 pills.
Moreover, assisting Shen Ruyan in refining pills and observing her refining process would be very beneficial to Jiang Chengxuan’s alchemy skills.
Therefore, whenever Shen Ruyan was making Level 3 and above pills, Jiang Chengxuan would always be with her.
At this moment.
The couple had already taken out the Water Apricot Fruit, the Fire Green Wood Vine, and the Spiritual Echo Flower needed to refine the Water Breakthrough Pill.
The main reason why they did not use the Water Apricot Fruit to exchange for the Water Breakthrough Pill was that it was not worth it.
The value of a Water Apricot Fruit was far higher than the Water Breakthrough Pill.
Moreover, by gathering medicinal herbs and refining the Water Breakthrough Pill themselves, the number of medicinal pills they obtained in the end would be far more than one.
Therefore, unless it was necessary, they would not use a Water Apricot Fruit to exchange for a Water Breakthrough Pill.
Dong—
A furnace with two handles and three legs suddenly appeared in front of Shen Ruyan.
This furnace was called the True Herb Furnace. It was a Level 3 alchemy furnace that the Jiang family had bought for Shen Ruyan.
When using it to refine pills, the final success rate and number of pills would be much higher than using an ordinary alchemy furnace.
As Shen Ruyan activated the spiritual fire, the entire furnace emitted a blazing orange light.
Then, a fresh medicinal fragrance wafted out.
This was a medicinal fragrance naturally produced by this furnace after refining medicinal pills countless times.
It was said that there was once an Alchemy Grandmaster who used a Level 1 pill furnace to refine pills.
After decades if not hundreds of years of accumulation, the Level 1 pill furnace finally transformed into a Level 5 pill furnace without adding any materials.
This still remained a legend among the alchemists.
Moreover, he confirmed to all alchemists that alchemy furnaces could complete the transformation of their grades through continuous refinement.
Of course.
Under normal circumstances, everyone would still buy an alchemy furnace that matched their alchemy level.
There were only a few who did what that Alchemy Grandmaster did.
Unless you had formed a deep bond with your alchemy furnace, you wouldn’t choose that path.
Then, the couple began to refine the most basic supplementary materials.
This process lasted for about half a month.
Half a month later, Shen Ruyan finally began to refine the Water Apricot Fruit, the Fire Green Wood Vine, and the Spiritual Echo Flower.
Jiang Chengxuan helped out and observed Shen Ruyan’s refining process at every stage.
As the flames burned, three months passed quickly.
On this day.
Shen Ruyan raised her hands and quickly cast dozens of Pill Formation Spells at the furnace.
Buzz!
As the furnace gently trembled, an extremely dense medicinal fragrance suddenly drifted out from the True Herb Furnace.
Upon smelling this medicinal fragrance, a look of joy appeared on Jiang Chengxuan’s face, but it quickly turned solemn.
He knew that the pill refinement had reached the most critical moment.
If Shen Ruyan was not careful, there was a high chance that she would fail.
Therefore, at this moment, he did not dare to make any noise.
He even lowered his breathing.
Shen Ruyan also had a look of unprecedented seriousness.
She did not dare to be careless at all.
Finally, another three days passed.
As Shen Ruyan cast the last spell,
The True Herb Furnace trembled again.
With a clang, the lid of the True Herb Furnace burst open.
Shen Ruyan immediately raised her hand.
There was a whoosh.
Five light blue Water Breakthrough Pills flew into a jade bottle that she had prepared in advance..
