CHAPTER 920: CHAPTER 920: REFINING HEAVENLY PILLS

"Refined into Heavenly Pill?"

Upon hearing Zhu Fei’s words, Fatty Pang was briefly taken aback, but he quickly comprehended and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I trust you! Of course, I trust you!"

Saying so, Fatty Pang took out a storage ring from himself and handed it to Zhu Fei expectantly:

"Brother Zhu, I must rely on you for alchemy. I don’t ask for much; if you succeed, no matter the quality, just give me one."

Zhu Fei was truly surprised by how straightforwardly Fatty Pang accepted his proposal.

Without hesitation, Zhu Fei took the ring from Fatty Pang, smiled, and nodded:

"Don’t worry, Brother Pang, I can’t promise much, but I can guarantee over half of the Heavenly Pills."

Zhu Fei wouldn’t deceive him about the pill issue, especially not after Fatty Pang’s attitude.

After some more casual chat, Zhu Fei temporarily bid farewell to Fatty Pang and Chen Tianxing, heading straight back to the room he previously occupied.

Back in his room, Zhu Fei first laid down a layer of prohibition around him.

It’s not that he didn’t trust Fatty Pang and Chen Tianxing, but refining Heavenly Pills requires an absolutely quiet environment, unlike refining Star Origin Pill-type pills.

Should anything unexpected arise outside and affect the pill refining process, the batch of materials for Heavenly Pills would be wasted.

Refining materials for Heavenly Pills are much more valuable than ordinary alchemy materials; even with Zhu Fei’s current wealth, if ruined, he’d be truly pained.

"Sizzle—"

After setting the prohibition, Zhu Fei immediately took out the Pill Furnace and summoned the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire.

As he threw one herb after another into the Pill Furnace, they quickly melted under the fire, transforming into droplets of crystalline medicine liquid.

As the medicine liquid rolled, Zhu Fei suddenly shot out a purple liquid from his hand.

Once this purple liquid entered the Pill Furnace and was absorbed by the medicine liquid, the previously slightly repelling liquids immediately stabilized.

Hmm, the Purple Dark Spirit Liquid indeed proves useful; with this, the Heavenly Pill’s quality should not disappoint.

Indeed, what Zhu Fei just added to the Pill Furnace was Purple Dark Spirit Liquid!

In his first attempt at refining the Immortal Ascension Pill, Zhu Fei used Purple Dark Spirit Liquid.

Because of this, the refining succeeded and attained notable quality.

Now, Zhu Fei tried incorporating Purple Dark Spirit Liquid into the Heavenly Pill refining, partly to ensure pill quality and partly to observe its effects on second-grade Immortal Pill refining.

It seems Zhu Fei’s attempt this time was very successful.

Because twelve special-grade Heavenly Pills were already rolling inside the Pill Furnace.

A fragrance almost becoming tangible drifted from the Pill Furnace.

"Collect!"

Zhu Fei performed the final Pill Collection Skill, and instantly, the twelve special-grade Heavenly Pills lined up and flew into a pre-prepared Jade Bottle.

Having stored the Jade Bottle, Zhu Fei wasted no time in removing the prohibition and immediately headed out the door.

"Zhu... Brother Zhu, you came out?"

Just as Zhu Fei stepped outside, Fatty Pang came rushing up.

However, his face showed a hint of disappointment.

In Fatty Pang’s eyes, Zhu Fei had refined pills for such a short time—probably less than two hours—suggesting the pills failed.

Despite his previous nonchalance about Zhu Fei’s success in refining Heavenly Pills, only Fatty Pang knew his deep desire for one.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed to Zhu Fei’s initial proposal of providing the booth and cave for them.

Though Fatty Pang felt disappointed, he didn’t let it show and forced a smile:

"Brother Zhu, it’s okay; even if we failed this time, we’ll have more chances. You don’t need to worry about it."

Upon hearing Fatty Pang’s words and seeing his expression, Zhu Fei immediately understood his thoughts, amusingly.

But instead of explaining right away, Zhu Fei simply took out a Jade Bottle from himself and tossed it to Fatty Pang, saying:

"Brother Pang, why don’t you take a look first?"

"Uh?"

Startled, Fatty Pang quickly caught the tossed Jade Bottle.

However, soon his eyes widened upon seeing the contents inside.

"Brother Zhu, these pills are...? Heavenly Pills! No way! They’re all special-grade!"

For a moment, Fatty Pang’s hand holding the bottle trembled slightly, his face full of astonishment and joy.

"Hehe, so, Brother Pang, do these pills satisfy you?"

Seeing Fatty Pang’s current look, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but smile.

"Satisfied, of course, satisfied! Brother Zhu, I never imagined your pill cultivation has reached this level; you mustn’t be far from being a third-grade Immortal Alchemist!"

Fatty Pang nodded continuously and finally reacted, quickly extracting one Heavenly Pill and returning the entire Jade Bottle to Zhu Fei.

Zhu Fei furrowed his brows slightly, feigning displeasure, "Brother Pang, what do you mean? We agreed to share the pills equally; no need for this, right?"

As he spoke, Zhu Fei attempted to push the Jade Bottle back, but Fatty Pang stopped him.

Fatty Pang’s face turned serious as he spoke firmly, "Brother Zhu, I was rash earlier; I didn’t anticipate you’d refine special-grade Heavenly Pills. Let’s forget about the equal share; otherwise, I won’t feel comfortable."

Seeing Fatty Pang’s insistence, Zhu Fei was at a loss.

He had heard of people fighting for pills but never someone refusing special-grade pills.

Without further ado, he extracted three pills from the bottle, put them into another Jade Bottle, and handed it to Fatty Pang:

"All right, Brother Pang, you must take these three Heavenly Pills; you won’t deny me this, will you?"
