Ye Ming naturally had no idea about the little thoughts Lin ngdie was having.
He smiled faintly and said, "Thank you!"
As the night grew deeper, after exchanging a few simple words, Ye Ming stopped conversing with her and assud a cross-legged position to enter into a ditative state.
Lin ngdie didn’t feel bored at all, just quietly standing guard by Ye Ming’s side, her gaze fixed on him.
In the blink of an eye, the sky had begun to brighten.
With the cool breeze of the morning blowing over, Ye Ming slowly opened his eyes and took in his surroundings.
It turned out that their location was an ancient village that had been deserted for many years, with no signs of people within a hundred miles.
This, however, proved to be very convenient for Ye Ming as he could refine his elixirs here without worrying about disturbances from others.
After searching around the village for a short while, Ye Ming found several discarded iron pieces that were perfect to use as alchemy vessels.
He ticulously sorted the herbs he had collected and then began the process of refining elixirs.
With nothing else to do, Lin ngdie played around the area, occasionally picking fruits for Ye Ming to eat or catching a couple of wild rabbits.
Thanks to her busy morning, she managed to take care of both their lunches.
After a morning’s worth of effort, Ye Ming had produced more than twenty elixir pills.
Using all the rare herbs at his disposal, he made a Great Spirit Condensing Elixir that contained spiritual energy so abundant that even he was moved by it.
From the remaining Soul Condensing Pills, Ye Ming took out five and handed them to Lin ngdie beside him, advising, "Given the strength of your body, it’s best to eat them one by one."
"Wow!" Lin ngdie hadn’t expected that there would be a share for her, feeling instantly surprised.
She carefully took one Soul Condensing Pill and popped it into her mouth, imdiately feeling a tumultuous surge within her Dantian. The imnse Spiritual Energy was almost too much for her to digest, yet she couldn’t bear to waste it.
Thus, she quickly sat down cross-legged and began to ditate, gently absorbing the Spiritual Energy brought by the Soul Condensing Pill for her own use.
By the ti she opened her eyes, half an hour had passed.
She exhaled a murky breath, feeling an unprecedented satisfaction with the changes in her body, hardly believing it.
"This elixir is even better than any I’ve taken before. Ye Ming, how can you be so amazing?"
As the daughter of a sect leader, Lin ngdie had consud nurous elixirs since childhood, her cultivation level built up layer by layer through her family’s resources.
Yet, after consuming the elixirs personally refined by Ye Ming, she felt that all the elixirs she had eaten before were re half-finished products, hardly worthy of being called elixirs.
She composed her shocked expression and looked at Ye Ming with a hint of shyness, realizing that she didn’t know what other surprises this man might have in store.
Now she knew that she truly stood no chance against Ye Ming, so she completely abandoned the idea of canceling their engagent, and she even began to worry whether her father might actually agree to cancel it.
Ye Ming didn’t pay her much attention and swallowed down a Top Quality Spirit Condensing Elixir he had refined.
He also ingested several auxiliary herbal pills to help him digest the Great Spirit Condensing Elixir’s Spiritual Energy.
The mont the elixir entered his mouth, it disappeared, transforming into a wisp of True Qi that entered his Dantian and began to recklessly circulate.
Fortunately, Ye Ming was well-prepared and took in this Spiritual Energy.
If an ordinary person consud such a pill, they would either burst and perish or go mad with unrestrained power.
"Huff!"
Ye Ming exhaled a murky breath and then closed his eyes, sitting in place and furiously circulating his Inner True Qi.
As the True Qi circulated over and over within his body, his ridians expanded more than twofold.
Seeing that Ye Ming had already broken into a sweat, Lin ngdie quickly extended her hand and wiped the sweat off his brow with her sleeve.
In the following ti, she wandered around out of boredom, and even caught so wild rabbits to prepare for the evening al.
Just as she was thoroughly enjoying herself, Ye Ming’s voice suddenly reached her from beside her ear, "Miss Lin, I need you to do a favor!"
Seeing his earnest expression, Lin ngdie certainly didn’t dare to slack off. She hastily dropped the wild fruit from her hands and asked, "What do you need?"
Ye Ming said, "I need you to act as my protector during the following period."
"That is, to ensure that nothing disturbs . Otherwise, the consequences could be dire, perhaps even leading to devastating possession by deviant energies."
"Could it be that you are about to break through?" Lin ngdie stared at him in shock and asked.
Ye Ming did not deny it and said, "Yes, and it’s a very important breakthrough!"
Lin ngdie nodded earnestly and said with seriousness, "Don’t worry, I will stay close and guard you diligently!"
"Even if I die, I won’t let anyone co within half a step of you!"
Ye Ming had saved her many tis before, and she had long wished to repay the favor. Hearing that she was needed, Lin ngdie felt extrely excited.
Ye Ming humd in acknowledgnt, then ceased to converse and concentrated his Inner True Qi to begin breaking through his own bottlenecks.
After the fierce battles at the dicinal herbs conference, Ye Ming’s Inner True Qi was severely depleted. Now, with his efforts, the True Qi had been replenished, and his injuries had also fully healed.
However, the bottlenecks within him, which had not been stirred for a long ti, began to loosen at this mont.
Moreover, having consud the Top Quality Spirit Condensing Elixir, he gained trendous strength and an opportunity to break through the bottleneck, which he must cherish.
Lin ngdie stood by Ye Ming like facing a formidable enemy, safeguarding his security, while Ye Ming devoted his entire energy to the breakthrough.
An entire afternoon passed, and the sky turned dark.
Lin ngdie watched her surroundings with caution and lit a campfire, eating so roasted at simply.
The second day, and the third day continued in the sa way. Ye Ming, with eyes tightly closed, cultivated for advancent, while Lin ngdie quietly guarded beside him.
She would be highly attentive at even the slightest rustle of wind or movent of grass.
Three days later, Ye Ming finally opened his eyes.
"Thank you." The first thing Ye Ming did after opening his eyes was to express his gratitude to Lin ngdie. He was deeply touched by all her actions throughout these days, which he had seen clearly.
Curious, Lin ngdie looked at him and asked, "I’m fine, but what about you? Have you advanced?"
Ye Ming nodded his head and then suddenly let out a loud shout.
In an instant, a trendously powerful energy fluctuation radiated from his body, and the surrounding houses, unable to withstand it, collapsed instantly, sending dust swirling everywhere.
Only Lin ngdie, who was by his side, remained unaffected.
"Isn’t this too terrifying?" Lin ngdie looked around at the surroundings, stunned, and for a long ti couldn’t speak.
Ye Ming moved his joints around, producing popping and crackling sounds, which made him feel extrely refreshed.
But just at that mont, Ye Ming suddenly experienced an intense sense of dread deep within himself.
It was the feeling of death drawing near.
