Chapter 99: Soul Realm, Taking the Holy Soul Pill!

  "Ding, detected that the host has grahe Sed Disciple Xiao Yi Xian a Five-Star Magic Core Soft Armor, Profound Ice Spirit Armor. gratutions to the host fering a ten-thousand-fold return and obtaining ah-Rank Magic Core Soft Armor, the Profound Ice Holy Armor."

  "The Profound Ice Holy Armor has been deposited in the system space. Please check it, host."

  Gu He, who was meditating, heard the system notification in his mind, but before he could react, two more system notifications sounded in succession.

  "Ding, detected that the host has grahe Sed Disciple Xiao Yi Xian a Frade Peak Pill, the Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill. gratutions to the host fering a ten-thousand-fold return and obtaining a Seventh-Grade Pill, the Dou Zong Pill."

  "The Seventh-Grade Pill, the Dou Zong Pill, has been deposited in the system space. Please check it, host."

  "Ding, detected that the host has grahe Sed Disciple Xiao Yi Xian a Fifth-Grade Peak Pill, the Queng Soul Pill. gratutions to the host fering a ten-thousand-fold return and obtaining ah-Grade Pill, the Holy Soul Pill."

  "The Eighth-Grade Pill, the Holy Soul Pill, has been deposited in the system space. Please check it, host."

  After hearing the system notifications in his mind, Gu He was slightly fused for a moment. However, he quickly uood.

  It seemed that Xiao Yi Xian had already broken through to the Eighth Star Dou Master and cimed the rewards he had left for her.

  A hint of joy fshed in Gu He's eyes. inally, he had left the rewards at Yu just as an experiment. He wao see if the system return meism would activate without personally granting the rewards to his disciple. Now it seemed that this method was effective.

  Gu He was satisfied with this result. After all, he couldn't stay at Yu forever, nor could he always be by his disciples' side. The discovery by the system would give him more freedom in his future as.

  The only downside was the Transmission of Teiques ceremony, which required his physical preseer the system return meism. This time, his absence meant missing an opportunity for the ceremony.

  If he were at Yu right now, he could personally duct the Transmission of Teiques for Xiao Yi Xian, and he believed it could help her advao the third or fourth star Dou Master realm. However, such situations were unavoidable, and Gu He could only minimize his losses and make the most of the monthly system return opportunities.

  After realizing this, Gu He calmed his thoughts and directed his sciousness into the system space.

  Onside, his gaze fell on three items floating in the void.

  One was a soft armor radiating a brilliant blue light.

  The other two were delicate jade bottles.

  Gu He's gaze first nded on the blue soft armor. "Is this the Profound Ice Holy Armor?" he murmured.

  He immediately anded, "System, extract the Profound Ice Holy Armor!"

  As he spoke, the blue soft armor in the void trembled slightly and then transformed into a blue light that shot tu He. When the light dissipated, he found himself wearing the blue armor underh his clothes.

  With a thought, Gu He infused his Dou Qi into the Profound Ice Holy Armor. In an instant, a brilliant blue light burst forth, illuminating the entire system space. A dense aremely cold power of Profound Ice suddenly surged and densed into a Profound Ice armor that covered his entire body.

  Running his hand over the Profound Ice armu He felt an intense chill rushing to his heart. During the moment wheracted the Profound Ice Holy Armor, information about it had already flooded his mind.

  The Profound Ice Holy Armor was ah-Rank Magic Core Soft Armor, embedded with several Eighth-Rank Magic Cores.

  With this armu He was fident that no one in the Dou Master realm could harm him. Even attacks from Dou Zong experts would be somewhat resistible. This was sidering his current cultivation level, which was limited to the Dou Master realm. Once he broke through to the Dou Zong realm, he could fully unleash the power of the Profound Ice Holy Armor. At that time, he would be able to withstand eveacks of a Dou Zong expert without much harm.

  "What a great treasure!"

  With a sigh of admiration in his heart, Gu He retracted his Dou Qi.

  As the Dou Qi was withdrawn, the Profound Ice Holy Armor reverted to its inal state, transf bato a blue soft armor that adhered to Gu He's body.

  , Gu He directed his gaze towards the two delicate jade bottles in the void.

  With a thought, he drew one of the jade bottles to his hand.

  As the jade bottle was in his hand, Gu He instantly received information about the treasure within.

  The Dou Aor Pill, a Seventh-Grade pill that, when ed at the Dou Aor realm, could boost one's cultivation by oar; the sed pill would have no effect.

  It was actually a cultivation-enhang pill!

  After reading the information about the Ten Thousand Dou Aor Pill, Gu He's eyes brightened.

  This time, he had missed the opportunity to perform the Transmission of Teiques ceremony for Xiao Yi Xian. He felt a bit regretful.

  However, this Dou Aor Pill would perfectly pensate for his loss. He had already reached the Sed-Star Dou Aor realm, and with this pill, he would advao the Third-Star Dou Aor realm.

