Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 165 Blood Awakening Pill

“I know you’re not joking, senior sister, but one thing at a time. Tie Dan should only take what he’s entitled to for the furnace job; too much isn’t good.” Chen Beiwu shook his head slightly, his gaze fixed on Tie Dan.

Tie Dan was also very clever and instantly understood Chen Beiwu's meaning.

I've benefited a lot from my senior's care.

It can agree if it wants to, and refuse if it wants to refuse; there's no need to let them offer an outrageous price.

After a moment's hesitation, Tie Dan decided to follow his heart.

"Wang."

The fire element in the alchemy hall is abundant. Even if it can't consume third-grade precious pills while guarding the furnace, being able to smell the pill's energy and refine the essence of fire is still very beneficial to its cultivation.

Moreover, Senior Sister Wan'er has profound cultivation. With her guidance, his cultivation level might soon surpass that of the Golden Egg.

The only thing that Tie Dan was reluctant to leave was that guarding the furnace required him to be away from his master for about half a year.

Having received the answer, Chen Beiwu nodded to his senior sister: "Tiedan agrees. I hope you will take good care of it during this time."

"Don't worry, junior brother, I will definitely raise Tie Dan to be plump and healthy." Senior Sister Wan'er smiled and patted Tie Dan's head.

Wow, she's a genius!

Tie Dan is a dog; he won't betray the temple master.

With Tie Dan in charge of watching the furnace, she could sneak out of the sect to wander around whenever she had free time, without having to guard the furnace herself.

If there's nothing else to do, you can use Tie Dan as an excuse to invite Junior Brother Chen to dinner.

"Gulu."

Looking at Tie Dan's reluctant figure, Jin Dan's eyes brightened slightly.

Very good. After the sycophantic minister left, the master was left with only one loyal minister.

Chen Beiwu was also somewhat moved.

Tie Dan is too ambitious; at such a young age, he already knows how to work hard and cultivate his skills.

Fortunately, the Alchemy Hall was not far from the sect, so he could visit Tie Dan anytime he missed him.

……

Time flies, and five days have passed in no time.

In a side hall of the alchemy hall, seventy-two cauldrons with taotie patterns stand atop the earth vein fire pool.

In the center of the side hall, a black dog with jet-black fur and paralyzed hind legs lay conspicuously on the ground.

"call!"

Seeing that the earth fire inside the cauldron was not intense enough, Tie Dan opened his mouth and spat out flames to heat it up.

Once the cauldron reached a certain temperature, it stopped spewing fire and yawned boredly.

Seemingly hungry, Tie Dan leisurely turned around and buried his head in the medicine basket beside him, devouring the food.

Upon witnessing this scene, the surrounding alchemists couldn't help but marvel.

"What an intelligent hound! Not only does it know how to read fire, but it can even concoct medicine!" someone exclaimed.

A pharmacist dressed in moon-white brocade with a gourd hanging from his waist smiled and said, "This is the spirit dog that Fairy Yunwan brought back. It's normal that it knows how to refine medicine."

"Indeed, Fairy Yun Wan is a third-grade high-quality alchemist. Even a casual pointer from her would be enough to benefit this spirit dog immensely."

Listening to the discussions around him, Gu Chun sighed inwardly.

She finally managed to win over Senior Sister Shuyou at great cost and successfully entered the Alchemy Hall to become one of its members.

Unfortunately, her alchemy skills were limited, and she was not valued by the head of the Alchemy Hall.

Normally, he could only stay in a corner of the side hall to refine pills and earn contribution points, and he had no way to ask the second-level high-grade pill refiners in the hall for advice.

As a result, a beast that had only recently joined the Alchemy Hall was able to climb on her head and even receive attention from the hall master, who fed it with fire-attribute spiritual medicine.

That’s the benefit of having a background!
"Phew." Gu Chun let out a sigh of relief.

There were more than one alchemist in the Alchemy Hall who envied the treatment the black dog received, but no cultivator dared to make things difficult for her.

The reason is simple: no alchemist dares to bear the wrath of Fairy Yunwan.

At that moment, the surrounding alchemists all changed their expressions slightly and began to seriously refine pills.

Gu Chun also realized what was happening. While focusing on refining pills, she secretly glanced at the entrance of the side hall out of the corner of her eye.

The alchemists in the alchemy hall usually liked to dawdle. When they became serious, it meant that a leader had come to inspect their alchemy work.

'Such abundant fire-type spiritual energy!'

