2239 Take a Look
Swoosh!
The transparent fire rose and instantly swallowed the bright golden flower petal!
A small uproar broke within the spectating crowd. “She actually split the dragon-taming nut apart?”
“The purest essence of the dragon-taming nut is inside the middle of the flower. Once the petals are taken off, the force inside will rapidly deplete. Even a person who is not a heavenly doctor like me knows that the dragon-taming nut must be refined as a whole. How would she not know?”
“Who knows what she’s thinking? To think that I still thought she’s quite capable… Now, it seems like she’s ignorant and impulsive.”
On the opposite side, Liang He looked up, glanced at her, and knitted his brows. She is a Senior Physician after all. Logically speaking, she shouldn’t make such a mistake.
Suddenly, his gaze focused, and a hint of shock quickly flashed across his eyes.
On the opposite end, after the transparent fire within the Heavenly Square Cauldron wrapped around that petal, it quickly formed a circular structure that separated from the fire below.
That transparent fireball floated in the cauldron and burned quietly. However, this was not the most important thing.
The thing Liang He felt most incredulous about was: the transparent fireball seemed to be empty!
The dragon-taming nut petals were very weak, and if the temperature was slightly higher, it would directly burn it. However, this fire had already wrapped it for quite some time, and that petal still seemed intact.
The only change was that its edges had curled up, and it seemed to be from baking within the fire. However… this wasn’t a bad thing—it was quite the opposite. Using such a method would activate the medicinal effects within the dragon-taming nut to the maximum.
Liang He stared at her in a daze and was rather distracted.
He had studied the Settling Yuan Pill formula for a long time but didn’t try it, as he knew that the dragon-taming nut was hard to handle.
Now, the scene before him made him understand. The entire thing wasn’t easy to refine, so it would be better to break it down into pieces! In pieces like this, one could clearly gather the force and energy to raise the success rate.
Except… wouldn’t the purest force in the middle of the flower be wasted with this method?
Liang He hesitated for a moment and shook his head, thinking that Chu Liuyue’s method could not be used.
He took out a dragon-taming nut and meticulously placed it within the copper cauldron.
Whoosh!
Under his control, the fire in the cauldron turned into many small ones and wrapped that dragon-taming nut bit by bit.
“He is the youngest Supreme Physician in Fantasy Divine Palace after all. His sensitivity and agility in this area can’t be paralleled…”
“He has broken through to become a Supreme Physician for quite some time, right? Though this Settling Yuan Pill is hard, I think that he will definitely win.”
Chu Liuyue had already automatically ignored all the sounds in the surroundings as she stared at the Heavenly Square Cauldron before her tightly. Her entire body tensed up, feeling extremely nervous.
She wasn’t as relaxed or nonchalant as she looked like to the crowd. That was because she didn’t dare guarantee that she could succeed this time.
Ever since she successfully produced the Senior Physician-level pill in the Red Moon Desert, she realized that there were quite a few of similar levels in the formulas Big Baby gave in the past. This also meant that before she broke through, she had already learned these.
But before she broke through, she wasn’t very clear of the difference in standards, so she was fooled by Big Baby for so many years.
However, this also had an extreme benefit. After she stepped through that threshold, she started growing at a shocking speed.
In the past, she only understood some of the formulas. Now that she officially broke through, many problems could be solved.
She didn’t even need to think much about it; she just had to take a few glances and understand it. That was also why she placed all her efforts on Supreme Physician-level medicinal formulas.
Even though she hadn’t seen the Settling Yuan Pill pill before, she was very familiar with these herbs. She was even more well-practiced with these herbs’ medicinal effects and their appropriate refinement methods.
This was also why she dared to suggest this bet.
But at the end of the day, she hadn’t actually tried it, so she was even more careful.
Her actions did not stop as she quickly threw the dragon-taming nut petals into the cauldron, one by one.
Very quickly, every petal was wrapped by a small transparent fire.
They floated within the cauldron and formed their own worlds.
…
Shu Jing looked over, and when she saw the situation in the Heavenly Square Cauldron, she was instantly shocked and knitted her brows slightly.
Other people couldn’t tell, but she understood how hard it was to do this step.
It was naturally very hard to refine the entire dragon-taming nut on its own, but it was also not easy to split the petals apart and refine them at the same time, like she did. From a certain angle, it had extremely strict requirements on the heavenly doctor’s control.
If one was slightly uncareful, something might happen. But… Chu Liuyue did not.
All the transparent fireballs quietly burned in the Heavenly Square Cauldron, squeezing out the medicinal effects of the dragon-taming nut one by one.
Shu Jing’s gaze landed on Chu Liuyue.
At this point, sweat had already broken out on her forehead, and she pressed her lips against each other slightly.
Clearly, this used up a large amount of her energy and force. However, her eyes were still crystal clear and determined.
She seemed like… she could still persist for a while.
Shu Jing knitted her brows even more tightly. She is just a Senior Physician and should’ve given up a long time ago. How could Chu Liuyue continue?
On the other end, Liang He’s surrounding aura could be seen to decline since he started handling the dragon-taming nut.
If this continues, it would be a problem if they can form a pill!
…
When Xiao Ba came, she saw this scene.
Quite a few people were already in the surroundings, and they focused looking in the same direction.
“Hey, everyone, please let me pass—” She couldn’t see clearly from the outside, so Xiao Ba wanted to move forward.
Her voice was so soft and cutesy that quite a few people turned around.
When they saw that it was her, many people looked surprised and hurriedly made way.
Xiao Ba smiled and thanked them before she slowly moved forward.
Shu Jing noticed the commotion here and looked over. When she saw the incoming person was Xiao Ba, her expression instantly became colder. “Didn’t I warn you previously that you can’t casually enter the medicinal mountain?”
Xiao Ba laughed. “Eighth Deity, I’m not planning to enter! Don’t worry. I’ll just stay here and watch!”
Her gaze quickly swept across Chu Liuyue’s side. Then, her eyes lit up as she smiled deeply. “I’m here to watch my master win. It’s the same watching from afar and nearby!”
