1509 Level 4 Advancement Pill
Chi Shuyan took the Golden Lotus back to the villa and prepared to refine the Advancement Pill. She had never refined an Advancement Pill before and had only seen the pill formula in the Mystic Yin Arts. It didn’t seem difficult to refine an Advancement Pill, but it was very important to find a place with abundant spiritual energy to refine it. Because the Advancement Pill required a lot of spiritual energy, Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to waste jade setting up a Spirit Gathering Array. Instead, she took the Golden Lotus directly into her Cosmos Ring to use the Spirit Gathering Array there.
In fact, Chi Shuyan felt that with her current cultivation level, it was fine if she didn’t set up a Spirit Gathering Array since she had enough spiritual energy. However, she only had this one Golden Lotus. If she wasted it for no reason, her heart would hurt terribly, and she wouldn’t be able to explain herself to Fan Yin.
She simply decided to focus on refining the Advancement Pill in the Spirit Gathering Array in her Cosmos Ring. Naturally, she didn’t know that this Golden Lotus had caused a storm in the Fan family.
Chi Shuyan had refined a lot of pills now, so she was quite familiar with refining other pills of the same level. She could control the heat and spiritual energy required.
Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to stand out and refine supreme-grade pills this time. She had now vaguely grasped the rules of the heavens for refining supreme-grade pills, but that was only limited to pills of the same level. For example, it wasn’t difficult to refine supreme-grade level 3 pills and below, but it wasn’t something she could control.
So, when she refined the Advancement Pill, Chi Shuyan did her best to control the heat and reduce the amount of spiritual energy she poured into the cauldron to prevent another batch of supreme-grade pills from being refined. It was just that halfway through, she tried to reduce the amount of spiritual energy she poured into the cauldron, but found that she couldn’t do so at all. Even if she could, the pills themselves were proactively absorbing the spiritual energy around the Spirit Gathering Array, and the pill cauldron spun wildly.
Chi Shuyan’s face changed drastically. She didn’t know what the problem was, so she could only grit her teeth and increase the spiritual energy. She didn’t dare cut corners anymore. If this pill cauldron absorbed all the spiritual energy from the Spirit Gathering Array, wouldn’t the herbs she had cultivated with spiritual energy in her Cosmos Ring all be wasted?
Fortunately, Chi Shuyan’s cultivation level was high enough that she could afford to inject however much spiritual energy the refinement required. Soon, the pill took shape. Chi Shuyan vaguely sensed that this pill was different from any other level 3 pill she had refined before. It was quite difficult to condense this pill, and some parts of the process were sluggish.
Not long after, the pill cauldron suddenly flew up with a cry and even circled around Chi Shuyan. It had to be pointed out that when she refined pills before, the pill cauldron never went out of control like this.
Although Chi Shuyan was very worried that the refinement of this batch of Advancement Pills would fail, she couldn’t be distracted now. She could only focus and continue to condense the pills.
At that moment, black clouds suddenly gathered in just a few square meters of the clear sky above the villa, and thunder and lightning abruptly rang out. It was very terrifying. Light blue lightning flashed in the clouds. Not long after, a few bolts of lightning as thick as a thumb suddenly struck the area around the villa. At that moment, these few square meters around the villa looked like the end of the world.
Chef Li brought the two little guys back home at that moment, and when he saw this scene, his face changed drastically, and unprecedented fear welled up in his heart. It wasn’t just Chef Li; Han Yu and Li Yu were so scared that their faces turned pale when they looked at the apocalyptic-like scene.
Han Yu was timid and couldn’t help but bury his head in Chef Li’s arms. His voice trembled as he said, “Grandpa Li, what… what’s going on? Did something happen at home?”
Li Yu’s face was also very unsightly at that moment. Although he was calmer than Han Yu, he was still a child, after all. His originally arrogant little face was also deathly white. When he thought of Chi Shuyan, Li Yu’s little face changed drastically. Afraid that something had happened to her, he said to Chef Li in a shaky voice, “Grandpa Li, let’s hurry back to the villa. Maybe… maybe something happened to Shuyan!”
Chef Li’s face was similarly white. For some reason, when he looked at the lightning that struck down around the villa, his heart pounded. He had the vague feeling that this lightning was completely different from ordinary lightning; it felt a bit oppressive, and it pressed down on him until his heart pounded and he couldn’t breathe.
Chef Li was equally worried about Miss Shuyan, but wouldn’t they be courting death if they rushed into the villa now? Besides, things might not be as bad as they thought. Thinking of Miss Shuyan’s abilities, Chef Li gritted his teeth and decided to calm down and take a look at the situation outside the villa first.
