Chapter 769 Double Happiness
Two months later, after successfully refining dozens of seventh-grade pills, Zhao Mu finally decided to start refining the Nine-Life Immortal Lotus Pill.
Ji Xinyi stood guard from the side.
Because the Nine-Life Immortal Vine Pill is made primarily of ninth-grade immortal vines, it is much more difficult to refine than ordinary seventh-grade pills. Although Flying Immortal Island is not dangerous, it is still inhabited by birds and beasts, and she must eliminate any possibility that might disturb Zhao Mu.
Boom boom boom~
The Yuanling Furnace blazed with a roaring fire, and Zhao Mu observed its condition with complete concentration.
Once the furnace reached the right temperature, he immediately began adding the prepared medicinal herbs one by one. The first one was naturally the ninth-grade immortal vine, which was the biggest challenge in refining the Nine-Life Immortal Vine Pill.
Huhu~
"Refine it for me!"
Even though he was very confident, Zhao Mu's heart was still clenched with tension when he actually started refining it. This was for his and Ji Xinyi's child, and there was only one and only one ninth-grade immortal vine, so there was no room for any mistakes.
Huhu~
The elixir fire enveloped the Nine-Life Immortal Vine, burning steadily and effectively, but at an extremely slow pace.
"As expected of a ninth-grade spiritual plant, it is indeed difficult to refine."
Looking at the ninth-grade immortal maiden that he had spent so much effort refining but had only managed to refine less than 30%, Zhao Mu sighed deeply.
However, we must persevere no matter how difficult it is.
Huhu~
Continuing to steadily input the alchemical fire, time passed by minute by minute, day and night turned, and it took a full two days and one night to finally refine the ninth-grade immortal vine into medicinal liquid.
"It's now."
Zhao Mu dared not delay and immediately put in the remaining spiritual materials one by one.
Huhu~
Compared to the ninth-grade immortal lotus, the refining difficulty of these seventh-grade spiritual materials was much lower. It only took a few hours to refine them to the state that Zhao Mu wanted.
The next step is the most crucial one: condensing the solution into a pill.
hiss~
Call ~
Zhao Mu took several deep breaths to calm himself down before finally beginning to condense his core.
"Condense, concentrate, concentrate, concentrate for me."
"Almost there."
"Not even close."
"..."
"It's done."
Zhao Mu immediately activated the alchemical fire, enveloping the condensed pill in its entirety, and proceeded to the final step: pill formation.
"This is....."
Ji Xinyi, who was protecting Zhao Mu, noticed that dark clouds were suddenly gathering overhead. No, these were not ordinary dark clouds, but tribulation clouds. Her expression changed drastically, and she warned Zhao Mu, "Be careful, it's a pill tribulation!"
"Don't worry, I expected this!"
After replying, Zhao Mu slowly withdrew the pill fire.
hum~
Suddenly, the Yuanling Furnace emitted a golden-red light, which then shot into the sky.
Through the light, one can see a perfectly round pill, wrapped in gold and red, hidden within.
"The Nine-Life Immortal Lotus Pill has finally been refined. Next comes the tribulation lightning."
Facing the tribulation, Zhao Mu remained completely calm. For him, transcending the tribulation was like returning to his happy hometown. Moreover, according to the records in the handbook, once the Nine-Life Immortal Lotus Pill was completed, there would be no worries about transcending the tribulation.
Even without his interference, this Nine-Life Immortal Lotus Pill could easily survive the pill tribulation.
Rumble~
Almost in the blink of an eye, the newly gathered tribulation clouds condensed into a heavenly punishment that suddenly descended.
Zi La La ~
The lightning struck the pill squarely, but Zhao Mu observed it with his pupil technique and found it completely unharmed. Instead, faint lines appeared on the originally smooth pill.
Boom~
Another divine punishment descended, but nothing happened.
Immediately after the third one fell, the tribulation clouds dissipated, the radiance faded, and a golden-red pill with cloud-like patterns on its surface floated in mid-air.
"Haha, it's done!"
Without saying a word, Zhao Mu reached out and took the Nine Lives Immortal Lotus Pill into his palm. He immediately jumped to Ji Xinyi's side and handed the pill to her.
Ji Xinyi said nothing and immediately swallowed it.
The next instant, she sensed that the medicinal power did not spread to her limbs and bones, but instead all flowed into her lower abdomen. Clearly, all the medicinal power had fallen into the hands of the fetus in her womb.
"How does it feel?"
The notes only recorded the refining method, process, and effects of the elixir, but did not record the reactions after taking it.
"Um......"
After a moment's hesitation, Ji Xinyi reached out and stroked her lower abdomen, saying softly, "She seems very excited."
"It seems to be working."
Zhao Mu grinned, his tense mind immediately relaxing. He lay down straight in the sea of flowers. Ji Xinyi was already used to his behavior, so she sat down and put the man's head on her lap.
Smelling the familiar and alluring fragrance, Zhao Mu quickly fell into a deep sleep. It took him two days and two nights to finally wake up, which shows how much he had expended in refining the Nine Lives Immortal Lotus Pill.
"Now, it's my turn to help you."
"what?"
Zhao Mu looked completely bewildered. Before he could even ask a question, his mouth was covered, leaving him wide-eyed.
This seems to be the first time Ji Xinyi has taken the initiative.
Hehe ~
Cultivation knows no day or night, and the Dual Cultivation Secret Method of the Hehuan Sect once again brought great benefits to the two of them.
Of course, given the significant difference in their cultivation levels, Ji Xinyi's gains were far less than before, but Zhao Mu's were different.
After about three months, with Ji Xinyi's help, he finally succeeded in perfecting the Immortal Qi.
"The Qiyue Linglong Xun can actually be refined by two people together."
Ji Xinyi, who was leaning against Zhao Mu's chest, suddenly spoke, making him immediately understand what the latter meant.
"You had this plan from the beginning?"
"Do not."
Ji Xinyi shook her head and said, "At first, I wanted you to refine this July Exquisite Xun by yourself."
"Now..."
Zhao Mu looked at Ji Xinyi's eyes with great curiosity.
"I want to live well, for you, and for her."
Ji Xinyi gently stroked Zhao Mu's cheek with one hand, while placing the other hand on her lower abdomen.
She admitted that she had changed; besides seeking justice for her family, she also wanted to live for this man and the baby in her womb.
Zhao Mu is right. People can have hatred, but they cannot have only hatred.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. You take the lead!"
"it is good!"
Ji Xinyi smiled faintly, and with a flick of her wrist, the Qiyue Linglong Xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) floated in front of the two of them.
Before long, they began to work together to refine it.
Normally, refining an Emperor-level weapon would take at least several years, and most Dao artifacts simply cannot be refined by human intervention.
But the July Linglong Xun is different. Zhao Mu has a soul that is abnormally powerful, while Ji Xinyi possesses the Immortal Linglong.
With their combined efforts, they successfully refined the Dao artifact in less than a month.
"Keep this with you!"
Zhao Mu knew very well that Ji Xinyi would leave after giving birth and would never give up returning to the Ji family, because there was still an unfulfilled obsession there.
"Ah."
Ji Xinyi did not refuse and readily agreed.
After a moment of tenderness, the couple both turned their gaze to Ji Xinyi's lower abdomen.
If I remember correctly, this little guy has been in his mother's womb for more than two years. Is he trying to outlast Nezha?
