Chapter 94: Chapter 83: Mirror-Breaking Elixir, The Second Viscera Refinement of the Luo Family_2
“`
“Heh heh…”
Tang Qian smiled, picked up a cup of hot tea beside him, and drank it down in one gulp.
He silently glanced at Tang Huaiping next to him and said in a low voice, “The Luo Family lacks the ability, lacks the courage?”
“That may not necessarily be the case.”
“Ancestor, do you mean that the ones who acted against our Tang Family are from the Luo Family in Qingshi Town?”
“I never said that…”
Tang Qian shook his head and then added, “I’m just saying that the Luo Family might be the ones who acted against our Tang Family, not that they definitely are.”
Tang Huaiping asked, “Then Ancestor, which power do you think is most likely to act against our Tang Family?”
“Hard to say, hard to say…”
After thinking for a while, Tang Huaiping then asked, “Ancestor, what do you think our Tang Family should do next?”
Tang Qian slightly narrowed his eyes, smiled, and said, “One word, wait!”
“Wait?”
Upon hearing this word, Tang Huaiping couldn’t help but frown slightly.
A trace of confusion began to show on his face.
Seeing this, Tang Qian explained, “The current situation is already in our Tang Family’s favor.”
“The Da Feng Dynasty has suffered a severe drought for several years.”
“Countless people have been displaced, becoming refugees, claiming mountains as kings, turning to banditry.”
“And after a severe drought, there often comes a great disaster.”
“So, all our Tang Family needs to do next is silently wait for the opportunity.”
After some thought, Tang Huaiping once again inquired, “Opportunity? When will it come?”
Tang Qian silently stood up, his hands clasped behind his back.
He took a few steps out of the room and said softly, “Hard to say, hard to say…”
With those words, the white-haired ancestor of the Tang Family, Tang Qian,
abruptly disappeared from Tang Huaiping’s view.
Following this exchange with the ancestor,
Tang Huaiping’s mood seemed to have become much calmer.
His mind also became much clearer.
What the ancestor said indeed made some sense.
The current situation was already quite favorable for their Tang Family.
Even if the Tang Family did nothing but wait silently, they could easily rise above the other powers.
In that case, what was there for Tang Huaiping to hurry about?
When exactly would the opportunity the ancestor spoke of arrive?
This was something Tang Huaiping couldn’t quite understand.
…
As the Tang Family gradually returned to calm,
so did Huai Shui County, this vast land.
The various powers all chose to focus on their own development.
It seemed they had all realized that peaceful growth was better than meaningless strife.
Even within Huai Shui County,
the level of peace and tranquility had returned to the state before the chaotic times.
If it were not for the countless refugees still aimlessly wandering the land,
perhaps some would really believe that the chaos had passed.
…
Time always flies during peaceful development.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed.
In the Luo Family Ancestral Land in Qingshi Town,
within a courtyard emitting an aura of ancient simplicity,
Luo Changfeng was silently standing next to a Second-Hand Furnace Cauldron under which a blazing flame was burning intensely.
“Another failure?”
Luo Changfeng looked at the Furnace Cauldron, whose temperature seemed to be getting out of control,
and at the lid that was trembling slightly.
He couldn’t help but furrow his brow.
With this attempt included, the number of failures should have reached one hundred, right?
In recent days, he had been researching elixirs with extremely low or even no side effects, specifically for enhancing cultivation.
But whether it was due to a lack of talent or something else,
his attempts at Alchemy with the Second-Hand Furnace Cauldron had always ended in failure.
As the number of failures increased, Luo Changfeng’s emotions had become somewhat numb.
“Try again?”
Luo Changfeng waved his hand, dispelling the intense flames burning beneath the Second-Hand Furnace Cauldron.
Then, with his withered right hand, imbued with Qi-Blood Force,
he opened the extremely hot lid of the Furnace Cauldron.
[Boom!!!]
In an instant, a wave of scorching heat rushed towards him.
Fortunately, Luo Changfeng had prepared sufficiently,
so he wasn’t burned by the intense heat.
…
To continue Alchemy,
he needed to deal with the residue left over from the previous batch of elixirs.
Thankfully, this step wasn’t too troublesome.
A brief surge of Qi-Blood Force was all it took to clear the residue from the Furnace Cauldron.
After removing the residue and allowing the Furnace Cauldron to cool down,
the next step was to relight an intense flame beneath the Second-Hand Furnace Cauldron,
bringing it back up to temperature.
Once the Furnace Cauldron reached the heat required for Alchemy,
Luo Changfeng could then add the various precious herbs into the Second-Hand Furnace Cauldron, one by one.
…
Perhaps because he had failed a full one hundred times, or for some other reason,
this one hundred and first attempt at Alchemy
went surprisingly smooth for Luo Changfeng.
At this point, the precious herbs had all turned into a medicinal liquid.
The fusion of the liquids was exceptionally successful.
“Next, add more heat?”
As Luo Changfeng thought this to himself, he channeled the Qi-Blood Force within him into the fire beneath the Furnace Cauldron.
The flames, mixed with Qi-Blood Force, caused the temperature of the Furnace Cauldron to suddenly rise another level.
