Supreme Martial God

Everything from the Pill Master were all worth a lot, and it was very likely that someone would set their eyes on them. Zheng Wan had already gotten used to it, even here, she would still lock the doors when she went out.    

    

She did not suspect Gao Huai and the others, but since women were cautious, once they got used to it, it would be hard to change them.    

    

Zheng Wan walked over to open the door, and the two of them entered the pill room. Inside was a space of approximately fifteen meters, with a small cabinet at the very end, inside which were Spirit Grasses. In the middle, there was a seven to eight foot tall, short pill furnace that was about two to three feet wide.    

    

The furnace had sparse engravings on it, it was a talisman formation to strengthen the furnace. The cauldron had three legs, and the legs were quite tall, making it easier to burn fire to refine pills.    

    

On a small wooden table beside the furnace, there was a pill tray. Three gray, lightless, mottled Spirit Pill s were placed on top, and a faint fragrance mixed with the burnt smell was transmitted to Lin Yue's nose.    

    

Obviously, those were refined Spirit Pill.    

    

"I'm going to start concocting pills." Zheng Wan reminded. She walked to a small cabinet in the room, grabbed some medicine and started to mash it.    

    

"Do you need my help?"    

    

"You can't move recklessly, the Pill Master's knowledge is deep, if it were to be broken even a little, you will fail. You just have to stand obediently by the side and watch.    

    

Zheng Wan puffed up her well-developed chest, and a pride unique to Pill Master appeared on her face. As a Pill Master, the little girl was very arrogant.    

    

Seeing Zheng Wan using her toes to draw a circle on the ground, Lin Yue could only laugh bitterly and stand inside, just like a primary school student who was punished by a female teacher. She closed her mouth and did not speak, only watching Zheng Wan bustling around.    

    

Grab the medicine, dispense the medicine, mash it, add in the special auxiliary medicine, slowly pour the herbs into the standard pill grinder, then turn on the furnace and put the mold in.    

    

Zheng Wan was very careful in every step, but that pair of nimble little hands was not slow in the slightest. It was as nimble as a juggling technique, and even Lin Yue, who was watching by the side, found it pleasing to the eyes.    

    

"The medicine has been applied. Now, all that's left is to ignite the fire and refine the pill." Zheng Wan wiped the sweat off her forehead, then used her hands to take out a few beast cores and placed it under the furnace.    

    

The beast core had a wide range of uses. It could be used for decorations, as well as for protective gear and for medicinal ingredients. However, it was still a good fuel for most Pill Master.    

    

The beast core contained the essence of the Demonic Beast, and was extremely resistant to heat. Furthermore, the temperature of its flame was higher than that of the plants, making it easier to adjust.    

    

Zheng Wan ignited the beast core, and used the fan to lightly fan it. A light blue flame instantly appeared, it was extremely quiet, and there was no smoke.    

    

Every once in a while, she would extend her hand to turn the furnace, allowing it to feel a more uniform temperature.    

    

After the time it takes to burn an incense stick, a faint fragrance wafted out from the steam hole in the pill furnace. The fragrance filled the air, causing one to feel refreshed.    

    

However, Zheng Wan was still extremely nervous, as if she had met a great enemy. Her hands were no longer as nimble as before, but rather, her palms and forehead started to drip with sweat.    

    

The fragrance gradually turned thicker, and then, strands of green aura started to seep out from the single hole. Zheng Wan's heart also started to beat faster.    

    

Holding his breath, he did not dare to breathe out. Even Lin Yue beside him could not help but be infected by Zheng Wan's emotions and became a little nervous.    

    

In the midst of the silence, there was suddenly a crisp sound from the cauldron. It seemed to be the sound of something exploding.    

    

In the blink of an eye, the originally pure green light's fragrance turned gray as strands of the burnt smell enveloped the pill room.    

    

"Pa Da."    

