Chapter 412: Fire Refinement Pavilion

In the domain space.
Li Yuanqing was sitting upright in front of the golden alchemy furnace. His body was emitting a thick fog and was covered in sweat.
In the alchemy furnace, a red flame kept flickering.
Li Yuanqing stared at the fire with burning eyes, not daring to look away for a moment.
Below the alchemy furnace was an entire ball of flames. The flames spat out faint purple flames that emitted a scorching temperature, roasting the entire alchemy furnace to a very high temperature.
This flame was very simple and crude. It was a spiritual fire produced by the fire seed and spiritual power. This kind of fire was more natural and barbaric, and it was slower to control.
The flames produced by the array formation that Wang Lan used were even more special. It was also the fire that the alchemists in the Immortal World liked to use the most. Only by controlling every trace of precision could they satisfy the precision needed to refine pills.
However, most of those flames were consumables that needed to be bought again after they were exhausted.
Usually, creating such a flame array formation and selling it was exclusive to the Fire Refinement Pavilion.
Li Yuanqing had only heard of the Fire Refinement Pavilion recently. This was the Weapon Refinement Pavilion of the Immortal World.
This was because the weapon refinement masters in the Immortal World valued flames the most. They worshiped flames and became the most respected core. Therefore, fire was the sacred artifact of weapon refinement masters.
That was how the Fire Refinement Pavilion got its name.
The Fire Refinement Pavilion was spread throughout the entire Immortal World. It could be said to be the top two organizations with the Alchemy Pavilion.
Most of the other human organizations were in the form of sects. These sects might have their own strengths, but generally speaking, they were more balanced and had complete functions.
Because of the special nature of the alchemist and weapon refinement master professions, it was easier for them to form a special alliance through a certain connection. That was why these two alliances could exist for so long.
Moreover, even if you were an alchemist of a large sect, you had to have the test of the Alchemy Pavilion to be considered official.
Li Yuanqing originally only considered joining the Alchemy Pavilion as soon as possible.
However, after Li Yuanqing obtained the formula for the Fire Spirit Pill, he could not help but start refining it.
Then, he discovered a problem. The fire and alchemy furnace that was considered top notch in the Lower Realm, however, when he used it to refine the herbs and prescriptions here, it seemed like it was not enough.
In particular, the power of the huge spirit fruit was especially violent. It almost destroyed his alchemy furnace.
It was also because of these unstable factors that Li Yuanqing had failed the first experiment. He had even lost a huge spirit fruit, making his heart ache.
The third batch was about to be completed. He believed that this batch would definitely bring about a good outcome. The medicinal liquid inside became thicker and thicker and was about to condense into a ball. After that, it would become the Fire Spirit Pill he needed after a simple roasting.
Li Yuanqing flipped his hand over the flames below and suddenly spat out a large ball of flames that enveloped the entire alchemy furnace. After a few seconds, the flames quickly subsided.
As the flames decreased, the fog gradually weakened. One could see that the liquid inside had been divided into dozens of evenly sized balls.
Li Yuanqing was also overjoyed as he looked at the Fire Spirit Pill that was gradually taking shape.
This Fire Spirit Pill was not a complicated thing.
However, Wang Lan had added a lot of improvements. He added all his understanding and raised the difficulty of refining the Fire Spirit Pill to a new level.
Li Yuanqing had a deep knowledge of pills. He could tell that there was something strange about this prescription at the beginning, but he still decided to follow the steps on it in detail.
Although this was very dangerous, fortunately, he was about to succeed.
Little Man and Hu Jiujiu gradually woke up after a day of sleep. Their auras had changed a little, and their personalities had changed.
Hu Jiujiu lay diagonally behind Li Yuanqing. Her figure was as soft as flowing water, and her eyes were filled with autumn waves. The aura on her body was also fluctuating, and she did not look too stable.
Little Man returned to her true form. The thick vines kept entangled and collided with each other. For some reason, after Little Man woke up this time, she seemed to have a strong desire to attack. She had destroyed many plants just now.
If Li Yuanqing had not stopped her, Little Man would probably still be releasing her urges.
It was as if Little Man wanted to destroy everything she saw now. There was a very violent aura in her heart.
As for the two little dolls, they had also become even more lazy. They were originally affectionate and normal, but now, they have become two round balls. They lay there without moving. They only cared about eating all day long.
The problem was that their cultivation seemed to have stopped after they ate a lot of treasures. Their growth speed was much slower than before.
Li Yuanqing was still a little worried that all those treasures had been wasted. He vaguely connected these changes to what Wang Lan had said.
If the thing produced by this potion really magnified and weakened some other aspects, it would be impossible for Li Yuanqing to watch Hu Jiujiu and the others become strange. Moreover, this strangeness was not as simple as it looked. After it became uneven, their cultivation progress became much slower.
At this moment, a muffled sound came from the alchemy furnace. The flames under the alchemy furnace gradually calmed down, and the thick smoke gradually dissipated.
Li Yuanqing waited quietly for a moment. Suddenly, he flipped his hand and imitated Wang Lan. He flipped open the lid of the alchemy furnace and dozens of Fire Spirit Pills flew out of the furnace one by one.
After these pills circled in the air, they headed towards Li Yuanqing. Finally, they landed in front of Li Yuanqing and stacked into a square.
Li Yuanqing looked at these Fire Spirit Pills in satisfaction. The quality of these things was much better than he had imagined.
He took out a Fire Spirit Pill and threw it at an empty space that had already been prepared.
After the Fire Spirit Pill landed, it exploded with a bang. The aftermath of the explosion hit Li Yuanqing’s body, causing him to take two steps back. He looked happy and satisfied as he looked at the pitch-black pit that had just appeared in front of him.
