Chapter 38 One Year Period
From that day onward, Dantai Chan's Herb Garden seemed to no longer attract Yu Tangtang, and Wang Yu only saw her once and never saw her again.
This actually relieved him.
He constantly reminded himself with the three words "low-profile," "cautious," and "self-reflection," repeating over and over that this was the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, not a land of benevolence.
Things that looked beautiful might be hiding deadly poison.
Thus, in the blink of an eye, a year passed.
Today was the first day of his Outer Sect Life - 2 years, 1 month, and 1 day!
After hiding in the Herb Garden for a year, either Xu Jiao Jiao had given up, or she had switched to more sinister methods, so he still needed to be careful and vigilant.
During this period.
The Ice Coffin Spell and Phantom Form Steps had both reached Perfection one after another. With his Cultivation Level, he could only unleash them twice at full power, and he treated them as trump cards.
The Cold Dragon Alchemy Art and Cold Blood Pill had also been placed into the Placement Slot and reached Perfection successively.
Two months ago, he had refined two furnaces of Cold Blood Pills, and only produced three Top Grade pills in total. His Pill Refining Art had reached the pinnacle of the Qi Condensation Stage.
Technically, he was already very skilled, but his only weaknesses were in his Divine Sense and Cultivation Level, which were still far from sufficient. Otherwise, in perfect condition, he should have been able to produce six Top Grade Cold Blood Pills.
A furnace of Top Grade Elixir Pills would only yield three pills. It perfectly absorbed all the Elixir Effect of a set of Spirit Herbs, and no excess medicinal power was produced to create more Cold Blood Pills.
Of course, this was only the case for the Cold Blood Pill. He was not sure if other First Tier Elixir Pills were the same, but he would know more after trying them out in the future.
In terms of Cultivation, cultivating in two Placement Slots for a year had increased his Spirit Power by seventy-two Dao. Coupled with the Effect of the Cold Blood Pill and his own Cultivation gains.
His current Spirit Power Cultivation Level was one hundred and thirty Dao, almost halfway there, with half still to go.
However, after taking Top-Grade Cold Blood Pills, his Cultivation speed had further accelerated. He would definitely be able to break through to the Qi Condensation Stage Fifth Layer in another year, which was already quite fast.
The Placement Slot's Effect was based on Wang Yu's Aptitude. It was hard to imagine how fast his Cultivation speed would be if he had a Heavenly Spirit Root; it was truly a pity.
The current Placement Slots were as follows:
[Placement Slot 1: Cold Blood Technique]
[Placement Slot 2: Cold Blood Technique]
[Placement Slot 3: Cold Dragon Alchemy Art (Fragmented/Completing…)]
「Cold Dragon Alchemy Art (100/100): Eighteen Pill Refinings a day, thirty years to complete.」
After the Pill Refining Art reached Perfection, the number of Pill Refining cycles placed daily increased by two, and the suffix "Completing" was added. The time required was even longer than for a Foundation Establishment Cultivation Method, a full thirty years.
This proved that the Placement Slot did indeed have the Effect of completion.
But another problem followed: how long would it take to complete a Nascent Soul Secret Art? With Wang Yu's current knowledge, it would take at least a century.
A fragmented Secret Art that could be completed in three months meant that he would have to be a "Corpse" for over a hundred years. His second brother couldn't use it either, so he had to be cautious.
But the feeling of lacking an arm was indeed uncomfortable, and it also affected his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment. Placing the Corpse Demon Secret Art was almost a must!
Difficult—
Whenever he thought of this, he felt deep hatred for Steward Liu, who had caused him to lose an arm, and he resented him daily! If it weren't for the other party fleeing in fear of punishment, he would now have the ability to get some of his old debts back.
The one-year Mission period was over, and he waited another seven days.
Dantai Chan returned with a radiant face, apparently having gained a lot of benefits. When she saw Wang Yu, she rarely showed a smile.
"Has anything happened during this period?"
Wang Yu quickly stepped forward, appearing nervous.
