Battle Through the Heavens: Inward Cultivation, Crying Xiao Yan

You should know that a mid-level storage ring can cost hundreds of thousands, and a high-level storage ring is even more expensive.

Moreover, there is no market for it despite its price.

Xiao Yang simply cannot afford a single Naling now.

Now that there are system rewards, we won't have to search for them anymore.

As an alchemist, he must have been envious of the strange fire.

After putting away the spirit, Xiao Yang began to adjust his state.

He had just used up a lot of his fighting spirit to refine the Lion Flame.

He took out the Foundation Establishment Elixir, dripped a drop onto his body, and began to cultivate.

Before long, his condition returned to its peak.

He couldn't wait to take out the medicine cauldron.

He was preparing to attempt to refine a second-grade Rejuvenation Pill!

The Grade Two Rejuvenation Pill is considered one of the easier Grade Two pills to refine.

Moreover, this thing is very commonly used and is useful for both internal and external injuries.

Xiao Yang planned to refine more so that he wouldn't be afraid of getting injured when he went to the Monster Mountain Range for training.

He began to control the lion flames within his body, channeling them through his meridians into the medicine cauldron.

Although it was only the first time, he was dumbfounded and easily defeated the lion.

With the Lion's Flame present, refining medicinal herbs will be much easier than before, and it will also save on fighting spirit.

Without hesitation, he directly put the prepared medicinal materials into the medicine cauldron.

Although this is the first time these medicinal herbs have been extracted.

However, he already had some understanding of the medicinal properties and pharmacology of these herbs.

It's very easy to extract now.

Chapter 48 The Collapse of the Eight Extremes to Achieve Perfection

Extracting medicinal herbs was easy for Xiao Yang.

But the next step, the fusion of the pills, is not so simple.

The process of fusing second-grade pills is more complex than that of first-grade pills.

Moreover, because second-grade pills contain a large amount of energy, it is quite difficult to combine various medicinal materials together.

Xiao Yang spread his spiritual power around all the medicinal herbs.

He pushed his soul perception to its limit, sensing the medicinal properties and energy within these herbs.

Over time, these medicinal herbs began to gradually blend together.

Xiao Yang carefully controlled the temperature of the Lion Flame.

Just then, as the solution from one herb attempted to merge with the other herbs, the energy within the liquid surged violently.

Xiao Yang's expression was very solemn at this moment. Without the slightest hesitation, he incorporated another clump of medicinal powder into it.

This powder can balance the medicinal properties of the two herbs.

However, this was, after all, his first time refining the Rejuvenation Pill.

The powder was incorporated a little late this time, resulting in a violent energy burst and the Lion Flame surged instantly.

The remaining medicinal herbs were also burned directly.

Xiao Yang wasn't particularly discouraged by the ashes from the failed refining process.

He took out the residue and poured it into the medicinal herb field.

Next, he began the second refining of the Rejuvenation Pill.

Soon, they reached the place where they had just failed.

This time, Xiao Yang learned from his previous experience and seized the opportunity very well.

The three medicinal herbs were almost simultaneously blended together.

Next, he gradually added other medicinal herbs into the liquid in the middle.

Soon, all the medicinal herbs were fully incorporated.

Having completed this step, it can be said that success is almost within reach.

Xiao Yang carefully controlled the temperature of the flames and used his spiritual power to transform the liquid medicine into a pill.

At that moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.

[Task: Refine one Grade 2 Rejuvenation Pill. Reward: Grade 2 Pill Proficiency +1, One Rejuvenation Grass. Completed. Claim Reward?]

Xiao Yang did not hesitate and immediately accepted the reward.

The next moment, his mind was flooded with his experience in refining second-grade Rejuvenation Pills.

Not only that, but also a small amount of experience in refining other second-grade pills.

Xiao Yang was somewhat surprised to find that the proficiency level of the second-grade pill on the system panel was only 2/10 of the beginner level!

In other words, I have improved my proficiency in making second-grade pills a little.

Although it wasn't much, it was still quite good for him.

Without the slightest hesitation, he set up another mission.

[Task: Refine one Grade 2 Rejuvenation Pill; Reward: Grade 2 Pill Proficiency +1, one Qi-Boosting Grass]

Xiao Yang refined five batches of Grade Two Rejuvenation Pills before preparing to rest.

His fighting spirit was exhausted, and his soul power was also greatly depleted.

Because of insufficient fighting spirit, he used his soul power whenever possible, which consumed a lot of his soul power.

Five attempts at refining yielded only three successes.

