Chapter 135 – Five Elemental Pill
“Older brother, how does my wine taste?”
Jiang Chen asked with a smile on his face.
What? How’s the taste? Damn it, this is Energy Spring Water, can it be tasted? So, he really considers it to be wine!
“You’re doing this on purpose! You’re doing this to purposely piss your father off!”
Guo Shan really wished to slap Jiang Chen’s face with his shoe.
“Why does older brother say that? I brought the wine here specifically for older brother, but not only did you not appreciate it, you even said I was trying to piss you off… this is so sad. Since older brother doesn’t like our wine, Big Yellow, Xiao Yu, let the three of us finish this wine, older brother can just enjoy his own herbal wine.”
Jiang Chen raised up the jade pot and poured another full glass of Energy Spring Water for Big Yellow and Xiao Yu, and he purposely skipped Guo Shan’s glass.
Jiang Chen nodded in agreement with a smile on his face. To him, pill concoction was an easy job. Although it was tough to concoct the Five Elemental Pill because ordinary alchemists couldn’t control the restriction between the five elements, to Jiang Chen, it was a piece of cake.
“Alright.”
Guo Shan turned around and walked into the plantation field, then he gathered the Golden Mushroom, Water Lotus Flower and Loess Sand. Then, he returned to his own courtyard and took out the two other herbs. Not long after that, he prepared all five herbs and placed them on the table.
“Brother, these five herbs have been growing for quite some time. They are more than enough to concoct a low Earth rank Five Elemental Pill.”
Guo Shan said.
“Perfect! Thank you, older brother!”
Jiang Chen cupped his fist towards Guo Shan. This was the benefit of becoming friends with Guo Shan. If he hadn’t formed this relationship, it would take Jiang Chen countless amounts of effort to obtain these five herbs by himself.
“Older brother, I’m going to start now. You should pay attention, it might help increase your pill concoction skills.”
After saying that, Jiang Chen waved his hand, and all five herbs on the table flew towards him. At the same time, a massive force of soul energy was unleashed from his body. A shocked expression immediately emerged on Guo Shan’s face when he felt this strong soul energy.
“He’s only a Late Mortal Core warrior, so how come his soul energy is so powerful? It is at least comparable to a Late Heavenly Core warrior!”
Guo Shan was shocked, but it was just the beginning.
Two balls of flame shot out from Jiang Chen’s palms and turned into a flame sea. Underneath Jiang Chen’s control, all ingredients were thrown into the flame sea at the same time.
Guo Shan was stunned by Jiang Chen’s actions. These five herbs of different elements were restricting each other, and it would be extremely hard to merge them together, even if they had been purified separately. Jiang Chen had the audacity to purify them all together, this was unbelievable! It required precise control from the alchemist himself, any neglect would turn all ingredients into ashes.
“Older brother, although the five elements are restricting each other, they are also engendering one another. As long as you can find the turning point within, it is actually pretty simple to concoct the Five Elemental Pill. Purifying all five herbs together is actually much simpler than doing it one by one.”
Jiang Chen explained.
Guo Shan became even more astonished. Pill concoction required complete concentration from the alchemist, but Jiang Chen could actually talk to him while concocting a pill, and more importantly, he could still maintain the stability of these herbs. He wouldn’t have believed this if he hadn’t witnessed it himself.
Besides, what Jiang Chen said had struck Guo Shan. Everyone knew the theory of restricting and engendering one another, but few knew the true meaning behind it. Jiang Chen had showed him the answer with his actions. So, it was actually easier to purify all five elements together than doing it separately. It was actually a trap that many alchemists were unaware of, and it had caused them all difficulty with concocting the Five Elemental Pill.
Guo Shan held his breath as he stared at Jiang Chen’s hands. Jiang Chen kept forming different mysterious seals with his fingers as he controlled the fire. Underneath the scorching flame, all five herbs had begun their purifying process. They were tumbling and rolling within the flame sea, and underneath Jiang Chen’s precise control, they never showed any signs of turmoil because of restricting and engendering one another.
