"Elder?" Lin Yao was puzzled by Elder Yi Potian's reaction and couldn't help but wave his hand in front of him to see if the other was really stunned.
"Hmm, ah!" Elder Yi Potian was suddenly startled and immediately asked, "Sir, can you start refining pills again?"
"Yes, that's enough, so let's have our fill!"
A cold glint flashed in Lin Yao's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Make sure all the disciples who have not yet undergone the witch power transformation are prepared. This time, the transformation will be unified, and those who have already undergone it will be strengthened. At least this will make everyone more resistant to Jiang Liu's bacteria and viruses."
"By the way, Elder, I'd also like to trouble you to prepare more ingredients for the 'Antidote Pill'. You can never have too much of this kind of pill."
Lin Yao sighed, thinking to himself that sometimes the cheapest and most neglected medicine is the life-saving medicine, and nothing should be ignored.
"Yes, sir." Elder Yi Potian immediately agreed, his mouth almost splitting into a wide grin. "Sir, is it possible to refine that 'Creation Pill'? Many people have reached their bottlenecks in three years. Although self-cultivation is more solid, Jiang Liu won't give us that time, so..."
"this……"
Lin Yao looked at Elder Yi Potian with some difficulty and replied embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Elder, we can't produce the 'Creation Pill' for the time being. Maybe we can produce a little bit in the future, but it's hard to guarantee the quantity."
The thought of the cauldron being 2.3 meters tall and 1.5 meters in diameter, a massive object that would be difficult to carry, caused Lin Yao considerable distress. The pseudo-elixir fire, now consumed by lightning, could not be used for alchemy without the cauldron, rendering the alchemy furnace useless. But how could he possibly carry such a large cauldron around the world searching for "Tai Sui"?
If we don't carry the large cauldron with us, are we supposed to find a "Tai Sui" (a powerful deity) and then arrange for it to be transported back to Beijing, where we can secretly practice alchemy in a basement?
No matter how you look at it, it's an extremely inefficient and attention-grabbing plan, so Lin Yao had no choice but to temporarily abandon the idea and focus all his energy on fighting "Morning Mist". He planned to find time to refine some "Creation Pills" in the future, and with the support of the powerful medical pill conversion efficiency, perhaps he could refine the "Grand Duke Jupiter" on the summit of Mount Heng with the help of the "Creation Pills". That guy is a good thing, and Lin Yao was sure of it without Xiao Cao reminding him.
"Sir, could you please provide more 'human nuclear energy' to save the lives of the younger generation?" Elder Yi Potian continued to make the request. "I am worried that those 'poisonous people' will target the Yi family, and some of the younger and weaker members will be killed."
To withstand a bullet head-on requires Triple-level nuclear force. Even after training, disciples who have learned to dodge and use situations to avoid attacks from firearms need at least Level 2 nuclear force. Moreover, the more of this, the better, because the adaptive training alone consumes a lot of it, which is beyond what Lin Yao can afford after symbolically equipping the Yi family disciples.
"Elder, like the 'Creation Pill,' we can't provide this for the time being."
Lin Yao shook his head, thinking to himself that this was even more precious than the "Creation Pill." The "Creation Pill" could be made from any "Tai Sui" that was a little older, but the "Year-Round Pill" and "Year-Round Pill" that could create "human core power" could only be made from "Tai Sui" that was more than 3,333 years old.
Moreover, who knows what kind of trouble will arise after finding a suitable "Tai Sui" and then using the cauldron to refine it? In any case, Lin Yao was already feeling uneasy about refining the "White Cloud Pill" this time, wondering what kind of things the combination of the cauldron and lightning would produce.
Little Grass remained quiet, as she was busy testing the newly refined "White Cloud Pill." Her target, of course, was Lin Yao, a living, breathing human. Even though Lin Yao's body had improved due to her witchcraft and advancement, she could still use him as a test subject. This was because many experiments only required targeting specific tissues, something Little Grass excelled at.
The giant cauldron surprised both Lin Yao and Xiao Cao. Even their observation from above seemed unreal, as the state of the pills inside the cauldron had changed significantly. The pills that were the size of sesame seeds that spewed out had returned to their normal size, and the total number far exceeded Xiao Cao's estimation. All of this indicated that the cauldron's internal space was unique, as if it were a space created on its own. Its proportions and permeability had little to do with the real world, causing Xiao Cao to exclaim repeatedly that she had found a treasure.
Since the internal space can change size, the external shape can perhaps be as flexible in size as described in novels. However, Lin Yao and Xiao Cao have been struggling to find a way to control it.
Starting with the information transmitted from the cauldron to Lin Yao's mind? Who knows which planet's script it is? The chanting, which resembled Sanskrit, couldn't be translated at all. Even when Lin Yao tried to imitate it for Xiao Cao, it was still the same. The two of them were completely illiterate in the face of the information from the cauldron.
Therefore, Lin Yao planned to start with the transformation of witch power and ordinary pills. On the one hand, he wanted to make full preparations to deal with the possible attack by "Morning Mist". On the other hand, he also wanted to prove himself and make those who decided to give up on him admit their mistakes and regret it. At least he could vent his anger.
Now that Lin Yao has reached his level, there's really nothing that can truly capture his attention. So, his occasional whimsical antics are fully supported by Xiao Cao, who even encourages him to do them. Of course, matters between men and women remain quite mysterious and alluring to Lin Yao.
The elder remained silent, so Lin Yao could only comfort him, saying, "Actually, as long as there are enough medicinal herbs, I can refine more 'Dragon Tiger Pills' and 'Heavenly Fragrance Bone-Regenerating Pills' for you. If you don't use them all, you can store them to give your family some savings."
