Chapter 112 - Heavenly Absorption Pills
Bai Rouyun took a deep breath and calmed herself. She knew that she had to empty her mind when she began refining medicine completely; she had to put her entire focus on the ingredients and the purification of the energy within.
Xiao Jin had turned into a cauldron, but Bai Rouyun could sense her support. As she ignited the spiritual flame, she began refining the ingredients one after another, keeping each pool of herbal liquid in each corner of the cauldron, separated from one another, while she was refining and purifying the next.
Eventually, after they all had finished this procedure, she began slowly urging the pools of liquid to merge together.
This was the most challenging part of refining pills. Having to merge the purified energy was difficult as each medicine had a different amount of energy, and different nature, so they could repel each other, or they could try to merge faster.
No matter whether the energies were repelling or attracting one another, they had to be controlled with a firm hand, and Bai Rouyun felt how sweat began beading on her forehead as she was merging the many medicinal liquids.
Her entire focus was infused in her spiritual energy, as she observed what was happening inside the cauldron, and using all her mind to merge the liquids.
This process was neither long nor short, but because of it requiring all her attention, it was strenuous, and when she finally completed it, she let out a sigh of relief.
Inside the cauldron was now a large ball of liquid in a strange green lustrous color.
She only had to divide the liquid into individual pills, and then solidify them.
This process was relatively easy, and she managed to do it without much difficulty. She found that it only took her a moment to divide it, and then she quickly made them into pills.
After finishing all the procedures, she had managed to create a full eleven Heaven Absorbing Pills. These pills all resembled jade as they lay in the warm cauldron, and she happily picked them up. They were made from an ancient pill formula, so she knew that the pills were pure and useful.
She quickly tidied up, and the cauldron was quickly enveloped by golden light before Xiao Jin appeared again.
She looked slightly exhausted, her eyes squinting, and her hand covering her mouth as she yawned.
"Take a rest," Bai Rouyun said as she ruffled the little girl’s hair. "eat some of the herbs to regain your energy. I am going to leave the Primal Chaos Dimension now."
Xiao Jin nodded her head, and she looked happy when she saw that Xiao Bao appeared next to her with an embrace full of the most delicious herbs they had harvested.
Both of the two treasures were originally quite indignant about the way Bai Rouyun had contracted them, but their indignation had vanished and was replaced by happiness.
Not only did she treat them like living beings, but she also had nothing against using her herbs to feed them. Although Xiao Bao had been loyal to his many masters previously, most of them had treated him like an object, and never once would they have been so happy to allow him to consume the herbs as he pleased.
Knowing that Bai Rouyun was treating them this well, they both felt a wave of happiness in their hearts.
Bai Rouyun was unaware that her actions had caused the two treasures to value her so much, and if she were aware, she would have been distressed.

Although they were treasures, they were still living spirits. They were not tools for people to use; they too deserved to be loved and find their place in the world where they belonged.
As Bai Rouyun left the Primal Chaos Dimension, she held the eleven pills in her hands.
She did not plan on eating all eleven right after one another. Although they would be able to tremendously increase her cultivation base, she had already once experienced the drawbacks of having an unstable foundation, so she was going to do her utmost to make it as solid as possible.
It was okay to use pills occasionally, but to depend on them was simply unacceptable.
Even so, she found a jade vial, placed the small round pills within, only keeping one in her palm.
There was still a slight warmth on the pill as she held it in her hand. She quickly placed the vial in her qiankun bag before sitting down on her bed with her legs crossed. She prepared to cultivate and placed the Heavenly Absorbtion Pill within her mouth.
As soon as it came into contact with her tongue, it turned to a stream of energy, which quickly spread through her body. She felt how every pore in her being was opened, and a strange suction force began to draw in all the Heaven and Earth Essence in the surroundings.
Although the absorption rate was much swifter than usual, she knew that it was not only benefits but also a risk.
If she did not manage to refine all the essence to Qi and did not manage to refine it at an expected quality, then she would end up with impurities in her Qi, which again would turn into instability.
Because of this, she was entirely focused as she began rotating the Heaven and Earth Essence through her meridians, according to the Primal Chaos Cultivation Technique.
This method was much more impressive than what she had initially expected. It was capable of purifying much more essence than she had thought. The purification was at the highest grade.
