" Pill Profound Realm?"
Upon hearing Master Qing Li's words, Xiao Yan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. The shock in his voice was that this person was able to control this strange state, and judging from the current situation, the other party was not just making empty threats.
"Hehe, not bad. This wondrous realm is a state that I comprehended after countless attempts to enter the Pill Soul Realm. Although it differs slightly from the true Pill Soul Realm, it still possesses about 80-90% of its effectiveness. However, this method is different from ordinary secret techniques. If it is to be passed down, it can only be formed by the gathering of Pill Qi. Therefore, I stored it in this Pill Sea Illusion Realm. This can be considered a bit of my selfishness, after all, I do not want my achievements to ultimately fall into the hands of an ordinary alchemist."
Seeing the look on Xiao Yan's face, Master Qing Li chuckled with a hint of smugness. A sly glint flashed in his illusory old eyes. However, when these words reached Xiao Yan's ears, they shook him to his core.
For alchemists, the Pill Soul Realm is an extremely rare and precious opportunity, something that many grandmasters can only regard as a legend. Yet, this old man before them was able to use a special secret method to create the Pill Profound Realm, which was almost identical to the Pill Soul Realm. How could Xiao Yan not be moved by this?
"Enough, there's no point in saying more. Once this wisp of my remnant will is released, it won't last even a moment. I just wanted to see what kind of person would ultimately inherit this bit of my legacy. It seems my luck isn't bad after all, hehe..."
The old man spoke slowly, his somewhat blurry eyes falling on Xiao Yan, giving the latter a feeling that he had been completely seen through.
"Take two steps forward."
Master Qing Li waved lightly at Xiao Yan, who was startled at first, but then fearlessly approached the old man's illusory figure.
The other party was, after all, merely a remnant of his former self. No matter what extraordinary abilities he possessed in life, what could he possibly do to him now?
The old man didn't do anything beyond Xiao Yan's expectations. He simply picked up the Soul-Guiding Incense in front of him and performed several hand seals. The Soul-Guiding Incense immediately became somewhat ethereal, and within this illusory space, wisps of white mist drifted out from somewhere and quickly condensed on it. Master Qing Li then gently touched the Soul-Guiding Incense to Xiao Yan's brow, Soul-Guiding Incense gradually merged into Xiao Yan's brow. At the same time, the white mist that had formed around him also entered Xiao Yan's body.
"Buzz!"
Xiao Yan's eyes widened, his pupils sometimes showing pain and sometimes showing surprise. After nearly a quarter of an hour, the changes in the surrounding sky finally calmed down. Xiao Yan suddenly shook his head, his eyes flickered a few times before returning to clarity. The moment he looked up, the illusory image of the old man in front of him had completely disappeared.
Looking at the empty illusionary space before him, Xiao Yan paused for a moment, then nodded and sighed, bowing respectfully to the space.
"Junior Xiao Yan is grateful for Senior's guidance and will certainly not tarnish Senior's reputation!"
The resounding voice gradually spread, and after a moment, Xiao Yan stood up straight, regained his composure, and looked around at the space in front of him again, finally fixing his gaze on the thin surface of water beneath his feet.
Through the inheritance of Master Qing Li, Xiao Yan learned the true nature of this illusion.
With a thought, a Soul Power shrouded in a gray mist shot from between Xiao Yan's brows into the water beneath his feet. Immediately, the once calm water surface suddenly boiled, and thick white mist continuously rose from it, instantly filling this illusory space. In that white mist, a pink fluorescent light stood out conspicuously.
It was none other than the Fragrance-Nurturing Pill that Xiao Yan had placed into the illusion!
With Xiao Yan's current understanding of this illusion, he naturally knew that the previous illusory body was formed by the Fragrance-Nurturing Pill. Who would have thought that the opponent in this illusion would actually be someone the intruder himself had sent in? Fortunately, the appearance of Master Qing Li made Xiao Yan realize that this seemingly fierce illusion was actually connected to him, and that the Pill Profound Realm was actually able to restrain this illusion, which saved him a lot of trouble. After all, Xiao Yan had personally experienced the strangeness of the previous illusory body.
However, compared to Xiao Yan's situation, the people in the other illusions are probably not having such an easy time.
With no time to think about others, Xiao Yan had something else on his mind that he was eager to try.
Xiao Yan sat cross-legged in the void, his eyes half-closed. After a short while, as his mind calmed down, a very special invisible ripple spread out in his mind. This was the mysterious secret technique that Xiao Yan had just obtained: the Pill Profound Realm.
Although the Pill Profound Realm is merely a special secret technique used to assist in refining pills, with Master Qing Li's guidance, Xiao Yan only now realized that this Pill Sea Illusion Realm actually contained an extremely vast amount of Pill Qi. This Pill Qi would be useless to others using ordinary methods, but the unique feature of the Pill Profound Realm is that it can draw upon the fragrance of pills for its own use. Once he can absorb and refine it, it will be of great benefit to Xiao Yan, who is Tier Seven High-Level Alchemist. Perhaps he can even use this opportunity to break through to the Tier Eight Alchemist.
After the invisible ripples spread throughout the entire illusion, Xiao Yan's thoughts flashed, and the dense white mist seemed to be under some kind of control, rapidly contracting and condensing. At the same time, the still-unsettled water below boiled even more intensely, and the white mist's transformation speed also became extremely fast. Soon, a thumb-sized grayish-white pill condensed one by one from the dense mist.
Finally, the white mist throughout the entire space, along with the puddles on the ground below, completely disappeared, transforming into countless grayish-white pills that filled the entire space.
After doing all this, Xiao Yan opened his eyes, gazing at the pill in front of him with burning desire.
These Pill Qi seemed to condense into the shape of pills forged in the past. It was a pity that those pills, stripped of their original fragrance, had lost the elixirs' inherent Pill Qi. Even the most precious pills had lost their peak efficacy.
After a brief moment of reflection, Xiao Yan no longer hesitated. He extended two fingers and lightly touched his brow, paused for a few breaths, and then shot forward. The Soul-Guiding Incense immediately flew out of his body and stood less than a meter in front of him. Then, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan a series of hand seals and released it. Suddenly, he opened his mouth, and a strong suction force surged outward.
The Pill Qi that filled the entire illusionary space was drawn rapidly towards the Soul-Guiding Incense by its special attraction. The moment it approached the Soul-Guiding Incense, it was suddenly pulled away by the suction force from Xiao Yan's mouth and uncontrollably surged into Xiao Yan's body.
