Chen Hao scanned his surroundings with his spiritual consciousness.
After Mirror Village disappeared, the surroundings could be clearly seen at a glance.
Outside the open space left by the disappearance of Mirror Village, strong winds howled, and the environment changed at a slow speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Sometimes it snows heavily, and sometimes it rains heavily.
This is a common scene in the Zinan Mountains before entering Mirror Village.
However, the open space where he was located was not affected. The weather was still sunny and the temperature was stable.
Chen Hao's spiritual consciousness scanned the edge of the open space and found that the open space was not unaffected, but was also eroded by the environment, but this erosion was much slower than the outside world.
Immediately, Chen Hao noticed the many colorful glass beads left behind by Mirror Nightmare after his death, and suddenly became enlightened.
The glass beads retain the residual breath of the mirror, which resists the erosion of changes in the natural environment.
So the open space was not affected as quickly as the outside world.
However, Mirror Nightmare is already dead, and there is not much remaining breath. Sooner or later, it will be completely eroded by the natural environment, and the blank space left behind will not last long.
Chen Hao glanced at the speed of erosion of the open space and made a simple estimate.
In about seven days, the remaining aura of the Mirror Nightmare will be eroded away, the open space will disappear, and it will completely become part of the ever-changing environment of the Southern Mountains.
"Seven days is almost enough."
Chen Hao thought to himself and decided to refine the inner elixir in the open space.
With the residual aura of the Mirror Nightmare, not only will the natural environment erode slowly, but other monsters will automatically avoid it when they sense it, which will save him a lot of trouble.
Immediately, Chen Hao performed Taoist moves, and with himself as the center, a closed circle of isolation and restriction was arranged within a radius of tens of meters.
Immediately, from the outside world, Chen Hao seemed to be invisible.
Breath, sound, image...all were blocked by isolation and prohibition.
Then Chen Hao sat cross-legged in the middle of the open space, stretched out his hand and patted it, and a silver-white cauldron flew out from the Tiandao Merit Tower and landed in front of him.
He built a small formation under the cauldron. With a slight click, the formation automatically ignited flames and burned blazingly.
Chen Hao took out a few spiritual stones and added them to the formation to ensure that the flames had enough energy support.
Then he opened the lid of the cauldron and took out a large amount of materials from the storage bag. After weighing the quantities with his hands, he sorted them into categories and put them into the cauldron in a fixed order.
After placing the materials, Chen Hao checked it several times with his spiritual consciousness to confirm that it was correct. Then he took out the inner elixir with a strange shadow, put it into the cauldron, and stuffed it into the center of all the materials.
There cannot be any deviation in this central position, it must be heated and stressed evenly, and the same material force can be absorbed in all directions, otherwise, even if it is made, the inner elixir will have flaws.
After confirming, Chen Hao closed the lid of the cauldron, adjusted the flame under the cauldron, and started refining after reaching an optimal temperature.
Afterwards, Chen Hao took out a few magic weapons from his storage bag, and arranged a powerful formation inside the isolation formation to form a double protection to avoid accidents. It didn't matter if he hit him, but if the alchemy furnace was destroyed, the impact would be
That would be bad for making alchemy.
After all, there is only one inner elixir for Shadow Weirdness and Mirror Nightmare, which can only be refined once. Once it is broken, it will never be used again.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is extremely precious.
After finishing all this, Chen Hao sat cross-legged in front of the cauldron, observing the inside of the cauldron with his spiritual consciousness without blinking, checking the refining situation.
Although everything is executed perfectly according to the method, the actual refining is affected by various practical factors and cannot be without any errors. Therefore, Chen Hao must keep an eye on it at all times and make adjustments as soon as possible if there are any deviations.
In addition, the heat also needs to be adjusted at any time. The material needs to be at what temperature, and it must be perfectly matched.
It was very quiet inside the isolation formation, without any sound except for the crackling sound of the flames burning under the cauldron.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
Inside the cauldron, under the high temperature, most of the materials melted, merged with each other, and reacted with the strange inner elixir of shadow wrapped in the center.
In the black inner alchemy, from time to time, there is a faint but faint black energy emanating from it.
That is the poison in the demon's life.
It is said that it is a toxin, but it is actually a chemical substance that is different from the human body. It is normal for demons, but it is highly toxic to humans. It must be baked at high temperature to extract the toxin, otherwise the toxin will not be removed.
It is not surprising that after taking it, it can cause poisoning and harm the body at the least, and become obsessed with it and even turn into a demon directly.
After half a day, the toxins in the strange inner elixir of shadow were completely extracted.
After another half day, the inner elixir softened and turned into something like a candy-centered egg, somewhere between solid and liquid.
All materials blend perfectly and turn into colorful liquid, which enters the inner elixir little by little.
Humans and demons are completely different in terms of body structure, power system and other aspects, so humans cannot directly swallow the inner elixir. If they want to obtain the ability of demons and ghosts, they must use complex methods to refine the inner elixir, remove the waste and retain the essence, and expel it.
Toxins cannot be taken until they are in a state acceptable to the human body.
Doing this can minimize side effects, but of course, the price paid is that you cannot fully obtain the abilities of monsters and ghosts.
Just like stir-fry, lettuce has the highest nutritional value, but lettuce cannot be eaten and can only be cooked, but during the cooking process, the nutrients will be lost.
The same goes for refining the demon inner elixir.
However, the best inner elixir has locked all the demon's life essence, and coupled with Chen Hao's carefully adapted refining method, the loss will be minimized.
After another half day, all the material solutions entered the inner elixir, and after a complex reaction, they were closely fused and became increasingly concentrated.
The inside of the inner elixir has also completely changed from semi-fluid to fluid, and gradually spreads throughout the bead, and every place is even and just right.
Chen Hao looked at it and nodded slightly.
It took a day and a half to refine, and there were no mistakes. The refining situation was ideal.
Look at this, after the same amount of time, you will be done.
Another day passed, and there was no liquid in the cauldron, except for a bead that kept changing colors as it was being refined.
It is suspended inside the cauldron, like a planet, rotating automatically and rapidly. Everywhere in the body is heated evenly, without any difference.
The inside of the bead no longer changes, but becomes more and more solidified, faintly turning into an entity.
In the last half day, as the flames slowly extinguished, the inner elixir also stopped rotating and floated in the center of the cauldron.
After merging so many precious materials, the inner alchemy did not swell in the end. It was still the same size as it was before, and appeared black and red. The black was like a shadow, smooth and crystal clear, without any flaws.
It looks like the refined Shadow Weird Inner Elixir is like a refined elixir of the highest quality.
This is actually true, because the essence of refining the inner elixir is to refine the inner elixir as an elixir.
The demon inner elixir cannot be eaten directly, but the elixir is edible.
