A series of light cracking sounds came from within the pill furnace.
The sound was very faint, but to Cha Wenliang’s ears, it was like thunder.
His face turned pale, and he immediately shouted, "Not good! The pill furnace is acting up!"
Just as he finished speaking, a loud rumbling erupted from the pill furnace, and then a violent wave of elixir qi burst forth, blowing several women who were assisting nearby far away.
Moreover, Cha Wenliang also felt the temperature of the pill furnace rapidly rising, to the point where his face began to ache from the heat.
You can imagine how critical the situation was.
But after hearing Cha Wenliang’s shout, Xue An remained calm, and instead, with extreme composure, formed a complex set of seal decisions with his hands.
As the seal decisions were made, the flames beneath the pill furnace changed from white to blue, forming a lotus shape to support the furnace.
The disturbance inside the pill furnace also gradually subsided with the change in flames.
Cha Wenliang wiped a cold sweat from his brow and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness, that really scared me just now!"
Xue An gave him a faintly amused look, "Were you that scared?"
Cha Wenliang chuckled wryly, "You don’t understand, I have been traumatized by explosions to the point that any disturbance with the pill furnace makes me involuntarily tremble!"
"Haha!" Xue An chuckled lightly, then turned his gaze to the pill furnace and said calmly, "Don’t worry, with me here, nothing like that will happen again!"
Next came a long and tedious alchemy session.
Due to the large number of ingredients, this batch of elixirs would take even longer than usual.
This tested the pill master’s sustained fire control abilities.
Many pill masters failed at this stage due to mental exhaustion.
At first, Cha Wenliang was a bit worried, after all, Xue An’s cultivation level was only Immortal Venerable, could he really withstand such a prolonged consumption of elixir fire?
But after three days passed, he saw Xue An still energetic and not at all showing signs of fatigue, and only then did he relax.
"Mom, what kind of elixir is dad refining? Why is it taking so long?" Nian Nian asked as she snuggled up to An Yan.
"Dad is refining the most miraculous elixir in the world, which will help many people once completed!" An Yan explained.
Nian Nian nodded, half understanding.
Xiang Xiang couldn’t help but sniff deeply and then said, "Wow, it smells so good. Is this elixir yummy?"
Actually, starting from the fifth day, a faint fragrance wafted out from the pill furnace, but no one thought too much about it, except for Xiang Xiang, this little foodie, who couldn’t help but think about whether the elixir was tasty upon smelling it.
Ao Shu couldn’t help but laugh, "Xiang Xiang, is your little head filled with nothing else but thoughts of eating good food?"
"Hehe!" Xiang Xiang laughed a bit bashfully, "No, no, it’s not like eating is the only thing I think about."
But Nian Nian, who was beside her, unhesitatingly exposed Xiang Xiang’s pretense, pursing her lips.
"How could it not be? You said just yesterday that you want to eat all the delicious food in the world!"
Xiang Xiang’s face reddened, and she glared helplessly at Nian Nian.
"You say that, but aren’t you the same?"
"How am I the same?"
"The other day when I secretly took out ice cream, you didn’t eat any less than I did!"
"That was because you couldn’t finish it, and I was just helping you eat it!"
"Nonsense, there’s no ice cream that I, Xue Xiang, can’t finish! You were just being greedy!"
The two little girls started their usual bickering.
Ao Shu was amused and couldn’t help pinching both of their cheeks, "You two little girls are so adorable that it makes people want to bite you!"
Even Yue Qinghuan couldn’t help but smile.
But just then, an extremely pleasant sound suddenly came from the high platform.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the sound.