    

The fan in Zheng Wan's hand powerlessly fell to the ground as she stood up with a pale face. Her eyes were slightly red and her tensed expression relaxed, but a deep sense of loss rose up her brows.    

    

These days, every time she refined a pill to this stage, the pill would change. No matter how hard she tried to control the fire, she couldn't succeed.    

    

"Failed." She muttered as if she was telling Lin Yue, but also as if she was talking to herself.    

    

Lin Yue saw the change in the smell of the light coming out from the hole, and of course he knew the result. He felt that, at this point, it could be considered as a success, as long as he passed this stage, the pill should be able to be successfully refined.    

    

"Zheng Wan, don't be discouraged. As long as you pass through this point, the pill should not deteriorate."    

    

Zheng Wan gave a bitter smile, and her beautiful face carried a hint of tiredness as she said softly: "How could it be that simple? The problems encountered in Pill Master, even if they were small, would require thousands of tests to solve.    

    

"Ugh …" "Fine, I admit that I don't understand. However, as long as I know to grit my teeth and persevere, I will succeed in the end …"    

    

Thank you, I know, but this is actually nothing. I am already a Pill Master, I can directly pass the entrance examination, at most in a few years time I will advance to the next level. As for you, it's getting late, you should go back and train.    

    

Even though Zheng Wan said those words in a relaxed manner, her face was still very heavy and she must still be very unwilling to accept them in her heart.    

    

Lin Yue suddenly saw that there was still a portion of the medicinal herbs that Zheng Wan had used to concoct the pellet earlier, and could not help but ask, "Zheng Wan, what do we do with these medicinal herbs?"    

    

Zheng Wan took a glance and faintly said: "Once the spirit medicine is broken, the medicinal power will quickly drain. You should probably throw away these herbs, right?"    

    

"Throwing it away, isn't that a pity!?" When Lin Yue heard that he was going to throw away the spirit grass, he suddenly frowned.    

    

"You!?"    

    

Zheng Wan's face revealed a look that said you can pull it off, but after thinking about it, these medicine would be thrown away anyways, Lin Yue had good intentions, and wanted to find trouble for her. Although it seemed to her that this was pure trouble, he was still grateful, and nodded: "Whatever you want."    

    

Receiving Zheng Wan's permission, Lin Yue was overjoyed, and immediately ran over to lift the furnace, extending his hand to take out the grindstone.    

    

When he was taking out the grindstone, he had actually forgotten that the furnace was burnt for a very long time. When he extended his hand, he immediately let out a blood-curdling screech as he hurriedly retracted his hand and continued kneading his ear.    

    

"There's a hook at the side," Zheng Wan reminded.    

    

"Oh." Only then did Lin Yue use a hook to take out the abrasive tool. Then, he poured out the charred pill and filled three holes in the remaining medicinal herbs.    

    

Seeing that Lin Yue was clumsy like a monkey, Zheng Wan secretly shook her head. She did not hold any hope for and since she was mentally exhausted, she decided to just sit on a chair to the side and rest.    

    

Lin Yue imitated Zheng Wan's actions just now, opening the pill furnace and placing the grinder inside. However, when he waved his fan, the beast core that was not completely extinguished yet suddenly emitted a faint blue flame.    

    

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the pill fragrance came out from the round hole on the furnace. The green gas was pure and fresh, and the entire house was fragrant.    

    

But suddenly, Lin Yue noticed that the flames beneath the cauldron had dimmed, and it was only then that he noticed that the beast core was burnt out!    

    

This was the critical moment. How could he do it without fire!?    

    

Now, if he were to release the beast core, it would be too late. Lin Yue looked anxious, thinking that he really was an amateur.    

    

Just as he was about to give up, a thought suddenly flashed through Lin Yue's mind, he remembered that he heard others saying that Genuine Essence could help in the burn.    

    

Thus, he immediately urged his Genuine Essence, and with his palm, he struck downwards towards the furnace.
