Chapter 1154: Successful Pill Refinement, Beginning Seclusion (Part 1)

Editor: Henyee Translations

The Nine-Turn Scarlet Fire Pill, as its name implies, requires the simultaneous control of nine different celestial flames for its refinement.

This foundational step, bringing together the nine flames within the furnace, is the critical threshold for crafting this pill.

Even with Jiang Chengxuan’s alchemical prowess, he paused briefly to adjust his state before absorbing the flames from the third furnace.

Under the tense watch of Zhou Xuanyu and Lan Yu’s group, Jiang Chengxuan exerted both hands simultaneously, one to suppress the flames within the Mountain and Sea Furnace, and the other to draw in the flames from the distant furnaces.

With a hum, three more flames, imbued with the aura of the Immortal Domain, were drawn into a fine stream by Jiang Chengxuan’s immortal energy, entering the Mountain and Sea Furnace.

As soon as the nine celestial flames converged within the furnace, a series of explosive booms resonated, and a terrifying vortex of fire burst forth, engulfing the area.

The combined power of the nine celestial flames was immensely formidable. Even Zhou Xuanyu and his companions, seasoned alchemists accustomed to dealing with flames, couldn’t help but gasp and s.h.i.+eld themselves with their immortal energy against the residual heat.

Yet, Jiang Chengxuan remained unflinching, continuously channeling his immortal energy to subdue the chaotic flames.

In his hands, the flames seemed like serpents caught by their tails, writhing chaotically yet unable to harm him. Each arc of fire that crossed the void was skillfully controlled, not touching Jiang Chengxuan at all.

This spectacle left Zhou Xuanyu and the others in awe, their admiration for Jiang Chengxuan growing.

They sensed Jiang Chengxuan’s strategy: letting the flames expend some of their energy before subduing them in one decisive move.

Indeed, after the flames had raged for a while, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes sharpened. His robe billowed as he roared, fully activating the power of the Mountain and Sea Furnace and manifesting the Fire Dao of the Five Elements in the void.

Under this dual suppression, along with Jiang Chengxuan’s fire control techniques, the flames began to be contained.

It was as if an invisible net captured the flames, forcing them back into the furnace. Occasionally, a few bright sparks escaped, but the situation was firmly under control.

“Excellent! Excellent!” Zhou Xuanyu exclaimed, laughing heartily. He knew Jiang Chengxuan’s reputation was well-deserved, possessing the incredible ability to control nine celestial flames.

“Brother Chengxuan, your skills are truly admirable,” Lan Yu and the others echoed, deeply impressed.

With the most challenging step overcome, Jiang Chengxuan showed a satisfied expression but chose not to rest.

He immediately activated the storage ring, releasing various celestial herbs to float in the air, emitting a soft glow.

Once a.s.sured that the flames within the furnace were completely subdued, Jiang Chengxuan employed the Flame Striking Technique, transforming the nine different flames into nine fiery spears that collided within the furnace, creating a dazzling display of sparks.

The temperature within the Mountain and Sea Furnace reached its peak, with the nine flames occupying distinct areas, burning fiercely.

“Go!” Jiang Chengxuan commanded, waving his hand.

The floating celestial herbs transformed into glowing meteors, sequentially entering the furnace.

As the flames made contact with the herbs, a series of mystical ripples spread through the s.p.a.ce. Under the watchful eyes of Zhou Xuanyu and his companions, time pa.s.sed slowly.

The continuous burning of the nine flames began to refine the celestial herbs into pure medicinal essence, gathering into a cohesive ma.s.s.

For Jiang Chengxuan, this step was well-practiced and unlikely to fail. However, refining celestial herbs was inherently a prolonged process, especially with the resilient nature of the herbs needed for the Nine-Turn Scarlet Fire Pill.

Despite the intense flames, the refining process was painstakingly slow.

As Jiang Chengxuan worked, a hundred years slipped by. Eventually, the pure essence of the celestial herbs filled the area with a dense, vibrant immortal energy, signaling the completion of this crucial step.

Seeing the refined essence before the Mountain and Sea Furnace, Jiang Chengxuan let out a deep breath.

For a first attempt, reaching this stage was already a remarkable success. Even if he failed later, the experience gained would save a significant amount of time in future attempts.

However, Jiang Chengxuan had no intention of failing. Clearing his mind, he adjusted his breath for a moment. With a serious expression, he unleashed his immortal energy, manifesting the rules of the Five Elements, Life and Death, and Samsara.

The power of these three rules enveloped the refined essence within the furnace, stabilizing the rules imbued within the medicinal essence.
