Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 146 The Medicine Saint

Venerable Tianhuo stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Congratulations, Medicine Saint."

The old doctor nodded with a smile, "Congratulations! The feeling of being brought back from the dead is truly wondrous."

"I don't have much to do these days. I need to stay here and watch over Xiao Yan. If you have any more medicinal herbs, please give them to me."

The old doctor chuckled and said, "Now that you've broken through to the early stage of the second-star Dou Sheng realm, and your soul power has also broken through to the Heavenly Realm, after you've become familiar with this body, you can try refining a ninth-grade treasure pill."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jue immediately gave Yao Lao ten portions of the ingredients for the Yuan Zun Pill. Six portions came from Qian Mu Bai Lie, and the remaining four portions were made from the ingredients that Gu Yuan had given him.

Xiao Jue then gave Yao Laowu a portion of the ingredients for the Life-Devouring Pill, also known as the Three-Day Death Pill. After taking this pill, apart from some longevity pills, only the Yin-Yang Twin Flames and the Life-Giving Flame can avert certain death.

However, those longevity pills can only barely extend lifespan; they cannot completely restore vitality.

The old apothecary said helplessly, "Don't you have any medicinal materials for a top-grade eighth-rank pill? Let me practice my skills. With my alchemy skills, making a low-grade eighth-rank pill is a piece of cake. Looking at the medicinal materials you have, you can only gather enough for one Nine-Yuan Treasure Pill."

The old apothecary possessed two volumes of ninth-grade pill formulas, while Xiao Jue also had five volumes of ninth-grade pill formulas left behind by the Yin-Yang Saint. The Nine Yuan Treasure Pill was left behind by the Yin-Yang Saint.

The Nine Yuan Treasure Pill is used to help Dou Sheng experts break through to the next level, but only for low-level Dou Sheng.

With his current cultivation level at the early stage of the second-star Dou Sheng realm, Yao Lao can break through to the early stage of the third-star Dou Sheng realm after taking the Nine Yuan Treasure Pill.

Xiao Jue said, "I'll trouble Elder Yao to help me refine these pills."

As Xiao Jue spoke, he handed eleven portions of medicinal herbs to the old doctor, including three portions of Xuan Yang Pills and three portions of Xuan Yin Pills.

The remaining five portions of medicinal herbs are all top-grade eighth-rank pills, including two portions of Divine Aperture Pill herbs, and three portions of Flame Demon Pure Profound Pill, Holy Demon Pill, and Nine Revolutions Universe Pill herbs.

The Divine Aperture Pill is a pill that helps a half-saint break through a minor realm, but it does not help a nine-turn Dou Zun break through to half-saint or a high-level half-saint break through to Dou Sheng.

The Flame Demon Purifying Pill has the potential to mutate fire-attribute battle qi, thereby enhancing combat power.

The Holy Demon Pill is a pill that allows a Nine-Turn Battle Venerable to directly break through to a Low-Level Half-Saint. It seems to be more effective than the Bodhi Pill, but in reality, after taking the Holy Demon Pill to break through to a Low-Level Half-Saint, one's strength can no longer be improved.

The Nine Revolutions Qiankun Pill has a similar effect to the Nine Revolutions Phoenix Spirit Pill that Xuan Yi gave to Xiao Jue before; its effect depends on the pill patterns formed during the refining process.

If you only have one pill pattern, you can raise your strength to the first level of Dou Zun. If you have nine pill patterns, you can raise your strength to the ninth level of Dou Zun.

After giving Elder Yao a large amount of medicinal herbs for Grade 8 pills and Nine-Yuan Treasure Pills, Xiao Jue left the small valley and returned to the inner courtyard.

After Xiao Jue returned, most people were cultivating in the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower because Xiao Jue had not been back for a long time, except for Yao Yue who was refining pills.

