Eons Venerable Lord

Ling Feng had no choice but to follow his instructions and start concocting pills.    

    

However, he didn't do it directly this time. Instead, he crossed his legs and rested for a while, restoring himself to his peak condition. During this period of time, Old Man Yun seemed to be extremely patient, and didn't urge him at all.    

    

Fifteen minutes later, Ling Feng carefully took down the cauldron from before. He placed the new cauldron on the ground and carefully examined the medicinal ingredients. Only then did he sit cross-legged in front of the cauldron. He circulated his soul force and began to control the underground fire. Only after the temperature of the cauldron was much lower did he pick up the lid. He threw the first stalk of spirit medicine inside.    

    

With the experience of the previous failure, Ling Feng knew that he should have been too anxious to succeed just now. His soul force was too strong and he did not grasp the strength well, causing several medicinal effects to repel each other and explode in the cauldron.    

    

Therefore, he was very careful this time. His movements were not fast, or it could be said that he was a little rusty.    

    

Old Man Yun saw all of this and kept nodding his head. He could see that with Ling Feng's technique, he was not familiar with it. It could even be said that he was not professional, especially when it came to controlling the soul. He was even more unreasonable, which consumed a lot of soul power and Yuan Qi.    

    

However, Ling Feng's soul power was extremely shocking. Ling Feng was only sixteen years old, but his soul power was as powerful as a needle, almost reaching the bronze level. This kind of powerful soul power, he really didn't know how this brat cultivated it.    

    

One should know that there were very few super martial arts that could cultivate soul power in Fallen Flame Continent. Even he only had one low spiritual grade soul power martial art. This was something he had obtained by chance during a fortuitous encounter.    

    

Otherwise, he wouldn't have achieved what he had today.    

    

Cai Lili stole a glance and saw that Elder Yun had been nodding his head. Her heart was filled with joy. It seemed that this old man had really taken a liking to Ling Feng. Perhaps if she took him in as a personal disciple, Ling Feng would become rich.    

    

Ling Feng's movements were still slow. He only refined two stalks of spiritual herbs in an hour and his forehead was already covered in sweat.    

    

After refining the second herb, Ling Feng was not in a hurry to refine the third herb. Instead, he closed his eyes and meditated for a while. When he had almost recovered, he continued to refine.    

    

Just like that, he repeated the process. It took Ling Feng almost six hours to completely refine all the herbs. At the final stage of the fusion, he closed his eyes and began to recover.    

    

Old Man Yun did not say anything. He just quietly watched Ling Feng's movements, soul force, and the way to control Yuan Qi. Sometimes he frowned, sometimes he nodded and showed a praising look. All kinds of different expressions kept changing on his face like facial expressions.    

    

Ling Feng naturally didn't have the interest to pay attention to these. After he recovered, he began the final refinement.    

    

Huhuhu...    

    

The burning flame continued to bake the cauldron. Soon, the cauldron became fiery red once again. It trembled unceasingly, and even the lid of the cauldron began to ring incessantly.    

    

Ling Feng's forehead was covered in sweat, and it seemed extremely strenuous. As he controlled his soul force and Yuan Qi, he frowned and pondered. He seemed to be recalling his previous experience and thinking of a new method.    

    

Four hours passed, and suddenly, a soft sound came from within the cauldron. Ling Feng's face changed and turned pale. "It can't be that the cauldron is going to explode again, right?"    

    

Cai Lili's heart also jumped to her throat, although there was a chance of success in concocting the pill. Old Man Yun also gave three sets of herbs to Ling Feng, but she still hoped that Ling Feng could succeed in one go. Only by doing so would she be able to gain Old Man Yun's favorable impression to the greatest extent.    

    

"Control your soul power well. Don't forcefully merge it. Look carefully at the affinity points between the herbs. Use softness to suppress hardness and guide it!"    

    

At this moment, Old Man Yun reminded Ling Feng softly, like the evening drum and morning bell.    

    

Ling Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grabbed onto something. He then circulated his soul force once again, and the Yuan Qi in his body also surged. It seeped into the cauldron and wrapped around the essence of the herb. He was not in a hurry to merge with it. Instead, he shut his eyes and began to sense the characteristics within it.    

    

Just like that, after a moment, Ling Feng suddenly opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face. He flipped his hands and the two of the five essences slowly merged together under his control.    

    

The fusion went very smoothly this time. It only took him half an hour. The third and fourth essences merged one after another in less than an hour. The fusion was completed, and there were no more signs of rejection.    

    

At this point, Ling Feng wiped the sweat off his forehead. Next, it was time to condense the pill. As long as the flame remained the same, there wouldn't be any problems.    

    

"Not bad, your comprehension ability is very high!" Old Man Yun finally opened his mouth and praised. His eyes were filled with admiration.    

    

Ling Feng was overwhelmed by the favor. "It's all thanks to Elder Yun's reminder. Otherwise, Ling Feng wouldn't have been able to succeed so easily!"    

    

"En!"    

    

Elder Yun nodded his head in satisfaction. In his heart, he secretly praised this kid for being neither arrogant nor rash. He was a rare talent.    

    

"That's right, that's right. Old Man Yun, you're really amazing. With just one sentence, you helped Ling Feng successfully condense the pill. You are indeed worthy of being the number one alchemist of our Cangnan Academy!"    

    

Cai Lili quickly followed him and flattered him. Upon hearing this, Old Man Yun was delighted and pleased. He said proudly, "That's right. I dare to say that I am number one in the Cangnan Academy, but who dares to say that I am number two?"    

    

"That's right, that's right. None of the people in the Pill Refining Hall can compare to Elder Yun!" Cai Lili struck while the iron was hot and flattered him loudly, which made Old Man Yun feel like he was floating in the air.    

    

At this moment, a rich medicinal fragrance spread out from the furnace and filled the entire Pill Refining Room.
