Chapter 215: cultivation Soars

Wang Lin stared at the Pill Furnace, his heart stirring. He thought of Yun Fei from back then. After a slight ponder, Wang Lin patted his Storage Pouch, and an item appeared in his hand. This item was precisely the Jade Slip from Yun Fei's Storage Pouch.

Placing the Jade Slip on the table, Wang Lin said in a deep voice, “This Jade Slip and the Pill Furnace both came from the same person. See if there’s any connection.”

Li Muwan's beautiful eyes lit up. Her jade-like hand picked up the slip and swept it with her Divine Sense. Not long after, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she softly said, “Qihuang Sect… it should be Qihuang Sect. Some of the Pill Formulas in this Jade Slip clearly bear the Alchemy methods of the Qihuang Sect. Did Elder Brother Wang obtain this item in the Cultivation Devil Sea?”

Wang Lin nodded.

“Then there’s no mistake, it must be the Qihuang Sect. This Qihuang Sect was originally a sect from a Grade Four Cultivation Country, but later, after offending an enemy, the entire sect migrated to the Cultivation Devil Sea and has been missing ever since. It seems this Pill Furnace must be an item of the Qihuang Sect. However, the method to open this pill seal has been lost. Wan'er only knows that this item cannot be easily opened; it requires a series of specific techniques, as well as favorable timing and conditions. Otherwise, if opened forcibly, it will only damage the quality of the Medicinal Pills inside, and it's even very likely to cause the Medicinal Pills to shatter into dust. Furthermore, Wan'er's analysis suggests that this item has not yet reached its time limit. This means that opening it now, even with the correct techniques, the quality of the Medicinal Pills will not reach the expected level from when they were originally refined,” Li Muwan said softly, biting her lower lip.

Wang Lin secretly nodded. Only this could explain why Yun Fei, after taking out the Pill Furnace, didn't open it herself but instead wanted to exchange it for the removal of a Restriction.

“Elder Brother Wang, Wan'er will go to the Cloud Heaven Sect's Scripture Pavilion again to search for ancient texts, striving to open this pill seal as soon as possible. If the Medicinal Pills inside are effective for Breakthrough in cultivation, then Elder Brother Wang's chances of reaching the Nascent Soul Stage will be even higher!” Li Muwan said with a determined gaze, gritting her silver teeth.

Afterward, Li Muwan took out several bottles of Medicinal Pills, handed them to Wang Lin one by one, and thoroughly explained the precautions for consumption. Then, Wang Lin stood up to take his leave.

Under Li Muwan's reluctant gaze, Wang Lin left the Southern Courtyard. After all, his cultivation was not yet sufficient at this time, and if he Cultivated for a long time in Li Muwan's room, it would definitely attract attention.

So, Wang Lin left the Southern Courtyard and prepared to return to his room in the Northern Courtyard to begin his secluded cultivation!

He and Li Muwan had already agreed and left a sound transmission Jade Slip. As soon as Li Muwan opened the pill seal, she would send him the Medicinal Pills.

At the same time, for Li Muwan's safety, Wang Lin left the Devil Head Xu Ligou and the Second Devil Head for protection. After all, these two Devil Heads, working together, could contend for a short time even with a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

This amount of time would be enough for Wang Lin's main body to appear. The most important thing, however, was that only these Devil Heads, connected to his Divine Sense soul core, could maintain a trace of connection with him when Wang Lin was in the Heaven Defying space.

As Wang Lin just walked out of the Southern Courtyard, a gentle voice slowly emerged from the white mist behind him.

“Is your name Wang Lin?”

Wang Lin paused, and as he turned around, the white mist churned. A rather handsome middle-aged man walked out from within. This person exuded an aura of Immortality from head to toe, appearing truly like a genuine Immortal, detached and ethereal.

This person was Sun Zhenwei, the son of the Outer Court Elder.

Wang Lin's gaze was calm, and he said neither humbly nor arrogantly, “Precisely!”

His eyes showed goodwill, and he said with a smile, “Were you just going to see your Grandmaster?”

Wang Lin sneered inwardly, but his expression remained calm as he nodded.

Sun Zhenwei looked at Wang Lin and smiled, “In another two months, I will also be considered your Grandmaster. You are very diligent; Cultivate well. If you have any questions about Alchemy, you can ask your Grandmaster. If you have any questions about cultivation, you can come to me.”

Wang Lin's expression was as usual, and he said calmly, “If there is nothing else, this Disciple still has a furnace of Medicinal Pills to refine. I will take my leave now.”

Sun Zhenwei felt a slight anger in his heart, and his face involuntarily darkened. However, he quickly smiled again, glanced at Wang Lin, then took out a Flying Sword from his Storage Pouch and said, “This sword is named Qingfeng. Consider it a welcome gift from me. Take it!” As he spoke, he sent the Flying Sword forward, and it floated before Wang Lin.

Wang Lin took it, glanced at it, clasped his fists in thanks, and then turned to leave.

Sun Zhenwei watched Wang Lin disappear with a smile, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He thought to himself, “This kid’s cultivation is only at Foundation Establishment. He’s perfect to use as a pawn to monitor Li Muwan. Hmph, with his cultivation, even if he suspects something about that Flying Sword, he won’t be able to discern any clues!”

Wang Lin returned to his Northern Courtyard residence. After entering his room, he took out the Flying Sword, glanced at it, then formed a Restriction with both hands and gently imprinted it onto the Flying Sword.

The Flying Sword emitted bursts of cold light, but with Wang Lin's cunning, Sun Zhenwei's act of gifting the sword was quite abnormal. He understood this trick thoroughly without even needing to think deeply; this Flying Sword naturally had its peculiarities. It was nothing more than for surveillance.

