Self-struggle starting from Douluo

Qinghuan guessed that the Fire Bodhisattva Pill should have originally been an eighth-grade pill, but was limited by the alchemy techniques and materials, so it had to be the next best thing.

Since “quality” doesn’t work, let’s win with “quantity”!
This is just like doing a math problem. Obviously a formula can solve it, but you insist on counting on your fingers and using a large number of steps to solve it step by step.

If there is even one mistake, the final result will be completely contrary to the original intention.

In Tang Zhen's pill recipe, the complicated process was divided into multiple steps - his original plan was to be responsible for refining the medicinal materials himself, and then ask two seventh-grade alchemists whose souls could withstand the burning of the Nine Dragon Thunder Fire to blend the medicinal properties.

Hundreds of medicinal materials were refined and fused in batches... The test of flame and soul power in alchemy was shared among three people.

It's a clever idea.

……

More than a hundred kinds of spiritual medicines were refined in the flames spewed by the crows at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This scene shocked Tang Zhen.

He was confident that he could use the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire to concentrate nine functions at the same time, split into nine Thunder Fire Dragons, and refine nine kinds of medicinal materials at the same time. This fire control technique definitely surpassed that of most alchemists.

But compared to Qinghuan who was refining hundreds of spiritual medicines at the same time, he suddenly pales in comparison!
Even if he activated the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire, it would take at least a day to refine a batch. But the other party only used... a cup of tea?

The other alchemists were shocked and extremely excited: without a medicine cauldron, they would not need to probe their soul power into the cauldron and feel the changes in the medicinal effects while being roasted by the flames.

Being able to "see" the alchemy process so intuitively will greatly benefit their alchemy skills!

Everyone stared intently, without blinking, afraid of missing a moment.

After the medicinal materials are refined, their medicinal effects are integrated.

Under the power of Qing Huan's soul, more than a hundred kinds of essence medicine liquids slowly gathered and merged...

The energy of heaven and earth gradually changed violently, and a strong medicinal fragrance quietly diffused, making those who smelled it feel relaxed and happy.

Tang Zhen and everyone else were excited. Is the fusion of the medicinal properties about to be completed?

Suddenly, a strong light burst out from the flame, as if it were a solid entity, and it seemed to break through the constraints of the flame.

"Quack quack!"

The crow cried unpleasantly, and the flames it spewed out of its mouth suddenly increased. The scorching temperature even made Tang Zhen take a step back.

"Congeal!"

The violent energy began to calm down, and the strong medicinal fragrance gradually faded - it did not disappear, but was "taken back"!

Whether it is energy or medicinal fragrance, it seems that they were originally released just for everyone to see, but now that they have become pills, they must be taken back.

As if it was struggling in its death throes, the last burst of energy burst out, forming a circle of shock waves that spread in all directions.

There were no more energy fluctuations after that.

In the flames, a pill was taking shape, floating in the flames, and gliding around nimbly.

Above the sky, a dark cloud suddenly appeared without warning. In the dark cloud, thunder rolled, and the silver snake swam in all directions, making a terrifying sound.

"Dan...Dan Lei?"

Tang Zhen was ecstatic and said excitedly: "It's done... He succeeded!"

The other alchemists couldn't help but tremble. They watched the entire process from refining the herbs, fusing the medicinal properties, to finally making the pill.

A seventh-grade elixir was refined in no more than an hour!

Moreover, he even gave up the medicine cauldron, and was relaxed and carefree throughout the process, neither hurried nor slow, as if he was deliberately demonstrating... If the other party had used his full strength, would it have been faster?
"Is this the ninth-grade grandmaster of alchemy?" The two guest elders of Danta looked at each other with horror in their eyes.

……

A round pill with green and red colors flashed nimbly in the flames, but refused to leave the flames.

The dark clouds in the sky gathered, and the silver lightning was ready to strike.

"Hahaha……"

Tang Zhen couldn't contain his joy and laughed loudly, "Master, don't worry, just leave the Dan Lei to me!"

Xiao Yan hurriedly said: "Valley Master, wait a moment, I have a use for Dan Lei!"

Qing Huan and Tang Zhen both looked at him curiously.

