Chapter 486: Refining the Tianxuan Essence Consolidation Pill

    Chapter 486: Refining the Tianxuan Essence Consolidation Pill

    "Senior, you must be gathering these medicinal herbs for alchemy."

    "So, I took the liberty of preparing double the amount for you."

    As Gu He examined the contents of the chest, Ju Su spoke respectfully and attentively.

    "You have been thoughtful. This is your reward."

    Gu He’s expression remained relaxed as he waved his sleeve, sending one hundred and thirty jade bottles flying out, neatly arranging them on the ground before Ju Su.

    "The two black jade bottles contain a seven-grade Dou Ancestor Pill and a seven-grade Breaking Venerate Pill, as a reward for your generosity in providing double the herbs."

    After sending this message via spiritual transmission, Gu He did not wait for Ju Su’s response.

    He vanished into thin air along with the large chest of medicinal herbs.

    "So easily tearing through space and leaving... It seems I was right—he is indeed a Dou Venerate-level powerhouse."

    Ju Su murmured to herself as she stared at the spot where Gu He had disappeared.

    However, in the next moment, as she recalled his parting words, an overwhelming wave of joy surged within her.

    "Two seven-grade pills!"

    "I never expected that such a small act of thoughtfulness would earn me two seven-grade pills!"

    "A Breaking Venerate Pill... Could it be the legendary pill that increases one’s chances of breaking through to Dou Venerate? And the Dou Ancestor Pill—it''s said to directly enhance a Dou Ancestor’s strength by one star. With this, I can advance to nine-star Dou Ancestor, and with the Breaking Venerate Pill..."

    Ju Su’s emotions were running high.

    She swiftly stored away the two black jade bottles before turning to Ju Ming and Ju Xin.

    "Lock these pills in the sect''s treasury!"

    "Yes, Sect Master!"

    Hearing Ju Su’s command, Ju Ming and Ju Xin immediately sprang into action.

    ...

    In the void of space, Gu He had already left Red Chrysanthemum City by several hundred miles after acquiring the herbs.

    He found a secluded mountain range, set up a few protective barriers, and immediately took out his cauldron to begin refining the Tianxuan Essence Consolidation Pill.

    This transaction for the herbs had been a loss-making deal for Gu He, but he didn’t mind.

    Because the significance of this pill was far greater than any financial loss.

    If it weren’t for concerns about drawing too much attention, he would have even exchanged a seven-grade pill for one of the key ingredients.

    The next moment, the large chest of medicinal herbs appeared beside him.

    During these three days, Gu He maintained absolute focus.

    Now, within the rising purple flames of the cauldron, a small, oval-shaped sphere about the size of a fist had taken form.

    This sphere contained the purified essence of hundreds of medicinal ingredients.

    However, at this stage, it was still merely a prototype—far from being a completed pill.

    It would require a period of nurturing before it could truly become the embryonic form of a pill.

    Although this was Gu He’s first time refining an eighth-grade pill, his mind was filled with countless successful instances of its refinement.

    After nurturing the pill for some time, the oval shape gradually became a perfect sphere.

    A rich and potent medicinal fragrance began to spread from within the cauldron.

    Now, it was worthy of being called a pill embryo.

    What followed was the most critical step—Dan Thunder!

    Only by withstanding Dan Thunder could this become a true eighth-grade pill.

    In the world of alchemy, eighth-grade pills were already among the pinnacle of existence.

    Although there was only a single grade difference between seventh-grade and eighth-grade pills, the gap was truly as vast as the heavens and earth.

    Eighth-grade pills possessed a form of sentience and even a rudimentary level of intelligence.

    In other words, an eighth-grade pill was imbued with its own life force!

    At this level, it could be considered a living being.

    Furthermore, the categorization of eighth-grade pills was extraordinarily precise.

    Their quality could no longer be judged by appearance alone, but rather by the color of the Dan Thunder they attracted.

    The higher the pill’s quality, the more colors its Dan Thunder would exhibit during formation.

    It was said that if a pill could summon nine-colored Dan Thunder, it would mean the pill had ascended into the legendary ninth-grade realm, possessing the power of true creation itself.
