CHAPTER 401 - MANIA

Holy sh * t! Where was he? Such a huge reaction, is there really a need for it? "

Lin Yiyuan, who was originally indifferent, suddenly cursed. Looking at the black smoke rising from the pill furnace, he wanted to cry, but no tears came out.

Just as Lin Yiyuan was about to get up to avoid the black smoke, something surprising happened.

On the roof of the small alchemy room, several air vents appeared and a powerful suction force came from them, sucking in all the black smoke in the room. In just a few breaths of time, the atmosphere inside the alchemy room returned to normal.

Lin Yiyuan was looking up at the air vents above in a daze, and heard the old Daoist laughing: Nephew Lin need not panic, most of the mechanisms here are made of wood, so they were designed to protect against fire and prevent smoke, especially in this pill refining room, when smoke appears, the mechanisms will activate on their own and let the smoke out.

The old Daoist said all of this, obviously knowing what was going on inside. Furthermore, saying it in such a calm manner only proved that this was a situation that had happened countless times in this building. The more he experienced, the more it became accustomed to it.

Um … I'm fine, don't worry.

After replying, Lin Yiyuan went over to the furnace and opened the lid, and looked at the bottom of the furnace, lost in thought.

Just now, he had just added two portions of medicinal liquid and the furnace already had an intense reaction. Lin Yiyuan felt that this was unbelievable.

Pill refining was like conducting a chemical experiment. Normally, as long as the two ingredients were not mutually exclusive, there would not be much reaction. It would either fuse together, or resist each other.

He had not seen the two different medicinal liquids that Lin Yiyuan had just added before. To Lin Yiyuan, these were two very unfamiliar medicinal herbs, and it was only after seeing the Nameless pill formula s that he understood a little about them. However, after the two different medicinal liquids had encountered each other, they unexpectedly had such a huge reaction, which clearly showed one thing, that they were mutually exclusive and opposing each other.

However, since they were two medicinal herbs with opposing medicinal properties, why did the person who wrote the pill formula put them first?

Lin Yiyuan was puzzled, and gloomily thought of his series of conjectures. He thought that this pill formula was basically just a list of medicinal ingredients, but the old Daoist and his senior brother mistakenly thought that this was a miraculous pill formula.

The idea that the sheepskin paper was actually the list of medicinal ingredients lingered in Lin Yiyuan's mind, but he was not one to give up hope. He immediately thought of another reason, which was probably because there was an error in the amount of medicinal essences he had added, which resulted in this result.

The idea of having the wrong ratio of medicinal liquid replaced the random thoughts in Lin Yiyuan's mind. He sat back down and added the rootless water into the furnace, then heated up the furnace to clean up the residue.

After some work, Lin Yiyuan compared the Nameless pill formula s that were recorded on the books and once again checked the placement of the medicinal liquid. After confirming the sequence, he then began the second round of refinement.

Just like last time, he first heated up the pill furnace and started to add the medicinal liquid. However, this time, he was more careful when he added the medicinal liquid, he carefully calculated the amount of medicinal liquid, and then started to refine it according to the process ….. This process did not last long, before the crackling sounds of explosions came again from inside the pill refining room.

If the method was wrong, no matter how hard you tried, the final result would be the same. No matter how many times you tried, it would be a failure.

Right now, Lin Yiyuan was facing failure after failure, the sound of the furnace exploding would resound once every so often, and every time it sounded, it meant that Lin Yiyuan had revised his refining method yet again, but the result was still the same.

Under another failure, Lin Yiyuan had broken the record of failure in his life. Back then, when he had just started cultivating, he did not have to put in so much effort.

The old Daoist sat outside with his eyes closed. Every time the pill furnace exploded, his eyelids would twitch, but he did not open them. He did not disturb Lin Yiyuan as he sat there quietly, as though he was half asleep.

When dusk approached, and the sound of the furnace exploding had finished, the pill refining room finally fell into silence. Lin Yiyuan finally quieted down and sat in place while pondering, and did not move for a long time.

This silence lasted until the sky turned dark. The lights in the pill refining room suddenly lit up, the faint yellow light was extremely warm, and in the moment the lights were lit, Lin Yiyuan, who had been meditating for a long time, finally moved.

Lin Yiyuan rubbed his eyes that were dried from the smoke, then turned to look at the bottle on the ground.