Wang Lin sneered inwardly. His Restriction was enough to limit the Flying Sword's function without Sun Zhenwei discovering it.

After tossing the Flying Sword aside, Wang Lin took a deep breath, touched his right hand to his brow, and entered the Heaven Defying space. Wang Lin knew his time was limited; two months in reality was nearly two years in the Heaven Defying space.

He didn't have much time left.

Wang Lin sat cross-legged within Heaven Defying. Before him lay more than ten large and small medicine jars, some of which had their openings sealed with wax.

These medicines were the finest among the Medicinal Pills Li Muwan had refined over the past two hundred years, all suitable for him to consume and capable of increasing the chances of Core Formation.

Wang Lin, following Li Muwan's instructions, arranged these medicine bottles from left to right according to the order of consumption. Then, he picked up the first medicine bottle on the left, crushed the wax seal, and a medicinal fragrance immediately wafted forth. Inside, there were ten white pills, each about the size of a lychee.

This Medicinal Pill was named Qizuo Pill, a Grade Two high-tier Spirit Pill, refined with various rare medicinal Materials. Its medicinal effect was immense; in addition to increasing spiritual power, it also had the effect of expanding the Meridians.

The Pill Formula for the Qizuo Pill was one of the Nine Revolutions Eighteen Pills of the Luohai Sect back then, a truly rare item in Grade Three cultivation Countries, and a quality higher than a Foundation Establishment Pill.

The preciousness of this Medicinal Pill lay in its ability to expand the Meridians. Such medicines were not abundant even in the Cloud Heaven Sect. Generally, Medicinal Pills that could expand Meridians were often Grade Four or above; a Grade Two Spirit Pill with such efficacy was extremely rare.

Within the Cloud Heaven Sect, there were fewer than twenty Qizuo Pills, all refined by Li Muwan.

Wang Lin picked up one with two fingers and placed it in his mouth, immediately beginning to circulate Qi. As the Medicinal Pill entered his mouth, it instantly transformed into spiritual power. Wang Lin immediately sensed the difference between this pill and a Foundation Establishment Pill; the spiritual power it contained was clearly more than double.

The vast spiritual power, under the devouring of the Ancient God Art, slowly returned to calm. Without another word, Wang Lin consumed another pill.

Time slowly passed. After consuming all the Qizuo Pills, Wang Lin's cultivation had already reached the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. This method of cultivation, without considering any consequences or harm, was something only Wang Lin dared to attempt.

One must know that even among the more prevalent pill-popping cultivation methods in the Cultivation World, such a quantity of Medicinal Pills would not be consumed in a short period. Firstly, absorption is a major issue. The absorption of Medicinal Pills, depending on their quality, varies in duration, but generally, it requires several days or even months of circulation to ensure the Medicinal Pills are fully absorbed without waste.

Besides the fact that Medicinal Pills are precious and cultivators are reluctant to waste them, the more important reason is that the spiritual power contained within Medicinal Pills is considerable, so one must carefully circulate and absorb it. If absorbed too quickly, it will not only be unbeneficial to the body but will also lead to phenomena like demonic intrusion.

Moreover, if too many Spirit Medicines are consumed in a short period, or rather, if cultivation is increased too rapidly through Medicinal Pills in a short time, even if the body is unharmed, it will have a fatal impact on future cultivation.

However, none of these problems existed for Wang Lin. Firstly, no matter how many Medicinal Pills he swallowed, the Ancient God Art would devour them frantically. Secondly, regarding future cultivation problems, it was merely a Clone consuming the Medicinal Pills, not the main body. In fact, for Wang Lin, this Clone was essentially a manually created super Medicinal Pill.

However, the power contained within this “Medicinal Pill” had far exceeded the limits that ordinary medicines could bear. He was completely a human-shaped pill, and his purpose was to allow the main body to Breakthrough the extreme realm limit and reach the Nascent Soul Stage.

With the Qizuo Pills exhausted, Wang Lin picked up the second pill bottle. Core Formation, for this Clone, presented a considerable difficulty. One must know that when Wang Lin's main body formed its Core back then, it was after Cultivating the Yellow Springs Ascending Aperture Art, forming three cold cores within his body. These cold cores merged into a core embryo, and coupled with a series of Heavenly Departure Pills refined by Li Muwan, he finally succeeded.

Li Muwan had not provided a name for this second bottle of Medicinal Pills, only saying that Wang Lin would know upon seeing it. Wang Lin's gaze was calm, he crushed the wax seal, opened it to look, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Inside were five purplish-red Medicinal Pills. Wang Lin recognized them at a glance: they were precisely the Heavenly Departure Pills he had consumed back then!

Clearly, over these two hundred years, Li Muwan had expended immense effort to re-refine these Heavenly Departure Pills. And indeed, this was the case. The Heavenly Departure Pill was a Grade Three low-tier Medicinal Pill, and the Materials for refining it were already extinct in the Huofen Country. It was only after Li Muwan joined the Cloud Heaven Sect, leveraging her status as an Elder, that she managed to gather the Materials and produce them.

However, the Cloud Heaven Sect did not have many Materials in this regard; after refining five Heavenly Departure Pills, the Materials were almost completely used up.

In fact, a large portion of the Materials for the Medicinal Pills Wang Lin consumed this time were taken by Li Muwan from the Cloud Heaven Sect and refined. It could be said that his cultivation was entirely at the cost of the Cloud Heaven Sect's Alchemy Materials, used to accumulate the Medicinal Pills for his consumption.
