44: lingering fear

Nangong Yu's eyes flashed with a hint of inquiry, then he took out the remaining three sets of Spirit Medicine for the rejuvenation pill.

He saw that void feather still “sensibly” cleaned the inside of the Medicine Cauldron on its own, always ready.

Seeing this, Nangong Yu nodded slightly, then began to warm the Medicine Cauldron to prepare for Alchemy.

A moment later, as he expected, void feather was indeed helping him speed up the process of refining the Spirit Medicine.

Moreover, based on the first time refining the rejuvenation pill, this time he clearly felt that at a certain moment, the Pill Fire temperature inside the Medicine Cauldron was regulated, and subtle changes occurred.

In other words, void feather was really helping him!

He just didn't know what the result would be. If it was as good as last time, that would be wonderful.

Half an hour later, seeing that all the Spirit Medicine had been refined, Nangong Yu began to form hand seals and cast pill-condensing runes.

Before long, void feather vibrated slightly, clearly indicating that the pill condensation was complete.

This time, Nangong Yu clearly felt another change: when his Pill Fire control showed a subtle change in cooling, void feather obviously adjusted itself, keeping the cooling at a perfect level.

Afterward, once the Medicine Cauldron's temperature dropped to normal, Nangong Yu withdrew his Pill Fire and opened the Medicine Cauldron, only to see thirty Medicinal Pills quietly lying inside.

He used spiritual energy to draw out the rejuvenation pills, and saw that all 30 rejuvenation pills were special grade rejuvenation pills!

Seeing this, Nangong Yu couldn't help but glance at void feather, a hint of joy in his eyes.

He hadn't expected that void feather seemed to be able to remember the process of the Medicinal Pills he had previously refined, helping him regulate the Pill Fire to speed up the Spirit Medicine refining process, and also regulate the Pill Fire's temperature to ensure the Medicinal Pills were perfectly refined.

Does that mean if he were to place a continuously burning flame below void feather, with a temperature comparable to his Pill Fire, and throw in spirit nurturing pill Spirit Medicine, void feather could also help him refine a batch of spirit nurturing pills?

Nangong Yu thought this to himself, planning to definitely try it when he had time.

Immediately, he put away the Medicinal Pills in the jade plate, and also put away the jade plate itself.

He saw his mind stir slightly, and void feather automatically floated, cleared the Spirit Medicine residue inside the Medicine Cauldron, then shrunk to the size of his thumb and landed in his palm.

Nangong Yu held void feather in his hand and couldn't help but smile with delight, “Well done, go back to my Dantian for now!”

As his voice fell, void feather also transformed into a stream of light and vanished into his Dantian.

“void feather has a spirit!”

Nangong Yu sighed, then waved his hand to dispose of the Spirit Medicine residue on the ground, not even letting go of the medicinal fragrance in the air.

He checked again, making sure nothing was left behind, before pulling two quilts over and lying down.

Immediately, he asked Ying Mei and learned that his mother was still undergoing a Breakthrough, so he didn't pay it any more mind.

He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep, but a wisp of his consciousness arrived in the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

He looked at the rejuvenation pills and spirit nurturing pills on the white jade shelves and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

“These two types of Medicinal Pills are useless to me now. Even if I sold them outside, they wouldn't fetch much. It's better to just sell them to the Time-Space Merchant Guild; it's much less hassle.”

Nangong Yu murmured, then sat in his chair and beckoned. All the rejuvenation pills and spirit nurturing pills flew off the white jade shelves and landed on the round table.

Soon, a number appeared on the round table:

394

Seeing this, Nangong Yu didn't hesitate and directly chose to sell them.

When he exchanged Spirit Medicine, along with two Pill Formulas, he used 110 points, but now he had gained 394 points, a net profit of 284 points, which was a huge gain.

There was nothing to hesitate about!

After selling the two types of Medicinal Pills, Nangong Yu looked up at the white jade shelves, only to see four grotto-heaven pills placed there solitarily.

