Chapter 155: The Ancient Art of Fire Control

Translator: 549690339

Commotion arose among the crowd.

Zhuge Wanqing could no longer worry about anything else, as the refining process of the Mysterious Spirit Elixir was extremely difficult. She couldn’t afford to be distracted and could only suppress her curiosity and focus on alchemy.

Purification serves to eliminate toxins and impurities in medicinal herbs, but longer isn’t always better. Because as the process goes on, there are fewer impurities left, making it harder to remove them, and the process inevitably wastes some of the medicinal liquid, resulting in insufficient efficacy after the elixir is formed.

Therefore, grasping the timing is crucial.

While controlling the flame, Zhuge Wanqing glanced at Qin Changqing out of the corner of her eye.

With a slight tremble of her hand, she almost set off an explosion.

She saw that the flame in Oin Changging’s elixir furnace was soaring, nearly

enveloping the entire furnace.

His fingers were rapidly twisting, controlling the flame with a strange and rhythmic pattern. The flames in the furnace danced like a spinning lotus flower, with petals constantly rotating on the outside and the center being the lotus seed head. Each seed housed a medicinal herb being continuously purified by the flame.

“What is this… What kind of fire control technique is this?!” Zhuge Wanqing’s eyes narrowed.

She had never seen such a unique fire control technique.

About twenty-four herbs were placed on the lotus seed head, allowing for simultaneous purification of twenty-four herbs without mutual interference of medicinal effects.

Her control ability was far inferior to his!

After all, Zhuge Wanqing had tried her best to purify a maximum of seven herbs at a time.

And yet, Qin Changqing could work with twenty-four herbs at once.

There was just no comparison!

“How strange, I’ve never heard of such a purification technique,” several ancient alchemists exclaimed in astonishment.

If Zhuge Wanqing didn’t recognize it, they wouldn’t have a clue either.

As they discussed, they noticed Qin Changqing suddenly change his hand seals, and the petals of the lotus began to contract inward. In a short time, it became a closed lotus bud.

His hand seals changed again.

The raging flames burned outside the bud, causing the temperature to soar drastically.

Rumbling…

The elixir furnace started to tremble violently.

“It’s going to explode!” cried the crowd in alarm.

However, the furnace didn’t blow up. The change in the intensity of the flames was jaw-dropping, given that under normal circumstances, the furnace would have exploded long ago.

Qin Changqing remained calm, intently watching the bud standing in the furnace.

Oddly enough, as time went on, there was not a hint of medicinal fragrance coming from the furnace.

Under normal circumstances, after the purification stage and during the fusion stage, medicinal effects would be released, and the fragrance would follow. The stronger the fragrance, the more medicinal effects are disseminated.

Naturally, this would affect the final formation of the elixir.

Even Zhuge Wanqing, who had tried her best, had a significant amount of fragrance emitted.

The higher the grade of the elixir, even the slightest trace of it could waft a great distance.

“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would have suspected that he just wrapped a ball of fire in that flower bud,” someone couldn’t help but say.

It was strange, too strange.

From the beginning of Qin Changqing’s alchemy process, they had become unable to understand what was going on.

Even though they were all alchemists.

However, Qin Changqing’s alchemy process had subverted some of their common knowledge.

The main difference was his unique method of alchemy.

Rumbling!!

The shaking of the elixir furnace became more and more violent.

It seemed as if the power within the bud was constantly struggling and expanding.

Finally, after about half an incense stick’s worth of time, the furnace slowly stabilized.

Qin Changqing exhaled softly, turning his head to look at Zhuge Wanqing, and gave her a faint smile, “Miss Zhuge, you’re a bit slow.”He has already finished refining it.

However, the flower bud has not yet opened. Using this device to lock the elixir prevents the medicinal effect from dispersing.

Zhuge Wanqing didn’t speak, as she had just finished quenching all the herbs and was at the crucial moment of condensing the elixir.

Though she was slow in refining the herbs and condensing the elixir, she was much faster than most alchemists.

Finally, after nearly an hour, Zhuge Wanqing successfully condensed the elixir.

Bang!

