Chapter 82 True Fire Displays its Power, Beasts Fear the Flame, Pill Destroyed, Furnace Shattered, P
Han Yi slowly approached the beast fire with his spiritual energy. The pale blue flames seemed to be alive, constantly flickering and radiating powerful energy. The moment his spiritual energy touched the beast fire, Han Yi felt a tremendous repulsive force, almost causing his spiritual energy to dissipate. He gritted his teeth, increased the output of his spiritual energy, and tried to forcibly suppress the beast fire.
However, the beast fire resisted fiercely. It continuously released scorching flames, stubbornly resisting Han Yi's spiritual power. Han Yi did not give up. While maintaining the output of spiritual power, he constantly adjusted his output method, trying to find a way to coexist harmoniously with the beast fire. He frowned slightly, his expression focused, silently pondering a countermeasure. He began to circulate the Law of Life, attempting to communicate and negotiate with this flame that possessed a certain degree of intelligence.
Just as Han Yi was struggling to communicate with the beast fire, the small, intelligent flame suddenly became intensely active in his sea of consciousness. A dazzling light emanated from the flame, instantly illuminating Han Yi's mind. Then, like a nimble sprite, the flame burst forth from Han Yi's sea of consciousness and appeared before him. In that instant, the flame emitted a powerful and pure aura, an aura that seemed to possess the absolute suppressive force of the most powerful flame in the world over any other flame.
The moment the beast fire appeared as a tiny flame, it seemed to have encountered something extremely terrifying. Its previously ferocious aura vanished instantly, replaced by trembling fear. Han Yi, looking at the beast fire in his hand, was like a mouse before a cat, completely devoid of its previous arrogance. Han Yi's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
Han Yi keenly sensed the change in the beast fire, and a surge of joy welled up within him. He immediately seized the opportunity, a gentle smile appearing on his face, and began to communicate with the beast fire in an even more soothing manner. He wanted to establish a connection with the beast fire through spiritual energy, letting it know that he meant no harm. Like comforting a frightened child, the beast fire was no longer as agitated as before, and actually took the initiative to control its terrifying temperature, showing goodwill towards Han Yi. Han Yi was overjoyed, "It's done!"
However, just as Han Yi was about to subdue the beast fire, the small flame silently appeared beside it and swallowed it whole. Han Yi's eyes widened again, staring at the small flame in astonishment. He was speechless with disbelief. He opened his mouth slightly, but ultimately uttered no word. Han Yi's emotions were as thrilling as riding a rollercoaster. He shook his head helplessly.
After absorbing the beast fire, the small flame seemed to have undergone some changes. Its light became more dazzling, and its aura became more mysterious and unpredictable. Han Yi stared at the mysterious little flame, his heart filled with mixed feelings of joy and worry.
After a long while, he composed himself and resolutely decided to begin refining pills. He took out the pill furnace and more than thirty kinds of medicinal herbs for refining pills from his storage bag, and placed them in front of him in an orderly manner. Then, with a gentle wave, a surge of spiritual energy flowed out, and the lid of the pill furnace opened directly. The thirty kinds of medicinal herbs swirled around the top of the furnace, waiting to be refined.
Then, he made a hand seal, controlling the spiritual energy to transform into spiritual fire, and began to temper the alchemy furnace. The flames burned fiercely, emitting a soft whooshing sound, and the temperature of the alchemy furnace instantly rose steadily.
He took a deep breath, his gaze focused and resolute. Simultaneously, he controlled all the herbs, placing them into the alchemy furnace. Within moments of entering the furnace, the herbs began to melt, and after several dozen breaths, they were completely liquefied. He stared intently at the furnace, constantly adjusting the size and temperature of the flames to ensure all the herbs were heated evenly and complemented each other. Soon, a fragrance blending various herbs filled the air, permeating the entire cave and invigorating the senses.
At this moment, his alchemy skills and control over the flames were vastly different from when he first started. He was no longer as apprehensive as he had been during his initial alchemy practice; instead, he was completely composed. His eyes never left the alchemy furnace, and his hands moved constantly, adjusting the state of the flames and herbs.
In less than a fifth of the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, all the herbs in the alchemy furnace had fused together, forming a viscous liquid, entering the stage of condensing and solidifying the elixir. Han Yi focused even more intently on controlling the flames, allowing the liquid to slowly rotate within the furnace, continuously refining its essence, striving for perfection. The liquid's color also constantly changed, gradually shifting from its initial green to golden yellow. He stared intently at the alchemy furnace, his heart filled with anticipation.
However, as expected, the flames soon failed to reach the desired temperature. Just then, Han Yi summoned the small flame within his consciousness. At his command, the flame rushed into the furnace. The moment it entered, the temperature skyrocketed. The intense heat made Han Yi's heart race. He watched the furnace intently, his heart filled with both anticipation and worry.
However, no matter how much he planned, he never expected that things would develop in a way that exceeded his expectations.
Because the flame was too hot and Han Yi failed to control it, the pill that was about to take shape was burned to ashes in an instant. Not only was the pill reduced to ashes, but the furnace itself exploded instantly due to the terrifying temperature of the flame. The deafening explosion followed, and Han Yi was seen being blasted away, landing face-first against the cave wall, leaving a huge crater in the hole.
The three hawks not far away were also knocked to the ground by the immense energy of the explosion. Although they were some distance from the epicenter, they were nearly killed by the scorching flames. Fortunately, Wang Weiwei summoned a life-saving magic item at the critical moment, blocking most of the expanding energy and saving their lives. However, the heat wave generated by the remaining energy still knocked down all the experts at the cave entrance except for Po Yue, and they all suffered burns of varying degrees.
"So powerful?" Han Yi, who had smashed a large hole in the cave wall, lay on the ground, his body aching all over. His eyes were wide with disbelief as he looked at the little flame that was now protecting him, and he couldn't help but complain.
He survived the terrifying heat of the explosion only because the small flame, sensing his danger, diverted some of its energy to form a protective barrier, completely isolating him from the intense heat. Otherwise, he would be nothing but ashes now.
"Little thing, thank you for sparing my life!" Han Yi slowly sat up, sincerely thanking the still lively little flame. His face was full of helplessness, but his eyes also held a hint of relief.
Wang Weiwei quickly approached him. Seeing Han Yi's disheveled appearance, she was slightly taken aback at first, then couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle. Her eyes curved into crescent moons, her smile full of playfulness. Han Yi's face was covered in grime, his hair disheveled; his former handsomeness was long gone.
Han Yi helplessly touched his face, slowly shook his head, and revealed a bitter smile.
"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, young lady." Han Yi's tone was slightly embarrassed.
Wang Weiwei gently shook her head, her beautiful eyes sparkling like dazzling stars. She slightly raised her hand, pointed to the clear spring not far away, and spoke softly.
"It's good that you're alright, young master. There's a spring over there, young master, please go and wash up quickly."
