Chapter IV Quenching Spirit Powder

There were around 50 herbs on the table. Only a few of them were Tier 1 Spirit Grasses, and the rest of them were common looking herbs.

Spirit grasses were divided into nine ranks based on their age of growth and their medicinal effects.

One of the Tier 1 spiritual herbs had the lowest medicinal effect and the most quantity. Tier 1 spiritual herbs were usually used by Body Tempering realm martial artists.

One by one … the higher the level, the stronger the effects! At the same time, the higher the level of the herb, the rarer it was.

Looking at the medicinal plant on the table, Ling Tianyang thought for a while and then began to take action.

"Hu!"

As time passed, the herbs on the table were reduced one by one! After some time, Ling Tianyang let out a long breath and stopped what he was doing.

"So close. However, I was able to successfully refine it."

"Luckily this is not refining a pill, and does not require a furnace or flame. Otherwise, with my current cultivation level and not yet Inner Qi Stage, it would be impossible for me to refine it!"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Ling Tianyang looked at the two jade bottles on the table and let out a sigh of relief.

In his previous life, Ling Tianyang could refine a high level sixth-grade Spirit Pill, but the current situation was different from the past!

First of all, Ling Tianyang's current cultivation was only at the Ninth Layer of Body Tempering! His soul force did not even have Spirit Sea Stage, which was more than a thousand miles away from the peak of his previous life.

"With my current condition, it's quite difficult to successfully refine two kinds of poisons, 'Six Desire Broken Intestines' and 'Petrification Powder'."

"However, now that I have Six Desire Intestine and Stone Element Powder in my hands, I have a small method of self-defense in my Kaiyang City."

"Even if it's an expert at the peak of Condensing Genuineness Stage, I'm afraid that he'll only be able to swallow his hatred when he tries to cut off my intestines with Petrification Powder! "Heh heh …"

Ling Tianyang looked at the table with excitement. On the table were two small jade bottles of Six Desire Broken Intestines and Petrification Powder. He chuckled! However, when Ling Tianyang saw the remaining dozen or so medicinal plants on the table, his expression collapsed.

"Unfortunately, I only have one set of medicinal materials to refine the Quenching Spirit Powder. If this refining fails, then I'll have to wait at least two months before I can gather all the medicinal materials needed to refine the Quenching Spirit Powder."

"It's hard to live without gold coins. It seems that I have to think of a way to earn some gold coins!"

As a direct descendant of the Ling Family, the clan would actually provide a few dozen gold coins worth of cultivation resources to each disciple.

The medicinal ingredients that he exchanged for at the Spirit Medicine Pavilion area last time cost Ling Tianyang over a hundred gold coins. Not only did Ling Tianyang use up all of his cultivation resources this month, he even overused all of his cultivation resources next month.

What Ling Tianyang needed the most now was time. If he failed this time, the only herbs he had would be destroyed; however, Ling Tianyang did not have the ability to purchase them again for the time being, so he could only succeed and not fail this time!

He recalled the method to refine the Quenching Spirit Powder again and again until Ling Tianyang completely understood the method to refine the Quenching Spirit Powder. Only when he had a certain amount of confidence did he start to act.

Letting out a long breath, Ling Tianyang put away the Six Desire Broken Intestines and Petrifaction Powder on the table and got back to work.

The Quenching Spirit Powder was a relatively rare and special supporting medicine used by Body Tempering realm warriors.

The process of configuring the Quenching Spirit Powder was extremely complicated, but it didn't require a pill furnace or a fire seed. This was an ancient recipe passed down from the ancient era.

According to Ling Tianyang's conjecture, with Ling Tianyang's current Tempered Body 9th Layer cultivation, using Quenching Spirit Powder would probably mean that he would be able to directly advance to Tempered Body 10th Layer, mid to late stage.

Time passed minute by minute, when the remaining herbs on the table had completely disappeared along with Ling Tianyang's movements, another jade bottle filled with emerald green powder appeared on the table once again.

Ling Tianyang was sweating profusely, as if he was fished out of water! Ling Tianyang did not move an inch, his eyes were looking at the Quenching Spirit Powder that he had just finished refining.

"We've finally succeeded!" But why do I feel so tired? "

"Ouch!"

Looking at the Quenching Spirit Powder that was successfully refined, Ling Tianyang was overjoyed.

Immediately after, he felt a strong sense of tiredness. Ling Tianyang hurriedly put away the jade bottle that contained the Quenching Spirit Powder, then his vision darkened and he fainted.

Ling Tianyang's current cultivation was only at the Ninth Layer of Body Tempering. He could only be considered a slightly stronger martial artist than ordinary people.

When he had refined the Six Desire Short Intestine and Petrification Powder earlier, he had consumed a large amount of Ling Tianyang's mental and physical strength. After that, when he refined the Quenching Spirit Powder, he had even overdrafted himself!

After all, a martial artist's body wasn't made of iron. If their body continued to be in an overly exhausted state for a long period of time, then it would also be overworked.

….

The next day was sunny and clear.

The sunlight shone through the window into Ling Tianyang's room, making the entire room look red.

"Mm."

Ling Tianyang opened his eyes and got up from the bed after putting on his clothes. He stretched his arms towards the sky.

Creak!

The door was pushed open, and two maidservants walked in softly.

The two girls were a pair of twin sisters, sister Shi Xiaoya and sister Shi Xiaomei. The two girls were about the same age as Ling Tianyang.