As soon as Chen Beiwu stepped into the alchemy side hall, his brows furrowed slightly.

Whether it was the fiery aura brushing against his skin or the fiery poison permeating the air, it all made him instinctively feel uncomfortable.

"Chen Zi'ang?"

Upon seeing the newcomer's appearance, Gu Chun was stunned for a moment, and then she witnessed an unbelievable scene.

"Junior Brother Chen, this way please," said Hall Master Sun.

As the head of the Alchemy Hall's Stone Refining Hall, he shouldn't have been so enthusiastic towards a disciple.

Unfortunately, Junior Brother Chen has an extraordinary background and a close relationship with Fairy Yunwan, and he is an old man who is about to retire.

To avoid being forgotten after leaving office, he could only cultivate connections with members of the sect during his tenure, leaving some legacy for his family's descendants.

"Wang?"

Sensing Chen Beiwu's presence, Tie Dan immediately straightened up and headed straight for the side hall gate.

"Be careful."

Chen Beiwu squatted down, letting Tie Dan jump into his arms.

Five days had passed since I last saw Tie Dan. His cultivation level hadn't changed, but he had gained quite a bit of weight.

It seems that Tiedan has been doing well during this time; he worried for nothing.

"Senior Brother Chen."

Gu Chun keenly sensed that this was a great opportunity to show off in front of Hall Master Sun, and decisively stepped forward to greet him.

"Junior Brother Chen, do you know each other?" Hall Master Sun asked with curiosity.

He knew Gu Chun.

This newly entered Qi Refining female cultivator has a special physique and possesses a jade-like spiritual body, making her suitable for dual cultivation. She has attracted the attention of many cultivators in the sect, including one who is a quasi-true disciple.

Chen Beiwu truthfully replied, "Junior Sister Gu and I were cultivators who entered the sect in the same batch."

Hearing this, Master Sun felt relieved.

Very well, since Gu Chun and Junior Brother Chen don't have a close relationship, then he doesn't need to be caught in the middle and put in a difficult position.

Thinking of this, Hall Master Sun nodded to Gu Chun and led Junior Brother Chen to the Vice Hall Master's alchemy room, leaving Gu Chun standing there in a daze with a complicated expression.

……

"Junior brother, you've arrived!"

Upon seeing Chen Beiwu, Li Wan'er's eyes lit up, and she waved for Hall Master Sun to leave.

The latter wisely excused himself and closed the door to the alchemy room.

"Junior brother, would you like to learn alchemy? I can teach you." Li Wan'er grabbed Chen Beiwu's hand and pulled him to a large cauldron.

This alchemy cauldron is over nine feet tall, with three legs that resemble the claws of a dragon, deeply embedded in the earth fire, exuding extraordinary power. It is clearly a third-tier magic weapon that only a Golden Core cultivator can refine.

Chen Beiwu politely declined.

With the college entrance examination retest about to begin, he will need to go into seclusion to accumulate liquid magical power and master the Seven Revolutions Qi Refining Method. He will not have time to study alchemy.

His reasons for coming to the Alchemy Hall were twofold: first, he was worried about Tie Dan; second, he wanted to ask Senior Sister Wan'er for a high-quality pill so that Jin Dan could successfully advance to the second realm of a minor demon.

After all, the Fusion Pill only increases the probability of a breakthrough by 40%, which is not safe enough in Chen Beiwu's eyes.

"Premium Blood Awakening Pill?"

Upon hearing her junior brother's purpose, Li Wan'er frowned slightly, her gaze unconsciously drifting to the golden egg on Chen Beiwu's shoulder.

"Junior brother, are you buying the Blood Awakening Pill to combine with the Spirit Fusion Pill and the Flood Dragon Blood Pill to help the Golden Egg advance to the Foundation Establishment stage?"

Chen Beiwu nodded.

Blood Awakening Pill is relatively uncommon. It is a second-tier high-grade spiritual pill created specifically for spirit beasts to break through the Foundation Establishment stage. It can increase the success rate of advancement by 30%, but its effect is not as good as the Spirit Fusion Pill.

However, the most mysterious aspect of this elixir lies in its residual medicinal power.

Even if the Golden Egg fails to advance to the second realm of Lesser Demon after consuming it, it can still preserve its foundation and recover from its injuries with the residual medicinal power of the Blood Awakening Pill, preventing damage to its bloodline and leaving hidden injuries that could lead to failure in the college entrance examination retest.
