Watching the Fourth Elder leave with the precious bottle, Nian Wanzhou felt as if she were dreaming, it all seemed so unreal.
She even gave a frowning, utterly disgusted look: Yang Mi sweating and speechless.jpg.
Let's go back to the beginning, to when the Fourth Elder left.
Nian Wanzhou learned from Nan Yu how to select herbs, light the alchemical fire, filter the medicinal liquid, and control the fire. He learned the simplest and easiest alchemy techniques, which were specially prepared for someone like Nian Wanzhou who had no experience and was making alchemy for the first time.
But even with such simple basic techniques, Nian Wanzhou's hands create a sense of simple, unpretentious vitality.
It looks very comfortable.
Nan Yu watched Nian Wanzhou make his move quietly, a satisfied smile on her face.
He liked Nian Wanzhou very much. From the moment he met her, no matter the circumstances, she could always do something carefully, patiently, and gently whenever she wanted to.
Therefore, in Nan Yu's eyes, Nian Wanzhou is the most outstanding!
Nian Wanzhou's spiritual power was white, and the fire she conjured with it was also a very light color, but the intensity of the fire was no different from Nan Yu's at the beginning.
It's all about the right heat!
It was burning with a whooshing sound.
By the time Nian Wanzhou realized he had overdone it, it was too late. The alchemy furnace was already pitch black, and the pills inside... well, there were no pills to be found!
Those were all charred spiritual plants!
Unsurprisingly, the first attempt failed.
"Ah, Nan Yu, alchemy is so hard!" Nian Wanzhou sat down in frustration. She hadn't managed to regulate her spiritual energy properly and almost couldn't hold on. She was exhausted!
No wonder Nan Yu fainted from exhaustion last night.
"Hmm, but you're great, you've succeeded, and the refining is quite good. It's rare to see someone burn a pill to ashes," Nan Yu praised. "And to burn it into this shape, not bad, really not bad."
Nian Wanzhou: ...Are you praising me or insulting me??
"Let's try again, Wanwan. I feel fine, it's about the same as yesterday." Nanyu helped Nian Wanzhou up. "Wanwan, just keep trying! Nobody succeeds on their first try!"
"That makes sense, let's refine pills together!" Although there were setbacks, the experience was quite good, and Nian Wanzhou's spirits were lifted again. She picked up her tools again and began refining pills.
Let's follow the old steps.
Nan Yu also began refining pills, and the two worked quickly, their previous tacit understanding still evident.
However... this time, they all failed.
The reason is simple.
Both of them were too nervous, which caused them to lose their composure and their spiritual energy to become unstable, almost extinguishing the alchemical fire.
After dozens of failures, Nan Yu also failed more than ten times. The few times they succeeded, they only managed to refine one or two pills, and they were all low-grade...
Nian Wanzhou and Nanyu exchanged a bitter smile. What's going on? This is too difficult!
Both Nian Wanzhou and Nanyu were a little discouraged, but they hadn't given up yet.
In the end, Nan Yu got tired after several successful attempts and stopped to watch Nian Wanzhou's maneuvers.
It must be said that although Nian Wanzhou looks slow, her movements are elegant and skillful, and every step she takes is very rhythmic, just like playing a musical instrument, which is pleasing to the eye.
Moreover, her spiritual power was not weak; it was almost the same as Nan Yu's.
Although they cultivated together, Nian Wanzhou's spiritual power was white and abundant, carrying the power of life, which was particularly attractive to the demonic beast Nan Yu.
Moreover, her spiritual power was purer than that of ordinary people. When she was refining pills, it seemed to be wrapped in a thin, light golden film. Nan Yu curiously reached out and touched the spiritual power that was emanating from her. Then he looked at his own hand and wondered what was going on.
His spiritual power was also tinged with a light gold color.
"How amazing, it's so warm and cozy~"
But the next moment, he changed his mind.
"Boom!" A loud noise came from Nian Wanzhou's alchemy furnace, and it looked like it was about to explode!
Nan Yu was jolted back several steps and almost fell.
"Wanwan, get away from here! The alchemy furnace is going to explode!" Nan Yu quickly stood up. He looked at the deformed furnace and hurriedly reached out to pull Nian Wanzhou away.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
With a loud "bang," the alchemy furnace exploded.
Nan Yu was standing still, reaching out her hand, but she couldn't grab anyone; instead, she was separated by a white barrier.
Nan Yu shouted anxiously, but he couldn't see Nian Wanzhou's condition in the black fog, and the white barrier was blocking him from entering.
Only when the black fog dissipated did Nan Yu see Nian Wanzhou inside.
Inside the barrier, Nian Wanzhou and outside, Nan Yu looked at each other, both with a hint of surprise and panic on their faces.
Nian Wanzhou's lips twitched slightly, because she was so stunned by the shock that she seemed to have activated some kind of special skill just before the explosion, turning on something like a protective shield.
I put myself in the circle of explosions and did it subconsciously.
Fortunately, I'm tough and unharmed, and the southern fish didn't suffer any damage either.
"Wanwan! Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?" In Nan Yu's eyes, Nian Wanzhou was... dark and sparse, the hair ties on her two little pigtails were almost giving way, and the ends of her hair were a little burnt. She looked like a rag doll, and he felt extremely sorry for her.
"I'm fine, Nan Yu, are you hurt?" Nian Wanzhou asked.
Nan Yu shook her head: "I'm fine, you really scared me to death!"
As he spoke, he stepped forward to check on Nian Wanzhou's body, "How did you manage to trap yourself inside? What if... something happens to you? How can I help you?"
He suddenly hugged Nian Wanzhou tightly: "This is too dangerous!"
Nian Wanzhou patted his back and comforted him, "It's alright, it's alright, I'm fine."
The two turned to look at the alchemy furnace, where two dark lumps lay inside. They didn't know what they were, but they could smell a medicinal fragrance.
As the black mist dissipated, Nan Yu's skin also turned somewhat black from the smoke, and after rubbing against Nian Wanzhou a few times, it became even blacker...
"Oh no, it's ruined like this. Will the Fourth Elder blame me?" Nian Wanzhou looked at the mess of the alchemy furnace and spiritual plants and felt a little scared. What if the Fourth Elder really didn't prepare this for her? Wouldn't she have made a big mistake?
They also made a complete mess of this place.
"No, Master told me to come here before and mentioned that you could join in the alchemy." Nan Yu squatted next to Nian Wanzhou, looking at the two lumps of stuff. "Besides, you're the only one here besides me, so this alchemy furnace is only for you to use."
"Are these two lumps... pills?" Nan Yu dared not touch the alchemy furnace, as the temperature on it had not yet dissipated.
Nian Wanzhou was also speechless. She had no idea what this was. Her first attempt at alchemy had resulted in such a commotion, and she had even produced two black lumps...
