Chapter 341 - Refining The Primal Blood Awakening Pill

After finding a secluded spot in the periphery of the forest, Jiu Shen took out his Heaven Trampling Cauldron and asked for the ingredients from the Purple Feathered Flame Eagles.

After hearing that Jiu Shen wanted to refine the pill in this place, the leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle immediately commanded its tribe to hand over the gathered spiritual plants and flowers. Each one of these spiritual plants was precious, but none of them were at the Origin-rank, so procuring them wasn't difficult for the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle.

Jiu Shen sorted the spiritual plants given by the eagles and inspected them one by one. After careful scrutiny, Jiu Shen heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, the Purple Feathered Flame Eagles picked the correct spiritual plants and some of them seemed to be in good condition. Just that the Spiritcloud Ganoderma, an auxiliary ingredient for refining the Sky Breaking Pill, was in bad shape. From the looks of it, this stalk of Spiritcloud Ganoderma had been pulled carelessly.

Jiu Shen felt that it was a pity, but he did not blame the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle for this. He did not teach them how to pluck these spiritual plants and it was already a miracle for them to collect all the required ingredients. The Purple Feathered Flame Eagle must have plucked them in a hurry or some of these spiritual plants might have been guarded by powerful savage beasts.

"The poor birds must have lost a lot of their tribe members from this hunt, but it doesn't matter. After I refine the Primal Blood Awakening Pill for their leader, their tribe would become even stronger."

Jiu Shen placed his right hand on top of the spiritual plants and drew a mystical symbol in midair. The symbol lit up brilliantly and fell into the spiritual plants. Upon closer look, one would notice that when the symbol struck the spiritual plants, their properties had become noticeably better. The Spiritcloud Ganoderma which had the worse condition looked much better.

This was an enchanting technique that Jiu Shen created in his past life. It was capable of enhancing a spiritual plant's essence, making its condition better. This kind of technique was necessary for high-level alchemists since it was difficult to procure a spiritual plant of perfect condition especially after it reaches a certain level. Spiritual plants that had spirits were even more difficult to obtain and if one manages to luckily get one, their condition might not be perfect.

"Luckily I have the Spirit Cleansing Symbol or I might not be able to create a pill of great quality." Jiu Shen slapped the Heaven Trampling Cauldron and flicked a small dark obsidian flame towards the bottom of the cauldron. The dragon images on the cauldron lit up as if they were about to emit a terrifying roar.

"The first step of pill refining is Purification. This is the easiest step, but one still needs to be careful in handling the spiritual plants or all the medicinal properties from the plants might be gone." Jiu Shen did a strange hand gesture before slapping the cauldron. He then placed the spiritual plants inside the Heaven Trampling Cauldron and purified them all together.

If an alchemist was here to witness the scene, they would certainly suspect that Jiu Shen was a madman. Almost all the alchemists would purify the spiritual plants one by one and they were very careful in this process especially if they were handling high-level spiritual plants. However, Jiu Shen was actually purifying all of them in one go! If this wasn't an act of a madman then what would be? Nonetheless, Jiu Shen couldn't care less about the process of Purification. He even created his own purifying technique which made things easier for him in this process. Others would have to carefully do this step, but he can be willful here because of his purifying skills.

Not long later, all the spiritual plants inside the Heaven Trampling Cauldron were already purified to a perfect state. All the impurities in them have been removed and they can already be refined.

"The next step is the refining process. This step is very easy as well. Too bad my cultivation is low right now or I would have refined the Primal Blood Awakening Pill even without the help of the Heaven Trampling Cauldron. Anyway, time to refine the spiritual plants."

Jiu Shen leisurely refined the spiritual plants as he took out a bottle of wine from his space earring. He then used the other hand for refining and the other for holding the bottle of wine.

Alchemists would surely be gobsmacked by Jiu Shen's attitude. The refining of spiritual plants was never easy, but he dared to drink wine while doing this process. Perhaps only Jiu Shen had the guts to do this while refining a precious pill like the Primal Blood Awakening Pill.

The next step after the refining process was the pill formation. This part was the hardest and before Jiu Shen started this process, he kept his bottle of wine back to his space earring after taking one more sip.

The last step of the refining process is known as Pill Condensation. It wasn't a necessary step to do, but Jiu Shen knew that this step could improve the resulting pill's final condition.

A brilliance of rainbow light suddenly illuminated the area around Jiu Shen. This scene stunned the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle and they wondered what Jiu Shen did in his pill refining process that it actually created such a scene.

"A Profound State Sky Breaking Pill and there are ten pills created in just one set of ingredients. Not bad. Not bad." Jiu Shen muttered to himself after seeing the glowing pills inside the cauldron, but he did not take them out yet. This was just the Sky Breaking Pill. He still has to add the Scarlet Searing Fern into the cauldron and refine it together with the Sky Breaking Pill using a secret refining method.

Jiu Shen did not rest, he immediately grabbed the Scarlet Searing Fern and threw it inside the cauldron. He did not even bother to purify and refine it. He directly mixed the Scarlet Searing Fern with the ten Sky Breaking Pills.

Jiu Shen muttered a series of incomprehensible words and did a couple of hand gestures.

This process took about ten minutes before Jiu Shen opened his eyes. The area around him was once again enveloped by a rainbow radiance. The Purple Feathered Flame Eagles had already seen this earlier, so they weren't surprised this time.

"Sucess. It's as easy as I thought it was." He muttered as he grabbed the ten Primal Blood Awakening Pill inside the cauldron. The pills were still warm and they emitted a fragrant aroma of fresh fruits and flowers. He took one pill and kept the remaining nine for himself.

"Little bird, come here." Jiu Shen did a beckoning gesture to the leader of the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle.

Seeing this, the huge eagle was delighted and it immediately flew in front of Jiu Shen. A look of agitation and excitement can be seen in its birdy figure.

"Here. This is the Primal Blood Awakening Pill. Eat it and focus on absorbing the pill's energy." Jiu Shen carelessly tossed the pill to the huge eagle who immediately caught the pill with its mouth.

The pill had a lovely scent and the taste was also great, but the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle hurriedly focused itself on absorbing the pill's essence and energy.

Jiu Shen did not disturb the Purple Feathered Flame Eagle. He stared at the other eagles who were looking at their leader in anticipation. "Hey, little birdies, can I get the Purple Fire Crystal now?" Jiu Shen called out in a soft voice.

Although these eagles were not yet capable of human speech, they can still understand Jiu Shen's words, so they immediately gave him the Purple Fire Crystal. Their gaze towards Jiu Shen had also become warmer. They knew that from this moment, they would have to serve this human. If it was some other human expert, they would surely scoff at him in disdain, but this guy in front of them was different.

Jiu Shen stared at the Purple Fire Crystal in his hands with a calm look. It had a beautiful purple color and emitted a warm and fuzzy sensation. Jiu Shen kept it inside his space earring. With this crystal, the resulting wine he would brew would become even more delicious and valuable. Jiu Shen felt a hint of anticipation as he thought about it. "With my current level, I no longer need the Time and Space Chamber to brew wine. I can just manipulate the state of the wine with the use of some techniques." He muttered to himself.

Screeeecch!!

A loud and resonant cry suddenly reverberated, making the eagles around Jiu Shen fly in the air in surprise. They stared at their leader and discovered that its features had changed, but before they could even congratulate their leader, they suddenly heard the loud rumbling of thunder above them.

Jiu Shen stared at the skies with a calm look.. "It is breaking through to the Nascent God Realm."
