The residence Jia Xingtian had arranged was fully furnished—everything from tables to bedding had already been prepared. Liu Xi didn't have to lift a finger.
The valley was tranquil. Walking to a secluded corner, Liu Xi raised his hand, and with a flash of light from his Storage Ring, the crimson-colored Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron appeared, landing heavily on the lush green grass.
Monts later, a series of jade boxes floated around him, encased in Dou Qi. Wisps of herbal fragrance escaped through their narrow seams—these were the dicinal ingredients for two sets of Mighty Huang Pills.
Liu Xi had already reached the peak of 1-Star Dou Huang. His Dou Qi, refined through the Fallen Heart Fla, was exceptionally pure, but he still hovered just shy of another breakthrough.
He planned to use this alchemy session to apply a bit of external pressure—stimulating his limits before returning to calm cultivation to temper and consolidate his power.
Xiao Yixian was tidying their quarters, while Zi Yan and Zi Ling played on the grass nearby. Ensuring no one would disturb him, Liu Xi began the process.
A flicker of green fire ignited at his fingertips before he gently sent it into the cauldron. The fla swelled instantly, burning fiercely but under perfect control, its temperature held steady by his powerful spiritual power.
Ten minutes later, a wave of heat spread outward, drying the nearby grass to pale yellow. Liu Xi's expression remained focused—'Ti to start.'
With a precise motion, he flicked his fingers, sending a stalk of dicinal herb into the cauldron. The cyan fla coiled upward, refining the plant's essence.
The Mighty Huang Pill could help a Dou Huang advance by one or two stars, a top-tier 6th Tier pill. This wasn't Liu Xi's first ti crafting one—his current alchemy skill ensured a success rate of over ninety percent.
The remaining ten percent? More like courtesy toward the pill's rank—his failure rate was essentially negligible.
Ti flowed quietly. Thirteen hours later, the final ingredient lted into a sphere of thick orange-gold essence.
"Condensation begins."
Liu Xi's expression was calm as his hands ford complex seals in rapid succession, leaving faint afterimages in the air. The cyan fla swirled violently, drawing in every droplet of essence, fusing them in a precise order.
Powerful dicinal energy surged, making the fla tremble. Rings of force rippled against the cauldron's inner wall, though the Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron itself didn't budge in the slightest.
Everything proceeded smoothly—under the fla's nourishnt, the pill condensed without issue.
Two days later, within the cauldron, a golden pill embryo began to take shape. It gradually grew smooth and round, glowing brighter with every breath.
After another six hours of refinent, a sudden burst of golden energy shot upward, blasting the cauldron lid into the air and piercing straight through the clouds.
The surrounding heaven and earth energies surged, forming a vast golden cloud that turned night into blazing day.
Within the pillar of light, the golden pill pulsed with a mighty aura—it truly contained enough energy to elevate a Dou Huang's power by two full stars.
The commotion startled Xiao Yixian from her cultivation. Sensing the familiar energy signature, she relaxed and smiled faintly.
"When the Young Master takes that pill, he'll beco even stronger… I can't fall too far behind."
Zi Yan and Zi Ling, anwhile, slept soundly, deeply imrsed in their own energy refinent.
Farther away, the Serene Sea Scaly Beast raised its enormous head from the lake, its lantern-like eyes narrowing at the golden column piercing the heavens.
"What a magnificent energy surge… A 6th Tier pill? Or higher? Humans truly are blessed—one pill can equal decades of my cultivation."
Gradually, the golden radiance faded. Just as the energy column dissipated, the luminous pill—seemingly sentient—tried to escape into the open air.
In a blur, Liu Xi vanished from his spot and reappeared behind it, snatching the pill cleanly from the air before it could flee.
He landed lightly on the ground, a faint smile curving his lips. "Not bad. No mishaps this ti."
Entering the wooden pavilion, he selected a secluded chamber and set up the Green Lotus Platform. The room's fire attribute energy thickened rapidly, drawn toward the lotus seat.
Liu Xi sat cross-legged, hands forming a cultivation seal as he entered ditation to restore the Dou Qi and spiritual power consud by alchemy.
He didn't know how long had passed when he suddenly sensed sothing unusual. The Dou Qi coursing through his ridians grew restless, and his body felt starved—every muscle and bone crying out for energy.
'Hm? Finally breaking through?'
Excitent flashed in his eyes. Without hesitation, he took out the jade bottle and swallowed the Mighty Huang Pill, returning to ditation.
At once, a vast torrent of energy erupted within him, surging through every vein, muscle, and bone. His entire body trembled from the force.
A formless green fla burst from his heart, following the Nine Nether Ghost Fla Technique's circulation route, helping refine and absorb the dicinal power.
Under the fla's tempering, the raw dicinal energy transford swiftly into pure, refined Dou Qi—absorbed into every cell of his body.
By the next day, Liu Xi's aura surged past 2-Star Dou Huang. The pill's energy had barely diminished by one-fifth, continuing to feed his growth, pushing him closer toward 3-Star Dou Huang.
At the sa ti, Zi Yan's playful energy began to fade. Her words grew sparse, her cheeks flushed, her small body burning with feverish heat.
Alard, Xiao Yixian rushed to her side. Even Zi Ling's eyes shimred with concern—but Liu Xi was deep in breakthrough; disturbing him could be disastrous.
Monts later, Zi Yan fell completely unconscious. From her body burst an intense violet radiance that quickly wrapped her in a massive cocoon of purple light nearly ten feet across.
The sheer force pulsing within it made Xiao Yixian's heart race. There was no doubt—Zi Yan's accumulated energy had reached its peak.
She was advancing… breaking through to Dou Huang.
