It’s no wonder that Bai Sitang was surprised. He had been learning alchemy for a long time, but he had never seen Jiang Deng make alchemy like this.
According to the ratio on the recipe of Yiguidan, one only needs one three-headed ghost mushroom to refine a batch of pills. However, Jiang Deng put three three-headed ghost mushrooms into a batch of pills!
Is this because he thinks his alchemy skills are failing too slowly?
Due to Jiang Deng's powerful strength, Bai Sitang didn't dare to say anything, but he was gloating in his heart.
With his level of Earth-level alchemy, even if he strictly followed the instructions on the recipe, he could not guarantee that he would be able to succeed on the first batch.
Just wait and see, it would be strange if Jiang Deng could succeed!
Under Bai Sitang's watchful gaze, Jiang Deng had already mixed together the essences of more than ten kinds of spiritual herbs, including the three-headed ghost ganoderma.
Gurgle——
The liquid made from the essence of spiritual herbs quickly boiled under the burning of the Qingluan True Flame.
After boiling, the moisture in the essence of the spiritual herb begins to evaporate, and the remaining part gradually solidifies and takes shape, entering the final step of forming a pill.
This is the most difficult step and also the one that is most likely to cause trouble.
If other alchemists were to do this, they would definitely be extremely careful at this step, for fear that they would refine too quickly and cause the furnace to explode.
As for Jiang Deng, she probably felt that she had wasted too much time on refining the elixir, so she simply increased the firepower to help her condense the elixir faster.
Chichichichi——
Inside the big black cauldron, the remaining liquid was boiling violently, and it looked like it would dry up if the fire continued at this high level.
Seeing this, Bai Sitang's smile grew even brighter.
Just watch, Jiang Deng is about to explode!
After a dozen breaths.
Not only did the furnace of Jiang Deng's pill refinement not explode, but even the last step of pill condensation was almost completed.
Bai Sitang: “…”
Why hasn't the furnace exploded yet?
If it doesn’t explode soon, the ginger lantern will be finished!
It seemed as if he heard Bai Sitang's thoughts. After a sound of the pill ringing, Jiang Deng really completed the pill condensation!
Jiang Deng was not like other alchemists who divided the pills into seven to ten equal parts according to the recipe. Instead, she simply rolled them into three big balls.
The three spheres lying in the big black cauldron were completely solidified, and their surfaces exuded rich purple spiritual energy, without even a single wasted pill.
The elixir is ready!
In an instant, the ghost energy in the surrounding ghost bamboo forest gathered towards the big black cauldron.
Finally, the rich ghost energy poured into the three pills respectively, and the three pills accepted it all and absorbed all the ghost energy.
A dazzling purple light burst out from the alchemy furnace!
After the purple light faded, a slightly burnt aroma of elixir spread...
"W-What the hell!"
Seeing this, Bai Sitang was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out.
It really worked!
It turned out that Jiang Deng, a novice, was able to refine the Yigui Pill!
"Why are you still standing there?"
Jiang Deng put away the extra Yigui Pill, then threw a fist-sized pill to Bai Sitang and urged him, "Eat it quickly. After you transform, we'll go into the city."
Bai Sitang held the heavy pill in his hands and said dumbfoundedly, "Jiang Deng...are you sure the pill you made is really edible?"
"Nonsense! Why can't I eat this?"
Jiang Deng curled his lips, took out the remaining pill from the big black cauldron, and started to chew it.
After swallowing the first bite, Jiang Deng's face looked a little abnormal.
Unexpectedly, her alchemy skills are much worse than her cooking skills...
"Just bear with it, it's like a meal."
While Jiang Deng was responding to Bai Sitang, he finished chewing the Yiguidan he had made with a distorted look on his face.
Seeing that Jiang Deng was determined to do it, Bai Sitang didn't say anything and started to eat with Jiang Deng.
After the two of them finished chewing the large pill that was as big as a steamed bun, they immediately felt bursts of ghost energy erupting from their bodies. The ghost energy was restless in their bodies, and even affected the outside of their bodies.
At the same time, Jiang Deng and Bai Sitang's appearance also changed.
Bai Sitang's already fair face became even paler. His neck became as soft as noodles, and his head drooped involuntarily. His bright red tongue protruded from his mouth, a full three inches long, making him look like a hanged ghost.
And Jiang Deng is not much better than Bai Sitang.
Because she gave herself a special meal, she took more pills than Bai Sitang. Her face began to turn dark, so dark that her whole body was filled with a ghostly aura, like a black whirlwind.
Now, Jiang Deng didn't even need to disguise herself. Her face and figure were completely blocked by the ghostly aura. Even people who knew her would not be able to recognize her now.
The most amazing thing is that the aura of both of them has undergone earth-shaking changes, and they have become complete ghost cultivators.
"ah!"
Jiang Deng and Bai Sitang looked at each other and screamed in unison.
"How did you become like this!"
"You, you, you! Why are you so dark?"
After realizing how dumbfounded they were, they both fell silent.
Jiang Deng didn't expect that the consequence of him casually refining the Yigui Pill and taking the pill would be that they would turn into the Black and White Impermanence.
The recipe clearly stated that it would only change their aura into that of a ghost cultivator, so how come their appearance had changed too? It had even become so outrageous...
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that I would come? You still didn't believe me."
Bai Sitang really couldn't accept his own appearance and couldn't help but cry and complain.
"Shh—stop crying, there's movement!"
Jiang Deng shouted, then held his breath and listened attentively.
There was a rustling noise in the bamboo forest, as if someone had entered, not far from them.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Jiang Deng waved his hand and took the lead.
Bai Sitang also stopped crying and followed Jiang Deng into the depths of the bamboo forest.
Deep in the ghost bamboo forest.
As soon as the woman in red entered here, she was surrounded by ghost cultivators such as Mao Fang who arrived later.
“Hehehe…”
Looking at the woman in red in the encirclement, Mao Fang said with a smug smile, "Run! I want to see how far you can run."
The red-clothed woman looked Mao Fang up and down. After confirming his strength, she couldn't help but wonder, "Shouldn't you be the one running away? You're just a mere Mahayana ghost cultivator. What qualifications do you have to cause trouble for me?"
"My true self? Haha! So you really think you're the Venerable Jiang Deng?"
Mao Fang couldn't help but burst into laughter, almost crying. "I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. Oh no, there's another one. Coincidentally, her name is also Jiang Deng."
"……What's the meaning?"
The red-dressed woman couldn't help but glance sideways at Mao Fang, a hint of disbelief in her phoenix eyes, "Are you saying that... my true identity isn't actually Venerable Jiang Deng?"