Xiao Yan waved his hand, and a puppet flashed out, its entire body silver.

Tang Zhen asked in surprise: "Puppet?"

Qing Huan saw that this was a demon puppet that could grow. He had sneaked into the treasure house with Mang Tian Chi to read it. Nodding to Xiao Yan, Qing Huan said, "Then I'll leave it to you."

Xiao Yan nodded, pointed at the dark clouds in the sky, and said, "Go!"

The demon puppet stomped its feet on the ground suddenly, and its body rose up like a rocket, rushing straight into the calamity cloud.

The robbery cloud seemed to sense the provocation and was ready to attack. The low and loud thunder sound continued to rumble.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a loud thunder exploded. A silver lightning bolt as thick as a thigh tore through the calamity clouds like a giant python and struck the pill in the flames.

Dan Yao dodged and hid directly in the deepest part of the flames.

The demon puppet opened its arms and stood in front of the lightning, allowing it to strike it.

"Oh!"

Countless silver electric currents flashed on the demon puppet's body, constantly penetrating into its interior.

Tang Zhen was shocked and asked, "Is he absorbing the energy of the pill thunder?"

"Boom—boom—boom—"

The calamity clouds rolled, and lightning struck continuously, but they were all blocked by the demon puppet.

Finally, the power of Dan Lei dissipated, the calamity clouds dispersed, and the sky became clear again.

Xiao Yan recalled the demon puppet in surprise and looked at it excitedly.

Qing Huan spread his hands and took the pill out directly from the flame. After taking a look at it, he threw it to Tang Zhen and said, "Valley Master, I have lived up to your trust."

The crow retracted the flame, flapped its wings, and flew away.

Tang Zhen took the pill, exhaled a long breath, and saluted, "Thank you, Grandmaster!"

The alchemists also saluted in unison: "Thank you, Grandmaster!"

Qing Huan waved her hand, stepped off the stage, walked to Xiao Yan, and said with a smile: "This demon puppet is quite good, where did it come from?"

Xiao Yan suddenly looked at Qing Huan with an indescribable look in his eyes.

Qing Huan was stunned: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Yan had a strange expression on his face, and said, "As long as the alchemists in the alliance reach the sixth level, each of them will have a demon puppet!"

Qing Huan: "..."

Xiao Yan said strangely: "The alliance destroyed the Devil Flame Valley and obtained the method of refining demon puppets. Don't you know about this?"

Qinghuan was dumbfounded.

When did this happen? He has no idea!

Xiao Yan laughed, “Hehe”, with a teasing look on his face.

Qing Huan was helpless and said in defense: "You know, I don't care about the alliance..."

Well, he really doesn't care much about the league.

Changing the subject, Qing Huan said, "I have achieved my goal and plan to leave. What about you?"

Xiao Yan put away the demon puppet, thought for a moment, and said, "I will go to Danta to participate in the Alchemist Competition, and strive to enter the top ten and get the opportunity to receive and pay the Three Thousand Flames."

"Okay then, remember to leave a trace of your origin for me."

Qing Huan nodded, paused for a moment, and then asked, "By the way, do you know the news about Cai Lin and Xiao Yi Xian?"

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Zi Yan said she sensed the call of her bloodline, so Queen Medusa went with her. As for Xiao Yixian, she seems to be in the Glacier Valley."

Qing Huan was stunned: "Glacier Valley?"

Xiao Yan nodded and said, “Someone in Glacier Valley has set his sights on Xiao Yixian’s Evil Poison Body. After she dealt with those people, she learned that Glacier Valley has done extensive research on the Evil Poison Body.

She said she wanted to create a technique specifically for the poisonous body, so she went to the Glacier Valley. I don’t know what happened to her afterwards.”

Qing Huan suddenly realized, and said: "Okay, I'll go to the Glacier Valley first... By the way, when I see Mr. Yao Chen, please help me ask where the Yao Clan is."

Xiao Yan asked curiously, "The Yao Clan? The teacher's last name is also Yao... Why are you looking for the Yao Clan?"

Qing Huan said calmly: "The Medicine Clan has two kinds of strange fire, and the Medicine Clan mainly refines medicine. I also want to visit them to exchange ideas." (End of this chapter)
