Chapter 24 :- Concocting Body tempering Liquid

The Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis consisted of 3 big stages, one of which was the Stars Tyrannical Body that was divided into—Vitality Tempering, Skin Strengthening, Flesh Strengthening, Bone Transformation, Meridian Transformation, Marrow Transformation, Viscera Transformation, Blood and Qi Circulation, and Nine Core Phase Forming.

Yang Kai was now still at the Vitality Tempering phase. Since the Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis had to temper the body first, that meant he needed to concoct Body Refining medicament that was comprised of a Millenium soul Beast's blood's essence, internal organs, and flesh. The medicament also needed Star Spirit Grass, Poisonous Demon Cane, Green Jade Stone Essence, and other materials.

In particular, the fresher the Soul Beast's blood's essence, internal organs, and flesh, the better the medication's efficacy. This was why Yang Kai was impatient to seek for a place to close up and cultivate after he killed the serpent and other Millenium year soul beasts , rather than wait for 2 months after the entering the Junior soul master academy and slowly temper his body again.

In an orderly procedure, the Star Spirit Grass and the Poisonous Demon Cane also must be cleaned and grounded along with the Green Jade Stone Essence into powder. Then, yang Kai also had to wash the python's internal organs and flesh several times before carefully putting these ingredients into certain proportions.

While doing that, Yang Kai also had to boil the already long frozen python's blood essence in the cauldron.

Yang Kai tightly stared at the boiled python's blood essence as he put the Star Spirit Grass and Green Jade Stone Essence powder into it.

Along with the Star Spirit Grass and Green Jade Stone Essence powder being blended, the previously red-colored blood quickly changed, as the stench that filled the air gradually faded. The blood's color then quickly turned into a deep blue color as white specks could be faintly seen amongst the mixture, as if the vast blue sky was being painted with countless stars.

When the stench in the air had completely disappeared, Yang Kai put in the serpent's internal organs and meat into the mixture as he also took out the Poisonous Demon Cane he had prepared.

Although the Poisonous Demon Cane was named as a cane, but the fact was that it was extremely hard, just like an iron stick.

The moment after he took the Poisonous Demon Cane out, Yang Kai's face turned extremely solemn, because he knew that the stirring speed would directly affect the success or failure in concocting this Body Refining Liquid.

Concocting Body Refining Liquid also required an extremely high degree of control and concentration. The slightest carelessness would create an accident and/or explosion.

Although Yang Kai had prepared several materials for the Body Refining Liquid including the blood essence and meats of several Millenium soul beasts and the cave's location was also quite isolated, so he didn't have to worry that an explosion would attract onlookers… But Yang Kai didn't want to experience the feeling of failure.

While Yang Kai was still stirring the mixture, the hard internal organs and lumped meat gradually softened as it turned into juice and then blended into the liquid. The most bizarre sight was that the Poisonous Demon Cane in Yang Kai hand was as if it was being gnawed at since it became a little thinner than before.

"If there was an alchemist assistant, I wouldn't have to do such a trifling and boring thing like this." When Yang Kai was still stirring, a wish crossed his mind.

Because this was his first time concocting Body Refining Liquid, Yang Kai was quite nervous.

Slowly, after Yang Kai got used to it, his mind began to loosen as he became absent-minded.

In an almost unconscious state, all kinds of pictures when he was in the 3000 World emerged in Yang Kai's mind. For a moment in this dreamland, he couldn't even tell whether he was in the present modern era or when he was living 8,000 years ago in the 3000 World.

While Yang Kai was still drowned in his imagination, a yellow bubble suddenly gushed out from the boiler as an unbearable stench suddenly filled the air in the house.

"Holy crap, it's going to explode!" Yang Kai shouted loudly when he saw that the boiler suddenly turned into a big bubble. He rushed outside the cave without hesitation.

The split moment when Yang Kai had just left the cave , a loud explosion sounded. All the previous efforts Yang Kai had made were destroyed.

After having spent less than half an hour to clean up the residues, Yang Kai began to start the second concocting process again.

Having learned from the first lesson, Yang Kai didn't dare to have any stray thoughts again as he completed every step in a meticulous manner.

