Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

Hsu Yuan had already left. However, the old man in the room who Hsu Yuan called Academy Master once again focused his attention on the book in his hands, as if he had forgotten the existence of Chen Yu and Moo Su.    

    

Moo Su stood at the door without saying a word. The atmosphere inside the room was silent.    

    

"It's this way again!" Chen Yu twitched his lips. After waiting for a while, Chen Yu was silently cursing. He just walked around with his hands behind his back, ignoring the old man as he wandered around the room.    

    

The furnishings inside the house could be said to be extremely simple, it didn't seem like the residence of the owner of the house. However, Chen Yu's eyesight wasn't bad either, and as he looked around, he saw quite a few good things.    

    

For example, there was a painting on the wall. Not only was the painting extremely exquisite, it also contained a certain kind of profound concept, causing people to feel empty after looking at it a few more times.    

    

There was also a pill furnace on a square table. It was simple and full of ancient and mysterious runes. Chen Yu looked at it and caressed it with his hand. He couldn't help but let out a cry.    

    

Of course, Chen Yu had seen the pill furnace before, but he had never personally played with it. In Bloodfire Emperor's memory, he had a few pill refining experiences, but his attainment wasn't that high. With nothing else to do, Chen Yu merged with his memories and began to carefully study the pill furnace.    

    

Even though Chen Yu's attainment was not high, he could tell that this pill furnace was not an ordinary item. The furnace's body was covered in runes, especially those on the inside, they could be considered profound. Chen Yu could see that there were different types of runes that gathered, dispersed, circulated, and formed a defensive formation.    

    

Seeing Chen Yu's performance, Moo Su's eyes were a little glazed.    

    

Dao Hong's position in the Langya Sword Sect was extremely high, even Sect Master Zuo Hsingzhou would have to treat him with respect if he saw him. However, when Chen Yu came here, he was actually like one of those shops in the mortal world.    

    

"Cough." A light cough sounded. Dao Hong had finally put down his book and stood up from his rattan chair.    

    

His face was ancient and his eyes were cloudy like an old man in his twilight years. While he was staring at Chen Yu like this, Chen Yu had a feeling that all his secrets had been seen through.    

    

Back then, when Chen Yu came out of the Ruling Spirit Sect, he had the same feeling when he met the old man guarding the entrance to the secret realm.    

    

Could it be that the master of the Medicinal Spirit Academy was actually a Super Expert of the Deity Entering Stage? This feeling made Chen Yu very uncomfortable. His heart skipped a beat as he thought of something else.    

    

"Get out!" Without waiting for Chen Yu to think any further, Dao Hong suddenly growled.    

    

Chen Yu was stunned.    

    

Dao Hong pointed at the door and said, "Get out!"    

    

Chen Yu couldn't help but scratch his head and asked: "Go out? "Where to?"    

    

"Dou Qing!" Dao Hong was expressionless as he shouted in a low voice.    

    

The young man quickly appeared at the door and respectfully asked, "Master?"    

    

"Give each of them a medicine bowl and a portion of Vajra powder!" Dao Hong laid down again and said.    

    

"Alright!" Dou Qing nodded, turned around, and disappeared at the door.    

    

Vajra Powder? Chen Yu did not understand and looked at Moo Su. The latter had a similar look of bewilderment, but he still walked towards the door.    

    

However, after thinking about it carefully, Chen Yu still turned around and walked out of the door as he mumbled, "Deliberately mystifying!"    

    

Dao Hong completely ignored Chen Yu's grumbling and continued to read while holding the book.    

    

After waiting in the yard for less than a minute, Dou Qing walked out from a house nearby. In each of his hands was a medicine bowl that he handed over to Chen Yu and Moo Su.    

    

The medicine bowl was very big and heavy to the touch. Chen Yu took the bowl and said, "Senior Brother, what is the meaning of this? We are not here to spoil the medicine!"    

    

Dou Qing grinned, giving off a clear and bright feeling. "I don't know. I am only following Master's arrangements! "    

    

After speaking, Dou Qing picked up his medicine bowl and started making things neither light nor heavy. The sound of the medicine was still rhythmic.    

    

Chen Yu put the medicine bowl to one side. He couldn't figure out Dao Hong's intentions.    

    

According to Chen Yu's guess, the reason why he was brought along with the Medicinal Spirit Academy was to come into contact with suspected practitioners of the Medicinal Spirit Academy. However, the act of him being asked to make medicine completely overturned Chen Yu's guess.    

    

Du, du, du. Chen Yu was still thinking when he heard a sound of someone making medicine beside him.    

    

Chen Yu turned his head to look and saw Moo Su holding a bowl in one hand and a pestle in the other. He was already starting to concoct medicine.    

    

Compared to Dou Qing's sound of concocting medicine with a strong rhythm, Moo Su's sound of concocting medicine was as sharp as silk. Sometimes light, sometimes heavy, and it was very ear-piercing. However, Dou Qing's medicine concocting voice wasn't disturbed, and the rhythm was still clear.    

    

Staring at Moo Su for a long time, Moo Su didn't even have the intention to talk to Chen Yu. Chen Yu couldn't help but bitterly smile. Then, he carefully examined the medicine bowl in his hand, only to see that there were a few medicinal herbs inside. Among them was something that seemed to be moist like sand and stone.    

    

"Alright, isn't it just making medicine? I would like to see what's so special about it! " Chen Yu mumbled. With his right hand holding the pestle, he dug it into the bowl neither lightly nor heavily.    

    

A dull impact came from his hand. The sound was similar to Moo Su's voice, as if the cloth was torn.    

    

"Hmm?" Chen Yu's brows twitched as he controlled the power in his hands. He carried on pounding the ground for a few more times, but the sound was like a clashing of gravel. He was completely unable to produce the sound of Dou Qing.    

