The golden cage shattered instantly, and the storm feathers were crushed into dust by the claw wind.

The azure arrow collided with the claw shadow, and the stalemate lasted less than half a second before breaking apart.

The dark gold claw shadow, its momentum undiminished, pressed down fiercely on the three of them.

Golden Crocodile Douluo stood at the forefront, his scales all raised, defending with all his might.

But the moment the claw shadow fell, his defense was torn apart like paper, and he fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

The Azure Phoenix and the Radiant Feather were also hit by the aftershocks, spitting out blood at the same time. Their wings and ice wings both dimmed, and they fell down.

With three loud thuds, the three crashed heavily onto the training ground. Xiong Jun landed slowly, retracting his claws, slightly out of breath, but still full of energy.

The stands were completely silent.

Ye Xingchuan clenched his fists, his eyes filled with shock. Ning Fengzhi was stunned for a long time. Even with the three elders joining forces, they were defeated so decisively.

Ye Yunxue stared blankly at Xiong Jun's back in the arena, her heart churning with turmoil.

In his previous life, the Spirit Hall was incredibly powerful, yet now, in front of this person, he couldn't even withstand a single full-force attack.

Gu Yuena chuckled: "I told you he wasn't satisfied. Three was just enough for him to stretch his muscles."

Bibi Dong nodded slightly. She knew the ferocious beast was powerful, but she hadn't expected Xiong Jun's full-force attack to be so terrifying.

Golden Crocodile Douluo struggled to his feet, shaking his head with a wry smile: "I'm impressed. Your Sky-Tearing Claw truly lives up to its name."

Xiong Jun grinned, feeling quite pleased with himself. He had defeated five Title Douluos in a row; he had certainly gained a lot of face.

Chapter 236 The Mysterious Water Pill is Completed

After the commotion at the training ground subsided, Xiong Jun stretched his limbs, his stomach growling twice. He rubbed his stomach, didn't greet the others, and turned to leave, muttering that he was going to hunt a few soul beasts in the Star Dou area to fill his stomach.

His nonchalant manner of leaving after the fight left everyone both amused and exasperated.

Seeing that the competition was over, Ye Guyue raised her hand slightly and said, "Everyone, disperse. Those who are injured should rest well. Go to the pill room to collect the pills as needed."

After saying that, he got up and left.

Ning Fengzhi helped Chen Xin and Gu Rong walk towards the side hall.

Ning Rongrong had already heard the news and was waiting outside the palace. Seeing that the two were injured, she quickly went forward to help them.

Seeing that his daughter was safe and sound, Ning Fengzhi breathed a sigh of relief. As he walked inside, he talked about the competition that had just taken place. Ning Rongrong listened with surprise in her eyes and secretly clicked her tongue in amazement.

Back in the Papal Palace, Ye Guyue sat at her desk, tapping her fingertips lightly on the table.

When the Pill Hall is first established, it needs a few standard pills as a foundation.

After a moment's thought, he thought of the Profound Water Pill. This pill is mild in nature, cleanses the marrow and meridians, and can steadily improve the soul power of low-level soul masters. It has no side effects and can be taken for a long time, making it most suitable for widespread use.

He recalled the method of refining the Mysterious Water Pill:

It is made by purifying the essence blood of more than ten kinds of water-attribute soul beasts as a base, and then adding ice-attribute spiritual herbs in batches to extract the medicinal liquid.

Then, the strong properties are neutralized with deep-sea spiritual spring liquid, and it is slowly simmered at a low temperature with yin fire. Finally, it is nurtured for seven days to condense the pill. No high-level pill furnace is needed; an ordinary bronze furnace can be used to refine it, making it extremely easy to mass-produce.

Ye Guyue pondered in her heart that the Spirit Hall's storeroom had ample reserves of water-attribute spiritual herbs, the essence blood of soul beasts was supplied by the Star Dou Great Forest, and a considerable amount of deep-sea spiritual spring liquid had been brought back from Seagod Island, so there was no shortage of materials.

He raised his hand to summon the steward: "Go to the alchemy room to prepare a bronze alchemy furnace, and then prepare all the materials according to the list."

He planned to personally refine a batch and set the standard for the firing temperature, so as to serve as a model for future disciples of the Pill Hall.

The Profound Water Pill is just the beginning. The Pill Hall will continue to release more pills, building a complete cultivation support system. Only when lower-level Soul Masters can steadily grow can the foundation of the Federation truly be stabilized.

Upon learning that Ye Guyue was going into seclusion to refine pills, Gu Yuena and the other two did not linger.

"Alchemy requires a calm and focused mind. We'll take the children back first and come back when you're finished."

Gu Yuena said softly.

Bibi Dong and A Yin nodded in agreement, and the three of them, along with Ye Yunxue, Ye Xingchuan, and Ye Longyue, turned and left. The palace door closed gently, and the palace immediately fell silent.

Before long, the steward brought over the bronze alchemy furnace and all the necessary materials.

More than ten bottles of water-attribute soul beast essence blood were stacked on one side, ice-attribute spiritual herbs were neatly arranged, and deep-sea spiritual spring liquid was contained in a jade pot, clear and transparent.

Ye Guyue walked to the alchemy furnace, her fingertips brushing against the cool furnace wall.

This was his first time practicing alchemy.

I had only read the prescriptions and pharmacology of medicine before, but had never practiced them myself.

