The Spirit Gathering Pill was harder to refine and more complicated than an ordinary medicinal pill, and most of the herbs required had to be ten million years old. What she had now wasn't more than a hundred years old, so she didn't have enough resources. Even if she could refine it, the cleverest housewife couldn't cook without rice!
Following the pill-refining steps, Chi Shuyan created a fire, then placed the herbs inside and did the seals. Because the Spirit Gathering Pill was somewhat complex, it required a lot of spiritual energy. Chi Shuyan could only focus and form the seals frantically as she sent spiritual energy into the pill furnace.
Because the Spirit Gathering Pill really consumed too much spiritual energy, Chi Shuyan's forehead was covered in sweat, and the spiritual energy in her body also dwindled rapidly until her strength was exhausted.
