Chapter 811 (2/2)
…
The higher the rank of the Elixir Medicine, the more difficult its refinement, and the longer the time required.
After the ancestor of the Changyun Clan began the alchemy, six hours had swiftly passed.
In the time of six hours, if it were for low-tier elixirs, the process would have been completed already, but the refinement of the Longevity Life-Extension Elixir still had a long way to go.
At this moment.
The ancestor of the Changyun Clan seemed as if he had performed the alchemy countless times, observing the situation inside the pill furnace with ease while skillfully controlling the flames at its base, appearing extremely relaxed.
Although the ancestor of the Changyun Clan appeared very relaxed, a look of utmost seriousness could be seen in his eyes.
As time rapidly flowed, another six hours went by.
This furnace of the Longevity Life-Extension Elixir had now been in the process of refinement for a full twelve hours.
The meticulous observation over twelve hours left many feeling a touch of fatigue, Lin Jing included.
However, this degree of tiredness was a common occurrence for alchemists like them who routinely practiced alchemy, and wasn’t considered significant.
It was then that the Radiant Cloud Surprising Immortal Furnace underwent a change; the formation patterns on the body of the furnace began to move more swiftly.
The ancestor of the Changyun Clan also began to stoke the golden flames, making them burn even more fiercely.
It seemed that the refinement of the elixir furnace medicine was likely nearing its final stage.
After a while longer, with the formation patterns on the furnace body accelerating continuously, the ancestor of the Changyun Clan rose to his feet, staring fixedly at the pill furnace while carefully controlling the golden flames at its base.
Right after the ancestor of the Changyun Clan stood up, white mist began to drift out from the pill furnace.
Accompanying the white mist was the delightful fragrance of the elixir.
By this time, everyone knew they had reached the crucial moment of pill formation.
The outcome of this alchemy was significant.
So, people quickly pulled themselves together, watching the ancestor of the Changyun Clan with tension.
Time seemed to slow to a crawl at this moment, as everyone anxiously gazed at the pill furnace in the great hall, secretly praying.
They hoped that the ancestor could succeed in a single attempt, creating a flawless Longevity Life-Extension Elixir.
Just then…
Suddenly, a wisp of colorful light shone out from within the pill furnace.
Upon seeing this colorful light, everyone present, including Lin Jing, was instantly overjoyed.
The appearance of extraordinary phenomena was a must for the emergence of high-grade flawless elixirs, and this colorful light was indeed one such omen.
Seeing this omen, it meant that the refinement of the flawless elixir, barring any accidents, should be a success.
However, in the middle of the assembly, the ancestor of the Changyun Clan remained unflustered and continued to refine the elixir with dedication.
Time ticked away; the colorful light grew brighter, and the elixir fragrance filling the great hall became increasingly intense.
It looked like the flawless elixir was about to be successfully created.
All were filled with anticipation, waiting for the emergence of this batch of flawless elixir.
But just at that moment…
The ancestor of the Changyun Clan, for some unknown reason, abruptly paused, and the golden flames he was controlling suddenly surged violently, engulfing the entire pill furnace in an instant.
What had been going very smoothly up until now was suddenly thrown into disarray by this unexpected development, causing a collective gasp among those around.
Lin Jing was no exception as he quickly looked towards the ancestor of the Changyun Clan to see what had happened.
By the time Lin Jing looked over, the ancestor of the Changyun Clan had already reacted.
After regaining his composure, the ancestor of the Changyun Clan’s face turned extremely grim as he urgently stimulated his spiritual power to bring the flames back to their original state.
However, due to that brief interruption, the colorful light that had appeared was now nowhere to be seen.
Seeing this, everyone realized that something had gone wrong.
This was almost like saying that the flawless Longevity Life-Extension Elixir, which was nearly in their grasp, had failed at the critical moment.
Even so, everyone dared not speak, instead waiting for the ancestor of the Changyun Clan to completely finish refining the elixir.
Soon after.
The elixir was finally complete, and the ancestor of the Changyun Clan withdrew the golden flames from beneath the furnace.
Seeing this, a few of the elders of the Changyun Clan quickly deactivated the formation, and as soon as the formation was open, Changyun Yuanshuang immediately spoke up, asking the ancestor of the Changyun Clan:
“Ancestor, what exactly happened?”
The ancestor of the Changyun Clan’s face was as still as water as he slowly spoke:
“The Disaster Heavenly Book…”
