Chapter 911: A Year's Instruction

The current Dou Qi Continent is truly hard to put into words!

After a long silence, the Medicine Emperor could only use the four words "hard to put into words" to describe the present state of the Dou Qi Continent.

The Primordial Emperor Qi has been severed, the method of soul cultivation has been cut off, and the Dou Emperor has vanished. All these things have befallen this generation.

Even he now doesn't know what to say.

Sigh~

After a brief silence, the Medicine Emperor's hoary voice rang out again: "First, swallow the pill you just refined. You are not in your true body right now, and refining the pill consumes only soul energy. This little thing can replenish your soul energy. Then, I will teach you some pill‑refining techniques. I won't claim they're superb, but they're dozens of times better than your pitiful methods."

"Uh, okay."

Hearing that the other side was about to start teaching him pill‑refining, Lin Feng's eyes flashed with intense excitement.

After all, this is a pill‑refining art personally passed down by a Dou Emperor strongman!

Immediately, he gestured, and the energy orb inside the medicine cauldron streaked across the sky before landing in Lin Feng's hand.

He then tossed it into his mouth, his throat moving as he swallowed the round orb.

After all, although this Medicine Emperor is a soul clone, his strength is many times greater than his, so there is no need for any petty tricks.

Therefore, he was not worried about any tricks the other might employ.

Boom!

At the moment the former swallowed the energy orb, he felt a surge of dense energy rise from his abdomen and merge into his limbs and meridians.

Immediately after, he sensed that the soul energy he had spent earlier refining the pill was instantly replenished.

In fact, his soul energy seemed to have grown a few points stronger.

"What a good thing—it not only replenishes my soul energy but also strengthens my soul!"

Sensing the change in his soul, Lin Feng immediately exclaimed with delight.

"Make another batch; this time, I will personally guide you."

Just as the former rejoiced at his strengthened soul energy, the Medicine Emperor's voice echoed again beside him.

While speaking, the Medicine Emperor waved his palm hidden beneath his wide sleeves, and hundreds of energy medicinal herbs instantly materialized around Lin Feng.

"Alright."

Seeing this, Lin Feng quickly suppressed his excitement, immediately manipulated those herbs back into the medicine cauldron, then raised the exotic fire's temperature to scorch the herbs.

As for the Medicine Emperor, once the other entered the proper state, he promptly began teaching more advanced pill‑refining techniques.

In the days that followed, Lin Feng spent his time refining those energy herbs under the Medicine Emperor's instruction.

After each pill was produced, those pills were all swallowed by him.

However, the consumption from refining pills over this period did not accelerate the dissipation of Lin Feng's soul clone.

On the contrary, with the aid of those strange pills, his soul clone grew increasingly formidable.

Compared to when he first arrived, it is now far stronger.

In this monotonous day‑after‑day study, time spun rapidly, and before he knew it, half a year had passed.

Of course, within this sunless river of time, there is no concept of day or night.

And this half‑year span is Lin Feng's own mental calculation.

As for himself, he studied pill‑refining with the Medicine Emperor daily, resting beside him when tired.

During these rests, Lin Feng's only two entertainments were chatting with the Medicine Emperor or watching the lives of predecessors on the river of time.

He knew it was a bit voyeuristic, but this place was unbearably boring.

Aside from chatting with the Medicine Emperor, he had no other way to relieve boredom.

Even cultivation is impossible for his soul clone.

Nevertheless, through this watching, Lin Feng also learned some things and came to understand many matters.

Although he cannot use soul energy to read or write the predecessors' techniques, combat skills, or secret medicine formulas.

He still gained a lot from their oral explanations or introductions.

"Now, this clone of mine can no longer resist the river of time's opposition; I must depart from here, and your training ends here as well."

In this sunless river of time, after roughly more than a year, the Medicine Emperor finally concluded his instruction to Lin Feng.

At this moment, his soul clone, once indistinguishable from a real person, had become over ninety percent illusory.

Even Lin Feng's gaze could pierce his form and see the scene behind him.

"Finally, is it over?"

Hearing the former's words, Lin Feng let out a sigh of emotion.

He immediately performed a respectful student bow, his tone solemn as he said, "Senior, your great kindness I shall never forget. If the Soul Clan truly moves against your family, I will wholeheartedly assist."

Although during this more‑than‑a‑year span the other never explicitly stated what help was needed.

But he could almost be sure that the Medicine Emperor's teaching him for so long could not possibly be just because of that little matter involving Han Shanshan.

"Lin Feng, you are still that clever."

As soon as the former finished speaking, the Medicine Emperor's tone added a few sighs.

During this more‑than‑a‑year period, the Medicine Emperor had naturally learned the little fellow's name and some of his experiences.

But after hearing Lin Feng's words, he still couldn't help feeling a bit regretful.

The former, whether in mind or temperament, possesses the foundation to become a peerless strongman.

But unfortunately, the continent is now in severe decline, and the other, in his youth, did not have access to good resources.

This journey has wasted a great amount of time.

Otherwise, under his own guidance and with sufficient resources, the other might have been able to attempt breaking through the Dou Emperor realm.

Sigh~

But thinking of the current Dou Qi Continent, where even the Primordial Emperor Qi is unattainable, the Medicine Emperor let out another sigh.

Your current accumulation, once your fighting Qi strength reaches the Saint realm, you will surely be able to refine a Nine-grade precious pill quickly; as for the Mysterious pill, refining it more is also not difficult. However, whether you can obtain the Golden Core and higher levels depends on your fortune. Without reaching the Emperor-level soul, the Golden Core is hard to produce.

Speaking to this point, the Medicine Emperor suddenly stretched out his palm.

Whoosh!

Then a torrent of information carrying countless characters surged forth, and before Lin Feng could react, it had already entered the depths of his mind.

Hiss!

Suddenly assaulted by a flood of characters, Lin Feng, unable to digest them in time, also let out a pained intake of breath.

Immediately after, he no longer cared about anything else, quickly sat cross-legged, and began to process this information.
