BXBX NOVEL Chapter 79: Quenching Fire Pill 1
79 Quenching Fire Pill 1
After a week, he then prepared the ingredients used in Quenching Fire Pill. Of course, he asked his teacher since the one who gathered them all was his teacher. He only has the last ingredient for the pill.
"Teacher" He went to the dean\'s office to ask them.
"What is it? do you want to make the pill now?"
Alex nodded, Then the dean pointed out to a box "The ingredients were in there"
Alex\'s eyes widened, His teacher seems expecting he come and ask for them. "Thank you Teacher"
As he said that, he grabbed the ingredients and went toward the courtyard. The dean was confused by this. After all, Alex usually used his workshop to make pills. But this time Alex went toward his courtyard.
"This cauldron..." The dean was astonished after noticing Alex\'s new cauldron. The cauldron was red in color, with a blazing aura surrounding it and there is a dragon pattern on its body.
"Teacher...this cauldron is..." Alex forget about this. Will his teacher suspect this new cauldron of his? After all, usually he was the one who made the cauldron for Alex and his use.
"This cauldron is very good" The dean finished his words and nodded.
Alex becomes awkward, as he prepared himself to told him, he was stopped. "Teacher, this cauldron..."
The dean stopped him, "It\'s alright, you don\'t need to explain. I only need to know that this cauldron belonged to you, MY STUDENT. That\'s all"
"Teacher..." Alex was moved. The dean has complete trust in Alex.
"Let\'s continue" The dean said.
Alex nodded, he brought all the ingredients together. There are a total of 8 ingredients including his Fire Miletonia Herb. Alex closed his eyes and focused his mind on this moment.
A pure red-colored flame appeared surrounding his body. The flame gushing out from his body continuously and brighten up the courtyard. This is a new technique that he learned from the Intermediate Alchemy Technique.
Alex slowly opened his eyes. His expression was serious as he eyed the rising red flame. Due to the quality of his new cauldron, Flaming Dragon Cauldron. It seems that his flame was enchanted by the cauldron and start rising. Though Alex was surprised by this, he can\'t be bothered by this at this moment. This is the power of the Super Rank item from the system. He started warming up the cauldron, this initial step required only for a few seconds. This was caused by the power of the Flaming Dragon Cauldron, as soon as Alex\'s flame make a contact with the cauldron, the cauldron enhanced Alex\'s flame.
Seeing the Cauldron warmed enough. Alex waved his hand at the few medicinal ingredients on the ground in front of him. Alex used his mana to grabbed the ingredients. Immediately, the red-colored \'Fire Miletonia Herb\' slowly flew up and was finally thrown into the medicinal cauldron. The moment the \'Fire Miletonia Herb\' entered the medicinal cauldron, the dense red-colored flame, and the medicinal cauldron swallow it like a hungry wolf...no, a hungry dragon. After all, the name of the medicinal cauldron is Flaming Dragon Cauldron.
Now, he saw the dragon pattern facing the top of the cauldron. It was like a dragon that swallowing the medicinal cauldron. Coupled with the fire enhancement of this medicinal cauldron. Maybe that\'s why this medicinal cauldron named with Flaming Dragon Cauldron. After the \'Fire Miletonia Herb\' got inside of the cauldron. In an instant, the herb began to swiftly wither.
The dean\'s eyes stared intently at the process. This was a new process for him. He also never saw Alex did this before. His thinking was true after all these techniques that Alex used now were from the Intermediate Alchemy Technique. He stared intently at the interior of the medicinal cauldron. Although the flame within the cauldron was blazing, with his power he was able to sense that the temperature of the flame had been controlled fully by Alex.
Therefore, this tyrannical flame may have appeared like a blazing dragon that engulfing everything with its blazing flame, but it didn\'t incinerate the \'Fire Miletonia Herb\' until it turned into ashes. Instead, the Fire Miletonia Herb slowly turned into red colored liquid droplets.
"This..." The dean was very astonished until he can\'t even speak. He continued to quietly watch Alex. He usually completely burned the medicinal ingredients when he was refining medicinal ingredients. This could not be attributed to the ferocity of the flame. it could only be said that his degree of control of the flame had yet to truly reach the pinnacle. But he was confused, he practiced his control of flame for a few decades. But was it really surpassed by Alex with only a year of training? Is this really not contributed to the ferocity of the flame but its control? What he didn\'t know was Alex completely trained in a different way of control from him. The Alchemy guide about flame control was a totally different way.
