Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Three Years Of Grounding

Song Shuwen realized that his help to Ye Liuyun might have brought him an Opportunity.

This kind of pill, which looked like a Spirit Gathering Pill but was far more effective, was definitely a good thing. To verify his thoughts, Song Shuwen ate another one. Sure enough, after eating it, he found that his cultivation level had increased again.

Ye Liuyun had given Song Shuwen ten Spirit Burst Pills, which meant Song Shuwen could directly increase his cultivation by a month.

Don't think that a month's cultivation is not much. On the path of Cultivation, there is only advancement and no retreat. If you have a month more of cultivation improvement than others in the same Realm, that is an absolute gap. It is very difficult to catch up relying on normal cultivation.

Song Shuwen ate ten in a row, and the effect did not slow down at all. He was at the Middle Stage of the Lingxi Realm and was not far from the Late Stage. These ten Medicinal Pills saved him a month of time.

"Too magical! Ten Medicinal Pills saved me a month of cultivation time. Could this Junior Sister Ye be a powerful Alchemist?" Song Shuwen speculated.

Let's look at Ye Liuyun. After Ye Liuyun entered her private Alchemy room, she took out the Medicinal Herbs she had received from the herb storage room.

"Hehe, Old Hag, I think I'm going to get rich." Ye Liuyun said excitedly.

However, Lin Qingyou still kindly reminded Ye Liuyun.

"I know what you want to say, but you shouldn't be too frequent. If you refine one Medicinal Pill and net nine more, it's equivalent to getting nine portions of Medicinal Herbs for free each time. This means that if you are too frequent, you will quickly consume the Yunxia Sect's stock of Medicinal Herbs entirely." Lin Qingyou said.

Ye Liuyun had certainly thought of this point, so she could not accept tasks in large quantities, nor could she accept them too frequently.

It was just that Ye Liuyun's cultivation was different from normal Cultivators. She didn't need to meditate, she just needed to eat Heaven And Earth Treasure containing energy.

To be precise, anything that entered her body would be converted into energy. Even Mortal World food had energy, it was just a matter of how much.

The tasks Ye Liuyun accepted were the Spirit Gathering Pill and Fusion Pill, which were essential for Cultivators in the Lunhai Realm. The Spirit Gathering Pill was White Grade Low Grade, and the Fusion Pill was White Grade Medium Grade.

The effect of the Fusion Pill was twice as good as the Spirit Gathering Pill, and the absorption speed was faster, but compared to Ye Liuyun's Spirit Burst Pill, it definitely couldn't compare.

Although it was her first time refining these Medicinal Pills, the Alchemy technique Lin Qingyou taught Ye Liuyun was universal. As long as she knew the accurate Pill Formula, refining them was naturally easy.

Ye Liuyun smoothly put the Materials into her Medicine Cauldron and went through the process casually. Three minutes later, ten Spirit Gathering Pills rolled out of the pill output of the Medicine Cauldron.

But these Spirit Gathering Pills looked unusual; the surface was similar to a Spirit Gathering Pill, but they actually had Pill Light and Pill Runes.

"You brat, you don't know how to restrain yourself again. You shouldn't raise the refining standard of such low-level Medicinal Pills so high. This has already produced Pill Light and Pill Runes. When you hand them in later, how will you explain it?" Lin Qingyou looked at the quality of these ten Medicinal Pills and immediately criticized her.

Ye Liuyun looked at the Medicinal Pill carefully, then smiled sheepishly.

"I, I will be careful next time and won't use the ten thousand medicine immortal cauldron to refine them."

What are Pill Light and Pill Runes? This is an external manifestation of the grade and efficacy of a Medicinal Pill.

Pill Light refers to the Fusion degree of the Medicinal Herbs; the better the Medicinal Herbs are fused, the brighter the luster of the Medicinal Pill.

Pill Runes represent the efficacy of the medicine. Ordinary Medicinal Pills do not have Pill Runes, but if Pill Runes are produced, the efficacy will double.

Medicinal Pills can have a maximum of nine Pill Runes, meaning one Pill Rune doubles the efficacy, and nine Pill Runes increase the efficacy by nine times.

The more carefully Ye Liuyun refined, the higher the standard of the Medicinal Pills would be, but these Medicinal Pills were definitely not suitable for circulation. If they were taken out, they would definitely cause trouble.

Therefore, when Ye Liuyun refined these ordinary Medicinal Pills, it was best not to use the ten thousand medicine immortal cauldron and Ten Thousand Medicine Immortal Fire. Only in this way could she minimize the Alchemy technique Lin Qingyou taught her.