He spent the entire day in defeat, the shadow of failure was like a black cloud pressing down on him, enveloping the sky above Lin Yiyuan.

Failing time and time again would make anyone feel depressed and angry. Although Lin Yiyuan cultivated the Dao to refine the heart, in the end he had not reached the Transcending Mortality Stage, and was only a mortal.

Lin Yiyuan didn't know how Edison faced failure after failure in the process of creating the light bulb, but he was sure that Edison was also a person. He would also have emotions, not like in the myths in the movies, where he could always face everything calmly.

At the moment, standing in front of the pill furnace, Lin Yiyuan looked calm on the surface, but in truth, his heart was burning with rage. Looking at the beautiful pill furnace, the anger in his heart had reached its peak, and suddenly he bent down, ignoring everything else, and poured all the medicinal liquid into the furnace.

Lin Yiyuan did something unexpected with his fury, so the old Daoist simply did not see anything. Otherwise, his expression would have definitely changed, it was normal for him to scold Lin Yiyuan that he was a madman.

Pill refining required a gradual process, which was a process of refining and fusing the ingredients together according to the effects of the ingredients. For example, when Lin Yiyuan placed all the ingredients into one furnace, there were usually two results: either the furnace would explode, or the poison pill would be refined.

The explosive furnaces here were different from the ones in the past. This was a true explosive furnace. It was possible that even the pill furnaces would be blown into smithereens, and even the apothecaries would be in trouble here.

But Lin Yiyuan did not understand any of this, it was only because he was angry that he would do such an action. If it was an experienced pill refiner, no matter how angry he was, he would at most destroy the pill furnace.

At this moment, Lin Yiyuan no longer had any worries, he did not care about the medicinal properties or quantity of medicine, he immediately poured all of them into the furnace, then sat cross-legged and activated the Everburning Flame.

The scorching flames continued to rise as the temperature of the alchemy lab instantly rose. Waves of heat surged in all directions, and the old Daoist, who was sitting outside the door, could not help but feel his eyelids twitch when he felt the change in temperature. He was clearly shocked, but the old Daoist did not know what exactly had happened inside the alchemy lab.

CHAPTER 402 - UNFORMED PILL

The pill refining room was as hot and stuffy as a boiler room, and the outside was also affected. The old Daoist, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, was sweating profusely.

In the Pill Refining Room, Lin Yiyuan was in an even more sorry state. Sweat was rolling down his body, his Spirit Dao Robe was completely soaked in water, with a twist, he could squeeze out water from it, but he did not care about it. He only stared at the Pill Refining Furnace with all his heart, competing with it, his mind was completely preoccupied with it.

On the contrary, the pill furnace was abnormally quiet. This change surprised Lin Yiyuan, because before this, every time the furnace opened, it would only take 10 minutes to explode, but this time, there was no explosion.

Holy shit, why didn't they explode?

Lin Yiyuan muttered in his heart, he looked straight at the pill furnace, waiting for a familiar sound to come from inside.

He waited for half an hour, but the result was unexpected. The pill furnace had been quiet, as though it was frightened by Lin Yiyuan's cruel actions. It did not make the slightest sound, and just stood there quietly, without any reaction.

Lin Yiyuan's suspicions grew, his eyes that were drenched in sweat stared straight at the pill furnace, he did not move an inch.

At the beginning, he was only sulking because of the competition with the pill furnace, but now, he was completely different. He paid attention to the reaction of the furnace, and a faint sense of expectation arose in his heart.

The anticipation was very long at times, and behind it, there were usually concealed surprises that were hard to predict. Lin Yiyuan had this kind of premonition, that a pleasant surprise might appear in the next second.

After waiting for more than two hours, Lin Yiyuan suddenly remembered a very popular phrase on the web — If you are willing to persevere, if you dare to persevere, clenching your teeth, a miracle might happen in the next second.

But he was unable to predict exactly which second would happen in the next, and Lin Yiyuan was willing to wait. He knew that this wait would not be too long, and there would definitely be a result.

With such a firm conviction, Lin Yiyuan controlled the flames and continued to burn the pill furnace. It was extremely inconceivable, the quality of the pill refining furnace was truly not covered, and under this continuous fierce fire, there were actually no problems at all. The patterns on the furnace remained undamaged, and there were no signs of it melting.

