Chapter 20 Refining Pills
Just as they were about to leave, one of the men in white flew out.
He tossed a package to Ji Siyuan: "This contains the Soul-Ascending Pill that Le Xuan promised you, as well as the Xuan Shui Pill as compensation. You'd better forget about this."
After saying that, the person left.
Huo Yuhao: "Damn it! You hurt people so easily, and you think you can compensate them with something?"
Ji Siyuan: "Actually, we weren't injured. This is just hush money. They don't want us to talk about this."
It's quite strange that they gave them the Profound Water Pill this time. They weren't injured at all.
It seems that having connections makes things easier; Zhang Lexuan managed to get the pills with just a few words.
"Siyuan, what are the Soul Ascension Pill and the Mystic Water Pill for?"
"Want to know?"
"think."
"They are pills of the same quality, but their effects are different. The Soul Ascension Pill increases a person's soul power without any cost, by about 30 to 31 levels. Moreover, it is rumored that if a soul master only takes it once in their lifetime, there will be no side effects."
The effects of the Mysterious Water Pill are quite different; it cleanses the meridians, removes impurities, and enhances innate soul power. Both are very precious pills.
Huo Yuhao: "The academy paid a lot of hush money."
Ji Siyuan: "It's a pity I can't use any of it."
"Oh, why?"
"Well, I have a bet with someone that I can't use pills that enhance soul power. As for the Profound Water Pill, my body just absorbs impurities when it takes it."
To outsiders, Chun Chun just seems like he's talking big.
Huo Yuhao didn't believe it either.
"You can use it tonight. Now you should get ready for class."
"No, no, no, these two pills are all thanks to you, I don't want them." Ji Siyuan did all the talking and fighting, so Huo Yuhao didn't feel he was qualified to use the pills.
Ji Siyuan didn't refuse him: "Let's talk about it tonight, we'll be late for class now!"
The courses at the Foreign Languages Department were rather boring, so Ji Siyuan just gave up, while Huo Yuhao studied very diligently.
As night fell, they prepared to return to their dormitory to begin refining the elixirs.
A queue had already formed outside. Both of them were very skilled, and their beverage mixing techniques made many students wait for them at the right time.
"Holy crap, are they not going to cancel their trip?"
"They didn't come yesterday, and they still aren't coming today. I'm starving and ready to get some super big skewers."
"I want to eat grilled fish. I finally found a good one. I can tolerate it being a bit pricey, but what if they don't sell it to me?"
Ji Siyuan and Huo Yuhao couldn't hear their sorrow at all; they had already returned to their dormitory.
Ji Siyuan opened the package given to him by the academy; inside were two pills.
One is shaped like a green walnut; the other is shaped like a blue cherry, with water droplets on its surface.
Huo Yuhao: "Which one is the Soul Ascension Pill, and which one is the Profound Water Pill?"
Normally, it should be the one with water mist, but they are not sure.
Ji Siyuan took out the spatial soul tool that Yan Shaozhe had given him and retrieved the Xuan Shui Pill from it.
The pill is a deep blue cherry-shaped substance with white veins on its surface and a fine mist of water.
"Why do you still have one?"
Ji Siyuan: "It was given to me by Dean Yan. He saw that I had high talent and wanted to focus on cultivating me."
Huo Yuhao was incredibly envious. Having high talent meant you could do whatever you wanted. Even if you had no money, people would give you money; you even had a special identity.
If he's talented enough, that's fine.
Tianmeng comforted him in the Sea of Spirit, telling him that everything would be alright once he reached level 20.
Ji Siyuan rubbed his nose: "The Profound Water Pill is useless to me, and the Soul Ascension Pill doesn't work for me either. Normally, these would be given to you, but I reckon you wouldn't accept them. So, I'll try taking a Profound Water Pill myself. Anyway, the effects of these pills gradually diminish until they're completely ineffective."
