Pill

After escorting Lu Yuan to the King of Hell’s residence, Meng Ruyan and Zhuang Yangbing went their separate ways.
In fact, when the three of them were together, they were a little afraid during battle because of their mutual suspicion towards each other.
Meng Ruyan did not dare to reveal too many non-Qingyun Sect cultivation techniques due to her identity.
She knew that Lu Yuan most likely already knew that she was not a Qingyun Sect disciple.
This could be seen from Lu Yuan’s lack of reaction when he heard the Paper Servant address her as Lady Meng.
Meng Ruyan also sensed that Lu Yuan was keeping many secrets.
However, both of them were smart people and did not prod at each other’s facade.
Therefore, both sides maintained a tacit understanding and pretended not to know anything.
However, having a tacit understanding with each other was one thing. It was another thing to need to lay everything out on the table.
If it was just her and Lu Yuan, Meng Ruyan would not have to worry so much. However, with Zhuang Yangbing around, she did not dare to reveal too much. After all, once the news of her displaying too many non-Qingyun Sect cultivation techniques and divine abilities spread, she would very likely attract the attention of the Qingyun Sect’s higher-ups.
Although the Taohua Sect was a neutral sect and Meng Ruyan wasn’t worried that she would be in danger if she was discovered, exposing her identity was always a troublesome matter for her.
Meng Ruyan didn’t want to leave the Qingyun Sect yet. After all, she hadn’t completed her mission.
Lu Yuan’s current situation was similar to Meng Ruyan’s.
Although his strength had improved by leaps and bounds, he still felt that he was still lacking in many aspects.
Originally, Lu Yuan felt that once he achieved Core Formation through the way of the heavens, he should be able to survive in this novice village.
However, as his understanding of this world deepened, he realized that things were not as simple as he had imagined.
In the Full Moon Demonic Kingdom, the strongest cultivators were at the Nascent Soul Stage.
However, after leaving this place, merely possessing the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator was definitely insufficient.
Right now, here in the Full Moon Mountain Range, the only way to leave the Full Moon Demonic Kingdom was by the Celestial Ascension Staircase located in the depths of the mountain range.
It was rumored that as long as one could cross this Celestial Ascension Staircase, they could cross over to the world where the celestials lived.
There were also people who claimed that once they managed to ascend the Celestial Ascension Staircase, celestials would come to welcome them.
Lu Yuan felt that this rumor was not baseless.
After all, the righteous way and the devilish way seemed to attach great importance to the Full Moon Mountain Range.
It was unknown whether they were interested in the Celestial Ascension Staircase or the treasures in the mountain range.
However, this was still far from being a concern for Lu Yuan.
It was because he had not even passed the first trial of the Full Moon Mountain Range, the Gates of Hell.
If he couldn’t leave this place alive, then everything after was irrelevant.
Once they entered the Full Moon Mountain Range during the Tidal Moon, they could only leave after the entire Tidal Moon ended.
The entire Tidal Moon would last for a total of 25 years.
The half-month period was twenty years, and the full-month period was five years.
Lu Yuan was prepared to use these 20 years to complete his Core Formation through the way of the heavens.
This was because there were many natural treasures in the Full Moon Demonic Kingdom that were not available in the outside world.
The others could only stare helplessly at these treasures, but Lu Yuan was different.
As a pharmacist, he could make use of these natural treasures to refine many pills that could not be refined in the outside world.
For example, Lu Yuan currently had two pills that he was keen on refining.
One was a pill used to assist in the cultivation of the heavenly flame divine ability, the flame merging pill.
[Flame Merging Pill]
[Effect: This pill can assist cultivators in absorbing the heavenly flames of heaven and earth. Talented individuals can fuse multiple types of heavenly flames.]
Lu Yuan wanted to improve his Green Flame Technique by fusing many types of heavenly flames.
As a Foundation Establishment Stage heavenly flame divine ability, the effect of the Green Flame Technique was not bad. However, its effectiveness would undoubtedly be greatly reduced after Lu Yuan reached the Core Formation Stage.
If he could use the Green Flame Technique as a foundation and fuse it with many types of heavenly flames, the upper limit of the Green Flame Technique could be greatly increased.
Lu Yuan even thought that once he fused many kinds of heavenly flames, the upgraded Green Flame Technique might serve as a low-level version of the True Samadhi Fire.
The True Samadhi Fire was a divine ability that could even pose a threat to celestials.
To refine the flame merging pill, other than finding a heavenly flame to serve as the main ingredient, Lu Yuan also needed to find a special celestial herb called the Origin Fire Orchid.
It was a type of celestial herb that only grew in areas with extreme heat and Yang energy. It was extremely rare.
No such area existed outside the Full Moon Mountain Range.
However, in the Full Moon Mountain Range, there happened to be a place where the Origin Fire Orchid grew.
Lu Yuan was prepared to head to this area as soon as he entered the Full Moon Mountain Range.
Apart from the flame merging pill, Lu Yuan was preparing to refine another pill, the golden core creation pill.
[Golden Core Creation Pill]
[Effect: This pill can increase the success rate of a cultivator’s core formation.] Compared to the flame merging pill, Lu Yuan was actually more interested in the golden core creation pill.
This was because it was tied to his success rate of him forming his core.
The pills refined by Lu Yuan were divided into ordinary pills and perfect pills.
If he had enough perfect-grade golden core creation pills, Lu Yuan felt that his chances of achieving Core Formation through the way of the heavens were at least 80% to 90%.
Combined with his luck talent, Destined Lucky Star, it would not be so difficult for him to achieve Core Formation through the way of the heavens.
However, the celestial herbs needed to refine the golden core creation pill were even harder to obtain.
All the herbs he required could only be found once in 100 years.
Even Lu Yuan was not confident that he could find all of them.
He could only depend on his luck.
However, Lu Yuan felt that if it was a competition of luck, this happened to be to his advantage.
As heaven’s most beloved child, he felt that as long as the time was right, these celestial herbs would find their way to him even if he did not deliberately look for them.
After determining what he wanted to do in the future, Lu Yuan focused his attention on the Gates of Hell.
He already had some clues on how to leave here.
When he handed the Ghost Pearl to the Paper Man butler, he was arranged to stay in a guest room.
According to the butler, the wedding ceremony of the King of Hell would be held seven days later.
After the wedding ceremony was over, the city gates would be opened and everyone could return to where they came from.
Without a doubt, this was clearly telling Lu Yuan and the others that on the seventh day, they could leave the Gates of Hell.
If he missed this window, he would most likely have to wait here until the next Tidal Moon began.
That would be 300 years later..
