At this moment, many alchemists would conduct a second refining of the pills they had just concocted, removing impurities to make the pills even more perfect.
This is actually a common technique among high-level alchemists and isn't something to be surprised about.
However, what shocked Ouyang Hongguang now was that Qin Chen's target for the second refinement was actually his Five-Color Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill.
Not all pills can undergo a second refinement; generally, only those with obvious defects can be simply repaired. Once a pill is formed, the difficulty of refining it again is extremely high.
It can be said that pills of the ninth grade and above are nearly impossible to refine a second time.
This is because ninth-grade pills represent the limit of pill refinement, making it hard for any clear defects to appear. If a ninth-grade pill can still be refined a second time, it can only be said that the ninth-grade pill was never successfully refined in the first place.
But now, Qin Chen was actually attempting a second refinement of the Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill, which was simply reckless.
The Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill itself is already a late ninth-grade pill. Moreover, although the Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill he had previously refined did not reach the high-quality seven colors, it had still attained the mid-quality five colors. Even the current master of the Alchemy Pavilion would struggle to refine such a pill a second time.
How could a little boy like Qin Chen, even if he was the heir of the Po Chen Martial Emperor, be capable of such abnormal feats?
However, the scene before him made Ouyang Hongguang's eyes widen in disbelief.
Boom! The deep blue flames spread out, and on the Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill within the furnace, strands of mottled airflow actually began to swirl. Ouyang Hongguang could tell at a glance that this was the residue of medicinal impurities remaining in the Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill.
But that wasn't all; the originally blooming five-colored Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill, under this renewed refining process, began to deepen its pill patterns, and more splendid brilliance started to emanate from the Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill, merging into the original five colors.
Finer and more intricate patterns began to appear on the pill.
"Hiss!"
Ouyang Hongguang's eyes nearly popped out, his body trembling uncontrollably, and he murmured: “How can this be possible?”
Although he was shocked inside, his gaze remained firmly fixed on Qin Chen’s actions. He saw that the deep blue flames continuously transformed their aura, eventually becoming slightly chilling.
Such a scorching flame could melt gold and iron, yet it felt somewhat cold—this was clearly a paradox, but it was vividly presented in Ouyang Hongguang's mind.
Yin Fire Technique?
Could this be the Yin Fire Technique?
Roar! Under the influence of this chilling aura, the scorching and cold powers intertwined, causing more pill patterns to suddenly reappear on the Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill. In an instant, the five-colored brilliance erupted like a magnificent rainbow, and seven-colored light surged forth.
Qin Chen waved his hand, dispersing the flame furnace formed by the Qinglian Demon Fire, and at once, a dragon's roar soared to the sky, and nine dragon lights swept through the refining room, filling it with a rich medicinal aura and unleashing unprecedented radiant brilliance.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The Celestial Dragon roared, nearly blasting the refining room apart, and the terrifying aura wildly swept through the Ouyang family’s residence, shaking the earth.
In the end, the seven-colored rainbow light, like a rainbow, converged into nine dazzling pills, which once again fell into Qin Chen's hands.
"Ouyang Hongguang Master, please take a look."
Qin Chen smiled as he handed the second-refined Celestial Dragon Ascension Pill to Ouyang Hongguang.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Ouyang Hongguang's heart raced wildly as he cautiously took the nine pills. The next moment, his eyes widened in shock, his excited body trembling, and tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
