To refine a Ninth-grade Profound Pill, one first had to choose a place abundant in energy. Otherwise, if there was insufficient energy when the pill formed, all the previous steps would have been wasted. Thus, among the several spaces of the Pill Tower, Gu He ultimately chose to refine the Profound Pill within the Medicine Realm.
The Medicine Realm was the place where the alchemists at the Pill Gathering had undergone the second trial. Although it contained some precious medicinal ingredients, they were of little use to people at their level. Moreover, the Medicine Realm had existed for over a thousand years. Even with their constant repairs, its lifespan had nearly reached its limit. Within a century, it would gradually crumble and eventually become a shattered space, assimilated by the void.
So, using it to refine a Ninth-grade Profound Pill before it shattered could be considered making use of waste.
Gu He brought Lei Ying into the Medicine Realm. Upon entering this space, he could sense that the space within was faintly cracking under the aura he unconsciously released. The space here had indeed become extremely fragile.
He deliberately restrained his power, found a mountain peak, and descended onto it.
As for Lei Ying, he followed behind Gu He.
Bringing Lei Ying along was a safeguard Gu He had arranged.
Even if a Ninth-grade Profound Pill caused some commotion when it formed, it would not draw the Nine Profound Golden Lightning. And so long as it did not reach the level of Nine Profound Golden Lightning, no matter how much lightning power came, it would merely be food delivered to Lei Ying. Not only would it not disturb him, it could also strengthen Lei Ying's power. Why not?
