East Ridge lay in the southeast of Yunzhou, where the weather remained hot year-round.
Even as the seasons turned and winter arrived, the temperature never dropped too low.
Unfortunately, East Ridge was filled with miasma. The already moderate temperatures instead felt unbearably cold and damp.
Fortunately, most who lived here were Qi Refinement cultivators, all strong and hardy, impervious to heat and cold. At most, they merely felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Third floor of the Scripture Hall.
Chen Mu, dressed in a gray robe, sat quietly at the long desk by the window.
The Hundred Mile Qi Seal enveloped him, keeping the cold wind outside from touching him in the slightest.
He held the Detailed Explanation of Tongxi Baizhang Pill in his hands and studied it carefully. From time to time, he paused to jot down his thoughts and key points in a blank notebook beside him.
Only after quite some time did Chen Mu look up and blink.
"An interesting pill."
This was not his first time studying the Tongxi Baizhang Pill. Unlike the Fasting Pill and Foundation Cultivation Pill, this pill was not meant to be eaten, but worn.
Once refined, the pill generated a Strange Force that automatically enveloped an area two to three meters around it.
Within that range, it could filter and absorb the Poison Miasma in the air, protecting its wearer from harm.
The Poison Miasma refined into the pill was like a collection of samples. The more varieties it contained, the stronger the finished pill's effects and the more Poison Miasma it could absorb and filter. It was a pill with an extremely high ceiling.
At present, the Baizhang Pill only covered nineteen types of Poison Miasma, but that was already enough for its wearer to travel freely through East Ridge.
