Urban Most Awesome Dad - Chapter 264
Chapter 264: Chapter 264 Bu Yuan Dan Success_1
In the midst of everyone’s laughter and the clinking of cups and glasses, the lively lunch came to an end,
Xu Fan, Lu Chenbing, and Sun Lihua, although they didn’t drink much this time, still managed to finish five bottles of top-quality Moutai. If it weren’t for Lu Chenbing having official duties in the afternoon, he would have insisted on getting completely drunk with Xu Fan once again.
After the meal and drinks, their relationship had grown closer. In the eyes of everyone, Xu Fan no longer seemed so formidable and astounding; his image had reverted back to that of an ordinary young dad.
After lunch, the person Elder Lin had sent to deliver the medicine arrived. Elder Lin had prepared a double dose of all the ingredients on Xu Fan’s prescription with the highest quality wild medicinal materials, clearly reflecting the deep friendship between Elder Sun and Elder Lin.
Xu Fan asked Lin Shutong to take Tongtong to the upstairs bedroom to rest, then he asked Sun Lihua for a room to start making the Bu Yuan Dan elixirs for Elder Sun.
The Bu Yuan Dan was an elixir that Xu Fan often made in the Cultivation World. In the context of games, it would be the legendary health or red potion, capable of greatly replenishing the blood and vital energy of the injured, allowing them to resurrect fully healed just like characters in a game after drinking it.
However, the Bu Yuan Dan that Xu Fan made not only replenished vital energy but also had a slight effect of enhancing True Qi after Xu Fan improved the recipe. It was also significantly beneficial for martial artists’ realm advancement.
In the Cultivation World, although Bu Yuan Dan is quite common, in a world like Water Blue Star where the cultivation civilization is not as advanced, it’s probable that no one has ever seen such a miraculous elixir.
In today’s world, due to the scarcity of Spiritual Energy, it’s very difficult to produce top-grade medicinal materials. If it weren’t for Elder Lin’s ability to control the entire medicinal market of Zhonghai City, even if ordinary people knew the prescription, the cost of the medicinal materials alone might bankrupt an average household.
Seeing that all the medicinal ingredients were ready, Xu Fan instructed the Sun Family to prepare a good quality pot to begin the alchemy process.
Lu Chennong had once seen Xu Fan’s skills in making elixirs with a microwave oven, and he thought Xu Fan was going to use the microwave again this time. But when he saw Xu Fan using a pot instead, it once again refreshed his understanding of Xu Fan’s alchemy. Indeed, the boss is the boss; whatever he grabs becomes a treasure. While others could only cook with pots and furnaces, Xu Fan could create immortal elixirs—admiration was inevitable.
Elder Lin also followed closely behind Xu Fan, eager to witness the legendary process of alchemy.
To others, alchemy might seem like medieval alchemy, incomprehensible and mysterious, but Elder Lin, who is an expert in pharmacology, could glean some clues from Xu Fan’s choice of tools for making medicine.
Seeing that Xu Fan was using an ordinary cooking pot, Elder Lin was even more astonished. Being able to make the legendary elixir with such a common pot could only mean one thing: the key to Xu Fan’s alchemical skills wasn’t in the pill furnace, but rather in that mysterious little flame that had once appeared on his palm—the Dan Fire.
As Elder Lin had guessed, after Xu Fan ground all the medicinal ingredients, he put them into the pot in the correct proportions and set the pot on an induction cooker.
Just as everyone thought Xu Fan was going to make a soup for his grandmother, a taste of home, he slowly extended his palm and pressed it against the pot.
A cluster of red flames appeared in Xu Fan’s hand, and then the medicinal herbs in the pot began to emit an enchanting medicinal aroma.
“So this is Dan Fire! No wonder it’s so difficult to find an alchemist in the world; without Dan Fire, it’s almost impossible to concoct elixirs,” Elder Lin murmured as he watched Xu Fan’s method of concocting pills.
Xu Fan paid no mind to the astonishment and sentiments of the onlookers, immersing all his thoughts in the elixir within the pot.
Xu Fan’s strength wasn’t considered very high at the moment. He was simply relying on his many years of experience in alchemy to make the elixir, so he needed to precisely control the heat of the Dan Fire. Only by mastering the temperature could he refine elixirs with better quality and effects when the time came.
After watching Xu Fan’s alchemy process for a while, everyone found it tedious and began to attend to their own business, except for Elder Lin and Sun Lihua, who stayed by Xu Fan’s side, anxiously staring at the pot in his hands, waiting for the elixir to be ready.
Twenty minutes later, the gooey medicinal herbs in the pot finally slowly solidified into two round medicinal pills shining with a red luster, and the fragrance of the medicine within the room became even stronger.
With Xu Fan’s final shout, a gentle mist passed through the pot, and after the mist dissipated, the two red elixirs were already floating in the air.
Xu Fan picked up a jade bottle he had prepared earlier and caught the two elixirs, then handed it to Sun Lihua, who had been waiting by his side.
“Xu my friend, are these the Bu Yuan Dan that can replenish the damaged vital energy?” Lin Yaoshi, standing aside, remarked in amazement as he looked at the two red elixirs in the bottle.
“Yes, but due to limited materials, these are the simplest version of the Bu Yuan Dan,” Xu Fan nodded and said to Elder Lin.
In a place like Water Blue Star, being able to refine even the simplest Bu Yuan Dan was already an accomplishment. In the true Cultivation World, Bu Yuan Dan is classified into twelve grades, each requiring several types of especially rare Spiritual Medicines as the foundation.
Here on Water Blue Star, it was already difficult to obtain ordinary medicinal herbs, let alone Spiritual Medicines that were rare to come by. Ingredients like Blood Bodhi, sought after by every cultivator, were nearly impossible to obtain at auctions, not to mention the urgent need for life-saving medications; there was simply no opportunity to refine them.
However, even the lowest-grade Bu Yuan Dan was as effective as the legendary elixirs to ordinary people. Elder Sun’s ailment had been seen by at least a few hundred hospitals, each of which was helpless.
And Xu Fan’s two Bu Yuan Dans could completely resolve the trouble afflicting Elder Sun.
“Alright, the Bu Yuan Dan has been successfully concocted. It’s time to administer it to Elder Sun. Take the first pill, and if there is no discomfort, continue with the second pill after half an hour. I estimate that Elder Sun’s health can completely recover, and his Martial Dao Realm can also be restored,” Xu Fan instructed earnestly after passing the bottle containing the elixir to Sun Lihua.
“Alright, alright, I will immediately have the elder take the medicine,” Sun Lihua nodded to Xu Fan, not hiding the excitement in his heart, walking so fast it was as if he was flying, and hurriedly ran to the room where the elder was staying.