The quality of the pill furnace gave Lin Yiyuan a lot of confidence. At the very least, he did not need to worry so much about the pill furnace burning down.

At this moment, he had a strong premonition that this nameless pill might be a type of extremely unique pill, its medicinal properties were not normal, and accordingly, the refining method would be different. If he were to refine it according to the rules, he would fail instead.

Although Lin Yiyuan had formed a series of conjectures, he was very clear that whether or not it was the case, he still needed the final results to verify. If it was as he had thought, then why did the mystery of why no one was able to successfully refine it before Lin Yiyuan had been revealed?

The refining continued until late at night. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the sky was covered by dark clouds. It was obvious that it was going to rain.

Most of the rain these days would come late at night, and after daybreak, the sun would rise as usual and the heat of the day would wash away the coolness of the night. Thus, midnight was also the coolest time of the day.

However, the temperature of the fire was extremely terrifying, blocking the cool air outside. The pill refining room was like a furnace, to the point that Lin Yiyuan was unable to tell when the change in temperature was, and whether it was day or night.

While he was in a daze, Lin Yiyuan suddenly smelled a light and strange fragrance which instantly woke him up. In that moment, Lin Yiyuan's mind became extremely clear, his eyes shone with a bright light, he stared straight at the pill furnace, and did not move an inch.

The old Daoist's nose was very sensitive. The moment the fragrance overflowed from the pill furnace, he suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head to look at the pill refining room. His eyes were filled with shock.

Could it be that this kid really refined a medicinal pill?

The old Daoist murmured in amazement.

In truth, the old Daoist did not have much hope for Lin Yiyuan to concoct the pill previously, but he had a sliver of luck in his heart. Even though he had failed countless times before, none of the alchemists that came to invite him succeeded.

If he persisted for too long, he would eventually become numb. Right now, the old Daoist was like this, but the sudden fragrance of the pill had awoken his numb heart. He found it hard to control himself as he began to pace back and forth outside the door.

Lin Yiyuan who was in the pill refining room was completely unaware of everything. It was already the critical moment, so he carefully took care of the current situation, controlling the Li Huo to slowly lower the temperature.

This time, the nourishing medicinal pellet took two days. After Lin Yiyuan retracted the fire, the meteorite quickly cooled down, lifted the lid and looked down at the pill furnace. The surprise that he had been waiting for for for a long time made Lin Yiyuan extremely shocked.

There was actually a layer of paste in the furnace, which made Lin Yiyuan's expression freeze.

It actually didn't form into a pill? How could this be?

Lin Yiyuan could not understand no matter how he thought about it.

After looking for a long time, Lin Yiyuan finally recovered from his shock. He dipped his finger in the medicinal liquid and placed it near his mouth, extending his tongue to lick it.

The moment the medicine liquid came in contact with his tongue, a cool, mint like smell pervaded the air, it was extremely refreshing. The heat in Lin Yiyuan's body was immediately dispelled, his entire body was in high spirits, as though he had drank a large mouthful of ice beer in the middle of the night.

An ice-cold feeling spread from the tip of his tongue all the way to the bottom of his heart.

Just as Lin Yiyuan was about to sigh emotionally, he suddenly felt an electric numbness in his dantian. Then, as if he was set ablaze, the two feelings alternated at the bottom of his heart as Lin Yiyuan's expression drastically changed.

How could this be?

Lin Yiyuan asked himself in his heart, but he was unable to figure out what was going on. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately sat down cross-legged and started chanting an incantation to open his eyes and examine his dantian.

With his Dharma Eyes, the changes in his Dantian became a scene in Lin Yiyuan's mind.

Now that Lin Yiyuan was a genuine expert of legal realm, he could cultivate a Magic Eye and an Orb. These were all paths that must be followed by a cultivator, so there was nothing strange about it.

The source of fire was stationed below the Orb in Lin Yiyuan's Dantian, and continued to refine and refine the Orb day and night, so much so that the Orb began to evolve towards the Jindan, and the most important factor supporting Li Huo's growth was the Spiritual Qi.

Before he went to Thailand, Lin Yiyuan did not have much knowledge about spirit energy, and it was only limited to what was written in the ancient records.

