C331 Hidden in the Dao of Alchemy
As for saving Yu Dayuv, Daoist priest Fenghuo couldn't be bothered with it anymore.
"Bang!" An explosive sound suddenly rang out. Although Daoist priest Fenghuo had long been mentally prepared, he was still shocked and his gloomy mood could not help but tighten. After a while, he calmed down and actually had a strange thought, "I'm finally free!" For a moment, he could not be bothered to start thinking. He just stared at Du Qi, his eyes empty and firm. A trace of a calm and relaxed smile naturally appeared on his face.
After a long time, Daoist priest Fenghuo saw that Du Qi was still sitting there perfectly fine, and he did not feel any impact that he had expected. He could not help feeling confused. What was going on?
In the confusion, Daoist priest Fenghuo fixed his eyes on Du Qi. Suddenly, his eyes focused, and then he felt a surge of ecstasy from the depths of his heart. He suddenly jumped up from his chair and called out with concern, "Young Master Du, are you alright?"
From the beginning to the end, Du Qi had never thought that he, who thought he had learned the most brilliant alchemy skill in the world, would have such a dangerous alchemy process. That was why he took the initiative to request to concoct pills for Daoist priest Fenghuo. After going through so much danger and seeing that he had succeeded, he was about to lose his life. Du Qi had never regretted his actions today, but he had always held a thought in his heart. That was to use all of his strength to wrap around the boiling medicinal liquid to prevent it from splashing out and injuring Daoist Firewind. Therefore, when he was exhausted, he still tried his best to control the True Yuan furnace that had become very large. He did not have any extravagant hope that the danger would be completely eliminated in the end. It was just a subconscious action. If he insisted on saying that he still had other thoughts, he just wanted to minimize the danger.
Although Du Qi's thoughts were beautiful, at this moment, he was no longer able to do as he wished. He was simply unable to control the swelling and explosive power of the medicinal liquid. His thoughts could only be a beautiful wish.
When he realized that he would not be able to reduce the damage to Daoist priest Fenghuo no matter what, he could only condense the remaining true essence in his body and send the furnace that was holding the medicinal liquid to a corner of the room that was far away from me, Daoist Huo. This would reduce the damage to Daoist priest Fenghuo, but who knew that his only strength would surge out. However, there was no reaction like a mud cow entering the sea. It was instantly absorbed by the furnace. Not only did he not move the furnace even a little bit as he wished, but it also caused the medicinal liquid to boil even more fiercely, and the smoke to surge even more violently.
Under the exhaustion, the furnace finally broke free from Du Qi's control and suddenly expanded rapidly. But at this moment, the speed at which the furnace expanded was far from the expansion speed of the medicinal liquid smoke. The furnace suddenly exploded under the control of losing control. The wild and violent force ruthlessly charged at the thin air wall that Du Qi had previously placed around the furnace, causing the balloon to rapidly expand. How could the originally thin air wall withstand such a collision? In an instant, it was pushed until it was a thin layer. The boiling medicinal liquid smoke had the possibility of bursting out of the air wall at any time.
Du Qi used his last bit of strength and was no longer able to control the dangerous situation in front of him. He could only helplessly wait for the final moment to arrive. At this moment, his heart was calm. The only thing that he could not let go of was that he had implicated the innocent Daoist priest Fenghuo and caused Looh Miaoer, Ma Yuxiao and the other girls' beautiful wishes to fail.
Suddenly, an irresistible force suddenly passed through the thin wall of air like a violent wave and flowed into Du Qi's body continuously like a great river. In an instant, it filled Du Qi's acupuncture points and meridians.
At this time, there was no true essence in Du Qi's body that could resist it. He could only allow that force to run rampant and flood his body. How could Du Qi's weak body withstand such a torment? Under the impact of the violent force, Du Qi could only feel his mind trembling. His throat felt itchy and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His entire body immediately collapsed onto the chair.
That force was like rain after a long drought to Du Qi, who had already used up all of his true essence. Not only did it save him from the danger of exhausting all of his energy, but it also made him lose all of his true essence. However, that force was indeed a bit too fierce. Du Qi was caught off guard and was injured, causing him to spurt out blood.
Under the effect of the powerful force, the blood that Du Qi suddenly spurted out condensed into blood arrows in the air. "Sizzle!" The blood shot into the medicinal liquid that was gradually turning into a paste with a loud explosive sound. It stirred up the boiling medicinal liquid and emitted a red mist. In an instant, it filled the entire balloon and completely swallowed the smoke and gas wall that the medicinal liquid emitted.
Du Qi had used up all of his true essence and was fortunate enough to be able to pour in this strength in time. Instead of exhausting all of his True Yuan, he was lucky enough to take that force for his own use without any hindrance. And just as he had used up all of his strength, a new force was about to be born. ... The weak rebounding force knocked him down into the chair, making him unable to move for a moment. The red mist had already devoured the smoke and the wall of air. He could not control the situation at all. He could only let it happen.
However, the development of the situation was beyond Du Qi's expectation. After the red mist swallowed all the smoke and the wall of gas, it automatically replaced the gas wall and tightly wrapped the boiling medicinal liquid. After rapidly melting into the medicinal liquid, it suddenly solidified. A series of crisp sounds rang out. A dark red pill the size of a broad bean fell from midair. They piled up like a small mountain on the white silk.
Daoist priest Fenghuo, who had long since been disheartened and had prepared for the worst, also couldn't help but jump up from his seat when he saw this. He hurriedly greeted Du Qi and didn't wait for him to respond. He started dancing like a child again and shouted excitedly, "Success, success, finally success..."
While he was in high spirits, Daoist priest Fenghuo suddenly saw Du Qi still sitting in the chair as if he had gone into a trance. There was no reaction at all and his heart sank. He immediately stopped all his movements. He eagerly asked again, "Young Master Du, what happened to you?"
When the pill fell, under the effect of the force, Du Qi's physical strength had already recovered, and his cultivation base had improved by leaps and bounds. Even the internal injuries he had suffered because of the excessive force had also healed without any aid. Du Qi did not feel the slightest bit of joy towards his success in concocting the pill this time. Recalling the situation during the pill refinement process, he instead felt a wave of lingering fear. Remembering what he had just experienced, a light suddenly flashed in Du Qi's mind. He suddenly understood the true meaning of the "Dao of Alchemy" that was passed down from the past.
The so-called "Dao of Alchemy" was not a pill that people used to improve their cultivation base or even reach immortality. The method to obtain the supreme Immortal Dao in the end was just like what he had just done. When the pill was about to be formed, the alchemist would absorb the medicinal strength of the medicinal pill and use it to make up for the loss of true essence when refining the pill. He would use it to increase his cultivation base.
