After that, Feng Wu went back to the refinement room.
Maybe her prayer worked, because she felt much calmer this time.
She added the precise amount of ingredients into the furnace.
She was acutely aware of when the ingredients took effect.
Her calculations had never been so fast when she combined the ingredients.

Maybe her beautiful master had blessed her, because the refinement lasted until the fourth day.
Feng Wu had gotten very little sleep during the past ten days.
She was exhausted, but her eyes were surprisingly bright.
They reminded one of the sky outside.
She had reached the final moment.
All the dregs had been filtered, and the dense liquid was about to condense into a pill.
This was the critical moment.
Emperor Wu was already outside.
Master Chu and Master Gao were by his side.
All their eyes were on the door of the refinement room.
