At that thought, Li Moxun sighed, but that was all there was to it.
The death of a single clone could not affect him much. At most, he could create a second clone by tomorrow.
Looking at the Soul Guidance Pill Furnace before him, this type of furnace required special consumable materials to burn.
Naturally, he could not do it at the academy, so Li Moxun had no plans to refine pills today.
After a night of cultivation, Li Moxun appeared quite relaxed.
Having come to this era, an era where gods no longer existed at all.
What Li Moxun needed to worry about was his own White King's Will, as well as the problems that might arise from his rapidly increasing spiritual power.
Other than that, as long as he worked steadily and diligently, he could quickly increase his strength.
Under such circumstances, Li Moxun was not under much pressure at the moment, so he remained quite calm.
When the morning class began, Wu Zhangkong did not lecture them this time. Instead, he summarized their experiences in the Spirit Pagoda.
As expected of someone from Shrek Academy, Wu Zhangkong's summary was sensible in every respect.
This was especially true for Xie Xie and Tang Wulin. Both were not weak among those at their level, but they also had the biggest problems.
In particular, the two of them were overly confident in their own strength, which was not a good thing.
However, Wu Zhangkong did not say much to Li Moxun and Gu Yue, mainly because he did not know what he should say.
After all, Li Moxun had performed moderately throughout. He neither joined in nor rushed ahead, yet he followed along whenever danger arose, simply killing a few soul beasts without standing out.
Gu Yue, meanwhile, had handled control from the rear throughout the entire process, seizing opportunities almost perfectly.
After the morning classes ended, Wu Zhangkong unusually gave them the afternoon off to rest, while practical combat training would continue that evening.
Li Moxun did not care much about this kind of practical combat training, but before he could leave this time, he ran into Gu Yue.
Gu Yue looked at him and tilted her head slightly in indication. Her meaning was obvious—she wanted to speak with him alone. Li Moxun did not refuse.
After the two left, they arrived at an empty classroom downstairs. Gu Yue looked at him calmly, a Soul Guidance Ring appearing in her hand.
Li Moxun accepted the Soul Guidance Ring without ceremony.
As his spiritual power entered it, he found some hundred-year spirit herbs inside, along with four Thousand-Year Spirit Herbs and two Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Herbs.
Li Moxun did not recognize the two Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Herbs, but when his spiritual power enveloped them, he could roughly discern their effects.
He looked up at Gu Yue. Her greatest problem at present was her restless state of mind, or rather, that she seemed bound by some very strange feeling.
Li Moxun did not know what that feeling was, nor did he wish to know. He merely looked at Gu Yue calmly.
"It is indeed possible to refine a pill that calms the mind, but I need a location."
"Once the pill furnace is activated, it not only requires fuel, but the aura it releases can also easily draw attention."
Li Moxun looked at Gu Yue as he spoke, his voice calm.
Hearing his words, Gu Yue looked deeply at him. After only a second's pause, she nodded.
Just as Li Moxun thought Gu Yue would take him somewhere secluded, she raised her hand and directly tore open a spatial rift. A stable sensation immediately flowed out from within.
Feeling the space beyond the rift, Li Moxun raised an eyebrow. Gu Yue then stepped inside.
Seeing this, Li Moxun paused for only a second before stepping in after her.
Inside was a vast space, somewhat like a valley. There were no people or soul beasts within, and the surroundings were completely tranquil.
Feeling this independent space, genuine curiosity appeared in Li Moxun's eyes. Possessing such a portable space was extremely rare. He had not expected Gu Yue to have one.
However, Li Moxun did not dwell on it. He sat down calmly and lifted a finger lightly. A pill furnace appeared, or rather, a massive boiler resembling a pressure cooker.
Li Moxun raised his hand, and one Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Herb along with several Thousand-Year Spirit Herbs entered it.
Gu Yue stood there and watched quietly. She did not care that Li Moxun had used only one Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Herb.
As long as she obtained what she needed, she would not concern herself with anything else.
As Li Moxun sat cross-legged, a pure white giant dragon appeared behind him.
The dragon was entirely white, but it was not the pure white of an ordinary White Dragon. It was a grim, pallid white.
Combined with the dragon's golden eyes, that shade of white gave it an extremely eerie feeling.
At that moment, the dragon seemed to possess some degree of sentience. Its gaze was not directed at Gu Yue; it merely lay there quietly.
An eerie aura emerged around it, followed by vast spiritual power spreading out to control and refine the spirit herbs and medicinal ingredients within the furnace.
The medicinal ingredients began to dissolve, turning into streams of melted spiritual liquid that floated quietly inside.
Li Moxun raised his hand and added some spiritual liquid he had obtained earlier.
As power gathered over the pill furnace, refining flames emerged.
The main requirement for this kind of spiritual pill was control through spiritual power. In truth, many people could quickly form a pill.
But the result of forming a pill too quickly was that spiritual power could not be controlled precisely enough, causing the pill to be completely ruined.
However, such a problem did not exist for Li Moxun.
As his power gathered, Li Moxun looked at the pill furnace and lightly raised a finger.
The enormous White Dragon behind him vanished, replaced by the Titan Snow Demon King Martial Soul.
A surge of extreme cold descended. The terrifying heat upon the pill was rapidly cooled in an instant, and as cracks appeared on the pill, Gu Yue stared deeply at Li Moxun.
Just as she was about to ask a question, the cracks in the formed pill split open, revealing a smaller pill within.
Looking at the transparent pill, surprise appeared in Gu Yue's eyes as Li Moxun raised his hand.
"This is the so-called Calm Heart Pill. Taking it can clear your mind. I do not know whether it will be effective in eliminating all your distracting thoughts, but this is already the limit of what I can refine."
Li Moxun's voice was gentle. After speaking, he casually raised his hand and tossed the pill directly to Gu Yue.
Catching the pill, Gu Yue looked at him, her eyes carrying an indescribably profound meaning.
"Thank you. I will remember this favor. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me. I will repay you once."
Gu Yue's voice was gentle and calm, but Li Moxun's expression did not change in the slightest upon hearing her words.
"You can find someone to protect you while you take it, but I hope you will allow me to remain here for a while longer, because I still have some pills to refine."
Li Moxun's voice was calm, and there was a hint of inquiry in his gaze as he looked at Gu Yue.
Outside, he would have to find a training room and figure something out on his own, because refining pills could easily leave traces.
But in this illusory space, there was no one else besides Gu Yue.
