The Great Wild God - Chapter 47
Chapter 47 Modified Pill Recipe
In Montenegro, the troops surrounded by mountain dong retreated overnight. Apart from the occasional roars of beasts and birds, they were also immersed in a rare silence on the left and right mountain ridges.
“Python Fang Ridge’s Northern Mountain, who hasn’t experienced a life and death calamity? Who hasn’t seen blood flowing into rivers?” Wu Gong Zong Tu stood on the stone hall and watched as the Black Mountain and Mountain Dong barbarian martial artists withdrew from the distant ridge. He sighed slightly and said, “In the Northern Mountain, killing is easy, but surrendering is difficult!”
The once-in-a-decade cold wave and the large-scale descent of the beast herd was the life and death tribulation facing the tribes of the North Mountain of the Python Fang Ridge. Nearly one-third of the tribes of Python Fang Ridge had perished, and in the depths of the lake wasteland, the tribes of the Wilderness who chose to live in the mountains had suffered heavy casualties.
The Black Python only had more than a thousand clansmen, not a single Heavenly Man had fallen into endless slaughter, only seeking his own destruction.
Surviving in the cracks was not easy.
Chen Xun thought to himself that this matter could be considered to be perfectly settled. He said to Grandpa Zongtu, “Grandpa, I’ll help you go down and rest.” He still had a lot to say to Grandpa Zongtu.
Zong Sang and Nan Liao still had a lot of things to do. Chen Xun helped Zong Tu enter the stone hall to rest first and told Grandpa about the reason why he had advanced his cultivation in the Lake Wasteland this time.
However, Chen Xun did not tell the truth about Su Tang giving him the Origin Subduing Technique, the Dragon Binding Technique, and the Nine Origin Nourishing Pill refining method.
For the current Dark Python, the Origin Subduing Technique, Dragon Binding Technique, and the Nine Origin Orifice Nourishing Pill were all unbearable. The Su Clan would definitely not allow these profound arts to be spread out lightly. Once the news was leaked, it would definitely bring the Dark Python a calamity of annihilation.
Chen Xun didn’t want Grandpa to be nervous all day long, so he didn’t tell him about these things.
Chen Xun took out a small bronze bottle containing the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill from his bosom.
“When I left the lake wasteland, Su Tang helped me refine some Nine Yuan Orifice Nourishing Pills. This pill has the marrow of changing blood and nourishing orifices. After consuming it, it is easier to advance to the seventh level of the Blood Transformation Realm after tempering the tendons and cultivating the strength of the barbarian martial arts in the clan. Even for those who were seriously injured, taking the pill would ensure that their life force would not be extinguished. I have some on me, which is more or less enough; “Grandpa, you should keep the rest for now and shape the materials that can be created in the clan …”
Chen Xun poured out ten Nine Yuan Orifice Nourishing Pills and hid them close to his body. He handed the rest over to Grandpa Zongtu along with the small bronze bottle.
The Witchcraft Duke Sect Diagram had long since experienced the miraculous medicinal power of the Nine Origin Nourishing Orifice Pill.
After enlightening the Barbarian Soul, using the Barbarian Soul Divine Splendor to temper one’s muscles, bones, skin, and flesh, as long as one cultivates diligently and painstakingly, advancing to the peak of the sixth
However, to go from the peak of the sixth level to the seventh level of Blood Transformation and become a true high-level Barbarian Martial Cultivator was the second biggest obstacle that most Barbarian Martial Cultivators encountered after enlightening their Barbarian Souls.
For example, the Black Mountain Tribe had five to six thousand clansmen. When they were prospering, there were thirty to fifty people who could comprehend the Barbarian Soul and advance to the Intermediate Barbarian Martial Stage. However, there were never more than three of them at the Upper Barbarian Martial Stage. It could be seen how difficult it was to break through to the Seventh Blood Transformation Stage.
