After confirming that Bai Li Hong Zhuang intended to attempt making an explosive on her own, Nan Gong Wu quietly stood aside and watched as Bai Li Hong Zhuang prepared for the task.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang gathered all the materials needed for making the explosive and started working on each step, from grinding to baking. Although she hadn't started making explosives under the guidance of the middle-aged man in the Chaotic Ring, she had witnessed his demonstrations a few times.
The middle-aged man had explained the process of making explosives to her in great detail, and she had carefully memorized everything. If she had continued her studies in the Chaotic World, she could have started making explosives by now. However, since her mentor had come to find her in the real world, she decided to give it a try here first. She believed that she would perform even better when she returned to the Chaotic Ring at night, especially considering the middle-aged man's formidable skills.
If she failed to make the explosive in the real world, she would face certain consequences. So, she wanted to try it out here first to avoid any physical or mental pain later.
The three spirit beasts quietly stayed by the side, naturally wanting to help their master. However, in the current situation, it was better for them to pretend not to know anything.
Nan Gong Wu had initially expected Bai Li Hong Zhuang to encounter some problems during the process of making the materials. Back when she first attempted making explosives, she had spent more time learning the art than Bai Li Hong Zhuang. Even though she had memorized all the steps, she still made numerous mistakes when she actually tried to perform them because there was always a difference between imagination and practical execution.
However, so far, Bai Li Hong Zhuang hadn't made any mistakes in her preparations, even though her movements were slower than Nan Gong Wu's. It was already excellent that she could avoid errors, and taking a bit more time was understandable. As she became more proficient, the time required would naturally decrease.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang remembered each step and proceeded methodically. This was partly due to her background as an alchemist and runemaster. She had already developed a meticulous character during her studies in these fields. She never became restless or impatient when doing anything, so even though it was her first time making explosives, she remained calm.
Finally, in the process of slowly preparing the materials, Bai Li Hong Zhuang had gathered all the necessary ingredients. The next step was to start making the explosive.
With that in mind, Bai Li Hong Zhuang couldn't help but close her eyes. Nan Gong Wu observed this action and couldn't help but be puzzled, unsure of what Bai Li Hong Zhuang was doing all of a sudden.
In contrast to Nan Gong Wu's confusion, the three spirit beasts seemed to understand. After following their master for so long, they had gained some understanding of her actions. They knew that Bai Li Hong Zhuang was organizing all the information in her mind, and she would only start working when she had a clear plan.
This situation also occurred when their master was refining higher-level pills. Bai Li Hong Zhuang closed her eyes and recalled the middle-aged man's process of making explosives. What she was about to make now was the simplest kind of explosive, with fewer materials and less complex steps.
