"Let's begin refining the Cold Dew Pill."

With a thought, Qin Yang caused the Purple Jade Pill Furnace to float out from the Spatial Storage Talisman. A gentle purple radiance bloomed on the furnace body, and it began to gradually enlarge.

"Rise!"

Qin Yang exhaled softly, forming a hand seal and channeling a stream of Spiritual Power into the pill furnace, causing its lid to float upwards.

"Go."

With a wave of his right hand, Qin Yang drew the Morning Dew Grass from the Cyan Jade Flower Pot into the pill furnace.

The first step in refining the Cold Dew Pill was to liquefy the Morning Dew Grass.

"True Fire, congeal."

Qin Yang formed another hand seal, channeling a ball of True Fire into the pill furnace, initiating the melting process of the Morning Dew Grass.

Now, having advanced to the Immortal Master Realm and acquired Divine Sense, there was no need for Qin Yang to activate the Celestial Eye during alchemy.

A wisp emanated from the center of Qin Yang's brows, enveloping the pill furnace, making its internal state vividly clear in Qin Yang's mind.

Carefully controlling the flame's temperature, Qin Yang transformed the Morning Dew Grass into a mass of green liquid within ten minutes.

Then, with a wave of his hand, auxiliary herbs such as the Cyan Wood Fruit and Heart-nourishing Flower from the White Jade Cold Box entered the pill furnace.

The subsequent steps involved refining these auxiliary herbs and the Fusion Pill process.

An hour later, inside the pill furnace, three perfectly round Cold Dew Pills emanating strands of chill were nurtured into form. The lid opened, and the three Cold Dew Pills floated out.

"Success."

Looking at the three Cold Dew Pills in his hand, Qin Yang's face lit up with joy.

These Cold Dew Pills are miracle elixirs for neutralizing fire poison, and additionally, they have a certain stimulating effect on awakening the Ice Skin Jade Bone Body. Later, I'll give one to Gu You and keep the remaining two for Sister Ruan.

The pill room doors opened, outside stood Elder Gu You, Ling Jianzi, Lei Tong, and others pacing gently, waiting anxiously.

Elder Gu You was especially tense since it all depended on these elixirs to relieve his years-long suffering from fire poison.

As the pill room doors opened, Elder Gu You and the others hurried over.

"Young Master Qin, how is it?"

Elder Gu You's voice trembled slightly, his eyes filled with hope as he looked at Qin Yang.

"Go ahead and consume it."

Qin Yang smiled, tossing a snow-white pill to Elder Gu You.

Elder Gu You caught the pill, gazing at it in his hand, overwhelmed with emotion, tears nearly welling up in his aged eyes, revealing the profound torment fire poison had inflicted on him.

"Take it quickly."

Qin Yang smiled.

"Yes, this old man thanks Young Master Qin sincerely."

After consuming the Cold Dew Pill, Elder Gu You sat on the ground, channeling his Inner Power to absorb the medicinal potency.

The Cold Dew Pill melted instantly upon entry, transforming into a cool medicinal energy that flowed toward Elder Gu You's heart region, swiftly purging fire poison under its influence.

"Phew."

A quarter of an hour later, Elder Gu You exhaled a breath of cool white air, opening his aged eyes filled with overwhelming joy.

Clearly, at this moment, the fire poison remnants of the Sun and Moon Chasing Fire Grass, and the repercussions of True Qi retrogression inside him, had been entirely eradicated.

Rumble~!

With the fire poison eliminated, Elder Gu You's Inner Power circulated more fluidly, causing a surge of vigorous Inner Power to ripple out from him.

Formerly at the First Layer of the Innate Realm, Elder Gu You advanced another minor stage, breaking through to the Peak of the First Layer.

"Hahaha, I've broken through."

Elder Gu You's face was full of joy, after two years of stagnation there was finally a breakthrough.

"Congratulations, Supreme Elder."

Ling Jianzi, Lei Tong, and others also expressed joyous congratulations.

"It's all thanks to Young Master Qin."

Elder Gu You expressed gratitude towards Qin Yang.

"From now on, whatever Young Master Qin commands, we will have no objections."

Elder Gu You declared directly, obviously affirming allegiance, no longer needing to wait for Ling Jianzi, Lei Tong, and four others to break through to the Innate Realm.

"Yes, from now on, Ancient Sword Sect will be a subsidiary force under Young Master Qin."

Ling Jianzi nodded in agreement, showing no objection to Elder Gu You's words, aware that Qin Yang, despite his young age, showcased astounding prowess in array and alchemy, almost otherworldly.

Relying on him would promise a prosperous future for Ancient Sword Sect, otherwise, when Young Master Qin's strength advances further, seeking reliance might no longer be an option.

Qin Yang nodded with a smile, suddenly recalling something while turning his gaze to Elder Gu You.

"Ahem, I do have a matter that requires Elder Gu You's assistance."

Qin Yang lightly coughed, speaking.

"What is it? Young Master Qin, please tell."

Elder Gu You responded.

"I wonder if Elder Gu You could lend me the Fire Spirit Sword for inspection?"

Qin Yang inquired.

Elder Gu You's expression momentarily froze upon hearing this, but he soon made a decision without much hesitation, flipping his right hand to let the Fire Spirit Sword slip from his robe and handed it to Qin Yang.

Upon receiving the Fire Spirit Sword, Qin Yang felt a slight warmth permeate his palm.

The Tang History records that the Fire Spirit Sword was forged from Divine Iron by the ancient Yunqi Country, said to be a divine formation of an Ancient China emperor of virtue.

The Fire Spirit Sword was crimson, with golden patterns intricately carved on its blade, emanating an aura of ruddy golden light, and supernatural patterns adorned its hilt.

Merely touching the hilt, Qin Yang could sense the sword's rich Spirituality.

"Indeed, it's a Spirit Treasure Sword, and it's already reached the middle-grade level of spiritual treasures."

Qin Yang's eyes revealed uncontrollable delight.

The Purple Blood Soft Sword he previously wielded was merely a lower-grade treasure, a stark disparity between grades, thus no surprise that the Fire Spirit Sword could effortlessly sever the Purple Blood Soft Sword.

If Qin Yang could refine this Fire Spirit Sword, his strength would significantly increase; even for cultivators in the Immortal Spirit Realm, this sword was a rare treasure.

Elder Gu You clearly sensed Qin Yang's fondness for the sword. Despite some hesitation, he ultimately relaxed.

"Young Master Qin, that Soft Sword you used before was severed by this old man. You've rid me of fire poison, saving much of my life. If Young Master Qin likes it, this old man shall gift the sword to him."

Elder Gu You declared.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang was visibly pleased.

"Supreme Elder, this sword belongs to the late Senior You ..."

Ling Jianzi's expression subtly shifted, glancing at Elder Gu You.

Elder Gu You, however, shook his head, halting Ling Jianzi's words.

"What is it, Elder Gu You? Does this sword hold special significance for you? It's fine, speak freely."

Qin Yang inquired, puzzled.

Truth be told, while Qin Yang indeed liked the Fire Spirit Sword, he wouldn't take a sword with sentimental value for Elder Gu You, especially since Elder Gu You was no longer an adversary.
