Chapter 230: The Seventh-Rank Breakthrough Pill! Pill Thunder Appears!
Still within the valley.
"Whoosh"
A hot breath suddenly burst out from Gu He's nostrils.
Immediately, his expression turned extremely solemn.Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com
The next moment, with a thought from Gu He, a massive golden medicinal cauldron emerged from his spatial ring, falling heavily into the valley with the force of a thousand catties.
The golden cauldron, adorned with dragon patterns, landed heavily on a stone platform, causing the entire valley to tremble slightly.
The cauldron, robust in size and wrapped in a stable aura, was decorated with lifelike dragon-shaped magical beasts.
Upon closer inspection, these dragons seemed almost real, unmistakably forming the Dragon Soul Cauldron.
This pill refinement was the most challenging task Gu He had faced since becoming an alchemist, and he was naturally fully committed.
Now, the process of refining the Breakthrough Pill officially began!
Looking at the Dragon Soul Cauldron, Gu He took a deep breath and then a cluster of purple flames suddenly appeared in his palm.
With a flick of his finger, the purple flame, like a purple fire dragon, shot into the cauldron, bursting forth fiercely.
The roaring flames in the cauldron raised the temperature, adding a sense of dry heat to the surroundings.
Watching the fierce flames rise in the Dragon Soul Cauldron, Gu He's mind moved, and a large number of spiritual herbs were released. Wrapped in powerful Dou Qi, they hovered in front of him, shining like small orbs of light, looking quite spectacular from below.
"The Breakthrough Pill, a seventh-rank pill, can assist a nine-star Dou Zong in breaking through to the Dou Zun realm with a forty percent chance of success, truly miraculous."
"The materials needed for the Breakthrough Pill are extremely complex, about seventy types in total. The main ingredients are Blood Spirit Mushroom, Bone Spirit Fruit, Green Wood Spirit Vine, and the essence blood of a seventh-rank or higher magical beast. Each of these ingredients is rare and difficult to find, and the method of refining is particularly meticulous and demanding."
Gu He carefully reviewed the method for refining the Breakthrough Pill in his mind, paying special attention to the key aspects.
Needing over seventy types of materials for a single pill was a first for Gu He since he became an alchemist. Even when refining the Emperor Extreme Pill, the required herbs only amounted to half this number, illustrating the difficulty of making the Breakthrough Pill.
Dismissing the myriad thoughts in his mind, Gu He refocused, checked the temperature inside the cauldron, and nodded slightly. With a slight gesture, the raging purple flames inside the cauldron gradually weakened.
His gaze fixed on the cauldron, Gu He moved his finger and a light flashed, bringing forth a blood-red mushroom, which landed in his hand.
This mushroom, the Blood Spirit Mushroom, one of the main ingredients for the Breakthrough Pill, emitted a strong smell of blood. Within this scent, one could sense a pure energy fluctuation.
The Blood Spirit Mushroom, notoriously difficult to form, requires the absorption of essence blood from three seventh-rank magical beasts.
Gu He could feel an intense cold power within the Blood Spirit Mushroom.
Then, grasping the mushroom, he flicked his finger, and the Blood Spirit Mushroom transformed into a red light, plunging into the golden cauldron.
As soon as the Blood Spirit Mushroom entered the cauldron, it was engulfed by the purple flames.
At that moment, Gu He's thoughts moved, and dozens of herbs floating in the air were added to the cauldron, thrown into the fierce flames.
The hidden cold force within the Blood Spirit Mushroom would dissipate upon contact with the fire.
To extract its medicinal essence, other herbs that neutralize the coldness were required, which Gu He had prepared in advance.
He turned his gaze to the cauldron, where the pill embryo, wrapped in flames, was now a crimson pill. A look of relief appeared on Gu He's face.
The pill embryo was formed, and the next step was nurturing the pill. This step was risk-free thanks to Gu He's entry into the "Pill Soul Realm." With all the medicinal powers perfectly merged within the pill embryo, even without this final step, the pill's efficacy wouldn't be far off.
Naturally, as an alchemist, Gu He aimed for perfection, so he didn't skip the final step. The purple flame weakened, emitting a mild temperature that gently permeated the pill embryo.
This final nurturing step didn't take long. About ten hours later, the pitted pill embryo in the flames transformed into a thumb-sized pill, half red and half purple, resembling a
yin-yang fish pattern on its surface. It looked almost sentient, quite miraculous.
Just as the pill formed, the sky above the valley suddenly darkened, with heavy clouds rapidly gathering, and silver lightning snaked through them.
The sudden change startled the Black Scaled Cold Jiao, who stared in awe at the thickening clouds.
Then, a massive bolt of silver lightning burst forth, illuminating the darkened land.
Gu He looked up at the thick clouds and the roaring thunder nearby, feeling a buzzing in his ears.
"Is this the Pill Thunder?"
Watching the lightning snaking through the clouds and sensing the immense power it contained, Gu He's eyes flashed with surprise and excitement.
For countless alchemists, the greatest aspiration is to refine a high-level pill that can summon Pill Thunder, a mark of great honor.
And for Gu He, it was no different.
