Chen Fei imdiately nodded. In this world, money could make ghosts turn millstones. By the sa token, this principle would surely hold true in the Cultivation World.
As thoughts raced through Chen Fei's mind, Zhen Jingkong, in his Sea of Consciousness, suddenly lifted his head with a peculiar expression. After a mont, he slowly shook his head and smiled. "You still have twenty to thirty percent of the pill's dicinal efficacy remaining in your body. If you absorb it all, you might be able to break through to the Peak of Qi Refining Seventh Layer!"
"There's still so of the pill's efficacy left in my body?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fei was slightly startled. He quickly spread his Spiritual Sense throughout his body to investigate. In just two or three breaths, he began to laugh with excitent. "I never expected the efficacy of the Eight Patterned Blood-tempering Purple Cloud Pill to be so potent. It already supported my breakthrough to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, and there's still so left!"
"What should we do? Continue your seclusion and break through to the Peak of Qi Refining Seventh Layer?" Zhen Jingkong asked.
"Break through to the Peak of Qi Refining Seventh Layer? Forget it. The remaining efficacy probably isn't enough. Besides, forcing it would be like pulling up seedlings just to help them grow. It's simply not worth it," Chen Fei said, surprisingly shaking his head.
As his voice fell, his pitch-black eyes, as clear as glazed glass, flickered, and his muscles suddenly bulged.
Brilliant, almost solid, purple-green light began to converge from every corner of his body, concealing a faint golden glow within. This was the residual efficacy of the Eight Patterned Blood-tempering Purple Cloud Pill—the true, material manifestation of a legendary Golden Patterned Pill.
HUM.
The purple-green dicinal light roared out. Upon contacting Chen Fei's flesh, bones, and ridians, it instantly transford into a surging power, pouring into his body in a manner akin to an empowernt ritual.
You're trying to...
When Chen Fei made this move, Zhen Jingkong instantly understood his intent. Is this kid actually trying to infuse the remaining pill's efficacy into his body to strengthen his physique? No way. This pill can also temper the physical body? If so, the effects of such a pill would be far too powerful, too monstrous!
As everyone knew, the cultivation of the physical body and Spiritual Energy were completely separate. A pill might help a cultivator break through in their Spirit Qi Realm, but that didn't an it also had the effect of tempering the physical body. In fact, any pill that could both temper the physical body and advance one's Spirit Qi Realm was exceedingly rare and heaven-defying. Such a pill could be considered peerless.
As the residual efficacy seeped into his flesh, bones, and ridians, the already faint purple-green glow within Chen Fei's body dimd at an astonishing pace.
His body, however, began to radiate a gem-like luster, like the contained brilliance of a crystal. Under the intense tempering of the dicinal effect, his flesh began to turn faintly translucent. In the end, a faint, exotic fragrance even started to emanate from him. This miraculous phenonon occurred because the impurities within his body had been completely eliminated, leaving it pure and pristine.
After a long while, the purple-green light in Chen Fei's body finally dissipated completely. In its place, Young Master Chen Fei's physique gradually exuded an unprecedented, domineering aura. His blood and qi surged like a dragon, and his skin was as tough as refined iron.
At this mont, Chen Fei finally opened his eyes again. The look in them was different than before—razor-sharp and brilliant.
With a soft puff of air, he lightly exhaled a breath of turbid qi. He closed his eyes and opened them again, retracting all of that sharp aura back beneath his eyelids.
As he sensed his own body, he discovered it had beco imnsely stronger. A torrent of powerful and astonishing vital energy, its potency no less than that of a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact, circulated endlessly through his body like a flood.
Physical strength comparable to a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact?
With this new awareness, Chen Fei understood. His physical strength had truly reached a level comparable to an ordinary Mid-Grade Magical Artifact! If word of this got out—that a Cultivator of Qi Refining Seventh Layer possessed the physical strength of a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact—it would be enough to leave people utterly stunned, their jaws on the floor.
What kind of cultivation thod are you practicing? How could you possibly enhance your physical strength to such a degree by rely relying on a pill's tempering effects? Zhen Jingkong had clearly seen to the heart of the matter. The creation of this terrifying scene couldn't be credited to the pill's efficacy alone. The cultivation thod Chen Fei practices must have been responsible for the vast majority of it.
"It's just a Qi Refining Realm technique for the Dual Cultivation of Sword Body," Chen Fei said, standing up and dusting off his hands with a smile. "Well, what needed to be done is done. It's ti to head out." He started walking towards the alchemist's room door.
In his Sea of Consciousness, Zhen Jingkong was reeling. 'Just' a Qi Refining Realm technique for the Dual Cultivation of Sword Body? Is he really saying that like it's nothing? he muttered to himself, shaking his head.
He had admittedly overlooked Chen Fei's Cultivation thod in the past. Now, based on his judgnt, the technique Chen Fei practiced was at least several tis more powerful than the Qi Refining Realm techniques he himself had used! But the problem was, even if the techniques he had practiced weren't the most powerful in his Sect, they were at least ranked in the top three!
Damn it, where on earth did this kid find so many things that even I, Zhen Jingkong, can't comprehend? But having already witnessed Chen Fei concoct the Eight Patterned Blood-tempering Purple Cloud Pill, he found that even if he wanted to be shocked, he was already numb to it.
「Outside the alchemy room.」
A quiet line of figures, each exuding a powerful aura, stood waiting. At this mont, their eyes were all locked intently on the sealed doors of the alchemy room, an unconscious look of reverence on their faces.
Among these powerful figures, the leader was the most eye-catching. Clad in a wide gray robe with especially large sleeves that concealed his hands, he had a stern face, an aquiline nose, and eyes with a faint purple hue, as sharp as a blade's edge. He exuded an imnse, indefinable pressure.
If anyone who knew him were present and saw him standing so respectfully outside an alchemy room, as though guarding it for the person inside, they would be utterly shocked—so shocked their jaws would hit the ground.
This hook-nosed man in the wide robe held no ordinary identity. He was the current acting Clan Leader of the Liu Family of Jinbao Pavilion, one of the three great families of Canglan Island. He was a Cave Master Level Powerhouse of Qi Refining Ninth Layer, the biological brother of the Liu Family Ancestor Liu Qi, a man known as Liu Zheng, or Liu Erye—a notoriously domineering individual.
Yet, a figure so domineering he was famous across Canglan Island was now standing "obediently" and quietly outside the alchemy room, barely daring to breathe too heavily. Such a scene was truly unimaginable.
However, if people knew the identity of the person inside that alchemy room, they would probably no longer find Liu Zheng's unusual behavior so surprising.
For the person inside that alchemy room was a mysterious and powerful alchemist capable of producing six Six-Pattern Cloud Vein Pills in a single batch. As the biological brother of a Low Grade Third-Level Alchemist, Liu Zheng understood perfectly what such a terrifying skill implied.
So even he, with his deeply ingrained domineering disposition, did not dare act presumptuously in front of such a supre figure.
RUMBLE!
Just then, the sealed doors of the alchemy room suddenly emitted a thunderous, deafening sound, as if being pushed open from within.
Instantly, Liu Zheng's breathing beca more rapid. He stared intently at the gradually opening door.