    

"Interesting!" Chen Yu picked up the medicine pestle and looked into the bowl. The fresh herbs inside had already been broken and liquid was overflowing, but those sand-like things were still intact.    

    

Chen Yu thought of something and a stream of Astral Energy flowed into his palm, wrapping around the entire medicinal pestle. Then, he used his strength to hit the pestle.    

    

This time, there was a sound like metal striking stone, but the sand in the medicine bowl was still intact.    

    

What was weird was that the wooden medicine bowl was still in good condition. Chen Yu did not crush it, which meant that the material of the medicine bowl was extraordinary.    

    

"Sand is the toughest type of sand. To grind it, other than using Spiritual Dipper s, one must also control their telepathic thoughts!" Dou Qing's voice suddenly sounded. "If I can create a Vajra Powder, it will benefit the control of your Spiritual Dipper as well as the tempering of your divine intents!"    

    

Chen Yu looked over at Dou Qing, who didn't turn around, still unhurriedly pounding the medicine pestle.    

    

However, the warning was still very obvious.    

    

"Spirit sands? Just like the Stellar Sand s? " Chen Yu asked.    

    

"Yes, it's very common for spiritual sand to be used as medicine!" Dou Qing still didn't turn her head and replied, "Adamantine was hard. It was the most powerful thing. With the support of the jade-green grass, Cloud Anchor Seed, Hong Bei Powder, and Overlord's Branch, it was refined into a Vajra Powder and applied to the surface of the human skin for three days. It can make the skin as indestructible as adamantine sand!"    

    

Chen Yu was amazed that the Golden Vajra Powder had such an effect.    

    

Compared to Langya Sword Sect, Chen Yu's shallow ability to differentiate and refine medicine obviously was far from enough.    

    

"Senior brother Dou, how long have you been concocting medicine for?" Chen Yu asked with a thought.    

    

"Since childhood!" Dou Qing replied.    

    

Chen Yu couldn't help but take a glance at Dou Qing when he heard this. From this concise answer, he knew that Dou Qing had been in the Medicinal Spirit Academy since young and had probably been taken in as a disciple by Wu Tie a long time ago.    

    

"How long will it take you to create a Vajra Powder now?" Chen Yu continued to ask.    

    

"Half a year!" Dou Qing was still calmly concocting medicine, but her answer was very natural.    

    

Chen Yu couldn't help but be shocked.    

    

Dou Qing, who had started concocting drugs since he was young, had to spend half a year to create the Vajra Powder. From this, one could see how difficult it was to get his hands on it.    

    

"Looks like Dao Hong is purposely making things difficult for me?" Chen Yu changed his mind and found it hard to understand. It was his first time meeting Dao Hong, how did he end up in such a difficult situation?    

    

After a long while, Chen Yu shook his head and started to work wholeheartedly.    

    

Since even the direct disciple of Dao Hong, Dou Qing, was able to calm his heart and make medicine, treating the mashing of 'Vajra Powder' as a form of cultivation, since Chen Yu didn't have anything else to do, he didn't mind settling his heart to experience it.    

    

Tap, tap, tap. Three different sounds of concocting medicine rose and fell one after another.    

    

At the beginning, Chen Yu found it difficult to concentrate. Every time the medicine pestle landed, it would emit an ear-piercing sound and his attention would be attracted by the sound of the impact.    

    

As the annoyance continued, Chen Yu's thoughts started to get chaotic.    

    

Realizing that he was affected by the ear-piercing sound, Chen Yu closed his eyes and stopped focusing his attention on the medicine bowl.    

    

As a result, Chen Yu's annoyance disappeared, but he was not focused. Various thoughts and thoughts flooded into his mind, so much so that his voice became weak and intermittent.    

    

Time passed. Chen Yu once again focused his attention on the medicine bowl. He stared at the sand in the bowl and started to control the change in his body's spirit energy, as well as the power of the pestle dropping.    

    

The annoyance reappeared, causing Chen Yu to feel anxious.    

    

It looked like a simple medicine, but it wasn't as simple as he thought.    

    

Chen Yu did not stop making the medicine and continued to change. At some point, he finally found the best strength and landing point, causing the sound of the medicine to become less ear-piercing.    

    

Chen Yu's disgust lessened a lot, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.    

    

With every sound, there was a hint of charm.    

    

Chen Yu suddenly realized that as long as his heart was calm, as long as he didn't force himself to break the adamantine ore, the process of concocting the medicine wasn't too difficult.    

    

As time passed, Chen Yu felt that the thoughts in his mind gradually became calmer, and there were no longer any distracting thoughts appearing.    

    

An unknown amount of time had passed, and at some point in time, Chen Yu, who had his eyes closed, suddenly discovered that his consciousness had entered into the Sea Consciousness Space.    

    

In Chen Yu's Sea of Consciousness, the starlight was pure and clean. He "saw" another person holding a medical pestle under the stars, and was repeating the action of concocting drugs.    

    

However, in his sea of consciousness, there was no sound of concocting medicine, but every time the medicine pestle landed, the starlight would begin to circulate like a fog, as if the whole thing was shrinking.    

    

Suddenly, Chen Yu saw that around him, within the starlight, there was a five-colored light converging into the starlight. The light fluctuated non-stop as the five colors of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth formed a tight circle like rising and falling tides.    

    

Looking at this scene, Chen Yu's mind was clear. He did not think too much and did not feel that there was anything strange about this scene.    

    

It was only when a blood-red beam of spiritual light suddenly appeared within the medicine bowl.    

    

At this moment, Chen Yu felt a strong spiritual fluctuation, and then he suddenly woke up. The other him in his sea of consciousness as well as his entire Sea Consciousness Space had disappeared at the same time.    

    

Chen Yu suddenly opened his eyes!
