Chapter 142: Medicinal Pills for Increasing Soul Power

The issue of medicinal herb efficacy is simply a dead end for alchemy.

One must cultivate herbs containing more efficacy; the only place that can allow herbs to grow without turning them into Soul Beasts is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Jerry arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well once again; if Jerry hadn't known about this place beforehand, he truly wouldn't have discovered anything different about it.

Dugu Bo is currently imprisoned in the Spirit Hall; it is basically impossible for him to get out.

However, even though this is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, it is actually not a very large area. With the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as the center, only the area within a 30-meter radius has an effect. Calculating the area, it is only 188 square meters, not even half as big as Jerry's home.

Because it is under a cliff, the usable area is currently not even 188 square meters.

Jerry began to renovate these cliffs, first blasting these cliffs into pieces, and then collecting the broken cliff fragments into his ring.

In one afternoon, Jerry renovated an open space of 500 square meters.

He began to build a Defense Array on this open space, and he also set up a sign with large stones in a circle on the outside, with the three large characters "Spirit Hall" written on it.

That afternoon, many Spirit Masters heard the noise and ran over, but after seeing the characters for Spirit Hall, they left one after another; ordinary people dare not provoke the Spirit Hall.

After the Defense Array was set up, Jerry set up a small Teleportation Array, then returned to the Spirit Hall to arrange for people from the Development Department to come and build houses and reclaim wasteland.

Jerry really didn't want to do it himself; he found it troublesome. It was better to let others do it. Leave professional matters to professional people, and he could just move in with his bags packed.

The 188 square meters in the middle were quickly reclaimed, and several houses were built in the outer circle. Jerry also arranged for a Xiulianchang, and it was a maximum-power Xiulianchang that could directly make the concentration of soul power in the air reach 600 times.

At this concentration, the Soul Pressure is not small; a Soul Saint would be pressed to the ground, a Spirit Douluo could barely stand, and a Title Douluo could only walk slowly.

However, for Jerry, this bit of Soul Pressure is nothing at all.

Jerry took out many medicinal herbs and filled the 188 square meters completely, and used the water from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to irrigate them. Jerry discovered that the energy in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had recovered a little; it was ready-made nutrient solution!

Moreover, after Jerry increased the soul power concentration here, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well recovered even faster.

Jerry is becoming more and more interested in what is under the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

He tried diving down, but even at a depth of 3000 meters, he still hadn't seen the bottom, and the water pressure was too great. Even though Jerry is now a God Body, he could only dive to a depth of 3000 meters.

Relying on his own physical body to dive to the bottom is indeed a bit difficult. When he has time, Jerry must research a submarine. Humans are good at using tools; if he can't do it himself, he will develop tools.

After going ashore, Jerry released his Growth Skill on these medicinal herbs. Jerry calculated that according to the soul power he released just now, these medicinal herbs should have already been raised to the cultivation of a Ten-year Soul Beast, but due to the special terrain, these medicinal herbs did not turn into Soul Beasts, which greatly increased the medicinal properties of the herbs.

The matter of the medicinal herbs was finally solved. The sad thing is that only Jerry can force their growth. There is a group of Fairies in the Star Dou Great Forest now; if he brought them all over, the effect would definitely be top-notch, but the Fairies are equally important to the Star Dou Great Forest. One more thing to do in the future: develop the Fairy race.

Ever since the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was drained of energy by the Crystal Ball, the effect of accelerating plant growth has disappeared; he can only wait for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to slowly recover.

Although the acceleration effect is gone, Jerry increased the soul power concentration in the air, which can be considered a remedy.

After forcing the growth of a batch of hundred-year medicinal herbs, Jerry began to try alchemy.

After taking out all the things used for alchemy, Jerry took several hundred-year Lingzhi, then chopped all these Lingzhi into pieces, threw them into the pot, added water, and boiled them slowly over low heat.

He added a little water from time to time until the Lingzhi inside were boiled into dregs. Because Jerry didn't know how long to boil them to extract all the medicinal efficacy from the herbs, he simply boiled them into dregs; this way, he estimated that all the medicinal properties were boiled out.

