Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 140 Eight-Grade Eight-Colored Yin-Yang Reversal Pill

As everyone absorbed the essence of their souls, an exceptionally pure power of that essence spread out, eventually coiling around their souls and continuously merging into them.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Li woke up again. At this moment, he felt that his soul was particularly clear, and the spiritual energy in his soul had reached a perfect level. His soul realm should have reached the perfection of the Spirit Realm, and the next step was the Heaven Realm.

However, Xiao Li has not yet reached the threshold of the Heavenly Realm.

When Xiao Li opened his eyes, he found that Elder Tianyin and Tianyinzi had already woken up.

"Elder Su, Uncle Jinyi, have you finished absorbing it?" Xiao Li asked.

"Well, we're lucky. Both my soul power and Yi'er's have successfully broken through to the Heavenly Realm. Heavenly Realm souls, apart from a few old guys in the Pill Tower, there's also Yao Chen who had an accident a few years ago."

"I doubt there are many in the Central Plains who have reached this level, excluding the imperial families, of course. Li'er, I observe that your soul is quite complete; you must have reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Realm."

The old man Tianyin said with a smile, "I never expected that the soul that caused me the most trouble in my cultivation would be broken through so easily. A Heavenly Realm Soul, that means a ninth-grade alchemist!"

Although Elder Tianyin is not an alchemist, how noble is the soul of the Heavenly Realm!

"I didn't expect Elder Su and Uncle Jin Yi to have both reached the Heavenly Realm. Their breakthrough to Dou Sheng will surely be much easier in the future, right?" Xiao Li congratulated them with a smile.

"Indeed, as my soul entered the Heavenly Realm, the injuries on my body could be healed with soul power. Although the efficiency was very slow, it really could heal, even without the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill."

"I am confident that I can completely heal my injuries within ten years," Tianyinzi said, sensing her own soul power.

"Then you should take the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill. Ten years is too long. The Yin-Yang Reversal Pill can not only eradicate your injuries, but also allow you to undergo a transformation."

This transformation might elevate your aptitude to a higher level, allowing you to break through to the Dou Sheng realm more quickly in the future.

Xiao Li still hoped that Tian Yinzi could take the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill, which would not only heal his injuries but also allow him to undergo a transformation. Since entering the Yin Valley, Xiao Li had come to understand how powerful this seemingly sickly middle-aged man had been in his youth.

Becoming a Dou Zun at thirty and reaching the peak of Dou Zun at forty-five—what incredible talent! If he hadn't been ambushed, Tian Yinzi would at least be a Half-Saint now, instead of being stuck at the Eighth-Rank Dou Zun level for so many years.

As time passed, Wang Ming and Su Wanyin awoke one after another, and their souls underwent a qualitative leap, both reaching the pinnacle of the spiritual realm.

"Teacher, our soul power should be enough to refine the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill now, right? Shall we give it a try?" Xiao Li asked.

Wang Ming's gaze was firm: "Okay!"

After the two reached a consensus, they began to refine pills. Xiao Li and Wang Ming sucked all the medicinal herbs on the stone platform into the air, and a ball of pitch-black flame with a hint of white and a ball of dark red flame appeared one after another.

The extraction of medicinal materials has officially begun.

Tianyin Elder, Tianyinzi, and Su Wanyin watched as the master and disciple began refining pills, but soon Tianyin Elder and Tianyinzi noticed something was wrong.

"Dad, Xiaoming and Xiaoli should be refining medicinal herbs right now, right? But something seems off. Does a Yin-Yang Reversal Pill really need that many medicinal herbs?"

"I remember preparing two sets of medicinal herbs. Did they extract all of them? Did they each refine one?" Tianyinzi asked, somewhat shocked.

"One pill per person? Doesn't seem like it. Their movements complement each other. Wait! Could they be planning to produce two pills in one batch?" Tianyin Elder said in shock, stroking his beard.

"One furnace, two pills?"

Elder Tianyin took a deep breath: "Naturally, it refers to producing two pills in one refining session. That's a huge undertaking. Even the old guys at the Pill Tower wouldn't dare to do that. These two lads..."

As time went by, the two had refined the auxiliary medicines into powders and liquids of various colors.

"Next up are the Extreme Yang Essence Fire, the Extreme Yin Profound Ice, and the Yin-Yang Lingzhi!"

Xiao Li held out two balls of crimson, brick-like Extreme Yang Essence Fire, two pieces of pitch-black Extreme Yin Profound Ice, and two large black and white Lingzhi mushrooms. They collided together and were then thrown into the Yin-Yang Cauldron by Xiao Li.

