Pill Complete, Killing Intent Emerges

"Can I come out now, A-Feng?"

A-Luo spoke from within Qian Yufeng's spiritual world, sounding rather bored.

Although they could share their vision, watching scenery for too long was indeed quite boring.

Qian Yufeng replied, "A-Luo, you can come out. This is quite a special place."

As soon as he finished speaking, A-Luo appeared out of thin air.

She curiously observed the area around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"Wow, A-Feng, how did you find this place?"

"These flowers and grasses smell so nice. They must be delicious!"

After saying that, she flew over to a cluster of Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchids and looked them over from every angle.

This was the flower she found most fragrant.

Qian Yufeng said, "The herbs here have absorbed a vast amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy, so naturally they differ from ordinary medicinal herbs."

He intended to pick four Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemums. With several other supporting herbs, he would be able to refine Wonder Velvet Sky-Cleansing Marrow Pills.

Three would be used for alchemy, while the remaining one would be brought back to Spirit Hall for Chrysanthemum Douluo.

The pills he refined could bring out the medicinal potency of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to the greatest extent.

"The one in front of you is an Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid. Its medicinal properties are gentle, and it can strengthen one's foundation and consolidate one's origin. If a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast absorbs it, it should enhance its own source power," Qian Yufeng introduced.

A-Luo's eyes lit up. "There are so many here. Can I eat one?"

Qian Yufeng smiled. "Of course. I'll pick one for you."

After speaking, he came to A-Luo's side, bent down, and swiftly picked an Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid.

Once he stood up, A-Luo eagerly stared at the flower before stuffing the petals and stamens into her mouth.

In less than a minute, only the bare root and stem remained.

"The medicinal power needs to be expended through Soul Power. Try circulating the power in your body."

Hearing Qian Yufeng's words, A-Luo floated in the air and clasped her little hands together. A faint golden glow radiated from her body.

The medicinal power of the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid also began spreading throughout her body.

Soon, A-Luo opened her eyes, feeling wonderful.

"A-Feng, I feel stronger than before."

"Ah, A-Luo is so sleepy. A-Luo wants to sleep."

As a Soul Spirit, she had actually become drowsy. She then returned to Qian Yufeng's spiritual world.

"Her power should have increased, and her body has grown smaller. She needs time to adapt to the medicinal power."

Qian Yufeng was not worried about A-Luo's condition and began preparing for his alchemy.

With the Alchemy Grandmaster title equipped, he gathered all the herbs he needed in less than ten minutes.

One main ingredient and nine supporting ingredients.

Moreover, his alchemy did not require any pill furnace. He could refine pills directly with Soul Power.

This demanded extremely precise control over Soul Power, but after equipping the title, such techniques came naturally to him.

After arranging the ingredients for the first batch, he released his Soul Power. As though manipulating puppets, he divided it into ten portions and wrapped every herb within them. Then he raised the temperature, refining them into liquid essences.

He had already memorized the ratios required for each medicinal liquid to form a pill. Under his meticulous control, the liquids were once again guided together and fused into pills.

One Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, combined with supporting herbs, could produce eight to ten Wonder Velvet Sky-Cleansing Marrow Pills.

Their effects were also utterly heaven-defying. For anyone at Soul Saint rank or below, they could not only cleanse the meridians and marrow, but even give their Martial Soul a one-in-a-thousand chance of evolving once more.

If a Soul Master with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda consumed one, they would absolutely break through the shackles of their Martial Soul and reach the Nine-Story level!

A peculiar medicinal fragrance spread through the area. The immortal herbs seemed as though they had been showered in sweet dew, swaying happily one after another.

(Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum: Speak up for me!)

Even the Aromatic Silk Beauty and the Aromatic Silk Beauty, these two great immortal herbs, swayed slightly.

There was no other reason. During the pill-refining process, Qian Yufeng had gathered the heaven and earth spiritual energy in the vicinity, allowing them to absorb more than usual.

Qian Yufeng looked at the finished pills and revealed a faint smile.

"Looks like my alchemy skills aren't bad!"

Half an hour passed, and ten pale golden pills patterned with red flower petals took shape.

Qian Yufeng took out the ten jade bottles he had prepared long ago and stored all ten pills inside.

Afterward, he continued refining pills and ultimately succeeded in producing thirty Wonder Velvet Sky-Cleansing Marrow Pills.

The Soul Power he had expended was less than one-tenth of his total.

"Alchemy really feels great when you're cheating!" Qian Yufeng finally experienced what true exhilaration felt like.

He then left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and headed for Dugu Bo's residence.

The purpose of this trip had already been accomplished. It was time to return to Spirit Hall and see whether the problem his dear grandson Qian Xunji had encountered had been resolved.

After arriving at Dugu Bo's residence, Qian Yufeng directly announced his departure. "Dugu Bo, I've been away for quite some time. It's time for me to return."

"Senior, you're leaving so soon?" Dugu Bo had actually wanted to refine a few more pills for Qian Yufeng.

Seeing through his thoughts, Qian Yufeng said, "This place is excellent and has many rare medicinal herbs. Your alchemy skills are still insufficient. When you can free yourself from relying on a pill furnace, that will mean you have truly entered the path of alchemy."

After saying that, Qian Yufeng left with the two maidservants.

After leaving Sunset Forest, Qian Yufeng handed each of the two maidservants a pill.

"These are pills I refined. The cultivation of you two has stagnated for too long. It is time for you to improve."

"After one reaches the rank of Title Douluo, increasing Soul Power requires insight in addition to talent."

"These pills can give you a helping hand and allow you to reach level ninety-five sooner."

Seeing Qian Yufeng give such precious pills to them, the two women hurriedly asked, "Master, have you taken such precious pills yourself?"

They knew that Qian Yufeng had conducted many studies back then in order to break through to Title Douluo.

Their talents had not been outstanding in those days, but under his guidance, they had steadily become Soul Masters, Soul Grandmasters... and Title Douluos.

Qian Yufeng smiled. "These pills are of little use to me for now. After taking them, you two can refine their medicinal power while traveling."

Only after hearing this did Qian Lingxin and Qian Lingsu take the pills.

The pills melted as soon as they entered their mouths and flowed into their stomachs. Once they circulated their Soul Power, the medicinal energy surged directly through their limbs and bones.

The two women sensed the changes within their bodies and were astonished by the pills' potency.

The bottlenecks that had held them back had also begun to loosen.

"Thank you, Master!" the two women immediately said gratefully.

Qian Yufeng added, "Don't rush to thank me. You should find somewhere to wash yourselves first."

As soon as he finished speaking, an unpleasant stench rose from Qian Lingxin and Qian Lingsu's bodies.

The two women immediately frowned. The smell was indeed awful.

They promptly flashed away to search for a river.

After the two women had left, Qian Yufeng turned toward the bushes ahead and said, "Come out. I taught her that breath-holding technique. You may be able to fool Ling Su and Ling Xin, but you can't fool me."