This Fire Spirit Pill was really a good thing. Although the refinement was a little complicated, the effect made Li Yuanqing very satisfied.
A small Fire Spirit Pill had such power. If he refined more, dozens or hundreds of them would explode at the same time. No matter how powerful the enemy was, they would probably not be able to withstand such a momentum.
Li Yuanqing took out a white jade box and carefully packed up all the Fire Spirit Pills.
He was originally worried that Wang Lan would hold back and cause him some trouble. However, from the looks of it, Wang Lan was quite generous. He took out such a private secret formula at once and let Li Yuanqing produce such a high-quality Fire Spirit Pill so easily.
Li Yuanqing looked at the box in his hand and could not help but recall the scene he had seen in the black market last time. It seemed that everything in the black market was sold. If he could find some useful prescriptions, wouldn’t he be able to try more?
He felt that he was getting more and more familiar with his skills. However, he did not know how strong the test of the Alchemy Pavilion was or how good he was.
With this thought in mind, Li Yuanqing left the domain space. He had originally planned to let Little Man and the others out after they were prepared and slowly adapt to the environment of the Immortal World.
However, now that such a thing had happened, Li Yuanqing had no choice but to postpone his original plan.
He might have to wait until he finds the legendary Lord Wan Gu and treat their illnesses first.
A gray-robed figure quickly left the Jiuyuan Medicine Garden. After leaving, this person headed south, taking especially remote paths. He turned left and right, making countless turns. Finally, he stopped in a very quiet valley and found a very hidden cave abode.
This cave abode was one of the cave abodes he had built last time.
After all, there were many experts in the Immortal World. It was better to restrain himself here. He would not be targeted if he was so cautious.
An hour later, Li Yuanqing walked out of the cave abode and returned to his previous appearance. Now, he is Zhao Tai’an.
Golden Bamboo Mountain.
There was laughter coming and going in the forest. It was a lively scene.
Ever since that huge fire spirit fruit appeared on the Golden Bamboo Mountain last time, the black market of the Golden Bamboo Mountain had inexplicably become popular.
Many old customers slowly ran back and waited here every day. They all wanted to see what this Fire Spirit Fruit was.
After all, it had been so many years since something new had appeared. This huge spirit fruit was so famous, but it was really something new.
Shan Que walked out of the secret passageway with a smile. Two more rash fellows had just arrived. He liked these inexperienced fellows the most. They could let him earn a lot of money from them.
Moreover, he could be considered to have some achievements now. Last time, it was the two of them brothers who discovered that strange guest. He was also rewarded a lot because of this.
Now, among the unrelated people who were soliciting customers outside, he could be considered to have a small status and had become a small leader.
Business was good today. Ever since that guy came, this place had become more and more lively.
Just as Shan Que’s smug light barrier was aimed at his next target, a familiar face suddenly appeared in front of him.
That person was thin and tall with a very strange mask on his face, but it could not hide much of his characteristics. From afar, one could see that guy’s thin face. He was very familiar with this person.
When Shan Que saw this familiar face, he immediately pulled his brother along.
“Sir, you’re finally here!”
The two brothers sandwiched Li Yuanqing in the middle.
Li Yuanqing did not push them away. Instead, he smiled at the two of them.
“Long time no see.”
“My good brother, we missed you so much! You haven’t been here for so many days. We thought you had somewhere else to go.”
Li Yuanqing smiled and thought about himself. The Spirit Gathering Fruit had indeed been sold elsewhere. It was probably not appropriate to sell it here anymore. It would be easy for Wang Lan to discover it.
Shan Que looked around warily and whispered into Li Yuanqing’s ear, “Brother, more than half of the people here are here to look for you. You have to be careful.”
“Is that so?”
“You don’t know that the treasure in your hand is a popular thing now. If you’re discovered by them, you’ll definitely be in trouble.”
Li Yuanqing nodded slightly and said to the two of them, “Then please help me keep the secret.”
Shan Que patted his chest and promised, “My good friend! My good brother! Who do you think I am? I didn’t reveal anything about you!”
Although this guy was greedy and had almost cheated Li Yuanqing of a lot of spirit stones in the beginning, he was still honest and Li Yuanqing did not dislike him.
“What do you mean? Did you bring that huge spirit fruit again today?”
Shan Que rubbed his hands excitedly. After the previous incident, Master Wuyan had carefully instructed him to treat this person well if he came again.
Moreover, they would have to rely on the Spirit Gathering Fruit to earn more spirit stones in the future. This was a big customer.
Li Yuanqing replied apologetically, “I’m afraid it won’t be easy to get the Giant Spirit Fruit.”
“Why is that?”
When Shan Que heard this, his expression immediately changed.
“Good brother, this huge spirit fruit is an extremely popular treasure now. If you sell it, you’ll be selling it at a fair price. Don’t sell it to others!”
“You helped me sell it for such a good price last time. Of course I’m grateful to you. Why would I sell it to someone else?”
“Then why is it gone this time?” Shan Que said anxiously.
“Master Wuyan specially instructed that as long as you’re willing to sell it to us for a long time, you can name the price. He can think of a way.”
Li Yuanqing smiled and rejected, “It’s not something I can decide. It’s just that there has been a problem with the production recently. There are no ripe fruits.”
“I see. Then why are you here? Could it be that you have other treasures?”
Li Yuanqing raised his hand very frankly, holding a bright red pill between his fingers.
Shan Que looked at the fire spirit pill and was stunned for a moment. Then, her eyes widened until they finally formed a circle.
“This… this is?”
