Chapter 70: Seven Drops of Essence Blood

  In the depths of the valley, there are stone forests and steep cliffs everywhere. It's still easy to find a hidden cave as a hiding place.

  Liu Qingyun has already started refining it. Yang Yi was seeing someone refine a pill for the first time and felt very curious, so he stared at every step of Liu Qingyun's.

  Liu Qingyun took out a three-legged large cauldron from the space ring, and the patterns on the cauldron were painted with unrecognizable monsters. The cauldron had a lid, but Liu Qingyun was not in a hurry to start refining. Instead, he lit the fire under the cauldron and slowly started burning it.

  As the tripod had a thread of fragrant smoke rising, Liu Qingyun began to throw in one by one the raw materials, which were probably over a hundred kinds, all auxiliary medicinal materials for refining the elixir pill. Yang Yi only then knew that refining the elixir pill was complicated.

  Wu Tianxia saw Yang Yi's astonished expression and smiled slightly: "Brother Liu's alchemy, he strives for perfection in every detail. The medicinal materials he added are actually not necessary, but to ensure the success of refining the superior elixir, that's why he added so many ingredients."

  Yang nodded slightly to indicate understanding. These materials have nothing to do with the Refining Pill, but are only used to increase the success rate of refining the pill.

  About half a time, the fire under the cauldron became even more intense. Liu Qingyun's expression was serious, and he cut the Qiu beast in his hand into several segments, throwing them one by one into the cauldron.

  The most important part of refining the essence of alchemy has begun!

  "Huffing"

  The flames grew even more vigorous, making people feel unbearably hot. This was the fierce fire needed to refine the elixir, but it also required control. The goal was to burn all the useless impurities in the medicinal materials into ashes, a task that consumed a great deal of effort and allowed no room for carelessness.

  Wu Tianxia said calmly: "Yang brother, this elimination of impurities will take some time, I'm afraid it won't be calm for a day or two."

  Yang nodded slightly and didn't observe the refining process carefully, but instead took out a jade bottle from his hand, which contained the twenty-four drops of essence blood of that mysterious man.

  This is not a small amount, at least it shows that this mysterious man had six drops of essence blood when he was in the fourth stage of Blood Congealment. When he reached the fifth stage, his essence blood doubled to twelve drops, and when he reached the sixth stage, it doubled again to twenty-four drops.

  Being able to break through at the sixth drop of essence blood, such a person can be considered a genius, and it's no wonder that their strength is so powerful. If they hadn't been too careless, Yang Yi would have been killed by them in the Deep Valley, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to hunt down the Qiuwu beast, which was comparable to the Seventh-Order Void Condensing Pill, to the point of having nowhere to escape.

  Yang Yi glanced at Liu Qingyun, who was closing his eyes and constantly controlling the flames of the dan furnace. He wouldn't wake up for a while, so Yang Yi decided to refine these pure bloods and see if he could condense the seventh drop of pure blood.

  Open the jade bottle, a fragrance wafts out, these twenty-four drops of essence have reached their peak, their color has turned black. No wonder the mysterious man wants to refine the essence pill at all costs to break through the boundary, merge the essence and blood, and achieve the virtual pill. Such essence has indeed no possibility of re-condensation, it has reached its limit.

  However, the more such refined blood, the more abundant the power and yuanqi contained within it. Yang opened his mouth, and a drop of refined blood instantly slid into his mouth.

  "Humming"

  It was as if a drop of water had entered a pot of boiling oil, and Yang's entire body of blood suddenly boiled up. This black-colored vital energy was like a lone and proud knight, and no blood vessel could refine it.

  Yang Yi coldly snorted: "Just a small drop of essence blood, what can be done? Refine it for me!"

  Yang Yi swiftly mobilized the blood vessels throughout his body, and his heart also accelerated its beating. The power of the six drops of essence suddenly burst forth, beginning to encircle that drop of essence, continuously refining it.

  The essence of the Sixfold Blood Refining Master's blood is incredibly powerful, and half a day has passed without even a hint of refinement. However, Yang Yi refused to give up; after all, it was just a single drop of essence blood. If one's skills were deep enough, even an iron rod could be ground into a needle - let alone a single drop of essence blood?

  As time slowly passed, even the most tenacious essence couldn't withstand the prolonged refinement. This drop of essence finally began to melt, and a rich stream of primordial energy rapidly dissolved into the bloodstream, passing through the heart and increasing the power of the blood vessels.

  Yang Yi's six drops of essence blood power were once again enhanced, each drop was like black carbon.

  Having gained experience from refining the first drop of essence blood, continuing to refine the remaining essence blood seems much simpler.

  One drop, two drops, three drops...... twenty drops!

  Finally, when refining the twentieth drop, Yang Yi's heart suddenly stopped, but immediately began to beat even more violently.

  "Knock knock knock"

  The heart beats rapidly, and inside the heart, a small drop of crimson essence begins to condense. This is the seventh drop of essence that has finally condensed.

  "Haha, haha, the seventh drop of essence has finally condensed!"

  These seven drops of essence and blood form a circle, each not invading the other. Every heartbeat extracts yuanqi power from the blood vessels to strengthen the essence and blood.

  Yang Yi then took a deep breath and refined the remaining four drops of essence, as well as the sixteen drops of essence from the strange black beast. As a result, the seventh drop of essence had barely condensed when it accumulated a rich and powerful energy, and its original crimson color gradually turned pitch black.

  It almost reached the peak of seven drops of essence and blood in an instant, extracting other people's essence and blood to refine it, its cultivation speed is simply terrifying, far surpassing those who cultivate alone by many times.

  But one spark, one peck, is not predetermined. Today's sweetness, tomorrow's bitterness, today's ease, tomorrow's difficulty. Until the blood coagulates five times, seven times, the golden elixir, or even transforms, the more mixed the blood vessels are, the stronger the essence and blood are, the harder it is to cultivate.

  "Humming"

  Yang Yi Meng suddenly opened his eyes, and his whole body was filled with a powerful aura. Wu Tian Ge slightly shook his head and said: "Brother Yang's progress is so rapid, it must be that he has refined those precious bloods. These precious bloods are equivalent to several decades or even hundreds of years of bitter cultivation by others. Today's cause will lead to tomorrow's effect. Brother Yang can only enjoy the thrill for a short while, but in the future, his cultivation will truly become extremely difficult."

  Yang Yi stood up, his eyes flashing with divine light, and laughed loudly: "Haha, today's affairs will be settled today, why worry about tomorrow? As the saying goes, when a cart reaches the foot of a mountain, there must be a road ahead. Heaven still leaves a thread of life, let alone cultivation matters! Who knows, Yang Mou might even transcend Liu brother and Wu brother to achieve enlightenment first, haha!"

  Wu Tianxia shook his head again and stopped talking. Yang Yi thought for a moment, knowing that he had been cultivating for a day and night. According to the time, Liu Qingyun's refining was almost done too.