Shi Xiaoya and Shi Xiaomei's parents had died early, and under the pressure of life, they were sold to distant relatives to become servants of their families.

Later on, when Ling Xuan saw that the two of them were about the same age as Ling Tianyang, he arranged for the two of them to take care of Ling Tianyang's daily life! Ling Tianyang had treated the two of them pretty well in the past, so the two girls had a good relationship with Ling Tianyang.

"Young master, yesterday we saw you faint on the ground as soon as we entered. You scared us to death. Are you alright now?"

Shi Xiaoya and Shi Xiaomei looked at Ling Tianyang with red eyes and said worriedly.

"Oh!" I'm fine, it was you guys who carried me to the bed, right? It's been hard on you all, thanks! "

Ling Tianyang knew that before he fainted, he must have fallen on the floor in the room, but now he woke up and laid on the bed.

It was likely that Shi Xiaoya and Shi Xiaomei had lifted him onto the bed after realizing he had fainted on the floor. Otherwise, who knew how long he would have been lying on the floor, so Ling Tianyang felt that it was necessary for him to thank the two of them.

"We are young master's maids. These are things that we should have done anyway. As long as young master is fine, everything will be fine." The two girls smiled.

Ling Tianyang said to the two girls as if he suddenly remembered something. He quickly reached into his pocket and took out a jade bottle filled with emerald green powder.

"Fortunately, the Quenching Spirit Powder is still here." Seeing that the jade bottle containing the Quenching Spirit Powder was still with him, Ling Tianyang could not help but heave a sigh of relief and muttered.

Shi Xiaoya and Shi Xiaomei, who were at the side, stared curiously at the jade bottle in Ling Tianyang's hand when they saw Ling Tianyang's strange expression.

"Young Master, what treasure is in this jade bottle?" "Since you're so nervous, let me take a look as well!" Shi Xiaomei asked curiously.

"About this, it's a good item anyways. I'll keep it a secret for now, but I'll tell you about it later." Ling Tianyang smiled.

Ordinary people would need at least a few years to cultivate from the first level of Body Tempering Stage to the peak of Body Tempering Stage.

However, when warriors use Quenching Spirit Powder s, they can greatly shorten the time involved, and will not cause unstable cultivation levels to occur.

According to the records of the Medicine God, some of the most talented people could directly advance from a normal person to the peak of the Body Refinement Realm in a few months, or even a very short amount of time.

It was common knowledge that the later a martial artist cultivated, the harder it was for their cultivation to break through.

On the road of martial arts, other than martial artists that had reached late stage, most people's golden age of cultivation was when they were young, so the earlier a martial artist's cultivation broke through, the higher their future achievements would be!

Although Quenching Spirit Powder could only be used on Body Tempering realm martial artists, martial artists could reach the peak of the Body Tempering stage in a very short period of time after using Quenching Spirit Powder. This would undoubtedly save martial artists a lot of time to cultivate, and it was not difficult to see through the heaven defying aspects of Quenching Spirit Powder.

A man's wealth was his own fault!

Before his cultivation level increased, Ling Tianyang temporarily didn't plan on letting others know about the Quenching Spirit Powder's secret.

Shi Xiaoya and Shi Xiaomei, who were by Ling Tianyang's side, had naturally learned some low-level techniques. The two girls' cultivation realms were the same as Ling Tianyang's, but their cultivations were relatively low, only around the 4th or 5th Body Tempering Layer.

As for the Quenching Spirit Powder, Ling Tianyang planned to let the two girls use it in the future.

After all, the two girls were completely loyal to him. Since the cultivation of the people around him had increased, there were many benefits.

"I need some warm water right now. Please prepare it for me!"

Looking at the Quenching Spirit Powder in the jade bottle, Ling Tianyang couldn't wait to try it out.

"Oh!" "Alright."

Not long after that, Ling Tianyang's room was filled with a huge wooden barrel full of warm water.

"Hm!" "Thank you. You guys stay outside now and remember not to let anyone come in to disturb me. Do you understand?"

"Alright."

After the two girls left, Ling Tianyang impatiently poured the Quenching Spirit Powder into the wooden bucket.

Once the Quenching Spirit Powder entered the water, the entire bucket of hot water turned into a green ink like liquid! Seeing that, Ling Tianyang could not wait any longer, took off his clothes, and sat cross-legged inside.

"Chi!" "Swish …"

Just as he entered the water, Ling Tianyang felt an intense pain all over his body.

Ling Tianyang clenched his teeth and gasped. The veins on his arm were bulging and sweat was pouring down like rain.

Quenching Spirit Powder s were a type of special spiritual medicine that could speed up the tempering of the human body without any side effects. The only downside of Quenching Spirit Powder s was that during the process of using them, a warrior's body would feel a great deal of pain.

The time it took for half an incense stick to burn slowly passed, and Ling Tianyang's body was soaked in the Quenching Spirit Powder and further refined.

"Peak of Tempered Body 9th Layer!"

Two hours later, a crisp sound suddenly came from Ling Tianyang's body. He immediately opened his eyes with a joyful expression.

Under the attacks of the Quenching Spirit Powder, Ling Tianyang's cultivation quickly reached the peak of Tempered Body 9th Layer. Lowering his head to look at the Quenching Spirit Powder in the barrel, he discovered that it had only consumed less than a fifth of its strength …
