"I didn't …" Su Yin's face reddened as he hurriedly shook his head.
"You heartless brat! If not for my rules, do you think that you would have been able to woo a Holy Maiden like Shangguan Wanqing? Did I make you feel wronged by her? "
Song Yu was on the verge of exploding from rage.
He really couldn't understand how someone as formidable as him could raise such an old-fashioned student.
Wasn't it a good thing to have a few more girlfriends?
Putting aside the Celestial World, there were countless people in the world who would be envious of him!
"That's not it. I'm just worried that … I won't be able to control myself and cause unnecessary trouble," Su Yin explained.
"What trouble can there be? At most, you'll have a few more girlfriends, boyfriends, or beast friends! That's nothing at all. How can a heartless person become a Saint? "
"However, you possess the cultivation of a Half-Saint, so my power of rules won't be able to affect you. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being too weak!"
Song Yu harrumphed. "Alright, let's cut the crap. Old Wei's lingering will is getting weaker and weaker. He's already starting to assimilate the saint body. If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to save him!"
"Yes!" Su Yin looked at his sea of consciousness and saw that Wei Boyang laoshi's lingering will had become even weaker than before. His face immediately turned grim.
At this moment, he finally understood that the reason why their cenotaph was able to gather lingering wills was because they had occupied the Great Dao. Once they did, their lifespan would truly be limited.
In other words, once Wei Boyang laoshi's lingering will dissipated, he would be dead for good.
"Let's begin!"
Zhang Xuan turned his gaze back to the medicinal herbs before him. They were all at least ten thousand years old, and the spiritual energy they harnessed was so concentrated that it felt as if it had materialized.
"This is the accumulation of the Frigid Cloud Sect over the years …"
Wei Hanyue said. "It can be used to forge the Saint-tier Saint Spirit Pill, but … it's only enough for one portion of the pill."
"Saint Spirit Pill?"
"Consuming it can help a cultivator resolve their inner demons. It has miraculous effects on Half-Saint pinnacle cultivators, and … it's even effective on Saints," Wei Hanyue said.
"Of course, it's only a legend. Ten thousand years ago, when the Pill Sage was still around, there was no one who succeeded. Even Mo Yuanfeng and Yin Ruohai were unable to do it."
Seeing that she had given him such a difficult problem, Su Yin's face was full of helplessness. He took a deep breath and took out Song Yu's leg bone.
Since he had to possess the strength of a Half-Saint in order to successfully forge it, there was nothing for him to worry about.
Holding the leg bone in his hand, Su Yin immediately felt a strong Saint Spirit Qi enter his body and spread throughout his body. In an instant, the area of the Taiji diagram lit up.
Creak! Creak!
Energy filled his entire body, and his appearance changed. He became more exquisite and three-dimensional. His eyes were deep and emitted an intoxicating light.
"It's this kind of temperament …"
Fairy Hanyun's eyes blurred. She looked like a love-struck fool.
Wei Hanyue had only heard of the term 'Casanova' from other people. She had always thought that her heart was calm and steady, and even if she encountered someone like that, she would be able to withstand it. But now that she saw the changes in Su Yin and the strength he exuded, her heart couldn't help trembling. She hurriedly closed her eyes, not daring to look any longer.
He was afraid that if he looked at it a few more times, he would sink into it and never be able to get rid of it.
Su Yin could feel the Immortal Energy in his body surging endlessly, like a raging wave. He gently clenched his fist.
Kacha!
The space around his palm began to collapse. In an instant, light and darkness alternated. A powerful force formed a storm that drew all of the spiritual energy within a radius of several hundred meters toward him.
"This is what true strength looks like …"
With a sigh, Su Yin exhaled and his eyes lit up.
It was only at this moment that he realized how frightening his physical body was.
If it had been anyone else, even an average Half-Saint, they would have exploded on the spot. Yet, he was able to control it perfectly. In fact, even when he wasn't using it, not a single strand of energy would leak out. How terrifying!
"Every single occupation has to undergo nine trials to grasp the Great Dao. After which, we'll transfer the slot to you, and the world will reward you with a unique energy. This energy has been filtered by the Immortal World, so its effects aren't too great. However, it's still extremely nourishing for you!"
Seeing through Zhang Xuan's thoughts, Yang Xuan explained. "As such, your physical body and soul must have reached Half-Saint pinnacle. In fact, you might even be on par with some low-level Saints. That's why you're able to withstand this energy without any problems."
Su Yin nodded.
While he was able to control this energy with his physical body, his cultivation was still too weak. He would still be affected by the laws of the world, such that his words and actions would go out of his control.
With a light chuckle, Su Yin raised his hand, and the medicinal herbs before him immediately flew over and landed on the flames not too far away.
He drove the flames to refine the medicinal herbs.