Then he filtered these medicinal liquids. After filtering, he evaporated them first to evaporate more water, and finally put them into the alchemy furnace.

Jerry began to slowly adjust the temperature of the alchemy furnace, increasing it bit by bit, and finally obtained a pile of sticky stuff.

Then he continued to increase the temperature of the alchemy furnace. Wisps of white gas began to drift out from this sticky stuff. Until finally, no more white gas overflowed, Jerry took out a portion and rolled it into marble-sized pills.

After cooling, Jerry checked it and found no problems. But Jerry wouldn't eat it himself; he would find a few Soul Beasts to test it later.

For the other part, Jerry continued to increase the temperature. As the temperature increased, crystallized things gradually appeared. Jerry hurriedly controlled it to divide it into marble-sized spheres. Finally, the crystals of each sphere began to melt, and eventually merged into one. At this time, Jerry began to control it to cool down slowly.

Why not stop heating? He had tried it once before; if he stopped heating directly at high temperature, the pill would burn as soon as it touched the outside air, and finally burn until nothing but dregs remained.

So he could only cool it down slowly while it was in the alchemy furnace, and finally cool it to below one hundred degrees before taking it out, so it wouldn't burn.

Jerry took out the pills from the two stages and compared them. The pills taken out earlier were white and looked a bit like pearls; the ones taken out later were in a crystalline state, transparent and glowing with luster.

Just in time in the Sunset Forest, he went out and caught a few Soul Beasts at random, and then Jerry fed these two types of pills to them respectively.

The Soul Beast that ate the white pill had its cultivation increased by ten years. The absorption process was slightly violent, and the Soul Beast felt a little uncomfortable. This violence was something only a Soul Beast could withstand; if it were a Spirit Master, it might not work.

The Soul Beast that ate the transparent pill had its cultivation increased by fifty years, and the medicinal effect was very gentle during absorption. It was absorbed very easily, and this Soul Beast did not have any discomfort.

After repeatedly finding one hundred Soul Beasts, Jerry also confirmed the effect of this pill. With the same medicinal herbs, the transparent ones have better efficacy than the white ones, and they are gentle.

Subsequently, Jerry took out a transparent one and swallowed it. As soon as the pill entered Jerry's body, it began to radiate its medicinal efficacy. He felt it was very gentle, but this pill had no improvement for Jerry.

Jerry's dantian is very large, and the Gaseous Soul Power inside is still not full even now. A pill refined from hundred-year medicinal herbs is like a cup of water on a burning cartload of firewood; it's not worth mentioning!

Jerry teleported directly to the Spirit Hall, and then among the imprisoned Spirit Masters, he found Spirit Masters at every stage. It was a coincidence that the Spirit Master at the Title Douluo stage was exactly Dugu Bo. Looking at his appearance, he was not having a very good time.

Who told him to be an opponent of his master before? It is estimated that he was tortured quite badly by his master.

Jerry fed each of them a pill and then observed their reactions.

The Soul Scholar absorbed it for eight hours before finishing. His cultivation increased directly from the original level three to level ten. Without a Spirit Ring, he felt the total amount of soul power in this Soul Scholar's body, which was roughly between level fourteen and fifteen. Due to the slow absorption, a lot of energy in the pill dissipated from the body into the air.

The Spirit Master took six hours, and the situation was about the same. His cultivation increased from the original level fourteen to level eighteen, and there was also dissipation during the process.

The Great Spirit Master took four hours, and his cultivation increased from the original level twenty-two to level twenty-five, with a little bit of dissipation during the process.

The Soul Elder took two hours, and his cultivation increased by one level, with no dissipation.

The Soul Ancestor absorbed it very quickly, and his cultivation increased by a sliver.

There was no effect for those above that level. After all, they were only hundred-year medicinal herbs; it is normal that there was no efficacy.

It seems that the pills refined from hundred-year medicinal herbs are most suitable for the Soul Elder rank to absorb, at least it's not a waste.
