AST 585 - The Success of Aroma Concentration Pill, Visitors From The Central Continent
“Sister Chen. I’m just saying this, but if I am going to the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord in the future, would you be sad?” Qing Shui remembered he might need to go to the Central Continent after breaking through. He had to repay what he had been through. He could never forget the face of the Sky Tyrant Lord and his disdainful look.
“I am not related to the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord in any way. They have never treated me sincerely, so there is no reason for me to be obstinate about this. The Di Clan, Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord and I are not related in any way. My name is still Di Chen because this is the name my mother has given to me,” Di Chen lifted her head up and looked at Qing Shui with a smile.
Qing Shui felt relieved in his heart. He couldn’t really do much if Di Chen still thought fondly of that home. But seeing how she had left that place for so long, he knew that she shouldn’t be on a very good terms with the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord and the two were most likely very tense around each other.
He also knew that the affairs between them weren’t that simple from the words that the Sky Tyrant Lord had said before he left. Maybe he had not finished him off before because he had already considered him as good as a dead person.
Qing Shui had no idea if the commotion he had caused this time was a good or bad thing. He kept having the feeling that something was going to happen, and that it was going to involve him and the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord.
Qing Shui was aware that his current strength was inadequate to go against the Sky Tyrant Lord because he had estimated that his strength was either at Grade Two Martial Saint level or only at peak of Grade One Martial Saint level.
Nian Feng’s grandfather had mentioned that there was a Martial Saint Grade Four being in the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord. He didn’t know if there were any beings of higher level than that either, so all Qing Shui could do was wait and quickly increase his strength.
“Qing Shui, do not hurry. You are still not at the level to confront the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord. With your talent, your chances will be greater if you wait a little longer,” Di Chen quickly said after seeing the facial expression on Qing Shui’s face.
“I know. Don’t worry, Sister Chen. Just you wait a little longer. I will bring you to the Di Clan very soon,” Qing Shui said in determination.
Di Chen smiled at Qing Shui and then lowered her head to look at the little one in her arms. “Just the thought is more than enough. You still need to give her happiness as you are her support. The responsibilities on your shoulders will grow heavier.”
“I will be able to do it. Trust me.”
Di Chen was startled. She nodded at Qing Shui. “You are a wise person, I hope you won’t be reckless about this. Otherwise I can’t even bear to face them.”
Di Chen smiled and pointed to the little lass in her arms.
In the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal!
Qing Shui was diligently concocting medicinal pills because he was about to get the ‘Aroma Concentration Pill’ recipe soon. Although this pill only required an experience of 200,000, he still had some hope for it. It shouldn’t be more inferior than the Small Revitalizing Pellet.
Ding!
Qing Shui stopped as soon as he heard a familiar noise ringing out. He calmly immersed himself into his sea of consciousness and searched for the new Aroma Concentrating Pill recipe.
Ingredients: 1,000-Year Golden Turtle Grass, 1,000-Year Milkvetch, 1,000-Year Fleeceflower Root, 1,000-Year Requiem Grass, Hundred Color Flower, 1,000-Year Beast Blood, Violet Powder, Twin-headed Fish, Twin-headed Turtle, 100-Year Turtle Shell, Purifying Lotus.
Qing Shui let out a breath of relief after he finished reading the recipe. He could immediately get all of these ingredients out right now. The medicinal herbs that he had collected in the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal were fairly abundant already. He felt extremely satisfied being able to instantly retrieve all the ingredients stated on the recipe.
He was going to substitute the Twin-headed Fish and Twin-headed Turtle with 6,000 Year Golden Medicinal Turtle and Golden Pearl Essence of the more than 2,000 Year Clam. The Violet Powder can be substituted with Blood of the 1000 Year Clam while the rest were all available within the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal.
He happily continued reading the effects of the medicine pill next!
Effect: While asleep, the speed of cultivation is doubled, compared to cultivating while awake. Every pill lasts for six hours. Only one can be consumed every 24 hours.
Stunned, dumbfounded… Qing Shui didn’t know how to describe his feelings. This Aroma Concentration Pill had basically just indicated that it was possible to cultivate while sleeping. During those six hours, the speed of cultivation was twice that of cultivating during the normal hours. And the effect of Aroma Concentration Pill could last only six hours everyday.
One Aroma Concentration pill would amount to an average person’s hard work in a day. Six hours, double the effects… This medicinal pill was quite powerful. He could use the Spirit Concentrating Pill when he wasn’t sleeping and ingest the Aroma Concentration Pill before he slept.
Qing Shui placed his gaze at the bottom of it. The gap to the next Meridians Strengthening Pellet still required one million experience points!
He read again. There was no mistake that it was the Ren Meridian Strengthening Pellet. On top of that, it required a whopping one million experience points. The Ren Meridian was one of the biggest eight meridians in the human body, and it was also one of the most important meridians.
TL Note: The Ren Meridian is also known as the Conception Vessel.
He shook his head and stopped thinking. One million of experience points would require about one and half years. He should just concoct this Aroma Concentrating Pill first.
He started concocting as soon as he prepared all the ingredients. It unexpectedly went without a hitch. It wasn’t time-consuming because he could get twenty pills in a batch! Each pill was only the size of a grape.
He was already pretty exhausted by now so he immediately swallowed one pill before shutting his eyes as he quickly drifted into dreamland. If there was someone around him, that person would definitely be able to sense the circulating qi in Qing Shui’s body.
He slept like he did as usual, and woke up just six hours later without anyone bothering him. If he woke up in the middle and wanted to fall back asleep, he could go back to sleep any time. As expected of an Aroma Concentration Pill.
After Qing Shui woke up, not only had every trace of his fatigue had disappeared, he also felt fully rested and was at his tiptop condition. With this, he could conclude that this Aroma Concentration Pill was actually pretty heaven-defying.