Huo Yuhao quickly refused: "Siyuan, you should take that Soul Ascension Pill. I think it's best for you to use it; it will allow you to reach level 20 before the freshman assessment."
Huo Yuhao had heard about the three-month freshman assessment from Bei Bei and knew its importance.
"The Mysterious Water Pill doesn't come for free. I promised Dean Yan that I wouldn't use the Soul Ascension Pill if I reached level 20 within three months."
"Isn't that too harsh?"
Ji Siyuan replied without hesitation: "I have an ultimate martial soul. My level increase speed is relatively fast from level 10 to 30, and the speed only drops significantly after level 30. It's even more severe than that of ordinary martial souls."
Ji Siyuan was silent for a moment: "You don't think I gave it to you for nothing, do you? Let me tell you, you owe me a favor today, so remember to pay me back later."
With tears welling up in his eyes, Huo Yuhao said, "I will definitely find a way to repay this favor! Absolutely!"
"Then let's eat it. I'll try this cherry and see what it tastes like."
Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged and first used the Xuan Shui Pill.
Use the Soul-Boosting Pill after expanding the meridians.
Ji Siyuan simply forgot to tell him to get ready to change his clothes.
After all, Ji Siyuan ate it, so there was absolutely nothing wrong with him.
Ji Siyuan's body couldn't expel any impurities, but Huo Yuhao's effects were clearly visible.
Before long, a layer of black, viscous substance appeared on his body surface, emitting a foul odor.
Ji Siyuan: "Damn, I really overestimated myself."
He couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked out of the room, leaving Huo Yuhao alone in the dormitory.
He left a note reminding Huo Yuhao to open the windows for ventilation.
Tang San: "I thought you were going to stay in the dorm to see how the girl of destiny would hide her identity."
"Uncle, none of those Title Douluos could tell he was a woman. I now suspect that the million-year-old soul beast gave her a soul skill to conceal her identity! Like simulation. Although the book says it was acquired later, so many things have changed now, it's not impossible."
"Your thinking is correct, so you only came out because you couldn't see any beautiful girls, right?"
"How could that be? That smell is really awful."
Ji Siyuan went out for a walk and soon saw that their dormitory window was wide open. He guessed that the refining was complete and returned to the dormitory.
In a good mood, I opened the door.
"Huh? You, you, how did you get in here?" Huo Yuhao was wrapped in a bath towel, his cheeks flushed.
Ji Siyuan was a little embarrassed for a moment, as he knew that the person opposite him was a girl.
"Okay, you get dressed first, I'm going in to take a shower."
The two walked cautiously toward each other, bumping into each other as they passed.
Not only her face, but her neck was also a little red.
Fortunately, with the simulation, Huo Yuhao was able to conceal his identity.
When Ji Siyuan came out, her hair was still wet with water droplets.
He looked up at Huo Yuhao on the bed, who was staring at him intently without even blinking.
Noticing that Ji Siyuan was looking at her, she immediately lowered her head and gently bit her lip.
Ji Siyuan: "Did you take the Soul Ascension Pill?"
"No, I'm waiting for you to protect me!"
"it is good."
Huo Yuhao held the pill in his hand, thinking to himself: This is from him. The Xuan Shui Pill that allowed me to level up to level 12 was also from him. I can't let him down. I must become level 15! I absolutely cannot let him down.
Even though Ji Siyuan didn't make any demands on him, he still made demands on himself.
As the green walnut entered his body, its medicinal properties circulated through his meridians. Huo Yuhao began to circulate his soul power to absorb the medicinal properties and transform them into soul power.
Ji Siyuan watched him rise step by step, from the peak of level 12 to level 13, level 14, and then back to the peak of level 14.
Huo Yuhao's expression turned serious, and he bit his lip hard, forcing himself to speak.
Level 15!
Huo Yuhao opened his eyes, forcibly suppressing the urge to hug Ji Siyuan: "Siyuan, I'm level 15 now."