But the process of collecting spirit energy was extremely slow, and required Lin Yiyuan to continue cultivating the Deflection of Fire. However, the further down the path, the harder it was to cultivate the Deflection of Fire, to the point that Lin Yiyuan was still unable to comprehend the Eight Trigrams Formation technique.

Whether or not he could evolve a higher level formation would determine when he could refine the Spirit Gu, and also determine Long Xiaowei's life and death.

However, his technique was stagnant, making Lin Yiyuan anxious and helpless. He tried countless of methods to break through this bottleneck, but in the end, he unintentionally discovered that refining pills could slightly improve his technique.

Although concocting pills did not increase his cultivation technique by much, it was still better than staying still. Lin Yiyuan continued to concoct pills crazily with the attitude that he would have to work hard to make ends meet, but even so, his progress was still not very great.

Just a moment ago, after consuming a little bit of the green medicinal liquid, the source of fire inside Lin Yiyuan's dantian had a reaction to it, rising up, Lin Yiyuan could feel that Li Huo had become stronger.

CHAPTER 403 - OPPORTUNITY GIFT

The green liquid medicine that was refined was extremely cool and refreshing. When Lin Yiyuan licked up a little bit, it immediately caused a violent reaction in his Dantian.

The source of fire and the green medicinal liquid resonated with each other and after they fused, the source of fire actually strengthened a little. Although the change was not too great, it was still comparable to a month's worth of pills refined by Lin Yiyuan.

So, this is a recipe for concocting spirit liquids. Previously, the Daoist priest and the other alchemists thought that it was a pill formula, so they walked into the wrong zone and used a concocting method to concoct it, and so they failed.

Lin Yiyuan pondered.

After figuring out the causal link, the corner of Lin Yiyuan's mouth rose into an arc. He felt lucky for his dog shit luck, but at the same time, he sat down cross-legged and started consuming the green liquid medicine.

The old Daoist outside was anxious to the extreme as he paced around the pill refining room, from time to time he would glance towards the door, hoping that Lin Yiyuan would come out faster.

It's been so long, why hasn't this kid come out yet? Regardless of whether you succeed or fail, at the very least, you have to say it out loud!

The old dao was cursing in his heart, but Lin Yiyuan did not care about that, and was happily raising his cultivation.

Sometimes, if an opportunity came, if he did not hurry and grab it, he would definitely regret it in the future. Rather than waiting for Long Xiaowei to get so sick that she was about to die, she might as well take off his face and stick it under her shoes.

Moreover, the old Daoist has a lot of medicinal ingredients in his possession, and with Lin Yiyuan being able to master the correct method to refine them, he was not worried that he would not be able to concoct the medicinal essences, but what he had hidden would not affect the old Daoist's proper business. Under this kind of situation where both were perfect, there was no reason for Lin Yiyuan to ask him to follow the standards of a saint.

Secondly, Lin Yiyuan attributed half of the credit towards the heavens for this opportunity. According to his theory, if the heavens had not intentionally granted him the credit, he would not have been so lucky to successfully refine the Spirit Liquid.

Before this, who knew how many people had tried to refine this recipe yet none of them had succeeded, but Lin Yiyuan being able to succeed so easily proved that everything was there, and there was no need for him to explain anything.

With all these thoughts and ideas, Lin Yiyuan finally convinced himself and calmly swallowed the spirit liquid he just refined.

The spirit liquid had just left the furnace and was fresh. As it entered Lin Yiyuan's mouth, it turned into a gust of cool air that entered Lin Yiyuan's dantian and was absorbed by the source of fire, fusing together and slowly strengthening the Li Huo's power.

In the beginning, Lin Yiyuan had failed many times, resulting in him not having too much medicinal liquid during the refining process, and the amount of spirit liquid that was refined was even more pitifully small, it was not even enough for him to use to fill the gaps in his teeth. Furthermore, Lin Yiyuan was clear, the medicinal fragrance just now spread outwards, the old Daoist must have smelt it, as long as this old man was not foolish, he would have already known that Lin Yiyuan had already concocted the so-called pills.

Because of this, Lin Yiyuan purposely left a small portion of the spirit liquid inside the small jade bottle, but he did not keep much, and had kept quite a bit, so if he left too much, he might be able to cure the old dao's senior brother, and at that time, the old dao would not recognize him, and would not allow him to continue refining, which would be a huge loss.

