Bibi Dong Broke Through to Level Fifty! People from Spirit Hall Had Arrived?
The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Steam rises from the Mountain Valley, where milky white and vermilion springs coexist side by side, and the herbs beside the springs gleam faintly in the mist.
Li Qingshan led the two of them around the Herb Garden. He first put the Immortal Herbs and several auxiliary herbs he had selected for Ah Yin into jade boxes, and then stopped in front of an orchid.
The flower was pure white, with eight petals, and a faint fragrance lingered around it, making people feel relaxed and happy.
"Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid." Li Qingshan bent down, examined it carefully, and then took out a jade knife to pluck it whole.
Bibi Dong stood to the side, watching him place the fairy orchid into the box, and couldn't help but ask, "Senior, is this also prepared for Sister Ah Yin?"
"This one was prepared for you."
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong was slightly taken aback.
Li Qingshan looked up and smiled, "Xiao Gang said you've already reached level 49, and he specifically asked me to look for suitable herbs for you."
Yu Xiaogang's ears immediately turned red, and he quickly lowered his head.
Bibi Dong looked at him and then realized that the two of them had been talking in hushed tones behind them earlier about this matter.
But she quickly turned her gaze back to the jade box, gently shaking her head and saying, "Senior, such a precious Immortal Herbs is not something I should accept for nothing."
She had witnessed Yu Xiaogang's transformation firsthand and naturally knew the value of these herbs. She had only accompanied him on this hunt for Soul Ring; she certainly didn't deserve such a generous gift.
Li Qingshan closed the box lid and said casually:
"You've been helping Xiao Gang practice these past few days, and you even went into the Forest with him. The kid remembers your kindness, that's why he came to ask me for help."
"He rarely speaks up for others, so as his teacher, I can't very well refuse."
Bibi Dong was somewhat speechless:
"But..."
"Don't be so quick to refuse." Li Qingshan gestured, "Extend your hand first, let me see your current situation. If it's not suitable, even if you wanted it, I wouldn't give it to you."
Bibi Dong hesitated for a moment, but still extended her hand as instructed.
The next second, a wisp of Soul Power slowly probed into her wrist.
After concentrating for a moment, Li Qingshan noticed that her Soul Power was very refined and that there was no obvious stagnation in the flow of energy in her meridians.
We're really close to level 50.
"A solid foundation; you haven't been lazy in your daily cultivation."
He withdrew his hand and continued, "This Immortal Herbs has mild properties. I will combine it with a few auxiliary herbs to refine it into a pill, which will help you overcome this hurdle."
Bibi Dong glanced at Yu Xiaogang, who was looking at her with expectant eyes, but did not urge her.
A warmth spread through her heart, and she finally bowed respectfully to Li Qingshan, saying, "Then this junior will humbly accept it. Bibi Dong will remember this kindness."
Li Qingshan waved his hand and smiled:
"Let me refine the pills first."
Seeing that the girl no longer refused, he felt a smile in his heart.
If you want to take her as your apprentice, you first need to make her willing to approach you and trust you. Now that you've extended this act of kindness, you'll have the opportunity to continue your relationship in the future.
As for the matter of becoming an apprentice, now is not the time to bring it up.
After gathering the necessary medicinal herbs, Li Qingshan did not leave the Mountain Valley immediately.
He stopped in front of a stone platform far from the spring, set up a Soul Power barrier to keep out the surging hot and cold auras from the outside, and then took out the Xuanling Pill Cauldron.
"You all wait over there, but don't get too close to the spring."
Yu Xiaogang, familiar with the process, pulled Bibi Dong aside and found a clean spot to sit down, saying, "When Master Alchemy, he dislikes being disturbed the most."
Bibi Dong nodded, but her gaze remained fixed on the pill cauldron. She had heard Yu Xiaogang mention it many times, and now she was finally seeing it with her own eyes.
Li Qingshan first slowly extracted the essence from the fairy orchid, and then added several auxiliary medicines into the cauldron one by one.
The shimmering white liquid hung above the flames, surging and churning under the pull of his Soul Power, while several different medicinal energies gradually merged into one.
Bibi Dong was initially just curious.
