Battle Frenzy

Being able to display stability at any time did not necessarily mean that one would become the strongest alchemist, but all the famous and powerful alchemists in history all possessed this necessary quality.For a young person who had only learned pill refinery for a few months, this was very impressive!

Wang Zhong was not doing this just to prove himself. He was also borrowing this situation to stimulate himself and surpass his own standards before refining another batch of Perfect Pills. The feeling when he had refined Perfect Pills previously was just too good, and he wanted to experience it again. He might even be able to set down a complete foundation for his own Void Core very quickly. He would find opportunities to solve problems and improve himself more quickly!

Not only was he stable, but his actions had also become more and more natural, while his thoughts had become even clearer. He had already forgotten about the prying gazes behind him and completely immersed his consciousness into the pill furnace. He experienced the movement and the state of the pill spirits in the furnace, and controlled the balance between them. Any adjustments in the pill furnace were natural, and he followed his feelings. There were no signs of deliberate action.

Everyone behind him was an expert. At this moment, they could sense Wang Zhong’s relaxed and calm state when controlling the pill spirits. Even Elder Yimo nodded his head slightly. In the eyes of the Grand Master, perhaps Wang Zhong was still somewhat immature in his techniques or some other aspects, but the more natural his immature techniques were, the more adaptable he became!

Celeste was completely relaxed as she saw the process of Wang Zhong getting into the zone. As long as there were no serious mistakes at the end, she knew that he would be able to achieve a batch of 80%-pills. Then, she proceeded to look at Battier beside him.

Heh heh… Celeste had even started to laugh.

At this moment, the pill-studies expert that ranked among the top 10 in the Pill Refinery Hall felt somewhat like an outsider.

Ever since he had begun refining, his emotions had not calmed down. All the factors — including the two elemental spirits, the gazes from the bosses behind him, as well as Wang Zhong’s performance beside him — continued to affect him. As a result, his performance completely fell short of his standards!

Battier felt that this was unjust!

He definitely knew the various essentials after starting pill refining. He definitely knew that he had to calm down. He was continuously placing these demands on himself.

But when dealing with pill refinery, could you calm down whenever you wanted to?

Whenever his gaze floated towards the elemental spirits, he would feel a surge of emotion on the inside. Elemental spirits were an existence that any alchemist longed for even in their dreams, but Wang Zhong actually had two of them!

Battier started to greatly regret standing up and inciting this incident. However, he knew the importance of this batch of pills and forcibly encouraged himself at that moment as he contended against the various disturbances… Although he continuously made mistakes in the pill furnace, Battier was a genius alchemist with extremely rich experience. He used various techniques to save the fire everywhere. The batch of pills was very rocky through the refinery process, but shockingly, he managed to endure and not cause the furnace to explode.

He continuously wiped away his cold sweat, and his nerves were persistently tense. However, before he could reach the final stage, he heard a faint ringing sound from the pill furnace beside him!

Ding ding ding ding~~~

What was that?!

The pills were happily ramming against the inside walls of the pill furnace and followed a rather perfect melody, as if someone was striking a bell along to a joyous movement. It was like the clear sounds of nature that were pleasing to the ear.

Closely after, there was an extremely strong pill fragrance. It ignored the material obstacle that the walls of the pill furnace posed and simply passed through the pill furnace to waft into the air!

The surging collision force and the extraordinary fragrance… Could it be?!

Everyone present was a professional. Supervisor Lulu, Kakadinme, and the others had all widened their mouths… Even Celeste, who had witnessed this scene before, did not dare to believe her eyes at all! Of course, she could tell that Wang Zhong’s condition was excellent when refining this batch of pills, but these were Perfect Pills! Did he treat these pills like the controllable 90% ones that could be refined by will?

Everyone had a surprised expression on their face except for Elder Yimo. At that moment, there was even a smile on his face. Ever since the moment Wang Zhong started to form the pill, Elder Yimo could feel multiple things: his soul searching for life with extreme desire, his state as he explored fate, and the direction in which he guided his soul. Ever since that moment, he already knew that this would be a batch of Perfect Pills.

Was it true that the Perfect Pill was uncontrollable?

No, everyone with this kind of understanding was wrong.

The Perfect Pill was controllable. At the very least, any Perfect Pill below level-4 was controllable!

According to Elder Yimo’s understanding, pill refinery alone could be split into three realms.

