It includes three alchemy recipes from Mo Xi’s Sea of Consciousness and five alchemy recipes recorded in Feng Wanwan’s manuscripts.
What is astonishing is that, being alchemy ingredients of the same grade, those elixirs made using Feng Wanwan’s recipes would immediately burst and become destroyed upon contact with Green Liquid.
The recipes from the Mo Xi Treasure Book, however, performed excellently. Whether it was the True Dark Pill or the Durian Pill, both underwent pleasing transformations after merging with the Green Liquid.
The True Dark Pill was the first type of elixir Yue Jinghua crafted, which originally allowed Dark Practitioners below the Jade Dark level to advance one rank immediately upon consumption. However, the True Dark Pill that absorbed some Green Liquid broke the initial consumption restriction of being effective only for those below the Jade Dark level.
After consuming one of these improved True Dark Pills, Yue Jinghua leapt from the minor success stage of the Dark Earth Realm straight to Dark Earth Great Success.
Yue Jinghua decisively renamed the improved True Dark Pill to Dark Earth Pill. The appearance of the Dark Earth Pill was undoubtedly tremendous news for the current Yue Jinghua.
The words Xie Yu left behind made Yue Jinghua more vigilant. Be it the Thousand-Handed Yama, the Blue Crystal, or the mysterious force contending for the Devil Crystal, none of them could be underestimated.
Although Yue Jinghua had now reached the Dark Earth Realm and possessed extraordinary techniques, she had offended several power factions.
The nearby Lie Family Mansion’s people, the eagle-eyed Fa Xiaoyi, the inscrutable Sha Fei, and the repeated traps set by hidden foes—all these factions required constant alertness.
On the other hand, Yue Jinghua’s own people included only Hongling, Hong Yao, and several semi-competent Dark Beasts.
Last night, when Yue Jinghua went to pick up Yue Chen, although she didn’t directly intrude into the Spirit Wood Garden, she keenly noticed several figures quickly retreating, seemingly the Lie Yiwei guards from inside the castle.
With the Pill Master assessment drawing near, in order to avoid being attacked from both sides, Yue Jinghua had already instructed Hongling to enhance the security around Jingxin Courtyard and Yue Chen. What she could do now was to strengthen herself, not only herself but also those around her.
Luckily, her few subordinates, as close as sisters, were all very encouraging. Just half a month ago, Hongling had broken through to the Dark Earth Realm, hence the True Dark Pill was no longer useful to her. As for Hong Yao, although still in the Dark Jade Realm, she had previously consumed a True Dark Pill, and consuming it again would be useless.
The appearance of the Dark Earth Pill could directly propel them to a higher level in the Dark Realm, where a little more strength equals a higher chance of success.
The improvement of the True Dark Pill was delightful, as was the Durian Pill, originally having a strange taste and slowly restoring Dark Energy over a month. The Green Lotus Pill, improved with Green Liquid, allowed someone like Yue Jinghua in the Dark Earth stage to restore consumed Dark Energy in three breaths as if a volcano erupting in the Dantian, but this pill has a downside; once its effects wear off, Dark Energy cannot be used for three days.
Compared to the previous slowly effective Durian Pill, this new elixir called "Volcano Pill" by Yue Jinghua seemed to be an excellent Spirit Pill for escaping enemies.
The elixirs from the Mo Xi Treasure Book clearly showed better suitability for modifications with Green Liquid, unlike Feng Wanwan’s manuscript recipes, which were quite disappointing in terms of improvements.
After selecting dozens of elixirs, none could withstand the modification using Green Liquid; however, while searching among the recipes, Yue Jinghua discovered a new type of elixir.
This elixir, also the only one suitable for Dark Beasts’ consumption in Feng Wanwan’s manuscripts.
After becoming a Pill Master, unlike other Pill Masters, Feng Wanwan often did not charge fees for her pill crafting and treatments; she treated the poor for free. For Dark Practitioners, she adopted a barter system, exchanging various rare and peculiar items for corresponding elixir pills.
This elixir called "Beast King Pill" was given to Feng Wanwan as a trade by a Middle-level Spirit Tamer. It was said that this alchemy recipe was handed down from his ancestors, crafted from a type of red mineral resembling jade, which had already become extinct on the continent.
Feng Wanwan herself had not crafted this elixir, as she couldn’t find the said red mineral. Yet, she still recorded the appearance of the mineral and the recipe for the "Beast King Pill."
Coincidently, Yue Jinghua compared the two pieces of Blood Essence she had on hand with the mineral sketch left by Feng Wanwan, and discovered they were the same.
Without delay, Yue Jinghua immediately began crafting the fourth new elixir, the Beast King Pill, long extinct on the Canglong Continent.
Blue petals delicately blossom, blooming; a drop of Green Liquid falls from the center of the lotus. After the Green Liquid falls, the green lotus bud slowly closes.
The Chaotic Green Lotus Fire dances elegantly in the palm; droplet-shaped Green Liquid instantly vaporizes into a puff of green mist, while the two Blood Essences rapidly dissolve into blood mist.
The merging blue and red mists appear as if being intensely compressed by a mighty force, contracting vigorously until they form several pills.
With the Taiji patterns on their blue and red surfaces, Yue Jinghua flicks her fingertips, making the ten elixirs sound like "ding-dang", lining up in a straight line as they’re stored into the Desire Gourd.
Feng Wanwan’s manuscript clearly states that this elixir benefits the growth and rank advancement of Dark Beasts significantly.
Unfortunately, the supply of Blood Essence is sparse, with only two pieces; hence, only two bottles and twenty Beast King Pills were crafted.
With the new elixirs available, testing them is imperative, especially since the Beast King Pills, extinct for many years on the continent, Yue Jinghua was eager to know their effects.
"Who should test it first? Cannibal Small Qingpu is a Lifebound Summon and belongs to the Spirit Wood Species, it can’t be risked. Flash Mink Leopard is only a Mid-level Dark Beast, too risky to use for testing. Let’s use the Gold Eater Worm, its tough skin and meat can withstand some rough handling," Yue Jinghua decided, and as her Divine Sense swept out, just about to summon the Gold Eater Worm,
Just then, a shiver runs deep within her Divine Sense, "Oh no, the Dark Beasts are in danger," Yue Jinghua exclaimed in shock.
