After the meal, Jiang An rested for a while. When the food was almost digested, she stood up, stretched her muscles and bones, and then began to practice the "Five Animal Frolics" that she already knew by heart.
She moved with agility and fluidity, like a graceful crane dancing or a powerful tiger descending a mountain.
After practicing this several times, Jiang An felt that his blood and energy had been mobilized, and he felt refreshed.
Without further ado, Jiang An went straight to the alchemy room to begin refining the Qi-boosting pill.
She skillfully lit the furnace fire, placed various rare medicinal herbs into the alchemy furnace in a certain proportion, and then focused intently on controlling the heat and the fusion of medicinal power.
As time passed, the temperature inside the alchemy furnace rose higher and higher, emitting a rich medicinal aroma.
Jiang An dared not be careless in the slightest, constantly monitoring the changes in the alchemy furnace and continuously adjusting the heat.
Finally, after a long wait, a slight sound came from the alchemy furnace.
One batch of pills after another was thus refined.
"Phew~ The last batch is finally finished!" When Jiang An carefully opened the alchemy furnace and saw the seven smooth, round Qi-boosting pills lying quietly inside, emitting a faint spiritual light, he couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment.
She let out a long sigh of relief, a smile of satisfaction spreading across her face.
Jiang An quickly put the Qi-boosting pills into a pre-prepared medicine bottle and put them away. Then he stretched out a big yawn to relieve the fatigue brought on by the long hours of pill refining.
Immediately afterwards, she dragged her somewhat heavy steps out of the alchemy room and into the spacious and bright living room.
He plopped down on the soft, comfortable sofa, picked up the remote control on the table, and turned on the screen.
However, the screen was completely silent at this moment, with no message notifications or updates.
That makes sense. Everyone just experienced a terrible insect infestation during the day, and they must all be exhausted. They should all be sound asleep right now, recovering their lost energy and strength.
Jiang An shook her head helplessly. Although she felt extremely tired, she knew it wasn't time to rest.
Upon reaching this point, she looked up at the clock on the wall; the hour hand was pointing exactly to two in the morning.
This is a time when most people are sound asleep, but Jiang An knows he still has a lot to do.
So, she mustered her strength, picked up a glass of iron-flecked milk beside her, and took a small sip. This nutritious milk could help her quickly replenish her depleted energy.
I sat quietly on the sofa, slowly savoring the sweet and delicious Tiewen milk, allowing my strength to gradually recover.
Just then, a small figure popped out from some corner.
It turned out to be a little turtle.
With slow but firm steps, it slowly crawled from the ground onto the sofa, and finally climbed onto Jiang An's lap.
"Coo coo~" the little turtle murmured softly, as if it were begging its owner for a hug.
Seeing this, Jiang An smiled slightly, gently stroking the little turtle's hard shell, feeling the warmth and affection it conveyed.
Then, she skillfully took out a large glass of iron-patterned milk that emitted a rich aroma from her storage ring.
This glass of iron-patterned milk has a unique silvery sheen, like ripples on a lake under moonlight.
Jiang An handed it to the little turtle and said softly, "Little turtle, drink some milk to replenish your energy. We're about to face a fierce battle!"
After saying that, a look of determination and resolve flashed in her eyes.
Indeed, Jiang An had already made up his mind to complete today's task—the arena match—in one fell swoop.
At this moment, there are only two days left before the extreme heat disaster is completely over.
In these precious final moments, no one can predict what unexpected changes might occur.
Jiang An only wanted to make the most of every minute and second, and never leave himself even the slightest potential danger.
Because she knew very well that once dawn broke, facing the overwhelming swarms of flying insects or other dangers, she was unsure whether she would have enough time and energy to successfully complete today's arena battle.
After all, that arena, full of challenges and unknowns, would require her to consume a lot of energy and physical strength.
Time slipped away silently, each second precious.
Gradually, Jiang An's body, which had been slightly tired, recovered to its best condition.
She suddenly stood up, her eyes fixed intently on the equally energetic little turtle beside her, and asked loudly, "Little turtle, are you ready? We're about to get started!"
Upon hearing its owner's call, the little turtle excitedly emitted a series of clear and melodious cries: "Coo~coo~". At the same time, it raised its head high and waved its tiny claws incessantly, looking spirited and eager to charge into battle.