If the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill could help Man Wu easily jump through the seventh level of Blood Transformation, any one of them would be a rare treasure that would cause a clan battle in the northern mountain of Python Fang Ridge. Its value was so high that it was not even inferior to that giant wolf.
Seeing that the small bronze bottle actually contained fifteen Nine Elements Orifice Nurturing Pills, Wu Gong Zong Tu’s hand trembled slightly when he received it. The output of the Black Python Stone Village in the past thirty to fifty years might not even be comparable to the fifteen pills in the small bronze bottle.
Wu Gong Zong Tu naturally knew the importance of these fifteen Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pills to the black python, but how could he have the face to accept these fifteen incomparably precious Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pills from A Xun?
“This time, I have also gained a lot from cultivating the Great Roc Secret Fist in the Lake Wasteland. Although the Great Roc Secret Fist is shallow and may be the foundation of all martial cultivators, I have also merged the Five Powers of the Great Roc Secret Fist into my saber technique. Zong Ya’s left hand is broken. I wonder if I can get Commandant Su Wu’s recommendation to enter the Azure Water Learning Palace again, but I can learn the Barbarian Soul Saber Technique first …”
Chen Xun explained to Grandpa Zongtu the cultivation method of fusing the Great Roc Secret Fist with the Five Powers of the Saber Technique. Then, he copied down the improved refining method of the Essence Gathering Paste and the Black Python Pill and handed it to Grandpa.
**********************
At this moment, Nan Liao and Zong Sang had patrolled from the outside and walked back to the stone hall. They saw Duke Wu and Chen Xun sitting in front of the stone table with sparkling spirits. They smiled and asked, “What are Duke Wu and A Xun talking about?”
“Ah Xun went into the Lake Wasteland this time, he encountered an outsider who was in danger and helped him escape. He gained a lot,” the Witchcraft Duke Sect Diagram knew some details. Even Nan Liao and Zong Sang didn’t say anything. Otherwise, they would cause trouble for Chen Xun and the Black Python. Right now, they only showed Nan Liao the modified recipe for the Black Python Pill that Chen Xun had copied and the small bronze bottle containing 15 Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pills. “Ah Xun handed these over to the stronghold. The Black Python really owed him a lot.”
As the cold wave descended south, the entire Lake Wasteland was covered in ice and snow. It was really hard to imagine how Chen Xun would survive the bitter winter by himself, and his cultivation had actually advanced to this level. It turned out that he had encountered a strange person who was cultivating in the depths of the Wilderness.
Duke Wu had been dying these past few days. He had only consumed one spirit pill and recovered his vitality. There were even signs of improvement in his cultivation. Nanhao naturally knew how precious the spirit medicine contained in this small bronze bottle was.
However, he asked everyone to publicly nominate him as the clan head, knowing that the improved pill recipe was truly precious.
In the Wilderness, there were thousands of spiritual herbs, but not all of them could be consumed directly.
Even if the spiritual medicines that grew in the heavens and earth could be consumed directly, the medicinal power that ordinary barbarian martial artists could absorb was usually extremely different, far inferior to refined medicinal pills.
It was an extremely profound knowledge that different herbs fused together to stimulate medicinal properties and refine medicinal pills with different effects.
The Black Python Pill required sixteen herbs to fuse with the Black Python Saliva. Often, the amount of herbs refined was limited because two or three herbs were rarely produced in the Python Fang Ridge.
If there were two or three improved pill recipes and rare medicinal herbs that had the same medicinal properties, the amount of black python pills that could be refined by a black python in a year would increase by several times.
Fifteen Nine Elements Orifice Nourishing Pills were finally used up one day. The modified pill formula was only a precious treasure with a long stream of water.
However, improving the pill recipe was not an easy task. If one were not familiar with the myriad herbs, if one made a mistake, the spirit herbs could be refined into deadly poisons.
Even if it was the Magus Sect Diagram, he could still recognize thirty to fifty kinds of medicinal herbs in Python Fang Ridge. How could he possibly have the ability to improve them and develop new pill formulas?