The first realm consisted of skills. When the various basics and techniques involved in pill refinery reached their limit, one would be assured of at least 60%-pills.

The second was the feeling of accumulating one’s core. This included one’s control of the pill spirit, one’s feeling when forming the pill, and so on. This was one step above pill refinery skills and was most frequently brought up as “pill studies” by others. If one was able to control this, they would have the assurance of producing at least 80%-pills. They would also produce 90%-pills rather frequently.

Meanwhile, the Perfect Pill was the third realm. It included one’s awareness of the natural laws, of life, and of fate… This realm was rather vague and could only be understood, not passed down through words. Even if Elder Yimo himself understood, he could not clearly use language or his profound voice to pass down this knowledge to his pupils as one simply could not express this feeling!

Furthermore, every single pill had a unique life aura, natural aura, and fate judgment. In other words, if one’s soul and way of thinking corresponded with the values of certain pills, there would be high compatibility. As a result, one would be more skilled when refining this pill, and the probability of producing a Perfect Pill would be higher. Furthermore, if one could deeply acknowledge this point, and strengthen one’s will and control in this aspect during the process of refining, one could increase the probability of producing a perfect pill.

There was no doubt that the Glazed Crystal Life Extending Pill was compatible with fate. This pill that was able to bring people back to a safe zone from the line between life and death had a certain level of fate.

When Wang Zhong formed the pill, he used his soul to explore the Fate World. This direction was evidently very appropriate for the Glazed Crystal Life Extending Pill. The Perfect Pill he had submitted earlier was obviously the one he had refined. For a young person from a low-leveled civilization who had just engaged with pill studies for a few months, particularly a Foundational Stage who had not even accumulated his Void Core, to do this, even the highly experienced Elder Yimo could not help but feel sentimental. He had never seen such a young person.

The pill fragrance filled the surroundings, and the furnace fire was slowly extinguished…

Furthermore, the moment the pill furnace was opened, a graceful blue light scattered throughout the entire pill room. Three rays of blue shadows shot out from the pill furnace and into the sky. However, they were simply caught in a jade box by Wang Zhong, who was already prepared.

100% Perfect Pills!

Without checking the pills in the jade box, everyone already knew the grade of these three pills.

There was no doubt about this. Under normal circumstances, a batch of pills would have at least a dozen pills, and the quality of the pills would not affect the number of pills produced. However, it seemed as if the heavens envied only the Perfect Pills: only two or three pills would be produced, and some level-4 or level-5 pill refining would only produce one pill! This was a reason why the Perfect Pill had an extremely high selling price.

Wang Zhong closed his eyes. He was not excited or proud. He did not care about the Perfect Pills in the jade box or the countless shocked gazes behind him either. In reality, he was still reflecting on the feeling in the moment when the pills were formed.

Previously, when he produced the Perfect Pills, he had the feeling that he had completely mastered this pill. This was not necessarily a large improvement in his pill studies, but at least, Lao Wang felt that he had 70% to 80% assurance that he could produce a Perfect Pill when refining the Glazed Crystal Life Extending Pill. He was this confident!

Furthermore, at that moment, reality proved that his feelings had been completely accurate. The moment the pill was formed, he experienced the feeling of exploring life and fate once again. Needless to say, he had to thank Simba and the Fate Roulette. Without their past enlightenment and guidance, even if he had this inspiration, he would not have known what exact form the Fate World took, much less try to control it.

Boom!

Just as Lao Wang was still immersed in this perfect feeling, a massive rumbling sound broke the peace in the pill house. The house and the ground instantly shook, and a burned smell spread into the surroundings.

However, this shock only lasted for a moment. Elder Yimo waved his large hand, and all the air currents from the explosion, the burned smell, and even the sounds were instantly wrapped up. Then, they instantly vanished, only leaving behind an empty and opened pill furnace and a despairing Battier.

His furnace had exploded…

This Ghost had completely collapsed on the inside, but no one cared about him anymore.

The pill house was quiet, as if they were shocked at how Elder Yimo had casually suppressed the furnace that had exploded or were still immersed in the shock they felt when Wang Zhong refined the 100% Perfect Pill.

Everyone was quiet. Then, they heard Elder Yimo’s harmonious voice gradually rising in the quiet room. “Wang Zhong, are you willing to join the Pill Refinery Hall?”
