122: Pure Yang Pill

On the other side, Han Ruyi led Yao Delong to an extremely elegant and secluded courtyard deep within the City Lord's Mansion.

Pavilions, towers, Spiritual Springs, and rockeries filled the area, and the concentration of Spiritual Qi far surpassed the outside world. It was clearly one of the best guest quarters in the residence.

"Fellow Daoist Yao, please rest here peacefully. If you require anything, just instruct the attendant outside the courtyard."

Han Ruyi guided Yao Delong into a quiet room, luxuriously yet tastefully decorated, speaking with a respectful tone.

She took a deep breath and carefully retrieved a smooth, warm Jade Slip from her storage ring,

offering it with both hands, her eyes filled with anticipation and pleading:

"Fellow Daoist Yao, this is the Pill Formula for the nine revolutions purification elixir. Our City Lord's Mansion has spent decades of effort and exhausted its resources.

We barely managed to gather three sets of Spiritual Materials... We entrust everything to you, Fellow Daoist!"

Yao Delong accepted the Jade Slip, which felt warm to the touch. When his Divine Sense probed it, a massive amount of information immediately flooded his mind:

The sixth-tier Medium Grade Pill Formula for the nine revolutions purification elixir, including the detailed ratios, required ages, and processing methods for dozens of rare Spiritual Materials;

The extreme requirements for heat control during the Alchemy process, the sequence of material melting, the critical points for medicinal property Fusion,

as well as the various anomalies that might occur during pill condensation and the methods to deal with them... The complexity and precision of the information far surpassed ordinary Pill Formulas.

Even with Yao Delong's peak Alchemy attainments, he needed to focus his mind and calmly deduce the process now.

He closed his eyes for a moment, and countless light and shadow images flowed through his mind, simulating the refining process. After about the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn,

he opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing and fading away. He had already thoroughly mastered the method for refining this sixth-grade Spirit Pill.

"The Pill Formula is exquisite, and the processing of the Spiritual Materials also requires caution."

Yao Delong looked at Han Ruyi, his tone calm but carrying a persuasive power,

"Tomorrow at noon, when the Yang Qi is at its peak, the Alchemy can begin. If there are no accidents, success should be achieved."

"Tomorrow?!"

Han Ruyi was so pleasantly surprised she nearly jumped up. The nightmare that had plagued her father for decades finally saw the dawn!

She suppressed her excitement and bowed deeply to Yao Delong again, her voice choked with emotion:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yao! Han Ruyi will never forget this kindness and virtue!"

After Han Ruyi departed, filled with excitement and hope, the door to the quiet room slowly closed.

The calmness on Yao Delong's face instantly receded, replaced by a trace of solemnity.

He walked to the window, gazing at the invisible defensive Formation halo above the City Lord's Mansion, his eyes deep.

"Bichu City... I cannot stay long."

He muttered softly. Whether it was the strange Devilish Qi hidden within the demonic poison, or the covetousness that his displayed methods might attract,

all indicated that this was not a place for him to linger. He had to resolve Han Tianzheng's problem quickly and then leave.

Expelling the bone-deep demonic poison required the nine revolutions purification elixir, but clearing the Devilish Qi entwining the Divine Soul,

required continuous nourishment and cleansing from extremely Pure Yang Power, which could not be achieved in a single day. He could not remain here long-term.

As his thoughts raced, Yao Delong already had a plan.

He waved his hand, setting up several simple isolation Restrictions, and then sat down cross-legged.

A seemingly ordinary, even somewhat antiquated, bronze Pill Furnace appeared before him.

The body of the furnace was plain and lacked much spiritual light; it was his previous Spiritual Artifact Pill Furnace.

Next, he took out several common restorative Spiritual Materials:

Century-old Qi-Nourishing Grass, Spirit-Calming Flowers, Yuan-Warming Fruits... These medicinal materials were not high-grade and could be found everywhere in the market.

Yao Delong flicked his finger, and a wisp of pure Yuan Power ignited the furnace fire.

He did not use the Life-Generating Creation Fire, but merely used his own pure Yuan Power to drive an ordinary flame.

