88: Chapter 88 Top-Grade Qi-Nourishing Pill

Iron-Tailed Lizard ribs, three pieces.

The bone surface was grey-white, densely covered with natural earth-attribute spirit patterns; the spirit patterns radiated outward from the bone core, and a faint yellow halo could be seen at the fracture.

Jiang Yan preserved the natural spirit patterns within the bone, only embedding the Armor Piercing Restriction at the tip of the bone spur, and engraving an acceleration Restriction at the tail.

The finished bone spur was about a foot long, thick at the tail and sharp at the tip, with natural textures crisscrossing the surface; after injecting Qi, a pale yellow halo appeared on the bone surface.

Another one completed.

The red sun wood had a hard texture, and the grain spread outward from the wood core like flames.

He used a spirit-powered carving knife to shape the wood into a half-arm guard, polishing the inner side to be smooth and fit the curve of the forearm, while engraving a defense Restriction and a flame rebound Restriction on the outer side.

After the arm guard was activated, a pale red Qi shield unfolded on the outside of the arm—the shield face was hexagonal and translucent, and it would automatically rebound a flame shock when attacked.

The third piece was completed.

The three Medium Grade Magical Artifacts were lined up on the stone bed.

The heavy sword was dark green and thick, the bone spur was grey-white and sharp, and the arm guard was crimson and warm.

Jiang Yan checked the Restriction spirit light of the three Magical Artifacts one by one, confirmed that all circuits were running stably, and then put them into the Storage Pouch.

Fourth to sixth day.

Formation Plate upgrade.

He removed the octagonal fire-copper Formation Plate of the Li Fire Killing Array from the Immortal Cave defense system, opened the bottom plate, and exposed the fire jade array eye embedded in the center.

This Medium Grade fire jade had suffered some wear and tear during previous use.

Several extremely fine cracks appeared on the surface, extending inside the fire jade like ice cracks on porcelain.

Spirit fire wrapped around the fire jade, burning it until it was half-melted.

The fire jade slowly softened in the flames, turning from a solid state into a translucent gelatinous state, and the flowing crimson magma-like texture inside became clearer in the gelatinized state.

He ground the magma fire crystal into powder—the hardness of the magma fire crystal was far greater than that of the fire jade, and it made a creaking sound when ground; the powder was dark red, and every grain shone with a metallic luster under the reflection of the spirit fire.

The powder seeped into the half-melted fire jade bit by bit.

During the infiltration process, the cracks on the surface of the fire jade were filled—not repaired, but rather the powder of the magma fire crystal fused with the fire jade crystal again under high temperature, and the material on both sides of the cracks was melted into one.

The color of the fire jade turned from pale red to a deep dark red, and the flowing magma texture inside became thicker and brighter, like a molten lake churning in a volcanic crater.

Re-engraving the Formation patterns; the original seven Formation patterns were retained, and two new ones were added.

The fire-gathering Formation pattern could absorb all fire Qi within the range of the Formation into the array eye for recycling, greatly extending the duration.

The enemy-trapping Formation pattern added an invisible binding force field to the outside of the fire cover, so that the trapped target could not easily break free even if they hard-resisted the flame burning.

Reinforcing the bottom plate of the Formation Plate; he embedded five Spirit Stones on the back of the fire-copper bottom plate as backup energy—the Spirit Stones were embedded in reserved grooves, and a trigger Restriction was engraved on the edge of the grooves; when the array eye's Qi was exhausted, the backup energy would automatically activate, ensuring the Formation would not collapse immediately.

The moment all nine Formation patterns were activated, a layer of dark red flame light shield surged out from the Formation Plate.

The light shield was more solid than before, the color of the firelight changed from the original orange-red to a dark red close to blood, and the binding force field on the inside of the light shield made a very faint buzzing sound.

He embedded the Formation Plate into the Immortal Cave defense system.

He added a layer of Medium Grade concealment Formation on the outer layer—when Divine Sense scanned from the outside, the Immortal Cave's defense was only at the Medium Grade level.

But as long as someone forced their way in, the moment the concealment Formation shattered, the dark red fire cover of the Li Fire Killing Array would unfold from the inner layer.

Seventh to twelfth day.

Jiang Yan took out the purple cloud ganoderma.

