Douluo's Demon Blade Thousand Blades and the Original Martial Soul

Chapter 69 Elixirs

Inside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Lin Yizhang was packing his things. There were only two days left before school started, and it was time to return to Tiandou City.

Sensing the results he had achieved over the past two months within his storage soul tool, Lin Yizhang revealed a bright smile.

In two months, Lin Yizhang successfully refined many pills with special effects, among which four were most helpful to Soul Masters.

The first type is the "Body Tempering Pill," which enhances physical strength. According to tests, one Body Tempering Pill can enhance the physical strength of a level 51 Power Attack Soul King to around level 53.

The second type is the "Soul Ascension Pill." One Soul Ascension Pill can increase the soul power of a Soul King-level Soul Master by about 2/5 levels, a Soul Grandmaster by about 2/3 levels, and a Soul Venerable by a full level. If a lower-level Soul Master takes it, the benefits will be even greater if the pill doesn't overpower their body.

The third type is "Thunderbolt Pill," which has a stronger effect because it is made from many kinds of potent medicines. Its function is to greatly increase the user's strength in a short period of time.

The fourth type is the "Antidote Pill," which works as long as the poison isn't a mental poison like that of the Soul-Eating Spider King. If the poison isn't strong, it can directly neutralize it; if it's a potent poison like that of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, it can only suppress the toxicity.

These four types of pills are all made from relatively common herbs, and their effects only apply to Soul Masters below the Soul Emperor level. Later, if we try adding top-grade herbs like the Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma and Cinnabar Lotus from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, I believe even powerful figures like Title Douluos will be able to enjoy the benefits of these pills.

After testing with soul beasts, it was found that there were no obvious side effects from taking Body Tempering Pills and Soul Ascension Pills, and both pills could be taken consecutively without diminishing their efficacy. However, it is necessary to refine the medicinal power of the pills in a timely manner after taking them, and one should not take the next pill before fully refining the medicinal power of the previous one.

Although no obvious side effects have been found, relying entirely on pills to improve one's soul power cultivation would likely reduce a soul master's future potential.

A Soul Master's potential determines the ultimate height they can reach, while elixirs enable them to reach that height more quickly, much like a catalyst in a chemical reaction.

It can only be said that taking elixirs is like drinking alcohol: "A little is beneficial, but too much is harmful."

As for the third type of Thunderbolt Pill, its side effects are very obvious. After taking it, one will fall into a period of weakness that lasts from half an hour to seven or eight days. During this period, it becomes difficult to mobilize soul power, and the body will also be very weak.

Taking two or more Thunderbolt Pills at once, or taking them again during a period of weakness, can greatly increase one's strength, but it may damage one's meridians and ruin one's future as a Soul Master.

These four kinds of pills are all very useful and practical. The key is that once you learn how to make pills, you can produce them on a large scale.

However, there are thresholds to alchemy. Alchemy requires the use of soul power to control it and the participation of mental power. Weak soul masters simply cannot do it.

Lin Yizhang planned to teach Dugu Bo alchemy. In the future, he would only need to teach Dugu Bo the alchemy formulas he had deduced and the scientific alchemy methods. This way, it wouldn't delay his cultivation time. With Dugu Bo's strength, he could refine several batches at once, which was much faster than his own.

Moreover, as long as I show my current success to Dugu Bo, he will definitely ask me for advice without me even having to ask. After all, he has worked in this industry before and is a seasoned worker, as can be seen from the fact that he often concocts those poisons and antidotes.

Most importantly, after Dugu Bo learns alchemy, I will compile the properties of the poisonous herbs that appeared in the Yin-Yang Well into a book for him. Then Dugu Bo can try to use those herbs to make poisons. With the medicinal power of those herbs, the poisons made will definitely be extremely powerful. This will definitely help Dugu Bo quickly comprehend his own path of poison.

Therefore, teaching Dugu Bo alchemy is a win-win situation, as it can both liberate oneself and give Dugu Bo the opportunity to comprehend his poison theory to improve his strength.

After packing his things, Lin Yizhang left and quickly traversed the Sunset Forest.

With Lin Yizhang's current strength, if he focuses solely on his journey and ignores the soul beasts and soul masters hunting for souls, he's highly unlikely to encounter any danger. If he does encounter danger, it only proves that Lin Yizhang has bad luck.

Having safely returned to Tiandou City, Lin Yizhang first went back to his small courtyard.

Upon entering, one could see Zhang Fan practicing Rasengan in the courtyard.

A fully formed Rasengan appeared in Zhang Fan's palm, but it wasn't very stable, sometimes expanding and sometimes deflated.

Looking at the Rasengan that seemed ready to explode at any moment, Lin Yizhang was sweating bullets for Zhang Fan.

Hearing the door open, Zhang Fan knew someone had come in. Distracted, the Rasengan in his palm became even more unstable.

When he saw that the person who came in was Lin Yizhang, the Rasengan in his palm exploded with a bang. Zhang Fan quickly used his soul power to protect himself and dodged away.

Lin Yizhang also quickly dodged.

After the explosion, Zhang Fan walked over with an embarrassed expression, stammering as if he wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to speak.

Seeing Zhang Fan's embarrassed appearance, Lin Yizhang seemed to understand why Zhang Fan had exploded as soon as he saw the Rasengan in his palm.

The reason is that Zhang Fan felt ashamed that he couldn't master the Rasengan after practicing for nearly two months, and he didn't dare to face himself, the creator of the Rasengan!

Zhang Fan knew that Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had learned it very quickly, while he himself had been unable to learn it for a long time, so he felt embarrassed.

After Lin Yizhang figured all this out, he didn't know how to start the conversation. When Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were learning the Rasengan, he taught them step by step, so they were able to get the hang of it quickly. But Zhang Fan was only relying on the training manual he gave him, so of course he would find it difficult.

Zhang Fan's performance also shows that even with their own cultivation manual, it's not so easy for the native inhabitants of Douluo Continent to learn their own self-created soul skills.

Looking at Zhang Fan, whose face was flushed with embarrassment, Lin Yizhang couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Hahaha, Zhang Fan, you're too funny."

When Zhang Fan saw Lin Yizhang laugh, he couldn't help but laugh along.

After laughing, the two sat down together on a chair and started chatting.

Lin Yizhang said, "It's already quite impressive that you've mastered the Rasengan to this level in just two months using only a cultivation method guide. If I hadn't personally guided Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling in their cultivation, it would have taken them much longer to learn it. So don't think you're stupid. I'll guide you in your cultivation when I have time, and I believe you'll be able to completely master this self-created soul skill, the Rasengan, in less than a week."
