Firstly, the little ferret was indeed mysterious and lovable, and secondly, Xiao Lingyu didn't know how to collect the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass, so after thinking for a moment, he didn't act recklessly and instead brought the little ferret into his Divine Dwelling before heading towards the Wondrous Pill Sect's encampment.
The valley where the Miraculous Pill Sect was stationed was still as quiet as ever. In a rather spacious pavilion, Qing Xuan was lying on a wooden bed with an ice-cold body. Her beautiful face, which was wrapped in ice crystals, had a rosy glow to it. It was obvious that the injuries on her body had recovered very well.
"Old Mao, how do we get this Demon Head Ice Soul Grass?" Xiao Lingyu asked Mao Zhen after imprisoning the little ferret's body.
"It's very simple. Just kill this little thing and turn its body into ashes, leaving only the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass," Mao Zhen replied indifferently.
When Xiao Lingyu heard this, he couldn't help but frown, thinking that this old man really wasn't a good person. His heart was actually so vicious, but he still tried his best to ask politely, "Is there a way to take the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass without killing it?"
"There is, but it's very troublesome. There's not much time left, so there's no need to waste time on this," Mao Zhen said indifferently.
"Tell me what the method is first," Xiao Lingyu insisted.
He felt that this little ferret was not only cute, but also very mysterious. At the very least, it had a strong advantage in sensing danger and speed over short distances. If he could keep it by his side, it would be a great help.
"Accelerate the ripening of the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass and make it leave this little thing's body," Mao Zhen replied.
"How do you accelerate its ripening? How long will it take? "Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"To accelerate the ripening of such a Divine Grade existence, you need a drop of Life Essence Milk, and you'll have to wait for more than a hundred years," Mao Zhen replied.
When Xiao Lingyu heard this, his frown naturally deepened.
"I do have a few drops of Life Essence Milk, but this kind of existence can even accelerate the ripening of a Divine Grade existence. For alchemy masters like us who regard high-grade herbs as our lives, it's even more precious than a Divine Grade existence. You probably won't be willing to buy a drop. Moreover, can you wait for another hundred years? "Mao Zhen added with a smile.
"How many divine stones does a drop of Life Essence Milk cost? Name a price."
Before Xiao Lingyu could answer, Elder Peng had already spoken.
Elder Peng spoke up because he saw that Xiao Lingyu liked the little ferret. Secondly, he felt that the little ferret was worth keeping. Thirdly, he felt very uncomfortable when he saw Mao Zhen's posture.
"Elder Peng, can we wait another hundred years?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"Why can't we wait? Now, the materials are all ready. However, it will take him many years to process these materials. Moreover, the Demon Head Icesoul Grass's medicinal efficacy will definitely be much stronger when it matures. Waiting for a hundred years is worth it. "Elder Peng nodded and explained.
Alchemy Peng, the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass. Even if there's a delay, there's no delay, to the Demon Head Ice will '''s, to refine, and it.... and., there '' ''s's's,' '''s, '' to's's..... the't '' ''s has's''s have to wait wait wait ''s wait wait wait, and wait, while I's, you,' '''t't, you's,'s''s' '' '''s''s.........
"Then we'll have to trouble Elder Peng again," Xiao Lingyu said with a bitter smile.
Mao Zhen extorted another ten thousand low-grade divine stones for a drop of Life Essence Milk. Fortunately, Elder Peng was also a great master and had accumulated a lot of wealth. Otherwise, only a few Immortal Venerables would be able to take out so many divine stones.
After receiving Elder Peng's divine stones, Mao Zhen took out a small jade bottle. There were a few drops of milky white liquid floating in the bottle. That liquid was the Life Essence Milk.
Mao Zhen opened the jade bottle and took out a drop of Life Essence Milk, dripping it directly on the little ferret's head.
Immediately, the little ferret's body shook, and then it was tightly wrapped in a milky white light. It slowly closed its eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
"You guys wait here. I'll go process the ingredients."
After Mao Zhen said this, he left with his disciples. It seemed like he did not want to process the ingredients in front of everyone.
When Xiao Lingyu was fighting with the toads, he had suffered heavy injuries. Now that he had nothing to do, and he had to wait for more than a hundred years, he could take advantage of this time to recuperate.
Before a hundred years had passed, Mao Zhen had already processed all the other ingredients. He was only waiting for the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass to mature. Xiao Lingyu's body also gradually recovered to its peak state.
Finally, after waiting for more than a hundred and twenty years, the milky white light on the little ferret's body gradually disappeared.
After waiting for another ten years, the little ferret slowly opened its hazy eyes. Just as it stretched its waist, the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass on its head automatically fell off with its roots.
After the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass matured, it naturally left the little ferret's body. It did not have much effect on the little ferret. Moreover, the drop of Life Essence Milk was not completely used on the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass. It was also very helpful to the little ferret. After waking up from a hundred years of slumber, the little ferret, which was originally very close to the Immortal Emperor stage, directly advanced to the early Immortal Emperor stage.
As soon as the Demon Head Ice Soul Grass fell off, it was sealed by Mao Zhen and taken away. Xiao Lingyu said to the little ferret, "In order to save your life, I've put in a lot of effort. Don't dawdle and quickly recognize me as your master."
