Immortality Cultivation

Chapter 211: Unique Effects

Fang Hao watched the nine yin yang harmony pills, spinning and emitting a tempting Chaos luster, pop out of the Pill Furnace.

He felt as if his bones had been removed.

He collapsed onto the ground, limbs splayed, not wanting to move a finger.

He felt like a squeezed-dry, hollowed-out sack; every part of him, inside and out, did not feel like his own.

His head was heavy, as if filled with lead; his eyes dimmed, and his ears buzzed.

Only the rich, heavenly fragrance of the Medicinal Pill kept drilling into his nose, reminding him that... it seemed to have succeeded?

Damn it... finally... not all for nothing...

He grinned, but it pulled at the dried blood scabs on his face, making him gasp in pain.

Struggling, using his last bit of strength, he beckoned with his hand, using his Qi to carefully gather the nine precious Medicinal Pills and put them into the jade bottle Princess Mu Yijing had prepared.

The Medicinal Pills were warm as jade, yet carried a strange vitality, as if alive.

He took the jade bottle and looked at the stone platform.

Princess Mu Yijing was still sitting cross-legged, her face even paler than before, white as paper.

Her aura was so weak it was barely perceptible.

Her white dress was soaked through with cold sweat and the black blood that had spilled from her lips; she looked miserable.

However, the black Evil Qi clawing at her body seemed to have thinned out significantly since the source (most of the Evil Qi) had been refined into the Medicinal Pills, though it still stubbornly clung to her.

Your Highness... the Medicinal Pills... are done...

Fang Hao called out weakly, his voice as raspy as a broken bellows.

Princess Mu Yijing’s tightly closed eyelids trembled slightly and slowly opened.

Her gaze was still unfocused, filled with extreme exhaustion and pain, but upon seeing the jade bottle in Fang Hao’s hand and sensing the strange medicinal fragrance in the air, a flash of excitement and... hope, could not be suppressed in the depths of her eyes.

Give... to me...

She lifted her hand with difficulty, her voice as faint as a mosquito.

Fang Hao struggled to get up, his footsteps shaky, and stumbled to the side of the stone platform.

He poured five Medicinal Pills from the jade bottle into her outstretched palm.

After a thought, he poured one back, giving her only four and keeping five for himself.

He was not a Saint; he had risked his life to refine these, so he could not give them all to her.

He needed to keep some; these were clearly good items that might save his life later.

Princess Mu Yijing did not seem to care how many he took; all her attention was focused on the four warm Medicinal Pills in her palm.

She took a deep breath, used her remaining strength to pop one into her mouth, and swallowed it.

Then she immediately closed her eyes again, formed hand seals, and began to circulate her Cultivation Technique to refine the medicinal power.

Fang Hao could not worry about her anymore.

He sat on the ground by the stone platform, back against the cold stone, and hurriedly poured out one yin yang harmony pill.

Without even looking, he threw it into his mouth.

The Medicinal Pill melted upon contact, transforming into a warm, mellow, yet strangely vital current that rushed into his limbs and bones, heading straight for his Sea of Consciousness!

Hiss—!

Fang Hao could not help but moan in pleasure!

This feeling was damn good!

It was like soaking in a hot spring in the middle of winter; every pore on his body opened up!

The deep-seated cold, burning heat, and stinging pain he had felt before were rapidly melting away under the wash of this warm current, like snow under the sun!

His parched Meridians, like land after a long drought, greedily absorbed this incomparably pure medicinal power, which contained the power of Yin and Yang harmony!

His depleted Dantian also began to rotate slowly, regenerating weak Qi.

More importantly, his Sea of Consciousness, which had been on the verge of being torn apart by Evil Qi and pushed to its limit, began to repair and consolidate under the nourishment of this medicinal power, becoming even more solid and transparent than before!

An indescribable sense of tranquility and peace rose from the bottom of his heart, as if all his exhaustion, fear, and lingering anxiety had been smoothed away by this medicinal power.

Good stuff! Really good stuff!

Fang Hao was ecstatic.

He quickly focused his mind, fully circulating the Chaos Derivation Art to guide the medicinal power, repair his injuries, and restore his cultivation.

His injuries were mainly from the exhaustion of his Divine Soul and Qi, while the erosion of the Evil Qi had been largely neutralized by the Origin of Chaos and the power of the Medicinal Pill, making recovery relatively easy.

As for Princess Mu Yijing on the stone platform, the changes were even more astonishing!

The moment the yin yang harmony pill entered her body, an unnatural flush instantly appeared on her paper-white face, and her body trembled violently!

The remaining, sparse black Evil Qi on her body surface seemed to have received a huge stimulus, twisting and struggling crazily, wanting to make a final counterattack!

But the pure, harmonizing power within the Medicinal Pill—which fused the Yang power of the crimson phoenix feather, the Yin power of the snow soul lotus, the vitality of the Earth Core Flame Fire, and a trace of the Origin of Chaos Dao aura—had already dissolved within her.

This power did not clash head-on with the Evil Qi like her own Star Power had; instead, it was like the most ingenious water flow, infiltrating, wrapping, dividing, and harmonizing...

Within her, the Star Power (Yang) and the Dark Evil Qi (Yin), which had originally been clearly distinct and clashing fiercely, began to slowly rotate and merge in a mysterious way under the intervention of this new harmonizing power.

The Star Power no longer blindly expelled the Dark Evil Qi, and the Dark Evil Qi no longer crazily eroded the Star Power.

The two seemed to find a certain fulcrum of balance, and under the guidance of the harmonizing power, they gradually formed a small, black-and-white Taiji diagram phantom, slowly rotating in her Dantian and Purple Mansion!

Every time the Taiji diagram rotated, a trace of the pitch-black Evil Qi was refined and absorbed, transforming into pure, neutral Qi, nourishing her damaged Nascent Soul and Dao foundation!

Her own Star Power also became more condensed and pure in this Fusion!

The flush on her face gradually faded, and her aura stabilized at a speed visible to the naked eye, beginning to slowly recover!

Although still weak, that feeling of being on the brink of death, of potentially collapsing at any moment, had disappeared!

Her tightly locked brows slowly relaxed, and the pain on her face gradually faded, replaced by a sense of tranquility and... a joy like a new beginning.

Fang Hao, while refining the medicinal power, secretly observed with his Clear Spring Spirit Eyes, clicking his tongue in wonder.

The effect of this Medicinal Pill was simply too overbearing!

Looking at it, Princess Mu Yijing’s Dao foundation injury was truly saved!

Moreover, after this ordeal and the harmonization of the yin yang harmony pill, her cultivation might even turn a misfortune into a blessing and reach a higher level!

He withdrew his gaze and focused on recovering.

He had lost a lot this time, but he had also gained a lot!

He had nearly lost his life, but he had obtained five life-saving top-grade Spirit Pills.

More importantly, the Karma with this Grand Princess was finally settled, and he had made her owe him a huge favor!

This deal, although the process was dangerous, the result... seemed pretty good?

The two of them sat and leaned like this, each regulating their breath and recovering in the silent valley.

On the horizon, a fish-belly white gradually appeared.

A ray of golden morning light pierced the darkness, shining into Wangyue Valley, and also shining on these two people who had just struggled back from the edge of life and death.