Ye Liuyun put away the ten thousand medicine immortal cauldron, and then used the medicine furnace provided in the Alchemy Room to perform the refining. She did not use the Ten Thousand Medicine Immortal Fire, but instead used the flame that came with the furnace.

In this way, although the Medicinal Pill Ye Liuyun refined still amounted to ten, they did not possess Pill Runes. Even so, the pill light was still somewhat bright.

However, this kind of pill light would not be noticeable to anyone who was not a professional Alchemist.

The Spirit Burst Pill that Song Shuwen consumed was something Ye Liuyun had created by casually fusing medicinal Materials, so it was still in the experimental stage and had not reached its optimal state.

However, once Ye Liuyun gradually became familiar with these newly developed Medicinal Pills in the future, their effects would likely improve significantly.

Time passed day by day. A week later, a wave of Spiritual Qi pressure suddenly emanated from Lin Aoxue's residence.

Yun Yun, who was sitting in the courtyard, immediately became somewhat startled after sensing this fluctuation of power.

"She broke through? This Little Girl has only been in the Sect for a few days, yet she has already broken through from the Early Stage of the Lingxi Realm to the Middle Stage. What kind of Physique does she actually have?" Yun Yun said with a look of amazement.

She only knew that Lin Aoxue's Physique was extraordinary, but she did not know that Lin Aoxue possessed the Feihua Immortal Body. This kind of Physique was top-tier in the entire Human Realm and could definitely enter the top ten of the God-Mind Rankings.

After her Breakthrough, Lin Aoxue immediately stood up and stretched.

"Ah! How many days have I been cultivating? No, I have to go see Liuyun. She should still be serving her punishment, right?" After saying this, Lin Aoxue prepared to leave the room.

But the moment she tried to open the room, she discovered that the door would not open, as it had been sealed by a force.

"Eh? Master, Master, why did you seal the door? Let me out. I'm just going out for a moment to see my sister, and I'll be right back." Lin Aoxue knocked on the door and called out.

However, Yun Yun had no intention of letting her out.

"Didn't we agree? Cultivate quietly for one month. After one month, we will start practicing techniques, and in the third month, we will conduct actual combat training," Yun Yun said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Lin Aoxue immediately became very unhappy.

"Ah? Master, that's too long! I'm worried about my sister being alone in the Outer Sect. What if she gets bullied?" Lin Aoxue asked.

But Yun Yun shook her head.

"Rest assured, our Yunxia Sect has strict rules, and such things will not happen. Of course, small frictions are inevitable, but the Cultivation World is inherently a world where the strong are respected. No one can avoid conflict with others. If she cannot even resolve such minor troubles on her own, then you might as well let your sister return to the Mortal World," Yun Yun stated.

What Yun Yun said was perfectly reasonable. As someone who Cultivates, one must possess the ability to solve their own troubles. Besides, Ye Liuyun did not have any trouble at the moment.

"Alright, then Master, when do you intend to set me free?" Lin Aoxue was not a love-struck fool; she naturally understood that there was nothing wrong with what Yun Yun said.

"Three years from now, the new Disciples will undergo an assessment. After the assessment is over, you will become an official Disciple of the Sect, and at that time, I will no longer restrict you," Yun Yun promised.

Upon hearing that she could not see Ye Liuyun for three years, Lin Aoxue was stunned.

"Me? Three years? That won't do, Master, three years is too long. How about one year? I guarantee that within one year, I will complete all the tasks you assign," Lin Aoxue pleaded.

Yun Yun sighed deeply, but she still denied Lin Aoxue's request because she felt that Lin Aoxue was too impetuous. She prepared to discipline her for three years to suppress Lin Aoxue's heart, which could not endure loneliness.

After Lin Aoxue talked for a long time, Yun Yun still did not agree. Having no other choice, she had to compromise and return to her room to continue Cultivating.

As for Ye Liuyun, she basically lived in the Alchemy Pavilion and rarely returned to her own residence. At the same time, she did not go to listen to the Dao lectures. Originally, according to the requirements, new Disciples had to go to the Dao Discussion Hall every day for three months.

This listening to lectures meant listening to the Sect's Seniors impart methods of Cultivation. If you do not listen to the high-level Seniors explain the Cultivation Technique, even if you are given the Cultivation Technique, you will not understand it.

Of course, with Lin Qingyou by Ye Liuyun's side, there was naturally no need to attend the lectures.
