He had decided to make the pill once more, so he cleaned the cauldron of any remaining byproducts from the previous pill. He then waited for the cauldron to reach the right temperature and poured in his first ingredient.
Once again, he could feel the energy released from the first ingredient.
'So, this is what a water elemental energy feels like huh,' he thought.
After a while, he put in the second ingredient. When the ingredient started burning into powder and its energy getting released, he realized the energy behind it was actually weaker when compared to the first energy.
'So, the water-energy is stronger than the fire, so according to the theory, the water should either regulate the fire or totally destroy it. Given the current situation, the fire energy will probably be destroyed, right?' he thought.
He watched as the water-energy quickly envelope the fire energy, and destroy it completely— or so he thought was what happened.
