?A day later, Yu Huan finished refining a certain Alchemy Pill made from the Heart of Ice Lands he retrieved in the Secret Realm.

It was something she was working on for the past several days, and was the sole reason Wu Long slightly delayed departing to the Yin Yang Unity Palace.

“Hahaha, who would have thought that a root which grows in the coldest places with abundance of Cold Qi and natural Yin Qi would be a potent Yang attribute Medicinal Root.

Yu Huan lightly laughed with wonder, opening a jade box with a pill inside it.

“Believe it or not, it is actually somewhat of a pattern, as extremes can birth opposing extremes. Some of the most potent Yang attribute Medicinal Plants could be found in the ideal Yin attribute environments, and vice versa”

Wu Long smiled, turning his gaze to the box.

“Thank you, Fairy Yu Huan. As I thought, it is a blessing to have your help”

He said as he carefully retrieved the Flawless-quality 9th-tier pill from the box with a light of appreciation in his eyes.

“How can that be true?. True blessing is for someone like me meeting you, Daoist Wu”

Yu Huan made a shy smile, her cheeks becoming a little rosy but not turning her gaze away, and also looking at the pill with a slightly proud gaze.

She truly did not take his praise as something she deserved, so she was not as affected by it.

“If I haven’t met you, I would still be at a dead-end position within Alchemy Tower, struggling to even remember why I aspired to be an alchemist in the first place”

Yu Huan added, full of gratitude for everything she received from him.

“I think you still underestimate just how precious your talent is.

Make no mistake, I know the value of what I gave you, and however generous to you I may seem, I do not view its value lowly, and am not so kind to provide it to just anyone, nor am I giving it with nothing to gain.

And while I admit that there is goodwill toward you personally, you have earned more and more of my trust by the results you produce, which is why I felt comfortable giving you more”

Wu Long shook his head with a chuckle continuing to look at the pill, the sun reflecting on its shiny surface.

He didn’t intend to devalue or diminish what he did for her. It was not necessary, since, no matter how truly amazing and invaluable it was, it still paled in comparison to what he received in return.

“You are a brilliant fledgling alchemist, with potential to become truly great. Do you know how rare that is?

The Dao of Alchemy is vast and unfathomable, it requires not only Heaven-gifted talents that allow you to cultivate that Dao, but also a sharp mind to understand the teachings of the past, keen eye to see flaws and imperfections, as well as courage and imagination to explore and move forward, to be adventurous and venture where no one has ever stepped foot.

And while it is important to remain humble, knowing that there is always more that you do not know than what you know, you cannot put yourself down, it will affect your confidence to move forward”

He spoke calmly, not rushing as his gaze was observing the pill that he held and turned from side to side with his fingers while hers already turned to him.

“There could be other people who could help you, maybe not the way I did, but who could at the very least bring you out of that situation and provide you with the resources to improve.

But there are none that I can imagine who would be able to answer me with this after a mere year and a half if I provided them with everything I gave to you”

He turned to her, raising the hand with the pill to drive his point home.

“And those are not mere words, it has been proven before”

A chuckle escaped his lips as a flurry of faces went past his eyes.

Yu Huan was not the first alchemist to receive Wu Long’s support.

Far from it.

She was the last in a line so long one could not write it down even on a scroll that was the same length as the continent they were on from North to South.

Some had more support, some had less, but they were all given a chance, the same chance she got, to prove themselves, to improve and thrive, and to reciprocate his generosity.

After all, in a world where trust in the alchemist was essential in order to safely use the products of alchemy, it was inevitable that he wanted to have an alchemist he could trust and rely on.

Most cultivators who became powerful figures did so.

Just like the majority of those who could be called influential had a Dao Cultivator whom they held a connection to.

And out of all those countless people, she was the one who shined the most brilliantly.

Not by the virtue of her achievements in the Dao of Alchemy, as she had a very long and difficult way ahead of her, and was far behind the vast majority of alchemists he supported at the time his ties with them were cut, but by the virtue of the sheer potential she held.

This time her gaze turned away as she found it difficult to maintain eye contact, her rosy cheeks reddening.

“I… if that is so, I am glad I am able to do something for you.

I will work hard to improve further”

She spoke in a low voice, that could not conceal the notes of pure joy.

“Mm, that is a response I like”

He nodded with a satisfied smile, standing up to leave.

—

Wu Long took the pill and digested it not far from Ye Ling, as near her was currently the best place to become vulnerable.

He had Battle Cultivation Scripture, so it was not an issue of security, since he could interrupt his cultivation at any moment to deal with any threat, but it still gave him a peace of mind to be able to concentrate almost entirely on refining the pill.

He implemented a new method he devised from the legacy of the Brilliant Sun Temple, using it to enhance his old method of Yang Qi strengthening as another building block of his body tempering cultivation method.

Golden Yang Dragon Body Art that he used before gave him the ability to produce massive amounts of potent Yang Qi. But the increase in potency was not as incredible as the increase in quality over time.

The Golden Yang Qi that he could achieve with it was powerful, but fundamentally was still within reach of other Dual Cultivators as there were other methods of cultivating it, even if the one he created gave the best results as far as he knew.

However, what he achieved now was something no other Dual Cultivator could replicate with any other technique, it was the Golden Solar Yang Qi.

The moment his Yang Root achieved the state capable of producing a small amount of that Golden Solar Yang Qi, all of his women felt a wave of strength rush toward them through their bond.
