The first spirit tide was destroyed. The 800 kg worth of crimson refinement gunpowder produced earlier was all completely used up.

The army instantly gave the order to continue production. They also sent in large amounts of ingredients, almost to the point where the production team wasn’t able to use them up.

But Feng Lin had completely freed himself from this.

Right now, everyone in the refinement team had learned the technique and could operate on their own. And as they grew more experienced and proficient with the technique, their production rate increased tremendously, reaching roughly 150kg per day. This amount was truly shocking.

The army would send people here to collect the crimson refinement gunpowder every day, and they also constructed special cannons to deal greater damage to the spirit race.

The atmosphere within the Great Wall University was extremely nervous and intense.

However, Feng Lin simply ignored all external matters and focused on his cultivation in close-door seclusion.

But the poor are ignored in the busiest city, while the rich will find relatives in the deepest mountain.

Although he entered closed-door cultivation, he didn’t obtain the peace and quiet he sought. His id microchip kept ringing with notifications. There would constantly be people sending various messages to him.

“Feng Lin, I’m Fei Luo, a third-year from the Great Wall University and I’m the chairman of the Star Battle Society which is ranked among the top ten societies. The killing might of your crimson refinement gunpowder is extremely powerful, and thus we are keen to work with you to research a new type of ammunition that can be used to deal with the spirit race. This opportunity is extremely rare to come by. If you don’t reply within three hours, I will take it that you are not keen!” The tone of the voice was filled with arrogance. Feng Lin didn’t even bother to look at it.

“I’m Chen Ji, an elite adept from the Medicinal Refinement Society. Your crimson refinement gunpowder isn’t bad, but you should share the recipe and technique to benefit all of humanity. If I can join in, my production scale would definitely exceed your tiny team’s!”

“I’m a fourth-year student from the Martial Academy. I’m willing to take out 100,000 contribution points to buy 100 kg worth of crimson refinement gunpowder. If you are keen, we can set a meet-up!”

“Hi, I’m a senior from the Mythology Academy and I’ve obtained your contact information from Master Hai. I’m already a medicinal refinement grandmaster and I wonder if I can join your team to learn the Crimson Refinement Creation Technique?”

…

There were all sorts of messages. The majority of them were about the crimson refinement gunpowder, while the minority were people asking to join the crimson refinement team.

But how could Feng Lin have the mood to bother with their requests? He just felt that they were extremely troublesome.

He also had no idea how the majority of these people managed to get his contact information. They must have pulled out the stops and used all types of methods

The crimson refinement gunpowder was treated as a military-grade object, and all the products from the team would be given to the army for them to decide what to do

Unless the creator Feng Lin concocted some by himself and agreed to have private transactions with these people, they would never obtain any.

But he had long started on new research. He was no longer content to just concoct the crimson refinement gunpowder.

One must know that even the main object, the crimson refinement cinnabar pill, was simply one of the most ordinary types of alchemy pill in the alchemy arts he inherited.

Before the war against the spirit race was over, Feng Lin truly didn’t have the time to spare.

There was boundless terror in the universe. Those races who could survive until now were not ordinary, let alone a terrifying one such as the spirit race.

He specifically searched for information pertaining to the spirit race. He needed to understand everything he could about them: their body structures, the way they evolved. They evolved faster than other races because they didn’t have the constraints of a physical body. The spirit mother would adapt its genetic code according to different environments, giving birth to different types of spirit monsters.

After suffering a huge disadvantage in the first clash, the spirit race would surely evolve themselves quickly to better adapt to the effects of the crimson refinement gunpowder. Feng Lin surely had to make preparations for this.

After the first clash with the spirit race, he understood the fearsomeness of them more and more. Other people might neglect this point but he wouldn’t.

Feng Lin instantly treated this point as the topic of his research. He wanted to search for more external-refinement alchemy pills that could do even greater damage to energy-type lifeforms.

Although external alchemy pills were only about 10% of the furnace alchemy sect’s inheritance, the number of pills recorded was significant.

The types of cinnabar pills’ recipes are all different, each contained a wondrous effect.

Feng Lin quickly browsed and searched for an upgrade to the crimson refinement cinnabar pill. He soon chose another recipe, the name of this pill was known as the crimson gold cinnabar.

The ingredients needed for the crimson gold cinnabar were spirit fire crystals, skyriver gold, black crystal ore, and star sand… All the materials contained the attributes of fire and the end product would resemble golden sand, causing a golden fire that was capable of incinerating everything to manifest.

It was also a cinnabar-type pill. But for the same amount, the crimson gold cinnabar pill could unleash 100x the might of crimson refinement cinnabar pill. It was extremely dangerous. Because they resembled golden particles of sand, they looked extremely similar to tiny crystals. There was no need to simplify the process and the might-level explosively surged.

Although the cost of the ingredients was ten times more expensive, Feng Lin didn’t worry about this. He used his fame from inventing the crimson refinement gunpowder to obtain vast amounts of medical ingredients from the army. He didn’t even need to spend a single contribution point for them.

In truth, the crimson gold cinnabar pill was an advanced version of the crimson refinement cinnabar pill. The majority of the ingredients stayed the same, and there were only roughly ten types of valuable ingredients that were new.

Very soon, the army approved his request and sent a huge amount of medical ingredients to him.

Feng Lin meticulously deduced the concoction process and began to act.

Furnace activate!

The true fire blazed brilliantly. The crimson fire crystal, the skyriver gold, the star sand, the black crystal ores…all the main ingredients were placed into the furnace following a detailed order. They then fused together and melted down into liquid form.

Solidify!

He performed hand seals as his vast spirit force entered the furnace, controlling the strength of the flames to fuse the ingredients into a sphere-like shape. Crimson light flashed as the medicinal properties were combined together. All impurities were also evaporated.

Fire weakens!

The true fire within the furnace could sense his will. The flames weakened, nurturing and seeping into the pill slowly.

The pill slowly turned golden, radiating treasure light. Just a single glance was sufficient to tell that this wasn’t an ordinary object.

He was about to succeed. Now, only the final step of the pill collection was left. However, he didn’t have experience and a mistake occurred. The violent medical potency erupted forth, causing the air to tremble.

Luckily, the furnace was a mythological object from ancient times and was incomparably tough. The explosion didn’t damage it.

If not, if the violent energies from the explosion leaked out, the entire refinement chamber would be blasted to the skies.

But the more it was so, the more one could tell that the might of the crimson gold cinnabar pill was extraordinary.

Feng Lin reviewed his mistakes and continued with his second attempt.

The earlier processes flowed smoothly like flowing water.

Pill collection!

This time, he didn’t make another mistake.

The furnace opened up as a golden alchemy pill floated silently toward his hand. A crimson golden light radiated from it and flowed around the pill like water.

This pill was clearly extraordinary. Just by holding it in his palm, Feng Lin could clearly sense its boundlessly vast firepower with his spirit force. The power was like a surging magma inside a volcano, fully prepared to erupt at any moment. Its might was simply unfathomable.

The method to use this pill was also unique. One had to use a special type of pill controlling technique to control it as they willed. However, this pill was only a one-time use treasure although it was extremely extraordinary.

In ancient times, this item was a crucial catalyst for many lightning and thunder-type formations.

Feng Lin had a faint premonition. Maybe, this crimson gold cinnabar could become one of his killing trump cards.

In fact, he was now actually anticipating the arrival of the spirit race. Only at that time could he truly test out how powerful this new killing trump card of his was.
