Chapter 111: Crafting a Body
In the Falling Star Pavilion.
On an open field, Xiao Tian sat cross-legged. Before him were the Myriad Beast Cauldron and various medicinal ingredients.
"Currently, my alchemy skills aren't enough to refine the Bone Merging Blood Pill at the peak of the seventh tier," Xiao Tian said slowly. "However, I am confident in refining the Yin-Yang Life Soul Pill, a mid-level seventh-tier pill. It has the miraculous effect of merging souls and restoring life. Although it's not as effective as the Bone Merging Blood Pill, I can boost its quality to high seventh-tier, making the difference negligible."
Venerable Tian Huo smiled and said, "Go ahead and refine it. We've waited for this day for hundreds of years."
"Alright." Xiao Tian nodded, then took out the stone talisman and began extracting the essence of the herbs.
After a while, he waved his hand, and the verdant flame entered the Myriad Beast Cauldron. Under Xiao Tian's control, the extracted essences started to merge into the cauldron.
Xiao Tian closed his eyes, and the key points of refining the Yin-Yang Life Soul Pill flowed through his mind like a stream. Even with the help of the stone talisman, refining a mid-level seventh-tier pill wasn't easy.
After several days, the cauldron suddenly trembled, and a clear hum echoed through the air. At the same time, an exceptionally rich medicinal fragrance erupted from the cauldron like a volcanic eruption. The source of this fragrance was a perfectly round pill enveloped in verdant flames.
As the medicinal energy surged, dark clouds gathered in the sky. Within the clouds, silver lightning rolled like serpents.
"A seventh-tier pill... is about to be born?" This scene caused everyone in the Falling Star Pavilion to look up.
Although the pill was formed, Xiao Tian didn't open the cauldron immediately. He used his soul power to communicate with the spiritual energy of the world. His soul had been further tempered in the Tianmu Blood Pool, bringing him close to the level of a Tiansoul Master.
With his powerful soul force, sensing the spiritual energy was easy. Before obtaining the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, gathering this spiritual energy would have been difficult for Xiao Tian. But now, with the talisman's power, he easily gathered the spiritual energy into a mist.
"Bite!" Xiao Tian bit the tip of his tongue, spraying a mist of blood into the flames.
"Blood Sacrifice, Spirit Return!"
Instantly, the spiritual mist around the pill surged into it.
"Boom!" Xiao Tian slapped the cauldron, and a verdant pillar of fire shot into the sky.
"Crash!"
As soon as the pill left the cauldron, a silver bolt of lightning as thick as an arm descended from the dark clouds, illuminating the sky.
"Absorb!" Xiao Tian flew up, and a black hole appeared from his body, swallowing all the lightning.
The thunder's tempering gradually strengthened his body. After some time, the thunder ceased, and the dark clouds dissipated.
"It's done!" Xiao Tian landed with the pill in hand. He opened his palm, revealing a round pill of black and red. One side was cool, the other warm.
Yao Lao examined it and nodded. "Excellent, the quality has reached the peak of the seventh tier."
Xiao Tian smiled. "Thanks to your spirit-boosting technique, Master. Without it, I couldn't have improved the quality."
He handed the pill to Venerable Tian Huo and brought out the Earth Demon Old Ghost's body.
"Let's start crafting the body," Xiao Tian said, and the corpse floated in the air as he summoned the verdant flames. "Give me a strand of your soul power," he requested of Tian Huo.
"Alright," Tian Huo agreed, splitting off a strand of his soul and handing it to Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian placed it into the corpse, then took out a jade bottle.
Opening the bottle, he poured out the violet-red blood filled with violent energy. This was the blood essence of the Scorpion Dragon Beast.
"Tian Huo, take the pill. When I give the signal, enter the body," Xiao Tian instructed as he began the refining process.
Under his control, the beast blood merged into the corpse, reviving the pale skin with vitality.
Seeing the revitalized body, Tian Huo took the pill and waited, his face filled with anticipation.
After about half an hour, the corpse's eyes suddenly opened, showing faint signs of life.
"Tian Huo, now!" Xiao Tian commanded. Tian Huo, ready, wrapped himself around the pill and entered the body.
"Tian Huo, endure the flames to be reborn," Xiao Tian reminded, continuing the refining.
This process lasted three days. Finally, a vast aura spread from the body, even suppressing the verdant flames.
"What a strong aura! Even stronger than Master!" Mu Qingluan exclaimed from a distant mountain peak.
Watching the revived Tian Huo, Venerable Feng was delighted. "It worked! It worked!"
Tian Huo clasped his fists toward Xiao Tian and Venerable Feng. "I owe my revival to you both!"
"No need for thanks," Venerable Feng waved it off. "This was a trial run using you."
"I volunteered," Tian Huo laughed. "Reviving feels wonderful!"
Xiao Tian asked, "What is your current cultivation level, Tian Huo?"
"Just reached four-star Dou Zun," Tian Huo replied. "But with some years of recovery, I can return to my peak of five-star Dou Zun."
"That's pretty good," Xiao Tian nodded, satisfied that Tian Huo had recovered more power than expected.
In the original story, Tian Huo used a mid-level seventh-tier Yin-Yang Life Soul Pill and Yun Shan's body, a two-star Dou Zong. Xiao Tian used a peak seventh-tier pill and the body of a seven-star Dou Zong, yielding better results.
"When I reach the eighth tier as an alchemist, I can refine the Fu Ling Qing Dan, and Tian Huo will fully recover," Xiao Tian said.
