Chapter 2348 Making the Pill

There were many secure locations around Hardrock City, created with the intention of giving privacy and removing all distractions for the Alchemists who returned after completing their first competition.

Alex entered one of these places, leaving Pearl and Momo outside, where members of the staff kept constant watch.

The room he entered had rigid walls, seemingly created from brick and mortar, and yet it was also a portable room—not unlike tents, only this one couldn't be folded.

Alex had known about such houses that could be carried along in storage bags, and from what he could tell of the room he had entered, this was no different from them.

Once this was all over, someone could just come by and scoop away the place, leaving nothing behind as if there had been nothing to begin with.

He shook away his curiosity about the room he was in and quickly sat down, focusing on the pill he needed to make.

The Grand Tranquility Pill wasn't very unique in its naming, but its ingredients were certainly the most different from what Alex had used before.

Alex hadn't even used many of the ingredients before, so he wasn't sure exactly what he was getting into. For the first time in a long time, he couldn't rely on his understanding of the ingredients at all. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He needed to rely entirely on the recipe that was given to him.

Because of the lack of ingredients, Alex didn't even have an opportunity to test out the energies that came from the ingredients that well. There was no telling yet what shape or size the particulates made from the refined ingredients were going to be.

That was to say, for this pill, he was going to have to fully rely on the fact that the Alchemy God hadn't pulled some trick within the recipe that could fail him.

The Winter Heart Bamboo wood and water went in one after another, adding more Wood energy as well as Water energy.

True Mist Berry added more Water energy, while Crimson Blade Leaves added Metal energy.

Cherry Blossom Apple seeds and Immortal Pearl Oak's sap added the much-needed Earth energy, followed by Devil Skull Flower, which added Yin energy to the mix.

The Quicksilver Fox's bile was full of Fire energy, which helped counter the otherwise excessive Wood and Water energy present in the pill.

The Emerald Raven's tail feathers that came afterward also contained Wood energy, but they were added into the mixture so slowly that instead of overwhelming the overall energy combination, they empowered the Fire energy from the Quicksilver Fox's bile, creating a greater equilibrium between the many elements in the pill.

The last two remaining ingredients weren't heavy on any elements in particular.

The Seven Colored Angel Rose's stamen added almost every other energy, including a hint of Time aura to the pill.

And then the 10 petals of the Golden Mind Chrysanthemum added the only other element that was truly lacking within the pill at this moment: Yang.

It also added one other thing, perhaps the most major of all within all of these ingredients. The Golden Mind Chrysanthemum had a large amount of spiritual energy within it as well, which was the final thing needed for a pill named the Grand Tranquility Pill.

When all the ingredients were added in the end and the powder remained at the very bottom, there was but one more thing left to do.

The energy swirled within the cauldron, aided by Memory, as the powder formed into a sphere. Once the powder took shape, the energy followed, spiraling into the pill until they found their place.

Once the powder and energy were together in a single pill, the sky rumbled, for their presence had called upon the Pill Clouds.
