Chapter 37
Most of the herbs that creates the Core Fortifying Pill are from mortal cla.s.s herbs that can easily be obtained and purchased using gold.
The instructions in the pill formula seems easy to understand. That's what he initially thought. Reading is easier than doing what is written.
Placing all the herbs on the furnace after purification, he carefully released his spiritual energy. Making sure all the instructions on the pill formula is followed.
The purification level that he can attain before is eighty five percent. Herbs are purified or cleansed using spiritual energy. The higher the percentage the more effective the pill is.
He can feel Gao Lan Mei observing her. Being nervous will not help him, the task must be completed.
Holding his breath, he started to mix the three herbs placed on the pill furnace gradually using his spiritual energy.
Making sure his concentration did not waiver, the herbs are made to twirl inside the furnace to mix together.
Preparing to add the remaining three herbs, he intended to increase his spiritual energy, "Do not increase your spiritual energy.
Xiao Jun did not question. He long trusted the young miss. Continuing to use the same level of spiritual energy, all remaining herbs are added and where ground finely inside the furnace.
With brows sweating, he proceeds to the final stage. This is the stage where all herbs will combine to hold to form the pill. This is also the stage that he was never able to complete before.
Gulping, he glanced at Gao Lan Mei, who waived her hand as a signal for him to continue. He checked the enchanted fire stone under the furnace to check the fire.
The blue fire from the blue enchanted stone, is still light and does not show any sign that it will quench soon. The little brown sparrow is also near the furnace, like waiting for something.
Probably waiting for him to fail?
Heaving a deep breath, he refocused on the herbs that are still mixing inside the furnace.
Little by little, he increased his spirit energy to hold all the herbs. Calming his anxious nerves by doing slow breathing, he was able to relax.
The herbs were forming into a small pieces of round pill. His eyes brightened, when he sees the green pills formed, he immediately increased the spiritual energy to completely hold it together.
After increasing the released spiritual energy, he can see the pills starting to hold shape, but suddenly from the furnace, the smell of burn surfaced. "Bang" Then the pills softly explodes inside the furnace.
The originally forming green pills, is now black in color. "What went wrong?" Xiao Jun blurted. He clearly saw them forming, before sending more spiritual energy, he made sure that the pills are slightly formed already.
Gao Lan Mei grabbed one pill from the furnace and smelled it.
The black pill smells like burn but there is still a strong scent of herbs with potent spiritual energy.
"Failed," She said, then she grabbed a small knife to slice the black pill in half. The inside of the pill is bright green. "but not completely a waste."
