Immortality Cultivation

Returning from the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, Fang Hao clutched the freshly acquired jade marrow ganoderma and golden sap fruit as if he were holding two gold nuggets; he was absolutely delighted!

As soon as he returned to the small courtyard of the Listening to Rain Pavilion, he shut the door, fully activated the Formation, and impatiently took out all the medicinal Materials, spreading them across the floor of the quiet room.

golden sap fruit, jade marrow ganoderma, Millennium Stone Milk, purple monkey flower, Earth Core Flame Lotus... there were over a dozen medicinal Materials in total, each exuding intense Spiritual Qi and a pungent medicinal fragrance.

In particular, the three golden golden sap fruits with natural cloud patterns on their skins, and that stalk of jade marrow ganoderma which was white and lustrous like jade and warm to the touch, were clearly not ordinary items!

He had spent a significant amount of Spirit Stones to gather these; counting the auxiliary medicines, he had poured nearly two hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones into it!

An ordinary Golden Core Cultivator would have been bankrupted by this!

Damn it, Alchemy really is a money-burning profession!

Fang Hao smacked his lips in pain, but then he thought, as long as he could refine High Grade golden spirit pills, this investment was absolutely worth it!

A single High Grade golden spirit pill sold for at least one hundred thousand Spirit Stones outside; by refining it himself, he could keep the cost under ten thousand—a massive profit!

He did not rush to start.

A Grade 4 Medicinal Pill was not some common item like a Grade 3 one; the difficulty of refining it was more than doubled!

The heat, the timing, and the Fusion of medicinal properties—a slight deviation would lead to a massive error!

Blowing up the cauldron was a minor matter, but if he wasted these hard-to-obtain medicinal Materials, he would be heartbroken to death!

Fang Hao sat cross-legged, first taking out the Jade Slip containing the Pill Formula for the golden spirit pill, then studying it meticulously word by word several times, engraving every step and every detail into his mind.

Then, he closed his eyes, activated the Ethereal Art, and began to simulate the Alchemy process within his Sea of Consciousness.

He seemed to see the chaos pill cauldron floating in the air, and the Earth Core Flame Fire dancing at his fingertips.

He saw himself cautiously adding the purple monkey flower, controlling the flames to refine it into a purple medicinal liquid; he then saw himself adding the Earth Core Flame Lotus to temper the dryness in the medicinal properties; next was the Millennium Stone Milk, used to neutralize and nourish... each auxiliary medicine was refined, purified, and fused according to a strict order and heat.

The entire process was as smooth as flowing water, without the slightest error.

Finally, it was time for the crucial main ingredients!

The jade marrow ganoderma was added first, turning into a pool of milky-white, pure medicinal liquid that emitted a cool aura under the gentle flames.

Then came the golden sap fruit, which was the hardest to refine!

This fruit contained pure metal-element Spiritual Qi that was overbearing and fierce; if he lost control for even a moment, it would clash with the previous medicinal liquid, causing all his previous efforts to be wasted!

Fang Hao saw himself holding his breath, driving the flames to their limit, instantly enveloping the golden sap fruit with high heat to forcibly refine it!

At the same time, his Divine Sense was highly concentrated, guiding the violent metal-element medicinal liquid to slowly fuse into the previously prepared medicinal liquid.

The moment they made contact, the energy inside the pill cauldron fluctuated violently, as if it were about to explode!

He saw himself steadying his mind, precisely controlling the flames, and using the cool medicinal properties of the jade marrow ganoderma and the nourishing effects of the Millennium Stone Milk to slowly grind away the sharpness of the metal-element Spiritual Qi, making it perfectly fuse with the overall medicinal properties!

The Fusion was a success!

The medicinal liquid turned into a brilliant golden-white color, slowly rotating.

Finally, it was time for Pill Condensation!

The flames turned from fierce to gentle, and his Divine Sense turned into invisible hands, dividing and compressing the medicinal liquid, condensing it into round pill embryos.

Under the gentle heat, the pill embryos gradually solidified, with faint cloud patterns appearing on their surfaces and the medicinal fragrance becoming contained...

It failed!

In the first simulation, at the final moment of Pill Condensation, a slight fluctuation in heat caused the pill embryos to shatter, resulting in total failure.

Fang Hao was not discouraged; he summarized his experience, adjusted the details, and started over!

In the second simulation, when fusing the main ingredients, his Divine Sense guidance was half a beat too slow, the medicinal properties clashed, and it exploded!

The third time, the fourth time...

He tirelessly simulated it in his Sea of Consciousness, starting over whenever he failed, constantly adjusting his techniques and optimizing the process.

He did not know how many times he had simulated it, but until he felt that the entire Alchemy process was ingrained in his heart and every detail had reached perfection, with a success rate of over ninety percent, he finally slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes shone with a sharp light, full of confidence!

It’s time!

Fang Hao took a deep breath and adjusted his state to the best.

He slapped his Dantian, a black light flashed, and that ancient and mysterious chaos pill cauldron, exuding an aura of Chaos, slowly flew out and hovered in the center of the quiet room.

As soon as the pill cauldron appeared, the surrounding Spiritual Qi became a bit more active.