However, he has a natural advantage in controlling and purifying fire, coupled with the precise control of power from the Dragon God's Origin, so even if he's not top-tier, he shouldn't be too bad.

He steadied himself and channeled his soul power to ignite the Yin Fire. The furnace temperature slowly rose, and he first poured in the essence blood of the soul beast to simmer it at a low temperature.

Impurities in the essence and blood are gradually drawn out and filtered clean, and the originally turbid liquid gradually becomes clear and bright.

Following the steps of the elixir recipe, he added the medicinal herbs in batches, controlling the heat perfectly.

The medicinal properties are extracted layer by layer without interfering with each other, and finally the potent effects are neutralized by the deep-sea spring water.

The whole process went exceptionally smoothly, without a moment of chaos or confusion.

The problems of controlling the heat and refining that plague ordinary alchemists are easily solved under the precise control of divine power.

The process, which originally required seven days of nurturing, was compressed by his life force, and in just five days, a faint, clear fragrance of pills wafted from the furnace.

Ye Guyue raised her hand and lifted the furnace lid.

Three or so luminous blue pills lay quietly at the bottom of the furnace, round and full, with restrained medicinal power and uniform color. Their quality far exceeded that of high-grade ordinary pills, and they were faintly approaching the threshold of mid-grade.

He picked up one and examined it closely. For a first attempt at alchemy, the quality was already acceptable. With this sample, the Pill Palace would have a clear standard for mass production and promotion.

Ye Guyue flicked three shimmering blue pills from her fingertips, which hovered in mid-air.

He raised his hand and used telepathy to summon Ye Xingchuan and the other two over.

Before long, three figures rushed into the alchemy room. Ye Xingchuan led the way, with Ye Yunxue following beside him.

Ye Longyue walked at the back, her steps steady. The three of them stopped, their gazes all falling on Ye Guyue beside the alchemy furnace.

"Come here." Ye Guyue raised her hand and beckoned, and three pills slowly floated in front of the three of them. "These are Xuan Shui Pills. They can cleanse the marrow and strengthen the meridians and body, as well as improve meditation efficiency and stabilize the foundation of soul power. The medicinal power is mild, so it's perfect for you to refine them now."

He didn't go into the deeper effects, but the meridians tempered by this pill will have a significantly increased capacity to absorb higher-age soul rings in the future, which is similar to the body tempering with whale glue, only the medicinal properties are gentler and suitable for them to gradually progress at their age.

Ye Yunxue pinched the pill between her fingertips, and a cool, refreshing sensation spread from her fingertips.

She knew in her heart that an ordinary soul master might not be able to obtain a single marrow cleansing pill in their entire life, let alone one of this quality.

The father casually brewed a batch and gave it directly to the three of them.

Ye Xingchuan's eyes lit up, and without thinking, he accepted it: "Thank you, Dad!"

Ye Longyue bowed slightly: "Thank you, Dad."

Without further ado, the three of them sat down cross-legged on the spot and put the pills into their mouths.

The pill melted upon entering the mouth, transforming into a warm, clear stream that slid down the throat and slowly spread throughout the body.

At first, I just felt warm all over, and soon the medicinal power penetrated deep into my meridians.

The gentle force gradually washes away the fine impurities on the meridian walls, slowly widening the originally narrow meridians and increasing their resilience.

The soul power flowed through the meridians, its speed increasing imperceptibly, and its circulation becoming smoother.

Ye Xingchuan gritted his teeth and focused on guiding the energy, feeling refreshed all over, and even the parts of his cultivation that were usually sluggish became much clearer.

Ye Longyue remained calm, steadily controlling the force of the medicine to distribute it evenly throughout her body.

Ye Yunxue used the medicine to calm her mind and clearly felt that her concentration during meditation had improved a lot, and her soul power absorption speed was nearly 20% faster than usual.

Half an hour later, the three of them opened their eyes one after another.

Ye Xingchuan clenched his fist, his whole body radiating energy: "I feel like I'm bursting with strength!"

Ye Longyue nodded slightly: "Your meridians are much stronger now, which will save you a lot of effort in your future cultivation."

Ye Yunxue also stood up, a smile in her eyes. The effect of this pill was even better than she had expected.

Ye Guyue looked at the three of them and said calmly, "The pills are only an aid; the foundation still depends on your own cultivation. From now on, don't miss your daily meditation so that the medicinal effects can be fully absorbed."

"Understood!" the three replied in unison.

After that, the three left.

Ye Guyue is preparing to carry out another round of sweeping reforms.

This arrangement would also make it easier for me to manage other places in the future, and at least ensure that the Spirit Hall Federation can last longer.

The current priority is to prevent the emergence of the Holy Spirit Cult in the future, and if it does emerge, it must be nipped in the bud.

Chapter 237 A Battle Lasting Three Days and Three Nights

Over the next period of time, Ye Guyue compiled more than ten prescriptions.

From low-grade healing pills, Xuan Shui pills, to soul-enhancing pills, standard procedures were established for each category, and the Pill Hall quickly entered the mass production track.

The day when every low-level Soul Master has a basic pill is not far off.

Once the basic system was completed, he began to think about high-level pills.

The Qiankun Creation Pill is ranked among the top pills on the continent, but when one actually starts to study it, it is discovered that the difficulty of refining this pill is far beyond imagination.
