Qian Chongling shook his head and gave Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile Douluo a disdainful look. "Children, today I shall show you what pill refinement truly is!"
"Now, all of you, go harvest the mature immortal herbs. Follow the methods Yue Guan described!"
Douluo Continent was a world centered on martial souls, where medicinal pills did not exist at all. Thus, Qian Daoliu and the others had no idea what Qian Chongling meant by pill refinement.
Still, their ancestor had spoken, so how could they refuse? The four exchanged bewildered looks, then obediently went off to harvest the immortal herbs.
In any case, if the pills could not be refined, they could simply gulp down whatever remained!
"How do I harvest this singular velvet sky chrysanthemum that looks so much like your martial soul?"
Before Gui Mei stood an enormous chrysanthemum of magnificent purple. Strangely, every petal looked fluffy and exceptionally adorable. The whole flower formed a seamless whole, yet gave off no fragrance. Its central stamen rose more than half a foot above the petals, its tip shimmering with a faint golden glow.
"There are no special requirements for harvesting the singular velvet sky chrysanthemum. Just don't damage the stamen or petals. The roots and stem don't matter," Yue Guan said.
"What about this orchid?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked.
"The eight-petal immortal orchid must be harvested with gold and stored in jade. As long as it is kept in a jade vessel, it will not wither for a thousand years or fade for a hundred generations."
"And this one?"
"Do this and that, and that will do."
While the four were busy, a voice brimming with fury rang out from above the valley.
"What petty thieves are you, daring to touch my medicinal garden!"
The four stopped their work
