Chapter 42: Top-Grade Azure Origin Pill, Second Layer of Foundation Establishment
Nie Ling slowly introduced the information of the prodigies of the Central Plains.
He was also listening slowly. At the same time, he did not expect there to be so many prodigies in the Central Plains.
Those who were called prodigies all had top-grade spirit roots, and even had immortal bodies.
This made him feel a sense of urgency. Compared to those prodigies, his strength might increase much more slowly.
He could not delay any longer. At the very least, he had to raise his cultivation base to the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage before the Tiandao sect’s grand competition.
He secretly made a decision in his heart. As for the two days of rest that Nie Ling mentioned, he felt that there was no need. He was still in good spirits.
After that, he said to Nie Ling, “fellow Daoist Nie, send the materials for the azure origin pill to the pill room. I’m going to start refining pills.”
“Ah? You’re not going to rest for two days?”
She was stunned. Originally, she was going to let Su Yi rest for two days. However, she did not know that after she told him about the prodigies of the Central Plains, she would actually give him a sense of urgency.
“No.”
He indifferently replied and stood up from his chair, heading to the earth fire room where the pills were being refined.
…
Soon, three hundred sets of azure origin pill materials were sent to the pill room.
Although it was his first time refining a foundation establishment pill, he still activated the furnace and began refining the pill.
[Hint: The temperature is too high, the pill is scrapped, pill refinement has failed.]
[Hint: the temperature is too high, the materials are scrapped, pill refinement has failed.]
[Hint: Refining the pill has succeeded, obtained: Low-grade azure origin pill.]
…
Although this was his first time refining a foundation establishment pill, he had prior experience of refining pills. His success rate was as high as 40%.
This could be said to be extremely shocking in the alchemy world. Who could achieve such a terrifying success rate when refining a foundation establishment pill for the first time?
Three days later…
[Hint: The temperature is too high, the pill is scrapped, pill refinement has failed.]
[Hint: The temperature is too high, the pill is scrapped, pill refinement has failed.]
[Hint: The temperature is too high, the pill is scrapped, pill refinement has failed.]
After failing three times in a row, he frowned. After three consecutive days of pill refinement, he was almost done.
It was very rare for him to fail more than two times in a row. It was at this moment that the pill furnace began to shake.
As if he had thought of something, he controlled his true essence to suppress the pill furnace’s shaking.
Soon, a notification made his eyes light up.
[Notification: Pill refining successful. Obtained: Top-grade azure origin pill.]
Taking out the pill, he looked at the pill in his hand that was emitting a faint medicinal fragrance.
The azure origin pill’s attributes appeared in his eyes.
[Pill: Azure origin pill]
[Grade: Top-grade]
[Effect: Increases cultivation by 500 after consumption.]
[Top-grade: After consumption, foundation establishment cultivation effect + 20 within seven days. Maximum consumption: 500 pills]
[Interval: 7 days]
After looking at the attributes of the top-grade azure origin pill, he placed it into the pill bottle and handed the pills over to Nie Ling to handle.
The days of pill refinement passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, another four days had passed.
At this time, after Su Yi finished refining the last batch of pills, he looked at his harvest over the past few days.
There were a total of 300 sets of medicinal ingredients, and 120 sets of pills were formed.
Among them, there were 60 low-grade azure origin pills, 50 middle-grade pills, and 8 high-grade pills. There were actually two top-grade pills.
He took out ten low-grade azure origin pills from them and then contacted Nie Ling with his seal, asking her to come and retrieve the pills.
When Nie Ling arrived, she saw the eight high-grade pills and two top-grade azure origin pills, and the expression on her face froze.
This man had long overturned her world views, so she was only frozen for a short while before she looked at Su Yi and asked, “fellow Daoist Su, do we need to organize an auction for these eight high-grade pills and those two top-grade pills?”
“No need. We can just use them to promote the shop,” he replied indifferently.
Right now, he had yet to establish his firm footing in the Nie family’s trading firm in the Central Plains, so holding an auction would seem a little superficial. It would be better to use them to guard the shop first.
With these pills, the foundation of the Nie family’s branch in the Central Province would be more stable for a short period of time.
After that, he bade Nie Ling farewell and returned to his accommodation.
He had refined the pills for seven days, all for this preparation for this day.
He took out the Starry Sea Bottle and placed an azure origin pill into it.
Soon, the Starry Sea Bottle lit up with a strange light, and the dim stars in the bottle lit up with a brilliant light, shining with the light of the stars.
The light of the stars turned into a long rainbow in the Starry Sea Bottle, continuously washing away at the pill.
Under the washing of the power of the stars, the color of the pill began to slowly change.
After a long while, the light on the Starry Sea Bottle suddenly dissipated.
The bottle returned to its original appearance.
[Hint: The refining of the Starry Sea Bottle’s pill is complete. 3 energy consumed. Obtained: Azure origin pill (Celestial Grade) x 1]
He took out the pill and looked at the azure origin pill. It had not changed in size. There was only a faint immortal radiance flowing on its surface. He looked at its attributes.
[Pill: Azure origin pill]
[Grade: Celestial-grade]
[Medicinal effect: Increases cultivation by 5,000 points after consumption]
[Celestial-grade: No Limit on the number of times consumed. Consume one pill, and the cultivation effect will permanently +1]
[Interval: 7 days]
Looking at the attributes of this pill, although he was already mentally prepared, the permanent cultivation effect + 1 completely shocked him.
If he increased his cultivation by 5,000, within these seven days, he should be able to break through to the second layer of the foundation establishment stage.
After consuming the celestial-grade azure origin pill, a feeling of fullness arose within his body.
[Hint: Consumed the azure origin pill (celestial-grade), your cultivation increased by 5,000. Permanent effect of cultivation + 1]
Looking at the skyrocketing cultivation on the interface, Su Yi sat up with his legs crossed and began to breathe.
[Hint: You have completed one cycle of five elements foundation establishment technique, cultivation base + 107]
[Hint: You have completed one cycle of five elements foundation establishment technique, cultivation base + 107]
…
In just a few days, Su Yi felt that Nie Ling had come to look for him during his cultivation, but he saw her leave quietly.
Today, he opened his eyes and exhaled slowly.
[Hint: You have completed one cycle of five elements foundation establishment technique, cultivation base + 107]
[Hint: Your cultivation level has reached 10,000/10,000, and you have broken through to the second layer of the foundation establishment realm]
[Hint: You have broken through to the second layer of the foundation establishment realm, strength + 600, physique + 600, inner breath + 600]
Feeling the increase in strength in his body, Su Yi said indifferently, “still, it’s a little slow.”
After consuming the celestial-grade azure origin pill, under the effect of his terrifying cultivation, he spent another seven days on breathing exercises before breaking through to the second layer of the foundation establishment.
If it was an ordinary person, it would take at least two to three months to break through to the second layer.
It could be said that his current cultivation speed was very fast. Without consuming celestial-grade pills, his cultivation speed was comparable to some geniuses with high-grade spiritual roots.
At this time, a beautiful figure appeared outside the door. She quietly opened the door peeked her head in to look at where he was.
“Fellow Daoist Su, you’ve broken through!”
