After spending 40 units of divine energy on getting what he needed, Albion expended 10-thousand units of spiritual energy to construct up a big Rank-1 Spirit Gathering Formation that covered his hilltop mansion.
In the air above the mansion, his spiritual energy ford thread-like lines before they weaved together into a complex formation circle that could be compared to a highly-detailed magic circle.
Shortly after, the formation circle descended and disappeared into the ground beneath the hilltop mansion; thus, marking the completion of the Rank-1 Spirit Gathering Formation setup.
In that instance, the breeze in the area beca stronger as the Spirit Gathering Formation slowly but steadily pulled the faint spiritual energy hidden in the surrounding atmosphere towards the hilltop mansion.
"Spirit Gathering Formation, completed. Ti for the next step in my plans," Albion uttered.
He took so spirit herbs from the Ashura Ring and began planting them around the mansion to receive nourishnts from the spiritual energy in the area.
After half an hour quickly flew by, Albion completed planting his spirit herbs, transforming the grass field around the mansion into a colorful herbal garden.
Nevertheless, the spirit herbs planted were only a tiny portion of what he collected in the Arntia Rainforest prior to arriving in the elf tribe.
"The preparation took a bit longer than I thought, but it's finally. Now, I can start with the pill refinent," Albion muttered to himself.
Albion took out a big pill cauldron the size of four refrigerators and preheated it with black flas before preparing the ingredients for refinent in batches.
Once everything was in order, Albion proceeded with his mass pill refinent.
Starting with the simplest pill to refine, Albion refined the Body Enhancent Pill, Vigorous Innate Pill, and Spirit Refinent Pill, respectively.
Each pill allowed a simple advancent of a single stage within the respective cultivation realm of Initiate, Innate, and Spirit Refinent.
Due to the demand and consumption of his ntal strength, Albion could only refine two dozen pills per batch.
'If my soul isn't weak, I would have pushed for hundreds of pills per batch of refinent and save so ti,' Albion mulled.
Nevertheless, there was nothing he could do about it.
Once he is done handing over the cultivation pills to his subordinates to manage and raise their cultivations, he will be entering secluded cultivation.

Night gradually arrived, and darkness blanketed the skies of Silvercove city.
The ti of Blackthorne Group's eting was closing, and the group's core mbers arrived at the headquarters' conference room one by one, each having the power to shake the lives of ordinary people within Silvercove city.
Maverick Cohen and the original core mbers from the three underworld gangs made their first appearance, followed by Young Master Gavino and the other young masters of the top 8 families of Silvercove city.
They were not only representatives of their own families, but they were also core mbers of the Blackthorne Group.
Without their assistance, Maverick Cohen would not have united the various powers of Silvercove city under the Blackthorne Group's banner so quickly.
Klein Seymour of the Seymour family arrived with his father and elder daughter not long after, followed by the Xiao family's two daughters, Xiao Hua and Xiao Qing, and their father, Xiao Pipi.
Direct family mbers or elite bodyguards, each core mber brought along two people to the eting before taking their designated seats around the conference table.
Once everyone filled their seats, Xiao Hua impatiently spoke, "Since everyone is present, let us begin the eting at once. I still want to watch my drama."
Her words imdiately broke the tense and solemn atmosphere.
Maverick Cohen's lips twitched while several mbers smiled wryly at Xiao Hua's blatant attitude at an important eting, but no one dared to admonish her.
Thanks to her supposedly close relationship with the Dark Lord and her mischievous nature, Xiao Hua had earned herself a nickna within the Blackthorne Group; Little Princess.
Of course, this was what everyone calls her on the surface.
Behind her backs, the core mbers all regarded her as a little nace due to her tendency to pull pranks and tease mbers of the group, disrupting the solemn air of the headquarters, and turning it into a kid's playground.
"Not yet," Maverick Cohen rejected Xiao Hua's suggestion before stating, "We are still waiting for one more person."
"Who?" Xiao Hua knitted her brows.
Not to ntion her, several other core mbers also showed a confused as they glanced around the conference table.
"Everyone seems to be present, no? Who else could we be waiting on?" Young Master Godfrey of the Newman family wondered.
"You'll see."
Reagen Declan, ng Yan, Ah Zhen, and the others all revealed knowing smiles.
They couldn't wait to see the surprised looks on the clueless mbers' faces when the person showed up.
…
However, the group waited half an hour without the person showing up.
"Are you sure soone's coming? We've already waited for half an hour!" Xiao Hua stated impatiently.
Reagan Declan turned to Maverick Cohen and asked, "Did you forget to ntion the ti and place to the person, instructor?"
"This is strange…" Maverick Cohen furrowed his brows before mumbling, "I'm pretty sure I've sent it. I've even received confirmation that the person was coming."
"Just who exactly are we waiting on?" another mber asked.

anwhile, Albion completed his 30th batch of pill refinent before taking out the two dozen freshly-refined pills and storing them into pill bottles.
25 proficiency in alchemy
7 proficiency in fire control technique
13 proficiency in pill refining technique
Ding!
"All that for a minor improvent. Well, it's better than nothing," Albion muttered before checking his inventory.
He had refined a total of 720 pills in the past few hours.
"With this many pills, I should be able to raise quite a few capable subordinates," Albion smiled, feeling satisfied with his work, before he suddenly thought, "But I seem to have forgotten sothing again."
"Whatever, it's probably not important…" was what he said after until he suddenly received a sudden call.
