48: Chapter 48 Elixirs
Chen Yang did not pay any attention to the spectators below; he had to devote his entire heart and soul to refining the Eighth Grade Pill in his hand, the "Spirit Healing Saint Soul Pill." Although it was a low-tier Eighth Grade Pill, it was still somewhat difficult for Chen Yang to refine at the moment.
However, possessing the pill refining knowledge of a Dou Di, it was not that daunting. As long as he followed the steps, this pill would surely be refined successfully.
As the medicinal herbs were continuously added, the cauldron formed by the Green Lotus Core Flame before his eyes burned fiercely, constantly refining the herbs into medicinal liquid.
"Whew..."
"All the medicinal herbs have finally been refined. Now, I only need to fuse these medicinal liquids together, and the pill will be formed."
Chen Yang thought to himself, but his movements did not stop.
The cyan flames engulfed the medicinal liquid, and as time passed, the entire Shrek Academy was permeated with a strange, fragrant pill aroma.
"What is this fragrance? Why do I feel the soul power within my body increasing?"
"Pfft..."
"I've broken through!"
"I've broken through too!"
Even Zhang Lexuan felt her bottleneck begin to loosen upon smelling it.
"It smells so good."
Meng Hongchen kept twitching her petite nose, sniffing the fragrance and feeling as though her entire being had been sublimated.
Everyone in Shrek Academy, particularly the low-rank Soul Masters, had basically broken through by one or two levels.
"Pill formed!"
Chen Yang let out a loud shout, and a blue beam of light shot into the sky; the entire Shrek Academy city witnessed this incredibly shocking scene.
"Boom... Boom..."
Thunderclouds began to gather, and lightning flashed continuously within the clouds, as if they wanted to shatter this pill directly.
Originally, there shouldn't be any Pill Lightning in the Douluo Continent, but such a pill was simply too monstrous; the entire universe would not allow such a pill to exist.
"Boom!"
A bolt of heavenly lightning struck directly toward the pill, as if it wanted to completely destroy this pill that shouldn't exist.
"Hmph, mere Pill Lightning!"
Chen Yang waved his hand and immediately cast the Holy Light Technique. A golden light shield directly enveloped Chen Yang and the pill. The lightning struck the light shield, causing ripples, but it did not cause the slightest bit of damage to the protective barrier.
Seeing Chen Yang hiding inside the protective barrier, the Pill Lightning seemed to be enraged; it stopped striking sporadically and instead began to gather all its power to strike down all at once.
"Boom!"
A massive thunderclap resonated across the heavens and earth, and the entire world seemed to be illuminated by this flash of lightning.
Meng Hongchen was startled upon seeing such a massive bolt of lightning and hurriedly said to Ju Zi, "Sister Ju Zi, can that protective barrier block it?"
Ju Zi frowned and shook her head. She didn't know if it could block it, but she certainly couldn't.
The entire protective barrier was bathed in lightning, and Chen Yang's figure could not be seen. As the lightning lost its momentum, it began to slowly fade away.
The flawless protective barrier appeared before everyone's eyes.
Ma Xiaotao's eyes dimmed. She had thought that such lightning could strike him to death, and that way, she could be considered to have avenged Shrek Academy.
But she hadn't expected that such powerful lightning would leave him completely unscathed, and it hadn't even broken the protective barrier.
Chen Yang directly grabbed the pill and placed it into a jade bottle.
"Finally succeeded."
Chen Yang looked at the jade bottle in his hand, let out a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face. He descended from the sky to Zhang Lexuan's side and said, "Lexuan, what do you think of my pill refining technique?"
"Brother Yang, I have never seen such a pill before. It feels like just smelling it makes one want to ascend on the spot."
Zhang Lexuan said, looking at Chen Yang with eyes filled with joy.
"Of course, this is an Eighth Grade Pill. In your world, it is no different from a divine pill. Not to mention ascending on the spot, I even have ways to make one directly achieve the level of a God King."
Chen Yang laughed, placed the jade bottle into his storage ring, and put his arm around Zhang Lexuan's waist.
Zhang Lexuan was his favorite woman in Shrek Academy. Not only was her figure perfect, but her temperament was also superb. This gentle, water-like feeling made Chen Yang unable to resist wanting to tease her.
"Brother Yang, thank you for helping me eliminate Duke White Tiger."
Ju Zi pulled Meng Hongchen over and said with a grateful expression.
"Haha, it's nothing, Ju Zi. If you are truly grateful, then serve me well tonight."
Chen Yang raised his hand, patted Ju Zi's head, and said.
Suddenly, Chen Yang seemed to see something and said, "Ju Zi, who is this behind you?"
Ju Zi smiled slightly and said slowly, "Brother Yang, she is Meng Hongchen."
"Come, Meng, say hello to Brother Yang."
Meng Hongchen's face was flushed, and she said timidly, "Brother Yang, my name is Meng Hongchen. You can just call me Meng."
Chen Yang grabbed Meng Hongchen and pulled her into his arms. Smelling the faint fragrance coming from Meng Hongchen's body, Chen Yang immediately felt a surge of heat.
However, before doing anything else, he needed to feed this pill to Wang Donger so that she could wake up.
"Ju Zi, you and Meng come to my room tonight. I will properly teach you both how to cultivate, hahaha."
Chen Yang said to Ju Zi and Meng Hongchen, and after finishing, he laughed and transformed into a streak of golden light, leaving the scene.
Arriving at the room where Wang Donger was sleeping, looking at that pink-blue hair, Chen Yang slowly walked forward. He used his hand to pinch Wang Donger's chin, forcing her to open her mouth, and then placed the pill he had just refined into her mouth. The pill dissolved upon entry, turning into a stream of pure energy that began to nourish her body.
However, that was still not enough. Someone had to actively guide this power into Wang Donger's sea of consciousness to completely repair her shattered soul.
Chen Yang placed his hand on top of Wang Donger's head. As his soul power intervened, the energy within Wang Donger's body began to converge toward her sea of consciousness, starting to repair Wang Donger's broken soul.
White specks of light gathered on Wang Donger's soul, and her pained expression gradually relaxed, looking serene and sweet.
Chen Yang smiled slightly and withdrew his soul power. Watching the energy continuously pouring into her sea of consciousness, Chen Yang let out a sigh of relief. He figured it wouldn't be long before Wang Donger woke up, at which point he would refine a second pill for her.
After taking the Soul-Replenishing Pill, Wang Donger would be able to fully recover and become a real, genuine person—a person independent of Tang Wutong. She would no longer be Tang Wutong; she would only be Wang Donger.
Looking at Wang Donger's sleeping face, Chen Yang decided not to disturb her and let her recover in peace, so he closed the door and walked out.
Chen Yang looked out the window and saw Ju Zi and Meng Hongchen coming together hand in hand. Chen Yang sat on the sofa and began to make tea.
Outside.
"Sister Ju Zi, I'm so nervous. I have never done such a thing before."
Meng Hongchen lowered her little head and said slowly. If one were to look closely at her face, one would find that her entire face was flushed red, looking quite beautiful.
Ju Zi was also full of shyness; she had never done it either. Xu Tianran was a disabled person incapable of sexual intercourse, and she had only seen it in storybooks, knowing only a tiny bit about how to actually do it.
To Meng Hongchen's words, Ju Zi didn't know how to answer either, so she could only say slowly, "It's okay, Meng. Every girl has this day; it's just a matter of whether this day comes early or late."
