Chapter 372 - Sky Rousing Dan And The Mantra

The Immortal's Wine Store

Yue Bo dragged his weary body listlessly and found himself a spot at the corner. He stared at Jiu Shen's figure with a hint of hope, doubt, and expectation. Could this young man refine an Origin-rank pill? Yue Bo was unsure himself.

The old man's name was Yue Bo. He was the?only remaining guardian of the Profound Dragon Continent.?He participated in the battle against the demons during the great warring period and because of his merits and great power, he rose to the highest position in the Alliance. However, after the Alliance signed a treaty with the Demon Race, he stepped down from his position and lived a solitary and unknown life.

Initially, he planned to stay in this abandoned cemetery for his remaining years and clean his old friends' tombstones, but then...

Yue Bo glanced at Jiu Shen with a penetrating look. Although he had the eyes of a blind man, he could still see using his spiritual vision. He watched as Jiu Shen took out a huge cauldron from out of nowhere. The cauldron looked stunning and majestic. Even Yue Bo had never seen a cauldron as precious as that after thousands of years. He could tell that this huge cauldron was not ordinary just based on its arcane aura and intricate patterns. Only a high-level blacksmith could create such a masterpiece!

"This cauldron..."

Jiu Shen slapped the Heaven Trampling Cauldron, making it emit a loud smacking sound. The ground beneath the cauldron trembled and produced a quaking sound.

'I have a lot of pill recipes that can awaken a human bloodline, but the pill I'm planning to refine is the Sky Rousing Dan. It is the most suitable and easiest pill to concoct based on that brat's circumstance. The Sky Rousing Dan should be able to awaken his Fire Lord Crimson Eyes. Alright. Let's begin...' Jiu Shen took out more than a dozen spiritual ingredients. Some were rare, while others were common.

After taking out all the ingredients from his space earring, Jiu Shen started refining the spiritual plants. His movements were unhurried and relaxed as if he was merely brewing a simple medicinal tea.

Looking at this scene, Yue Bo was stunned. Although he wasn't an alchemist, he saw how his old friend refined pills. And what Jiu Shen was doing right now was completely different than what he remembered. 'What is this kid doing? Is he even refining pills or is he brewing coffee?'

Jiu Shen who was unaware of Yue Bo's thoughts continued the refining process with a calm expression.

Long Meili, Theia, and Ice also watched the scene with interest.

Not long later, Jiu Shen completely concocted the pill. It didn't even take him an hour to concoct the Origin-rank Sky Rousing Dan!

A wave of dense pill aroma covered the cemetery after Jiu Shen opened the lid of the Heaven Trampling Cauldron. He didn't even look at what level of pill he produced and just took everything in his hand. He kept the rest after tossing one to Yue Bo.

"Eat this." He said to the speechless old man who caught the pill with trembling hands.

"Is this really an Origin-rank pill?" He muttered absentmindedly. The pill refining process took less than an hour and he almost thought that he was dreaming. However, when he looked at the brilliantly glowing round pill in his palm and the warmth it was emitting, he knew that it was the real deal. He could even sense a strong amount of true essence and power inside the small pill.

"It's just a mere Origin-rank pill. You don't need to act like that..." Jiu Shen said to the old man as he kept the Heaven Trampling Cauldron inside his space earring.

Yue Bo glanced at Jiu Shen and opened his mouth, but when he saw the look of disdain in that handsome face, he felt a bit ashamed of himself. He then popped the pill into his mouth and swallowed it down his throat.

When the pill entered his stomach, he felt a burning sensation slowly enveloping his body. It then traveled upwards and stopped on his eyes. The burning sensation intensified, making Yue Bo grit his teeth in pain. He let out a soft groan as he clutched his burning eyes.

Argh!

"Endure the pain and refine the medicinal properties of the pill!" He heard Jiu Shen's reminder, so he immediately sat down cross-legged and started refining the remaining medicinal properties left in his body.

Yue Bo breathed heavily as beads of sweat slid down his cheeks. His eyes were shut tight and a look of pain can be seen on his face.

There were only a small bit of medicinal properties left from the Sky Rousing Dan, so it didn't take Yue Bo much time to fully refine the pill.

Suddenly, he felt an itchy sensation in his eyes. Just as he was about to rub his eyes using his hands, he heard a calm voice.

"Open your eyes! The Sky Rousing Dan has already awakened your Fire Lord Crimson Eyes, but it still has to be controlled. I will teach you a mantra that could help you control this power. Listen carefully because I will only say this twice..."

Oh Luk Ga Si Naw

Vol Bul Hie Yet

Yue Bo carefully memorized the chant and silently murmured it as he tried to restrain the power rising in his eyes.

Haa!

He exhaled a breath of warm air as he slowly opened his eyes. A pair of crimson pupils that burned like the sun. The three ladies unconsciously narrowed their eyes when they saw this. They felt slightly uncomfortable looking at Yue Bo's eyes.

Rumble! Rumble!

Jiu Shen and the three ladies raised their heads when they heard the rumbling sounds above the skies.

Dark clouds congregated and produced webs of lightning, illuminating the firmament with a brilliant glow.

"So the pill also gave him the chance to reach the Void God Realm. With the brat's Fire Lord Crimson Eyes, he should barely survive this tribulation despite his old age. When that happens, he would gain back his youth..." Jiu Shen muttered to himself.

Yue Bo stood up and stared at the dark clouds with a grave and excited look. "This is...."
