Chapter 4561: Taking a bath with the star Ink milk

What made Lin Yi even more speechless was that this Spirit Bird was only in the late Foundation Stage after following Huang xiaotao for so many years in the North Island. From what Huang xiaotao said, this guy hadn’t leveled up for many years and didn’t show any signs of breaking through at all. Now that it came to the South Island, the base camp of the spirit beasts, it didn’t seem to be concentrating on cultivation, but it jumped five levels just by playing around. What kind of logic was this?
One could only say that a spirit beast’s leveling up was something that couldn’t be explained with a brain-there was no pattern to it at all. After all, he couldn’t just say that this was the spirit bird’s natural training method, could he? Lin Yi didn’t think that this guy had all five elements at the same time …
However, no matter how much the bird’s strength increased, it still couldn’t eat the ginseng raw as a late-stage golden core-not even a small piece. In fact, even a peak-stage golden core like Lin Yi didn’t dare to eat it raw. He’d be dying with a grievance if he couldn’t handle the ginseng’s effects and died.
The only way to take the nascent soul ginseng was to refine it into a golden pill. This way, not only could it better benefit its huge medicinal power, but it could also neutralize the medicinal properties, making it gentle and harmless. Not to mention, forming a nascent soul did not only require a heavenly treasure like the nascent ginseng, but also a variety of other spirit herbs.
Without further ado, Lin Yi started making the Golden pill. It was a level six pill, but Lin Yi was no stranger to this.
Back when he was on the middle Island, he had already refined it once for the Tian Xing sect. For this reason, he had often asked Cai Zhongyang and hou guanqi, the two alchemy experts, for advice. He could be considered to be very familiar with the process.
But even so, Lin Yi didn’t use the whole ginseng-he didn’t need it at all. In theory, a small piece of ginseng was enough to make a golden pill, and using the whole ginseng was a waste. Even if he’d been managing his herb storage, he couldn’t take out so many supplementary herbs all of a sudden.
Even though Lin Yi had successfully made it once before, it was still a tier six pill. Even the Shennong medicine cauldron had a chance of making a mistake. If something went wrong during the process, the whole baby ginseng would be gone. Lin Yi couldn’t afford to take that risk, and there was no need to.
He carefully cut two thin slices from the ginseng, and that was enough. If he couldn’t even make a golden pill from two slices, then it wouldn’t mean that his elixir making skills weren’t good enough-it’d just mean that his bad luck hadn’t passed! He didn’t even need to think about forming a nascent soul. It was better to wash up and go to sleep, so as not to waste such a heavenly treasure.
After preparing all the herbs, Lin Yi went into the Jade space to rest for a while. When everything was ready, he took out the Shennong medicine cauldron and started making the Golden elixir.
After inputting the recipe, the Shennong medicine cauldron would automatically start refining the elixir. In theory, as long as the Shennong medicine cauldron could take it, the chances of failure were much lower than other normal alchemists. The near-perfect success rate before was proof of that, and he had already succeeded before. Even so, Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
Of course, there was no point in him being nervous now. The only thing he could do was to control the supply of pure energy. Everything else could only be counted on the Shennong medicine cauldron that Han Jing Jing left him.
The whole process took a whole day and night. He didn’t know if it was because the cauldron couldn’t take the impact or because he put in two portions of herbs at once, but the cauldron buzzed and shook frequently. There were even a few times when it shook so violently that Lin Yi thought the cauldron was going to explode. After all, this didn’t happen before.
But he had no choice-he had to press on.
Fortunately, the Shennong medicine cauldron managed to hold on until the end. When the tablet rang with Han Jing Jing’s announcement, Lin Yi’s entire body was soaked in sweat. He’d been on tenterhooks for the whole day, and the pressure was even greater than when he faced the five elements killing intent. This wasn’t a job for humans.
Letting out a long breath, Lin Yi couldn’t wait to open Shennong’s medicine cauldron. The unique smell of the nascent ginseng entered his nose, but it was a bit more refreshing than the original smell. The freshly made golden pill was lying quietly in the medicine cauldron.
Seeing the Golden pill form in Shennong’s medicine cauldron, Lin Yi let out a breath of relief, but at the same time, his eyes twitched in surprise. To be more precise, he was surprised and happy,”Why are there three?”
The Golden core in front of him didn’t have the core Halo he’d imagined-it was only high quality, not top quality. However, the quantity gave Lin Yi a big surprise-it wasn’t two, but three!
He had only put in two pieces of nascent ginseng and only two sets of other supplementary spiritual herbs, but the result was that he had refined three golden dans. No wonder there were so many abnormalities in the process, and no wonder the quality could not reach the expected supreme quality. It was already a great luck to produce three golden dans at once. It would be unreasonable if they were all supreme quality.
No matter what, getting an extra golden core wasn’t a bad thing. Lin Yi’s bottom line was just one, and he was overjoyed to get three.
Lin Yi wasn’t sure if he could form a nascent soul with just one golden core, but he didn’t have to worry about that now.
After that, Lin Yi didn’t rush to start forming his nascent soul. Instead, he sat cross-legged in the underground space of the five poisons swamp, meditating. He did this for three days and three nights, making sure that his energy was at its peak. Only then did he slowly open his eyes.
After everything was ready, the first thing Lin Yi did wasn’t to consume the Golden core, but to dig a hole in the ground for a bath …
Of course, it wasn’t a normal bath-golden core cultivators could control every single pore on their body with ease, and they’d be fine even if they didn’t shower for a year or so. Lin Yi didn’t usually have the time to do something like this, but he had to do it today-he wasn’t using water, he was using Star Ink.
There were only a few people in this world who had the ability to obtain Star Ink milk, and even if they had the ability, they would at most have a small bottle. They had always treated it as a bejeweled nectar and saved as much as they could, not even willing to drink it. As for taking a bath with it, that was simply a fantasy, something that they didn’t even dare to think about. (To be continued.) ”
