Chapter 115 Hesitation
Nan Xiao cleared out a piece of space outside the room where Su Xun lived.
She placed the alchemy furnace on the open space and processed the spiritual plants in her hand. Now she only needed Mingcheng to bring the remaining spiritual plants over, and she could start refining directly.
Since Mingcheng's speed was too slow, Nan Xiao looked at the spiritual plant in his hand and decided to refine some strengthening pills first to consolidate his foundation.
It had only been less than two months since she broke through to the middle stage of foundation building, and now she had inexplicably reached the late stage of foundation building. Although it was a good thing, she still had to take some tonic pills to be on the safe side.
Mingcheng was holding a small bamboo basket filled with spiritual plants.
He wanted to shout, "The spiritual plant you requested is here," but when he saw Nan Xiao concentrating on refining the elixir, he silently swallowed his words. He placed the bamboo basket on the table beside him and went out to watch silently.
Mingcheng sat on a bamboo chair, his hands behind his head, muttering to himself, "Digging spiritual plants for her is fine, but why am I guarding the door for her now?"
He sat up straight at once: "I am the Little Demon Lord, a noble person, why do I feel like a slave now?"
"Whoever wants to guard this door can do so. He's going to sleep."
He stood up and took two steps before sitting back down again. He sighed and said, "Forget it. It won't be long anyway."
·······
Nan Xiao ate one of the refined tonic pills and put the rest into the medicine bottle.
Then she cleared out all the spiritual plants in the bamboo basket, took out a piece of deer grass, and began to refine the bone-growing and blood-melting pill. This was a high-level pill, and it was her first time trying it.
If the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill can be made, then she can try the Creation Heaven-Repairing Pill, so that she can give her eldest brother a surprise when she returns to the sect.
Nan Xiao suppressed his excitement and put all his energy into refining the elixir.
She carefully controlled the flames, and after the medicinal liquid was fully integrated, she began to condense and shape the pill.
After finishing all this, Nan Xiao was already sweating profusely.
It was the first time to refine a high-level elixir. In addition to being unfamiliar with the techniques, the control of spiritual fire and spiritual energy also required a higher level.
She gritted her teeth and cast the final seal. Now she sealed the furnace and warmed it up. She would know whether it was successful or not once she opened the furnace.
Nan Xiao also took advantage of this opportunity to swallow a few spiritual pills to replenish the spiritual energy he had consumed.
Fortunately, she broke through to the late stage of foundation building. Otherwise, with the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building, if she tried to refine high-level elixirs, she might drain all the spiritual energy in her body and might not be able to condense the elixir successfully.
Thinking of this, Nan Xiao had an idea.
The spiritual plant that made the Creation Heaven-Repairing Pill, her cultivation in the late stage of foundation building... was just enough to refine high-level pills.
Is this really a coincidence?
The alchemy furnace began to emit the fragrance of elixir. When the time came, Nan Xiao threw the things in her mind aside and didn't care who this person was, as long as he didn't harm her.
After all, she is just a small foundation-building person and has nothing.
Nan Xiao opened the lid, and a refreshing fragrance filled his face. When the white smoke dissipated, the bottom of the furnace was revealed.
She poured out all the pills, one top-grade bone-growing and blood-melting pill, two top-grade pills, and the remaining two were not formed and failed.
Overall, Nan Xiao was quite satisfied.
She took the only top-grade blood-melting pill and walked to where Su Xun was lying. She pinched his mouth with one hand and put the pill into his mouth. Finally, she used her spiritual power to catalyze the pill and swallowed it down his throat.
Nan Xiao rearranged the quilt for him and said, "Have a good rest, Fourth Brother."
Then she returned to the alchemy furnace. This incident reminded her that the world of cultivation is full of dangers and no one knows what they will encounter in the next second. She needs to refine more life-saving pills such as the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pills and prepare some for her fellow disciples.
She did it right away and immersed herself in making the elixir from day to night, reaching a state of selflessness.
At this time, Qiao Yue came back from outside with other disciples of the sect.
I saw Mingcheng lying on the bamboo chair, looking so leisurely.
She frowned and said unhappily, "Didn't I tell you to stay by my sister's side? Why are you outside? What if my sister wakes up and I can't find her?"
Mingcheng: “…”
He owes them.
Qiao Yue continued, "What are you looking at me for? I'm asking you a question. If it weren't for my junior sister liking your face and thinking that seeing you the first thing she saw when she woke up would make her happier, do you think you would still be sitting here?"
Ming Cheng was speechless. He sighed and explained, "Your junior sister has woken up. She is refining the elixir inside now. Do you want to go in?"
Qiao Yue just stopped pushing the door.
It’s better not to disturb Junior Sister while she is refining the elixir.
She said, "Then you just watch here and don't let anyone disturb her."
Mingcheng waved his hand: "I understand."
······
Nan Xiao's previous batches of elixirs all had minor flaws. Most of them were top-grade elixirs, while the proportion of top-grade elixirs was small.
It was not until the next few furnaces that she slowly grasped the essence of controlling the spiritual fire, and finally succeeded in refining a furnace full of top-grade pills.
She packed the pills into six small bottles of different colors, with two pills in each bottle, one top-grade pill and one ultimate-grade pill.
Although this top-grade bone-growing and blood-melting pill is not as effective as the best-grade medicine, it can still save lives in critical moments.
Nan Xiao was just about to put away the alchemy furnace, thinking that he would stop here for today.
When her eyes fell on the spiritual plants of the Green Wood Lotus Heart Grass, a voice in her heart told her that this was the best place for refining.
Although the Bone-Growing and Blood-Melting Pill and the Creation Heaven-Repairing Pill are both high-level pills.
But it was different for Nan Xiao. Although the deer grass was precious, it had been successfully transplanted and planted in the sect. It didn't matter even if she failed, but there was only one plant of the green wood lotus heart grass.
She placed her hand on the spiritual plant, hesitant. Although she wanted to help her senior brother refine the Heaven-Repairing Pill, there was only one spiritual plant. If she failed, she would hate herself for the rest of her life.
Just as Nan Xiao was swaying, Xiaoya rubbed her wrist with a leaf.
It said: "Xiaoxiao, Grandpa Tree said it can help you, so you can refine it."
Nan smiled and said, "You were sleeping, how did you wake up? And how did Grandpa Tree know, huh?"
Xiaoya: "Xiaoxiao, I have a connection with you, have you forgotten? When you are particularly obsessed with something, this thought will also reach me, and I will tell Grandpa Tree, and Grandpa Tree will say that he has a way."
Nan Xiao became interested. She only knew that after she and Xiaoya made a contract, they could communicate with each other through consciousness, but she didn't know much else.
She asked: "Do you know what I usually think about?"
Doesn't that mean there is no privacy at all?
Xiaoya answered seriously: "Of course not, I will only know when you want me to know. Or like now, when you are particularly obsessed with something, I will know."
Nan Xiao nodded, and she felt relieved.
Otherwise, Xiaoya knows what she is thinking. What's the difference between this and streaking?
Although the bud is a plant, it has self-awareness and is no different from a human except that it does not have a human body.
Xiaoya urged: "Xiaoxiao, are you still practicing?"
