Martial Peak

Chapter 622

It was quite some time before Yang Kai began his second attempt.

Due to his previous failure, the Spirit Array Yang Kai had drawn on the inside of the pill furnace had also been destroyed, so he first had to re-draw it.

Meticulously using his True Qi he once again engraved the pill furnace with his desired Spirit Array.

However, this time he did not succeed so easily. Due to a slight bit of carelessness, one of the True Qi lines Yang Kai drew when portraying the Spirit Array was distorted, causing the half-completed Spirit Array to burst.

Inside the pill furnace, a burst of chaotic energy quickly erupted and blasted out like a wild bucking horse.

Yang Kai suddenly felt a throbbing headache, quickly realize that understanding the theory behind Alchemy and actually using it were completely different matters.

Having understood this point, Yang Kai also realized just how envious Little Senior Sister’s aptitude was. With her Sacred Spirit Medicine Body, she was naturally talented in all things related to Alchemy. Any amount of herbs she touched could be perfectly refined and combined just by waving her hands.

After three consecutive failures, Yang Kai finally managed to engrave a stable Spirit Array inside the pill furnace.

Because of the nature of these Spirit Arrays, one needed to dedicate all their attention while portraying it as it had to be done in one complete motion. If there were any mistakes or deficiencies during this process, the Spirit Array would instantly collapse.

This task was quite draining on one’s True Qi and nerves.

Only a complete Spirit Array with no flaws would be of any use during Alchemy.

It was easy to say, but when one tried to do it, they would quickly come across a number of difficulties, and becoming impatient or impulse would only compound these problems. Fortunately, Yang Kai’s will was firm and demeanor resolute; he would not be discouraged by one or two failures.

To him, every failure only added to his experience.

When the Spirit Array stabilized, Yang Kai once again placed the herbs into the pill furnace in order and then began pouring his True Qi into it. The herbs were quickly refined into medicinal liquids and began blending together.

Various medicinal essences emerged and began amalgamating, each one having its own unique properties that when combined led to new effects.

This time, Yang Kai controlled his True Qi even more carefully, but he still ultimately failed.

While he was attempting to remove the impurities from the herbs and condense them into pure medicinal liquids, there was a sudden explosion inside his pill furnace and a familiar burnt smell once again permeated the room.

Sitting in the same spot, unmoving, Yang Kai quietly reflected on this latest failure for a while before returning to his senses.

Adjusting his mood and returning himself to his peak condition, he started again.

Failure, failure…

Failing over and over again would normally cause one to feel a sense of helplessness, but Yang Kai maintained his calm, repeatedly dumping the refuse materials from his pill furnace, pondering over where he went wrong, and then trying again.

He knew that every time he failed, he would make some progress.
