Chapter 279 Si Huo Doesn't Want Chu Miao's Pills
Chu Miao's appearance was so outrageous that no one could bear to look at her. Alchemists have always been a rare and sacred profession, yet Chu Miao acted like a country cook.
Xiao Lang cheered wildly for Chu Miao from below!
Master is the best!
Master is awesome!
Master Niu Bo Yi!
Yuan Aruo had already washed all the medicinal herbs and put them into the alchemy furnace.
She controlled the heat with her internal energy, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Even laymen know that the timing and temperature of the fire have a great influence on whether the alchemy can be successfully refined.
Every alchemist strives to precisely control the heat when refining pills, and dares not be distracted even for a moment.
Yuan Aruo was tense all over, throwing the medicinal herbs into the alchemy furnace while observing their dissolution and controlling the heat.
Everyone watching couldn't help but feel a chill for her.
On the other hand, look at Chu Miao's side.
She poured all the medicinal herbs into the iron pot at once.
Then put the lid back on.
She even brought over a recliner, holding a palm-leaf fan in her hand, and lay leisurely on the recliner, fanning herself with the fan occasionally.
It felt like I was about to fall asleep any second.
They didn't care at all about the condition of the medicinal herbs in the pot.
She didn't care whether the fire was big or not; her eyes were half-closed, and she looked extremely relaxed.
Everyone laughed.
This was the first time they had ever seen such a childish method of alchemy!
Yuan Aruo also glanced at Chu Miao, her brows furrowed.
She had never heard of such a method of alchemy before.
Chu Miao didn't even care about the temperature of the vaccine. Could it be that her alchemy skills have become so advanced that she can control the temperature so precisely?
Thinking of the pills Chu Miao had refined, Yuan Aruo felt a surge of panic.
If those pills were indeed refined by Chu Miao, then the pills she refined would probably not be as good as hers.
She glanced at Si Yelin and the others without making a sound, and seeing that his attention was not on her, she silently channeled the internal energy in her fingertips towards Chu Miao. Chu Miao was using a very basic iron pot, and with a jolt of internal energy, it would break!
That's what she was thinking too!
Can--
She was disappointed.
Before the internal force could even touch the iron pot, the wine cup was deflected back by an invisible barrier!
"boom!"
Yuan Aruo's right hand trembled violently!
She gripped her aching right hand and glanced at Chu Miao with apprehension and fear!
Chu Miao was still leisurely lying on the recliner, her eyes still half-closed, quite casual and nonchalant.
"I hate it when people can't beat others and resort to underhanded tricks. Don't try to play dirty tricks on me. I'll let you off this time since I'm still refining pills."
Her languid voice reached everyone's ears.
Yuan Aruo had acted very discreetly, and no one had noticed, so they were stunned when they heard Chu Miao's words.
What did Chu Miao mean by that?
Si Yelin's icy gaze swept over Yuan Aruo.
Yuan Aruo pursed her lips and remained silent.
He endured the numbness in his tiger's mouth and continued refining the elixir.
She was afraid that Si Yelin and the others would find out, so she didn't dare to do anything else and focused on refining pills.
Time passed second by second, and the faint fragrance of pills wafted from Yuan Aruo's alchemy furnace.
"It's done! It's done!"
"Miss Yuan's elixir is successfully refined!" everyone exclaimed excitedly!
Yuan Aruo also felt that the time was about right. She took a deep breath and opened the alchemy furnace.
The internal force supported the pills inside the alchemy furnace, causing them to rise slowly.
Exposed to the public eye.
"Two pills!"
Everyone gasped in surprise!
This time, Yuan Aruo actually managed to refine two pills!
"As expected of Miss Yuan! Two pills in one batch! There aren't many alchemists in the ancient martial arts world who can do that!"
"Miss Yuan is only twenty-five years old, and she's already so amazing!"
Yuan Aruo's eyes lit up; she never expected that she would actually refine two pills this time!
In the past, she would only make one pill per batch!
This time, there were actually two pills!
Yuan Aruo was overjoyed. No matter what, she had made progress. Even if her pills were not as good as Chu Miao's, she definitely outnumbered her!
With her newfound confidence and self-assurance, the way she looked at Chu Miao changed, and she raised her head higher.
Only Xiao Lang and Si Mu and Si Tu were present.
There was no expression at all.
One furnace yields two pills... Is that really so remarkable?
Having witnessed firsthand how extraordinary Chu Miao's alchemy skills were, it was difficult for them to show any emotion when they saw the two pills refined by Yuan Aruo.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to Chu Miao's large pot!
Chu Miao was still leisurely lying on the recliner, and from beginning to end, she didn't pay much attention to the big pot.
Everyone looked at her, but Chu Miao remained calm. After the last flame died down, she casually got up from the recliner, tilted her head, and then lifted the pot lid.
The pot lid was only so big; once it was lifted, everyone could see the pills inside.
"Four pills!"
Everyone opened their eyes in disbelief!
Chu Miao actually produced four pills!
She used the same medicinal herbs, yet she refined four pills!
It's twice as much as the pills Yuan Aruo refined!
How can it be!
They had never seen an alchemist who could produce four pills in one batch!
Yuan Aruo gritted her teeth. So what if she refined four pills? Refining pills isn't about who has the most.
It still depends on the quality of the elixir!
She couldn't smell the aroma of the pills in Chu Miao's pot at all; only extremely poor-quality pills would have no smell at all!
She just said it.
How could Chu Miao be that powerful?
Even a large pot can be used to refine elixirs.
Now Chu Miao is going to pay the price for her arrogance!
They were refining Marrow Cleansing Pills, which could help people cleanse their marrow and improve their cultivation.
The simplest way to determine whose elixir is better is to give it to someone directly.
Chu Miao gave four pills in total, and distributed them to Xiao Lang, Si Mu, and Si Tu.
Si Yelin doesn't need this thing.
There was only one pill left.
She looked at Si Huo: "Here's a pill for you. Do you want it? Impurities are accumulating in your body, causing your cultivation to stagnate. Taking this pill will benefit you."
Si Tu and Si Mu hurriedly asked Si Huo to take it, but Si Huo glanced at Yuan Aruo and shook his head.
"Thank you, Miss Chu, but I've decided to take Miss Yuan's pills."
He took the pill from Yuan Aruo, who smiled at him, and he smiled back, his eyes crinkling.
"Oh."
Chu Miao shrugged and didn't say anything.
"Is there anyone else who wants it?"
The people at the base looked at each other, unsure of Chu Miao's alchemy skills. Given that the pills Chu Miao had refined last time had nearly killed them, none of them dared to consume them lightly.
"Can...can I try?" A boy stepped forward.
She was thin and small, with timid eyes.
He was picked up by Si Yelin. His cultivation level was not high, and he did odd jobs at the base.
"of course can."
Chu Miao smiled and handed him the pill directly.
The boy accepted it as if it were a precious treasure.