Even though Zhang Xuan was forging pills, regardless of whether it was his movements or his demeanor, they seemed to conform to the will of the heavens. It was flawless, and there was not the slightest flaw to be found. Coupled with his altered appearance, it was hard for anyone to control themselves just by looking at him.
Hu hu hu!
The fish in the water floated up one after another, but due to Zhang Xuan's concentration, they forgot to breathe, and eventually, they suffocated to death. The birds in the sky also plummeted to the bottom of the river for the same reason.
"Is this the prowess of the Casanova?"
Wei Hanyue swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Even though Little Yu 'er's fighting prowess is the weakest among the Ancient Sages, there's no doubt that he's the most charming one. As long as he drives the power of laws, putting aside women, even men won't be able to withstand his charms."
Recalling the grand occasion ten thousand years ago, Fairy Hanyun could not help but look at Zhang Xuan in awe. "Back then, countless Quasi-Sages and divine beasts died for him …"
"Ah …" Wei Hanyue's lips twitched.
In the past, if someone were to tell her that a man was so handsome that another man could not help but fall in love with him, she would have thought that it was nonsense. However, at this very moment, she was a hundred percent certain of it.
"Wan-er … you sure have good taste!" Her eyes were filled with envy.
To be able to fall in love with such a person, even if it did not bear fruit, she would still feel that her death was worth it.
Unaware that the influence of the Casanova would be so great, Su Yin was fully immersed in his pill forging state at this very moment.
Step by step, he refined the medicinal herbs and purified the medicinal herbs. There was not the slightest mistake in his movements, and his control was impeccable.
Those medicinal herbs that had gained sentience were even willing to release their medicinal properties just by looking at them. It was hard to tell whether this was due to the prowess of the Casanova's Art or the fact that his pill forging had become much easier.
"Is the fusion of two Great Daos really that powerful?"
The weakened Wei Boyang widened his eyes in shock.
Even as a Pill Sage, it was not that easy for him to forge pills …
"The fusion of two Great Daos isn't one plus one equals two. Instead, it produces an even greater effect. It seems like our previous conjecture was right!" Yang Xuan nodded.
While they had guessed that the fusion of Great Daos would be powerful, they did not think that it would be that powerful!
With the coordination of medicinal herbs, the extraction of medicinal properties became much easier. It did not take long for more than a hundred ten-thousand-year-old medicinal herbs to be converted into pure medicinal energy. After doing all of this, Su Yin walked up to the Mother-Child Cauldron and touched it lightly.
Hu!
The Mother-Child Frigid Qi Cauldron, which did not belong to him and had yet to be refined, swayed slightly before obediently obeying Zhang Xuan's instructions.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Su Yin sent the medicinal energy he had extracted into the Mother-Child Cauldron, and a blazing flame began to form a pill.
As time passed, the medicinal fragrance grew more and more concentrated. After some time, a massive coiling dragon appeared above the Mother-Child Cauldron.
Following which, the roar of a tiger echoed from the Mother-Child Cauldron. The roar reverberated for a hundred li, and ripples appeared on the surface of the river.
"Roaring Dragon and Roaring Tiger … It's about to succeed!"
Wei Hanyue trembled.
Legend had it that before a saint-grade pill was successfully refined, the medicinal fragrance would gather into the shape of a dragon, and the medicinal energy of the pill would similarly emit the roar of a tiger.
This was the so-called Roaring Dragon and Roaring Tiger!
Initially, she did not hold much hope when she took out the medicinal herbs because the Mother-Child Frigid Qi Cauldron of the Frigid Cloud Sect was a little too weak, and the medicinal properties of the medicinal herbs were barely enough …
Who would have thought that it would actually succeed!
"It's a success, but danger is coming …" Fairy Hanyun said worriedly.
Wei Hanyue looked up and saw that the sky was indeed filled with dark clouds and rumbling thunder.
A saint-grade pill tribulation!
Regardless of whether it was a cultivator, a pill, or a weapon, as long as they exceeded a certain level, they would be envied by the heavens, and a tribulation would descend.
Su Yin looked over as well, and his eyelids could not help but twitch.
The laws of the Celestial World were much stronger than the laws of the Dry Origin World, so the lightning tribulation it formed was much more powerful. Even though it was also composed of the power of lightning, it was dozens or even hundreds of times more powerful than the previous realm tribulation!
If it were him in the Golden Immortal realm, he might have been torn apart by the astral winds before he could even get close, let alone the even more powerful lightning.
Even as a Half-Saint, he still felt his heart palpitating.
"The saint-grade pill tribulation is a sign of the formation of a saint-grade pill, and it's something that you have to go through. It's not too powerful, and it's far weaker than the Sage Tribulation. You don't have to worry about it. All you have to do is temper the medicinal properties of the pill and make it purer so that the energy won't leak out.
You'll be fine. "Wei Boyang quickly sent a telepathic message to Zhang Xuan.
"Alright!"
Su Yin nodded as he continued to exert his strength to control the cauldron.
