The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Simultaneously, Charlie found himself at the Elys-Champ Hot Springs Villa, where he had already gathered the necessary
medicinal ingredients to refine twenty Life Saving Pills.
He intended to use a batch of these pills to activate the medicine cauldron.
Luckily, the ingredients required for the Life Saving Pill were not difficult to obtain and Mr. Quinton had provided Charlie with an
ample supply from the outset.
Despite this, Charlie chose to utilize the medicine cauldron for the pill refinement process.
The abundance of ingredients made him feel more at ease, knowing that he could afford to make mistakes without causing
significant loss.
Typically, Charlie would need a minimum of 20 to 30 catties of a variety of medicinal ingredients to refine twenty Life Saving Pills.
However, his alchemy technique involved enveloping the ingredients with reiki and then refining the essence with the same
energy before using aura to condense the essence into pills.
One significant advantage of this method was that the number of medicinal materials was no longer an issue, as long as there
was an adequate supply of aura.
This meant that Charlie could refine multiple batches of pills simultaneously, which was a highly efficient process.
Charlie was currently facing a predicament.
The medicine cauldron at his disposal was relatively small and it could only accommodate two or three catties of medicinal
ingredients.
This limitation meant that he could only refine one elixir at a time.
Since he had never used the cauldron for alchemy before, Charlie decided to proceed with caution and test it with a small
amount of medicine.
He cautiously added three catties of medicinal ingredients into the cauldron before channeling aura into it to activate the
formation.
As soon as Charlie activated the formation, he felt it whirring into action at an alarming pace.

To his surprise, the formation acted like a voracious black hole, instantly engulfing the full batch of medicinal ingredients without
a trace.
Charlie couldn’t believe his eyes as he watched the formation consume the ingredients with astonishing efficiency.
In no time, he added more energy to the cauldron and fed it a more substantial amount of medicinal materials, which were
quickly devoured by the insatiable formation.
Before he knew it, twenty to thirty catties of medicinal materials had disappeared into the formation and it showed no sign of
slowing down.
Charlie was astonished by the sheer power of the formation and how rapidly it consumed the ingredients.
Charlie knew that he couldn’t afford to let his guard down and continuously poured reiki into the cauldron to sustain the
formation’s insatiable appetite.
As he watched the battle between the cauldron and his reiki unfold, he couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy.
The way the formation consumed reiki reminded him of the aura cheating ring that Maria had given him and he worried that it
might also drain his energy at an alarming rate.
The formation continued to rotate at an incredible speed and in the center, small, spherical objects started to condense and
grow.
Despite his anxiety, Charlie felt some relief that the Life Saving Pill wasn’t a high-grade pill and thus not too difficult to refine.
Consequently, the formation’s high-speed operation only lasted for a minute before gradually slowing down.
Charlie finally relaxed as he watched the formation come to a halt, relieved that it no longer required his aura to keep it going.
Despite consuming the aura at an alarming rate earlier, the formation didn’t require too much energy as the process was
relatively brief.
He could sense that the formation was slowing down and that the small spherical objects in the center of the formation were now
roughly the size of regular pills.
As the formation came to a halt, the spherical objects finally revealed their true form.

Charlie eagerly peered inside the cauldron and was delighted to find twenty new pills gleaming with a soft, golden hue.