Then, with a flick of his finger, a wisp of pale purple Earth Core Flame Fire, which looked weak but emitted a terrifyingly high temperature, whistled out and landed at the bottom of the pill cauldron.

Hum!

The pill cauldron vibrated slightly, and the inside was instantly filled with pure purple flames, the temperature rising sharply!

Start the furnace!

Fang Hao shouted in a low voice, his eyes as sharp as knives.

His hands moved like butterflies through flowers, so fast that they left afterimages, precisely adding the prepared auxiliary medicines into the cauldron in the order he had simulated countless times.

His Divine Sense was like the most precise tentacle, closely monitoring the subtle changes in each medicinal material as it melted and purified under the burning of the Earth Core Flame Fire.

Reduce the heat by one part! The dew-condensing grass is liquefying too quickly!

Add the Earth Core Flame Lotus! Increase the heat to force out the Impurities!

Millennium Stone Milk, simmer on low heat, fuse!

He was fully concentrated and did not even have time to wipe the fine beads of sweat seeping from his forehead.

The Fusion of the auxiliary medicines in the early stages went quite smoothly.

When it was the turn of the main ingredients, the atmosphere suddenly became tense!

Add the jade marrow ganoderma!

The lustrous white ganoderma was thrown into the fire, the temperature inside the cauldron dropped sharply, and the flames flickered.

Fang Hao stabilized the heat and slowly refined it.

Add the golden sap fruits!

The three golden fruits were added, and the violent metal-element Spiritual Qi erupted instantly!

The energy inside the cauldron fluctuated violently, the golden and white medicinal liquids clashed crazily, and it looked like it was about to go out of control!

Steady!

Fang Hao gritted his teeth, his Divine Sense tightly controlling the heat, guiding the cool medicinal power of the jade marrow ganoderma to wrap around it.

At the same time, he activated the Chaos Derivation Art, and a trace of Chaos Qi quietly merged into the medicinal liquid, harmonizing Yin and Yang!

Under the soothing effect of the Chaos Qi, the violent metal-element Spiritual Qi gradually calmed down and slowly fused with the other medicinal liquids!

The entire process was extremely dangerous; Fang Hao’s Mental Energy was consumed massively, his face turned pale, but his hands were as steady as a rock!

Finally, all the medicinal power fused perfectly, turning into a brilliant golden-white viscous liquid, slowly rotating inside the cauldron!

Pill Condensation!

A brilliant light erupted in Fang Hao’s eyes, and the speed of his hand seals increased explosively!

He cast one mysterious Pill Condensation seal after another!

Hum—!

The chaos pill cauldron vibrated violently, and the liquid inside, under the compression of the seals and flames, rapidly shrank and divided into twelve small dots, spinning around!

A rich medicinal fragrance permeated the air!

Draw the pills!

Fang Hao did not dare to be negligent and performed the final technique!

The cauldron lid opened, and twelve golden-white streams of light shot into the sky as if summoned!

Fang Hao had been prepared long ago; he waved the jade bottle in his hand, and a suction force was emitted, precisely collecting all twelve pills—each the size of a dragon’s eye, round and flawless, with clear cloud patterns on the surface and emitting a brilliant treasure light—into the bottle!

The pills in his hand were warm and heavy, containing pure Spiritual Qi as vast as the sea!

They were all High Grade golden spirit pills!

Success! Twelve pills! All High Grade!

Holding the jade bottle, Fang Hao was so excited that his hands were trembling!

Success on the first try!

And it was the highest quality, a full furnace of twelve High Grade pills!

This success rate, no one would believe it if he told them!

Immense joy and a sense of accomplishment overwhelmed him!

He carefully put away the jade bottle as if he were holding a peerless treasure.

With these twelve High Grade golden spirit pills, his Middle Golden Core Stage cultivation would definitely be able to reach a higher level!

There was even great hope of breaking through to the Late Stage!

After resting and adjusting his breath for a while, recovering some Mental Energy, Fang Hao looked at the remaining medicinal Materials, his heart itching.

Refining one furnace is the same as refining two!

Strike while the iron is hot and refine the remaining Materials too!

He started the furnace again; with the successful experience of the first time, the second furnace was even more handy.

Although there was a small flaw when condensing the pills at the end due to excessive consumption of Mental Energy, he still successfully refined ten pills, of which eight were High Grade and two were Medium Grade!

Haha! A great harvest!

Looking at the two full jade bottles, Fang Hao was overjoyed.

Twenty-two golden spirit pills were enough for him to use for a long time!

He happily put away the pills and cleaned the pill cauldron.

This Alchemy session not only yielded the urgently needed pills, but his control over the chaos pill cauldron and the Earth Core Flame Fire also became more proficient, and his Alchemy skills faintly showed a trend of breaking through to the Middle Grade of Grade 4!

Strength is the hard truth!

With these pills, I will go into seclusion for a period of time to break through to the Late Golden Core Stage!

Fang Hao’s eyes were burning with anticipation.

In this Heavenly Capital, without strength, it is difficult to move an inch!

Princess Mu Yijing’s attitude was unclear, and the Sun Family was eyeing him covetously; he must improve himself as soon as possible.