Fortunately, the fierce lightning left as swiftly as it had come. Not long after, the originally dark atmosphere outside the villa returned to a sunny day. Not only that, the dark, oppressive clouds had turned into an especially rare rainbow color.
If Chi Shuyan were here, she might have recognized that these colorful clouds were a pill cloud, which was formed from mid- and high-grade medicinal pills. Generally speaking, level 4 medicinal pills onward would produce a pill cloud, and there was a world of difference between pills with a pill cloud and pills with none.
Taking advantage of the bright sun, Chef Li hurriedly brought the two little ones into the villa. The two boys hurriedly looked around the villa, but couldn’t find Chi Shuyan. Chef Li called her phone, but Chi Shuyan didn’t pick up. They were very anxious.
At that moment, Chi Shuyan, who had just finished refining the Advancement Pill in her Cosmos Ring, was in a good mood. Her eyes were especially complicated as she stared fixedly at the pills in the pill cauldron. There were six Advancement Pills inside: two were high-grade pills, and the other four were low-grade pills. Most importantly, these six were all level 4 pills.
She stared at these level 4 Advancement Pills and vaguely felt that something was wrong. Her right eyelid kept twitching.
She actually refined level 4 Advancement Pills right away. It had to be pointed out that on Earth, level 3 and 4 pills were already world-shaking.
Moreover, what Chi Shuyan didn’t know was that her methods were different from almost all other alchemists in this world, and even if they could refine level 4 and 5 pills, they wouldn’t produce a pill cloud.
Although the Golden Lotus that she had refined this time wasn’t old enough, there had been heavenly tribulation and lightning. The level 4 Advancement Pill in this pill cauldron was completely different from the level 4 Advancement Pill refined by other alchemists in this world. Except for the fact that the Golden Lotus was young, this level 4 Advancement Pill could be considered a genuine level 4 Advancement Pill in the cultivation world.
Chi Shuyan stared at the pills for a long time, but couldn’t figure it out. She couldn’t be bothered to dwell on it. She put the two high-grade pills in spirit bottles, and the other four low-grade Advancement Pills in another spirit bottle for Fan Yin when the time came.
She was reluctant to give Fan Yin the level 4 Advancement Pill, mainly because it was too eye-catching, but she thought of how she had once probed Jing Hengran about whether there were level 4 and level 5 pills in this world.
The other party had said that there were. Although very few, a small number of top-level alchemists could indeed refine level 4, level 5 and even level 6 pills. Because alchemists were rare, pills above level 3 were very rare and priceless.
Since there were level 4, 5 and 6 pills in this world, Chi Shuyan wasn’t worried about giving Fan Yin level 4 Advancement Pills. Besides, these four Advancement Pills were all low-grade and weren’t too eye-catching.
Chi Shuyan had no idea at that moment of the true difference between a level 4 Advancement Pill with and without a pill cloud. It would be too late for her to regret it when she became the center of attention among all the ancient martial families.
After putting away the Advancement Pills, Chi Shuyan went out of her Cosmos Ring and went downstairs. As soon as she went downstairs, she met the shocked, incredulous and excited eyes of Chef Li and the two little ones.
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, the little guy, Li Yu, jumped into her arms. The little guy was like a firecracker, knocking into her stomach until it hurt a little.
“Shuyan, are you okay?” Li Yu raised his big eyes and blinked worriedly at her.
Chi Shuyan was speechless. What was going on?
Looking at the agitated expressions of Chef Li and Han Yu, Chi Shuyan felt that something wasn’t right. She stroked Li Yu’s head and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? What happened?”
Without waiting for Chef Li to speak, Li Yu said, “There was a huge thunderstorm outside just now. It was so scary!”
Li Yu felt that he was quite brave, but when he saw the lightning just now, he had felt especially terrified.
Chi Shuyan didn’t think much of it. She just thought that the lightning outside was too much, and the little guy had been scared out of his wits. No, even Chef Li had been scared out of his wits. How bad was the lightning just now?
Chi Shuyan curbed her thoughts and looked at the bright and sunny weather outside. She smiled and continued to rub the little guy’s little head to distract him and Chef Li. She also said a few comforting words, telling them not to worry about her. Could it be that they didn’t believe in her abilities?
Chef Li felt that there was something wrong with the lightning just now, and wanted to say something, but hesitated. Seeing that Miss Shuyan and the Ninth Prince were having a good time, he obediently kept quiet.
