Chapter 230 If you're not up to the task, don't blame the furnace!
Two hours passed quickly.
Chen Fan was still selecting medicinal herbs.
His slow and deliberate manner made even the Second Elder feel a little sleepy.
Seeing this, the other disciples either left or meditated.
Tianxiangzi also sat cross-legged and waited silently.
Guang Anzi stood guard beside him.
His face was full of displeasure as he plotted how to deal with this yakuza.
"I heard someone is going to take the exam to become a second-grade alchemist?"
Just then, a question came from above the Hall of Nourishing Elixir.
Then a man and a woman landed on the rooftop on their swords.
The man was exceptionally handsome, and the woman was beautiful and graceful.
The two were dressed in grass-blue robes, and they looked extraordinary!
"It's Senior Brother Chengfeng... and Senior Sister Ruyi..."
Guang Anzi looked surprised and said:
"Weren't they out?"
Tianxiangzi also opened her eyes.
Looking at the two people in front of her, she frowned.
"Riding the wind... As you wish..." the Second Elder asked softly.
"Why are you back?"
Senior Brother Chengfeng nodded slightly.
With a smile on his face, he immediately brought Ruyi to the Second Elder's side:
"Reporting to the Second Elder... the mission at Luoxia Mountain wasn't too difficult, so we returned ahead of schedule..."
"That demonic beast on Mount Luoxia is a Foundation Establishment stage demon!" the Second Elder exclaimed in surprise.
"You two...you've both become so amazing!"
"Second Elder, you flatter me!" Senior Sister Ruyi said with a light laugh.
"My husband and I were just lucky..."
The Second Elder nodded slightly.
He thought that Mount Luoxia was teeming with demonic beasts, including more than a dozen Foundation Establishment level demons.
The fact that this couple could go and return so quickly is enough to show how powerful their cultivation is!
If he wasn't mistaken, the two of them were probably about to break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage through dual cultivation!
"Second Elder, is this the person who wants to take the second-grade alchemist exam?" Senior Brother Chengfeng asked again at this moment!
"It is indeed this person..." The Second Elder nodded slightly.
"To want to become a second-grade alchemist at such a young age..." Senior Sister Ruyi said.
"That's still a bit too arrogant... In my opinion, it's unlikely to succeed!"
Senior Brother Chengfeng smiled without saying a word.
He clearly agreed with his wife's statement.
He said softly, having just returned from outside:
"Second Elder, we are quite tired from our trip over the past few days, so we'd like to head back now!"
Senior Sister Ruyi nodded slightly.
Just as the two were about to leave, they saw Chen Fan move!
After spending several hours selecting medicinal herbs, he finally began refining the elixir!
Chen Fan was seen frowning.
They also began adding various main ingredients, auxiliary ingredients, saltpeter, and other substances into the alchemy furnace.
Unperturbed, he then used the fireball technique to refine the pills!
"Fireball spell for alchemy?" Senior Brother Chengfeng sneered upon seeing this.
"A Foundation Establishment stage cultivator who can't even use Innate True Fire... and he wants to become a second-grade alchemist?"
The Second Elder frowned.
He glanced at Chengfeng and Ruyi, but did not say anything.
Even Tianxiangzi frowned!
Seeing that Jidaozi was not disturbed in the arena, he breathed a sigh of relief!
I wonder if Senior Brother Chengfeng was once a genius alchemist in Caogu.
But his temperament changed drastically after failing the assessment for a second-grade alchemist!
Moreover, after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, Senior Brother Chengfeng never touched alchemy again.
They also harbored great hatred towards those alchemists!
Lost in thought, Tianxiangzi couldn't help but steal a glance at Jidaozi.
He thought to himself that this person not only had an extremely high level of alchemy skills, but also an exceptionally calm and composed temperament.
Compared to the talented young men she knew, he was far more outstanding.
Alchemy is a long process.
Chen Fan sat there for three hours.
Many of the disciples who had been watching have also left.
But Tianxiangzi, Guang'anzi, Chengfeng, and the couple Ruyi are still here.
Even the Second Elder felt a bit tired and went back to his room to sleep!
As night fell, the area in front of the Hall of Nourishing Elixir became quiet and still.
Chen Fan sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace.
It is as stable as a rock.
He constantly controlled the heat, observing the changes in the stove at all times.
Another half hour passed.
The stove suddenly moved!
This drew the attention of everyone present.
Tianxiangzi, in particular, secretly felt a sense of foreboding!
Chen Fan frowned.
Then quickly turn off the engine!
Click!
However, a crisp cracking sound rang out.
The surface of the stove developed fine cracks, and then it shattered into pieces on the ground!
Upon closer inspection, two dark, unusable pills lay in the broken furnace!
"Hahaha...it actually exploded!" Guang Anzi laughed upon seeing this.
"Although the Nourishing Essence Pill is only a second-grade pill, its medicinal properties are mild, and there's absolutely no possibility of it causing an explosion! You're quite the character! You actually managed to cause an explosion!"
Chen Fan squinted and remained silent.
His gaze fell upon the shards on the ground, and he roughly understood the reason for the explosion!
"Just a clown jumping around..." Senior Brother Chengfeng, who had been watching for almost five or six hours, shook his head and said:
"Ruyi... let's go back!"
Sister Ruyi smiled.
She glanced at Chen Fan with disdain, then turned and left!
After the person left.
The area in front of the Hall of Nourishing Elixir had become much quieter.
After learning the reason, Chen Fan looked up and said:
"The furnace is no good... I need a better alchemy furnace..."
"What? You're the one who's no good and you're blaming the furnace for your own faults..." Guang Anzi sneered.
"Stop making a fool of yourself here...it's ridiculous!"
"Shut up!" Tian Xiangzi gritted her teeth and said.
"Use my furnace... It's enough to refine even grade three pills!"
The words had barely left his mouth!
Tianxiangzi took out a three-legged, round-eared alchemy furnace from his storage bag.
This ignited Guang Anzi's jealousy, and he said:
"Junior sister...how could you let him use the stove?"
"It's my stove, I can do what I want! What's wrong with that?" Tianxiangzi retorted.
"Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Guang Anzi's face turned bright red!
He was speechless, his heart burning with jealousy!
Chen Fan nodded slightly upon seeing this scene and said:
"Thank you, fellow Daoist..."
"No need for thanks..." Tianxiangzi reminded him.
"The Nourishing Essence Pill has complex medicinal properties... Be careful!"
Chen Fan nodded as he took the stove.
Without wasting any words, he continued refining pills.
Having learned from his previous experience in selecting ingredients, he quickly prepared a batch of herbs for the Nourishing Essence Pill.
With practiced skill, Chen Fan put the medicinal herbs into the furnace and started refining them!
This made Guang Anzi quite unhappy when he saw it.
Gritting his teeth, he turned and left.
Seeing this, Tianxiangzi didn't ask any further questions.
Her gaze remained fixed on Jidaozi, and she appeared somewhat gentle.
I don't know why.
Tianxiangzi inexplicably developed a slight liking for this person.
That strange feeling made her a little shy!
The night passed quickly!
As golden sunlight spilled onto the roof of the Yangdan Hall.
More and more disciples from the Grass Valley are coming here.
Many people came just to watch the spectacle.
Among them were the couple Chengfeng and Ruyi.
Their faces were indifferent, even though their cultivation had reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment!
And in front of the palace.
Chen Fan was still controlling the fire to refine the Nourishing Essence Pill.
Having used the Heavenly Fragrance Elixir Furnace, he is at a crucial moment!
Having expended a considerable amount of spiritual energy, Chen Fan also appeared somewhat exhausted!
