Chapter 173 Ximen Qianxue’s Ways to Control the Fire

In essence, the Elixir Furnace belonged to the auxiliary magical weapon. It had twelve levels. The higher the rank of the Elixir Furnace, the higher the rank of the refined drug, and the more successful in producing of elixir was.

Ximen Qianxue’s Elixir Furnace was a light red Yinyang gourd. It was small and delicate. Its hollow pattern was complex and profound. It was full of luster, smooth color, and exquisite workmanship. It had a feeling of pearl and jade. More importantly, it was full of spirit. Ding Hao was just a half baked Foundry Master, but in his view, it was absolutely a fine Elixir Furnace, at least one at level four.

It was good stuff!

A pale purple flame rose from Ximen Qianxue’s palm; it wrapped the pale red stove in it, then he began to preheat.

At this time, Ximen Qianxue looked serious and holy. She had devoted herself to the process of refining elixirs and forgot everything. Her left hand was white and slender. She gently waved in the air, and a jade jar on a lattice in the wall flew over and slightly tilted.

A dark purple powder flew out of the bottle and into the Elixir Furnace.

Swish!

As she waved constantly, the materials in the lattices flew out in sequence and automatically entered the red Yinyang gourd Elixir Furnace.

This process reflected Ximen Qianxue’s self-confidence and her plentiful strength.

She looked like a dancing fairy, but her eyes were always staring at the Elixir Furnace. She took out the medicine herbs and threw them into the furnace. Her every movement was fluent and accurate. With just one wave, she could send the precise weight of the material into the Elixir Furnace.

Ding Hao sat quietly beside her and watched. His eyes were shining.

“This little girl is impressive,” The Saber Master couldn’t help praising. “She has an Elixir Master’s demeanor. This set of actions to send medicine herbs into the furnace is called ‘Dancing Crane’. It seems simple, but it’s extremely difficult. Without more than ten years of hard practice, it’s absolutely impossible to do this kind of work. She is under 18 years old, but she has achieved such accomplishments, which only shows one thing.”

“What?” Ding Hao subconsciously asked.

“Haha, that only shows that this girl is an elixir genius, and her future achievements will be limitless,” The Saber Master said with regret. “Unfortunately, I can’t take her as my disciple. Otherwise, I’d really have the intention to teach her all my elixir knowledge.”

Ding Hao was very unhappy. He muttered, “You already have me, such a gifted disciple, so you don’t need a girl as your disciple.”

“That’s right.” The Saber Master thought about Ding Hao’s excellent talent on elixirs. She said with slight regret, “Unfortunately, this little girl is so good. She has great plasticity. In a few years, her youth will soon fade away. If she continues to be taught by the old teachers of this Sect, she’ll waste the golden time for cultivation.”

Ding Hao responded in his mind, “She has me! Haha, you can teach her through me, is that OK?”

The Saber Master became alert immediately. She asked, “What are you thinking, you fellow?” You fell in love with that girl, didn’t you?

The Sword Master ridiculed Ding Hao. He said, “Awesome! Little Chap Ding actually likes women older than him, haha…”

Ding Hao was very displeased. He smiled quietly and said nothing.

Soon, the sixteen herbs had been put into the Elixir Furnace, according to the demands Ding Hao had written down.


Ximen Qianxue sat cross-legged on the futon. Her fingers were white and thin. They were constantly forming beautiful Emblematic Gestures, which were Yinyang fire control prints. It was guided by the mental cultivation methods of the Taixuan Sword-seeking Scripture.

The purple flame caught Ding Hao’s attention.

“The Saber Master has said that it is the purple dark fire, one of the top ten best alchemy flames. Only those who have the constitution of purple-dark fire can use it. Qianxue’s talent is surely excellent. Although her purple-dark fire is still in the initial stage, it is amazing. Later, with the increase in her strength, her future will be limitless!”

Ding Hao praised quietly in his heart, but his eyes were always on Ximen Qianxue.

This was the first time that he watched an elixir pharmacist refining elixir at close quarters.

Ximen Qianxue’s methods of starting, controlling fire, throwing herbs in, sealing the furnace, guiding the fire, and refining the elixir were all very authentic and common. They were not opportunistic skills. She used a just and honorable way, which was more meaningful for Ding Hao to learn from.

Time went by minute by minute.

Ximen Qianxue looked solemn and holy, forgetting all external things, and completely immersed in refining elixirs.

This showed that in her heart, she subconsciously had great trust in Ding Hao. Otherwise, it was extremely dangerous for an elixir pharmacist to keep an outsider around at such a critical moment.

Ding Hao watched, holding his breath. He had achieved a lot.

Suddenly—

“Open!” Ximen Qianxue shouted.

.

Her thin fingers were forming different Emblematic Gestures in the air. The purple flame flickered sharply several times, then suddenly disappeared. The light red Elixir Furnace suddenly inclined and its cover opened. Three streamers flew out.

The air was filled with a refreshing fragrance.

“Collect!” Ximen Qianxue’s hand waved in the air, and her posture was beautiful. She timely swept over the mouth of that Elixir Furnace with her hands and collected the three light yellow streamers.

‘What a good hand technique!’

Ding Hao secretly admired.

Collecting elixir was the most critical step in the whole process of refining elixirs.

Elixirs were things against reality, so they had spirituality. After an elixir was formed, it would run away like a living creature. As the Elixir Furnace opened, if the elixir pharmacist did not collect it at once, it would escape. Once it escaped, it would be extremely difficult to find.

Especially those high-quality elixirs, which contained the elixir spirit; in addition to some experienced elixir pharmacists, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to capture.

The set of elixir-collecting techniques Ximen Qianxue had just shown was called Cloud Covers The Moon. The long sleeves were like a cloud and the elixir was like the moon. It was very poetic. It was also a very smart method. The pills under Level Nine could be collected successfully, but this skill was extremely difficult to practice and needed a very high talent to master.

However, the teacher in front of Ding Hao had practiced so dilligently and skillfully. The whole process was beautiful and full of skill, which showed that her accomplishments on Cloud Covers the Moon had reached a very high level.

“I made it.” As Ximen Qianxue opened her palm, three pale yellow pills gave off a pure and clear light, which was charming and exciting.
