Chapter 572: Pill Completion
One by one, everyone began to sit cross legged on the bluestone ground, their eyes gradually closing. Their breathing slowed and became steady they had all entered deep meditation.
Up in the sky, Jing Hongchen watched the scene with envy. "Once they wake up from this deep meditation, their potential and strength will undoubtedly improve."
The benefits of deep meditation for a soul master were undeniable.
Even he had never experienced it before, as deep meditation was a rare and uncontrollable phenomenon.
Of course, he could also inhale the medicinal fragrance in the air, and he could feel his soul power stirring within him.
However, despite this, he had not entered deep meditation.
Jing Hongchen speculated that this was because his strength far surpassed that of the Spirit Transmitting Tower members and academy students.
To enter deep meditation, he would likely need to absorb a far greater amount of medicinal fragrance than those with lower cultivation.
After all, achieving enlightenment as a Title Douluo was far more difficult than for a Soul King or a Soul Emperor.
Of course, he would never use his superior strength to forcibly take more of the medicinal fragrance, as that would be unfair to the others who also deserved this opportunity.
Inside the Third Laboratory
Huo Yuhao stared intently at the golden red glowing alchemy furnace, fully focused this was the most critical moment of the process: pill condensation.
If he succeeded, the Heavenly Creation Pill would be complete.
Not only would this pill greatly enhance his own strength, but it would also boost the abilities of those who consumed it.
His expression remained calm, his ice blue eyes flashing as he used his partial divine consciousness to control the fire, stabilize the medicinal liquid, and ensure it condensed properly.
The dense medicinal fragrance continued to flow like a gentle stream, escaping from the ventilation holes of the alchemy furnace and drifting through the windows of the laboratory, spreading into the outside world.
As a Soul Sage, he could not compare to a Title Douluo in terms of raw soul power.
Sustaining the operation of a nine rank alchemy furnace for an extended period put immense pressure on him.
Fortunately, this nine rank furnace was crafted from spirit forged metal, forged by his own hands.
This gave him a deep connection to the furnace, making it significantly easier to control.
Additionally, he had prepared multiple high grade sealed milk bottles, ensuring that he would not run out of soul power.
These newly crafted bottles were made from spirit forged metal, allowing them to store greater amounts of soul power with higher purity compared to previous versions.
At that moment, the golden red glow of the furnace intensified, becoming dazzlingly radiant.
Suddenly, beams of golden light shot out from beneath the furnace lid, filling the entire laboratory with a brilliant golden radiance.
A surge of fragrance erupted, more intense than before, flooding the room like a burst dam.
At the same time, the alchemy furnace began trembling violently.
The temperature in the laboratory spiked, causing some of the rare metals placed around the room to soften, with some even showing signs of melting into liquid form.
However, for Huo Yuhao, this heat was nothing it wasn't even enough to make him break a sweat.
"The medicinal essence is becoming unstable I must suppress it, or everything will be ruined."
His ice blue eyes gleamed, and in an instant, a surge of divine consciousness crushed down onto the trembling furnace.
The violent, chaotic medicinal energy inside the furnace immediately stabilized.
The golden glow gradually faded back into a calm golden red hue, and the ventilation holes ceased releasing fragrance as if all the medicinal essence had been completely absorbed by something within the furnace.
Huo Yuhao rose from his seat and stepped toward the furnace.
With a few quick taps on its surface, he channeled his Ultimate Ice soul power, causing layers of frost to rapidly spread over the furnace's exterior.
A series of cracking sounds echoed as the entire furnace was encased in ice.
The temperature in the laboratory plummeted instantly.
As time passed, the intense heat within the furnace was completely absorbed by the frost layer.
With its task complete, the ice shattered into countless fragments, falling to the ground as Huo Yuhao willed it to dissipate.
"It's done nine pills in total."
Using his divine consciousness, he sensed the newly formed pills inside the furnace, and a smile appeared on his face.
This result was even better than in the original story, where Huo Yuhao had only managed to refine seven pills.
There were three reasons for this improvement:
The nine rank spirit forged alchemy furnace had provided greater refinement efficiency.
His precise control using divine consciousness had maximized the extraction and fusion of medicinal properties.
He had used more rare medicinal ingredients than in the original story, thanks to his complete collection from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
With a wave of his hand, the furnace lid flew off with a "whoosh," revealing nine pristine white pills inside.
Each pill was the size of a fingernail, yet radiated an ethereal glow, as if day and night were merging above them in a celestial dance.
A strong medicinal fragrance erupted from the pills, rushing into Huo Yuhao's nose.
He immediately felt his entire body become lighter and more refined, as if his very being had been purified.
Taking out a clean jade bottle, he carefully stored all nine pills inside, preventing any loss of potency.
Then, with steady steps, he exited the laboratory.
Outside the Third Laboratory
As soon as Huo Yuhao stepped out, Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen descended from the sky to greet him.
"Yuhao, how did the pill refinement go?" Kong Deming asked eagerly.
He naturally hoped that such a powerful pill had been successfully refined, but his rational side reminded him that the stronger a pill was, the harder it was to create.
"The pills have been successfully refined."
Huo Yuhao raised the jade bottle, a smile forming on his lips.
"Nine pills in total. They're all inside this bottle."
"Nine?! That's far better than I expected!" Kong Deming's eyes lit up with genuine joy.
From his years of experience, he knew that the stronger the pill, the fewer pills could be refined in a single batch.
According to Huo Yuhao's earlier descriptions, the Heavenly Creation Pill was an extremely powerful elixir.
Having nine successful pills was already an exceptional outcome.
Beside him, Jing Hongchen was equally astonished.
Huo Yuhao then said, "Elder Kong, Headmaster, I won't be keeping all these pills for myself.
"I will distribute some of them, and both of you will receive one each."
In Huo Yuhao's view, Elder Kong taking the pill would undoubtedly increase his strength significantly.
As for Jing Hongchen, consuming the Heavenly Creation Pill might give him the opportunity to break through to a Super Douluo, making him the second ten rank soul engineer in the Sun Moon Empire.
