But now it was different, the Far Cultivation Pill was a Deep Low-Rank Pill. The Ten Warrior Pill, by way of comparison, was only at Deadly Rank Peak.

Their difficulty would be much greater, but the benefits would be enormous.

Le Chang spent some time studying their flames, Seiryuu occasionally telling him where he was going wrong.

"First try, use a piece of the heart" - Seiryuu.

Le Chang held the huge heart in his hands and tore off a piece.

He quickly picked up some herbs.

"Eighty-Year-Old Ginseng, Four Seasons Flower, Crimson Flame Fruit, Snowy Wind Gra.s.s, Emerald Rock Seed, Level 5 Magic Beast Blood, Level 5 Magic Beast Heart, Water Gem, Snow Gem" - Le Chang.

"Begin by drying out the eighty-year-old Ginseng and the Flower of the Four Seasons… Then the Crimson Flame Fruit the Snowy Wind Gra.s.s and the Emerald Rock Seed" - Seiryuu.

"Certo" - Le Chang.

Using his Divine Sense he levitated the Ginseng and the Flower, pushed them toward an oven opening and led them to the center, where the flames were.

"You must be careful, too hot or too weak a fire will cause the ingredients to lose" - Seiryuu.

Both ingredients needed different temperatures, but they had to be burned together and mixed slowly.

The idea was to use different ingredients to nullify each other's energy and create a balance for the pill.

Ingredients Yin and Yang were like opposites if mixed wrong would lead to the loss of ingredients and perhaps even the explosion of the oven.

Le Chang burned them slowly and turned them into a fine dust.

"Drop of Blood now," murmured Le Chang.

Using his Divine Sense he levitated a thumb-sized drop of blood.

The oven that Le Chang used had two openings on the sides through which the flames entered.

There was also an opening at the top through which the ingredients were placed.

The Level 5 Magic Beast Blood Drop slowly mixed with the powder of the two previous ingredients.

"Do the same thing with the Crimson Flame Fruit and the Snowy Wind Gra.s.s… Then mix both the pasta…" - Seiryuu.

"Certo" - Le Chang.

Le Chang calmly began toasting both ingredients, but after a while, his control over the flame failed and the Snowy Wind Gra.s.s turned to ashes.

The furnace shook, but Le Chang controlled the blast of energy with his powerful Divine Sense.

"Relax… Try again" - Seiryuu.

Le Chang continued his attempts but failed them all.

"This Pill is too hard for him ... It takes a 2nd Degree High Alchemist to do that. The boy has only done one type of Pill so far... Aren't you forcing him too much? He has missed five times" - Gao Yao.

"I want him to learn from failures ... He needs to cultivate patience amid chaos, wisdom amid darkness, peace amid war. His martial heart must be tempered and consecutive defeats will be great to temper it" - Seiryuu.

"…. Yet he can't be able to accomplish this task, he must be at the level of a 3rd Degree Alchemist, but the difference to a High Alchemist is insane" - Gao Yao.

"Hm… well, let's let him answer us about this" - Seiryuu.

********************************************

"What's the matter with that ... At the crucial moment it seems like my flame goes wild" - Le Chang.

He had already failed seven times. Even though he had plenty of ingredients, it was still frustrating. They were powerful and delicate ingredients and required impeccable flame control.

Le Chang then stopped everything and sat in the Lotus position and began to meditate to regain his energy. Continuously using your Divine Sense has brought you enormous mental and physical fatigue.

"Flame… Flame… Flame…" murmured Le Chang, thinking of a solution to his dilemma.

So far he had always been ruthless, but this experience was a blow to his mindset.

"Calm… restless… calm… restless…" Following these thoughts, Le Chang deepened his meditation.

The First Part of the Dragon G.o.d Way was fire. This was the basic Nature Transformation for dragons. They were shaped by the flames of the world, so all dragons were naturally experts in the use of fire.

The Second Part of the Way of the Dragon G.o.d was the earth. She was created by fire. From her everything was born and for her everything returned, from dust all came and to dust all return.

The Third Part of the Dragon G.o.d Way was water. She was the representation of life. Without it, there would be no living being, however ethereal and divine they may be, at birth all are dependent upon it.

Le Chang studied the nuances of his technique.

"The G.o.d of Death" These words danced now in Le Chang's mind.

What is death? Was it the end? Or just a restart? A continuation of what happened?

What did it mean to be the G.o.d of Death? Would you be superior to her?

Can death be governed? Was she not the most powerful and relentless force of all existence?

Was it possible to escape her?

He kept dancing with both techniques in his mind.

Le Chang had finally understood something extremely important.

From the beginning, he has given too much importance to his cultivation but has forgotten that brute force is not always the best way.

He was the owner of the most powerful cultivation techniques in the world, wasn't he negligent and foolish until now?

'My impatience cost me wisdom… Death is silent and constant, it comes at the right time, neither before nor after… Both Techniques value constancy, the Demon G.o.d Technique: The G.o.d of Death is based on silence and patience of death itself. The Draconian Cultivation Technique: The Way of the Dragon G.o.d is based on the perfect balance of Nature's Transformations… '- Le Chang.

His doubts were washed away, his heart became resolute and his mind was like an ancient and majestic ocean.
