By then, even if the pills refined from these two Sky Herbs are not enough to fully repair his foundation, he could produce some more; he could even refine Heaven Pills himself.
Zhou Yun Feng is still under one hundred and eighty years old, with more than seventy years left before his lifespan runs out. So much time would be enough for him to break through two more ranks.
After a high-rank Alchemist comes the Spirit Level, able to refine pills used by the Nascent Soul True Monarchs. Afterwards come Earth Rank, and Heaven Rank.
In the entire Heng Yuan World, Alchemists capable of reaching Spirit Level can be counted on one’s fingers, most of them being Nascent Soul True Monarchs who love Alchemy. It is almost unheard of for a cultivator to achieve Spirit Level Alchemist status at the Golden Core stage.
Even Medicine God Valley, which mainly focuses on Alchemy, does not have such Alchemy prodigies.
“It’s fine, he can’t keep up this act for long. Let’s go visit Miss Liu. Ever since she regained her sanity, she’s been wanting to see you.” Qi Jing Yu snorted lightly, grabbing Lin Yi’s arm and walking into the courtyard.
The space of the Cave Mansion of a second Disciple in the Golden Sword Lineage was not outrageously large, just slightly bigger than his previous residence in the Jin Qiao Peak Cave Mansion.
On the way, Qi Jing Yu reminded Lin Yi of a few things. He should try not to mention Feng Yu Cheng or related matters, to avoid stirring up painful memories.
Liu Qiao Ling was living in a small courtyard within the Cave Mansion. Like before, there were small bridges and flowing streams, and flowers planted all around. In the stream, there were even some fairy cranes, creating a picturesque scene resembling paradise.
A woman in a white dress was lying on the railing of the viewing platform, looking blankly at the fairy cranes in the stream. She didn’t notice their arrival.
Qi Jing Yu slowly walked up behind Liu Qiao Ling and whispered, “Little Ling, I’ve brought Junior Brother Lin Yi over. He also wanted to see you.”
Upon hearing Qi Jing Yu’s words, Liu Qiao Ling seemed to snap back to reality. She quickly straightened her appearance and turned around swiftly, scanning her surroundings before looking at Lin Yi.
When she was rescued in Jade Peak City, her condition was dreadful, resembling neither a human nor a ghost. However, now she had regained a bit of her original demeanor, although her complexion was pale and her face gave off a weak expression due to lack of vitality.
Next, Liu Qiao Ling quickly approached, sniffing repeatedly in front of Lin Yi. Finally confirming the familiar scent, a look of excitement appeared on her face.
Over the years, she had kept this scent in her mind, not daring to forget it for a moment.
Once confirmed, without any hesitation, she knelt on the ground, “My savior….”
Lin Yi quickly reached out to support her, “Miss Liu, no need for such formalities. I accept your gratitude.”
But Liu Qiao Ling’s face was firm, “Savior, you saved me twice. If I don’t thank you with this gesture, I would rather die.”
Seeing this, Lin Yi had no choice but to let go of his hand. Liu Qiao Ling knelt on the ground, bowing to Lin Yi, “Thank you, Savior, for the great kindness of saving my life. I am an impure woman in this life, and promise to work like a horse and cow in the next life to repay your great kindness.”
“Miss Liu, please get up. There’s no need to wait for the next life, you can do it in this one. I’ve heard you’re skilled in business calculations. I have some business in Qing Yun City. Once you’ve recovered, you can help me manage things,” Lin Yi quickly raised his hand, using spiritual power to help Liu Qiao Ling get up and smiled and said.
Him saying this was just to temporarily give her some will to live. As for Liu Qiao Ling’s subsequent arrangements, Gold Sword Zen Ren had already made decisions.
Once Liu Qiao Ling recovers more or less fully, Sect Master Green Jade Zen Ren then would erase her painful memories and arrange for her to stay at Qing Yun City.
Green Jade Zen Ren has a magical Treasure Mirror that ranks as a Spiritual Treasure. It certainly wouldn’t have caused so much fear among others if it didn’t have many magical uses, such as viewing and erasing memories.
Of course, this only applies to a common person’s memories. Covertly erasing a cultivator’s memories is still somewhat difficult.
He greatly approves of his teacher’s decision. Only by erasing these memories can this woman have a happy later life.
Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, Liu Qiao Ling’s eyes lit up. She quickly nodded, “Alright, thank you for giving me the opportunity to repay you.”
Lin Yi gently nodded, smiled, and said, “Miss Liu, take care and rest well. I won’t disturb you any longer.”
After saying goodbye, Liu Qiao Ling insisted on escorting them to the entrance of the Cave Mansion, watching them leave.
At the ferry platform of Gold Jade Peak, Lin Yi expressed his gratitude to Qi Jing Yu, “Sister, thank you for taking care of Miss Liu. This was originally a mess I had started.”
“As siblings of the same Master, there’s no need for such formality. Practice well and strive to surpass your Senior Brother early,” Qi Jing Yu waved off with a smile, then encouraged.
“I will try my best to fulfill Sister’s command, even at the cost of my life. I won’t rest from now on.” Lin Yi made a joke along with her words.
Qi Jing Yu could not help but chuckle, glancing at Zhou Yun Feng, she spoke to Lin Yi, “You should also pay attention to rest. Don’t be like your Senior Brother, only focusing on cultivation. Find an appropriate companion and enjoy some sweet, blissful life. Perhaps, it could also help you in understanding cultivation.”
“If there are female disciples you are fond of, and you feel shy about it, you can tell Sister. I will mediate for you.”
Lin Yi felt a headache. He hadn’t expected that he couldn’t escape the fate of being urged to marry after becoming a direct disciple of the inner sect. He quickly shook his head and said, “Sister, I don’t have such thoughts for now. I have just reached Foundation Establishment, so let’s focus on cultivation first.”
He often comes and goes from the secret realm and carries many secrets. It is not suitable for him to find a companion right now.
And as for the title “Color is Void”, he had some deep suspicion. It would take some time to verify; he can’t afford to fail now.
After thinking about it, Qi Jing Yu felt that what Lin Yi said also made sense. “Indeed, you have just entered Foundation Establishment. There are many things you need to cultivate. Concentrate on cultivation for now. When you want to find a companion in the future, tell Sister.”
“Thank you, Sister.” Lin Yi bowed with a fist, then quickly left Gold Jade Peak with his Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng.
“Younger brother, I think your sister is right. You might consider finding a suitable companion,” Zhou Yun Feng happily said while flying in the sky on their swords.
Lin Yi, completely unfazed, replied with a smile, “Hehe, as the Senior Brother, you should set an example first.”
“Cough, I must take my leave.” Zhou Yun Feng abruptly changed direction without another word.
Seeing the rushed departure of Zhou Yun Feng, Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh out loud. After returning to the cave mansion of Golden Sword Peak, he began to refine the Gathering Yuan Pill, which increases cultivation levels at the Golden Core Realm.
This was to verify whether the refinement of this type of pill would increase the experience value of the Alchemy Furnace Talisman.
He still used the Piano-refining Alchemy Technique. He had received guidance from Pill Immortal Master and had developed some understanding about the method.
However, he failed the first time. He immediately used the chance for Enlightenment.
During the second attempt to refine the Gathering Yuan Pill, with the help of the failure from the first time, Lin Yi got some insights about the piano-refining technique and finally succeeded in refining it, yielding a medium-grade Gathering Yuan Pill.
But, there were no pop-up windows in front of him.
Previously, when he refined a medium-grade Gold Coagulation Pill, it increased his experience by a bit. But the medium-grade Gathering Yuan Pill didn’t have any effects now.
Could it be that only the Gold Coagulation Pill could increase his experience? It should not be like that.
It was useless to ask the Title System, Lin Yi stared at the Alchemy Furnace Talisman in front of him, sending in a Divine Intent, “Little Furnace, what kind of high-level pill should I refine to be helpful to you?”
Soon, Divine Intent from the Alchemy Furnace Talisman returned. After sensing its content, Lin Yi immediately understood.
The Alchemy Furnace Talisman would absorb the residual medicine power during alchemy to improve itself. With a pill like the Gold Coagulation Pill, a medium-grade one could already be helpful.
If it is a pill with lesser difficulty like the Gathering Yuan Pill, only a top-grade one would be helpful.
After giving it some thought, Lin Yi decided to first refine the Gathering Yuan Pill to bolster his alchemy skills, technique, and Title’s experience, because it was the least time-consuming among advanced pills.
