Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 145: Refining the Youth-Preserving Pill

A few days later, Xu Mu and Mo Wuxin flew together on a flying artifact and arrived at the island where the Su Xin Palace was located.

Mo Wuxin gave Xu Mu the medicinal materials he had purchased and arranged the best alchemy room for him in the Su Xin Palace.

"Within half a year, you must refine all the pills. I will come to collect the first batch in ten days!" Mo Wuxin commanded before leaving.

"Senior brother, rest assured!" Xu Mu naturally patted his chest and assured him.

His skill in refining the Youth-Preserving Pill had long reached the level of a grandmaster, and now that his cultivation had reached the late stage of Foundation Building, it was even easier to refine.

Originally, it would take three or four days to refine a furnace, but now one day was enough.

Due to Xu Mu's hidden cultivation, Mo Wuxin did not know that he had already reached the perfect stage of Foundation Building. He thought Xu Mu was still in the middle stage of Foundation Building, so he set a relaxed deadline.

Although Mo Wuxin was a monstrous talent in the Foundation Building stage, Xu Mu was not inferior. If he wanted to hide his cultivation, it would be difficult for Mo Wuxin to see through it.

However, it was probably impossible to hide it from Nangong Suyi.

So Xu Mu had no intention of meeting her. After refining the pills, he would leave.

As for using the Yin-Yang Unity Secret Technique to help Mo Wuxin break through, it was not urgent.

He wanted to first understand what Mo Wuxin was thinking.

In case the other party was fixated on his gender and rashly brought it up, it might backfire.

The reason he had this idea was twofold. First, he thought the other party was not bad. After knowing each other for so many years, he knew that Mo Wuxin was not the kind of person who would betray him. As long as he helped Mo Wuxin, the other party would definitely repay him.

Second, he felt that he could gain new achievements from the other party.

For example, making things more difficult, being caught in a dilemma...

And during the dual cultivation process, he would also benefit a lot himself. It was very likely that he would directly break through to the Gold Core stage.

Third, he temporarily didn't want to lose his identity as a disciple of the Su Xin Palace.

Besides the basic privileges, this identity had many other benefits.

If Nangong Suyi died and Mo Wuxin couldn't advance to the Gold Core stage to inherit the Su Xin Palace, then he could only change his allegiance.

Others might not be as easy to talk to as Nangong Suyi.

Due to the impending deadline, Nangong Suyi basically ignored him.

She wouldn't take advantage of him or try to control him to extract benefits from him.

To put it simply, being a named disciple of the Su Xin Palace was still quite comfortable for him, so if he could avoid changing it, he would try his best not to.

The last and most important point was...

To prevent this old man from having any thoughts about his Su Lu'an!

If you have thoughts about the woman I like, then I might as well turn you into my woman!

Ahem!

It seems a bit perverted!

Anyway, the reasons are quite sufficient.

But with his cautious personality, without a ninety percent certainty, he wouldn't act rashly.

After Mo Wuxin left, Xu Mu turned around and looked at the alchemy room in front of him.

This alchemy room was completely independent, made of special spiritual materials, with an area of over fifty square meters. It was located in the back mountain of the Su Xin Palace, surrounded by dense forests, and filled with rich spiritual energy in the air. Not far away, one could see the light curtain formed after the formation was activated.

Pushing open the heavy stone door and entering the room, the first thing that caught Xu Mu's eye was a huge pill furnace. The furnace was made of Chi Yang refined iron and was covered with various runes and spells, emitting a mysterious aura.

"A seventh-grade pill furnace! It seems that I really underestimated the foundation of the Su Xin Palace! It's worthy of being a force with a late-stage Gold Core cultivator!"

As an alchemist, Xu Mu couldn't help but be dazzled when he saw such a good pill furnace.

Next to the pill furnace was an underground fire, with flames burning and flickering with a red light, illuminating the entire room. Under the fire were a row of stone stools for alchemists to sit and refine pills. The stone stools were covered with thick purple cushions, making people feel comfortable and warm when sitting on them.

The walls of the room were filled with various herbs and alchemy materials. Some were ordinary plants that seemed to be used for decoration, while others were rare spirit herbs, ranging from fourth to fifth grade. Each plant was a treasure to alchemists. In one corner of the room, there was a small medicine pouch filled with pills of various colors, emitting a faint fragrance that could refresh the mind.

In the center of the room was a large stone platform, on which various alchemy tools were placed, such as a mortar, alchemy bottles, drying racks, and so on. These tools were all made of top-quality materials and were treasures to alchemists.

