Chapter 193: Crystallized Holy Water

Transcendent Holy Water!
This was the first medicinal recipe suggested by the A.I.. Therefore, Feng Lin decided to ignore the other medicinal recipe temporarily for now.
Through large amounts of data, the A.I. could instantly analyze countless possibilities. The results of its search would undoubtedly be the most suitable for his needs.
Since this medicinal recipe had appeared first, it would be enough reason for Feng Lin to choose.
Feng Lin didn’t feel that his own intelligence would be superior to the A.I.; thus, believing in the power of science was naturally an intelligent choice.
Clicking open the recipe, he discovered that this was an extremely unique genetic potion. It was a flawless-grade low-martial tier product.
This holy water didn’t have much medicinal effect by itself, but it was a kind of universal fusion agent that would draw out all the unique properties of the transcendent organs into the holy water, allowing it to unleash its greatest effect.
This was an excellent ability. He didn’t need to do anything much to the transcendent organs, and the failure rate of concocting the genetic potion would be greatly reduced. Usually, a genetic potion would only yield 10% medicinal effect of the various ingredients used to concoct it. Therefore, it would truly be a waste of valuable resources if he didn’t have the recipe for this holy water.
36 g of ice crystal powder, 11 g of skyheart snow lotus, 92 ml of vilot solution...the recipe listed the various ingredients required.
Since the A.I. presented this to him, it naturally meant that the ingredients of the recipe could all be found in the flying shuttle’s storage. Very soon, the robots of the shuttle brought all of the required ingredients out, displaying them to Feng Lin.
However, he wasn’t in a hurry to start concocting. He seriously studied the holographic projection.
Inside the projection, he could see many researchers in white lab coats busy modulating the potion.
These were the recordings of this transcendent holy water’s concoction by the staff of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company. Each step was accurate to the extreme, precise and detailed. The projection degree was 360°, and there were no dead angles. Everything could be seen clearly.
After watching one time, Feng Lin slowly closed his eyes and thought back to the steps he had seen. Each step required attention to the tiniest details, but luckily as his spirit force improved, his ability to memorize things with a single glance was also greatly enhanced. He could remember all the procedures clearly.
After ensuring that what he remembered was correct, he opened his eyes, and his hands started to move about according to what the procedures needed. His set of hands moved like flowing water, as though he had created the transcendent holy water for over a thousand times.
Next, he methodically arranged the various medicine components and slowly added them together. A few moments later, a refreshing fragrance permeated the area, causing the blood of those who smelled it to surge.
Clearly, although the holy water was only 50% completed, there were already some initial medicinal effects.
Feng Lin’s hands didn’t stop moving. He continued adding different medicinal components and followed the procedures he had seen in the holographic projection earlier.
In the end, a fire was lit and the impurities in the potion evaporated. Very soon, a bottle of potion roughly 50 ml in volume appeared. It was as clear as water and exuded a great fragrance. The medicinal properties of the different medicinal components had been perfectly combined.
Only the last step of spiritual conception was required.
Feng Lin was in full concentration. He added the spirit particles and the final ingredient: the starlight powder.
However, he actually failed at this last step. Because he didn’t have any experience, he added 0.5 grams too much. An intense reaction occurred and the potion in his hand exploded.
Feng Lin agilely dodged to the side. He shook his head and cleaned up the mess before starting the concoction process again. After absorbing the experience of this failure, he grew even more cautious.
His spirit force gushed forth, sensing the minute change to the medicinal components. He ensured that each concoction step was done to perfection.
Now, Feng Lin was in a marvelous state. Every subtle change and reaction that was occurring in the potion was completely sensed by him. Nothing was missed out.
The longer he was in this state, the more he felt the natural superiority of using spirit force to probe the concoction. No wonder alchemy in ancient times would require mental and spiritual energy. Not only did alchemists need to control the fire, but they still had to sense the myriad of changes that would occur to the medicinal components before they could succeed in their concoction.
Sadly, alchemy needed all of that, as well as the ability to control fire. Until now, Feng Lin still hadn’t managed to learn the way to control the temperature of flames with his spirit force. Because, if his control was imperfect, all attempts at pill concoctions would surely end up as a failure.
He could only walk down this path step by step. In any case, he decided to focus on potion concoction for now and leave alchemy for the future.
After the previous experience, Feng Lin didn’t make any more mistakes. He added the correct amount of starlight powder, and at this moment, the clear solution from before turned amber, emitting fragrance.
However, things hadn’t ended yet. He didn’t stop; he ignored his exhaustion and continued until a total of 1,000 ml of transcendent holy water was refined.
Feng Lin took out a purple, fist-size snake gall pearl and slowly placed it into the holy water.
The holy water instantly reacted. It was like a solution that could melt everything. The treasure pearl transformed into a liquid from the solid state as its surface grew smaller.
Purple substances continued to seep out from it into the holy water, resembling clouds and mist. In the end, the bottle of solution was faint purplish-red, and intense energy undulations radiated from it. Faint points of starlight could be seen moving about in it. It was extremely mystical.
At this step, the transcendent holy water was finally completed.
Feng Lin didn’t stop, after all, he had created a medicine crystallization technique to solidify the essence of different genetic potions into a crystal-like pill. The crystalline structure of the pill would ensure that the medicinal essence wouldn’t dissipate and that the medicinal effects reached the highest degree. Also, it was more convenient to store it like this and carry it around.
Since he had created this technique. If he didn’t make use of it, wouldn’t it be a waste?
Now there was 1,000 ml transcendent holy water. He took a vial and poured 50 ml into it before he began using the crystallization technique.
Feng Lin first placed the potion into the container as he heated it up. After that, he used the alchemy technique he had learned to ensure that the molecules joined tightly together, becoming a crystalline structure which would lock the medicinal potency within.
Under the control of his spirit force, the potion transformed into a solid state, as the beautiful and magnificent crystalline structure within took on the form of a rhombus.
Crackle.
Feng Lin still suffered from his experience. He didn’t understand the unique characteristics of the transcendent water and had allowed the temperature to surge too high. The crystalline structure was charred and shattered apart, rendering everything useless.
However, he wasn’t dispirited. Refining potions was originally an incredibly precise work that didn’t allow for the slightest of mistakes.
Failure was something very common. He restarted the whole process again, and after another five to six failures, he finally managed to concoct a crystallized version of transcendent holy water.
The object in his hand was a pentagram-shaped purple crystal. Beautiful flashes of light could be seen within, easily attracting the attention of people.
Feng Lin was confident in his own technique. He lifted his head and swallowed the tiny crystal in one gulp.
The moment the crystal entered his stomach, the medicinal effect instantly gushed forth. Feng Lin felt as if an atomic bomb had gone off inside as boundless warmth instantly flooded his entire body.
