Lin Yi was well aware that these insights represented the considerable consumption of his Virtue Points. However, he had no time to worry about this, as he was fully engrossed in making the solidifying pill.
Gradually, under the effect of the alchemy fire, the elements once again merged and continuously compressed inward, taking the shape of a golden core.
But this golden core seemed a bit large and displayed three different colors – Violet symbolizing thunder and lightning, blue representing wind, and gold representing the original color of the golden core itself, with gold being the dominant color.
As the process of coagulation progressed, it seemed to become more demanding and the speed gradually slowed down. Lin Yi gathered his entire attention, daring not to slack off even a bit. The more he reached the end, the bigger the risk became.
Inside his cultivation cave mansion, Zhang Dao Xuan appeared calm while waiting. However, internally he was getting anxious as he could not sense the true situation within Lin Yi’s Dantian. All he saw was a typical foundation building fourth-layer cultivation level, with no sign of solidifying pill formation.
He couldn’t help but curse inwardly. This boy was still concealing his real cultivation level while establishing the golden core.
As time went by, the spiritual liquid in Lin Yi’s body was gradually solidified into a golden core under continued compression and refining, proving the feasibility of making golden cores.
However, in the final step of solidifying the pill, he suddenly felt a form of weakness. It was not physical weakness but the weakness of the solidifying pill, as if it was missing some crucial energy.
He tried to intensify the alchemy fire, but to no avail. He was just one step away from creating the golden core, but it had stagnated, and the spiritual liquid, which had solidified to form the golden core, showed signs of dispersing.
The path of cultivation progresses only when you move forward; the same goes for making the golden core.
No matter what method Lin Yi tried, he could not progress any further with the solidifying pill. Running out of options, he hastily shouted, “Master, open the storage bag on me and put two supreme-grade gold coagulation pills in my mouth.”
If he wasn’t able to take this final step with his own abilities, he could only rely on external help.
The golden coagulation pills he had crafted himself had a 45% improvement in quality. Originally, a supreme-grade gold coagulation pill had a 50% chance of solidifying successfully, and now with an additional 45% quality, it was much higher.
Zhang Dao Xuan immediately opened Lin Yi’s storage bag, extracted two supreme-grade gold coagulation pills, and put them into Lin Yi’s mouth.
The pills melted as soon as they entered his mouth and instantly transformed into energy, entering his Dantian. With the influx of this energy, the solidifying pill process, which had initially stopped and even shown signs of regression, began to progress again.
A smile appeared on Lin Yi’s face. He continued to speak, “Master, retrieve all the gold coagulation pills. I might need to take them at any time.”
“I’ve already taken them all out. Are you preparing to eat beans? You’re preparing so many gold coagulation pills,” Zhang Dao Xuan, looking at over a hundred gold coagulation pills helplessly, replied.
During the subsequent alchemy process, whenever there was any stagnation, Lin Yi would continue taking the gold coagulation pills. Finally, the solidifying pill successfully took the last step, started absorbing nature’s spiritual energy, and automatically solidified.
Upon seeing this, he exhibited a look of excitement. Now, all the refinement work had been finished, he couldn’t control anything—a success or failure was entirely up to fate.
The surrounding nature’s spiritual energy gathered here like crazy, providing even more energy for the final solidification.
The sky above Lake Heart Island was filled with unusual phenomena. The dense spiritual energy gathered over the island, forming a whirlwind like a funnel, pouring into Lin Yi’s body.
Zhang Dao Xuan also sensed the situation outside. An exciting look appeared on his face — great success was at hand. He was thrilled that something he hadn’t accomplished was finally achieved by his disciple.
In various areas surrounding the cave mansion, monster beasts seemed to sense something, looking fearfully in the direction of the cave mansion.
In the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden, Zhi Ling and the Golden Ape, from their high vantage point, saw the large spiritual energy whirlwind over the cave mansion.
Zhi Ling went to the edge of the herb garden, anxiously watching the whirlwind in the distance. It seemed to sense that this was something its owner was experiencing.
The Golden Ape quickly stepped to its side, gently placing it on its palm, and laughed, “Lin Yi will definitely succeed. I’m still waiting for him to make food for me.”
Zhi Ling looked at the Golden Ape, and it chirped in dissatisfaction as if saying, “All you think about is eating.”
Despite the golden core automatically absorbing spiritual energy to complete this final step inside the cultivation cave mansion, Lin Yi dared not relax by even a bit, watching tensely.
Suddenly, the Wind-Thunder Element integrated into the golden core burst out with dazzling light, causing the golden core’s consolidation process to pause once again.
Seeing this, his face changed — could it be that the Wind-Thunder Element was affecting the final solidification of the core? It had been very stable before, why erupt with light in the critical moment?
