Chapter 233 Refining 2
Different pills require different flames, and the Water Resonance Pill prefers a gentler flame. This is because the three herbs used to refine it are all water attributed. Too high a temperature would cause their medicinal properties to evaporate into the air.
"Water Cold Leaf," Blaze Regret muttered. With a flick of his hand, the leaf that resembled flowing water instantly shattered. Wrapped in the pale yellow flame, the entire leaf transformed into a drop of clear liquid, filling the room with a faint, refreshing coolness.
"Go."
At Blaze Regret's command, the drop of clear liquid slowly fell into the pill cauldron. Instantly, a circle of clear light appeared around the cauldron, flickering and looking extremely beautiful.
"So beautiful!" The female members of the Patel family, seeing this scene, had their eyes sparkling. The once tedious process of pill refining could indeed be so gorgeous.
Moments later, Blaze Regret relaxed his hand. The second herb, Resonating Spirit Grass, was also placed inside. After melting, it quickly fused with the drop of liquid, and a rich medicinal fragrance continuously emanated from it.
"Buzz!"
A peculiar sound rang out as the light circle around the cauldron split into several more, intertwining and seemingly rotating slowly.
"Just merging these two herbs took nearly half the time. No wonder the Water Resonance Pill is so difficult to refine."
In Blaze Regret's dark eyes, the pale yellow flame flickered gently. With another wave of his hand, a cyan blue bead hovered above the cauldron, enveloping it in a faint blue spiritual energy.

"This Water Life Pearl should be placed inside the pill cauldron. Why is he using it this way?" Star Megami's thoughts raced. No matter how much he racked his brain, he couldn't fathom Blaze Regret's reasoning behind this action.
"Hmm?" Patel Rong's aged eyes slightly opened. Seeing the Water Life Pearl emitting spiritual energy, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Previously, during Star Megami and the others' pill refining, there was no such step. Could it be that this young man really knows how to refine the Water Resonance Pill?
Thinking of this, Patel Rong's withered hand began to tremble faintly. If Blaze Regret could truly refine the Water Resonance Pill and neutralize the snake venom from the Fire refined Serpent, he would be willing to sacrifice all of the Patel family's wealth.
Wealth can always be earned again, but once a life is lost, everything ends.
"Fortunately, the Medicine Emperor's Seed contains detailed instructions for refining this pill. Otherwise, even a third grade alchemist would likely ruin it."
Blaze Regret sighed lightly in his heart. With a slight exertion of his hand, the Water Life Pearl's mist spraying speed increased significantly.
The Water Life Pearl is the most crucial part of the Water Life Tree. Once the tree matures, all of its essence flows into the Water Life Pearl, causing the tree itself to rapidly wither. This makes the water attributed energy within the Water Life Pearl exceptionally pure, though it is also quite expensive.
Time swiftly passed. The radiance of the Water Life Pearl quickly dimmed, and cracks began to appear on its surface. The crisp sound of shattering startled Swith Mark, who had been focused on his work.
"What's happening?" Swith Mark asked with a frown.
"It must have failed," Star Megami said, somewhat uncertain. But seeing Blaze Regret's calm demeanor, an unsettling feeling crept into his heart, as if today's events were not unfolding as he had anticipated.
"It mustn't succeed. Otherwise, that Patel Shin will get an easy ride." Unlike the other Patel family members who were praying, Patel kin was maliciously cursing in his heart, completely disregarding Patel Rong's life.
However, as time went on, a perfectly round, cyan blue pill finally took shape. At the moment the Water Life Pearl completely shattered, it popped out of the cauldron with a sound and was caught by Blaze Regret.
Success!
Patel Rong's eyes trembled, and the Patel family members burst into excited cheers. Only Patel kin clenched his teeth in frustration, his face full of unwillingness.
"Refine what? Do you think this is child's play? Patriarch Patel, don't listen to his nonsense. I have a prescription for a clear water solution here. Once I prepare it for you, using this solution will cleanse you and remove most of the fire snake's venom." Start Megami quickly interjected.
The clear crystal Water Resonance Pill lay quietly in Blaze Regret's palm. Several faint blue water rings appeared around the pill and gradually faded away as the pill's fragrance spread.
"This kid, how could he possibly refine a Water Resonance Pill!" Star Megami gritted his teeth, feeling almost suffocated as he looked at the flawless Water Resonance Pill.
Swith Mark was also stunned, feeling as if he had been slapped hard across the face, his cheeks burning with pain. The book in his hand slipped to the ground, and he didn't even react.
"Patel Shin, help me give this pill to the head of the Patel family," Blaze Regret said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Patel Shin hurriedly took the Water Resonance Pill and handed it to Patel Rong, his eyes full of excitement.
In the Patel family, his status was extremely low, so his cultivation resources were very scarce. Until now, he was only a third tier warrior grade, which was nothing in Patel Rong's eyes. If it weren't for finding Blaze Regret, the alchemist, he wouldn't even have the luxury of meeting Patel Rong.
Patel Rong's hand trembled as he tried to grasp the Water Resonance Pill, but he couldn't hold it up. He lowered his arm and smiled bitterly, "Forget it, you help me."
Hearing this, Patel Shin quickly raised his hand and carefully placed the pill into Patel Rong's mouth.
Patel Rong closed his eyes, his throat moved, and the Water Resonance Pill fell into his stomach. A cool sensation quickly spread throughout his body, a feeling of comfort he had never experienced before.
"Buzz!"