Yao Yue raised her head and asked curiously, "Teacher, why did you and Xiao Yan leave for so long?" The news that Xiao Yan was not in the Xiao Clan had already spread. The reason was simple: Xiao Yan was absent from the Strong Ranking Competition half a month ago.

Although the Fallen Heart Flame has been replaced with that nascent one, Su Qian had already collected quite a bit of Origin Heart Flame, enough to be used as a reward for the Strong Ranking Competition.

"There are some things I need to take care of."

Xiao Jue asked, "How's your alchemy skill?" Yao Yue pouted and said, "Fifth rank... I haven't broken through to the Dou Wang level yet, so I can't become a sixth-rank alchemist."

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 1110 ...

"That's true."

Xiao Jue smiled and sat down next to Yao Yue, watching her refine a Restoration Pill.

"I do have pills that can directly help you raise your strength to the level of Dou Wang, or even Dou Zong, but you are different from Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, and Xue Ni."

Xiao Jue said softly, "Their potential is limited. They just need to improve their strength. With the cultivation techniques and combat skills I gave them, their future strength won't be too bad."

"But I plan to take you to Zhongzhou to participate in the Pill Tower's Pill Gathering. There's nothing wrong with taking pills to increase strength; all alchemists do that. But a sudden increase in strength always has its drawbacks."

"You are an alchemist. If your cultivation level suddenly surges to the Dou Zong level, but your soul power doesn't improve much, it won't benefit your alchemy skills."

Xiao Jue actually thought so too. If he had only thought about improving his strength and ignored everything else, and had asked Yao Lao to refine a Life-Devouring Pill to replenish his life force with Yin-Yang Twin Flames, Xiao Jue would probably have broken through to the Dou Zong level at the age of fifteen.

"Moon understands."

Yao Yue nodded her little head, concentrating on refining the Restoration Pill in the medicine cauldron.

After the pill was completed, Xiao Jue patted her little head and pressed Yao Yue's body in front of the medicine cauldron.

"Next is your training, teacher. Try to be single-minded and refine pills without my interference."

...Yaoyue put on the alchemist's robe specially made for her by Xiao Jue, her pretty face flushed, and went upstairs.

The originally loose alchemist's robe had become much tighter after Xiao Jue modified it, making Yao Yue look adorable and charming.

The neckline features a small V-shaped opening that extends all the way to the chest, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin. The thin fabric at the chest sways alluringly with every step.

The robe had a very high slit at the hem, reaching all the way to the top of her thighs, and her long, snow-white legs with their beautiful curves were clearly visible as she walked.

Xiao Jue walked behind Yao Yue with a wicked smile and arrived at the fourth-floor hall. In the center of the hall was a medicine cauldron, and Yao Yue stood carefully in front of it.

Xiao Jue stood behind Yao Yue, reached out and lifted the drooping alchemist's robe from behind, and slipped his hand inside the robe.

Under Xiao Jue's comforting words, Yao Yue rested her hands on the medicine cauldron and stone platform, looking at the medicinal herbs beside her.

Demonic Desire Vine, Snake Lust Fruit, Silver Dragon Saliva, Illusionary Demon Flower... "Teacher~" Yaoyue whispered, "Like Sister Xiaoyu and the others, Yue'er promised you this, so you have to help Yue'er break through."

After Yao Yue broke through to the Dou Ling level, she took the Three-Pattern Azure Spirit Pill, and in addition to the One Beginning Pill she had taken before, her potential was exceptionally strong. After a period of cultivation, she had already broken through to the four-star Dou Ling level.

Xiao Jue grinned mischievously, "If you can successfully refine the pill, I will help you break through to the fifth-star Dou Ling level."

Despite being unable to refine even a fourth-grade pill due to Xiao Jue's interference, Yao Yue looked at Xiao Jue with a wronged expression, but Xiao Jue was very dissatisfied.

How could a dignified fifth-grade alchemist fail to refine even fourth-grade pills? Naturally, Yao Yue was given a special training session until she was able to refine fourth-grade pills under Xiao Jue's interference.
