NOVPUB"Boom!"
Inside the Pill Refining Room, myriad patterns on the surface of the Ten Thousand Pill Furnace shimmered with spiritual light, and with a muffled sound, the surface of the Pill Furnace seemed to have a dragon coiling around it, as an imposing aura spread out!
"It’s done... the Earth Dragon Pill!"
A hint of a smile appeared on Su Changkong’s lips, knowing that the Pill Medicine he was refining was now complete.
Su Changkong flicked his hand, and the lid of the Ten Thousand Pill Furnace flew up, releasing seven or eight pills, each a dark color, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.
The Earth Dragon Pill, one of the medicines recorded on the Ten Thousand Pill Furnace, was for body refinement and nurturing blood, and was of the level of Spirit Pills.
A single Earth Dragon Pill was enough for a Body Refinement Martial Artist to reach the realm of Body Refinement Great Achievement!
"The Earth Dragon Pill, after being enlightened by the Transforming Dragon Gate, will be given to those Alien Beasts to consume.
Alien Beasts prioritize physical growth and bloodline metamorphosis, making this type of body enhancement Pill Medicine more suitable for them than Spirit Containment Pills and the like," Su Changkong thought to himself, knowing he had to provide suitable Spirit Pills for the Alien Beasts he was raising.
Alchemy Skill (9 realms, 17% Unparalleled in the World)
The proficiency of Su Changkong’s alchemy was also steadily rising.
Every week, Su Changkong would go out once to the Savage mountain range where the Alien Beasts were kept, quietly throwing the Pill Medicine he had refined near the beasts for them to consume.
Each time he ventured out, he had to visit a hundred places. Although it was time-consuming and laborious, it had to be done this way; if several Alien Beasts were kept on the same mountain, they might kill each other. Since one mountain cannot contain two tigers, they had to be separated.
As for being picked off by others, Su Changkong would patrol every seven days to observe the condition of the Alien Beasts. The places he chose to keep the Alien Beasts were rarely frequented by people, making it not so easy for others to go there.
Moreover, these Alien Beasts, though not a threat to Su Changkong, could be formidable for other Martial Artists to hunt!
One by one, the Alien Beasts grew quickly under Su Changkong’s lavish care. Every seven days, after Su Changkong made his rounds feeding them Spirit Pills, he noticed that every time he saw them, there were visible drastic changes in the Alien Beasts.
The huge yellow ox located in that desolate mountain, with the nourishment of Su Changkong’s Spirit Pills, grew rapidly. In just a short half a month, it reached two taels in length and one tael in height—a massive size.
In the presence of the ox, not to mention the wild beasts of the mountain, even Martial Artists at 90% of the Qi-Blood Realm would be as fragile as thin paper. With a single nudge of its horns, it could send a massive stone weighing ten thousand catties flying!
The black python, after consuming the Earth Dragon Pill, also grew rapidly. A single horn sprouted on its head, and its body, which had been as thick as an arm, was now as thick as a bucket, with scales as tough as iron armor. Even lions and tigers were nothing more than an appetizer to it.
The hundred types of wild beasts Su Changkong selected, under the influence of the Transforming Dragon Gate, had all become Alien Beasts with extraordinary potential. With sufficient resources, they grew at a pace of a thousand li per day, improving every single day!
"The Great Revitalizing Qi Pill, a single one can increase the power of ordinary Martial Artists equivalent to ten years of arduous cultivation... Refine this for Zuo Qiu and the others to consume."
Within the Ten Thousand Pill Furnace, Su Changkong also found Spirit Pills that could enhance internal strength and Cultivation, which he then gave to Zuo Qiu and the others to consume.
Zuo Qiu and a hundred other Innate Martial Artists, also enlightened by the Transforming Dragon Gate, had originally been merely talented Martial Artists but had now turned into top Martial Arts geniuses, each with the potential to become a Five-Qi Grandmaster!
Furthermore, with the help of the Spirit Pills refined by Su Changkong, they too were progressing rapidly in their Cultivation, providing Su Changkong with more and more Mysterious Turtle True Essence.
Originally, it would take about a month to produce a drop of Mysterious Turtle True Essence, then it became one drop every 20 days, and then it improved to one drop every half month. This efficiency kept increasing! The resources Su Changkong invested were all turning into returns, feeding back into his own strength!
All Su Changkong needed to do was to refine pills, occasionally travel to various places to feed the Alien Beasts, gather Zuo Qiu and the others, examine them, and absorb the Turtle Breathing True Qi they had cultivated. All streams returning to the source!
Su Changkong’s foundation was constantly strengthening, quietly awaiting the day of transformation!
And, of course, all this came at a price. The massive amount of Spiritual Medicine that Su Changkong obtained from the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky was rapidly being depleted like a flowing river.
Those Spiritual Medicines represented the foundation of a millennium-old family, capable of nurturing nearly a hundred Martial Artists with Perfection of Innateness. Su Changkong was using them not only to nurture the warriors of Spirit Taoist Sect but also to raise a large number of Alien Beasts, each of which was like a bottomless pit.
Merely one could exhaust the accumulated resources of an ordinary Warrior Sect, let alone raising so many. Such extravagance was simply jaw-dropping, something not even the royal family of a nation could afford!
Additionally, of course, there was the Transforming Dragon Gate whose accumulated energy was being rapidly depleted.
The divine skill ’Dragon Transformation’ of the Transforming Dragon Gate could not be used without limits. Every use would deplete the accumulated energy within. Once the energy was exhausted, it could be quickly replenished with Dragon Qi, otherwise, it could only slowly absorb Spiritual Energy to recover.
But for Su Changkong, whether it was the abundance of Spirit Grass and Spiritual Medicine, or the Transforming Dragon Gate itself, they were all instruments for his empowerment, and there was no need to be frugal!
Time passed, second by second, and life was very peaceful.
The Life Extinguishing Association had essentially been wiped out. In his last battle with Su Changkong, Qin Miesheng fought to mutual destruction. Although it was suspected that Qin Miesheng did not die, with only a Monster Soul perishing, there must have been some issue with him; otherwise, he would have outright killed Su Changkong back then. Now, there were no movements from Qin Miesheng’s end.
