Progress

Following the Alchemy God Records, Xue Feng decided to follow the lightning refining method, Xue Feng could follow the flame method since he possesses the Yin-Yang Colored Flames, but he decided to go the lightning path because it is more difficult.

The higher the difficulty, the greater the result when mastered, that's what he thought, the lightning refining method is divided into several steps, the first step is to hold a cluster of lightning in the palm of your hands.

As simple as this sounds, it's actually not at all simple, the difficulty of holding a cluster of lightning passively in the palm of his hands is very difficult, the lightning is violent and very powerful, if the cultivator is not careful it can injure himself with his own attacks.

Following the records Xue Feng mobilized his Dou Qi from the lightning element to his right hand, the lightning seemed fierce and relentless, many crackling sounds could be heard, Xue Feng then used his soul power to shape his lightning into a small flame, just like alchemists usually do with their flames.

*crackling... rumble rumble*

"Damn! This is really hard, but what the hell."

Immediately the crackling sounds became louder and a few moments later several bangs occurred, this made Xue Feng retreat 4 meters from the place where he was, failing to shape his rays he was attacked by the rays and had to dodge them, which caused Xue Feng to frown and curse, but he still decided to continue.

Xue Feng then tried again, he channeled his thunder element Dou Qi to his right hand again, but this time he used more soul power, he wanted to try to force the lightning to mold into his palm.

*Sizzling... Bang... Boooom*

As a result the lightning revolted and exploded, but this time it was even stronger, as a result it threw Xue Feng against a wall.

"Cough Cough Cough... Dammit! I can't use force, either they obey me naturally or I get screwed... That sure hurt a lot, shit!"

Xue Feng who was coughing up blood got up from the ground complaining, but he understood something that could help him in the next attempt, and he did so.

Channeling his Dou Qi from the lightning element again into his hand, Xue Feng this time didn't try to control them, he just let them go naturally, he just circulated the Five Element Scriptures through his body, and to Xue Feng's surprise the lightning seemed more docile this time, they weren't fierce and destructive like before.

The Cultivator has full power over his elements, but that only when he has enough power to do so, in the case of lightning which is a naturally tyrannical element this happens, in addition Xue Feng was wrong to think that he could dominate lightning without help of the Five Elements Scriptures, he is currently too weak to trust his control, but this was quickly corrected.

A few moments later and there was a ball of lightning little bigger than a palm above Xue Feng's right hand, it was just a small, milky white ball, there were no crackling noises or anything else, at that moment the temperature of the place rose countless times , so many rays condensed into just one small ball had this result, this was the expected effect after all.

Seeing that the first step was reached, Xue Feng decided to go to the second step, the second step is to heat the cauldron without destroying it.

In the case of flames this is not very problematic, but for Xue Feng it is very easy to turn the cauldrons into dust with his lightnings, even if they are condensed harmoniously, the power of this cluster of lightnings is very great.

Xue Feng then tried these methods on some pots he had in his yard, some even looked like cauldrons due to their shape.

Xue Feng doesn't have a cauldron yet, but logically, if he can heat up a pot that is countless times more fragile than a cauldron, then he could finally buy a cauldron and various herbs to officially start his alchemy.

Xue Feng then started, he just threw a few waves of lightning from his cluster into one of the pots as sensibly as possible.

*boom*

The result was obvious, the pot exploded into dust, there is nothing different expected from the first attempt, Xue Feng was not discouraged, he just kept going.

*Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom*

"Shit, this seems harder than the previous step, this time I'm using the Five Element Scriptures from the beginning and nothing happens."

A few moments later and several small explosions were heard, all the pots Xue Feng tried to heat exploded, Xue Feng just complained before continuing.

*Boom Boom Boom Boom*

Xue Feng continued and more and more small explosions continued, out of his dozen pots only a dozen remained, Xue Feng felt a little disheartened and even planned to buy some ordinary cauldrons, even they were far superior to these simple pots.

*Sizzling Crackling Crackling*

After 10 more attempts when only two more pans were left something happened.

Instead of the pot being exploded, some very low crackling sounds were heard and his temperature rose several times, finally a success, but Xue Feng was exhausted and no longer had the energy to even jump for joy.

"Uhhr, finally this was really exhausting, I'm exhausted and totally empty... System, open the store and show me the first level recovery pills."

*Ding, as per the request of the host, these are all first grade pills.

Qi Recovery Pill, 1st grade, a pattern pill, can recover 25% of all your lost Qi in just one hour = 1500 System Points.

Body strengthening pill, first degree, a pattern pill, can strengthen your bones and muscles, limited to three per cultivator = 3500 System Points.

*Ding, informing the host, all pills in the system are of the perfect grade and with pill patterns corresponding to their respective levels.*

"Uhhr it's a little pricey, but okay, system give me a recovery pill."

*Ding, fulfilling the request of the host, Elemental Recovery Pill purchased, deducting 1500 system points, the purchased item was placed in the system space.*

After hearing the system notifications Xue Feng took the pill and popped it into his mouth, after which he sat in the lotus position and began to refine it.

Time passed slowly, as Xue Feng concentrated he realized that he could break whenever he wanted, his efforts in the last few days were not in vain, he had already touched the barrier to the next level but hadn't realized it due to his efforts in alchemy .

*breaking*

Suddenly, a crashing sound sounded, then Xue Feng's cultivation level began to rise.

Dou Zhe second star.

Dou Zhe third star.

Dou Zhe fourth star.

Dou Zhe fifth star.

In a few more hours and Xue Feng opened his eyes, he had stabilized his cultivation base in the fifth level Dou Zhe by advancing four levels in a row, this was due to having a lot of energy left in his body, in addition to his physique absorbing a lot of energy from the sky. and the earth at shocking speed.
