"Condense!"
Along with Xiao Dong's low shout falling from his mouth, the wildly churning energy within the fire cauldron suddenly calmed down!
A pool of thick spirit liquid, carved like jade and exuding a dazzling emerald-green light and rich medicinal fragrance, rippled slightly in midair and hovered just above Xiao Dong's palm!
The medicinal fragrance diffused, and a deep breath caused the meridians throughout the bodies of the three young women present to emit a pleasant and joyful hum!
The divine artifact of Battle Through the Heavens, the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid, was complete!
The jade bottle flipped, and Xiao Dong gathered all the medicinal liquid gleaming with emerald-like purity in midair into it. The rich medicinal fragrance lingered within the valley, refusing to disperse for a long time.
"Although ten-thousand-year high-rank soul beasts have never been born on this Douluo Continent, using the heart-blood of these beasts as a substitute and refining it for a mild medicinal effect can be considered quite exceptional."
Feeling the warm and surging medicinal vitality of life within the bottle, Xiao Dong whispered inwardly to himself and nodded with a trace of satisfaction.
More importantly, under the smelting of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame's almost unreasonable and divine purification might, all the mottled impurities and residual toxins within the medicinal liquid were completely evaporated and annihilated.
The Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid, which originally only counted as a second-rank in the Dou Qi Continent, now possessed a medicinal effect in this batch that was almost comparable to an ordinary Third-Rank Pill, worthy of being truly flawless and perfect in every sense!
Withdrawing his focus, the corners of Xiao Dong's mouth curled up slightly, and his playful gaze slowly swept toward the three young women ahead.
Yet when encountering Xiao Dong's slightly teasing gaze, Wu Feng, who had previously clamored the most, saw her fiery and alluring pretty face turn into a ripe red apple in practically an instant.
Not only did her earlobes turn so red they were almost dripping with blood, but even those long and beautiful legs that usually acted with such haughty disdain were tightly and anxiously pressed together at that moment, wishing she could bury her head directly into the deep, turbulent cleavage upon her chest.
Upon recalling that so-called bikini bet she had made earlier, if she really had to change into those few strips of cloth in front of this brat, Wu Feng might as well just find a block of tofu and smash her head into it!
However, embarrassment aside, upon sniffing the rich medicinal fragrance in the air that caused all her bones and joints to let out joyful hums, whether it was Xiao Xiao, the dignified and exquisite Ning Tian, or the red-faced Wu Feng, the autumn-water-like eyes of all three young women were eagerly fixed upon the jade bottle in Xiao Dong's palm.
That kind of thick, life-bearing medicinal power possessed an almost fatal temptation for them, who were currently at the Soul Grandmaster stage!
"Heh, didn't someone earlier speak with absolute certainty that this young master was just bragging blindly? How come at this moment, those eyeballs are practically about to drop into this young master's bottle?"
Xiao Dong toyed with the warm jade bottle in his hand, cast a sideways glance at the lowering-headed Wu Feng, and his tone was filled with banter.
Hearing Xiao Dong's unsparing mockery, Wu Feng bit her silver teeth in vexation. Though she initially wanted to retort, she knew she was in the wrong and could only resentfully puff out the astonishingly full and plump curves on her chest, letting out an indignant huff.
"You... you stop acting so smug here! Even though this prescription was yours, the vast overwhelming majority of the precious medicinal materials inside were gathered only after our Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect emptied out a branch treasury. Don't tell me you actually plan to swallow the whole thing by yourself?!"
Faced with Wu Feng's lacking-confidence question, Xiao Dong merely laughed off-key and shook his head, simply too lazy to bother much with this hard-mouthed little red-haired wild horse.
His gaze shifted slightly, landing upon the adorable young woman nearby who was gazing at him with eyes full of adoration while swaying her two dark-green twin tails. A gentle smile lifted the corners of his mouth as he gently beckoned to her.
"Xiao Xiao, come here."
Hearing Xiao Dong's call, a shy blush instantly flashed across Xiao Xiao's delicate, china-doll-like little face.
Under the subtle and shifting influence of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, the young woman's heart had long since ceased to hold the slightest bit of wariness or resistance toward Xiao Dong, instead filling with a hard-to-sever attachment and adoration.
Xiao Xiao took small, hurried steps and walked up to stand before Xiao Dong in an extremely docile manner, her little hands tightly twisting her green skirt as she called out in a soft, gentle voice.
