Blue Emperor Soul-Extracting Pill

Returning alone to the small courtyard in Shrek City, Xiao Yi prepared to refine a pill to enhance his spiritual power. Although his spiritual power far surpassed that of ordinary soul masters, it was only equivalent to the early stage of the Spirit Sea Realm in later generations, comparable to a Soul Saint.

This pill could help his spiritual power reach the threshold of a Titled Douluo, achieving the mid-stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. The effect was undeniably powerful, but it was just too expensive. The medicinal ingredients for this pill were practically priceless outside, and it was only thanks to Shrek's ten thousand years of accumulation that they could withstand Xiao Yi's extravagant use.

It seemed that visiting the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well should also be put on the agenda, Xiao Yi thought. Both the immortal herbs and medicinal ingredients there for improving strength were things Xiao Yi desperately needed.

Pushing open the door and stepping into the spacious courtyard, Xiao Yi went to his usual spot and sat down cross-legged, beginning to refine the pill to enhance his spiritual power.

The Fallen Heart Flame rose, swirling above Xiao Yi's head like a vortex, or perhaps a medicinal cauldron, emitting terrifying heat. However, an invisible barrier firmly contained it within Xiao Yi's vicinity.

One by one, medicinal ingredients were tossed into the flame, slowly transforming into pure medicinal liquid under Xiao Yi's precise control of the flame's temperature.

As before, Xiao Yi condensed his spiritual power into threads, wrapping the medicinal liquid and guiding it towards the converging vortex. Finally, a pill emitting a soft white glow landed in Xiao Yi's palm.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yi swallowed the pill, beginning to refine its medicinal properties.

As the pill entered his abdomen, a clear stream flowed into Xiao Yi's sea of consciousness, slowly strengthening his spiritual power. After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yi opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.

There were no special sensations accompanying the breakthrough in spiritual power, but it was a genuine advancement.

"I wonder if the improvement in spiritual power can also stimulate the transformation of soul beasts," Xiao Yi muttered. His soul ring rose beneath his feet, and the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils appeared in his eyes. Xiao Yi felt a bit regretful; there was no change. It seemed to be primarily linked to physical fitness.

Unfortunately, there were no pills that directly improved physical fitness. Besides soul bones and immortal herbs, there seemed to be no other rapid methods, Xiao Yi pondered.

The methods for improving physical fitness mentioned in his past life memories were few. Excluding the absorption of soul rings, soul bones, and immortal herbs, there were only the gradual effects of body-tempering medicinal liquids and dietary supplements. Even the Body Sect, known for its research in this area, couldn't achieve rapid body refinement. This would ultimately have to be a slow process, but Xiao Yi wasn't in a hurry.

Perhaps he could try tempering his body with exotic flames. Both the Fallen Heart Flame and the Three Thousand Burning Flame had body-tempering capabilities. As his martial soul, the two exotic flames constantly improved Xiao Yi's body subtly. The Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils caused the soul beast bloodline to transform, and the exotic flames improved his body. This manifested as the slow evolution of his soul beast.

This was practically like climbing a spiral staircase by stepping on his own left foot.

This was also why he could directly withstand a 9,000-year soul ring before consuming the Whale Rubber.

However, he had never tried such aggressive body tempering. Fortunately, with the Three Thousand Burning Flame by his side, he wasn't afraid of any mishaps.

Next, Xiao Yi followed the same procedure, beginning to refine the pill needed for Tang Ya's martial soul evolution. The process was slightly difficult but ultimately safe. Extracting the essence from that special Blue Silver Grass almost caused a mishap. There was only this one plant; otherwise, even capturing a Blue Silver King later wouldn't be as good as this one.

A pill, predominantly blue with golden patterns, was placed into a bottle by Xiao Yi. This was considered his first truly self-created pill, and Xiao Yi named it the Blue Emperor Soul-Extracting Pill.

However, he estimated he wouldn't have the chance to refine it again in the future, let alone find the ingredients.

As dusk approached, two graceful figures appeared outside Xiao Yi's courtyard as usual. Not far away, a stealthy pinkish-blue figure was observing from the shadows.

"Damn Xiao Yi, attracting so many girls. See if this young lady doesn't drain you dry tonight," Tang Wutong thought fiercely. She licked her lips, feeling a sense of anticipation.

Even though she was the one who ended up exhausted, she didn't feel tired. Instead, she reveled in it. That feeling was so intense it reached the heavens, making it impossible for her to extricate herself.

Xiao Yi opened the courtyard gate. Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan stood at the entrance, holding lunchboxes.

Tang Ya wore her hair in a playful ponytail, tied with a large pink bow that swayed gently with her movements.

She wore a white puff-sleeved shirt, paired with a pink and black long skirt, which made her eyes appear even softer. The sleeveless black dress outlined her slender waist, and the hem of the skirt featured a frill of pink and white ruffles, with a large matching bow trailing behind.

The small bows on her black over-the-knee socks swayed with her steps. Her pair of pink eyes were bright and captivating, making her entire presence resemble a sweet yet not cloying cherry blossom latte, exuding soft warmth and a unique girlish charm.

Jiang Nannan wore a pair of fluffy white rabbit ears, her long golden curly hair flying freely in the wind. A few spiral curls dangled on her chest, making her smiling face appear even more lively.

She wore a pure white long dress without excessive decoration, which enhanced her ethereal and refined temperament, like a fairy who had descended to the mortal realm.

"Xiao Yi, what are you spacing out for? Let's go inside," Tang Ya said with a playful smile, pulling Xiao Yi inside.

Snapping back to reality, Xiao Yi let the girl pull him along. Jiang Nannan followed the two with a smile into the courtyard.

The courtyard gate slowly closed, leaving only the pinkish-blue figure biting her lip in frustration not far away.

The three sat together as usual, chatting and laughing as they finished dinner.

Xiao Yi took out two Mid-Grade Soul Ascension Pills and handed them to the two girls. Seeing their confusion, Xiao Yi reiterated the effects and origins of the pills.

Upon hearing this, both girls were deeply moved, their eyes welling up with tears.

Given Tang Ya's original talent, her cultivation speed should have been as slow as a snail after reaching the Soul Elder stage. Yet, in just one month, relying on Xiao Yi's Fallen Heart Flame Fire Seal, her soul power had increased by one level.

Jiang Nannan's soul power was currently level 37. With these two pills, she would soon reach level 40.

Speaking of which, Tang Ya was the oldest among the three. She was actually a year older than Jiang Nannan, but her playful and lively personality made her appear younger.

"Alright, Xiao Ya, there's one more thing I need to tell you." As he spoke, Xiao Yi took out the jade bottle containing the Blue Emperor Soul-Extracting Pill and presented it to Tang Ya.

"Xiao Yi, what is this?" Tang Ya asked, confused. However, the aura emanating from the jade bottle made her martial soul restless, as if sensing a great temptation.

"This pill can awaken the hidden power within your Blue Silver Grass," Xiao Yi said with a smile, but only revealed half the truth. Tang Ya, in his arms, turned pale. Had Xiao Yi discovered something?

Jiang Nannan looked on with curiosity. Seeing Tang Ya's reaction, she found it strange. Could there be a problem with Xiao Ya's martial soul? She couldn't help but feel worried.

Seeing Tang Ya's ashen face, Xiao Yi found it amusing. He pinched her small face and said to Jiang Nannan.

"Nannan, I'll be borrowing Xiao Ya tonight. Don't worry."

Jiang Nannan nodded. Although she felt some concern, she trusted that Xiao Yi could handle it. She then got up and left the courtyard.
