Chapter 32 Inventory

  Although two days is a short time, Jiang Hao still had a good sleep. It's really true that sleeping can refresh one's mind and make everything feel better!

  Jiang Hao, who had just woken up from his sleep, stretched his waist vigorously, and with a crackling sound, the energy in his bones drove away his fatigue once again, and his entire being was at its peak.

  It's not that Jiang Huan woke up, but rather the aroma awakened his appetite. In front of him was a can of rich and savory meat soup, and several fresh purple fruits, which made one's mouth water just by looking at them.

  Jiang Huan looked up and glanced at Xie Tian, who was resting with his eyes closed in the distance. For no reason, he felt a pang of sadness in his heart again. However, when the words reached his lips, Jiang Huan held back, and what emerged from his eyes instead were even more determination and stubbornness. He picked up the meat soup and started drinking it in big gulps, feeling the hot broth warm his belly as he ate several slightly sour but very fragrant fruits. His abdomen was already unusually warm, and his meridians seemed to have been nourished, greedily absorbing the battle energy in the air.

  At the age of seven, Jiang Hao's meridians have already surpassed those of his peers, allowing him to withstand more battle Qi. Although he was malnourished from a young age, since following Yi Tian, little Jiang Hao's skeletal development has not fallen behind, and now one can clearly see the muscles bulging on his calves and arms, much more robust than before. It must be said that Yi Tian's training brought Jiang Hao immense challenges, but also gradually revealed its benefits.

  Having eaten his fill, Jiang Hao sat down on the spot and began to breathe in and out. Nowadays, Jiang Hao had gradually developed a habit of cultivating before and after refining pills. This not only allowed him to temper his spiritual energy but also ensured that his martial arts training did not fall behind. Of course, what Jiang Hao didn't know was that there were many people on this continent who cultivated both spiritual energy and martial arts, but most of them were mediocre. After all, whether it was martial arts or spiritual energy, reaching the peak required effort and luck. Therefore, those who dominated the world today were either solely cultivating martial arts or spiritual energy.

  Both hands are withdrawn, and the surging battle energy runs through the six major acupoints for three large cycles before returning to the Dan Tian. The battle energy inside the Dan Tian has unknowingly condensed a few more points.

  From the spatial chain, a black cauldron was summoned, and with a "clang", it landed in front of him. Jiang Huan's hands directly inputted a pale yellow flame, and within the flames, faintly visible were threads like black silk.

  With one breath, Jiang Heng took out all the medicinal powder obtained from the second condensation and placed it beside him. Next, he planned to refine them into Gathering Qi Pills. In this demon beast mountain range, having some stockpiled goods was always beneficial.

  A clear image of the Jiqi Dan's prescription emerged in his mind, and after the first success, Jiang Huan had a deeper understanding of this prescription, with every detail vividly present.

  Feeling the temperature transmitted by the black tripod, Jiang Huan simultaneously poured two kinds of medicinal powder into the tripod, then closed his eyes slightly, and completely released his spiritual power, slowly controlling the two clusters of medicinal powder to start merging.

  "Plop!" A dull sound, and some grayish-red residue fell out from the bottom of the Dan Ding.

  "Ah, failed." Jiang Huan opened his eyes, took a glance at the suspended Xue Tian, and curled his lips. "Tsk, can't be distracted next time."

  Another dose of medicine powder was taken out and thrown into the cauldron, and the fusion began again.

  "Hmmph!"

  "Damn it, failed again, let's try once more!"

  "Pffft!" "Pffft!" ... "Pffft!"

  "My god, how did it explode again? What's wrong with it? The temperature was right too. So how did I succeed the first time?! This is ridiculous! Is it because heaven is jealous of talented people and intentionally messing with me?" Seven consecutive failures later, Jiang Huan looked at the small pile of medicinal dregs at the bottom of the crucible, speechless, and couldn't help but curse again.

  This time, Jiang Hao didn't rush to merge them, but instead used his spiritual power to wrap around the medicinal powder, making them close together. As they merged, he fully dispersed his spiritual power into the medicinal powder, quietly sensing the contact between the two types of medicinal powder.

  In the distance, Tianyi narrowed his eyes and glanced at Jiang Huan, but didn't say a word. Every Dan master has their own style, some things need to be understood by oneself. As the saying goes, "the master leads you into the door, but cultivation is up to the individual". No matter how excellent the teacher is, if the disciple doesn't have talent, everything is in vain.