The technique seemed unremarkable, yet it carried a rhythm of returning to simplicity.

The Spiritual Materials were thrown into the Pill Furnace one by one, rapidly melting and being purified in the flame.

Just at the crucial moment when the medicinal liquid was about to undergo Fusion and condense into a pill,

Yao Delong's gaze sharpened. He carefully separated a wisp of the purest Pure Yang Yuan Power from his Dantian.

This wisp, like a golden stream, silently and seamlessly integrated into the churning medicinal liquid!

*Buzz!*

A low hum resonated inside the Pill Furnace, and the originally unremarkable medicinal liquid

instantly became covered in a faint golden glow. A warm, pure, and righteous Yang aura, capable of dispelling evil and corruption, spread throughout the room!

Yao Delong's ten fingers danced, and the Fire Control Incantation Seals changed unpredictably, perfectly locking that Pure Yang Power into the core of the Medicinal Pill.

The furnace fire gradually extinguished, and the pill fragrance wafted everywhere.

The furnace lid was lifted, revealing over a dozen Medicinal Pills, each the size of a longan, perfectly round, and smooth like jade, resting quietly at the bottom of the furnace.

Fine, golden-red pill patterns faintly circulated on the surface of the Medicinal Pills, radiating a warmth that calmed the mind.

Moreover, they contained a trace of incomparably pure Pure Yang Origin Power!

"Pure Yang Pill..." Yao Delong looked at the Medicinal Pills in the furnace, a satisfied curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

This pill seemed like a common restorative Medicinal Pill, but the Pure Yang Power contained in its core

was precisely the key to continuously nourishing and expelling the Devilish Qi within Han Tianzheng!

With this Medicinal Pill, he wouldn't need to constantly watch over him!

He waved his hand, collecting the Medicinal Pills and the Pill Furnace, and the quiet room returned to silence.

Yao Delong closed his eyes to meditate and regulate his breath, conserving energy for the refinement of the sixth-grade Spirit Pill tomorrow.

Early the next morning, the sky was faintly lit.

Inside the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, the atmosphere was solemn yet tinged with an uncontrollable anticipation.

Madam Liu sat in the main seat, her demeanor still graceful, but a hint of imperceptible nervousness was hidden deep in her eyes.

Han Ruyi stood attending nearby, unconsciously twisting the corner of her clothes, her gaze frequently directed outside the hall.

Master Zhou sat in the guest seat, resting with his eyes closed, but his slightly trembling fingertips betrayed his inner turmoil.

When Yao Delong's simple gray-robed figure appeared at the hall entrance, the gazes of all three instantly focused on him.

"Fellow Daoist Yao, did you rest well last night?"

Madam Liu immediately rose, putting on the most sincere smile, and asked with concern.

Yao Delong nodded slightly, his expression calm and unperturbed:

"Adequate." He scanned the hall with his gaze, then raised his hand.

A smooth white jade vial, enveloped by pure Yuan Power, slowly drifted toward Madam Liu.

"Madam Liu, This Yao, has important matters to attend to and cannot remain in the mansion indefinitely to completely expel the Devilish Qi for the City Lord."

Yao Delong's voice was clear and steady,

"This is the 'Pure Yang Pill' I refined last night, containing a trace of extreme Yang Origin.

Give one pill to the City Lord daily for half a month. Supplemented with quiet recuperation, the Devilish Qi in his body can be completely eradicated.

This pill also has the effect of nourishing the Meridians and repairing the damage caused by the demonic poison."

Madam Liu quickly accepted the jade vial with both hands. It felt warm to the touch,

and she could faintly sense the pure, righteous Yang aura emanating from the Medicinal Pills inside, dispelling the slight chill of the morning.

She felt both gratitude and shock; to be able to refine such a perfectly targeted miraculous pill overnight—such methods were simply unheard of!

"Fellow Daoist Yao's great kindness, I will bear it in mind!"

Madam Liu thanked him solemnly, then said to Han Ruyi:

"Yi'er, you stay here and accompany Fellow Daoist Yao and Master Zhou. Your mother will be back shortly."

She was anxious in her heart, wanting to immediately let her husband take the pill to see the effect.
