Chapter 191: White Light Evolves!

"Father, the pill is most unstable right now; try to stabilize its structure with soul power!"

"The pill is about to condense. Father, reduce the flame quickly; the Bone-Growing Pill cannot be tempered with high fire during condensation."

...

This was already the third batch of ingredients. Ye Hang's first two attempts had both ended in failure.

Ye Yuan had been observing the alchemy process from the side and offering guidance, but Ye Hang ultimately failed.

Although Ye Hang's refining was riddled with flaws in Ye Yuan's eyes, he was powerless now and had to rely on Ye Hang.

Fortunately, Ye Hang's alchemy skills were not poor. After two failures and Ye Yuan's guidance, Ye Hang had improved significantly.

This third attempt went much more smoothly. Previously rough spots were now much more refined.

Of course, this was thanks to Ye Yuan's meticulous guidance. Otherwise, even if Ye Hang had ten or twenty batches of ingredients, he would probably have ruined them all.

After all, this was his first time refining a beast pill, and the key points for refining beast pills were completely different from those for human pills.

With Ye Yuan's insight guiding Ye Hang, many points were highly targeted, giving Ye Hang a sense of sudden enlightenment.

So after only two attempts, he already had a thorough understanding of his mistakes.

"Bone-Growing Pill, condense!"

With Ye Hang's low shout, the Bone-Growing Pill was finally refined.

Ye Hang took the pill from the cauldron but sighed, "What a pity, it's low-grade."

"It's fine, Father is already very skilled! We still have two batches of ingredients left; we should be able to refine a medium-grade or even high-grade pill!"

Ye Hang nodded: "Mm, I'll try again."

The fourth batch of pill base, Ye Hang refined into medium-grade. With the last batch, Ye Hang actually managed to refine a high-grade Bone-Growing Pill.

Ye Yuan's eyes lit up when he saw the pill formed.

His father's alchemy talent was truly extraordinary; his comprehension ability was unmatched by ordinary grand alchemists.

Although Ye Yuan had guided him, using only five batches of pill base to refine a high-grade Bone-Growing Pill still greatly exceeded Ye Yuan's expectations.

He had originally estimated that his father could only refine medium-grade or even low-grade. Unexpectedly, Ye Hang had exceeded expectations.

Ye Yuan had never watched his father refine before and had no direct understanding of Ye Hang's alchemy skills. Now he realized that his father was only limited by his soul power, which was why Wan Donghai had always suppressed him.

Now, if he faced Wan Donghai again, Wan Donghai would definitely no longer be his father's match.

With the high-grade Bone-Growing Pill refined, Ye Yuan's tense nerves relaxed.

After all, third-tier ingredients were not as abundant as first- or second-tier ones, and could not be squandered endlessly.

Ye Yuan took the Bone-Growing Pill and gave it to Yuan Fei to consume.

"Thank you, Young Master!" Yuan Fei said weakly.

These days, he had been suffering from the torment of his injuries, but he did not complain to Ye Yuan, because he knew Ye Yuan was injured even more severely!

If Ye Yuan had not prepared healing pills in advance, he would probably be dead by now.

Ye Yuan smiled: "Why be so polite with me? If it weren't for you this time, I probably wouldn't have made it back. It's just that I'm not strong enough now, causing you to suffer."

"This injury is nothing; it actually makes me nostalgic for those glorious years. All these years of living comfortably at Red Ridge Peak might be why I've been stuck and unable to break through. But seeing Young Master's alchemy skills, I now feel very fortunate to follow you!" Yuan Fei said with emotion.

An alchemist guiding a grand alchemist in refining pills—this was truly mind-boggling.

Although Yuan Fei did not understand alchemy, he could tell that Ye Yuan's alchemy skills far surpassed his father's; they were not on the same level!

As long as Ye Yuan broke through to the Crystal Condensation Realm and became a grand alchemist, refining the Demon Crystal Pill would surely come naturally!

Although he did not know why Ye Yuan's alchemy skills were better than his father's, that was not important.

What mattered was that Ye Yuan could bring him great strength! Perhaps Yuan Fei might have hope of breaking through to a fourth-tier beast in his lifetime.

Ye Yuan knew what Yuan Fei was thinking and laughed: "Hehe, don't worry. Maybe in less than a year, I'll be able to refine the Demon Crystal Pill. For now, focus on refining the medicinal power and recovering your strength. In two days, I'll need your help."

Yuan Fei nodded without a word and began circulating his primal power to refine the medicinal power.

Ye Yuan stopped paying attention to Yuan Fei and waved his hand, summoning a "little kitten" out of thin air—it was White Light.

But White Light was sleeping soundly and could not be woken up no matter what. This had been going on for two days, and Ye Yuan found it inexplicable.

These two days, Ye Yuan had refined many pills, and naturally he did not forget to refine pills for White Light.

White Light was only a first-tier beast, so this was naturally no problem for Ye Yuan.

Moreover, first-tier materials were abundant, so Ye Yuan refined over a thousand pills in one go, planning to use them slowly for White Light.

But when Ye Yuan released White Light, the little guy's eyes lit up at the sight of the pills, and it swallowed all thousand pills in one go, leaving Ye Yuan dumbfounded.

Even he himself would not dare to swallow pills like that! Was this little thing trying to kill itself?

Startled, Ye Yuan was about to make White Light spit out the pills when the little guy burped, tilted its body, and fell asleep.

At first, Ye Yuan thought White Light had died from overeating and quickly checked on it.

Upon inspection, Ye Yuan was amazed—the little guy's breathing was steady; it was just asleep. He finally relaxed.

However, it had been asleep for two days, with no sign of waking.

Although Ye Yuan had studied beasts extensively, he had never seen such a situation, so he could only check on White Light's condition from time to time.

Ye Yuan checked White Light again and found that it still showed no signs of waking, sleeping deeply and unresponsive.

But Ye Yuan noticed that White Light's aura had grown much stronger—it had actually broken through!

Originally, White Light was only at the early first-tier, but after two days of sleep, it had quietly broken through to the mid first-tier.

Could it be that this little guy automatically refined the pills and broke through while sleeping? This... was too easy, wasn't it?

Ye Yuan grew increasingly curious about White Light's origins.

Now it seemed that White Light was probably not an ordinary Flowing Light White Tiger.

Ye Yuan had never heard of a Flowing Light White Tiger having the innate divine ability of treasure hunting, nor had he heard of one evolving like this.

Yet, White Light's characteristics were clearly those of a Flowing Light White Tiger.

Why was this? Ye Yuan was utterly baffled.

It seemed he would have to wait until it awakened its inherited memories to understand what was happening to White Light.

Unable to figure it out, Ye Yuan simply stopped thinking about it. He put White Light away and sat down to cultivate with Ye Hang, waiting for Yuan Fei to heal.

A night passed in the blink of an eye. Yuan Fei suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.

"Young Master, I am healed!"