As she watched Li Qingshan control the heat while separately enveloping and guiding several streams of medicinal liquid, her expression gradually became serious.
She knew she couldn't control her Soul Power like that.
Once, a soft sound suddenly came from inside the cauldron. She subconsciously sat up straight, only to see that Li Qingshan simply raised his hand and pointed, and the churning medicinal liquid calmed down again.
As dusk approached, an even richer fragrance wafted from the mouth of the cauldron.
Li Qingshan raised his hand in a gesture.
A milky-white pill slowly rose, its surface adorned with faint blue patterns, and fell into a jade bottle that had been prepared beforehand.
It's done.
Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately stood up and walked forward, with Bibi Dong following closely behind.
Li Qingshan handed her the pill and said solemnly, "Take it here. I will protect you."
"After the medicine takes effect, circulate your Soul Power according to the cultivation route you are familiar with. There's no need to rush to break through to level 50. Wait until it merges with your Soul Power before attempting a breakthrough."
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong carefully noted it down, sat cross-legged on the spot, and directly put the pill into her mouth.
Before the aroma of the medicine had dissipated, a warm sensation flowed down the throat and into the abdomen, followed by the abundant medicinal power slowly spreading through the meridians.
She steadied herself and guided her Soul Power through repeated cycles. The obstacle she had been unable to overcome before finally began to loosen as the medicinal power continued to integrate.
Yu Xiaogang stood to the side, unconsciously lowering his breathing.
Previously, it was Bibi Dong who watched him absorb the Soul Ring, but now that it's his turn to watch her cultivate, he finally understands the feeling of wanting to help but not daring to disturb her.
Li Qingshan observed the changes within the girl's body and spoke up at the opportune moment, "Absorb it slowly; there's no need to refine all the remaining medicinal power at once."
Bibi Dong slowed down as instructed, allowing the already condensed Soul Power to continue propelling her forward.
Half an hour later.
Her body trembled slightly, and an aura significantly stronger than before suddenly emanated from her!
"Level 50?!"
Seeing this scene before him, Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up, but he still held back from making a sound.
Only after Bibi Dong suppressed her aura and slowly opened her eyes did he smile and ask, "Did you succeed?"
Bibi Dong sensed the abundant Soul Power within her body and nodded vigorously, saying, "I've reached level fifty!"
She originally thought she would need to cultivate for some more time, but unexpectedly, she broke through to the Soul King realm ahead of schedule in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Li Qingshan stepped forward, examined the area for a moment, and nodded slightly.
"The breakthrough went very smoothly. Leave the remaining medicinal effects in your body for slow absorption. Next, you should consider your Fifth Soul Ring."
Bibi Dong stood up and bowed solemnly once again.
"Thank you so much, senior!"
Then, she looked at Yu Xiaogang beside her, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips. "Thank you too."
Yu Xiaogang scratched his head and laughed, "The pills were refined by the teacher; I didn't help much."
Bibi Dong did not refute him, but simply looked at him, her smile growing even gentler.
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Sunset Forest.
A group of Soul Master wearing the Spirit Hall insignia stopped by the roadside.
The leading man, dressed in a platinum robe with exquisite patterns on his chest, was none other than the Platinum Bishop, who had been sent on a mission.
A subordinate hurried back, bowed, and reported:
"My lord, we've confirmed it. The Holy Maiden did indeed enter Sunset Forest with two men, one young and the other a boy, matching the master and disciple described in the message."
When did you go in?
"It's been some time. There's a Coachman waiting for them outside the woods; I've checked his appearance, there's no mistake."
The Platinum Bishop's gaze darkened.
The Pope himself ordered the recall of the saintess; this matter could not be delayed. He glanced at the gradually darkening Forest and raised his hand, saying:
"Leave two men to guard the carriages and horses; the rest of you come with me inside to search."
His subordinate whispered, "If the Holy Maiden doesn't want to go back with us..."
"First, deliver His Holiness the Pope's orders." The Platinum Bishop straightened his sleeves, his voice turning colder, and said, "This time, she cannot linger outside any longer."
As soon as they finished speaking, the group stepped into the forest and quickly disappeared among the interlacing shadows of the trees.
