**

Of course, regarding this matter, she felt no resistance at all. After all, after spending so much time together, her heart had already been quietly occupied by him.

Although she hadn’t managed to complete the final step when helping him dispel the fire poison before, it had still made her quite happy.

”Right, Brother Lin Feng, tonight… do you need me to detoxify you?”

As she spoke, a blush surfaced on Ye Xin Lan’s perfectly shaped oval face. Her jade-white hand couldn’t help rising to her rosy lips.

Back when Lin Feng first collided with her, the fire poison in his body had been fierce, and his emotions were already a little out of control.

The moment he saw her, he pressed her down directly and forced that ”big thing” inside. That sudden action even caused her jaw to dislocate on the spot.

Of course, afterward Lin Feng immediately treated her when he saw what had happened. Hearing her enticing words now, Lin Feng’s heart stirred with excitement.

But thinking of the tasks still waiting for him, he let out a disappointed sigh and said, ”I have some matters to deal with recently, next time.”

At his words, Ye Xin Lan nodded with a trace of disappointment, then gathered up the items he had given her.

She quickly leaned in to kiss his lips, picked up the tea bowl he had just finished, and as she ran off she shyly called back, ”Brother Lin Feng, if anything comes up later, remember to call me.”

”This girl…”

Touching the spot on his lips where a faint pink mark remained, Lin Feng smiled and shook his head. With that, he rose in one leap and landed inside the altar.

”Clang~”

He brushed a finger across his storage ring, and in a faint flash of light, a massive crimson cauldron appeared before him.

”Let’s hope it succeeds this time.”

Lin Feng exhaled lightly. His palm turned upward and a dark-red flame rose from his hand.

With a flick of his finger, the flame whooshed into the Myriad Beast Cauldron, igniting into a vigorous blaze. Then he drew from his chest the storage ring Ye Xin Lan had given him and took out a large quantity of medicinal ingredients.

After confirming everything was correct, he immediately tossed them into the cauldron and began refining the pill.

”Rumble—”

A few days later, thick black clouds suddenly gathered above the altar.

Rough silver lightning danced wildly within. Before long, a bolt shot straight down from the clouds, striking the giant cauldron in front of Lin Feng. Yet when the Pill Lightning descended, Lin Feng did not summon the Earth Demon Puppet.

Instead, he extended both hands and formed a series of seals. His palms faced the sky, and a powerful suction force burst out from them. The descending lightning, drawn by that force, veered sharply and streaked toward him.

The instant the Pill Lightning touched his palms, Lin Feng’s hands wove another seal. The lightning, thick as a man’s waist, was forcibly controlled, gathering before him into a silver thunder ball.

He then embraced the enormous sphere with both arms, compressing it madly. In just a short time the silver sphere shrank to the size of a human head, but the silver light within grew even more dazzling.

”Come out!”

Lin Feng suddenly shouted, thrusting a hand directly into the thunder ball.

He drew out something invisible and intangible and flung it aside. Those unseen fragments seemed to melt back into heaven and earth, vanishing completely. These were the so-called powers of Heaven and Earth.

Because of the presence of these forces, the Pill Lightning was far more violent than the lightning condensed by an ordinary thunder-attribute cultivator.

Lin Feng had failed countless times before and finally summarized his experience. The reason the pill would explode soon after he let the Pill Lightning touch it was precisely because these forces were causing trouble.

If he did not remove them, he could not continue to the next step. Immediately he flicked his finger, sending the sphere of Pill Lightning into the Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron. The sphere then engulfed the pill inside the cauldron.

”Zzzzt~”

In an instant, a massive amount of far gentler silver lightning began to erode the pill from the outside in.

Meanwhile, under the continual tempering of that Pill Lightning, the pill grew ever more round and pure.

After a while, the Pill Lightning power within the cauldron was finally exhausted and slowly dispersed, revealing the pill hidden inside, now even more refined after the tempering of the lightning.

Lin Feng beckoned with his hand, drawing the pill into his palm for a careful look. As he examined it, he discovered that this seven-tier pill was astonishingly pure and perfectly rounded, far stronger than other pills of the same grade he had refined directly.

”Excellent, so it really was that Heaven and Earth might causing trouble—finally a success!”

Seeing that the pill was not destroyed by the lightning as before, Lin Feng exclaimed in excitement.

Ever since he had noticed, back in the Western Wasteland Desert, that the Pill Lightning contained abundant energy, he had been thinking about how to develop and utilize that power.

After all, he couldn’t keep using Pill Lightning just to temper puppets, and besides, he didn’t have that many puppets to temper. Thus, the best way to use Pill Lightning was naturally on pills.

After half a year of experiments, he had finally succeeded.

The underlying principle was not too complicated:

At the moment the Pill Lightning descended, he would seize a portion of the lightning’s power, then, through a special transformation, strip away the might of Heaven and Earth within it, and afterward guide the much-gentler Pill Lightning into the pill itself, using the power of that lightning to temper and elevate the medicine.

Of course, for the part about removing the Heaven and Earth might, he had drawn on concepts from the Bloodthirsty Spirit Formation.

That formation shattered the cultivator inside, stripped impurities from their blood and flesh,and transmitted the remaining energy to the array’s user.

When he removed the Heaven-and-Earth power from the Pill Lightning, the process was somewhat similar.

”Not bad. Now that I have this secret method, I’ll have far more confidence when exchanging insights with other alchemists.”

Lin Feng produced a jade bottle, placed the pill inside, and stored it in his ring, speaking with delight.

After all, if he had nothing of his own creation, it would inevitably be awkward when discussing techniques with other alchemists. The Supreme King Pill recipe he had previously created was only a fifth-tier pill.

Now that he was already a peak seventh-tier alchemist, he could no longer treat that formula as his signature work. But this secret technique—this was more than enough!

”Right, this secret technique has succeeded, but it still doesn’t have a name.”

Thinking of the technqiue he had developed, Lin Feng fell into contemplation.

After a moment he rubbed his chin and said, ”This technique is mainly about using Pill Lightning to temper pills… how about calling it Pill Tempering Technique.”
