Chapter 5071 We are friends

"Yi actually helped you." Qi looked at Xiao Yan in disbelief.

Xiao Yan was taken aback. This wasn't the first time it had helped him. He had assumed it treated everyone in the meeting the same way, but it seemed there was still some discrimination.

"I explained the situation, that Brother Xuanhuang's life was in imminent danger, which is why I was willing to help and took out this item."

Xiao Yan smiled wryly and said that this kind of thing should not be exposed easily, and it seemed that they did not know Yi's true identity either.

“Alright, I’ve found the other two items. I also happen to have the recipe for the Soul Purification Pill.”

The Crane Immortal flapped his wings and collected all the items, finding the other two medicinal herbs and the pill formula.

The Crane Immortal seemed to possess a great many of these two items: the Nine Heavens Pure Spirit Water and the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Stone Milk. Both were contained in crystal.

"let's start."

Xiao Yan sat down cross-legged, and three key medicinal herbs were presented to him. However, forming a transcendent-grade pill was not that simple; it required tens of thousands of auxiliary medicinal herbs.

As for the issue of these medicinal herbs, it was naturally not something Xiao Yan needed to consider. Crane Immortal took them out from different feathers on his body, categorizing them one by one.

After everything was prepared, Xiao Yan's gaze swept over all the medicinal herbs, and in the next instant, all of them floated in mid-air. Xiao Yan closed his eyes and began to observe these herbs further to determine their exact medicinal properties.

Xiao Yan has already successfully refined a transcendent-grade pill once, so it couldn't possibly be more difficult to refine than the Yin-Yang Mother-Child Pill.

Having gained experience from the first time, Xiao Yan was at least confident. Although he might be a little unfamiliar with alchemy, they probably didn't understand alchemy at the moment and couldn't see any clues.

With ample preparation, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, and three-colored flames surged forth, simultaneously refining and fusing tens of thousands of medicinal herbs in the correct order.

For Xiao Yan, who possesses a Void Realm Soul, this was not a difficult task.

Of course, the most difficult part to extract are the three key medicinal herbs.

After successfully refining and fusing tens of thousands of medicinal herbs, a nascent pill has been formed. Now, Xiao Yan is continuously purifying it and improving its grade.

A moment later, the elixir reached the divine grade and was successfully purified. Now, to make it transcendent, these three medicinal herbs are needed.

The first one was the Nine Heavens Pure Spirit Water. Xiao Yan refined it to a drop the size of a thumb and slowly placed it on the divine-grade embryonic pill. Instantly, the embryonic pill began to tremble wildly, showing signs of instability.

However, Xiao Yan managed to stabilize the situation with a little control, and the first fusion was successful, with the first ray of light floating above the pill.

The second ingredient, the Ten-Thousand-Year Stone Milk, is the essence of the earth and can greatly enhance the quality of this pill.

This step also went without any unexpected events. Now, we've reached the last ingredient: Dawn Lotus.

Xiao Yan was astonished when he saw this lotus. The fluctuations it emitted were unlike anything he had ever felt before. This was no ordinary medicinal herb, nor could it be cultivated in the Nine Realms.

All the previous steps have been successful. The last one is crucial and difficult, and it is the most challenging part of this elixir.

Xiao Yan's three-colored flames enveloped him, but the first step of the flames couldn't shake it, causing him to frown.

Xiao Yan immediately increased the temperature of the flames, fearing that the temperature would be too high, but it seemed that his worries were unfounded. Despite continuously increasing the temperature, the Dawn Lotus remained completely still.

The flames intensified, to the point that the surrounding temperature could no longer be contained, and scorching waves of fire continued to spread from the dragon's lair.

But it still had no effect. If it cannot be refined, how can it be fused?

"Could it be that the Nine Realms Fire cannot be refined?" Xiao Yan murmured. Crane Immortal was also looking somewhat solemn under the intense heat.

Xiao Yan had already raised the temperature of the flames to the extreme, but they still couldn't melt. Apart from the Annihilation Flame that he couldn't use within his body, he had already exhausted all his strength.

"It seems the Flame of the Nine Realms cannot be refined; this is truly a troublesome matter," said the Crane Immortal.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go find some fire."

After saying that, Crane Immortal took out his precious jade and tried to contact it, but there was no response.

Xiao Yan smiled wryly. It seemed the truth was out now, and he wondered if the other person would respond to him later.

At this point, Xiao Yan stopped refining the flames. Since the flames couldn't break the deadlock, he had no choice but to seek help from Yi again.

"Ahem, he must have been busy, that's why he didn't respond to me," said the Crane Master somewhat awkwardly.

Xiao Yan dared not delay, for if he continued to drag it out, the pill would fail to be refined. Therefore, he had no choice but to take out his special jade and immediately contact someone.

"It's no use. It's busy, otherwise it would have replied to me." Crane Immortal shook his head and said. Just as he finished speaking, the precious jade in Xiao Yan's hand burst into light.

Xiao Yan immediately closed his eyes, and after a moment, an invisible flame appeared in his hand.

Without saying a word, he flicked his finger and it landed on the Dawn Lotus. Instantly, an invisible fire spread out, and the Dawn Lotus that Xiao Yan could not burn was refined into a drop of sweet dew, which finally landed on the embryonic core!

Instantly, the fragrance of the pill spread, and the pill exuded a powerful life force. It immediately transformed into a rainbow and tried to escape, but Xiao Yan was already prepared and instantly took action to control it.

Compared to the Yin-Yang Mother-Child Pill, this Origin Purification Pill is indeed simpler to refine. Of course, without Yi's help, it would have been impossible to refine it.

As for Crane Immortal, it hadn't recovered yet. Its gaze was first filled with doubt, then with self-questioning, and finally with suspicion as it looked at Xiao Yan.

"Nine, what's our relationship like?" Crane Immortal asked, catching Xiao Yan off guard with his sudden question.

Xiao Yan was the first to raise his hand and toss the pill toward Xuan Huang, who understood and swallowed it.

"Of course it's very good. You've helped me so much, I'm extremely grateful." Xiao Yan then turned to look at Crane Immortal, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, and said.

“In our previous life, we were friends,” Master Crane said earnestly.

"Although I didn't inherit the memories of my previous life, I've already guessed it. Thank you for your help," Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"In that case, could you tell me what your relationship is with Yi? Have you ever seen it?" Crane Immortal looked at Xiao Yan seriously and pressed for an answer.

Xiao Yan was taken aback, then realized that when Crane Immortal contacted Yi, he had not received a response, while Yi had responded immediately to him.

This caused great doubt in Crane Immortal's heart. He clearly did not want to pay attention to it, but he valued Xiao Yan very much.

"I've never seen them. I joined the meeting later, and actually, I don't know most of the things." Xiao Yan wasn't lying, because it would be too easy to be exposed if he lied to these old monsters face to face.