In other words, this was his first time refining a second-grade elixir today, and he succeeded four out of seven times.

This success rate can be described as very high.

He guessed that it was probably also due to the blessing of a rudimentary talent in alchemy.

Soon, Xiao Yang regained his fighting spirit and spiritual power.

He did not intend to continue refining the second-grade Rejuvenation Pill this time.

This time, he was preparing to refine a second-grade Qi-restoring pill.

This is also a very commonly used elixir.

[Task: Refine one Grade 2 Qi-Recovery Pill; Reward: Grade 2 Pill Proficiency +1, One Grade 2 Fire Attribute Magic Core]

……

And so, Xiao Yang continued refining the ingredients until late at night.

Because he plans to raise his proficiency in second-grade pills to minor mastery today.

Now, there is only one last task left. Before that, he has already refined four Grade 2 Qi-restoring pills.

Without hesitation, he created two tasks.

[Task: Refine one Grade 2 Qi-Recovery Pill; Reward: Grade 2 Pill Proficiency +1, One Grade 2 Fire Attribute Magic Core]

[Task: Increase your mastery of Grade 2 pills to Minor Success; Reward: Pill Refining Technique Proficiency +3]

After setting up the task, he immediately continued refining the elixir.

After failing once, Xiao Yang finally succeeded.

[Task: Refine one Grade 2 Qi-Recovery Pill. Reward: Grade 2 Pill Proficiency +1, one Grade 2 Fire Attribute Magic Core. Completed. Claim reward?]

Xiao Yang did not hesitate and silently recited it in his mind.

"System, claim your reward!"

As a wealth of experience in refining second-grade pills flooded his mind, a system notification sounded again.

[Task: Increase your mastery of Grade 2 pills to Minor Success. Reward: Pill Refining Technique Proficiency +3. Completed. Claim reward?]

After digesting the experience of refining second-grade pills, Xiao Yang directly claimed the reward.

Then, he prepared to begin cultivating his fighting spirit.

However, at that moment, he suddenly discovered that his proficiency in making first-grade pills had actually increased by a little bit on its own!

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It seems that refining high-grade pills, although there are no mission rewards, can still improve the proficiency of low-grade pills!

This is good news for Xiao Yang.

After tidying up the room, he began his cultivation.

……

Soon, several days passed.

Xiao Yang was practicing the Eight Extremes Collapse in the courtyard at this moment.

Although he has spent most of his time refining medicine.

However, he would occasionally practice the Eight Extremes Collapse.

As time went by, finally, a notification sound rang in my mind.

[Task: Practice the Eight Extremes Collapse technique 1200 times while wearing the special arm guards. Reward: Eight Extremes Collapse Proficiency +1. Completed. Claim reward?]

Xiao Yang accepted the reward without hesitation.

A flood of insights about the collapse of the Eight Extremes rushed into his mind.

A system notification sound rang out again.

[Task: Raise the Eight Extremes Collapse skill to Perfection. Reward: Mid-Tier Earth-Rank Combat Technique "Nine Flame Fist". Completed. Claim reward?]

Xiao Yang was still processing his understanding of the Eight Extremes Collapse, so he did not immediately receive it.

I have many insights about the collapse of the Eight Extremes this time.

After his mastery of the Eight Extremes Collapse reached 9/10, he was able to unleash the Eightfold Dark Force.

Now, a large amount of insights into the unification of the eight layers of hidden strength are flooding into Xiao Yang's mind.

It should be noted that the power of the Eight Extremes Collapse is extremely great, significantly stronger than that of ordinary high-level Xuan-rank fighting techniques.

Now, after the fusion of the eight layers of hidden power, it is completely comparable to a low-level Earth-rank fighting technique!

Xiao Yang opened his eyes and walked excitedly to the sandbag.

The sandbag has been damaged by him and now bears many marks.

Before he reached the sandbag, the fighting spirit within him flowed into his hands.

The next moment, Xiao Yang slammed his elbow into the sandbag.

"Boom!"

He actually smashed the sandbag to pieces!

It's important to know that this sandbag fighter is practically indestructible.

However, at this moment, the sandbag was smashed to pieces by Xiao Yang's elbow.

This means that his attack just now was probably comparable to an attack from an ordinary fighter!

Chapter 49 Mid-Tier Earth-Rank Combat Technique: Nine Flame Fist

Looking at the debris and leather on the ground, Xiao Yang nodded in satisfaction.

The combined power of the Eight Extremes Collapse and Eightfold Dark Force is indeed formidable, no less than some low-level Earth-rank fighting techniques.