*******************
“Is it really effective?”
The pill formula of the Black Python Pill was passed down for a thousand years. If it could be improved, the Black Python would actually have mastered two pill formulas. The number of Black Python Pills that could be refined every year would double. When Nan Liao received the improved pill formula, his hands trembled with excitement and he couldn’t help but be suspicious.
Chen Xun took out a small bronze bottle and opened it to let Nan Liao see the Origin Gathering Paste inside. “I spent several months in the Lake Wasteland. It was on this modified pill recipe that I refined the Origin Gathering Paste. Uncle Nan Liao, have a taste.”
Nan Liao took the small bronze bottle and scooped out some spirit ointment with a spoon. After swallowing it, it turned into spirit medicine fluid, and the boiling medicinal power immediately poured into Hundred Bones Zi Zhuang Qi and blood.
After the bitter winter, the black python pills in the village had long since been used up. The feeling of spiritual herbs nourishing one’s qi and blood was truly missed!
Apart from the fact that the medicinal power of the pill was a few points stronger than that of the Black Python Pill, there were no other abnormalities. It was indeed an improved pill recipe, and it was even stronger than the Black Python Pill.
Southern Liao’s soul trembled. This pair of black pythons was too precious!
“This pill recipe can be copied to any tribe and exchanged for other tribes’ treasures. What do you want Uncle Nanliao to thank you for?” Nan Liao asked.
Chen Xun smiled. If he really wanted to claim compensation, he wouldn’t have copied the pill formula to Grandpa. He wouldn’t have given Grandpa the fifteen Nine Yuan Orifice Nurturing Pills that were exceptionally precious even in Azure Water City.
Some things were his lucky chance, but without Grandpa taking him in, he wouldn’t even have a chance to survive in this wilderness.
If Grandpa hadn’t taught him how to read brute language, identify medicinal herbs, and used his private possession to exchange for the “Dao Connotation Paraphrase” from Daoist Greenwood, what foundation would he have for his cultivation?
If Grandpa hadn’t taught him the refining method of the Black Python Pill and given him the Bronze Medicinal Furnace, how could he have cultivated in the Lake Wasteland for several months without end? How could he have met Su Tang …
Everything had its own karma. Although Grandpa didn’t allow him to join the black python, it was also for his own future. He had already taken the black python as his home in the Heavenly Domain.
In refining pills, Su Clan’s strength was far beyond that of a Thousand Human Tribe like the Black Python. As the proud daughter of the Azure Water Heavens, Su Tang had learned to improve one or two low-level pill formulas. It was really easy.
Compared to the modified Origin Gathering Paste pill formula, the Nine Origin Nourishing Orifice Pill’s pill formula was truly exceptionally precious.
There were many experts in the Su Clan’s Reincarnation Realm, and during the Foundation Establishment Stage, they mainly relied on this pill to exchange blood for marrow and nourish their orifices.
However, this recipe was also extremely important to the Su Clan, and it was absolutely not allowed to be spread out. Chen Xun did not dare to copy it to Grandpa so easily because he was afraid that it would cause a monstrous calamity to the Black Python.
The most crucial ingredient in refining the Nine Orifices Nourishing Pill was the exotic beast’s heart blood. It was not something that the black python could easily obtain at this moment. Even if he copied the pill formula to Grandpa, it would be meaningless.
Chen Xun smiled and said, “Grandpa, Uncle Nan Liao gave me everything I have today. Grandpa, Uncle Nan Liao, how do you want Ah Xun to thank you?”
He knew that after enduring the bitter winter, the pills in the stronghold would probably be used up long ago. He still had a bottle of Essence Gathering Paste in his bosom. He patted his butt and stood up, then said to Nan Liao,
“Take this bottle of Essence Gathering Ointment, Uncle Nanliao. I’m going back to sleep. I haven’t slept peacefully for a day in the Wilderness these past few months.”
