The Journey of Overthrowing the Celestial Emperor
Ch. 144 ~ Distilling Pills
Whush!
"Sir Ziyi, what happened?"
Zhang Meng came and landed right beside Zhang Ziyi. Not only him, but Zhang Yin, Zhang Bie, Zhang Lan, Zhang Zhili, Shui Bing and Shui Shan also landed beside Zhang Ziyi.
"There's nothing. There's just a little trouble with Laohu!" zhang Ziyi.
All of the gazes led to a thick fog that had mixed with an orange aura. The shadow of a savage beast was visible within it. But the size is too big for the size of the Laohu, itself.
"Rawwr!!"
That roaring auman. Simultaneously, a thick fog began to be swept away by the orange-colored energy waves.
That's when it was seen by them. The big tiger. Tails that lunge like a fiery snake. Some parts of his body were covered by golden armour, with a crown attached to his head. There was a fire star symbol on the crown of the tiger's forehead.
Whush!!!
Suddenly the wide wings of the fire were flapped. Creating a hot wind that blows hard.
"Di–dia, have transformed?" Zhang Meng asked with gago. Seems unconfident. The body shape of Laohu is twice that of before. But sure and believe, his body could be even bigger than this.
"As you can see. Laohu had managed to raise his stealth level. And now he has become a Demon God!" Zhang Ziyi explained.
He walked over to Laohu. The tiger's face looked resolute and fierce.
"Stop acting like you're meeting an enemy, Laohu!" zhang Ziyi said as she stroked Laohu's forehead.
The fire tiger looked at Zhang Ziyi for a moment. After that he nodded his head.
"Byler!"
His body suddenly shrank, about the size of a normal tiger in general.
"Well, like this is more convenient."
"Auumm!"
The thick aroma of the herbal plant, re-smelled after previously blocked by the aura emitted by Laohu.
Kontan, it instantly made Zhang Yin and the other six close their eyes and choose to inhale the scent. Enjoying the scent that went into his lungs.
"The aroma is so comfortable! I'm sure, the herbs won't be far away from him, Ini—" Zhang Zhili who previously intended to guess the origin while trying to savor the scent, said, suddenly widened his eyes when he saw the expanse of herbal plants with such a dense aura.
"I–ini, Herbal plants are over hundreds of thousands of years old!" Zhang Zhili said enthusiastically. The view cannot be separated from the plants that are surrounded by light dust with various colors.
"You're right, teacher. I made them transform for millions of years. I intend to make a pill with it." Zhang Ziyi directly said his goal, without any intention of covering up.
"Make pills?" asked Zhang Zhili.
Zhang Ziyi walked over and approached one of the herbs. "Yes, teacher. These pills that I will later use to increase my subordinate's cultivation." Zhang Ziyi stopped his words for a moment. "However, to make it, I will probably need a lot of time. That's why I need to reuse my space and time elements, for that!"
"But, Ziyi'er. Using the time element excessively, it is not good. It can affect your mental–!"
"I know that. But the teacher is calm. I have a trick for this." Zhang Ziyi put up a thin ridge.
Although somewhat doubtful, yet Zhang Zhili could not do much. Zhang Ziyi's decision was already unanimous. This is one of Zhang Ziyi's own personalities, which is to do whatever he thinks is right. Although very risky, but he still stick to the principle; how would it work if he has not tried it.
"I understand Master!"
Zhang Ziyi stepped forward for a few footsteps. Then he started using his mind to make a table. After which it took out the Furnace from the space ring.
Whush!
Dust was flying on the table when the furnace suddenly landed on the table.
"Let's work together to make so many pills!" whispered Zhang Ziyi, on the furnace.
Sighs for a moment, then starts the pill refining process.
But before that, he limited time to himself at a high speed. So that others would notice his extremely fast movements, but actually what Zhang Ziyi was feeling was normal.
Zhang Ziyi opened his eyes, having previously closed his–. The pupils of the eyes turn blue. He would activate the Eagle Eye Skill as well as the Shadow Steps to increase his speed.
His subordinates might have reached hundreds of thousands of souls in number, so he should be able to complete thousands of these pills in no time. Not to mention, the arrival of the Ancestor Sect of the Seven Elements and the Fire God who would return to train his seven companions. He won't have time to make pills, because he has business with it.
The soul force spread. Zhang Ziyi lit a fire on the furnace. The materials he had prepared earlier began to put in the furnace. Some of them, Spirit crystals and herbs millions of years. He also used spirit crystals belonging to the Four-tailed fox demon, as well as spirit crystals that came from the Evil Octopus Monster, which he had once stolen.
Actually the spirit crystal belonging to the four-tailed Demon Fox was about to give to Shui Bing, remembering, he had never given the girl a spirit crystal. But for now, he would probably put aside regarding that spirit crystal. He'll give her another time.
-
The duarrr!!!
Explosions of golden light were seen on the furnace. Zhang Ziyi had gone through some time to do this refining.
He had made several thousand Heavenly level pills, and all of them formed a mound of hills. However that was not enough, he would continue refining.
Time after time is missed. Zhang Zhili, Zhang Bie, Zhang Meng, Zhang Yin, Zhang Lan, Shui Shan, Shui Bing and Laohu were still faithfully waiting for Zhang Ziyi.
Day and night change in the realm of the soul. I don't know how many days it's been and Zhang Ziyi hasn't finished the action yet.
Hill after hill of pills continued to be visible, while the herbs and spirit crystal mounds slowly began to diminish.
Zhang Ziyi was not willing to stop. He intended to make five pill hills. Her space ring turned out to have many spirit crystals available in it. It had already existed indeed before Zhang Ziyi had filled it. Probably about a billion demon spirit crystals with varying age levels.
Five days had passed in the soul realm. Zhang Ziyi began to feel the effects of using the time element for too long. His mentality is disturbed. But that didn't stop the action. He accelerated his movements.
The time element on Zhang Ziyi's body slowly began to malfunction again. Zhang Ziyi was getting tired. He used too much soul power for this.
Duarr!
The explosion for the umpteenth time happened on the furnace. The Heavenly level pill was visible. Zhang Ziyi took the pills and threw them at the fifth pill hill. Now there's one more ingredient left, before he finishes refining his–. His sight began to blur. He was exhausted after a week in the soul realm doing the same activity without resting. Moreover, the time on him he accelerated, so that if in the soul realm spending around a day, perhaps for Zhang Ziyi a day was equal to a week, or it could possibly be longer than that.
The shadowy step skill as well as the eagle eye also started to malfunction. Although his soul power was great, but if used continuously without stopping, it could also be drained and cause him mental fatigue.
"Alright ... one– distillery again–!" Zhang Ziyi said in a stammer.
The materials floated up and Zhang Ziyi directly aimed in the furnace. The fire on the furnace was not as big as before. However Zhang Ziyi was trying to keep control of the flame.
The explosion was heard for a while. Simultaneously, his consciousness also slowly began to thin. His gaze began to blur and darken completely.