After considering everything, Lin Yiyuan adjusted the Qi in his body, and ignored his sorry state, opening the door and walking out.

Creak!

The sound of the door opening was extremely piercing to the ears. The old Daoist turned his head abruptly, and upon seeing the old Daoist's violent reaction, Lin Yiyuan knew in his heart that this old man must have known about the matter of refining the pill successfully. At the same time, he was laughing inside, cursing the old Daoist for not acting too quickly, and turning his neck.

As he was thinking about this, Lin Yiyuan did not say it out loud. His face was exhausted, and his appearance was as if he had been severely drained of his body seven times a night, and had become dispirited only after his spirit had faded.

How is Nephew Lin?

The old Daoist was completely focused on the Nameless pill formula, and ignored Lin Yiyuan's listless and weak state. He did not even say a word of concern, and directly asked about the refining situation.

Lin Yiyuan did not care about his concern, and did not have much of a reaction. He picked up his tired eyelids, and handed the small jade bottle over to him: "I will not fail you.

With that, Lin Yiyuan handed the jade bottle over.

You've worked hard! It's been hard on you …"

The old Daoist could not wait to receive the jade bottle, and when he expressed his thanks he did not even meet Lin Yiyuan's gaze, as though he was talking to himself. However, his voice was quickly cut off, and as he stared at the viscous liquid in the jade bottle, the excitement on his face was replaced with astonishment.

Lin Yiyuan forced a smile and sighed: That recipe is not really a pill formula, at the beginning, I was also misled. I refined it according to the pill refining standards, and the result must have been heard by you outside, then I thought to myself, to attempt to modify the refining method, and I got lucky and succeeded, only leaving behind this small amount of medicinal liquid. It's a pity that I wasted so many medicinal ingredients, it's really a pity …

In comparison to the medicinal herbs Lin Yiyuan had used today, the land that the old Daoist had been wasting for the past ten or so years, might even be able to buy a few large courtyard houses in the capital. If they were to be combined, they could be made into a single alley.

Nephew Lin, you really make me sweat a lot! Ever since Senior Brother fell ill, not only did I have to consume medicinal herbs, but I also have ten years to live! If I hadn't coincidentally met nephew, I might have had to wait another ten years. Therefore, you don't have to be too modest. With nephew's skill in alchemy, I truly hate myself for not being able to get to know you sooner. Sigh …"

The old Daoist let out a sigh.

Dao leader, you flatter me. Junior truly cannot accept such praise.

Lin Yiyuan modestly said, and then changed the subject: You should go and test the medicine on that Taoist first! I'll rest for a while. If this liquid is effective, I'll continue to refine it according to the method. If it is ineffective, I'll continue to study it.

Only after walking a few steps did he turn around and remind Lin Yiyuan, Nephew, remember what I said before. This is a safe zone, after I get down, you must not walk around as you please to avoid being accidentally injured by the mechanisms.

After instructing the old dao for a while, he went downstairs. After he left, Lin Yiyuan sat down cross legged and started to recuperate to check the changes in his cultivation.

As the source of fire gradually strengthened, the Orb in Lin Yiyuan's Dantian burned even more fiercely. The impurities hidden deep within the Orb were refined and turned into black qi that seeped into every single pore on Lin Yiyuan's body, and flowed out along with the sweat.

As the impurities in the inner core decreased, the golden spots on the surface of the inner core became denser, and the Fa Li stored inside the inner core became more and more pure.

At this time, because of the existence of the source of fire, Lin Yiyuan's dantian seemed to have become a cauldron, the interior was warm and the heat roasted his internal organs, refining the blood in his veins, forcing the poison and impurities out of his blood.

So this is the second round?

Lin Yiyuan could clearly feel his pores squirming and expanding, as well as the comfortable feeling of the filth seeping out.

A terrible stench was lingering at the tip of his nose, but Lin Yiyuan was not worried about the image at all, or whether the old Taoist would notice anything when he came up, he was not worried at all, as his image had long been obscured by the smoke from the explosion. After mixing with the sweat, Lin Yiyuan looked like an African who had not taken a bath in twenty years.

CHAPTER 404 - DEPIGMENTATION

The old Daoist quickly left and returned. When he returned, his face was brimming with a smile, and he appeared exceptionally happy.

