Chapter 131: Chapter 131: Making Ice Dew Pill

Translator: 549690339

The pill furnace gifted by Han Yinyue was an unexpected joy for Fang Lin, as he had never mentioned the need for one to Yinyue.

However, since it was offered to him, it would be inappropriate to say no. Therefore, Fang Lin accepted it graciously.

Fang Lin found this pill furnace sent by Han Yinyue to be quite impressive. It was a notch above the Golden Flame Cauldron he was currently using. In the courtyard, a blue Four-Sided Square Ding stood tall. That was the pill furnace sent by Han Yinyue.

Typically, pill furnaces are rounded, but this one was a square ding; quite a rare type.

Of course, for Fang Lin, be it a round or square ding, as long as it could refine pills, it was good enough.

In many cases, a square ding was even more convenient compared to a round ding, but there were also times when a square ding fell short to a round one.

For example, when using the technique 'Shaking Three Mountains' with a square ding, it's impossible.

As for the reasons, the square shape of the ding wouldn't allow it to generate sufficient vibration, making the effect of 'Shaking Three Mountains' minimal.

Having promised Han Yinyue to produce the Ice Dew Pills as soon as possible, Fang Lin didn't delay. In the afternoon, after receiving the materials and the pill furnace, he began the process of pill refining.

During the refining process, Fang gave permission to Dugu Nian to observe. This made Dugu Nian extremely delighted.

However, Fang Lin warned Dugu Nian that if she disturbed him during his refining, he would throw her out.

Dugu Nian nodded repeatedly, guaranteeing she wouldn't cause any trouble.

After closing the courtyard gate, Fang Lin slapped the Four-footed square ding, and suddenly a flame began to blaze beneath the furnace.

“The fire is quite impressive,” Dugu Nian remarked, causing Fang Lin to roll his eyes at her.

Dugu Nian stuck out her tongue, immediately choosing to remain silent.

After heating the furnace, Fang Lin calmly tossed in herbs one by one. During the process, Dugu Nian fixed her gaze on him, not wishing to miss out on any crucial steps.

In fact, Dugu Nian was skeptical about Fang Lin's ability to make the Ice Dew pill. The Ice Dew pill was a Grade 2 pill, quite uncommon. Even an average Second Cauldron Pill Refiner might not know what the Ice Dew Pill was.

As for Fang Lin, Dugu Nian believed he had the skills of a One Cauldron Pill Refiner. However, making a Grade 2 pill, especially a rare one, even if he knew the pill formula, it would be practically impossible to succeed at the first attempt.

According to Dugu Nian, Fang Lin would fail three or five times before successfully creating the Ice Dew pill.

Moreover, Dugu Nian was aware that the Four-footed square ding was not suitable for using the 'Shaking Three Mountains' technique. Without that technique, Fang Lin didn't seem that impressive.

Therefore, Dugu Nian insisted on watching Fang Lin refine the pill as she looked forward to seeing him embarrass himself.

However, seeing Fang Lin's confident demeanor, Dugu Nian felt uncertain whether he was truly composed or simply bluffing.

In a blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Over these three days, Fang Lin and Dugu Nian never stepped out of the courtyard. Dugu Nian didn't see Fang Lin make any mistakes. Each step was perfection itself, flawless.

Dugu Nian was reluctant to admit it, but if roles were switched, and she was Fang Lin, she might not even be able to reach his level of perfection.

Watching Fang Lin refine pills ended up being an enjoyable experience for

Dugu Nian.

Yes, enjoyable!

Dugu Nian wasn't sure why she felt this way. The sight of Fang Lin refining pills was so captivating, filled with aesthetic appeal.

On the fifth day, boiling noises started coming from the furnace, as if something inside was banging around.

Dugu Nian perked up immediately, looking at Fang Lin with a mocking gaze.

As a genius pill refiner, Dugu Nian knew this was the critical moment in refining. Although the pills had not yet taken shape, they had started showing the tendency of forming.

If one didn't have good control at this stage, it could mean total failure.

This was the stage that tested the capabilities of a pill refiner the most.

Dugu Nian was eagerly waiting for Fang Lin to make a mistake so she could mock him.

After all, she couldn't beat Fang Lin in a fight, nor was she a match for him in pill refining. She could only find solace in this.

Unfortunately to her disappointment, Fang Lin didn't make any mistakes.

Fang Lin simply intensified the flames, which instantly blazed wildly, almost engulfing the Four-footed square ding.

Dugu Nian was taken aback. With such a large fire, wouldn't it destroy the pill in the furnace?

However, Fang Lin remained calm. The raging flames lasted for about the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, then reduced to a few tiny sparks.

This fluctuation of fire left Dugu Nian confused. Although Fang's action didn't make sense to her, she knew he had his reasons.

Two more days passed. There was now a refreshing scent of pills emanating from the furnace, spreading throughout the courtyard.

Dugu Nian wore a sulky expression. She knew that her wish to see Fang Lin fail was not going to come true. By this point, the pills were basically formed. Even a mediocre pill refiner wouldn't fail at this stage unless they make a significant mistake.

Would Fang Lin make such a significant mistake?

Fang Lin yawned. These days of guarding the furnace and refining were quite exhausting.

Looking at the sulky Dugu Nian sitting beside him, an idea came to Fang Lin's mind. “Disciple, how about I give you a chance to practice?” he suddenly proposed.

Dugu Nian looked at Fang Lin sideways and grumpily said, “Can't you speak normally?”

Fang Lin responded slowly and with an old -fashioned air, “Since I've taught you 'Shaking Three Mountains', you are my disciple. Or perhaps you intend to disrespect one's tutor and destroy one's moral integrity?”

Dugu Nian didn't want to argue over any of this. She directly asked, “You just mentioned giving me practice? Practice what?”

Fang Lin pointed at the furnace in front of him: “The last stage of refining the Ice Dew pill, let's let you do it.”

Upon hearing Fang Lin's words, Dugu Nian's eyes grew wide, and she immediately looked excited.

“Alright!” She quickly moved to the furnace and started vigilantly looking after it.

Fang Lin didn't say anything more. Instead, he lay down on the bamboo chair, leisurely taking a nap.

Dugu Nian was sweating heavily. This was her first time refining a Grade 2 pill. Although the Ice Dew pill had been almost complete by Fang Lin, the final step wasn't simple, at least for a One Cauldron Pill Refiner like Dugu Nian.

Fortunately, the final step went without any issues. All Dugu Nian had to do was carefully watch over the furnace.

After another day, the pills came out of the furnace. Four Ice Dew pills, each emitting a green glow and a wave of icy chill.

Fang Lin stored the Ice Dew pills properly, waiting for Han Yinyue to come and collect them.

“Is Brother Fang here?” As soon as Fang Lin had put the Ice Dew pills away, a man's voice could be heard from outside the house.

Fang Lin recognized that it was not a familiar voice.

“GO, open the door.” Fang Lin waved his nana, Instructing Dugu Nian to go and open the door..
