Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

“Hoo hoo…”.

Lin Feng was adjusting his breathing. As a confident man, what did it matter if the Fire Kirin wasn’t by his side? It wasn’t his first time refining an elixir.

Yellow Rank Elixirs and Dark Stage Elixirs, though they differ in grade, are both elixirs.

Lin Feng comforted himself with this thought.

Moreover, Lin Feng felt that his soul level had fully reached that of a “Dark Stage Alchemist.”

Therefore, he had ample reason to believe that he could certainly succeed in refining it.

“Swoosh.”

Lin Feng flicked his finger, and the Purple Flame Earth Core Fire leapt out, curling around his fingertip, dancing joyfully.

Lin Feng flicked the Purple Flame Earth Core Fire into the Medicine Tripod.

One after another, the Spiritual Medicine was thrown by Lin Feng into the tripod, beginning their refinement and purification.

Refining was a very meticulous task. Aside from Heavenly Fire and powerful soul perception, control over the Spiritual Medicine, and other factors, an Alchemist must also possess a very important quality.

That was temperament.

Some people, even with great talents, could be coarse and sloppy—careless about consequences. Such people, despite possessing the most extraordinary talent for refining, would find it difficult to become a formidable Alchemist.

Carefulness.

This was a quality Alchemists needed to emphasize.

In addition to carefulness, Alchemists must also have other traits, such as patience and strong determination.

This is why becoming an Alchemist was such a difficult achievement. To start with, those naturally endowed with talent are already as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Among these talented individuals, only those with outstanding qualities would be selected, further narrowing down the pool.

Thus, this was one of the main reasons why Alchemists were so scarce.

However, Lin Feng was always a meticulous person.

Especially when he focused on certain tasks, such as refining or crafting Spirit Arrays, he would immerse himself completely, striving to reach his utmost limits.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Buzz.

A startling fluctuation emanated from the room.

“Creak.”

The door opened, and a weary Lin Feng walked out.

During these three days, Ziyuan had been extremely anxious, worried that some mishap might occur while Lin Feng was refining. Seeing Lin Feng emerge finally put her at ease.

“Master, you must be tired and hungry; I will have someone prepare the meal right away,” Ziyuan said, her voice laced with concern as she looked at Lin Feng’s weary face.

Lin Feng smiled and said, “There’s no rush, Ziyuan. Go inside and take this pill. Refine it.”

Saying so, Lin Feng handed Ziyuan a porcelain bottle containing an Ancient Blood Demon Pill.

“Is this pill refined for me?” Ziyuan asked, a look of surprise on her face.

Lin Feng smiled and said, “Go take it now. It’s just been refined; the medicine power is at its best. I hope it’s useful to you. Even if it doesn’t turn you into a Cultivation Genius, it should greatly enhance your cultivation speed.”

Ziyuan’s hands trembled slightly as she grasped the small bottle.

She had always longed to possess great cultivation talent but never had it, which made her anxious and even resentful for always holding her master back.

So her master knew her thoughts and had always kept them in mind; tears suddenly moistened the corners of Ziyuan’s eyes.

Lin Feng tousled Ziyuan’s hair and said, “Stay strong! I believe Ziyuan will one day become a formidable Cultivator!”

“Of course, Ziyuan will do it.” Ziyuan nodded heavily and then, as if holding a “Holy Artifact,” she entered the inner room with a porcelain bottle containing the Ancient Blood Demon Pill.

Lin Feng murmured, “I hope that Ziyuan’s Demon Snake Bloodline can become stronger. If the Demon Snake Bloodline is too weak, the Ancient Blood Demon Pill will not have any effect. By then, Ziyuan will surely be devastated.”

Lin Feng suppressed the worries in his heart and sat on the steps outside, leaning against the door frame to rest his eyes. Three continuous days of refining elixirs had indeed left him feeling deeply exhausted.

“Ziyuan must become stronger. Ziyuan will no longer be a burden to her master.”

Biting her lip, Ziyuan opened the porcelain bottle and poured out a blood-colored elixir, which she then swallowed.

“Boom….”

The medicine power of the Ancient Blood Demon Pill began to have an astonishing effect immediately.

Waves of heat-like power spread throughout Ziyuan’s body.

Pain!

Ziyuan experienced a kind of agony she had never felt before!

It was as if her soul were being scorched by the fires of hell—a pain that penetrated deep into the soul.

Despite the unbearable pain, Ziyuan bit her lip, striving not to make a sound.

She was afraid her master would worry about her…

Ziyuan’s lips were bitten till they bled, and the taste of rich blood filled her mouth.

Her nails dug into her flesh, and her body curled up on the bed, convulsing intensely.

The medicine power of the Ancient Blood Demon Pill was too domineering—more than even Lin Feng had anticipated.

Ziyuan felt her consciousness blur bit by bit.

“Am I going to die? I don’t want to die. I really don’t want to die. I don’t want to leave my master.”

Ziyuan was not willing to give up; she wanted to survive.

But it felt like her body was about to be ignited. Streams of Elixir Fire burst forth from her body, threatening to burn her to ashes.

Under other circumstances, this might have been a release.

But now, Ziyuan truly wanted to live. She loved the feeling of her master caring for her, and she loved snuggling close to him.

However, Ziyuan’s consciousness kept blurring, more and more.

Finally, Ziyuan passed out. The Elixir Fire contained in the Ancient Blood Demon Pill was terrifying, threatening to completely consume her. Just then, her eyes turned to a jade-green hue, and the blood in Ziyuan’s body rapidly transformed—her originally dark-red blood was now turning golden.

“Boom….” At the same time, over Beihuang City’s skies, endless Lei Yun swept across Heaven and Earth.

This sudden, bizarre change alarmed countless people. Many people rushed out, looking towards the sky with shock and horror, wondering what was about to happen.

“Look, what is that?”

Someone pointed at the sky in terror.

Everyone looked and saw a giant Golden Snake emerge amidst the Lei Yun, its single scale seemingly larger than all of Beihuang City. A feeling of ancientness and vicissitude radiated from the Golden Snake’s body, and sensing its presence, countless people knelt on the ground, worshipping the Golden Snake as if it were a Divine Spirit.

“Holy Emperor’s apparition…” Some cultivators of Great Ability looked towards the Golden Snake appearing among the clouds Above Nine Heavens, their faces filled with disbelief. Why would the apparition of a Holy Emperor appear over Beihuang City?

“Bloodline Awakening.”

…

In a separate courtyard, a beautiful woman stepped out from a room. Seeing the huge golden snake above the sky, her enchanting eyes were filled with utter shock.

Swoosh.

The next moment, the beautiful woman disappeared without a trace.
