Chapter 45 - Supreme-grade Pills (1/2)
Senior Ye was also amazed at the grade of the pills Yun Shu made.
It was incredible that the young man could grasp the first four levels of Yin and Yang in his first attempt. This boy is indeed extraordinary. Ye thought so to himself.
However, after the initial joy faded away, Yun Shu started to become unsatisfied with his progress.
“Earlier, I made a couple of mistakes…” murmured Yun Shu.
Meanwhile, he threw more ingredients into the furnace without the slightest hesitation and started his second round of concoction.
Seeing that, Ye shook his head and smiled. “Boy, you need to remain patient and take one step at a time. You’ve come to understand the fourth level of Yin and Yang, which is already quite good. I’m afraid that it will cost you a year or so to reach the next level.”
Yun Shu didn’t respond to Senior Ye’s words, just silently staring at the furnace in front of him.
Senior Ye shook his head. “Well, youngsters tend to be reckless, aiming for heavens in a single bound. Let him fall once so that he can understand!” Ye murmured to himself.
On the other side, Yun Shu had totally devoted himself to refining his second set of pills. With the prior experience to learn from, the process turned out to be much smoother this time.
Within an hour, the second batch of pills was ready.
After Yun Shu pulled back his Spirit Qi, Senior Ye said with a smile, “My technique is the best pill concoction method in this world. Don’t get too ambitious, young man—”
However, Yun Shu had already opened the lid before Senior Ye finished his comment.
“Huh?!” Staring at the furnace and the twenty pills inside, Senior Ye swallowed back the rest of the words.
All of the twenty pills were Fine-grade!
Yun Shu had made another breakthrough in his skill of refining pills!
Senior Ye became speechless. The success rate proved that Yun Shu had come to understand the fifth level of Yin and Yang. How did he do that?
However, that still didn’t satisfy Yun Shu.
That was because Yun Shu knew that there were still mistakes during the process. He believed that he had clearly understood the sixth level of Yin and Yang, but he didn’t do a good enough job. He didn’t want to stop.
“I’ll attempt once more! And this time… I’ll try this!” he muttered to himself. After putting the ingredients into the furnace, Yun Shu used his golden pupils.
Because of the angle, Ye couldn’t see Yun Shu’s eyes. But the moment Yun Shu opened his golden pupils, he instantly felt the difference in Yun Shu’s Qi.
Ye wondered if the boy would surprise him again. Yun Shu grasping the fourth level of Yin and Yang at his first attempt was already a satisfying outcome for Senior Ye. But now, he had apparently mastered the fifth level.
The rapid progress shocked Senior Ye.
And it seemed that Yun Shu was going to further challenge himself!
This made him both nervous and excited!
Many years ago, it took Senior Ye three whole years to grasp the sixth level of Yin and Yang. He wondered if Yun Shu was going to be able to comprehend it in a few hours.
At this time, Yun Shu’s golden pupils stared at the furnace without blinking as his Spirit Qi kept circulating in the furnace smoothly.
The Nine Yin-Yang Refining Scripture emphasized the combination of Yin and Yang and the formation of a cycle of chaos.
At the same time, there were more Yin and Yang revolutions within the bigger cycle, compelling it to continuously flow, just like the gears in a machine.
The cycles were connected and intertwined with each other, so it was increasingly difficult to decipher the next level.