The Mother-Child Frigid Qi Cauldron seemed to be grateful for Zhang Xuan's recognition, and it desperately drove its strength to suppress the medicinal properties of the pill. However, it was on the verge of collapsing, and creaking noises could be heard from it.
"Come back!"
Seeing that the lightning bolts were growing thicker and thicker, Su Yin knew that he did not have time to waste. He roared and grabbed at the air.
The dragon formed by the pill fragrance was immediately caught in Zhang Xuan's hand. With a flip of his hand, the world seemed to have flipped upside down, and the dragon was shoved into the cauldron.
"Awoo!"
The dragon howled in indignation as it tried to escape, but it was unable to do so.
"The divine pill is the Leakless Golden Pill. If I let you escape, the pill refinement will fail!"
Su Yin raised his eyebrows as he exerted more strength.
Boom!
The Mother-Child Cauldron trembled, and the dragon was completely sealed.
The divine pill was also known as the Leakless Golden Pill. In other words, once the pill was successfully concocted, not a single trace of its medicinal properties would be lost. Even if one placed it right in front of one's nose, they would not be able to smell it at all.
"Open!"
With the return of the pill fragrance, Su Yin flicked his finger, and the lid of the cauldron cracked open. The cauldron inside suddenly spat out a pill the size of a longan fruit.
Now that he was strong enough, he no longer needed Tuan Tangyuan.
Furthermore, the food that Tuan Tangyuan used was very valuable in the Dry Origin World, and it could be used as a supreme pill. However, in the Immortal World, it could be easily found in some Half-Saint clans, so it wasn't too valuable.
Thus, in order to concoct a divine pill, one had to use simple medicinal ingredients and a supreme concoction technique.
With the help of Casanova, Su Yin successfully concocted a divine pill.
Kacha!
The instant the pill was spat out, the lightning in the sky couldn't hold back any longer and struck down. The sky turned dark, and the firmament groaned.
After absorbing the lightning energy, the pill seemed to have come alive. It shone with a dazzling light, and special patterns appeared on its surface, gathering spiritual energy madly.
In the blink of an eye, all the spiritual energy within a thousand miles was sucked dry.
"This is only the Divine Pill Tribulation? How powerful is the Divine Pill Tribulation? "
Su Yin's heart skipped a beat.
No wonder it was so difficult to become a Saint. Everyone would rather have him search for corpses than face the Divine Pill Tribulation directly. In the end, the Divine Pill Tribulation was just too terrifying.
He already felt that he was very strong, but facing the heavenly might before him, he still felt his hands and feet turning cold. He couldn't even muster up the will to fight back.
He really had no idea how the 36 Saints did it.
…
While Su Yin was concocting pills, a huge palace floated in the depths of the Nine Bends River.
This palace could move freely with the flow of the water, and it wasn't fixed in one place. Not to mention those who didn't know where it was, even those who had been here before wouldn't be able to find it the next time they returned.
It was the Nine Bends Palace where Fairy Jiuqu lived!
At this moment, a young man stood in the main hall of the palace with a solemn expression.
"Fairy Jiuqu, I hope you can consider my words carefully. Once Yin Ruohai becomes an Elixir Saint, you won't have a chance anymore. Moreover … I'm sure you know what he's thinking. After becoming a Saint, your days of freedom in the Nine Bends River will end. I'm afraid you won't be able to retain the Ice Soul Freezing Fire in your body!"
The young man broke the silence.
"He has Dao Lord Wuwei backing him, and he has refined half of Elixir Saint Wei Boyang's body. Even if I wanted to stop him, I can't!"
A woman on the main seat snorted.
Fairy Jiuqu!
Dressed in plain clothes, she had a cold and dignified look on her face. She looked to be in her thirties, and her curves were exaggerated to the extreme, revealing a mature aura.
If Shangguan Wanqing was a white lotus flower, she was a ripe peach. Each had their own charm, and there was no distinction between the two.
"Don't worry about Dao Lord Wuwei. Dao Lord Lingyuan and Dao Lord Su Ming will personally restrain him. When the time comes, even if you want to interfere, you won't be able to!"
The young man smiled.
"I can agree to fight for the chance to become a Saint, but shouldn't you tell me in advance what price I have to pay?" Fairy Jiuqu raised her eyebrows and looked at the young man.
"It's so refreshing to communicate with smart people!"
The young man smiled and said, "You don't have to pay too much. You just have to stay in the Lingyuan Sacred Ground for three thousand years and become our sacred ground's imperial apothecary. Moreover, even if you come to our place, you have the final say on what pills you want to refine and how many pills you want to refine. None of us will force you. "
"So simple?"
Fairy Jiuqu frowned. Just as she was wondering if the young man was plotting something, she heard a rumble from above, and the entire palace shook.
"A Divine Pill Tribulation? Someone is refining a Divine Pill? "
Fairy Jiuqu stood up abruptly in disbelief.
