Chapter 8: Abracadabra Pill

Ye Tian Yun's shout echoed through the mansion as Butler Liu came running.

"Yes, Master. Your servant is here." Butler Liu said, with no change in his breathing. Perks of high cultivation.

"Butler Liu, what do you think of my talent?" Ye Tian Yun asked with a smug look on his face.

"Master, I don't think I believe in you. You are the most talented person I have ever known about. With your unmatched cultivation talent and demeanor, you will, no doubt, one day rule this realm. Your birth signified a rise of a new era, your own era." Butler Liu tried his best in bootlicking, with the best mesmerizing expression he could make.

"Indeed, you know your words. Here, eat this. I have tried my hands on alchemy. Have this as your reward for your answer." Ye Tian Yun took out the Dreamscape pill and moved his hands ahead, gesturing to Butler Liu to take it.

"Uh… Master… you may not know, but today is my fast." Butler Liu stammered even took two steps back, getting away from the pill.

"Fast? Since when you started fasting? With your boggling tummy, I can't help but doubt your words, or is it that you don't like my rewards and it's too low for you? Do you even know what I am giving you?" Ye Tian Yun remarked back, trying to sound as if he was angered at his servant's insolence.

"No, Master. It's nothing like that. It's an honor for me two have your gifts. But, I don't know what these pills are; I may waste this precious gift." Butler Liu reasoned himself with an innocent-sounding voice.

"You don't have to worry about anything. I personally made this pill from an Ancient Alchemy Manual I received in my last visit to Grand Alchemy Hall Library. This pill is the Abracadabra Pill. It will make your upcoming breakthroughs much easier." Ye Tian Yun said whatever bullshit came into his mind.

"An easier breakthrough!?" Butler Liu couldn't help but shout in shock. One must know that the higher your cultivation, the more difficult it is to breakthrough. And for an old Half Saint powerhouse like Butler Liu here, there is no more hope to break through to the Saint Realm. Just the thought of a breakthrough could make an old foggy like Butler Liu excited.

He moved ahead and, in an instant, grabbed the pills from Ye Tian Yun's hand and bowed in front of him, "Thank you, Master. This old servant will forever remember this grace. You have given more than just a pill. You have given me hope to live longer."

Ye Tian Yun smiled and replied, "Oh, you don't have to say such things. You are my most trusted confidante. And you have helped me a lot and have taken care of me all these years. It's just a small gift from me. Come on now, eat the pill."

"Eat? Now? But Master, this is such a precious pill, I should prepare a good place for cultivation." Butler Liu was bewildered. How could he eat this pill? Isn't this supposed to be very precious? Such a precious thing, and to eat it like candy, he couldn't bear it. It was blasphemy.

"No, eat it now, here, in front of me. By the time you prepare everything, its effect will be lost. Hurry up! Eat it." Ye Tian Yun literally wanted to take the pill from Butler Liu's hands and force it in Liu's mouth.

"But…"

"No buts!" Ye Tian Yun forced him once again, "You have the pill right now, or I will give it to someone else..!"

Before Ye Tian Yun could finish his sentence, Butler Liu moved his hands and put the pill in his mouth. He couldn't let this once in a lifetime opportunity to break through the Saint Realm go away just because of some etiquette.

Ye Tian Yun smiled and said, "Great job! Now come in fast, enter this cultivation chamber and absorb and digest the pill." He moved aside and gestured to Butler Liu to enter the cultivation chamber.

"Yes, Master. I won't let this go to waste." Butler Liu entered the room without hesitation.

Ye Tian Yun smiled as he thought how easily his first step to escape was now a success. He asked, 'System, how long do you think Butler Liu will be under the effects of the Dreamscape Pill?'

[Host doesn't need to worry. The victim is very excited to sleep, and for the few weeks, not even an Immortal can wake him up]

'Ha-ha, good to hear. Sigh, rebirth has indeed made me clever.'

[Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity]

'...Can you, for once, praise me?'

[Host, intelligence is like underwear. It is important that you have it, but not necessary that you show it off]

'...'

Ye Tian Yun gritted his teeth and looked around. After observing that no one was present, he turned around and entered the cultivation chamber, closing the gates soon after.

When he came in and looked at the scene, he was astonished. Not even a minute has passed as Butler Liu ate the 'Abracadabra pill,' and now, a Half Saint Realm powerhouse like him was now lying on the floor headfirst.

This really showed the pill's power and its huge effect even on cultivators with high cultivation.

"Tsk-tsk, I am really sorry, Butler Liu, but this is for the greater good. Generations to come will remember your sacrifice." Ye Tian Yun nodded his head as he finished his sentence.

"Now, let's turn him around. System, bring out the Aura Replication Pill, time to go to the next stage." He bent down and cut Butler Liu's palm, preparing to use his Thousand Faced Death skill. He collected some blood and took the Aura Replication Pill, and touched Butler Liu's forehead with it.

"Time to be my own Butler."
