Battle Through the Heavens: Inward Cultivation, Crying Xiao Yan

Chapter 40 The Nameless Soul Technique!

Looking at the reward for raising the proficiency of a first-grade pill to the highest level, Xiao Yang's face was full of surprise.

It's actually the "Complete Collection of Second-Grade Elixir Formulas"!

This is extremely important to him.

Xiao Yang, after all, had no teacher.

Therefore, although he now knows the formulas for all the first-grade pills.

However, he only knew the recipes for a few second-grade pills.

Moreover, it is not yet fully complete.

Because these second-grade pill formulas were all casually recorded in the alchemy notes of that fourth-grade alchemist.

The alchemist only did this as a record, so the alchemy process is not very complete.

A prescription for a medicinal pill contains more than just medicinal herbs.

This also includes the proportions, the temperature during refining, the order in which the medicinal materials are blended, and the temperature during the melting of the elixir.

All of these must be recorded in the prescription.

The alchemy manual only contained some techniques and the order in which medicinal materials were combined.

While these are important, there is another crucial factor: the ratio of ingredients.

If Xiao Yang wants to refine those pills, he will have to figure out the proportions himself.

Although there are subsequent procedures, he thinks it would be easier to work backwards to deduce the proportions.

But what could be easier than directly obtaining the elixir formula?

Without hesitation, he began refining the medicine.

Once your fighting spirit is depleted, use the Foundation Building Elixir.

Soon, time passed, and after refining the last batch of coagulation powder, Xiao Yang heard a system notification in his mind.

[Task: Refine nine portions of Blood Clotting Powder. Reward: Grade 1 Pill Proficiency +1, one Sunflower. Completed. Claim reward?]

"System, claim your reward!"

Xiao Yang silently recited in his mind.

The next moment, some experiences and insights about refining first-grade pills appeared in his mind.

This time, I gained a lot of insights and experiences.

It not only has a few first-grade pills refined by Xiao Yang.

In addition, there were some first-grade pills that he had not refined.

With these experiences and insights, he was confident that he would have a high success rate when refining those pills for the first time!

At the same time, Xiao Yang heard a notification sound in his mind again.

[Task: Improve your proficiency in Grade One Pills to Mastery. Reward: +3 to Pill Refining Technique Proficiency, +3 to Basic Pill Refining Talent, and access to the Complete Collection of Grade Two Pill Recipes. Completed. Claim reward?]

Without hesitation, he accepted the reward.

The next moment, several alchemy techniques suddenly appeared in his mind.

At the same time, he also gained some insights into the alchemy techniques he had used before.

It took Xiao Yang a full half hour to digest these insights.

These newly emerging techniques began to replay in his mind.

With these techniques, his success rate in alchemy might be able to improve even further.

Currently, Xiao Yang's success rate in refining the relatively simple first-grade pill, blood-clotting powder, is around 80%.

Other first-grade pills have a ratio of about 60% to 70%.

Now that the mastery of first-grade pills has been achieved, the mastery of refining these pills can be increased by about 10%!

After mastering the first-grade pill refining technique, he prepared to try refining the Fighter Pill!

However, before that, he needs to get himself in the right state of mind.

The fighting spirit is alright, it recovers quickly.

However, the depletion of spiritual energy is difficult to recover.

After all, he didn't have any soul cultivation techniques.

To restore his soul power, he can only wait for it to recover on its own.

To obtain a soul cultivation technique, one must win the Pill Gathering championship; this is the most explicit way to obtain it in the original work.

and many more!

Just then, Xiao Yang suddenly thought of something!

In the original novel, the first soul cultivation technique Xiao Yan obtained was not the "Taiyi Soul Technique" he acquired at the Pill Gathering!

The first soul cultivation technique he acquired was an unnamed mantra!

Because Xiao Yang traveled through time when he rewatched Battle Through the Heavens, he still remembers the earlier parts very clearly.

But the rest is a bit blurry in my memory.

However, after he broke through to the level of a Fighter, his memory became much clearer.

Now, he suddenly remembered that in the original story, Xiao Yan also had a nameless soul technique!

It seems to be only a few words.

Xiao Yang began to recall with all his might.

His initially hazy memories gradually became clearer as he continued to recall them.

"At the pinnacle of the soul, one must guard the celestial spirit and nourish the soul!"