Lin Yao's words immediately made Elder Yi Potian's eyes flash repeatedly. This was also the first time Lin Yao had openly agreed to the Yi family storing his pills as strategic materials and family heirlooms.
With Lin Yao's words, as long as the Yi family obtains enough medicinal herbs, and Lin Yao fulfills his promise, the Yi family's strength and status for the next few hundred years will be guaranteed. This is a major event that will benefit future generations. No wonder the First Elder, Yi Potian, ended up staring at Lin Yao with his mouth agape, speechless, like a patient with Alzheimer's disease.
"gentlemen……"
Just as Yi Potian suppressed his excitement and swallowed hard to express his gratitude, Lin Yao interrupted him, "Elder, stop talking nonsense. Also, contact Elder Sun Woxing of the Sun family. As long as they are willing to reveal the 'Cloud Dragon Skill' technique, I will definitely help him find a way to improve the strength of the Sun family members. At least we can find some solutions to the problem of the gap between the peak and the highest level of the Earth Realm."
"By the way, regardless of whether they are willing to cooperate or not, we can help the Sun family members refine their bodies with witchcraft. Let them send people over. After all, they have helped our Yi family for so many years, we can't treat them unfairly."
Lin Yao paused, then lowered his voice, "If Jiang Liu really decides to act recklessly, who knows how many people on this land will survive. Let's repay those who helped us first, so they have more resources to defend themselves."
Lin Yao's words clearly referred to Jiang Liu using a virus similar to, or even more powerful than, the one that caused the Yanji outbreak to harm his compatriots. If that were the case, a delayed response, coupled with factors such as geographical location, population movement, climate, and even the migratory behavior of birds, could prevent the country and Lin Yao himself from responding in time. Therefore, pessimistic views had long been deeply ingrained in the minds of Lin Yao and all the Yi family members. However, they possessed an "antidote pill," so they did not need to be too nervous. But regarding this future threat, the entire Yi family was working tirelessly to coordinate and unite with all the ancient martial arts families and military and political figures they could contact to prepare for contingencies.
"Sir, what about the Pei family?" Elder Yi Potian hesitated, his eyes fixed on Lin Yao.
"Of course we should help them. At the very least, we should help them refine their bodies with witchcraft. I've estimated that it's definitely no problem to set up another division in each military region. Of course, this also includes the scions of aristocratic families who consume the most witchcraft. Let's notify them to come. At least the division under my uncle's command in the Shenyang Military Region will have to be helped. Then, we'll also allocate half of the extra troops to the Pei family. That's about what I can handle."
The scope of Lin Yao's abilities included the plans and schedules that Xiao Cao had meticulously prepared for him. Since he couldn't move while refining pills, he could only stay in the basement of his villa in Beijing. In any case, he needed to prepare a large number of pills. The free witch power that had been gathered along with them could be collected and stored by Xiao Cao in the leaf pulp of the cactus. Then, it could be used to produce some "witch people" to resist the "poison people" refined by "Morning Mist" in the future. It could be considered that Xiao Cao, who was idle while Lin Yao was refining pills, was making a contribution.
Lin Yao's opinion was quickly relayed and implemented. General Xia, who would go out early in the morning to show off to old friends, also heard about this matter. He immediately made a phone call to his son, General Xia Luobing, who had just returned to Chengdu, to bring him back to the capital. The purpose, of course, was to secure a spot for the Chengdu Military Region to enhance its strength.
Although the Chengdu Military Region already possessed a force of 10,000 "super gene warriors," no one would complain about its strength. General Xia Luobing was naturally enthusiastic about improving the military region's strength through a safe method provided by the most trustworthy person. He immediately appeared in the "urban forest" as the father-in-law. Lin Yao readily agreed to the condition of cultivating an iron army for the Chengdu Military Region. He also gave his father-in-law some advice, suggesting that the entire iron army be organized in the same area as the "super gene warriors" so that they could restrain each other and prevent gossip from colleagues in the military headquarters and other places.
"Kid, actually, that old codger Yue Taiqun can't be considered a bad person, otherwise he wouldn't have been promoted to the rank of general. Many years ago, General Yue devoted too much effort to the construction of the country's army, and he almost sacrificed himself many times, but he survived."
With his son, General Xia Luobing, present, General Xia planned to emphasize the importance of military relations to Lin Yao once again, hoping to make his son and grandson-in-law understand the situation and stand on the same side so that family members would not turn against each other.
"General Yue's change occurred after his first son died and his second son was born, which is when that little bastard Yue Bufan was born. General Yue changed his mindset and gradually transformed from a hard-working soldier who obeyed orders to a scheming person who built factions."
"His view is that the military is supreme, and everything should give way to the military. Only when the military is strong can the whole country become strong. Therefore, he believes that the fundamental solution to problems is to use force. He disapproves of the procrastinating and indecisive tactics of politicians on sensitive issues such as the Diaoyu Islands. He even advocates the use of force to retake Taiwan."
General Xia paused slightly, picked up the tea that Lin Yao had specially added with an unknown pill, took a leisurely sip, and then continued, "Kid, this is the biggest difference between your grandpa and that old man. It's just that my position is not as high as his, and I am not as good at scheming as him. I usually offend more people than him, so I have always been somewhat passive, but I have always been fighting him to the death."
At this point, General Xia smiled, as if looking at his beloved grandson. He then glanced at his son beside him and said, "Now it's all good. Now I have your help. You must hold on. Peace and stability are hard to come by, and everyone should cherish them. We must not let problems that can be resolved peacefully escalate into armed conflict. Even if it means you have to save a few people you don't like, you are not allowed to disagree!"
Lin Yao looked up, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word. Looking at General Xia's weathered face, he was filled with mixed emotions and couldn't bring himself to refuse.