  "Boom!" Another muffled sound.

  However, this time Jiang Hao didn't scold, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, it turned out that the temperature was still playing tricks.

  Jiang Huan took out another packet of medicinal powder, and with a slight wave of his hands, the powder was enveloped in flames, beginning its ninth fusion. As the powder started to melt, Jiang Huan controlled his spiritual energy to slowly lower the temperature inside the powder, while keeping the external temperature unchanged. Indeed, under the influence of his spiritual energy, this fusion turned out to be surprisingly successful. Before long, a faint fragrance of elixir wafted out.

  After several hours, the second Gathering Qi Pill had quietly lain in the jade bottle.

  Jiang Heng immediately restored his battle spirit and spiritual energy on the spot, preparing to continue refining the elixir.

  ······

  In the mountain valley, weeds grew thickly, a gentle breeze blew by, and a black figure slowly appeared on top of an ancient tree that pierced the sky. Upon closer inspection, it was Jiang Hao.

  After several months of uninterrupted alchemy, Jiang Huan can now be said to have reached the threshold of a mortal dan master. In the quiet jade bottle lying in the spatial chain, there are twenty-three perfectly round dan medicines, which are the lower-grade mortal dan gathering qi dan. These are all the results of Jiang Huan's efforts over the past few months, and in his own words, they are just inventory.

  Upon closer inspection, Jiang Hao's breathing could be seen to have a hint of the movement of the air vortex. After several months of uninterrupted cultivation, his strength had made significant progress after breaking through to an eight-star warrior. Now, when Jiang Hao was refining the Gathering Spirit Pill, although he couldn't say it was a hundred percent success rate, he still had about eighty percent!

  "Ah, refining pills really burns money. Fortunately, with an 80% success rate, it's barely acceptable!" Jiang Huan thought to himself.

  If this were to be heard by other alchemists, it would not be surprising if they were shocked speechless. Generally, alchemists have a success rate of only 20-30%, and even some masters can barely reach 50%. A success rate of 80% is simply unheard of.

  Running with the Wind Step in the midst of weeds all over the ground is simply the most relaxing thing, although using the Wind Step at every moment is very consuming of battle qi. However, this unobstructed shuttling feeling is just to Jiang Hu's liking, after all he is still a child and having some playful heart is normal.

  The wind had just arrived, and the person had already walked far away, leaving only a faint shadow among the grass.

  After refining the elixir, Jiang Huan set off towards the inner circle of the Demon Beast Mountain Range. The first-level demon beasts on the outer circle could no longer pique his interest, and only second-level demon beasts were now the best choice for him to practice with.

  Jiang Hao used the Wind Chasing Step while also spreading out his spiritual energy, although he had a teacher protecting him, he still needed to be careful, after all, Tian wouldn't easily lend a hand.

  "Twang!" A sharp voice suddenly rang out, and Jiang Huan's advancing figure also shook violently, forcibly shifting an inch to the side. Only then did he see that on the giant tree in front of him, a glossy black arrow had been completely embedded, with only the tail still trembling constantly, revealing just how fierce this arrow was.

  In just a few breaths, the spot where he was shot had already rotted away, and a thick, pungent smell wafted over, the arrowhead having been coated with potent poison.

  "What a guy!" Jiang Hao sensed the danger and immediately pushed his Wind Chasing Steps to the limit, in the blink of an eye he had already hidden behind an ancient tree.

  The opponent is a master, no doubt about it. He had been releasing spiritual energy to probe earlier, but surprisingly didn't detect anything. It can be confirmed that the opponent's strength is at least above War Master, and is also a strong War Master who excels in long-range attacks. This makes Jiang Huan think of Kong Lin from the Iron Blood Mercenary Corps.

  A strong warrior of a war division actually launched a sneak attack on himself, if it weren't for the mysteriousness of the Wind Chasing Step, he would have been a corpse by now. Thinking about this, Jiang Huan was already covered in cold sweat.

  "Whoosh!" The sharp, piercing sound echoed again, and the giant tree where Jiang Huan was hiding was instantly shot through, quickly corroding a huge hole, while Jiang Huan's figure slowly dissipated, revealing a residual shadow.

  "Huh!" A faint cry of surprise sounded.
