Chapter 172 Grand Gathering of Spiritual Beings
"If that's the case, then the pills produced will also be contaminated?" Gu Qing said, somewhat uncertainly, since the refining process involves removing impurities.
"This is how it is for lower-level alchemists, since they don't remove the impurities as thoroughly as they could. But higher-level alchemists, who also have less contamination from these exotic plants, can remove them more cleanly."
Gu Qing really didn't know that what she thought were impurities were just some fibrous impurities contained in the plant itself.
I've learned something new.
"That would require a higher and more refined level of mental strength."
"That's right. The requirements for alchemists to have precise control over their mental energy are extremely high. The higher the grade of the medicinal material, the higher the requirements for mental energy control."
"Oh, by the way, what is your spiritual form?" Sun Mo looked at her with some confusion.
Gu Qing didn't reply, but simply waved her hand. A small cloud appeared beside her, flickered, and transformed into a fiery sunset cloud.
First, he yawned, then rubbed against Gu Qing in a soft, whimpering voice.
"It's conscious now, that's so cute." Huanhuan wanted to pet it, but quickly withdrew her hand, knowing it would be impolite.
"Yes, it's already conscious." Gu Qing stretched out her hand and presented Xiao Yunduo to them.
Each of them reached out and touched it, exclaiming, "So cotton, so comfortable!" Sun Mo was completely charmed by how cute it was.
"When did your spiritual bodies awaken their consciousness?" Gu Qing wanted to know more.
“Mine is a fire crow, and it was conscious from birth.” Yang Huanhuan waved her hand, and a fire crow surrounded by flames flew out.
It flew around the roof once, landed on the edge of the roof, first tilted its head to look at the people inside the house, and then began to preen its feathers.
"Mine is a flame, a consciousness that awakened when I entered Rank A." Sun Mo waved her hand, and as soon as her flame appeared, the temperature in the room rose sharply.
This is the difference in rank, a subtle pressure that even made Xiaoyunduo feel uncomfortable.
It flew up to the flame, spat out a spark, and started whimpering and arguing with it.
They must be arguing, since neither of them seems very rational. The little flame has two beady eyes, and the flame-formed hand is also in a hands-on-hips pose.
One moment they were whimpering, the next they were arguing noisily. That is, until Icarus's spiritual form appeared.
It was a little red rabbit with long, drooping ears. As soon as it came out, it sensed the atmosphere and hid under the furnace.
"Don't let its current appearance fool you; it's only unfamiliar with the little cloud. Once it gets used to it, it'll be wilder than anyone else," Ikar waved his hand dismissively.
"Yes, yes, this little rabbit is quite fierce. My little fire crow almost got hurt by it last time."
As soon as Yang Huanhuan finished speaking, she saw the little fire crow swoop down, and then the two spiritual entities started fighting.
Gu Qing was too preoccupied to watch the two guys who only talked and didn't fight argue.
"Quickly, take them back! Don't keep fighting. What if they get hurt?"
"Oh, don't worry, they were born with intelligence, and their intelligence is already quite high. They won't fight to the death." Neither of the main entities cared, and Gu Qing just watched from the side.
Clearly, the two little guys were well-behaved, not using their energy, or even their teeth and beaks—these are their most powerful attack parts—but only using their mental bodies for protection.
You knock me down, and then when I get up, I'll knock you down again.
Was Gu Qing watching the commotion? Little Cloud flew back, whimpering. It had obviously lost the argument and was whimpering as it landed on Gu Qing's face.
Gu Qing peeled it off her face, kissing and coaxing it. The little flame over there tilted its head back, showing off its merits to Sun Mo.
Sun Mo smiled and said something mischievous, then turned to look at Xiao Yunduo.
Gu Qing shook her head at her, and the two of them tacitly went to talk about other things. The two spirits were bored there, and slowly they came together again.
After the fire rabbit and fire crow over there finally collapsed from exhaustion, the two on this side started playing together, with the little cloud carrying the little flame flying in the air.
The little flame taught the little cloud how to breathe fire in various shapes, sometimes heart-shaped, sometimes round, showing its skill in controlling its energy.
Sun Mo clapped his hands. "Alright, everyone go back to your places and don't waste any more time. Let's see how Little Cloud refines medicine."
Little Cloud straightened up and whimpered twice. The other spiritual entities returned to their main bodies, and Gu Qing rubbed Little Cloud again.
Arriving at the alchemy furnace, Little Cloud flew to one side of the furnace and began to breathe fire. As soon as the flames appeared, the other three couldn't help but cover their mouths with their hands.
They were afraid the noise would cause trouble, but they could definitely feel the heat of the flames.
Ikar and Yang Huanhuan exchanged a glance, meaning that no wonder he was able to marry the regimental commander; his abilities could not be judged by rank.
