NOVPUBChapter 241: Chapter 177 The Secret Realm Appears_1
Two days later…
In the alchemy room, a fragrance wafted from the Four Symbols Furnace, quickly filling the entire alchemy room.
Lin Tianming was overjoyed and hastily lifted the lid of the furnace, only to see five pills, intermingled with shades of green and red, lying at the bottom.
He stored the pills in a jade bottle, then took out two to carefully compare. The results showed that the pills from both batches were identical, each one saturated with color, indistinguishable from the description of the Dragon Bone Pill.
From three sets of materials, two successful batches yielded ten pills; both the success rate and quantity of pills were quite impressive.
Lin Tianming let out a long sigh of relief, then tidied up the pill refining room, and moved on to the cultivation chamber.
Sitting on a meditation mat in the cultivation chamber, he closed his eyes to regulate his breathing until he reached his peak condition, then opened his eyes.
Lin Tianming then took out a Lingshen Pill and, without hesitation, swallowed it.
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, he began to channel his energy to refine it, and the power contained within the pill started to flow through his meridians, bringing on a familiar sense of pain.
Sweat began to seep out of Lin Tianming’s forehead; clenching his teeth, he quickly swallowed a prepared Dragon Bone Pill.
The moment the Dragon Bone Pill was ingested, he started to refine it. Within a few breaths, the energy from the Dragon Bone Pill was gentle, like stepping into warm water, the comfortable sensation slowly suppressing the pain in his body.
“This improved Dragon Bone Pill really works.”
Lin Tianming was ecstatic, and he then started to fully operate his cultivation technique, refining the potency of both the Lingshen Pill and the Dragon Bone Pill.
As the speed of refinement increased sharply, the power of the Dragon Bone Pill took effect, suppressing the pain from the Lingshen Pill while also improving his physique.
Crackling sounds came from inside his body.
He extended his Divine Sense to observe the energetic flow of the pill’s potency quicken within him, eventually seeping into his skin, bones, and organs.
A unique sensation reached his mind, and simultaneously, assisted by the pill, his sinews and bones began to strengthen until they became more solid and powerful.
Lin Tianming couldn’t contain his delight, and he retracted his Divine Sense, wholeheartedly devoting himself to cultivation.
Several days later, Lin Tianming opened his eyes and a smile spread across his face, his heart trembling with excitement.
The effects of the Dragon Bone Pill were truly unexpected; it not only perfectly suppressed the pain during cultivation but also further strengthened his body, surpassing the Body Strengthening Pill by quite a margin.
Just one Dragon Bone Pill had made his physique stronger by a notch, an outcome he had never anticipated.
However, on reflection, the Dragon Bone Pill was hard to come by and quite valuable. The spiritual medicine materials used in a single batch were worth hundreds of Spirit Stones, and more importantly, a Second Order Qingxu Snake Demon Core was valued at over a thousand Spirit Stones. Hence, for this batch of five pills, the cost per pill was several hundred; such an effect was actually to be expected.
Currently, with nine Dragon Bone Pills and over ten Qiuxing Fruits remaining, he wouldn’t lack resources for cultivation for a few years.
Regaining his composure, Lin Tianming closed his eyes and resumed cultivation.
Months later…
At the southern border of the Wei Kingdom, near the boundary with Jingzhou’s Huangyang Kingdom, a sudden ear-splitting rumble echoed from a colossal canyon.
The ground shook violently, fissures spreading for several miles around the valley, eventually giving way to a flash of golden light, followed by the sudden appearance of a barrier of light.
This scene unfolded simultaneously across the vast expanse of land straddling the border between the Wei Kingdom and Huangyang Kingdom.
The Whirlwind Mountain Range, located at the border of Jingzhou’s Huangyang Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom, and only a thousand miles from the Luoyun Mountain Range of the Wei Kingdom, is a rarely populated and lawless region.
The same upheaval occurred here as well, the ground splitting open as a barrier of light emerged.
At that moment, the nearby cultivators quickly detected the disturbance and all rushed towards its source.
A middle-aged cultivator at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining flew on a sword towards the heart of the Whirlwind Mountain Range.
This man was named Li Zhen, a Loose Cultivator who had spent years roaming between the Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World and the Huangyang Country Cultivation World.
Upon noticing the commotion, he was certain that a treasure had emerged and flew straight toward the interior of the Whirlwind Mountain Range without hesitation.
In no time, he reached the vicinity of the newly formed light barrier.
By then, over a dozen Qi Refining Cultivators had gathered, all cautiously observing the barrier, hoping to discover something from it.
All the cultivators present were of the Qi Refining Cultivation level, with limited experience, and were unable to discern anything about the sudden appearance of the light barrier.
Among the crowd, a cultivator at the Sixth Level of Qi Refining became impatient. With a single-handed seal, he unleashed a blast of Sword Qi at the barrier.
“Clang…”
With a resounding bang, the Sword Qi rapidly rebounded upon hitting the light barrier, hurtling back towards the cultivator who released it.
The cultivator let out a scream; unable to dodge in time, his arm was severed by the rebounding Sword Qi.
He turned pale and his face revealed a look of terror; had he not shifted his body just in time, he might have fallen right there.
With this earlier example set, everyone else was afraid to act rashly.
Seeing Li Zhen arrive, the assembled Qi Refining Cultivators stepped back and showed a wary expression.
Li Zhen looked at the light barrier here and, thinking of the rumors of a secret realm opening in the Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World, swiftly concluded that this was indeed the opening of a secret realm.
However, seeing the vigilant eyes of the crowd and the injured cultivator, he did not betray any unusual reaction.
Casting another glance at the cultivators present, he no longer paid them any attention and flew away on his sword, disappearing from their sight.