Seeing this, Nangong Yu couldn't help but shake his head slightly, “grotto-heaven pills are still quite useful to me now. Rather than exchanging them for a high number of points, it's better to exchange for Spirit Medicine and a Pill Formula, and find time to refine them myself!”

As soon as he thought of it, Nangong Yu's figure instantly disappeared and reappeared in front of a glazed shelf, his gaze quickly locking onto the Pill Formula for the grotto-heaven pill!

“Exchange price 1000 points?”

“In this Time-Space Merchant Guild, is the exchange price of a Pill Formula indeed the price of a bottle of special-grade Medicinal Pills?”

Nangong Yu mumbled, but didn't hesitate, immediately exchanging for it.

Immediately after, his figure flickered again, and he exchanged for fifteen sets of Spirit Medicine for refining grotto-heaven pills.

Fifteen sets of Spirit Medicine only cost 300 points. If all went well, he wouldn't need to exchange for the grotto-heaven pills needed for his remaining seventy-two unopened grotto-heavens in the Time-Space Merchant Guild.

Nangong Yu's figure flickered again, exchanging for a Rank 4 Golden Core Condensing Pill Formula, and ten sets of Spirit Medicine for refining Golden Core Condensing Pills, totaling 7200 points.

Among these, the Golden Core Condensing Pill Formula alone cost 6000 points, meaning a bottle of special-grade Golden Core Condensing Pills in the Time-Space Merchant Guild would require 6000 points.

However, these are the Medicinal Pills he will need later for condensing his Golden Core and achieving a Breakthrough to the Core Formation Realm, so it's good to prepare early!

These few points, he didn't feel bad spending them!

Nangong Yu didn't hesitate and acted again, finding the Rank 4 rejuvenation pill Formula and exchanging for it with 5000 points.

Rank 4 rejuvenation pill is a healing Medicinal Pill, possessing extremely strong restorative effects for Cultivators in the Core Formation Realm and below.

While it can't regenerate severed limbs, it can certainly heal large cuts, broken bones, or internal bleeding, among other injuries.

Moreover, even for Nascent Soul Transformation Realm and even Deity Transformation Realm Cultivators, it has good restorative effects, so it's best to prepare some if possible!

After exchanging for the rejuvenation pill Formula, he naturally also exchanged for ten sets of Spirit Medicine for refining rejuvenation pills, which cost another 1000 points!

Nangong Yu exchanged for all the items he needed and then returned to sit in the chair.

Immediately, he reached out and summoned the grotto-heaven pill Pill Formula, beginning to comprehend and study it... Time flew by like a white steed, vanishing in an instant.

Outside the cultivation room, Shangguan Yuexi's Aura grew more vigorous, and a special wind swirled around her.

The wind was sometimes gentle, like a spring breeze caressing her face, like a mother's hand; at other times, it was violent, creating bursts of tearing sounds wherever it passed, shattering all surrounding objects into countless fragments.

At this moment, the entire residence was a mess, only Shangguan Yuexi floated in mid-air, completely unharmed, her Aura growing ever stronger.

Finally, at a certain moment, Shangguan Yuexi's Aura suddenly erupted, and her surrounding Qi also rose to a higher level.

Afterward, she slowly landed, exhaling a deep breath of turbid Qi, before slowly opening her eyes.

But what met her eyes made her heart tremble repeatedly, her gaze filled with lingering fear.

“Fortunately, fortunately, I placed Yuer in the cultivation room, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable!”

Her heart was filled with lingering fear, her pretty face slightly pale, as she couldn't help but murmur in a low voice.

Shangguan Yuexi's previous Breakthroughs had always been in the cultivation room. The stone materials used to build the cultivation room were thick and tough; even a Calamity Destruction Realm Cultivator, without using their full strength, couldn't break the cultivation room, so she didn't know the destructive power of a Breakthrough.

And she had never heard of or seen others' Breakthrough scenes, so she naturally didn't know these things.

It was only because she had been careful last night; otherwise, the consequences would definitely have been a pain she couldn't bear!

Shangguan Yuexi thought of something and couldn't help but quickly wave her hand to retrieve the two Formation Plates, then walked towards the cultivation room.