Xiao Li and Wang Ming simultaneously increased the power of the strange fire. These materials were extremely rare and possessed extremely high spirituality, so it would take some time to completely refine them.

As time goes by,

Inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron, several strange objects had been refined into a black and white liquid about half the size of a human head, emanating an aura of life and death.

"Next, the Rebellious Blood Ginseng King will have a Soul Crystal!"

With a flick of his wrist, Wang Ming threw two blood-red ginseng roots and the soul crystal, each the size of two fists, into the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

"Add auxiliary medicine!"

Xiao Li reached out and grabbed the previously refined medicinal powder and liquid, throwing them into the Yin-Yang Cauldron!

As several medicinal liquids and powders were mixed, a mass of liquid about one-third the size of a head was finally formed. The color was still mainly black and white, but other colors could be faintly seen in the liquid.

Suddenly, a terrifying energy fluctuation emanated from the medicine cauldron, causing the surrounding space to ripple slowly.

"Next comes the condensation of the core."

Seven days later,

boom!

A deep, resounding boom suddenly echoed through the heavens and earth, and an extremely powerful energy fluctuation abruptly spread out. Immediately afterward, the clouds above the sky condensed like lightning.

"The pill lightning has been triggered! This means that the alchemy was successful. This is the characteristic of the Yin-Yang Cauldron. Apart from the alchemist himself, no one else can see the situation inside the cauldron."

Moreover, the Yin-Yang Cauldron's unique feature is its ability to seal the medicinal power, and through the balance of Yin and Yang, it can stabilize the conflicts between medicinal ingredients. It truly lives up to its reputation as the sixth-ranked cauldron among the Heavenly Cauldrons!

The old man Tianyin stroked his beard and said that he had seen Wang Ming refine the eighth-grade pills several times. He had also studied how Wang Ming used the Yin-Yang Cauldron. In any case, the cauldron was kept in the Sound Realm, and unless Xiao Li and Wang Ming had enough strength, they could not take it out at will.

When refining pills outside, that eighth-order medicine cauldron will suffice. This Yin-Yang Cauldron is enough to drive many alchemists crazy; it's a heavenly cauldron!

Xiao Li looked up at the thunderclouds in the sky, where, after several churnings, the thunderclouds finally, unsurprisingly, revealed a rainbow of colors.

"It's time to ascend to higher spiritual status, teacher!" Xiao Li whispered.

"Okay, I understand!"

Wang Ming drew the Spirit Ascension Fruit and Spirit Nurturing Powder into his hand, and then volcanic flames burst forth, quickly refining the Spirit Ascension Fruit and Spirit Nurturing Powder into a highly spiritual medicinal liquid.

Seeing that the time was right, Wang Ming sent the medicinal liquid into the Yin-Yang Cauldron!

Boom—

The lightning in the sky seemed to have been stimulated by something and changed again, and then the seven-colored lightning turned into eight-colored lightning.

"Eight-Colored Pill Lightning! I never expected that the two of them would refine such a pill into an eighth-grade, eight-colored pill on their first attempt! They are truly amazing."

"Their alchemy skills are among the best in Zhongzhou," said the Heavenly Sound Elder with a smile.

"Open!" Xiao Li shouted, then slammed his hand on the Yin-Yang Cauldron. A black and white fire dragon flew out of the cauldron, followed by two black and white pills that were carried out by the fire dragon.

As soon as the pill was produced, an extremely rich medicinal fragrance wafted out, invigorating everyone who smelled it.

Xiao Li looked at the two pills in the sky, and soon the two pills turned into a black and white dragon, trying to escape from here.

"It's turned into a pill beast! Where do you think you're going!" Wang Ming stomped his foot and flew into the air. Suddenly, two cold jade boxes appeared in his hands, and he put both pills inside.

"What does Dan Lei have to say next? Does he need my help, or will he use your puppet?" Tianyin Elder asked with a smile as he approached Xiao Li.

Xiao Li's eyes darted around, and he licked his lips: "I'd appreciate it if Elder Su could seal and subdue this eight-colored pill lightning. This kind of pill lightning should be able to be used to refine a good-quality lightning tribulation pill! At the very least, it can summon a six-colored pill lightning."

"Alright! I will take this pill lightning for you!" The Heavenly Sound Elder went directly to the space and used his spatial power to freeze the eight-colored pill lightning in the dark clouds. Then he used his spatial power to compress it into an eight-colored sphere about half a foot in size.

For this first time refining a pill of this grade, grade eight and eight colors are enough. In the original work, when Yao Lao, a high-level half-saint with a Heavenly Realm soul, was refining the Bodhi Pill, he attracted eight-colored pill lightning. I think this Yin Yang Reversal Pill is more than enough with grade eight and eight colors!