The alchemy guide from the system was very easy to train. The alchemy guide can be described as a teacher that teaching with an \'easy to understand\' way. While the dean practicing the way of \'1+1=3\'. It\'s not even correct, that\'s why the progress was so-so and Alex can beat him for only a year of practice. Though the flame was also a factor, the most important factor was flame control. Alex\'s way was a straight line and the dean\'s way was straight, curve, turn, slope, etc but it\'s not definitely lead you to the finish.
A red-colored liquid droplet was stored inside of the blazing medicinal cauldron. The energy contained within the liquid was so large that it left one speechless. This is the true medicinal refining. No loss in energy when refining. If Alex used his previous flame control, this rank 5 herb energy might only retain half of its previous energy.
After refining the Fire Miletonia Herb into liquid. Alex started to add a bit of mana. As soon as he added the mana, there is a light gray vapor that started to leave the liquid. This light gray vapor was the impurities. Alex used to expel the impurities but not in this way. Usually, he expelled them using his element, but this time, he expelled the impurities using his flame control. Merging with his element, the process went very smoothly. The light gray vapor gradually left the liquid. Soon enough the vapor was nowhere to be seen, the expelling impurities process had ended. This process took a few minutes. After seeing the complete liquid. Alex covered the liquid droplet using his fire and let it float near his body as he prepared to refine the second ingredients.
After Alex saw the complete liquid of Fire Miletonia Herb, he secretly relaxed. That means his new technique is a success. He then refined the second medicinal ingredient. He tossed \'Celestial Wood\' to the cauldron. The refinement of the Celestial Wood was not any easier than that of the Fire Miletonia Herb or even higher. Due to the previous refinement, the time needed to refine this Celestial Wood was longer.
As soon as the refinement of Celestial Wood finished, he immediately tossed the third ingredient, Star Root. The process took almost the same time as Celestial Wood. Without stopping, Alex continued the refinement of the fourth, fifth, six, and seven. The process took over an hour. Now is the last ingredients, Rank 6 Monster Core. Alex tossed the rank 6 monster core. The energy from the monster was the highest from the rest of the medicinal ingredients. Unlike the other medicinal ingredients, Alex didn\'t need to expel the impurities in this core.
This refinement took the longest time, even though Alex didn\'t need to expel the impurities. For this refinement, he needed to assimilate the energy within the core to the rest of the ingredients. He tossed all of the ingredients into the cauldron. The energy within the core gradually assimilated with the rest of the ingredients. After about half an hour, all of the ingredients started to merge.
The merging process not as usual. This time, the merging process was very slow. The ingredients slowly fusing with each other and the pill started to form. When the pill started to form, the pill size was around a tennis ball, Alex then separated them into two. But he felt this size was still too big. He then cut them again into two. Now, there are four pills that started to form. Soon the energy started to fluctuate, the pill almost finished. ?A bright glow was emitted from within it as the light gradually dimmed down and disappear.

Alex sighed in relieve. This is a new experience for him. Though the process took longer than his usual way but using this technique, he increased the success rate. This is the most important thing after all. Fast refining? Peak Grade? What uses all of that if he didn\'t even succeed in making the pill. Especially, the higher the rank, the higher the rarity of the medicinal ingredients.
Alex checked the pills with the system.
[Updating]
Alex was surprised to see this notification. He never thought that the system will update at this moment. The update took only a few seconds.
[Update Complete]
[Congratulations Host for learning the true way of Alchemy. This was only a content update]
[Peak Quality Quenching Fire Pill (Rank 2)
Use: Refining the fire element in the user body
Limit: 1]
"Peak Quality? Rank 2? I know what rank 2 means but what is this peak quality? Isn\'t it peak grade?"
[Quality is the same with Grade. But the one that universally used was \'Quality\'. Host didn\'t need to worry about it, only the naming was different not the meaning]
"Then, why is the previous one using \'Grade\' ?"
[It\'s only for a newbie. After all, Host only learned the basics of alchemy and recklessly forming the pill. But the Intermediate Alchemy Technique teaches Host the detailed way of Alchemy. If Host used the previous technique in high-rank material. The success rate will be very low]
"... I will continue practicing this technique" The he looked toward the stupified dean. He now confused about how to explain all of this. He sighed, "Whatever, I will just explain all of it"
"And now, there are four pills. I will take one, then I will give the rest. The question is who will be the one...hmm... I will give the pill to Firia, teacher, and... Oh right, Elder Sister Mia needs it too. Yep, I will give it to her" Alex nodded. After he becomes Alicia\'s boyfriend, the relationship with the rest of the family also becomes better. He called Mia with \'Elder Sister\'. But there is one miscalculation. He forgot about Sherry.