"Big Brother Xiao Dong..."
Xiao Dong smiled slightly, extending an arm to naturally wrap around the young woman's slender, soft, and impossibly delicate waist, pulling her into his embrace in one fluid motion.
Xiao Xiao's delicate body trembled slightly, and her entire person crashed solidly into Xiao Dong's wide and warm chest, her large eyes swimming with moisture as her eyelashes blinked gently.
Xiao Dong lowered his gaze to study the young woman's cherry lips that were close enough to touch and as tender as dripping water, signaling with his eyes.
The young woman was exceptionally clever; how could she not understand Xiao Dong's intentions? At once, her maiden heart began to beat wildly like a frightened fawn, and her snow-white cheeks grew as brightly colored and moving as if brushed with rouge.
After a slight moment of struggle and hesitation, Xiao Xiao finally closed her bright, clear eyes, rose up on her tiptoes, and actively pressed her own soft and sweet little lips against Xiao Dong's thin ones.
Warm fragrance and soft jade entered his arms; between lips and teeth, there was nothing but the sweet and fragrant aroma unique to a maiden of tender years. That green yet submissive sensation caused Xiao Dong to let out an involuntary sigh of praise, his large hand smoothly stroking across the young woman's slender and smooth back as he tasted that trace of sweetness with extreme aggressiveness.
"Mmph..."
Xiao Xiao's delicate body went soft, her little hands gripping tightly onto Xiao Dong's lapels as she nearly lost her footing.
"Whoa... Th-they're actually kissing?!"
Upon seeing this scene from the rear, Wu Feng's pretty eyes instantly widened into round circles. She stomped her jade foot in a fit of anger and anxiety, feeling as though her worldview was about to be shattered.
Meanwhile, the young sect master Ning Tian saw her pretty, delicate face turn just as burning hot as a fiery sunset at that moment. Her beautiful eyes swam with a shy luster as she hurriedly averted her gaze, only to find herself unable to resist stealing glances from the corner of her eye at the two figures embracing and kissing.
A moment later, Xiao Dong finally released the pretty, dainty young woman in his arms with a lingering sense of reluctance, pinching her flushed little cheek and saying with a light smile.
"You're quite sensible after all. Rest assured, now that this spirit liquid has been refined, a portion will naturally be left for you."
"Really?! Thank you, Big Brother Xiao Dong!"
Hearing Xiao Dong make such a promise to her face, Xiao Xiao-who had just been kissed until her head was spinning-saw an extreme look of pleasant surprise instantly burst within her large eyes. She even grabbed Xiao Dong's sleeve in excitement and started cheering and jumping about, instantly casting her prior shyness to the winds.
Calming her excited mood, Xiao Xiao blinked her large eyes and stared with some curiosity at the jade bottle in Xiao Dong's hand, asking softly: "Big Brother Xiao Dong, after drinking this jade-like spirit liquid, just how powerful will the medicinal effect be?"
Hearing this question, Ning Tian and Wu Feng on the sidelines immediately pricked up their ears, their beautiful eyes locked firmly onto Xiao Dong, evidently extremely concerned about this matter.
Xiao Dong pondered and converted mentally within his heart.
Back on the Dou Qi Continent, when Xiao Yan first used the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid, he was merely at the Dou Qi stage. That sort of tier basically roughly corresponded to the standards of soul scholars, soul masters, and even soul grandmasters on the Douluo Continent.
Back then, relying on the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid mixed by Yao Lao, every single soaking absorption allowed Xiao Yan to directly elevate his Dou Qi cultivation by more than an entire stage at an unbelievable speed.
Yet today, this bottle of his Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid incorporated the heart-blood of ten-thousand-year high-rank soul beasts, and moreover had undergone flawless purification by a divine artifact like the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame. How could its medicinal power be merely several times stronger than the original version?!
"If calculated according to your current Soul Grandmaster realms..."
Xiao Dong extended three slender fingers, and under the breathless and focused gazes of the three young women, he spoke in a calm and unhurried manner.
"As long as this spirit liquid is diluted in warm water for soaking and absorption, supplemented by the circulation of cultivation methods, within the Soul Grandmaster realm it should be able to burst forth an unhindered, side-effect-free surge of a full three to six ranks of soul power, while also cleansing the marrow and refining the bones to stabilize the meridians and skeletons within your bodies."
