Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Chapter 138: Concentrate and Protect the Heart! The Storm is Coming! _1

Su Changkong thus spoke, “Second Miss, summoning me late at night, is there a task you need to assign to me?”

Sikong Huang nodded, and she didn’t beat around the bush, directly making her request, “Master Su, I would like to ask you to help me with Alchemy.”

This left Su Changkong somewhat surprised, is it just this matter?

Su Changkong was now the Alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang; when others sought him for pill refining, he would not refuse. If Sikong Huang wanted his help with alchemy, she could just have the ingredients brought to the Pill Refining Room, so why call him over in the middle of the night?

“Is there… anything I should pay attention to in this matter?”

Su Changkong asked, knowing that Sikong Huang’s request for his help with alchemy wouldn’t be a simple one; there must be a key issue.

Sikong Huang’s expression became slightly stern as she said, “The Pill Medicine I need you to refine is of great difficulty, are you confident? There are only three sets of ingredients.”

“Second Miss, I don’t even know what Pill Medicine I will be refining, I can’t assure you of success. It might succeed, or it might fail; I can only promise to do my best.”

Su Changkong did not make any guarantees; he made it clear that he could only do his best and not assure that the Pill Medicine Sikong Huang needed would be refined successfully.

Upon hearing this, Sikong Huang also gave a rueful smile, self-mocking. She had sought Gong Zheng’s help with Alchemy before and had forgotten this point; for Alchemists, refining a pill they were skilled in had a higher success rate, while for a pill they had never refined before, it would be normal to fail multiple times, even ten times.

“Here is the Pill Recipe, please look it over, Master Su.”

Sikong Huang took out a Pill Recipe, and with a flick of her pale palm, the recipe was seemingly supported by an invisible force, floating unhurriedly towards Su Changkong.

“This Sikong Huang’s Martial Arts Cultivation is quite profound!” This scene inwardly shocked Su Changkong.

But that was to be expected; Sikong Huang, being Sikong Yong’s daughter, had access to the resources of the Giant Whale Gang for cultivation, along with the practice of profound Martial Skills and Techniques and her own talent; it was impossible for her to be weak!

Su Changkong reached out to catch the flying Pill Recipe and started to read it.

“Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill.”

The Pill Recipe detailed the method of preparing a Pill Medicine named Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill.

“Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill, fortifies the spirit and calms the Qi, a high-level Pill Medicine used for healing wounds. Even if one suffers severe injuries, as long as they draw breath, it can halt the worsening of wounds and gradually restore them.”

Su Changkong carefully inspected the recipe and found that the Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill was a healing Pill Medicine.

“Could it be that someone has sustained severe injuries and requires this Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill?” Su Changkong guessed internally, though of course, it could also be that the person wanted to have a few pills on hand for unforeseen emergencies.

“How does it look, Master Su?” Sikong Huang asked.

“The difficulty of refining the Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill is very high, and I have not refined it before; moreover, there are only three sets of ingredients… I cannot guarantee success.”

Su Changkong spoke truthfully; his Alchemy had nearly reached the 5th realm, not much inferior to Gong Zheng, but he couldn’t guarantee the success of producing the Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill in three attempts.

“It’s a pity… Master Gong experienced an accident,” and Sikong Huang sighed inwardly. She had no other options; in the Giant Whale Gang, the most brilliant at Alchemy was none other than Master Su. Although she didn’t know much about Su Changkong, she had to choose to trust him.

Then Sikong Huang said, “Master Su, you just go ahead with the refining, and even if all fail, I won’t blame you.”

“Given so, then I can be at ease,” Su Changkong replied with a nod after receiving Sikong Huang’s promise.

If he failed to produce the Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill all three times, and Sikong Huang blamed him for it, he would not be willing to undertake this task.

“Follow me, this place has a Pill Furnace and all the materials required for Alchemy; you will refine here,” Sikong Huang stood up, heading towards a secret room within the grand hall.

Following her, Su Changkong observed Sikong Huang’s graceful figure from behind, his thoughts swirling. Sikong Huang’s late-night request for the refining of the Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill and wanting it done in her private domain indicated she might not want others to know of this matter!

In a secret room within the grand hall, as Sikong Huang had mentioned, all the tools for Alchemy and the necessary ingredients were already prepared.

“I will wait outside; should you need anything, call for me immediately,” Sikong Huang did not disturb Su Changkong. To avoid distracting him, she left him alone in the secret room and stood guard outside.

“This Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill seems very important to her; could it be someone is injured and they do not wish others to know?”

Su Changkong could not help but speculate, but soon he shook his head; these matters were not his concern. His responsibility was to focus on Alchemy and do it well!

Without delay, Su Changkong began to process the ingredients, preparing for the Alchemy. The difficulty of refining the Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill was even higher than that of the Qi-Blood Pill, with only three sets of ingredients; Su Changkong had to concentrate fully and give it his all!

Time passed, and quickly the wee hours of the morning arrived, with the flames in the Pill Furnace burning incessantly.

“Boom!”

A faint explosion echoed from within the Pill Furnace, and a burnt scent drifted from the exhaust of the Pill Furnace.

“Failed… ” As expected, the first batch of Pill Medicine had failed.

Su Changkong had never refined a Condensing Spirit Protecting Heart Pill before, and it was normal for the lack of proficiency to lead to failure.

“Failed, has it?” At the doorway of the secret room, Sikong Huang approached upon hearing the noise, a faint look of disappointment on her face. But she consoled Su Changkong, “It’s not a big deal, there are still two sets of ingredients left. Master Su, it’s almost dawn, go back and rest. Come over again tomorrow night to continue with the Alchemy.”