The power released during the condensing process caused the elixir furnace to explode. Zhuge Wanqing called the elixir into her hand and turned to look at Qin Changqing.

“Master Qin, it’s your turn,” she said.

Qin Changqing laughed lightly, “What do you think of the outcome, Miss Zhuge?”

“What do you think?” Zhuge Wanqing countered.

“The Mysterious Spirit Elixir, a top-tier Tier 4 Lower-Level Elixir, can help people break their Heart Devils and is a valuable elixir that is very hard to find,” said Qin Changqing.

Cultivators inevitably carry karmic obstructions, which can give rise to Heart Devils in their hearts. Once these reach a certain level, they can hinder cultivation and even lead to deviation.

Elixirs capable of dispelling Heart Devils are quite rare.

Of course, the elixir’s grade wouldn’t be low either.

Zhuge Wanqing tried to see any regret or loss in Qin Changqing’s eyes, but she failed.

Could even the Mysterious Spirit Elixir not secure a victory?

Under the gazes of everyone, the flower bud in Qin Changqing’s elixir furnace slowly opened, and the red petals fell off one by one, revealing an elixir located where the lotus seedpod should be.

This elixir was much larger than ordinary ones, big and round, and white. It exuded a mysterious elixir rhyme within its whiteness. As the petals fell, a strong medicinal fragrance instantly filled the entire square.

“A Top-grade Elixir!”

Everyone was stunned upon seeing the elixir’s rhyme.

“This…” Zhuge Wanqing was astonished, “Is this really a Top-grade Elixir?

What kind of elixir is this?”

“This is the Fireless Void Elixir,” a voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone’s eyes turned.

Unknowingly, an additional person had appeared on the square.

Qin Changqing was startled and looked at the gray-robed old man who had appeared next to him,

“Who are you?”

“Elder Ye!?”

The people from the Danqing Pavilion exclaimed.

Zhuge Wanqing hastily bowed, “Greetings, Elder Ye.”

The gray-robed old man didn’t speak, his eyes fixed on the elixir in the furnace ‘blooming’ before him.

“The Fireless Void Elixir can help a person break through the elixir stage and form their Nascent Soul. Although its effects are slightly inferior to the Disaster-Alleviating Golden Elixir, this elixir has long been lost, and no one knows how to refine it, at least not within Tianchuan State… Boy, how did you learn to refine it?” The old man looked at Qin Changqing.

Suddenly, Qin Changqing felt his entire body’s vitality locked down, unable to move even an inch.

Expert!

Even stronger than someone at the Nascent Soul Realm!

“Greetings, Senior Ye.” Jin Tianxia hurriedly stepped in front of Qin Changqing and bowed, “Senior, Changqing is a disciple of my Lingxiao Sect, and his master is Peak Leader Dao of MO Jiuzhou.”

“Dao Wuju? So it’s that old fellow.” Elder Ye’s eyebrows furrowed, as he withdrew his power, “I see; the fire control technique you learned was also taught by him? One Flower Blossoms Five Leaves, I didn’t expect to be fortunate enough to witness such a legendary fire control technique.”

“One Flower Blossoms Five Leaves?”

The surrounding alchemists all showed puzzled expressions.

They had never heard of the Fireless Void Elixir.

Nor had they heard of this fire control technique.

“Elder Ye, what is One Flower Blossoms Five Leaves?” Zhuge Wanqing asked.

“It’s an ancient fire control technique.” Elder Ye had once seen a description of this technique in an ancient scroll. It can greatly increase the speed and quality of alchemy. The “five leaves” are actually a way of expressing the count, referring to the five fingers of a hand. When the five fingers are spread out, they can control the heavens and earth and contain everything. Therefore, “five leaves” refer to countless possibilities.

Exaggeratingly speaking, as long as one learns this alchemy technique, one can simultaneously refine countless types of medicinal materials.

Of course, everyone has limited power. Even if you are extremely proficient, it is impossible to truly reach ‘countless’.

Not to mention ‘countless’, because of this alchemy technique’s shocking nature, the number of those who have inherited and mastered it are even fewer. Over time, it gradually disappeared in the world of alchemy.

Elder Ye never thought that he would see it at this small alchemy competition..