The little ferret was a very smart demonic beast. Although it really did not want to recognize anyone as its master and be restricted for life, the current situation was very obvious. It knew that it had no choice. If it resisted, it would only die. Therefore, it obediently nodded and allowed Xiao Lingyu to inject a drop of Blood Soul into its soul.
Since the little ferret had already recognized its master, Xiao Lingyu naturally did not need to imprison it anymore. As soon as it regained its freedom, it jumped to Qing Xuan's side. Because Qing Xuan's side was very cold, and the little ferret liked the cold environment, Xiao Lingyu did not carry it away. He only reminded it not to move around recklessly.
After waiting for more than a year, Mao Zhen sent his disciple over to say that he was ready to start refining the divine pill.
"Brother Xiao, stay here and take care of Qing Xuan. I'll go over and watch that old thing refine the pill."
After saying this, Elder Peng left with Mao Zhen's disciple.
Xiao Lingyu did not understand much about the Dao of Alchemy. Even if he went to watch, he would not be able to see anything. Therefore, he stayed by Qing Xuan's side with peace of mind.
A few days later, Xiao Lingyu suddenly felt a thin and heavy pressure pressing down from the sky. When he went outside to look at the sky, his expression changed drastically. This was because there were dark clouds gathering in the sky above the valley and forming a huge vortex. There was even the sound of thunder rumbling from within.
Dark clouds gathering in the sky was not an unusual sight. However, the dark clouds quickly formed a vortex, and a terrifying pressure came from within. This was not an ordinary sight.
When he saw that there was a circle of Yin and Yang fish in the middle of the vortex, he could not help but exclaim, "It's a tribulation cloud!"
"That's right, it's a tribulation cloud. The divine pills or divine tools refined in the Immortal World all need to be baptized by the heavenly tribulation. This is the divine pill tribulation. Only after passing the divine pill tribulation will the divine pill be qualified to exist in this world." Elder Peng had returned at some point and was standing beside Xiao Lingyu as he explained.
"What if it can't pass the tribulation? Wouldn't this divine pill be refined for nothing? "Xiao Lingyu asked nervously.
"Yes."
Elder Peng nodded and comforted him, "Generally speaking, the divine pills or divine tools refined by the alchemists will be able to pass the heavenly tribulation. After all, this kind of heavenly tribulation is much weaker than the divine tribulation that cultivators have to go through to ascend to the Immortal World."
At this moment, a fist-sized bead that was shining with a cold white light flew into the air and was under the terrifying heavenly pressure.
It was obvious that the white bead was a divine pill that had just been refined. However, it needed to be sucked in by the heavenly tribulation before it could successfully form into a true divine pill.
"I have refined the divine pill. The rest depends on your luck." At this moment, Mao Zhen also came to the side and said with a pale face.
It seemed that refining this divine pill had consumed a lot of Mao Zhen's energy.
"Brother Xiao, don't worry. More than eighty percent of the divine pills refined by the alchemists of the Wonderful Pill Sect can pass the divine pill tribulation." Elder Peng was not very nervous.
"Hehe, Peng Ba is right. However, if you encounter the twenty percent failure rate, you can only blame it on your bad luck. It's not that I didn't try my best. When I was refining the divine pill, Peng Ba was watching at the scene," Mao Zhen said with a smile.
There was nothing wrong with saying the ugly words in advance. However, before the divine pill tribulation began, Mao Zhen had already begun to shirk his responsibility. This made Xiao Lingyu feel very uneasy. After all, Mao Zhen was forced to come out of seclusion by him and was unwilling to refine this divine pill. It was hard to guarantee that Mao Zhen did not have any ill intentions.
"Brother Xiao, don't be reckless later. This divine pill tribulation is the same as the tribulation of cultivators. Outsiders cannot help. Otherwise, not only will the power of the heavenly tribulation double, but the person who helps will also be targeted by the heavenly tribulation." Elder Peng seemed to be worried as he transmitted his voice to Xiao Lingyu. This was because he knew that Xiao Lingyu would not allow this divine pill to be destroyed by the heavenly tribulation.
"Elder Peng, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Although Xiao Lingyu replied in such a way, he had already made up his mind to protect this divine pill no matter what.
Boom!
After the divine pill tribulation's tribulation cloud had been brewing for a long time, a silver thunderbolt was sent down.
Xiao Lingyu could feel that the power of this silver thunderbolt was comparable to the full force attack of a Supreme Celestial Artifact.
The silver thunderbolt blasted on the divine pill, causing it to be instantly wrapped in silver electric current. Its body trembled violently and shrunk at the same time.
The silver electric arc disappeared. The divine pill was not destroyed, but its body had shrunk to the size of an ordinary egg. It looked more solid.
Boom!
Not long after, another golden thunderbolt struck down from the sky. Its power was a little more powerful than a Quasi-Divine Artifact, but it could not be compared to a real Low-Grade Divine Artifact.
This strike also landed accurately on the divine pill. Circles of golden electric arc wrapped around the divine pill. Xiao Lingyu was extremely nervous.
After the golden electric arc disappeared, the divine pill continued to tremble in mid-air. This time, it did not immediately shrink again. Instead, it showed signs of expanding.
