Chapter 1534: Chapter 1531: Beginning Alchemy

After Chen Tianlong steadied his hand, his expression was both tense and excited. He had no idea what was going to happen next. It felt like gambling, attempting to refine a divine pill without any knowledge of proportions or methods—this was not something ordinary people could accomplish.

One must know that merely acquiring these raw materials had been an exhausting endeavor, and now Chen Tianlong had put everything in. Should he fail, then all would be wasted.

Since things had come to this point, Chen Tianlong could only give it his all. If he couldn’t pull it off, he would have no choice but to think of another way to first escape from this Immortal Demon Realm.

At this moment, a stream of pure Electric Attribute Qi was injected into the Divine Cauldron, and the cauldron immediately transformed. Previously dim and ordinary, it now sparked with the crackling of electricity surrounding it.

Seeing this phenomenon, Chen Tianlong was greatly startled and almost interrupted the Qi transmission. But recalling the words in the manual, he forced himself to calm down and continued the transmission of Qi.

The electric current coursed freely between his palm and the Divine Cauldron.

Just like that, after about two hours, sweat began to bead on Chen Tianlong’s forehead. Just as Feifei was about to step forward and help wipe his sweat, Wu Mengting held her back, "Feifei, don’t. At times like this, Chen Tianlong is highly focused. If you go over there and do something, he might... lose his concentration. Besides, you’re so beautiful and gentle. What if he gets enchanted by you, wouldn’t he fall into demonic possession?"

Feifei was fine with the first part of the sentence, but after hearing the latter part, her face flushed red halfway through, "Mengting, you’re teasing me!"

"Haha, Feifei, I’m serious; I’m not teasing you. Think about it, you’re like a blooming flower, so gentle and considerate. In Chen Tianlong’s words, you’re so naive and cute. He loves girls like you the most. If you go over to wipe his sweat, wouldn’t his breathing become rapid? You can imagine, his concentration would scatter."

Wu Mengting said a lot, but she was really just teasing Pure Yang Feifei. She felt it was time to play around with Feifei. Otherwise, their relationship would remain distant, and they couldn’t truly become good sisters, which would indeed be awkward when living together with Chen Tianlong in the future.

"Really? That serious?"

Pure Yang Feifei obviously believed Wu Mengting’s words and was immediately a bit surprised.

On the side, Chen Tianlong had actually been eavesdropping on their conversation. Truth be told, the Qi transmission was indeed very dull, but he couldn’t actively seek someone out to chat. That would indeed be distracting, but listening to others talk was fine.

Chen Tianlong’s sensory abilities were extremely formidable, allowing him to listen and work without diverting his attention.

However, if he had to speak, he would have thoughts, making it easy to become disoriented. When he heard the two women discussing the matter of wiping sweat, he was speechless. Once again, Mengting was teasing Feifei. But Feifei was so kind-hearted that no one wanted to hurt her, only to cherish her.

Two hours passed, and although he was sweating a bit, he still had sixty percent of his energy left. This high-intensity Qi transmission didn’t allow him to replenish his strength simultaneously. Otherwise, one person could manage it, but without sufficiently transmitting it, the refining requirements couldn’t be met.

So, Chen Tianlong fully accelerated the transmission speed, pushing it to the peak state.

Two hours had passed already, and Chen Tianlong needed to switch to transmitting the second attribute, directly converting to the Dark Attribute. At this point, the cauldron transformed again. The crackling electricity ceased, replaced by a dark hue surging like hidden currents.

Once again, Chen Tianlong was quite amazed. This Golden Core Divine Cauldron was indeed different. Just judging from its surface condition made one feel incredibly mystical, let alone the unseen internal workings.

Switching to a different attribute infusion caused changes in the cauldron, making Pure Yang Feifei and Wu Mengting nearby understandably nervous. They knew that when it was their turn, they too would need to swap attributes. They watched closely to see if there were any abnormalities during the conversion process.

However, after a while, everything remained the same without any adverse reactions, allowing both to breathe a sigh of relief. Chen Tianlong opened his eyes, gave a slight smile to the two women, and continued his infusion of Qi.

Another two hours passed, and at this point, Chen Tianlong clearly felt his energy nearing exhaustion. His body began to show signs of unusual strain, with sweat droplets scattered all over, drenching his clothes.

"Chen Tianlong, are you okay? Do you need us to take over?"

Wu Mengting, being the leading wife, naturally opened her mouth in concern for Chen Tianlong. After all, Chen Tianlong had already infused both Electric and Dark attributes, and now with the Light Attribute infusion, his energy had dropped to about thirty percent. At this rate, he would barely finish the third attribute before needing one of them to step in.

"I’m fine, remember to rush over when you hear my signal later and immediately conduct Qi infusion. Just in case, after you place your hands, I will withdraw." Chen Tianlong said very seriously. This was extremely important; he couldn’t afford to mess up at this critical time.

"Got it." Wu Mengting and Pure Yang Feifei both nodded, indicating they understood.

The last hour was approaching, and Wu Mengting was naturally a bit nervous about her upcoming turn. Although there seemed to be no visible issues with Chen Tianlong now, suddenly switching to another person with different strength and Qi might cause problems. No one could be sure.

Even Chen Tianlong didn’t dare to think too much, plotting as he went along, and if something went wrong, he had no solution. He would have to improvise.

Describing Chen Tianlong’s sweat as flowing wouldn’t suffice; it was more like rainfall. Understanding how dreadful it is when a person’s energy is nearly exhausted and Qi almost depleted is crucial. That’s why Chen Tianlong chose to have them each manage one attribute rather than two. Even with his heaven-defying cultivation technique and profound skills, by the third attribute, he was barely hanging on.

If Mengting or Feifei switched in, they might pass out by the second attribute. Such fatigue was something only Chen Tianlong, who experienced it firsthand, truly understood—it was hard to bear.

Before long, the sixth hour had arrived. By now, Chen Tianlong had reached his limit. If he didn’t stop, he might just faint from exhaustion. Hence, when he finished transmitting the last bit of Qi, he immediately called out: "Mengting, hurry over and receive, infuse the Ice Attribute."

"Okay." Although Wu Mengting was nervous, she had no choice but to face the situation as it had arrived. Her hands trembled slightly as she placed them on the Divine Cauldron, and sweat instantly appeared on her face, a result of her nervousness.
