Chapter 303: Chapter 177: True Monarch of DanYang’s Request_1
Translator: 549690339
Upon hearing the words of Gold Sword Zen Ren, the complexion of the disciples present changed drastically. They did not expect that even with the master’s efforts, he only managed to refine a medium-grade Heaven Pill.
Their high hopes turned into disappointment. Considering the damage to Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng’s foundation, a medium-grade Heaven Pill might not be enough to fully restore it.
Qi Jing Yu stood stunned, shaking her head in disbelief, “Master, how is this possible? How could the Nascent Soul Ancestor only refine a medium-grade pill?”
At this moment, Zhou Yun Feng seemed unusually calm. He put his hand on Qi Jing Yu’s shoulder and gently patted, “Junior sister, it doesn’t matter. The Heaven Pill is a medicine that goes against the heavens and changes fate, and it’s extremely difficult to refine. Besides, a medium-grade pill will still have some effect.”
Gold Sword Zen Ren spoke indifferently, “As Yun Feng said, the difficulty of refining a Heaven Pill is higher than that of a Longevity Pill. Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch cannot guarantee that he can refine a top-grade pill.”
“Master, can Senior Dan Yang from Medicine God Valley refine a top-grade Heaven Pill?” Li Yuan Qing then asked.
At this moment, he felt as if a flame was burning in his heart, extremely uncomfortable. He had thought that today he might witness Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng making a full recovery and returning to the path of cultivation. However, after waiting for twenty years, all he got was nothing.
Gold Sword Zen Ren spoke slowly, “True Monarch of Dan Yang is the Nascent Soul Ancestor of Medicine God Valley who excels in the Alchemy Dao. If anyone in the Cultivation World can refine a top-grade Heaven Pill, it would be him. This is why Elder Xuan Qing sought him out.”
“Thank you, Master. Please convey my gratitude to the ancestor and provide me with the medicine.” Zhou Yun Feng bowed deeply with a fist.
Gold Sword Zen Ren slowly waved his hand, and a bottle of pills emerged out of thin air, flying toward Zhou Yun Feng, “There are no restrictions on taking the Heaven Pill. You can take these two pills at the same time.”
Zhou Yun Feng accepted the bottle with both hands. After opening it, two pills slowly flew out, emitting a faint glow. Even though they were just medium-grade pills, the aura they radiated was incomparable to higher-ranking pills.
Just like the color of the Sky Herb, these pills were a blend of green and blue, presenting an overall turquoise color, extremely beautiful.
Looking at these two pills, he nodded slightly to everyone and then took them. He crossed his legs and started to meditate, digesting the medicinal properties of these two medium-grade Heaven Pills.
Gold Sword Zen Ren slightly lifted his palm and set up a protective array around Zhou Yun Feng. He said to everyone, “The medicinal effects of these two Heaven Pills will probably take more than ten days to assimilate. If you have things to do, you can leave first.”
All the direct disciples stayed none left. Almost every one of them had received help from Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng at some time, and some had grown up under his care. At this critical moment of repairing the foundation, they would naturally not leave.
“Since no one is leaving, then everyone might as well sit down and cultivate here.” Gold Sword Zen Ren waved his hand and meditation cushions appeared behind everyone.
After thanking Gold Sword Zen Ren, everyone sat cross-legged. Some people closed their eyes to cultivate, while others kept their attention on Zhou Yun Feng, like Qi Jing Yu and Li Yuan Qing.
Lin Yi also closed his eyes and started practicing the Creation Method. With the rich spiritual energy in the Golden Sword Hall, under his current eighth level of Foundation Building, his normal cultivation, with the effects of various titles, would increase his cultivation levels by about one and a half in ten days.
Following his estimate of 1.5 levels of cultivation, it would take him nearly fifteen years to reach the Great Perfection at the 800-point eighth level of Foundation Building. And this is under the premise of ceaseless cultivation.
Now, as he’s getting ‘freebies’ from listening to the Foundation Building Stage Great Perfection cultivator’s lectures, he’s able to increase his cultivation by one point every fifteen hours. When he’s ‘leeching’ off Pill Immortal Master, his cultivation increases by nine points every hour.
If he had not received the learning title, even with the effects of other cultivation titles, it would still take nearly a hundred years to go from the first layer of Foundation Building to the ultimate tenth layer of Great Perfection.
If he did not have the help of titles, with his lower-grade spiritual roots, he would probably reach his lifespan before he could reach the Foundation Building Great Perfection.
Zhou Yun Feng, as a supreme-grade spirit root, reached Foundation Building at the age of twenty and reached Foundation Building Great Perfection before he turned one hundred, spending nearly eighty years.
Of course, as the top disciple of the Golden Sword Lineage, he naturally could not spend all day cultivating and definitely needed to handle other affairs.
However, the nearly one hundred years he estimated included the tenth layer of Foundation Building while the cultivation of other cultivators is considered to have reached Great Perfection at the ninth layer.
Since he has nothing else to do, cultivating more is always a good thing. According to the judgement of Pill Immortal Master, even a top-grade pill might not be able to completely repair Zhou Yun Feng’s foundation, let alone a medium-grade Heaven Pill.
While cultivating, Lin Yi was also pondering. If the True Monarch of Dan Yang from Medicine God Valley could only refine a top-grade Heaven Pill and still couldn’t fully recover the foundation, he would give up the idea of helping the Golden Sword Peak disciples get the Sky Herb.
Because even if he helped Golden Sword Peak disciples get the Sky Herb again, no one in the Cultivation World would be able to refine a supreme-grade Heaven Pill, and it would only be a waste.
Although the consumption of the Heaven Pill is different from the Longevity Pill and the Solidifying Pill used for breaking through the realm, there are no restrictions, but there is still tolerance if it is taken too much.
Moreover, the most significant factor in repairing the foundation is the quality of the pill and not the quantity. The difference in quality cannot be compensated by quantity.