"Senior Dantai, the Moonlight Fruit ripened not long after you left, but a little white-haired girl picked all the fruits. This disciple didn't even finish a sentence before she disappeared…"
Hearing this, Dantai Chan's face immediately turned cold, and she narrowed her eyes to size him up: "Did she say anything?"
"She didn't say anything, she seemed to be… taking a walk."
"It's nothing, you are not responsible for this matter."
Wang Yu pretended to be relieved. He deliberately concealed his contact with Yu Tangtang.
He was afraid that this Dantai Chan was concerned about face. If she knew her Status as a "Human Slave + wet nurse," she would indeed have feelings of shame and resentment, and it would be reasonable for her to kill him.
Concealing the conversation was the correct approach.
"This is your reward. Go, and don't accept any more Missions from me in the future."
"…Disciple obeys."
Four hundred Contribution Points + three Frost Ice Nine Leaf Grasses were his harvest for this year, a little less, but he personally went to the Alchemist Society for every transaction, and he had earned a lot of Spirit Stones.
With money in his pocket, gathering Ingredients for Cold Blood Pills was not so difficult, and he could even consider refining "Frost Dragon Pills." The Reverse Spirit Blood Sect's Treasure Vault definitely had Second Rank ice Attribute Demon Cores of snake-type demons.
If he could cultivate "Frost Dragon Pill Fire," he would not only have another method of attack, but his Pill Refining Art could also exert its most essential Effect, which would be of great benefit to him.
He could inquire about the situation first, but the Contribution Points in his hand were far from enough. In addition to this, Wang Yu was also considering whether to go out on Sect Missions.
Don't look at how smoothly everything was going for him now, in fact, many of his past actions had buried hidden dangers, and there were still unresolved troubles.
He could hide for a while, but not forever.
A better way to deal with it would be to find a Core Formation Elder to become his master, solving the problem once and for all.
Unfortunately, this was not realistic.
Performing Sect Missions outside the Sect could at least help him safely get through a period of safety, and being outside was freer than inside the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, less oppressive, and he didn't have to consider the reactions of all parties in everything he did.
Except that Resources and environment would be slightly inferior, all other aspects were better than inside the Sect.
Now that he had a lot of Spirit Stones in hand, he could prepare everything in all aspects, and then find a suitable Mission to go out on, stay for ten or twenty years before returning to the Sect.
By then, whether it was his Cultivation Realm or Pill Refining Art, they could be changed from hidden to public and whitewashed.
Finding an Opportunity as an excuse was easy, but staying in the Sect from the Spirit Slave period and showing strange characteristics was abnormal.
In the Demonic Path, you are a Useless Spirit Root, yet your performance in all aspects is better than a Dual Spirit Root. Isn't this courting death?
Thinking of this.
Using the Night Concealment Spell to conceal his Aura, Wang Yu left the Herb Garden and went straight to the Ice and Snow Tower. Cooperating with Zhao Shang not only turned hostility into friendship, but also allowed him to enjoy many privileges.
Of course, he still had the necessary precautions. If there was an Opportunity to completely eliminate this person, Wang Yu would not hesitate. He believed Zhao Shang was the same, both of them felt that the other knew too much.
On the way, Wang Yu kept planning what to prepare.
Various auxiliary Elixir Pills, such as Spirit Replenishing Pills, Healing Pills, Hemostasis Powder, and so on.
He had to prepare at least ten Top-Grade Cold Blood Pills until his body developed Pill Barrier, after all, Spirit Herbs would not be so easy to gather outside.
And the most important Magic Artifact! When going out, Magic Artifacts were a must, and if he had extra money, he should also prepare a set of simple Formation Flags.
Things like these required a lot of preparation.
In a short while.
The Ice and Snow Tower arrived.
"Zhao Shang, help me with a favor."
He hadn't seen him for a year, and the other party's Aura had increased again, but Zhao Shang was very unwilling to see Wang Yu, this plague god.
"Brother, I'll call you brother, please don't use special privileges anymore."
