"There's no need for such formality, Elder Hai. You can return in three years, it will be the same."
Su Yun's calm voice echoed in his ear.
Hai Bodong sighed. Emotions were one thing, but he really didn't want to return to this wretched place.
Thinking about the years when Medusa sealed his Martial Qi, he shuddered.
Because Hai Bodong only had Spirit Fighter strength now, he couldn't transform his Martial Qi into wings, so the three of them had to ride a flying magical beast back to the Jiamai Empire.
If they relied on their feet, it would take a considerable amount of time to return.
A few days later, Su Yun and the others arrived at Blackrock City.
Actually, they wanted to fly directly back to Wu Tan City.
However, Wu Tan City didn't have a flying magical beast service point.
They could only go to Blackrock City and walk back from there.
Upon arriving at Blackrock City, Hai Bodong was clearly eager.
"Little brother, is this place fine? We're already far from the Tallgor Great Desert."
Seeing Hai Bodong's appearance, Su Yun pondered for a moment and decided it was acceptable.
Blackrock City wasn't far from Wu Tan City, and the Queen Medusa's crystal ball shouldn't be able to sense them here.
It would be good to refine the Eradicating Calamity Pill here.
Once Hai Bodong recovered his Martial Emperor cultivation, they wouldn't have to walk back to Wu Tan City; they could fly directly.
It would be more convenient.
However, speaking of that crystal ball, Su Yun licked his dry lips.
That thing could sense Strange Fire within a certain range. He had to find a way to snatch it in the future!
With this thought, Su Yun nodded.
"Alright."
Seeing Su Yun nod, Hai Bodong was overjoyed.
The three of them found an inn and directly rented the entire place.
Of course, the gold coins were paid by Hai Bodong.
Su Yun took out an Alchemy Cauldron from the System Space and looked at Hai Bodong.
"Elder Hai, the Elixir Formula and the other medicinal herbs."
Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong hurriedly took out the Eradicating Calamity Pill's Elixir Formula and the herbs from his Storage Ring.
Hai Bodong handed everything to Su Yun.
"This pill is called the Eradicating Calamity Pill. It has the power to break seals and can even form some resistance within the body."
Hai Bodong explained to Su Yun.
Su Yun nodded. He already knew this, given the detailed description of the pill.
Su Yun immersed his soul power in the Elixir Formula, sensing the fire control, herb quantities, and other details recorded in it.
After a while, Su Yun memorized all the content and stored it in the System Space, with no intention of returning it to Hai Bodong.
This action made Hai Bodong's eyes twitch, but he had no choice.
That's the way it is for alchemists. Once the Elixir Formula is handed over to the alchemist, don't expect to get it back.
Su Yun adjusted his state but didn't start immediately.
After all, this was his first time refining a sixth-grade pill.
According to common sense, a Spirit Fighter's cultivation isn't enough to refine a sixth-grade pill; at least a Martial King is required.
But who could blame him for having Strange Fire now?
Just like Xiao Yan, who refined a fifth-grade Dragon Strength Pill at the level of a Great Battlemaster.
He was now a five-star Spirit Fighter, and the Burning Cold Decision had evolved into a Low-Class Earth Rank Technique. After being tempered by Strange Fire, the capacity of his Dantian had increased significantly.
With all these conditions combined, the Martial Qi in his body could match that of an ordinary eight-star Spirit Fighter.
With the addition of Strange Fire, he could refine a sixth-grade pill at the Spirit Fighter level.
Strange Fire was extremely beneficial and highly coveted.
Besides tempering the body and reducing the cultivation requirements for refining pills, it could also increase the success rate of refining pills and allow one to fight beyond their level, among many other advantages.
After Su Yun adjusted his state, he circulated his Martial Qi, drawing out the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire from his Dantian and began refining.
Hai Bodong, standing beside him, felt a shock when he saw the green flame in Su Yun's hands.
What a terrifying temperature! Is this Strange Fire?
Hai Bodong's expression was solemn. Strange Fire truly deserved its reputation as a celestial spirit. Such a terrifying temperature would be a headache even for him at his peak.
Moreover, A five-star Spirit Fighter!!
Hai Bodong's eyebrows twitched, feeling a sense of disbelief.
Previously, due to the Phantom Shadow Technique, Su Yun's aura was hidden within his body, and Hai Bodong hadn't noticed.
Now, as Su Yun started refining the pill, his Martial Qi fluctuations emerged, and Hai Bodong realized that in just three to four months, this young man's cultivation had increased by four stars!
What kind of monster is this?
While Hai Bodong was in a state of confusion, Su Yun's expression was focused. His soul power emerged from his body, precisely controlling the fire and the Martial Qi, using every bit precisely without any waste.
The green flame rapidly refined the herbs, a speed Su Yun had never experienced before.
It's no wonder it's Strange Fire.
Whether it was the flame condensed from his own Martial Qi or the Purple Fire extracted from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's body, neither could match this speed, let alone reach a third of it.
A sense of amazement flashed through Su Yun's mind, making him feel that the suffering he endured to refine Strange Fire was worth it.
Half a day passed, and all the herbs were refined, forming a rich medicinal liquid in the Alchemy Cauldron.
His soul power concentrated inside the Alchemy Cauldron, and now came the final step—forming the pill.
Su Yun's face was covered in sweat, his mind highly focused.
At this moment, a pill fragrance wafted out from the Alchemy Cauldron.
Hai Bodong, standing beside him, felt a wave of joy.
It's almost successful.
As for Qing Lin, she had fallen asleep on the table.
Another half an hour passed, and the pill took shape, emitting a purple glow into the sky.
Pill Formation Phenomenon!
Holding the sixth-grade Eradicating Calamity Pill in his hand, a smile flashed across Su Yun's face.
He took out some pills to restore his Martial Qi from the System Space and swallowed them.
How long did it take to advance from a 4th Rank Alchemist to a 6th Rank Alchemist?
It should have taken about three years.
And that was due to insufficient cultivation.
One could only say that the system's recycling function was incredibly powerful.
As long as the cultivation was sufficient, the alchemy skills would be perfected immediately.
It saved him a considerable amount of time.
Su Yun handed the Eradicating Calamity Pill to Hai Bodong, who was already eager.
The Pill Formation Phenomenon had already attracted a lot of attention.
He needed to quickly refine the pill and leave.
Although not everyone understood the significance of the purple glow, Falkran and Otto would definitely know.
Hai Bodong held the Eradicating Calamity Pill in both hands, examining it for a moment before he couldn't suppress his enthusiasm and swallowed it.
He sat cross-legged and began to refine the pill's power. Half an hour later, A powerful and vast aura swept through the entire inn.
Qing Lin, who was sleeping soundly, was startled awake.
She rubbed her eyes and yawned cutely.
What a comfortable sleep.
At this moment, a large hand stroked her small head.
Qing Lin looked back and realized she was in Young Master's arms.
She shyly lowered her head, her delicate and lovely face blushing.
"Hahaha…"
Hai Bodong, feeling the surging Martial Qi in his body, couldn't help but let out a long, joyous cry.
"From now on, I, Hai Bodong, will be free from all restraints!"
