The Alchemy Furnace I didn’t go to bed until one o’clock. 2165 words 2026-04-11 01:30:46

"Black Phoenix shell; the inner membrane of the eggshell is pale yellow and noticeably thicker." Ji Die gazed at the medicine rack before him, where two black eggshells rested in boxes crafted from spirit wood.

His focus remained fixed on the dried membrane inside the shells. After a moment, he used his command token to deactivate the formation and reached for the box on the right—that was indeed the Black Phoenix shell.

"The spirit herbs Yun Su requested have all been gathered. I wonder how one earns contribution points." Ji Die lowered his head and closed the box. Although he was tempted to buy the materials for the Bone Restoration Pill as well, he abandoned the idea, fearing Yun Su might discover it.

As Ji Die pondered, he walked toward the floor...

"Old man, look at your disciple—stealing peanuts in my mouse cage and getting himself trapped!" Li Ye remarked with cold sarcasm, using the mouse to scold the man.

Ji Ling picked up the doll again, intending to tear it apart and show Wen Xi the consequences of defying her.

Having said her piece, Ji Ling seemed unsatisfied; she swept the tableware off the table. The glass shattered against the floor, scattering shards everywhere.

Wen Xi, who had just returned from picking flowers, let out a series of horrified screams upon seeing Ye Duo lying on the ground in a pool of blood.

For some reason, Donna, who possessed the strength of a Hero-level fighter, failed to dodge Yuan Di's attack. Blushing furiously, she hid behind Lola, who had remained silent the entire journey. As for Xi Bang, he had long since turned away, head bowed, studying the patterns on his shoes to see if they were attractive.

Over the past six months, Chou Hongde had broken through to the "Pseudo-Saint" stage, but now he remained stuck at the final threshold. Indeed, each step upward felt harder than ascending to heaven.

Four mechs stood in the training field. As Zhang Yi announced the start, three of them soared directly into the sky.

Madam Shen did not mind at all and returned to her quarters. Offering morning greetings to the Matriarch was a matter of etiquette; whether the Matriarch chose to see her or not was of no concern to her.

The two traded blows for a long time until Zhang Yi, exhausted, lay on the ground gasping for air.

Song Wei was like a fish in water at the bar; before long, a group of high-quality young men had gathered around them.

"Roar!" The giant ape, trapped by the formation, went berserk, struggling desperately to break free from its invisible bonds while letting out deafening, earth-shaking roars.

Only Da Zhangwei sat beside Wang Zichen as a matter of course, staring intensely at the fish in his hands. "This one is mine, so I won't lift a finger. Besides, I can't bring myself to eat the things I cook." Wang Zichen was speechless; he sprinkled seasoning on the fish, grilled it for less than a minute, and handed it to Da Zhangwei.

"Auntie, the food you make is just too delicious!" Su Can said, popping a piece of braised pork into his mouth, his face filled with satisfaction.

While Liang Ziyan was still immersed in her own sorrow, a bolt of lightning ripped across the sky, echoing through the valley. Liang Ziyan shivered involuntarily; it seemed a thunderstorm was brewing.

"Very well, send someone to meet up with Jun Feng. Most importantly, ensure the safety of the 'Explosive Blade' Feimo!" Jun Wanmaru said coldly.

Lin Feng gave a gentle twist... accompanied by a crisp "snap," the terrorist let out a miserable scream.

Though he spoke somewhat bluntly, Su Can felt quite satisfied. He did not need someone glib; he needed someone who would genuinely care for the elephants and work diligently.

It was just a game, after all; no one would die. It was merely a matter of a lottery chance or a few lost points.

Kiritsugu and Irisviel prepared to summon a second Heroic Spirit. This extra-curricular spirit, appearing through a loophole—they only hoped this traveler would be easy to get along with. Saber, standing to the side, was surprised that her Master would summon a second spirit. Looking at his grave expression, it seemed this spirit was someone formidable.

With a miserable groan, Duan turned pale, blood spraying from his body. The intense pain left him completely unable to maintain his composure.

"Beast, what do you think you're doing?" Qing Xuan glared at the Kui Demon General and shouted, channeling the Nine-Colored Glazed Canopy to increase the power of the light barrier by thirty percent, preventing the Kui Demon General from escaping.

Actually, he knew Huang Xiao was just making idle conversation, so he naturally followed the topic and asked further.

Ouman, caught in the gap between launching and recovering from an attack, had no time to dodge. Unable to catch the blow with his bare hands, he had no choice but to mobilize his Battle Aura to form armor for defense.

The competition with Li Tao lasted only one day, so on the way back to the hospital with Brother Lei, I gave him a rough summary of the situation. Brother Lei said that on his side, only Xiong Yi was a capable fighter. As for Yang Haizi, while his marksmanship was excellent, his close-quarters combat was likely subpar.

Could it be that someone else in this reincarnation world possesses a special ability identical to my reincarnation skill?

You Luo did not understand the meaning behind her sisters' words. When she looked over, she found Meng Niya staring at her with a smile.

"You, you are!" The leader stared at the man before him in terror, countless beads of cold sweat erupting on his forehead.

Li Kong’s temperament was slightly steadier than Feng Hai’s, and he reacted immediately. With sword energy descending upon him, Li Kong could no longer afford to worry about the taboo of releasing true essence within the miasma. He twisted the blood blade in his hand and unleashed a flare of blood-fire to meet the sword energy.

"That's it. We have things to do. If you have nothing better to do, please go elsewhere!" Xu Yan unceremoniously helped Murong Xue chase them off, fearing that these eyesores would follow and ruin their plan to deal with Murong Fuyun today.

This was a powerhouse at the Main God level; there should have been no chance for him to bridge the gap. Yet, the existence of the Godhead had forcibly reversed the situation.

The three demons exchanged glances, unsure of whom he meant by "get lost," yet they understood from the stranger's expression that this man in black belonged to neither of their factions.

In the reception hall, only Xie Nian’s expression shifted slightly. Even though he was oblivious to social nuances, he knew that although the youth claimed to be delivering gifts on behalf of Old Madam Chu to Bao Jie'er... he understood that this boy was actually Chu Ye's confidant, left by Chu Ye’s side to protect Bao Jie'er from being bullied or humiliated.

Bell’s lance slowly lowered. As the tip pointed forward, he tucked the shaft under his arm. Even though his lance was not as thick as his opponent's, he was determined to land a strike—that was all Bell thought of now. There was no fear, no hesitation, only an indomitable spirit driving him forward.