A 400-year-old High Grade Spirit Medicine, the cap was the size of an adult's palm, and the surface was densely covered with annual ring-like circular patterns, one circle after another, with countless layers.

The flesh was thick, and a very rich medicinal fragrance could be smelled when brought close to the nose.

It was not the smell of dead wood and rotten leaves like ordinary ganoderma, but a cool, slightly chilly fragrance, like some kind of moss growing in the deep mountain snow.

Void Realm Alchemy method, using Divine Sense as a Cauldron and Qi as fire.

The purple cloud ganoderma floated in front of him, wrapped in spirit fire.

Gentle fire—the flame was only the size of a candle flame, and the pale blue flame licked the surface of the cap slowly; every time it licked, a trace of extremely fine dark purple liquid seeped out from the ganoderma flesh.

The liquid droplets floated in the air under the wrapping of Divine Sense, the surface flowing with a metallic luster, like melted amethyst.

poria slices were put into the spirit fire, medium fire—the golden flame burned the poria slices until they crackled, splitting into extremely fine golden yellow powder, and the powder gathered into a ball under the guidance of Divine Sense.

Gastrodia tubers were put into the spirit fire, gentle fire—amber-colored viscous medicinal liquid seeped out from the tubers, and the droplets hung below the tubers, trembling slightly.

angelica roots were put into the spirit fire, weak fire—the flame was only the size of a bean, and deep brown oily liquid slowly seeped out from the broken ends of the roots, emitting a strong and mellow bitter fragrance.

The four streams of medicinal liquid slowly approached each other in the Divine Sense Cauldron.

The poria powder was the first to integrate into the purple cloud ganoderma medicinal liquid—the golden yellow powder sank into the dark purple viscous droplets grain by grain, the color gradually changed from purple-black to purple-red, and the medicinal properties began to Fusion.

Then it was the gastrodia medicinal liquid.

The moment the amber viscous droplets came into contact with the purple-red medicinal liquid, the two streams of medicinal liquid repelled each other, rolling and colliding within the wrapping of Divine Sense, and bubbles constantly bulged on the surface of the medicinal liquid and were crushed.

Jiang Yan controlled the spirit fire temperature to rise slightly, the acidity and alkalinity gradually neutralized under high temperature, and the medicinal liquid returned to calm.

Finally, it was the angelica medicinal liquid.

The deep brown oily liquid slowly seeped into the fused medicinal liquid, the color of the medicinal liquid changed from purple-red to deeper, and finally stabilized at purple-black.

Pill condensation.

The medicinal liquid shrank rapidly under the wrapping of Divine Sense, from the size of a fist to the size of a pigeon egg, and a pill membrane began to solidify on the surface.

The first embryonic pill was formed—the pill membrane glowed with a warm luster under the infusion of Qi, and the medicinal liquid inside flowed steadily—the first one was completed.

The second embryonic pill followed closely, and when the pill membrane solidified, extremely fine pill patterns appeared on the surface, extending spirally from the top of the pill to the bottom—the second one was completed.

When the third embryonic pill was formed, a very fine vibration suddenly appeared inside the medicinal liquid.

The vibration spread outward from the center of the embryonic pill, and dense bubbles appeared on the surface of the pill membrane.

Jiang Yan immediately increased the pressure of his Divine Sense to try to stabilize it—but it was a moment too late, the embryonic pill disintegrated before the pill was formed, and the purple-black medicinal liquid splattered out and was burned to ashes by the spirit fire.

He withdrew the spirit fire, blew away the ashes, did not stop, and started again.

During the second pill condensation, he slowed down the injection speed of the purple cloud ganoderma medicinal liquid by 30%.

The poria powder had more time to neutralize the coldness, and the Fusion of the medicinal liquid was much smoother than the first time.

No bubbles appeared again during pill condensation, and several embryonic pills were formed in turn—the pill membrane was as smooth as a mirror, the pill patterns flowed, and the medicinal fragrance was restrained.

Seven High Grade peiyuan pills were completed.

The remaining auxiliary medicines were combined with the red blood ganoderma brought back from the Manghuang Mountains, and ten more High Grade peiyuan pills were refined.

The pill patterns of the ten Medicinal Pills were one level lighter than the High Grade ones, but the medicinal power was still pure.

Seventeen peiyuan pills were put into two jade bottles, and the pills collided at the bottom of the bottles, making a crisp clinking sound.