The next moment, Xiao Yang felt a surge of comfort in his soul.

In addition, he also sensed the spiritual energy around him!

To break through to the Spirit Realm, one needs to absorb spiritual energy into one's soul!

Of course, if one can absorb spiritual energy in the mortal realm, one's spiritual soul realm can also be rapidly improved.

Unfortunately, this anonymous mantra can only evoke a sense of spirituality.

As for absorbing spirits into one's soul, it requires combining it with other soul cultivation techniques.

This mantra is incomplete, so it cannot be used to elevate one's spiritual realm.

Or rather, it's unknown how long it would take to elevate one's spiritual realm using this mantra.

However, it's still perfectly fine for restoring soul power.

Xiao Yang did not hesitate and immediately began to recite the nameless incantation continuously.

"At the pinnacle of the soul, one must guard the celestial spirit and nourish the soul!"

"At the pinnacle of the soul, one must guard the celestial spirit and nourish the soul!"

……

As Xiao Yang continued to recite this nameless incantation, his spiritual power gradually began to recover.

Soon, his spiritual power returned to its peak.

Seeing this, Xiao Yang stopped reciting.

After all, it would take countless years to improve one's cultivation level using this nameless soul technique.

It's better to rely on the system.

and many more!

Xiao Yang slapped his forehead, realizing he had almost forgotten about the system!

With the system around, it might be possible to complete the Nameless Soul Technique!

Without the slightest hesitation, he began to try to establish a mission.

【Task: Cultivate the Nameless Soul Technique (Incomplete) for one day. Reward: Nameless Soul Technique (Incomplete) Proficiency +1】

That's really good!

Unfortunately, perhaps because of its incompleteness, it requires a day of training to complete a single task.

And it needs to be continuous.

That means you need to train for 24 hours.

His days are now fully booked, so he has to take it slow.

Fortunately, Xiao Yang's current soul realm is sufficient to advance him to the fourth-grade alchemist realm.

In other words, he will only need to start trying to improve his soul realm when he reaches the fourth rank.

There's no need to rush until then.

He planned to cultivate after finishing the alchemy, since he could gradually accumulate that time.

Now, let's refine the Fighter's Pill first!

Xiao Yang thought for a moment and then began to create the task.

[Task: Refine eight Fighter Pills; Reward: Ten Nourishing Grasses, one Tier 3 Water Attribute Magic Core, +1 to Grade 1 Pill Proficiency]

He knew that refining the Fighter Pill was difficult, and that he might not need to refine so many to complete the proficiency task.

However, he did not expect that only eight were needed to complete a mission.

He then tried to create another task.

[Task: Refine eighty portions of Blood Clotting Powder or Qi-Restoring Powder; Reward: Grade 1 Pill Proficiency +1, one Grade 3 Wood Attribute Magic Core]

Chapter 41 Fighter's Pill

Eighty portions?

Xiao Yang, who was still puzzled, suddenly realized that his talent for beginner alchemy had improved and immediately understood.

It must be because of the improvement in my novice alchemy talent that it became eighty portions.

Otherwise, there should have been ninety portions.

He thought he needed to upgrade to intermediate-level alchemy talent to continue reducing it.

However, this is for the best.

This will significantly increase the speed at which you improve your proficiency in first-grade pills.

Shaking his head, Xiao Yang stopped thinking about anything else and took out the materials for the Fighter's Pill that he had prepared beforehand.

He now has three sets of Fighter's Pill materials.

This is mainly due to the herb Peiyuancao.

Peiyuan grass is extremely rare, especially in this small place in the Northwest Continent.

Other materials, even the first-tier water-attribute magic cores used as the main material, are easy to buy as long as you have money.

However, even if he had the money, he would have to wait half a month for the Peiyuan Grass to be transferred from the Mittel auction house.

With three sets of materials, he felt he should be able to refine a Fighter's Pill.

He began to recall the information about Dou Zhe Dan in his mind.

The temperature and techniques used in the extraction of each herb, as well as the order, temperature, and techniques used in the melting process.

Xiao Yang had simulated all of these scenarios in his mind several times.

After preparing, he slowly transformed his fighting spirit into fire attribute.

Then, a trace of wood attribute was transformed again.

After adjusting the proportions of the two ingredients, Xiao Yang injected the fighting spirit into the medicine cauldron.
