"I originally needed to gather a few herbs to refine the Dragon Emperor Relic, but with this mysterious herb's fruit, there's no need for that." Yi Yun's eyes shimmered as he revealed a look of extreme satisfaction.
The Dragon Emperor Relic did not have a fixed pill formula. As long as one had sufficient natural treasures, one could refine it.
Yi Yun's main ingredient was the Abyssal Red Lotus. As for the other herbs he found, they were supplementary herbs. But with the mysterious herb's fruit, the effects of the Dragon Emperor Relic that Yi Yun refined would definitely be different from what he had previously expected.
He planned on using the mysterious herb's fruit as the main ingredient and the Abyssal Red Lotus as the supplementary herb to refine a supreme-grade Dragon Emperor Relic.
Yi Yun already had experience refining the Dragon Emperor Relic once. He had even been used as a catalyst, so it was a walk in the park for Yi Yun.
The surroundings were extremely silent, so Yi Yun did not need to worry about any external interference. He calmed his mind beside the waterfall and began preparing to refine the second Dragon Emperor Relic.
Yi Yun first took out the Abyssal Red Lotus and the other herbs.
After being processed using the Herb Nurturing Technique, the Abyssal Red Lotus had grown from a lotus seed into a lotus flower that resembled a flame. Every petal was composed of dancing flames, the Abyssal Fire.
It looked like a beautiful flower, but if one were to approach it without any precautions, they would be burned to ashes by the Abyssal Fire.
Yi Yun extended his hand and the Abyssal Red Lotus immediately came in front of him. He produced a series of seals as golden lines appeared around the Abyssal Red Lotus, completely sealing the Abyssal Red Lotus's medicinal essence within the golden lines.
Following that, Yi Yun constantly threw out other herbs, either extracting their juices, removing their roots or extracting their essences.
Finally, Yi Yun took out the mysterious herb's fruit.
The surface of the mysterious herb's fruit was covered in dark golden patterns. On careful inspection, these patterns looked like countless Dao patterns that were naturally engraved by the Heaven and Earth.
Yi Yun held the fruit and sensed the medicinal essence within it.
Following that, Yi Yun carefully began forming seals.
Following that, Yuan Qi appeared from Yi Yun's hand like threads and wrapped around the fruit. The dark golden Dao patterns on the fruit lit up as drops of golden liquid surged out of the fruit.
Each of these golden droplets contained boundless Qi and blood. In terms of medicinal strength, they were much more precious than those leaves.
In the end, the fruit secreted a few dozen drops of golden liquid. They floated in the air and then fused together on their own, forming a ball the size of a pigeon egg. It was gilded in gold and dazzling.
This sphere was the essence of the mysterious herb.
Yi Yun looked at the golden sphere and even had the thought of immediately swallowing it.
However, Yi Yun repressed this thought. Refining it into a Dragon Emperor Relic would allow him to bring out its medicinal effects.
"Ascending Dragon Cauldron, rise!"
Yi Yun bellowed as the Ascending Dragon Cauldron flew out. It spun in midair before the cauldron's lid automatically opened.
With a tug of Yi Yun's finger, the processed herbs flew into the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, including the golden ball.
Following that, Yi Yun's palm emitted a flame.
Heretical God Fire Seed!
The Heretical God Fire seemed to have a mind of its own. It flew straight to the bottom of the Ascending Dragon Cauldron and began burning fiercely.
The cauldron's lid closed, sealing all the herbs in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. As the Heretical God Fire burned them, the medicinal essence in the herbs began to be extracted bit by bit before clashing and fusing with each other.
As for Yi Yun, he was fully focused. His psyche observed the situation inside the Ascending Dragon Cauldron as he controlled the Heretical God Fire's firepower.
Gradually, the quiet valley was filled with the sound of bellows. It was as if the entire valley had turned into a furnace, burning with a loud 'hu hu' sound.
This burning lasted for an entire month.
With a clear hum, the Ascending Dragon Cauldron's lid trembled. An indescribable medicinal fragrance emanated from the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.
Flowers immediately bloomed beside the tiny waterfall. There was even a pleasant reverberation in the void.
Yi Yun's eyes lit up as he could not conceal the excitement on his exhausted face.
After a month of meticulous refinement, the second Dragon Emperor Relic was finally refined!
And just as Yi Yun opened the cauldron's lid, a beam of light swept out from within.
Yi Yun extended his hand and exerted a suction force. The space around the beam of light was immediately locked as it was grabbed by Yi Yun.
Within the multicolored light, an indistinct shadow of a dragon was struggling within. Then, the multicolored light revealed its true appearance. It was a sparkling and translucent elixir, but what was surprising was that this elixir was still trembling, like a small heart, as if it had a life of its own.
When a pill was refined to a supreme-grade, it would develop a mind of its own. If such a pill were to escape, it would even cultivate itself into a spiritual item. It would be no different from treasured herbs that had gained sentience.
In fact, pills were the fusion of treasured herbs. They were the true essence of heaven and earth.
The Dragon Emperor Relic had already developed a mind of its own. It was a true supreme-grade divine medicine.
"I just finished refining the pill. It's not suitable for me to consume the Dragon Emperor Relic in my present state," thought Yi Yun.
Some warriors would even burn incense and bathe before consuming treasured herbs. They would only consume them when they calmed down completely.
Although Yi Yun did not need to go through all that trouble, he still needed some time to regulate his breathing.
With the pill refined, Yi Yun's tense mind relaxed. He slowly meditated and spent a few rare days of peace.
Only when Yi Yun felt that he was ready did he slowly open his eyes.
Cultivating in the Dragon Emperor Technique meant that Yi Yun would need to expend large amounts of treasured herbs. And the second Dragon Emperor Relic was only enough for Yi Yun to cultivate in the second level of the Dragon Emperor Technique.
However, there was only determination in Yi Yun's eyes. No matter how difficult it would be in the future, he could refine a third, fourth, or even more Dragon Emperor Relic based on how he refined the second Dragon Emperor Relic.
Without any hesitation, Yi Yun took out the second Dragon Emperor relic and swallowed it in one gulp.
The moment he swallowed it, Yi Yun immediately felt as though he had swallowed a lightning prison.
Violent and devastating energy flowed down Yi Yun's throat into his stomach before exploding in his dantian. Instantly, a surge of energy surged towards Yi Yun's meridians, bones and flesh, as though it was about to shatter his body completely.
Yi Yun's skin immediately turned blood red, and under his nearly transparent skin, one could see his meridians. His blood was like burning magma as it surged through his veins.
At the same time, massive amounts of medicinal essence surged into Yi Yun's meridians.
This feeling made Yi Yun sweat profusely, but at the same time, he felt extremely refreshed.
