Ryu Refining Pills

After warming up the cauldron and to the required level from his memory, Ryu pick up the water pine bark and throw it inside the Eternal three suns tripod, and refined it for 20 minutes.

The water pine bark was quite hard and used a lot of time to into a liquid form also because Ryu refining flame is still immature, it takes a lot of time to refine the bark.

Normally to get the pill flame stronger, it can be get from beast flame or nurtured by separating part of the soul of the alchemist or blacksmith and inject inside the flame, but these can only be done by someone with a strong and abundant soul qi,

So most alchemist uses beast qi to refine pills.

Ryu continues to refine the water pine bark until it becomes a liquid,

After that, he add the root broth ginseng, and refined it for 7 minutes, until it become liquid too.

He also add the 7 leafed grass mixing at the other corner of the Eternal three suns cauldron, and he also refined it for 7 minutes, each leaf refined for one minute.

The 7 leafed grass got its name from the refining process of refining for 7 minutes but for a mortal grade rank 2 alchemists, he will only use 5 minutes and the higher the rank, the faster the herb is refined, but because the herb is rank 1 herb, it is named after mortal grade tier 1 alchemist.

The three embryos of the herbs condense to become round in the corner of the cauldron, they need a medium to connect,

Ryu add the black-striped leopard core, and the embryos of the herb moved and started rounding the core, slowly, slowly, and slowly...until it goes up and started rounding it faster, and as they are rounding they are also fusing with the core gradually,

When they are the four ingredients are almost fusing, Ryu hurriedly adds the Earthly water pine which is the size of a finger, and dropped on the middle of the four ingredients.

Immediately after dropping the vibration of the four ingredients rounding and fusing slowly ground the Earthly water pine which is soft, and looked half liquid.

The Earthly water pine ground away and the final phase of the pill refining began they immediately fused to produce a booming sound inside the cauldron which signifies that the pill is formed.

When Ryu started refining pills earlier, the Earthly Asura Buddha stone and the universe dragon were competing about how many times Ryu will refine before he can able to produce a pill, and the universe dragon said 3 times because he is confident in Ryu's comprehension talent.

While the Earthly Asura Buddha stone said 2 times

But when Ryu finished refining the pill in one go, they were stunned by his feat but the universe dragon immediately said

"Hmmm.. he refined it because he got the memories of an ancient god, so it shouldn't be that shocking, let's check, how many pills he refined and the grades, humph I don't believe he can refine more than 1 pill with the highest grade being mid-grade" little long said confidently.

"Master quickly open the cauldron, let see, I'm quite curious, let me see what is inside"

The dragon urges Ryu he was quite impatient to know what is inside and also to win the bet between him and the Earthly Asura Buddha stone.

Ryu doesn't waste any time and he opened the cauldron.

When he opened the cauldron, the fatty void who hasn't joined the conversation but was just listening earlier, the spirit didn't join as he wasn't too familiar with both the dragon and the stone as he just awakened now, so he is still awkward.

The four people inside there were surprised, even Ryu.

Ryu doesn't think he can produce this many pills.

5 pills in one go! And they are all high grades!

The dragon was dumbfounded also, he even forget his bet with the stone for a time, he was really stunned,

The dragon looked around to see the other expressions and he was instantly disgusted, he saw the fatty drooling, looking at Ryu with shining eyes like a piece of treasure or food, but the fatty can't eat, he is just a spirit after all so he was only attracted to Ryu's talent.

The dragon instantly shouted from Ryu's dantian

"Hey, fatty why are you looking at my master like that, humph, you better wipe your drool, my master Isn't into men, and even if he was it's not a fatty like you" the dragon snorted and said.

The fatty void instantly regained his bearing and use his sleeves to wipe his mouth.

"Who said I'm interested in master, I'm just surprised, and nothing more don't you dragon accuse me wrongly " the fatty pointed to the dragon while trembling with anger.

The spirit can see the dragon as they are both spirits now, the dragon's body hasn't formed yet so he can't go out for now till Ryu finished cultivating the indestructible Primal Body Techniques to the mortal completion.

The dragon can only supply qi to Ryu from inside his dantian and talk to him but can't leave his dantian for now.

Ryu and the stone recovered from their stupor and Ryu shouted

"Both of you will you shut up and let me concentrate, I want to refine another some rank 1 pill more so just stop your quarrel and don't disturb me"

"But master..." The dragon want to continue when Ryu added

"You two are billions of years old but still behaving like children, stop and let me concentrate, I don't want to hear any word from now"

"Okay, Master, "both the fatty and dragon said.

Inwardly, Ryu complained ' ahh why do I just have old monsters like children, I think only the stone is more sensible among them, but the spirit was quite sensible before we extract the physique from the fatty, he shouldn't have extracted the character too right?'