Unfortunately, most of these things were not needed by Xu Mu.

Because he usually uses semi-finished products directly for alchemy, there is no need for drying and precipitating the medicinal properties, nor is there a need for preliminary processing.

In addition, the concentration of spiritual energy in the room far exceeds that of the outside world.

Xu Mu took a breath and felt the spiritual power in his body stirring.

To be able to experience this situation at his level, it can be seen that the concentration of spiritual energy in this room is extraordinary.

"This room should directly connect to the medium-sized spiritual vein of the Su Xin Palace, so it is impossible to have such a rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth!"

Just this medium-sized spiritual vein is a priceless treasure. Without Nan Gong Su Yi guarding it, the Su Xin Palace would not be able to sustain itself.

Xu Mu suspected that there were probably many people in the Four Seas Immortal Palace eyeing this piece of fat.

As long as Nan Gong Su Yi dies, there will inevitably be a fierce battle.

"Unfortunately, I didn't bring a tool corpse. Otherwise, my cultivation here would definitely progress rapidly!"

Tool corpses are something that is not easily seen. To avoid being discovered, he left them at home and sealed them layer by layer.

After checking the room and confirming that there were no problems, Xu Mu prepared to refine the elixir.

He first opened his palm and gently blew a breath, countless flames flew out and ignited all the oil lamps, illuminating the entire stone chamber.

Then he picked up a black stone and threw it into the fire pit next to him.

The originally blazing fire burst out like it was stimulated.

Xu Mu formed a hand seal and quickly activated the fire array in the room to control the surging flames and adjust them to the temperature he needed.

The temperature that can be controlled varies depending on the alchemist's cultivation, realm, and technique.

With Xu Mu's cultivation and realm in the Fire Control Technique, the temperature of ordinary fire cannot meet his requirements, so he threw a Fire Crystal into it to draw out the internal fire.

In this way, the speed of his pill refinement will be greatly accelerated.

After adjusting the temperature, Xu Mu moved the pill furnace over and began to put the medicinal materials into it.

At first, Xu Mu didn't expect the other party to have a seventh-grade pill furnace, so he planned to refine them one by one. But now that there is a seventh-grade pill furnace, he will find a way.

The medicinal power that a seventh-grade pill furnace can withstand far exceeds the fourth-grade pill furnace in his hand, so refining hundreds of pills at once is not a problem.

With his cultivation and alchemy technique, he can completely control it without worrying about failure.

However, in order to avoid refining non-premium elixirs, while the pill furnace was preheating, Xu Mu raised the refining technique of the Rejuvenation Pill to an extraordinary level.

In this way, there will be no mistakes.

After making sure that everything was ready, he took out some precious herbs and put them into the furnace, gently stirring them. The herbs gradually became soft and emitted a faint fragrance.

Because the weight of the characters is relatively large, the technique has changed a bit, and he must do it himself.

When the fragrance became extremely strong, Xu Mu took out a jade bottle and poured the spiritual liquid into the furnace. The herbs gradually became moist and emitted a stronger fragrance.

Then various precious spirit crystals were put into the furnace, and the crystals gradually became hot, emitting a pungent smell.

The materials needed for refining elixirs are not all herbs, but also include thirty percent of various spiritual objects, animal bones, or minerals, and so on.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Xu Mu formed the Spirit Gathering Seal and controlled the furnace array, gently stirring.

The medicinal herbs, spiritual liquid, and spirit crystals in the furnace gradually integrated, emitting a mysterious aura. He took out a pearl from a hundred-year river clam and put it into the furnace. The pearl gradually became transparent, emitting a colorful light.

Time passed bit by bit, with medicinal herbs and spiritual objects continuously being put into the furnace. After a full seven days, everything gradually integrated, emitting a mysterious aura.

With the casting of the Core Condensation Seal, all the liquid gradually condensed into pills the size of longan fruits.

"I didn't expect to succeed in the first batch production. Not bad!"

He took out jade bottles one by one and stored the pills emitting a radiant light.

Looking at his work, Xu Mu showed a satisfied smile.

"Mo Wu Xin probably never dreamed that the elixir that originally took half a year to refine, I finished in just a few days."

Although the elixirs were refined, Xu Mu was not foolish enough to hand them over all at once.

Instead, he decided to drag it out for half a year according to the other party's pace.

Xu Mu took out the essence of the Split Earth Whale extracted from the secret realm and prepared to refine its bloodline, taking this opportunity to integrate it.

"The Split Earth Whale is known as the number one fierce beast in the deep sea. I wonder what Divine Ability it can bestow upon me?"
