When refining pills, one must maintain intense focus.

In the moment when Wang Shouyi was distracted while watching Chen Huaian, the white smoke in the pill furnace gradually turned black, and a burnt smell wafted out.

"It's over!" He snapped back to reality and tried to salvage the situation, but it was too late; the furnace had already turned into a pile of blackened residue.

Chen Huaian deliberately leaned over to take a look at Wang Shouyi's furnace and chuckled, "Brother Wang, your Rejuvenation Pill has quite a strong aroma this time... Did you use some new formula?"

Even though the pill in the furnace hadn't taken shape, he still noticed a faint gray aura emanating from it.

It was confirmed! Even without using the Ascension Pillar, just by using the pill refining techniques of those sects or consuming pills made by Ascenders, one would be tainted by that peculiar gray aura. This meant that he absolutely couldn't let his subordinates consume these sects' pills in the future. Although the gray aura was faint and thin, it's better to be safe than sorry.

Hearing Chen Huaian's teasing, Wang Shouyi blushed and stammered, "Senior, it was a mistake on my part. Please give me another chance, I promise I will..."

"Ah~" Chen Huaian waved his hand.

"Brother Wang, I acknowledge your abilities, and I am confident you can refine a complete and edible Rejuvenation Pill. But before that, why don't you first sample the pill I just refined?"

He picked up a freshly refined Rejuvenation Pill and held it in front of Wang Shouyi.

The pill was crystal clear, without any impurities, resembling a brown glass bead.

The mere fragrance of the pill made one's mouth water, and just a whiff of its aroma could invigorate the spirit.
