There were no unusual signs of the pill's completion. When Zhou You smelled the medicinal fragrance, Zhou You knew that the pill was nearing completion, with only the final step of condensation remaining.

Finally, after three days of sitting in meditation, he obtained three [Ascension Pills ] with purple patterns.

Once the elixir was complete, Zhou You stood up and pushed open the door to the Alchemy Room, just in time to run into Ning Fengzhi who was arriving.

"Sect Master Ning, what is this...?"

Ning Fengzhi a sigh of relief, "I heard from the servants that you have been in the Alchemy Room for almost a week. Although alchemy is a demanding task, please take care of your health."

If it weren't for the meals they kept providing, Ning Fengzhi been really worried that something might have happened to Zhou You inside.

He was still too worried to think clearly. With Zhou You's current cultivation level, it was impossible for him to have any accidents, and with the heavy security around him, there was no real danger.

"Sir, has the 'alchemy' been verified this time?" Ning Fengzhi asked expectantly.

Although it was the first time he had heard of the "Alchemy Method technique," he had complete confidence in Zhou You, especially after hearing about the achievements Zhou You had made as Pharmacist in the Spirit Hall.

This Alchemy Room was built by him according to Zhou You's instructions, and it has been in use for less than half a month.

Zhou You said he needed to conduct experiments first, then design the prescription, and finally implement and adjust it...

Ning Fengzhi estimated that it would take several months, or even years, to complete the task, and he had anticipated the difficulty of this matter.

He was even worried that if the trip took too long, what would happen if Zhou You wanted to leave Seven Treasure City and return to the Spirit Hall?

Unexpectedly, he was soon stunned by Zhou You's words.

"The elixir is complete. Sect Master, may I ask your daughter to come over?"

"Huh?" Ning Fengzhi's mouth gaped slightly. "It's... finished?"

It's no wonder he had that expression; Zhou You's efficiency was just too high, and it happened without warning.

Ning Fengzhi thought the plan was still in the verification stage, but the other party had already produced results.

However, he reacted quickly and immediately had someone summon Ning Rongrong.

Today, he no longer questions Zhou You; if he says it's done, then it must be done.

In fact, this is also a good thing for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. As long as the problem of the Martial Soul can be effectively solved, the sooner the better.

Soon, Ning Rongrong arrived at the Alchemy Room.

"Dad! Brother Zhou You!" Ning Rongrong greeted him cheerfully.

When Ning Fengzhi saw his daughter, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips, and he felt quite excited.

According to Zhou You's diagnosis, his own potential has reached its limit, and even if he takes immortal medicine, the effect will be minimal. Only a rough gem like Ning Rongrong, who has not yet been polished, has the hope of Martial Soul Evolution to the highest grade.

In fact, Ning Fengzhi did not know that if he could directly consume the Aromatic Silk Beauty, he might still be able to break through the upper limit of his Martial Soul with the powerful medicinal effects of the Immortal Herb, but it was unlikely that he could do so by taking the pill.

However, that would undoubtedly waste the medicinal power of the immortal-grade medicine. His potential has indeed been exhausted, and he has reached the limit in the cultivation of the [Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda]. Even if his Martial Soul can evolve, it can only advance to the Eight Treasures grade at most.

Moreover, if he wants to pass on this Martial Soul, he needs to work hard to have new offspring, which is clearly not what Ning Fengzhi wants.

If he wanted to, he wouldn't have only had Ning Rongrong as a daughter all these years.

The Douluo Continent is jokingly called the "Love Continent" for a reason. Ning Fengzhi was indeed deeply in love with Rongrong's mother; even though she has been gone for many years, he has never considered remarrying...

In this way, Zhou You would have even less reason to reveal the details, thus needlessly adding to people's troubles.

From a purely rational perspective, giving Ning Rongrong the elixir would undoubtedly be more valuable.

Zhou You led the father and daughter into the Alchemy Room. Although the furnace fire had been extinguished, the room temperature was still somewhat high.

Zhou You and Ning Fengzhi both possessed cultivation, so they didn't feel anything amiss. However, Ning Rongrong only stayed for a short while before breaking out in a light sweat.

"Feeling unwell?"

Hearing the sound, Ning Rongrong quickly looked over and saw Zhou You looking at her from the side.

A slight blush rose to her face. "No... no."

"Just bear with it a little longer; this environment will help you absorb the medicine."

Ning Rongrong's Soul Power was insufficient, and she was still a little short of being able to refine the medicinal power on her own. The residual warmth of the fire in the Alchemy Room could accelerate her metabolism and help her quickly digest the pill.

Ning Rongrong nodded repeatedly. She knew her place; as long as she obeyed, that was the right thing to do.

Ning Fengzhi remained silent, his heart filled with both excitement and trepidation.

The entire Alchemy Room was laid out according to the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) layout. Zhou You had Ning Rongrong sit down on the futon in the [Kun] position.

While the Douluo Continent doesn't have a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) theory, the Pre-Heaven Bagua still offers guidance here.

Zhou You sat down in front of Ning Rongrong and taught her how to pose with her Five Hearts Facing Heaven. Ning Fengzhi stood quietly to the side without saying a word.

Instead of rushing her to take the pill, Zhou You first guided Ning Rongrong to calm down, gently helping her to settle her mind.

Ning Rongrong closed her eyes as he instructed. She heard his gentle voice and felt her father's familiar presence beside her, which filled her with a sense of security and calmed her anxiety.

Seeing this, Zhou You calmly used the [Calming Mind Mantra]. As a disciple of the Mystic Sect, he naturally knew this Arts.

The focus of the [Calming Mind Mantra] is not on the content of the mantra, but on how the sound of breath can lead the listener into a deep state of meditation that only Otherworldly Being can reach.

This level of skill is difficult even for seasoned Soul Masters to reach in many situations.

But under Zhou You's guidance, Ning Rongrong quickly succeeded. Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi didn't dare to breathe loudly, only watching intently, marveling at Zhou You's methods.

Although Ning Rongrong was only Soul Scholar, Ning Fengzhi had already taught her the family's Meditation Method. When her mind entered a meditative state, the Soul Power in her body was circulating rapidly according to the Meditation Method.

The Ning family's Meditation Method is quite unique. In addition to relying on mental energy to guide vital energy, it also involves breathing exercises. Therefore, Ning Rongrong would unconsciously open her mouth and inhale and exhale air every now and then.

Zhou You seized the moment when she was breathing, and while chanting the [Calming Mind Mantra], he flicked the Ascension Pill between his fingers. The pill silently entered the girl's mouth and instantly transformed into a ball of Primordial Qi that entered her body.

Ning Rongrong was completely unaware, but the medicinal effects had already quietly followed the circulation of her Soul Power, permeating her limbs and bones, and the transformation of her Etheric Body had begun silently.

Suddenly, a seven-colored halo appeared on the girl's body, and a delicate little tower emerged, its glass-like body covered with a faint golden light.

Under Ning Fengzhi's excited gaze, the seven-story glazed pagoda suddenly grew another layer, and then another.

Nine floors! It really is nine floors! Ning Fengzhi almost cried tears of joy!

However, after the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was upgraded to Nine-Story Glazed Tile Pagoda, it had exhausted all the medicinal power of the elixir, and the golden light on its body had faded.

Zhou You nodded secretly. It seemed that his calculations were spot on; one pill was just enough to upgrade the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

That's what it means to make the most of resources.
