Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Borrowing Your Fire

Translator: 549690339

Li Chong’s face was pale, with an undeni?ble fatigue, but his eyes were particularly bright, revealing excitement.

Once the internal and external fires reached a certain level, Li Chong once again lifted the furnace lid and instantly a fierce flame sprouted within the Pill Furnace, almost forming a column of fire shooting straight into the sky.

Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning, Li Chong threw the materials for the Bone Renewal Pill into the Pill Furnace one by one.

The moment these materials entered the Pill Furnace, they were reduced to liquid by the extremely high temperature.

The advantage of using Internal and External Fire was its high efficiency which skipped the step of reducing the materials into a liquid.

However, there was a very important point, and that was the control of the fire’s heat.

The combined temperature of the internal and external fire was terrifying. If the fire was just a bit stronger, it would evaporate the materials as soon as they entered the furnace.

Once the liquid evaporated, all efforts would have been in vain.

Quite clearly, Li Chong had excellent control over the temperature of the internal and external fire; the materials were perfectly melted into a liquid form without evaporating due to excessive heat.

Watching this scene, Fang Lin nodded silently. Although he did not admire Li Chong as a person, his Pill Refining skills were decent, which was worth a watch.

If Li Chong knew about Fang Lin’s evaluation of himself, he would probably spit out blood on the spot. His alchemical skills were unmatched among his generation in Qian Country.

In Fang Lin’s mouth, however, he was merely worth a watch.

As each material turned to liquid and entered the Pill Furnace, sweat began to trickle down Li Chong’s forehead. Even if the sweat entered his eyes, he didn’t blink.

He had no choice because at this critical moment, if there was the slightest mistake, all his efforts would be wasted.

By using Internal and External Fire Refining Skill, Li Chong had pushed himself to the edge.

Fang Lin was still enjoying the show without any intention of making a move. Ouyang Jing became restless. What are you doing just watching? Don’t you have to start?!

Ouyang Jing really wanted to shout to remind Fang Lin, but it was the assessment period, and no one could disturb the two. Ouyang Jing could only worry in silence.

Li Chong didn’t glance at whether Fang Lin had started or not. He was fully engrossed in the process of utilizing the Internal and External Fire Technique, and he couldn’t afford to be distracted.

After watching for a while, Fang Lin finally turned his attention back to his Pill Furnace, the corners of his mouth curling up in a smile.

If someone who knew Fang Lin saw this expression, they would realize that he was up to no good.

Fang Lin placed one hand on the Pill Furnace, gently stroking it from time to time and tapping it twice.

Everyone was confused. What on earth is Fang Lin up to? While Li Chong is halfway done, he hasn’t even lit the fire yet. Is he going to refine the pills or not?

Suddenly, Fang Lin slapped the Pill Furnace, and the cover immediately fell to one side.

Everyone’s spirits lifted, finally, Fang Lin was going to make a move.

But Fang Lin’s behavior in the next second left everyone dumbfounded.

They saw Fang Lin hurriedly throwing herbs into his Pill Furnace. In a short while, he threw all of the Bone Renewal Pill materials inside.

What is he trying to do? Without even lighting a fire, he dumped all the herbs in. Is he joking?

Even the elder of Li Family, who didn’t know much about Pill Refining, thought Fang Lin’s actions were ridiculous.

Not lighting the fire and tossing the herbs in first, is not the normal process of a Pill Refiner.

Ouyang Jing really wanted to tell Fang Lin that he should light the fire first. If the Pill Furnace was not heated, all the herbs would get burnt as soon as the fire was lit.

But Fang Lin seemed to have completely forgotten about lighting the fire. After throwing in the herbs, he turned his attention back to Li Chong.

Everyone was speechless. What on earth is Fang Lin planning?

Elder Su frowned, he did not believe that Fang Lin would do something meaningless. But even with his experience, he couldn’t fathom what Fang Lin was planning to do next.

“Almost there.” Fang Lin thought to himself, looking at the fiery scene unfolding at Li Chong’s work station.

Suddenly, Fang Lin gave his Pill Furnace a strong smack, and the antiquated and hefty Pill Furnace astonishingly rose into midair, spinning dizzily in the half-open space.

This immediate development caught everyone off guard; they quickly lifted their heads to observe the rotating Pill Furnace.

Among them, Li Chong, engrossed in his Pill Refining, also got startled, and nearly lost his concentration.

Li Chong hastily composed himself, and without regard to what Fang Lin was doing, he continued with his task at hand.

Though, the spinning Pill Furnace in the sky made Li Chong slightly anxious, not knowing what Fang Lin was planning despite having a vague feeling of unease.

After a moment, the Pill Furnace started descending, and Fang Lin took advantage of the momentum, leaped up and with a swift kick sent the Pill Furnace back up into the air again.

The Pill Furnace fell back down, Fang Lin gave it another kick, sending it back into its twirling course.

Fall, kick, spin…

Fall, kick, spin…

This repetition rendered the crowd’s expressions priceless.

What the hell is going on? Is this a jest? Are you, Fang Lin, actually messing with us? Or just fooling around with yourself?

What has this Pill Furnace ever done to you for you to treat it so? If you really can’t stand it, wouldn’t it be better to just smash it rather than kicking up and down?

Woosh… Woosh… Woosh… !!!

Finally, when a fury of wind surged forth, everyone was shocked—why on earth is there such a strong wind?

The next moment, everyone’s gaze fell upon the revolving Pill Furnace. A sudden realization emerged.

Elder Su seemed to comprehend something and turned his head sharply towards Li Chong.

He saw that the flames inside and outside Li Chong’s Pill Furnace, influenced by the violent wind, were drifting involuntarily towards Fang Lin’s Pill Furnace.

Not just a few tiny sparks, but wave after wave of fire were swept away by the wind.

Li Chong’s face changed dramatically, frantically trying to regain control of these flames.

However, to his horror, he discovered that his control over the flames had become incredibly weak, as a result of executing the Internal and External Fire Alchemy Skill and maintaining the Soul Commanding Pill Fire for an extended period.

Moreover, the wind was too forceful; the flames were utterly unrecoverable, directly coiled up and taken by Fang Lin’s Pill Furnace.

The momentum once set off, could no longer be stopped.

The remaining flames all flew up simultaneously, following the fierce wind, they became part of the flame in Fang Lin’s Pill Furnace.

All the flames originally under Li Chong’s control detached from him and became part of the fire helping Fang Lin refine his pill.

Bang!

The Pill Furnace finally landed, with towering flames. Fang Lin swung his hands down—Bang Bang Bang, three times!

Shaking Three Mountains!

After three noises, all the flames plunged into the Pill Furnace for the final calcination.

Li Chong stood there, gazing at the gleaming and incessantly shaking Pill Furnace in front of him. His body swayed and heaving heavily, he threw up a mouthful of fresh blood and fell backward to the ground..