Ryu thought, sighed, and continued his refining, he only refine rank 1 pills

Sometimes he refined 5 pills in one go, or 6 with relatively simple to refine pills, but 3 to 4 for the relatively hard or extra hard ones.

But something isn't an exception,

The fatty, little long and the stone will be surprised all the time, especially with the hard one, which can't even be supposed to be refined in an attempt.

...

When Ryu was busy refining pills outside the IMPERISHABLE GOLDEN ABODE, the soldiers in squads are still looking for Ryu who was inside the ABODE, the general harshly demanded every soldier to search for Ryu ardently or they will be punished but of course except the fatty among them who was busy sleeping and snoring loudly.

Anytime the soldiers heard any ruckus, they will rush to the place to discover, it was just animals,

It happened to them several times and when it reached a stage, the soldiers sometimes angrily kill the beast to vent their anger.

The soldiers are very hungry and exhausted as they have used more than 20 days here searching in vain for Ryu and they are getting frustrated, their supplies for food have long finished and the general deliberately denied them food because the general is getting angrier with days they use in searching.

Ryu inside the IMPERISHABLE GOLDEN ABODE just finished refining one of the hardest to refine pills, the Qi engulfing meridian pill which can be used to engulf the various Elemental qi in the surroundings and hasten the time of cultivation of the heirs.

This pill formula was given to Ryu by the dragon with the indestructible Primal Body Techniques when he transmitted the technique to him.

It is known that the heirs of the indestructible Primal Body Techniques cannot advance in their cultivation stages except to use the various Elemental qi in the surroundings or inside the crystals.

But Elemental crystals are quite rare and not easy to get so the first heir of the indestructible Primal Body Techniques invent the pills which were later perfected by the other heirs to hasten their advancement in cultivation.

When Ryu finished refining the pill, he throws the pill inside his mouth which instantly dissolved and dispersed into his meridian and automatically attract the various Elemental qi in the Spacetime Void and the surroundings outside the Spacetime Void.

Yes, inside the Spacetime Void!

It should be known that the abode should only contain the darkness and light elements and no other elements but all the elements were attracted from inside the Spacetime Void and the surroundings outside the abode.

The qi generated and attracted to Ryu except for the darkness and light qi from inside the Spacetime Void is minute, they are very minimal to the extent that if Ryu wasn't paying attention to his surroundings to check the work of the pill, he wouldn't have noticed the qi inside the Spacetime Void.

Ryu was confused and ask fatty void

"Fatty void, you said you are only light elements before you merged with the black substance from the cosmos, are you sure because I'm attracting other elements from around this place except the darkness and light elements but they are very minimal and If not because of the engulfing pill I used I wouldn't even be able to attract it, "Ryu said explaining to the fatty.

"Impossible....master there is no way I won't know if there are other elements inside here but I don't perceive any other qi other than the 2 elements darkness and light elements" fatty void said.

"Okay, you will understand now, come closer to me and pay attention to the surroundings, be fast as the pill effectiveness will be lost soon," Ryu said and urges the round fatty to hurry.

The pill grade is low grade and Ryu only gets one refined, in his capabilities as the pill difficulty in refining is quite high, so the effects are so bad to only last five minutes, but this feat too surprised the three, especially the dragon, because he knows the difficulty in refining the pill, the other heir usually use more than 2 times to get the pills refined.

Even the one with a monster comprehension used 2 times to get the pill refined.

The fatty moved closer to Ryu and get attentive, he release his senses and even use his intimate feeling with the Spacetime Void as he is the spirit of the Spacetime Void but even 2 minutes later the fatty doesn't feel anything. He said

"Master you must be hallucinating, there is no other qi around here, except the darkness and light qi and the one from the outside and they are impure..master are you okay, I think you are tired from refining so get some rest to stop all this nonsense you are saying, "the fatty said and with a caring expression on his face said again while moving toward Ryu Putting his hand on Ryu's face.

Ryu was speechless and confused why the fatty can't sense it, that he was the only one that can 'is it only me that can feel the minute, why is that, is it because I'm the master of it or, I used the pill or ...' Ryu kept running different hypothesis inside his head when he suddenly feels a hand on the face which startled him.

"You shameless fatty, get your hand off me, I'm not interested in man as little long said earlier why were you even touching my face, Arggggg... I feel like vomiting, ahhh" Ryu jumped out of his thought when he feels the hand and scolded the fatty while clawing at his throat and bending in vomiting positive.

Fatty void expression looked strange and wronged while looking at Ryu's drama.

'ahhh...!! I was only trying to help but look what he said to me, is it wrong to care for your master ahhh... Is it a sin to care also but there is no alternative, hmmm...I don't have a choice I must care for him hmmm...yes that's right 'the spirit said feeling wronged and after that regained his spirit while thinking he is right to care for his master.