When he arrived in front of Lin Yiyuan, the old Daoist said excitedly: Nephew Lin, you're really my upper view's lucky star! I don't know how to thank you.

Speaking till here, the old Daoist changed the topic and proposed a way to be grateful: I've thought about it, since you're the only one in the White Cloud Monastery, if you don't mind, how about you come to the upper view? I will accept you as my personal disciple.

Furthermore, he had already graduated a year ago, this meant that he could be independent. Moreover, he was not familiar with the old Daoist, and did not understand his character at all. If one were to compare, Lin Yiyuan's ability might even surpass the old Daoist's.

After considering all these factors, there simply wasn't a single reason that could cause Lin Yiyuan to vote for someone else.

Thank you for your kind intentions. I am a naive, rough and crude person, it is better for me to stay in the White Cloud Monastery.

Lin Yiyuan slandered himself for a bit, then changed the topic: In addition to master's grace, I am the only one left in White Cloud Monastery, if I leave, the Incense Fire Legacy would also end, how could something like this be worthy of my previous master?

Lin Yiyuan had already said all that and the old Daoist could only sigh in vain, but he did not give up, and continued: I sincerely want to recruit you as my disciple, but the force of my request is not sweet, but what I have said first, the door to the upper view will always be open for you, and as long as you are willing to come in, the position of the head disciple of my upper view will be yours.

The temptations continued, but Lin Yiyuan was not moved. He had already said that if he rejected her offer, it would be unsuitable for him to replay, and that would be a bit disgraceful.

Thank you for your love. I have no way to repay you, so I can only use pill refining to express my gratitude.

Lin Yiyuan changed the topic, and also changed the Old Daoist's attention.

Alright, then I'll be troubling you.

The old, experienced Daoist knew that Lin Yiyuan was unwilling to continue entangled with the topic of becoming his disciple, so he followed the flow and did not bring up this matter anymore.

Lin Yiyuan nodded his head, and then turned around to prepare the medicinal ingredients. This time, Lin Yiyuan's movements were very fast, he did not choose and choose all the ingredients carefully, but he grabbed a handful of all the ingredients, and ran back and forth like a carrier. He took all the required ingredients into the pill refining room, and then closed the door and started refining the medicinal liquid.

With the help of his previous experience, Lin Yiyuan was extremely confident that he would be able to refine the pill as easily as he would have been able to. He quickly refined the medicinal liquid into a medicinal liquid, and the process took almost an entire day.

After refining the medicinal liquid, Lin Yiyuan only rested for less than half an hour, then he started to refine the spirit liquid, just like last time, he poured all the medicinal liquid into the furnace and used a fierce fire to boil it.

This time, the medicinal liquid was very abundant. He could even hear the bubbling sound of the medicinal liquid within the pill furnace as the fire rose.

The liquid continued to boil for five to six hours. Gradually, the sound began to become dull, not as crisp as it was at the beginning. This meant that the water in the liquid was slowly evaporated and became thicker.

could not help but laugh bitterly at the process, he felt like an old lady who was making soup, only that the other party was using a clay pot or a hot pot with soup, and he was using a pill furnace, but the thing that was undeniable was, regardless of what tools he was using, his final goal was the same, without any technical content at all.

After the second bottle was out, Lin Yiyuan placed all the spirit liquid into the bottle, and added the rest into the furnace, and then threw the charcoal into the pit below the furnace. He threw out the fire and ignited the charcoal, and started to swallow the spirit liquid to raise his cultivation.

To Lin Yiyuan, this cultivation session could be described with an idiom, it was called — Satisfying and Satisfying.

The more spirit liquid he swallowed, the more rapid the progress of the Deflection of Fire would be. On the evening of the second day, Lin Yiyuan felt that the source of fire had grown noticeably, the power of the flames were several times stronger than before, but the key point was that the color of the Everlasting Fire had changed, from the original bluish-green colour to a pure green color.

The jade green color of its entire body carried a hint of a transparent feeling. Although it was a ball of flame, the color gave off a refreshing feeling, as if it could wake one up from their stupor with just a glance.

Lin Yiyuan was very clear that this was just an illusion. Behind this cool sense of vision, what was hidden was actually the ability to burn and destroy everything.

