Reincarnation of the Hero
Ch.109 - Spirit Pills
Han Shizu was teary-eyed in Xiang Yang's embrace, it was because finally her desire to talk to others had materialized.
Although it was telepathic, yet his voice could be heard by others making Han Shizu so happy that she could not help but cry.
When he felt Xiang Yang return his embrace, Han Shizu could feel a warm feeling that was different from the warm feeling when his father or mother held him.
The warm feeling that Xiang Yang gave somehow made his heart flutter, he felt like he did not want to let go of his embrace from the young man.
Han Shizu did not know the foreign feelings she was in at the moment.
Xiang Yang himself was now feeling troubled, not because Han Shizu was hugging him but was feeling troubled because of his current thoughts. The two soft objects stuck to his chest made Xiang Yang's mind so unreasonable, that the young man was troubled by the thought.
After a few minutes passed, Xiang Yang no longer heard Han Shizu's irregular breathing sound, nor did the girl's embrace loosen.
Xiang Yang felt a little strange and let go of his embrace, seeing that Han Shizu was already asleep.
Xiang Yang smiled wryly but he cursed him. Han Shizu was still not fully recovered, she had only woken up after being severely injured and she was immediately charged with strong emotions, so it was only natural that the girl felt tired until she fell asleep as needed.
Xiang Yang carried Han Shizu to the cottage and placed her on the bed.
Xiang Yang sat beside Han Shizu, looking at the girl's face intently.
A moment later, Xiang Yang thought of one thing. He placed his hand on Han Shizu's stomach and drained his soul power, checking the condition of the girl's spiritual roots.
"He had the spiritual roots of wind and lightning, yet his spiritual roots were already severely damaged!" Xiang Yang stood up and picked up a book in the bookcase and read the book.
"Spiritual root can be healed in various ways and pills depending on the damage experienced and the level of cultivation, but the damage of Han Shizu's spiritual root was practically destroyed, it would be difficult to recover it!..
However that doesn't mean there's no way, with Han Shizu's current cultivation, I at least need a Gold Core level 5 Spirit Crystal should be enough!..
But with my current strength, it would be very difficult to obtain a stage 5 Gold Core level Spirit Crystal, moreover I need 2 that are wind and lightning types!..
"But..." Xiang Yang was silent for a moment then took out a jade slip that emitted a flash of lightning.
"It should be that the lightning element Spirit Crystal could be replaced with the Lightning Soul, but do I really have to use this Lightning Soul?" Xiang Yang was a bit hesitant since the Lightning Soul was extremely precious, also if he gave Han Shizu that lightning soul then the other 4 Lightning Soul shards should be owned by Han Shizu.
After quite a while of thought, Xiang Yang finally decided to make that Lightning Soul a substitute for the lightning element Spirit Crystal.
Xiang Yang thought that if Han Shizu matched that Lightning Soul then that girl could become extremely strong later on. That way Xiang Yang could get help from Han Shizu.
"But this Lightning Soul is soul-shaped, how do I make it into a pill?" this was the problem that Xiang Yang had to face right now.
But a moment later, Xiang Yang recalled one thing.
"Right as well, I can use the Soul Seal Technique, that way I can insert this Lightning Soul into the pill!" Xiang Yang smiled widely because he had just gotten a good idea "If it works then I will hunt down the Spirit Beast and take his soul to put in the pill!..
Heheh, that pill that has a soul inside, doesn't that sound incredible?" thinking about that made Xiang Yang so excited.
Xiang Yang had previously studied this Soul Seal Technique while still in the small dimension, precisely while in the Imperial Capital of Han.
Xiang Yang admitted that the Soul Seal Technique was very difficult to master, he currently only mastered the basics. Xiang Yang had also never practiced this technique until he still did not know the exact difficulty in using it.
"Then, I'll go out to look for the Spirit Beast to start the experiment!" Xiang Yang came out of the small dimension, he appeared inside the cave where he found the Soul Grass earlier.
After a dozen minutes, Xiang Yang found a Spirit Beast that was only at the True Fondation level.
Xiang Yang could easily cripple the Spirit Beast, he did not kill it.
"Blessed because you will be the first Spirit Beast I will take his soul!" Xiang Yang did a hand seal, then pointed his hand forward.
Instantly the chains of light came out and entered the Spirit Beast's body.
Those chains of light also pulled out the Spirit Beast's soul.
After a few seconds, the Spirit Beast's soul head started to come out.
Xiang Yang started to sweat "It's really hard, although my soul power is stronger, it should also be that Spirit Beast soul power is weaker than cultivators of the same level, too, but it's still very difficult!"
The main factor of Xiang Yang difficulty was that his unaccustomed self had also not mastered this Soul Seal Technique, so even removing a True Fondation-level Spirit Beast soul had already made him sweat.
Even so, after the extra effort, Xiang Yang was finally able to draw out the Spirit Beast's soul.
"Haha! I succeeded!" Xiang Yang stared excitedly at the Spirit Beast soul in the grasp of his right hand.
Xiang Yang decided to enter the small dimension, he was about to start an experiment.
Now Xiang Yang was sitting outside the hut with a pill furnace in front of him. He did not refine the pills inside the hut because he did not want to disturb Han Shizu's rest.
"I'll start from making a tier 2 pill!" Xiang Yang lit the furnace and put the herbal ingredients into the furnace.
Xiang Yang only took less than 1 minute to fuse and remove all the impurities in the ingredients in the furnace, and now only solidified, but Xiang Yang did not directly condense it.
Xiang Yang still did not know how to fit a soul into a pill.
Xiang Yang put the Spirit Beast's soul into the furnace, then began to condense the ingredients together with the Spirit Beast's soul.
A few moments passed...
*boom!
All the materials inside the furnace exploded, emitting black smoke.
"Damn it, I failed! The Spirit Beast's soul was instantly burnt while in the process of compaction to the point of making the pill explode, it seems like I can't do this way, maybe I should condense the pill first before inserting its soul!" Xiang Yang muttered then came out of the small dimension, returning to look for the Spirit Beast.
After obtaining a True Fondation-level Spirit Beast soul, Xiang Yang returned to conducting experiments.
Xiang Yang carried out the process of making pills. In less than a minute, the tier 2 pill was completed in the compaction process, then Xiang Yang inserted the Spirit Beast soul into the furnace.
Xiang Yang was very focused, he did not want to fail again this time.
Half a minute later, the fire inside the furnace went out. Xiang Yang opened the furnace, he could see a pill that emitted a different aura.
Xiang Yang took the pill and jumped up in excitement because he succeeded.
"Haha...! I succeeded! A low quality level 2 pill, but its effectiveness is better than most high quality level 2 pills, this pill can already be matched with a tier 3 pill!" Xiang Yang was really happy "Alright, I will call this new type of pill by the name of 'Spirit Pill'!".
