Chapter 32: The Birth of the Fox Elixir, Beginning the Alchemical Furnace
Serpent Queen: “Heh, do you really believe that? What can your ten spirit stones possibly buy? Even a single immortal herb in the hands of a true celestial would be worth more than your ten stones!”
Useless Seer: “Exactly! That pill is definitely not meant for you.”
Qin Wuxu felt miserable.
If it weren’t for the countless dangers she faced during her previous transmigration, forcing her to rely on the title of “Seer” to swindle and deceive in the prophecy chat group, accumulating a huge debt of points, she would have undoubtedly been the first to obtain the Celestial Lord’s elixir.
“I’m so envious! I’m so jealous!”
Curled up on the sofa, Qin Wuxu writhed in discomfort, rolling back and forth.
...
“About the Star Moon Grass?” Jiang Wang smiled upon seeing Qin Wuxu’s question. “This herb doesn’t have many uses; its main function is to fuse the powers of many different immortal herbs with the blood of the Tushan Fox.”
The Star Moon Grass is one of the more unique immortal herbs in the Heavenly Court.
Its primary role isn’t to grant attributes or special abilities, but to merge the powers of various lower-grade immortal herbs into one.
Of course, the Star Moon Grass can only fuse relatively low-level herbs. High-grade herbs or elixirs would instantly destroy it with their potent medicinal properties.
Useless Seer: “Fusing many immortal herbs with Tushan Fox blood? Celestial Lord, this pill is really made for Hu Liena, isn’t it?”
Serpent Queen: “Looks like she’s really got herself a great deal this time.”
Little Spider: “By the way, can the Celestial Lord’s elixir help Miss Hu break through the world’s limits?”
Mosquito’s Lifelong Nemesis: “It looks delicious. I’m hungry; I’ll go get some noodles.”
Old Heavenly Master: “Celestial Lord, can this pill-making method be used in any world?”
Jiang Wang glanced at the group’s messages and chuckled. “Indeed, it’s crafted for Hu Liena! As for whether the pill-making method works in other worlds, it hasn’t been tested yet. If you want to try, I can gift you a basic pill-making technique.”
Old Heavenly Master: “Thank you for your kindness, Celestial Lord!”
On Dragon Tiger Mountain, Zhang Zhiwei momentarily lost his composure.
He left the Taoist Palace and looked toward the sky.
There, white clouds drifted gently against the azure sky. Zhang Zhiwei sighed deeply.
“The Celestial Lord is merciful indeed.”
The reason Zhang Zhiwei had boldly asked Jiang Wang in the chat whether the pill-making technique could be practiced in other worlds was due to his own regrets.
Had it not been for those regrets, he would never have been so impolite in front of Jiang Wang to ask directly about practicing alchemy in other realms.
...
Jiang Wang continued refining the pill.
Giving Zhang Zhiwei the pill-making method was just a casual gesture.
Though Zhang Zhiwei’s world could never compare to the Heavenly Court, he possessed extraordinary talent and intelligence. Given time, he might well become a master alchemist and prove useful. It was an early investment.
A basic pill-making technique was common throughout the Heavenly Court; it was not a celestial alchemical art handed out by the court itself.
After placing each immortal herb into the alchemy furnace, Jiang Wang did not immediately add the final ingredient—Tushan Fox blood.
Instead, he took out a small jade vial.
The vial was crystal clear, with a faintly red blood pearl swirling inside.
“This elixir for Hu Liena is missing just one last ingredient.”
Jiang Wang shook the jade vial gently.
This vial was different from the one previously gifted by the Heavenly Official; it was made from ordinary jade and could only preserve Tushan Fox blood briefly. Long-term storage required a vial made from celestial jade.
Golden Generation of the Martial Soul Hall: “Is this the Tushan Fox blood from one of the Four Great Fox Clans? So exciting! So exciting! If only I had five more spirit stones, I could exchange for one of these elixirs!”
Serpent Queen: “You’re really lucky!”
Useless Seer: “Waaah, I want one too!”
Old Heavenly Master: “Seer, stop it—if you keep going, I’ll start to envy you.”
Useless Seer: “Oh, Old Heavenly Master, you’re invincible in your own world; why envy?”
Old Heavenly Master: “Desire is human nature; I am no saint. Even a celestial lord’s personally crafted elixir is enough to stir envy in anyone.”
Golden Generation of the Martial Soul Hall: “Everyone, don’t envy! Sooner or later, anyone can gather ten spirit stones.”
Useless Seer: “Go away, go away, look at you so happy!”
...
“All right, we’re starting the final step.”
Jiang Wang opened the vial’s lid, and a drop of blood slowly flowed into the alchemy furnace.
The moment the blood touched the furnace, rainbow-colored light suddenly appeared outside it.
The iridescent glow surrounded the furnace, filling the live broadcast with a seductive aura.
Yet within this enchanting aura was a barely perceptible sovereign presence.
This was the power of Tushan Fox blood.
The Tushan Fox naturally possessed enchanting powers far surpassing the Pure Fox or Su Fox; even the Qingqiu Fox could only rival it in this regard.
Besides their innate charm, nearly every Tushan Fox’s bloodline carries a trace of sovereign aura!
Given the right moment, it could transform into the fox king.
Of course, alchemy is not instantaneous; after adding the ingredients, the pill still needs to be refined over time.
“The last step is complete. Now, we just need to carefully guide the medicinal energy to condense into the pill.”
Jiang Wang’s hands danced as golden flames blazed hotter.
At this point, Jiang Wang sighed in relief and confidently said, “Now begins the long refining process. It’s quite dull, so if anyone’s bored, feel free to leave the livestream.”
Previously, using inferior pill-making techniques recorded in the scriptures always caused major problems when condensing all medicinal properties.
A careless mistake would cause the entire furnace to explode. Without extended refining, only a batch of worthless pills was produced.
Golden Generation of the Martial Soul Hall: “I’m so looking forward to the Celestial Lord’s elixir!”
Useless Seer: “Don’t get your hopes up, it’s not for you right away.”
Serpent Queen: “The world’s limit is what it is. No matter how much it’s improved, it won’t change.”
Useless Seer: “Exactly.”
Golden Generation of the Martial Soul Hall: “You’re just jealous.”
Little Spider: “@South Heaven Gate Guard, Celestial Lord, I have a small question for you. When will you be available?”
Seeing Little Spider Peter Parker’s question, Jiang Wang hesitated for a moment.
He worried that Parker might ask him to deal with enemies he currently wished to avoid. After all, the only world in the chat group that made Jiang Wang uneasy was Peter Parker’s—the so-called “Marvel World,” as many called it in their previous life while reading comics.