Eight Trigrams Spirit Convergence Array! Success or failure will be decided in one strike, do not disappoint me. "

Lin Yiyuan thought in his heart, then raised Activating the Flame Mantra, the pure green fire flew up into the air and released a dazzling light aura, illuminating the entire pill refining room with its green luster, making it look extremely mysterious.

Under Lin Yiyuan's control, the pure green fire was split into eight and connected head to tail in the air, forming a circular ring of fire that slowly rotated.

Lin Yiyuan then used his will to control all eight of the flames at the same time, intertwining with each other, as though piercing through flowers, and interweaving in the air, forming a circular fire web. The moment the fire web was formed, all eight flames returned to their respective positions, flying back to the edge of the fire circle, and started to spin extremely fast.

Lin Yiyuan did not show any surprise on his face. Instead, he had a solemn expression on, because at this moment, he had reached the critical point, where he had failed the last few times.

The reason for the initial failure was mainly because the [Li Huo] itself was too weak and unstable. After separating, it could not last for long, and before Lin Yiyuan could continue to control it, the eight separated clusters of [Li Huo] s were extinguished in an instant.

And now that Lin Yiyuan had consumed a large amount of Spirit Liquid, his source of fire had gained an unprecedented level of growth, and was more than ten times stronger than before. This was the benefit of the Spirit Liquid.

The Fiery Eight Trigram Formation in the sky started to spin faster and faster, until there was only the shadow of a round flame left in the air. As the formation rotated, it also gave off whistling sounds, as well as sizzling sounds as the air was burnt.

Actually, the temperature in the alchemy room was already very high. With the formation of the Eight Trigrams Spirit Convergence Array, the power of the flame would be able to cause the already high temperature air to emit sizzling sounds.

Lin Yiyuan focused on the array, every so often he would add a flame into the array, and the flame inside was like fuel used to activate the array, the more he added, the stronger the array would become.

Finally, at some point, the Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation was formed by Li Huo, and the moment it was formed, the temperature of the entire pill refining room rose up sharply, Lin Yiyuan who was sitting cross-legged below felt the heat wave blowing against his face, and in that instant, he smelt a burnt smell, the smell of burning hair.

CHAPTER 405 - UNEXPECTED FAILURE

The scorching heat almost made Lin Yiyuan's hair burn, and in a moment of desperation, he grabbed a bottle of rootless water and sprinkled it on his head.

Holy sh * t, your reaction is too big!

Lin Yiyuan cursed in his heart, at the same time, the Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation was completely formed, the temperature in the small space instantly rose, and spread outwards.

However, the person who designed this pill concocting room was too meticulous, not even leaving a crack. No matter how hard the old Daoist tried, he could not see through it.

Just when the old Daoist was disappointed, a scorching heat spread through the small gap beside the door, and as if he was being pressured, it shot out from the gap. The old Daoist was unable to escape, his white beard, hair, and face were hit by the heat, and burned down.

Wuliang, that Empyrean!

The old Daoist let out a weird cry like a frightened rabbit. He jumped two meters behind, staggered a few meters back, and finally held his nose as he stood firmly.

The old Daoist was being punished for his curiosity, and Lin Yiyuan was in deep water and suffering from it. The rootless water that was poured on his head was evaporated, and her hair started to curl up, becoming loose and fluffy, and her hair started to explode.

In order to control the formation array and protect his hair, Lin Yiyuan decisively chose to use the formation array. He no longer bothered with his own precious hair and allowed the high temperature to burn his smooth hair down.

After a period of preparation, when the energy reached its peak, the Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation was finally completely formed. At that moment, the formation created a huge suction force with the Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation as the center. The formation was like a bottomless black hole, swallowing the air currents in all directions.

Lin Yiyuan knew the operating principle of the formation. If he allowed the formation to absorb as much as it wanted, then the more energy it could gather, the stronger it would release. If the formation could reach the boundary that the Pill Refining Room could not handle, then the entire Pill Refining Room would very likely be burnt to ashes in an instant.

When he thought about this, Lin Yiyuan's face changed, and he immediately retracted the control array, forcibly halting the devouring process.

The moment the devouring stopped, the array formation stopped, it paused in the air, then began to spin backwards, faster and faster, until the entire array formation turned into an afterimage, at the center of the array formation spewed out green flames, the flames burned everywhere, wherever the flames passed, everything in the pill refining room was set ablaze.