  Normally, such pills that forcibly enhane's cultivation by oar were most suitable to be taken when one entered a bottleer in their cultivation. Dou Aor Pills were typically used by high-level Dou Aors who were stu a bottlened couldn't break through.

  The reason was that Dou Aor Pills only had an effect upon first ption.

  However, this wasn't a fu He. With the disciple-granting system at his disposal, he never cked resources for cultivation. Whenever an opportunity to increase his strength preseself, he never hesitated.

  After stowing away the Dou Aor Pill in his ste ring, Gu He turned his attention to the remaining jade bottle.

  Reag out, he sucked the jade bottle directly into his palm, and information about its tents instantly flooded into his mind.

  The Holy Soul Pill, ah-Grade pill that could signifitly enhahe strength of one's soul. It could only be ed by practitioners below the Dou Aor realm; otherwise, it would tear their soul apart, causih.

  After reading the information about the Holy Soul Pill, Gu He's eyes lit up.

  It turned out to be a pill that enhahe strength of the soul, and it was ah-Grade pill. Moreover, it required the strength of a Dou Aor realm practitioo qualify for ption.

  "It's truly a high-quality pill!" Gu He couldn't help but admire.

  As an alchemist, the most important thing was to enhahe strength of the soul. Although he had reached the Seventh-Grade Alchemist realm, his foundation was still retively shallow, allowing him to barely refine some low-level Seventh-Grade pills.

  However, if he ed this Holy Soul Pill, his soul's strength would increase signifitly, taking him to the peak of the Ordinary realm.

  The power of ah-Grade pill was more than enough to achieve this.

  Gu He was aware of the mysteries surrounding soul strength, which were not uood by most people. He possessed knowledge from the inal alchemist and the memories ied from the Ninth-Grade Alchemist. He knew a thing or two about the secrets of soul strength.

  On the ti of Dou Qi, soul strength had no level difference, but it was divided into realms: Ordinary, Spirit, Heaven, and Emperor.

  Most people, even alchemists of Seventh Grade or lower, had their soul strength at the Ordinary realm. The difference y irength of their souls.

  As for the reason why many alchemists remai the Seventh Grade, it recisely because of this realm of the soul. In the ti of Dou Qi, soul strength had four levels: Ordinary, Spirit, Heaven, and Emperor.

  Most people, even alchemists of Eighth Grade or lower, remai the Ordinary realm, with varying degrees of soul strength.

  Of course, Gu He, as he was now, naturally beloo the Ordinary realm.

  But pared to ordinary people, his soul strength was much stronger.

  Some Seventh-Grade alchemists, with fortuitous enters, might touch upon the Spirit realm. Oheir soul strength reached this realm, they would gain a special ability: to endow pills with spiritual attributes.

  Having ied the knowledge of the Ninth-Grade Alchemist, Gu He khat Eighth-Grade pills were mostly those with extraordinary spirituality. It recisely because of this spirituality that they could reach the Eighth-Grade level.

  on alchemists, regardless of their alchemical skills, couldn't refih-Grade pills. If they couldn't impart spiritual attributes to pills, then those pills could never reach the Eighth-Grade level.

  A Heaven realm soul was enough to refine Ninth-Grade pills.

  Ninth-Grade pills were almost like living beings. If a soul's strength reached this level, it was akin to creating a se being. To achieve this, the soul needed spirituality, as well as the power of heaven ah. To reach this level, the soul's strength had to be at the Heaven realm.

  This level was rare on the ti of Dou Qi.

  As for an Emperor realm soul, it was almost legendary.

  Reag this realm was required to refihe legendary Emperrade pills. Emperrade pills were closely reted to the legendary Dou Emperor. However, few had ever reached this level.

  Looking at the jade bottle taining the Holy Soul Pill in his hand, Gu He's eyes revealed a hint of excitement.

  Although he didn't know how close or far he was from reag the Spirit realm in terms of soul strength, he was sure there was still a siderable gap.

  If he ed this Holy Soul Pill, it would greatly reduce that gap and possibly evee his soul strength to the peak of the Ordinary realm.

  The power of ah-Grade pill was suffit to achieve this.

  Afterward, Gu He gradually withdrew his sciousness from the system space.

  Returning to his body, he g Yun Yun, who eacefully asleep.

  If he used the Dou Aor Pill to break through, the otion would be too great, and it might disturb her. After some thought, Gu He decided to take the Holy Soul Pill first.

  With a thought, a jade bottle appeared in Gu He's hand, taining the Holy Soul Pill.

  Upon removing the bottle cap, a strong medial fragrance wafted out.

  Gu He held the jade bottle, tilting it slightly, revealing a thumb-sized dark red pill. The entire pill was dark red, smooth, and what astonished Gu He the most was the faint mist that surrouhe pill.

  This mist seemed to possess its own sciousness, occasionally densing into various shapes, h around the pill, giving it araordinarily mystical appearance.
