Chapter 153 Five Pill Patterns! Top Grade Cold Jade Foundation Establishment Pill Made!_2
Next, Chen Yi utilized the Shadow Evasion Skill, instantly returning to the Martial World.
Then, adopting the identity of an old man, he returned to the Immortal Cultivation World again. However, this time, he appeared directly on the outskirts of the Silk Bamboo Palace.
As mentioned before, when Chen Yi first began to traverse between the two worlds, he was able to choose his destination within certain proximities, such as the front yard or the backyard.
As his Divine Sense grew stronger, he now could appear anywhere within 40 Zhang (approximately 132 feet) of his Divine Sense's coverage.
After leaving the Silk Bamboo Palace, Chen Yi in his old man's disguise, went straight to the nearby Pill Refining Room.
He rented a second-tier pill room and initiated the Earthfire.
Chen Yi officially began to refine his own Foundation Establishment Pill.
Chen Yi placed the spirit stone into the Earthfire Array, inputting his mana. A wave of heat surged, raising bright yellow flames several feet high in the second-tier Pill Furnace.
Chen Yi calmly stabilized his mana; once he had the flames completely under control, he slowly took out a pile of materials.
Ah, first, to refine a batch of early-stage second-tier Gold Body Pills.
On an ordinary day, Chen Yi wouldn't adhere to such specifics, but today, he was making a unique Foundation Establishment Pill for his personal use.
There's no harm in Chen Yi being overly prepared.
The process of refining the Gold Body Pill went smoothly. However, when finalizing the production, Chen Yi used his "Consume Pill" Secret Skill.
As a result, because of the Gold Body Pill's uniqueness, it actually failed.
A batch of several Gold Body Pills, which were meant to be top quality, ended up as mere waste pills, the others that were "consumed" turned black, even the expected top-quality pill was only of ordinary quality.
This batch cost Chen Yi hundreds of spirit stones.
However, instead of being furious, Chen Yi was thrilled!
Without saying a word, he immediately took out all the official Foundation Establishment Pill Materials, and began refining with utmost dedication.
This method is known as 'cushion pill refining,' a skill Chen Yi learned from the online games he played in his previous life.
Generally, if a batch fails, the chances of success for the next batch greatly increases.
Moreover, Chen Yi had gained a lot of experience from his many years of pill refining.
As the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill entered the furnace, Chen Yi took a deep breath and placed a mid second-tier Cold Jade Monster Core into the furnace.
Suddenly, the furnace's temperature dropped significantly.
Chen Yi wasn't in a panic; this was within his expectations. He increased his mana input regardless of the loss, maintaining the Earthfire's stability and strength.
At the same time, while dealing with the Cold Jade Monster Core, Chen Yi secretly added a hint of the Turtle Breath Daoist rhymes. Being reptiles, the Cold Jade Turtle Snake's demon core was among the few things that could withstand Chen Yi's Turtle Breath Daoist rhymes.
Time passed, Chen Yi used all the pill refining skills he had learned from both worlds over more than forty years.
Three days later,
Under Chen Yi's close watch, the three liquid-formed pills in the furnace were beginning to take shape.
From what Chen Yi observed, the three Foundation Establishment Pills were all of genuine quality, if collected skillfully, there was a high probability that all three would turn out genuine!
However,
Chen Yi took a deep breath, making up his mind, then sprang into action and activated the Secret Skill: Consume Pill!
In the Pill Furnace, the middle Foundation Establishment Pill suddenly began to rotate rapidly, and its speed was increasing!
In the blurry vision, some kind of medicinal properties from the other two pills turned into two faint smoky figures, drifting towards the middle Foundation Establishment Pill.
Chen Yi's spiritual power was rapidly depleting.
The medicinal properties of the central pill became more and more concentrated.
With time passing and under Chen Yi's close watch,
This pill had already formed four Daoist rhymes. The fifth was slowly taking shape!
This was an indication that the pill had achieved genuine quality and was evolving towards top quality.
Chen Yi remained calm and composed, consistently supplying steady mana.
However, although his Turtle Breath Magical Power was prolonged and resilient, this pill refining session was different.
For some reason, that central main pill, when consuming the other two pills, showed no signs of stopping.
Its rotating speed increased, becoming three times as fast as the best Foundation Establishment Pill that Chen Yi had ever refined, and its speed was still increasing.
Over half of Chen Yi's mana had been used up.
At this moment, however, he didn't take any pill to replenish his mana;
Doing so could lead to slight changes in his mana properties.
Chen Yi clenched his teeth, fully unleashed his Turtle Breath Skill, and mixed it with his mana. He cautiously experimented with infusing a bit of it into the central pill within the pill furnace.
The next moment,
The central main pill, like a starving wolf who hadn't eaten for three days, greedily absorbed Chen Yi's Turtle Breath Skill.
Meanwhile, the central pill was spinning even faster,
The medicinal properties of the two adjacent pills were almost completely drained.
Fortunately, this time, all the pill refining materials that Chen Yi had prepared were of top quality,
Which barely matched the unexpected situation.
Half an hour later, when Chen Yi's mana was almost exhausted,
Finally,
The central main pill, as if it has been satiated, finally slowed down its rotation.
"Whew——"
Chen Yi finally let out a sigh of relief. When his mana was nearly depleted, there was a moment of panic in his mind, pondering on what he would do if the pill kept absorbing.
Fortunately, Chen Yi had been practicing the Turtle Breathing Technique for many years, and his foundation was extremely solid, coupled with his fourfold Body Cultivators base.
At this moment, despite his almost depleted mana,
His body incessantly replenished his mana reserve from thin air, maintaining a sustainable supply — its generation speed was not slower than taking a Qi Supplement Pill!
This was the advantage of hard training over many years, he had deep reserves.
Chen Yi felt that this pill refining session had honed his inner mana just as effectively as a few dozen-days-long battle would for Song Chengcheng and his fellows.
However, this process was too damned scary.
In the event of any minor error during the pill refining session, Chen Yi's super-customized top-quality Foundation Establishment Pill would be lost.