The entire alchemy lab began to tremble as if there was an earthquake, shaking it fearfully.

At first, Lin Yiyuan was pleasantly surprised by the scene of destruction, but he was immediately shaken awake. Looking at the sea of fire around him, he cursed in his heart and quickly used a secret art to retrieve the Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation.

The alchemy lab finally quietened down. Only the aftershocks from the inborn earth shaking mountains were still trembling slightly. However, the magnitude of the tremors became smaller and smaller, until it completely disappeared.

Lin Yiyuan sat paralyzed on the ground, and subconsciously he reached out to stroke his head, only then did he realize that all his hair was gone.

From the time Lin Yiyuan was born until now, apart from being born, he had always been a bald man with long hair, he had already gotten used to the image of holding onto a chignon. It was only until he descended the mountain a year ago, in order to adapt to life at the foot of the mountain and assimilate his chignon into the lives of ordinary people that he cut off his hairstyle, in order to prevent others from treating him like a monkey.

It was not because Lin Yiyuan's mental state was not strong enough, but because of a normal person's reaction, and the so called fearsome words, to be able to live all day under the strange gazes of others, he similarly would not feel comfortable. In order to better integrate himself into society, Lin Yiyuan decided to cut his hair.

The rules of the Taoist religion were, to a large extent, relatively loose. This responded to the nature of the Taoism.

The Tao technique mainly focused on cultivating the mind and pursuing the state of mind. Other than during festivals where the price was higher than normal, such as when you were doing things, or when you were paying respects to your ancestors, you usually did not pay much attention to your appearance.

Lin Yiyuan did not go against the rules and regulations, because his goal was to go around and cultivate his mind. As long as he could improve himself, it would be a type of cultivation.

It was not that he deliberately kept his hair, it was just that he was too busy, so busy concocting pills that he did not have time to take care of his hair. In the end, his hair slowly grew longer, and even though it was a few months, Lin Yiyuan did not feel anything.

At this time, the hair on his head had been completely burnt off. Lin Yiyuan was just not used to it, so he did not have any special feelings towards it.

Touching his bald head, Lin Yiyuan laughed bitterly, he ignored him and sat down to recuperate, then looked at the pill furnace. After that incident, all of the Spirit Qi that was floating out of the pill furnace disappeared.

After carefully grabbing the air for a while, Lin Yiyuan finally locked onto the faint fragrance, but it was only faintly discernable. The reason it was like this was because the Qi in the furnace had not completely calmed down, and there were still some ripples, causing the Spirit Qi in the furnace to be drawn in, and become erratic.

Fortunately, the instability in the air had calmed down, and in a moment of effort, Lin Yiyuan managed to catch a trace of the familiar Qi, but he frowned, and sniffed around carefully, only to realize that there was a change in the Qi.

What's going on? Is it burnt to a crisp?

Lin Yiyuan smelled a faint burnt smell, and brought his head close to the pill furnace. The burnt smell became stronger, causing Lin Yiyuan's expression to become uncertain, he stood up and went to the side of the furnace to open the furnace to take a look, his face instantly turning black.

Unexpectedly, the liquid within the furnace was not refined into green spirit liquid, but instead turned into a pile of black ashes. The moment the lid was lifted, dust floated out, and it was extremely suffocating.

How did this happen?

Lin Yiyuan looked at the pill furnace in shock and bewilderment. He grabbed a handful of the powder and fell into a daze.

Lin Yiyuan was sure that the two refining methods were the same, the only difference was the flame. The last time was when he used Li Huo, but this time, in order to save time in his training, he lazily used charcoal to make the pill.

Charcoal was relatively resistant to burning, and Lin Yiyuan had added a large amount of charcoal in one go. He was not worried that the charcoal would burn the medicinal liquid, because compared to Li Huo, the temperature of the charcoal was much lower.

However, what was strange was that the charcoal flame had coincidentally smeared the medicinal liquid. This was greatly out of Lin Yiyuan's expectations and also made him puzzled after thinking about it for a long time.

After carefully thinking about it, Lin Yiyuan suddenly narrowed his eyes and raised the Deflection of Fire in his palm. A clump of
