"Ten years of heavy snow, a hundred years of wind and frost!"
"Only then can the Nine Lives Grass take shape!"
"Neither condition can be lacking!"
"Once the Nine Lives Grass takes shape, its medicinal power becomes extremely frigid. If swallowed directly, it would certainly injure the meridians with its cold energy. Yet it could be used to refine pills and nurture the qi and blood; only then could its cold energy be condensed into a pill."
Lin Bai explained the medicinal properties of the Nine Lives Grass, immediately causing an uproar.
The first to question him were the elders of the Pill Dao Academy.
"Utter nonsense!"
"The Pill Dao Academy's medicinal canon records that the Nine Lives Grass grows in places of extreme yin, not places of extreme cold!"
"How dare you spout such blatant lies!"
The elders of the Pill Dao Academy began denouncing Lin Bai furiously.
Places of extreme yin and places of extreme cold sounded completely like the same thing.
But in truth, there was a fundamental difference between the two.
A place of extreme yin was one filled with abundant yin energy, while extreme cold referred to a land frozen by bitter weather.
Hearing Lin Bai explain the medicinal properties of the Nine Lives Grass, Gu Yueqing immediately felt confused and said, "But the medicinal canon records that the Nine Lives Grass grows in places of extreme yin."
Lin Bai smiled. "That may be because your Pill Dao Academy couldn't find Nine Lives Grass growing in a place of extreme cold. In order to refine the Human Sovereign Pill, you deliberately cultivated a place of extreme yin within the Pill Dao Academy to grow the Nine Lives Grass."
"That's why the medicinal canon says that the Nine Lives Grass grows in places of extreme yin!"
