Chapter 279: Junior Alchemist (5)

With the addition of heavenly spirit water, the assistance of the Little Divine Dragon's Samadhi True Fire, and the aid of the purple fire medicine cauldron, if she still failed the refinement, even she herself would not be able to forgive herself.

Therefore, no matter what, she was unwilling to let failure occur.

Su Luo narrowed her eyes, the Spiritual Qi within her body fluctuating slowly. The fiery Spiritual Qi in her palm surged into the Medicine Cauldron layer by layer through the dragon's mouth, and the flames inside the Medicine Cauldron rolled and burned continuously.

Su Luo narrowed her eyes, carefully manipulating the boisterous clusters of flames inside the purple fire medicine cauldron, soothing them as if she were pacifying naughty, rowdy little fire imps.

Under her soothing, those flames that had been darting around in disorder obediently lowered their heads, aligning themselves neatly and flickering in rhythm.

"Can I really control the flames?" Su Luo looked at her palm with some pleasant surprise, the corners of her mouth slowly curling up, her mood becoming quite good.

According to the "Junior Alchemist Manual," those who have not yet entered the gate must go through countless tempering, exploration, failure, and realization before they can control flames at will. Being able to control flames is the basic skill of a Junior Alchemist.

However, she had only just tried it for the first time, and yet she was already able to control the flames.

In that case, she had already touched the threshold of a Junior Alchemist. Su Luo felt secretly happy, but she forced herself to calm down, because this was merely the beginning. There were harder things waiting for her to do later, and she could not afford to slack off in the slightest.

Slowly, Su Luo began to realize the wonderful benefits of this purple fire medicine cauldron.

This purple fire medicine cauldron seemed to be very familiar with her Spiritual Qi. After her Spiritual Qi flames entered, the resistance encountered was minimal, almost completely unobstructed.

Su Luo focused all her attention on controlling the temperature of the flames and refining the vitality of the medicinal herbs.

Within Su Luo's perception, the medicinal herbs, heavenly spirit water, and Samadhi True Fire inside the Medicine Cauldron were undergoing strange changes.

Under the tempering of the flames, various active herbs were quietly undergoing all sorts of changes. The vitality of each type of herb was stimulated one by one, combining with each other in pairs, and interchanging in combinations. Su Luo remained fully focused, constantly calculating the pharmacology within.

Finally, Su Luo made a rough calculation; there were actually over a hundred types of Fusion among these herbs.

It was only an Elementary spiritual essence pill, yet it had so many subtle combinations. If it were later on, heaven knows how complex it would be. A Grandmaster Alchemist was truly an existence one could look up to but never reach.

Su Luo dared not relax for a single moment. She kept her eyes slightly closed, concentrating all her Spiritual Qi and pouring it into the Medicine Cauldron, constantly observing the situation inside.

Suddenly, Su Luo had a bad feeling because she sensed that the medicinal juices inside the Medicine Cauldron, which had originally been docile, were suddenly as if startled. They were darting and fleeing everywhere in terror, leaving Su Luo exhausted as she tried to keep up.

Su Luo forced herself to calm down, feeling carefully, soothing carefully. She had a feeling that it must be because the flames inside the Medicine Cauldron were too weak.

She had always respected her intuition, and her intuition had never been wrong.

In that very instant, Su Luo made her choice.

She reached out and struck the dragon's mouth of the Medicine Cauldron hard. A flame condensed with all her Spiritual Qi gushed out from her palm, rapidly surging into the center of the Medicine Cauldron. The temperature of the flames inside the entire Medicine Cauldron instantly doubled.

Very soon, Su Luo felt that the Spiritual Qi within her body was about to be exhausted.

"Could it be that my first attempt at alchemy is really going to end in failure?"

She refused to accept that!

Su Luo gritted her teeth and persisted.
