Energy Recovery Pill (2)

After making sure that both the herb are not very close to each other, Zhou Mengyao used the Burning Hand Refining Technique after he turned on the fire. Using the said technique, he controlled the fire at a high temperature but not very high so as to make the Sunblade Grass not cause a violent reaction.

As he controls the fire, he made sure that the fire inside the pill furnace envelops both the Sunblade Grass and the Moonglow Grass. Base on the pill formula he should not put both the ingredients at the same time but he did it because of one reason.

It is much better, he realized that in his 11th try that it is easier to mix both if he puts them at the same time.

As he did so, both the herbs quickly became liquid. It turned into pure energy, after seeing that it have turned into a yellow liquid with some grayish-blue in it, Zhou Mengyao mixed them properly like he is cooking a soup.

After seeing that the liquid has turned into a yellow liquid with just a little tint of gray, Zhou Mengyao prepared for the last and hardest step of all.

He failed in this part way too many times already and there are no shortcuts for the next part.

As the Sunblade Grass and Moonglow Grass are already mixed properly, the last part is to make sure that the blood essence of the clawed rabbit will be absorbed by the liquid perfectly so as to ensure the success of the pill.

Making sure that every benefit is absorbed by the mixture as the last part is very hard, it isn't just putting it in the pill furnace and try mixing it.

He has to remove the impurity of the blood, it is not removed yet as the blood essence will quickly lose its effect once most of its impurities have been removed.

Alchemists will be the one to remove the impurities since one have to use the blood essence quickly after its impurity is removed or most of its benefits will be gone.

To make sure that the impurity of the blood essence is removed, Zhou Mengyao has to make sure to squeeze out the highest possible temperature that he can possibly achieve with the Burning Hand Refining Technique.

"I need to put more and more qi to make the fire be stronger."

Zhou Mengyao flinch for a moment as he felt that the fire is unbearably hot, his skin is in his arms and his hands look like they are about to get roasted but he never stops.

He just watches as he saw that the impurity of the blood essence is being removed slowly but surely.

"I need to maintain this for 5 more minutes, after this, I can mix the blood essence and let the fire do the rest and I can catch my breath after that."

With Zhou Mengyao's hand in the pill furnace to control the temperature of the fire, more and more sweat is coming from his forehead but the moment they fall down, they quickly became steam due to the hot temperature.

After seeing that more and more impurity is floating near the blood essence, Zhou Mengyao removed the see-through lid as he removes the impurity using his thought which heavily consumes qi.

The refining technique is the only reason that he can remove the impurity with just his thought, doing it this way will ensure that the blood essence's quality will not be reduced.

"Another minute and I will finally succeed again."

Zhou Mengyao looks at the blood essence with an expression of pain written on his face, he can't help it. It was hard but no hard work will be left unpaid so he have to bear with it.

"Bear with it. That's enough! Good!"

Zhou Mengyao smiled after he removed the last batch of impurities of the blood essence, he let the blood essence that is in liquid form and circular in shape with its imposing dark red color flew down freely and mixed with the yellow liquid.

He did not mix it after that, he doesn't have to as the blood essence and the yellow liquid will naturally be mixed equally. He removed his hand from the pill furnace as he set out a huge smile.

It is getting easier and easier after some trials, he only managed to succeed thrice with luck but that is enough luck for him to learn more enough.

If the last try succeeded then he will be able to level up the Burning Hand Refining Technique which needed a thousand experience points.

[Burning Hand Refining Technique]

[Level 1: 916/1000]

[Effects: One will be able to control the fire in pill refining easily.]

Zhou Mengyao waited for the pill to be finished, even if the pill failed there will not be any problem as he will still receive exp but the problem is that the amount is just not that high.

Zhou Mengyao wiped off the sweat on his face, as he drinks water to hydrate his dry throat.

He also has been feeling hungry for a while but he just brushed it off since there is still a task in front of him.

After making his dry throat wet again, he opened the lid of the pill furnace as he killed the fire. He let the pill cool down first for it to take shape before he took it out.

After some time, the yellow liquid mixed with the dark red aura has become completely solid. It now is a yellow pill with a dark red aura oozing out of it, surrounding it in a circle.

"How many pills are there? 6? Lucky me, my best earlier is 5."

Zhou Mengyao smiled as he looks at it and he puts the 6 pills in a bottle and he sealed it very tightly.

[Burning Hand Refining Technique +160]

[Congratulations 'Burning Hand Refining Technique' have leveled up.]

[Burning Hands Refining Technique]

[Level 2: 79/10000]

[Effects: One will be able to control the fire in pill refining easily.]

Zhou Mengyao look at the technique and saw that there are no changes in the effect but he somehow has more sense in the hot temperature of the room. He felt that he knew the temperature of the room and it made him uncomfortable for some reason.

He tried to adapt to it as he tried to create a fire inside another pill furnace, this time he can not just vaguely tell rather he can more accurately tell that he can feel and accurately guess the temperature.

Zhou Mengyao looks at the last set of ingredient, he wanted to see the effects of the technique being leveled up so he rest for a while and he prepared himself mentally.

After taking a breath for some seconds, Zhou Mengyao prepared all the ingredients.

He puts both the Sunblade Grass and Moonglow Grass again at the same time as he controls the fire.

'This temperature is a little bit too low, I need to make it higher in order to make sure that the qi in the Moonglow Grass will not be wasted.'

Zhou Mengyao focused as new knowledge suddenly arose in his head, he felt like he did the same thing a thousand times already.

As he is more in control of the fire, the Sunblade Grass and Moonglow Glass have turned into a pure liquid again, he mixed it until he saw that it is that of a yellow liquid with a tint of grayish-blue.

After easily mixing it, Zhou Mengyao did the next part and last part which is also the hardest part. Removing the impurity of the blood essence is the hardest so his focus is at its peak.

There isn't anything that can break his focus.

As he puts the blood essence inside and lets the impurities be removed, with him having more mastery in the fire the temperature quickly became hotter.

Zhou Mengyao prepared himself since it is the highest temperature that he will have to endure but he somehow managed to get with it just like an uncomfortable feeling.

Not only is his mastery to fire higher but his resistance has also improved.

Even then, he still is in pain as it is unbearably hot but with a higher temperature, the rate of blood essence's impurities being removed is way too quick in comparison to earlier.

With more sweat dripping down on his face, Zhou Mengyao removed the impurities in the pill furnace as he saw that more and more impurities are leaving the blood essence until none are left.

The very dark red blood essence gained a little bit of a lighter color but it is still a dark red, it just became much more vibrant.

Seeing that there are no impurities left, he repeated the same process again and let the pill cool down for it to take shape.

After waiting for quite a while, Zhou Mengyao opened the lid and saw the familiar yellow pill with a dark red aura covering it.
