Should he give up?
Qin Chuan shook his head. Even if he had to give up, he couldn't do it now. He could sense the movements outside. If things got really bad, he would give up on the day the mutated seven-headed demonic dragon serpent weakened.
There was no other way now; this was the worst-case scenario. But he couldn't give up now, because giving up now would mean all his previous efforts were wasted, and there would be no hope left.
The refining began. Qin Chuan cleared his mind of distractions and immersed himself completely in the process, meticulously and methodically starting.
Before he knew it, a day had passed, then two.
After two days, Qin Chuan had almost given up hope. At first, his speed was like a snail's pace, but after two days, even the snail's speed felt incredibly fast…
Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do but persevere. He couldn't give up halfway.
On the third day, his speed actually improved slightly, returning to the snail's pace. However, after experiencing a much slower pace than a snail this time, he felt that even a snail was quite fast.
After a day of this, on the fourth day, to Qin Chuan's surprise, his speed had increased dramatically. Before, it was the speed of a snail; now it was the speed of a tortoise.
Tortoises are slow, but when they get going, they're much, much faster than me, and this is the speed of a large tortoise.
On the fifth day, the speed changed dramatically, becoming as fast as a wild rabbit, making Qin Chuan feel like he was flying.
This sudden change gave Qin Chuan renewed confidence; perhaps he could succeed, perhaps he could succeed.
In short, Qin Chuan had high expectations for the Yin-Yang Dragon-Snake Pill. The benefits of this pill were unparalleled. All things are divided into Yin and Yang; improving Yin and Yang is everything.
It's not just about improving Yin and Yang, but more importantly, about achieving a perfect fusion of Yin and Yang, which would allow him to unleash his power to a terrifying level.
On the sixth day, the speed was like that of a flying bird, exceeding Qin Chuan's imagination. At the beginning, this speed would have easily allowed him to refine it within seven days.
But now, at this speed, he definitely couldn't succeed in seven days, although delaying it for a few days would still be possible, provided the speed didn't slow down further.
Another day passed; today was the seventh day. The progress was astonishing, unstoppable, and dazzlingly fast.
In just half a day, the refining was complete, a success! When the crisp sound rang out, indicating the pills were successfully refined, he stood there
, motionless. It was only noon on the seventh day, yet it was already over. Success! A pleasant surprise, an immense surprise! After all, for the previous two, even five days, Qin Chuan hadn't even considered the possibility of success. He had persevered through sheer grit and determination, and unexpectedly, he had succeeded.
This was truly an unexpected joy. Sometimes, persistence pays off, and the result can be better than imagined.
This was the most dramatic and tumultuous pill-refining experience Qin Chuan had ever had. At other times, even if it was slow, he could slowly wear it down until his energy couldn't withstand it anymore.
This time, the main issue was the mutated seven-headed demonic dragon snake, so he didn't have enough time. Fortunately, he ultimately succeeded, and within the initially planned timeframe.
He opened the Chaos Furnace: three pills!
Not few, but definitely not many either. However, this is generally the rule: the better the pill, the fewer the quantity. If it weren't for Qin Chuan's exceptional abilities, someone else, even if they succeeded, would probably only have one.
After putting away the medicine, Qin Chuan found Yu Qing waiting for him not far away. As soon as he came out, Yu Qing saw him, a relieved smile spreading across her face.
Qin Chuan instantly appeared beside Yu Qing and hugged her. "You missed me so much?"
"You vain little thing, did it go smoothly?" Yu Qing playfully scolded, seeing Qin Chuan's expression, she was pretty sure the refining was successful.
"Yeah, it's alright, I missed you so much!" Qin Chuan smiled at Yu Qing.
Yu Qing blushed, giving him a slightly reproachful look, her allure captivating Qin Chuan, who then leaned in and kissed her.
However, it was short-lived, only a brief moment. This was their first real kiss. Qin Chuan was alright, but also very excited, having been without a woman for a long time. Yu Qing, on the other hand, was more flustered.
Her tense body remained motionless until Qin Chuan released her, then she blushed deeply, lowering her head and nestling in his arms.
"Shy!" Qin Chuan said with a smile in her ear.
Yu Qing didn't say anything, just nestled in his arms.
The usually aloof and ethereal woman was now like a little girl, a shy and adorable one, which amused Qin Chuan and filled him with an indescribable warmth.
The two nestled together, whispering sweet nothings, Qin Chuan doing most of the talking, though some of the more mushy remarks elicited playful complaints from Yu Qing, which Qin Chuan thoroughly enjoyed.
It's said that beautiful women are most attractive when they're coquettish and charming, the more beautiful they are, the more alluring and captivating they become.
In the afternoon, after greeting Tai Hou, Qin Chuan entered the formation and consumed the Yin-Yang Dragon-Snake Pill.
The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, transforming into a cool yet warm current that exploded through his body, circulating through his limbs and meridians, regulating and strengthening Yin and Yang, stabilizing the body's balance.
The effects were unimaginably good; moreover, it seemed to have a special restorative effect on his body, with Yin and Yang constantly rising, sublimating, and breaking through.
His strength realm had broken through!
His strength realm had broken through! Qin Chuan was incredibly surprised
.
The benefits of the Yin-Yang Dragon-Snake Pill were unimaginable; it had allowed him to break through several minor realms consecutively without facing any life-or-death tribulations.
Finally, it stopped at the Perfect Immortal Emperor realm.
After a while, he came to his senses. This advancement was both expected and unexpected.
He felt he should improve significantly and had even considered reaching the Perfect Immortal Emperor realm, but the chances were slim. Now, he had truly achieved it.
The advancement gave Qin Chuan a feeling of being reborn. Many of his abilities could unleash terrifying power. Furthermore
, the advancement in realm changed his perspective and outlook. In addition, his mental state was also incredibly important, far surpassing any increase in strength. This required certain coincidences and was based on a probability that only occurred on the foundation of increased strength.
Changes in mental state all required coincidences; this was a form of growth, manifesting as maturity in ordinary people.
Less than half a day later, after emerging, Qin Chuan gave one to Yu Qing.
Yu Qing didn't refuse and smiled as he walked into the formation.
There was one more pill. After thinking for a moment, he gave it to Taihou. Meeting was fate, and besides, a great battle was coming soon. Taihou's improvement would be a guarantee.
Taihou was also stunned when he received the pill from Qin Chuan. He already knew how precious this pill was. It was the Yin-Yang Dragon-Snake Pill, and Taihou had dragon blood, so he naturally knew best how precious this pill was.
