"Boom boom boom...
All the runes lit up on the furnace. Inside the furnace, multicolored divine light surged, as if countless beasts were roaring and roaring, trying to break free.
"Thanks to the pill furnace replacement. The original furnace was so powerful, it might have been shattered." Seeing that the Moon Melting Star Refining Furnace could still hold his ground, Long Chen gradually relaxed his anxious heart.
Long Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead. At this moment, his mind was extremely tense, and his soul power was greatly consumed.
In the past, the pills Long Chen refined were mostly made from plants, trees, and spiritual plants. This type of rare medicine was often gentle in nature.
However, the Purple Que Pill contains many rare herbs produced by ferocious beasts and spirit beasts, making the pill's medicinal properties especially potent. Inside the pill furnace, it feels as if countless wild beasts are fiercely battling and attacking each other.
To activate the pill's power, the Purple Que Pill needs to erase most of its fierce energy. If forcibly erased, it will cause the rare medicine to lose its vitality.
Therefore, letting them fight and consume each other until they wear down their fierce spirit is the best approach.
The furnace roared continuously, the roars echoing in waves, countless forces crashing wildly, as if neither side was willing to yield.
At first, countless forces were fiercely battling within the five-colored divine light. As time passed, the battle grew more intense, and some forces seemed to yield and be devoured.
In the end, only five forces remained, tangled wildly. After the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the five forces finally merged into one.
"Boom boom boom...
When the five forces converged, they formed a tremendous force that wildly crashed into the pill furnace. Long Chen pressed down on the furnace, afraid it would rush out and lose all his efforts. The immense force made Long Chen's arm go numb.
Long Chen couldn't help but feel shocked. The impact of this pill was almost equivalent to a powerful full-force strike at the late Divine Lord Realm.
The massive impact struck nine times in a row, especially the ninth. The tremendous force made the entire house tremble, and Long Chen nearly lost his composure.
After nine collisions, the furnace finally calmed down. Long Chen lifted the lid, and suddenly nine beams of divine light shot straight into Long Chen's eyes. In that instant, the deadly threat made Long Chen instinctively draw his long blade.
"Boom!"
With a loud explosion, the divine light shattered.
"Damn..."
Long Chen cursed angrily. After the slash, the divine light shattered, and fragments of pills filled the entire room. The freshly refined batch of pills was shattered by his single strike—everything was wasted.
Long Chen was so angry his face darkened. He had been so focused on celebrating that he had made a fatal mistake: forgetting that the grade of the pill was too high, which would generate spiritual power. Unwilling to be trapped, it would suddenly kill someone. This was something Long Chen often encountered in the late Mortal Realm.
But in the Immortal Realm, because the laws differ, pills cannot produce intelligence, so Long Chen forgot about this.
He hadn't expected the Purple Que Pill to develop a spiritual power and even kill him. Long Chen instinctively fought back, making all his efforts futile. What angered him most was that he hadn't even seen what those pills looked like.
Long Chen sat on the ground in anger, and it took a full hour to calm himself down before he began the second round of pill refining.
The second round of alchemy went much more smoothly than the first. Long Chen gained experience, and the Molten Moon Star Refining Furnace was prepared. Before coordinating, everything went very smoothly.
Soon, the second batch of pills was ready. This time, Long Chen was prepared. As the pills rushed out, he threw a punch at them.
With a loud explosion, the divine light shattered, and Long Chen's fist was drenched in blood. The pill's attack power was too strong, so when the pill hit Long Chen's vital eye just now, Long Chen instinctively struck with all his might.
This time, after the divine light shattered, the nine pills remained undamaged and remained suspended in the air.
Long Chen saw nine divine pills radiating divine light, crystal clear, each with a blooming lotus flower at its core.
On the lotus flower, there were some tiny spots. When Long Chen's mind immersed in them, it was as if he had entered a world.
This world is like a lotus flower, with purple energy swirling and immortal mist rising, inhabited by fierce beasts—none other than those from the pill formula.
But compared to this enormous lotus, they seemed so small. They survived in this world, and Long Chen even saw two fierce beasts fighting each other.
"One flower, one world."
Long Chen couldn't help but marvel at how terrifying the Purple Que Pill was, seemingly containing endless power. The purple immortal mist seemed to be the purest and most primal strand of immortal energy in the world.
"All are top-grade treasure pills. Perhaps because the rare medicines are of such high grade, they have such terrifying effects."
Long Chen had originally thought that having a top-grade elixir was already a great joy, but unexpectedly, the first time he refined it, all the pills were at the top-grade level.
After careful thought, the quality of the rare herbs, the alchemy techniques, and the power of the pill furnace—the combination of these three had led to such astonishing results.
Long Chen looked at the Purple Palace Pills, unable to put them down. It was the first time he had seen such beautiful pills. Each pill seemed to contain a world, and the feeling was simply wonderful.
However, Long Chen did not immediately swallow them. Instead, he sent them into the chaotic space, letting Lei Ling'er use the power of thunder to nourish them, turning them into tribulation pills, so that their effects could be maximized.
Because refining a batch of Purple Que Pills is indeed very labor-intensive, and rare beast-type medicines cannot be cultivated; using a little means a small amount. Who knows how much Zheng Wenlong will be able to obtain in the future? Long Chen must be careful and not rely entirely on others.
Long Chen refined pills every day, day and night without pause, refining for seven consecutive days. Although there were breaks in between, he still felt he was losing his patience.
However, in these seven days, he refined a thousand Purple Que Pills. Long Chen entrusted all of them to Lei Ling'er for nurturing, planning to take them once they had all become Tribulation Pills.
After arranging the pills, Long Chen returned to his residence and immediately fell asleep. He slept for a full three days and nights. Refining the Purple Que Pill consumed too much energy, and it took him three days to fully replenish the energy he had lost.
Now, ten full days had passed since the tribulation crossing. Although evil demons ran rampant outside, the academy's provisions were ample, and everyone could rest easy.
During this time, the warriors of the War God Hall even rushed out once to clear the battlefield. Last time, after the grand formation had wiped out countless evil demons, they went to retrieve the magic crystals.
Long Chen was very generous. The magic crystals they collected were considered their personal income and didn't have to be handed over to the Seventh Academy. These powerful figures couldn't help but marvel at Long Chen's generosity, allowing them to make a small fortune.
When Long Chen asked the disciples
about them, he was told that most were still asleep. He frowned, wondering if he had gone too far—he hadn't woken up after all this time.
"Long Chen"
Bai Shishi suddenly appeared. When Long Chen saw Bai Shishi, he was startled.