Only when the Poisonous Demon Cane in Yang Kai's hands became smaller did Yang Kai's thought strayed again. The boiler then exploded without exception.

"No, the problem is not because of me. It should be because of this Poisonous Demon Cane!" In the first attempt, Yang Kai felt that he wasn't careful. But for the second attempt, Yang Kai's mind was only distracted for a moment as to figure out where the problem was.

Yang Kai took out a knife and scraped a layer of powder on the tip of Poisonous Demon Cane.

At the next moment, mixed and various images from the Immortal World uncontrollably gushed out and filled Tang Xiu's mind.

"No wonder The Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis said that concocting the Body Refining Liquid is very difficult, and the success rate is very low. It turns out that it's not because it's difficult to control one's feelings in the concocting process, but rather that the hallucinatory effect caused by the Poisonous Demon Cane is really hard to guard against."

When Yang Kai wanted to start the third concocting attempt, he saw the remaining materials on the floor, causing him to become cautious.

"Though my knowledge sea is sealed now, the seven colors soul warming lotus will help me stabilize my mind. "

After he hypothesized the concocting process in his mind, Yang Kai analyzed each stage that the boiler had the possibility to explode at.

In the next moment, Yang Kai scraped a layer of powder down from the Poisonous Demon Cane again and directly applied it onto his own skin.

There was no accident at first. Then, Yang Kai's mind got distracted again.

"Fortunately, I promptly thought about this possibility. Otherwise, it would have wasted more materials. This Poisonous Demon Cane is really too powerful. It can permeate into the human skin's pores and affect people's thoughts." A trace of fear was revealed from Yang Kai's complexion as he looked at the iron stick in his hand.

Although Yang Kai could be said to have reached the peak in alchemy and pills' concocting in his past incarnation, but he didn't dare to boast that he knew everything about the raw materials for medicines. This Poisonous Demon Cane was precisely one of the herbs he hadn't known of yet. He could only seek it out through the aid from looking at its picture that was recorded on the prescription above the Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis's record.

The respective materials and ingredients needed to concoct the Body Refining Liquid were written above the Breathing Practice line in the Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis's record. However, there was no information about each material's properties on it.

It was quite fortunate that Yang Kai was very familiar with most of the materials. The one that he had yet to know was only the Poisonous Demon Cane.

Had it been others that were blindly concocting the Body Refining Liquid, it could be said that that person would possibly fail hundreds of times. It was because any slightest error would lead to failure in concocting the Body Refining Liquid.

Even if it were Yang Kai, he was also unable to say that he would have a 100% rate of successfully concocting the Body Refining Liquid. He was only a bit familiar with the Poisonous Demon Cane's property. Yang Kai believed that if he were to completely understand the Poisonous Demon Cane's properties, he could guarantee that he would be successful in concocting the Body Refining Liquid.

In the next few hours, Yang Kai did not rush to concoct the Body Refining Liquid and instead repeatedly researched the Poisonous Demon Cane diligently. Only after another hour did Yang Kai believe that he had completely grasped the Poisonous Demon Cane's nature and began to concoct the medicinal liquid again.

Boiling the bloods' essence…

Putting in Star Spirit Grass and Green Jade Ore Essence powder…

Putting in internal organs and flesh…

Stirring…

Holding one's breath…

Closing the pores…

Shielding off the five senses…

Doing all the steps in thorough and orderly procedures…

****

Time passed by unknowingly.

Yang Kai's mind and heart completely hung in the air, undisturbed and fiercely thumping.

Suddenly, a crackling sound sounded from the Poisonous Demon Vine in his hand, causing his heart to slow down by half a beat. In an almost unsubconscious state, Yang Kai opened his eyes.

The medicinal liquid in the boiler had turned into a golden color as it also exuded an exotic and refreshing fragrance.

"Have I succeeded?" While looking sluggishly at the medicine liquid for a moment, he found that the fear for it to explode didn't happen. The medicinal liquid color was exactly the same with the record, causing Yang Kai's eyes to burn with a boiling and hot light.

Yang Kai hadn't noticed that his clothes had been completely drenched in sweat at this moment, as beads of sweat had also permeated on his forehead. He was just like someone that had been drowned and just got fished out from the water.
