Apart from all this... as long as Yan Xiaobao is alive, all he needs to do is continue to reproduce for future generations, and the matter will never end. He will beco the living nightmare of the sect.
Due to these considerations, Zheng Yuandong held an ergency eting with the sect elders, including Li. Their joint decision was that Yan Xiaobao should not take a Daoist partner for a hundred years. Although it seed a bit domineering, Zheng Yuandong believed there was no other choice. He didn't want to gamble on Yan Xiaobao's ability to resist temptation. He could only hope that in a hundred years, Yan Xiaobao would grow up and mature.
Ti flew by. Soon, a year had passed.
During that ti, it was almost as if Yan Xiaobao had disappeared from the South Shore. Very few people saw him. He spent all his ti on elixirs and cultivation. He rarely left the dicine Making Hall, where he worked hard on Second-level Spiritual dicine.
His cultivation was also slowly progressing. Soon, he was in the middle of the seventh level of Qi Condensation. Also, he was solving one problem after another while concocting Second-level Spiritual dicine.
In fact, most other experienced alchemists at his level had already concocted Second-level dicine long before. But Yan Xiaobao was very stubborn and refused to start making another batch without first solving every problem he found in the previous batch.
Finally, after an entire year, he was finally convinced that he had solved all the issues regarding the mixing of Second-level Spiritual dicine. With all the problems gone, he started on another batch.
"Violet Spirit Enhancent Pill!" he shouted, his eyes bloodshot. These were a type of Second-level dicinal dicine suited for Level 8 Qi Condensation and lower. Following the formula precisely, he chose many kinds of plants and vegetation, carefully organizing them, and then began feeding them into the pill furnace.
After adjusting the Earth Flas with precision, he watched the pill furnace closely, occasionally adjusting the spiritual energy he fed. After six hours, the pill furnace suddenly started to wobble. A strong dicinal fragrance wafted out, and Yan Xiaobao's eyes began to shine. He leaned against the pill furnace and gave it a pat, then three red pills flew out.
"It worked!" he shouted excitedly. Grabbing the three pills, he looked at them. But then, his eyes widened. "EEE? Wait a second. Sothing's not right. According to the description, Violet Qi Spirit Ascension Pills should be violet. How co these are all red?"
After scratching his head, he lifted the pills to his nose and took a deep sniff. The dicinal aroma was rich, filled with abundant spiritual energy. However, the sll was a bit strange, and given their wrong color, he didn't dare consu them.
He sat there thoughtfully, recalling the various steps he took during the making process. Two hours later, his eyes opened, and he laughed bitterly.
"I put too much Super Pollen Flower. It contaminated the rest of the dicinal plant ingredients, causing this odd side effect." Subsequently, he set the three red pills aside and started concocting again.
This ti, when the pill furnace began to shake and the dicinal aroma spread, a violet pill flew out. After careful examination, Yan Xiaobao had a deeply satisfied expression on his face.
He quickly began another batch. Over the next few days, he continued producing more batches until he had several dozen Violet Spirit Enhancent Pills. With that completed, he slumped to one side, utterly exhausted. After a period of rest, he revisited the red pills, looking at them hesitantly. As far as he was concerned, every pill he had just made was extrely valuable, and, when it ca to ingredients, he was beginning to run out.
"According to the concoction instructions, as long as the pills form, it's considered a success. These red Violet Spirit Enhancent Pills have a bit too much Super Pollen Flower, causing their color shift. However, all that ans is that they'll lose so potency." After a mont's hesitation, he clapped his hand over his bag, producing a green bamboo needle.
This was an item he acquired from the sect for use in dicine concoction, which could be used for a general assessnt of whether any given pill was toxic. Carefully inserting the needle into one of the red pills, he waited a mont, then pulled it back. The bamboo needle looked exactly the sa as before, not black.
"No poison!" he said with relief. However, out of caution, he still chose not to ingest any of the red pills. Instead, as he left the dicine Making Hall, he held them in his hand. On the air at dawn, he began walking down a path through the sect.
Above, he could see a group of Five-colored Phoenixes gliding gracefully in the sky, sotis calling out piercing cries. He ignored the phoenixes and proceeded toward a local Spirit Tail Chicken Farm, where he acquired a spirit tail chicken. Back at his courtyard, he set the chicken down, then tossed out a red pill in front of it.
The spirit tail chicken, which had been sitting there looking a bit tired, saw the red pill. A shiver ran through it, and it suddenly jumped up, lunging forward, pecking at the pill.
However, it was at this exact mont that a strong voice rang out from above. Then, a powerful wind blew through, sending the spirit tail chicken tumbling away before it could reach the pill.
A bit scared, Yan Xiaobao jumped back. anwhile, the Five-colored Phoenixes from above closed their eyes, gaped, and squabbled all the way. Finally, the strongest of the group, a male, managed to push his way past his companions, snatching the pill and swallowing it.
Disdainfully knocking aside the spirit tail chicken, the phoenix then gracefully flew up into the air. Yan Xiaobao wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. With eyes wide open, he could only watch as the phoenix ascended.
However, after a short flight, the graceful phoenix began to shake, then let out a long, mournful wail. As blood filled its eyes, they turned bright red. Its feathers all stood up suddenly, making it look like a fireball about to explode.
Even more astonishing, the powerful male phoenix's muscles began to bulge and ripple. As the entire phoenix swelled larger, cracking sounds echoed. Most notably, the feathery area between its two legs abruptly rose with rigid pole-like protrusions...
As he looked at the other phoenixes, a very peculiar expression could be seen on the male phoenix's face.
When the male phoenix charged madly at them, the others quivered and were about to scatter. Next, pitiful screams started to echo.
Yan Xiaobao stood in his courtyard, horrified, watching the aroused male phoenix... violate all the other phoenixes. Monts later, the phoenix turned towards him, its eyes burning as before, its entire body seeming filled with flas.
Yan Xiaobao, terrified and frightened, could hardly suppress a scream.
Thankfully, the phoenix wasn't actually targeting him but was aiming at the spirit-tailed chicken...
Shortly afterward, he watched as the male phoenix flew back to the mountain peak, squawking noisily. Right after that, Yan Xiaobao wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Absolutely terrifying..." he thought, looking down at the two remaining pills in his hand. "What kind of dicine are these pills!?!" As he realized they must be so type of aphrodisiac, his heart began to pound. Apparently... they were also very effective.
**
That day was a day the disciples of Feiyun Peak would never forget...
All the birds on the mountain, whatever type they were, were ravaged by Elder Zhou's mad phoenix... Countless disciples watched as bird after bird let out pitiful cries. Despite their best efforts to escape, not a single one could compare with Elder Zhou's phoenix. None managed to escape...
The evil phoenix didn't even spare the spirit tail chickens, let alone other birds Elder Zhou raised. Anything with wings on the mountain... lived a nightmare that day.
All the disciples talked about it, their hearts trembling. Soon, the word spread to Violet Cauldron Peak and Green Crest Peak. So people even ca to see for themselves the miraculous event unfolding.
"Did you hear about Xiangyun Peak, how Elder Zhou's phoenix went crazy? It started mounting any bird it saw..."
"I saw it with my own eyes. What a savage phoenix! It didn't even spare the magpies that passed by..."
"Just like Elder Zhou's doing, huh? How could he let his phoenix act like that...?"
"It's really infuriating, you know? The phoenix seed like it really turned on! It attacked so birds again and again. It's cruel!"
When Yan Xiaobao heard the talk circulating around the sect, he began to tremble, feeling even a little guilty.
