Cale smirked. With all his accumulated resources, he had nearly everything on this list.

”Hmm, but what is this Chilling Bone...”

Then he suddenly remembered, the red flower he’d acquired while saving Koza!

He produced it in his palm, staring at it.

”So you accounted for this flower too. Well, finally this thing has some use. I seriously considered selling it elsewhere if it was useless.”

Reading through the refinement steps, his smirk deepened.

”Heh, isn’t this way too easy? I don’t even face backlash?”

He retreated into the inner sanctum and retrieved the book. As he had guessed, the second page had manifested inside it.

Floating through the mindscape, he entered a massive structure which was clearly designed for alchemy, since it had cauldrons of varying sizes scattered throughout, though no books anywhere.

Cale settled in the center, contemplating. ’Hmm, should I name each section? That would be interesting.’

”From now on, this place is the Alchemy Pavilion.”

The instant he spoke, the signboard’s ancient text changed, reforming into common language.

He arranged all materials in order and began the process.

At his current level, mental focus no longer required closed eyes or meditation. The system’s enhancement of his mental strength had leveled him far beyond such limitations.

First, he summoned flames into his body-cauldron, preheating it.

’Yes, yes, I am a pressure cooker...’

Then, one by one, Spirit Gathering Moss and Soul Revival Grass, extracting their pure essences. Next, the Chilling Bone Flame Flower to draw forth its dual ice-fire liquid.

’Alright... so far, so good.’

The main phase required separating the liquids into individual corners, preventing premature mixing that would detonate his internal organs.

’This is where separator works, hehe. Its a heaven send.’

He threw the Beast Core in to melt its dense energy, and at the exact next second, inserted Rank 7 Beast Flesh to burn away savage impurities.

Miraculously, it worked. The flower was too rare for failure—a one-time opportunity. Who knew when he would get such material again?!

His chances would definitely improve in the future, but this... was a rare opportunity.

Reading the next steps, he poured Beast Blood in, simmering it down to pure life essence, then introduced Blood-Clotting Vine to stabilize the volatile extraction.

’Now, to refine the fuck out of all this like a goddamn grinder.’

Using one soul body, he carefully poured the Chilling Bone Flame Flower liquid into the mixture.

Funneled Soul Revival Grass and Spirit Gathering Moss essences slowly, one minuscule drop at a time.

’Seriously, who invented this one-drop-at-a-time technique? Masochists, seriously!’

Next came compression, to funnel the fully combined mix into a rough pill embryo shape using pressure. Apply constant, gentle warmth to smooth the surface. Using Origin Essence and black flames to compress it from liquid to solid state.

Finally, snatch the completed Yin Yang Life Soul Pill from the circling sphere of pressure before it dissolved completely.

He did exactly that, storing it immediately in a pill box.

Brushing sweat from his forehead, he exhaled heavily. ”Huff, that was quite the technique. Must be Tier Two level. My body’s compatibility with advanced refinement is impressive now. Well, let’s consume it quickly.”

He gathered the energy he’d expended during creation, refilling his depleted reserves meticulously.

After several more minutes of meditation, Cale settled into lotus position and consumed the pill.

The Yin Yang Life Soul Pill resting on his tongue.

The moment he swallowed, the world exploded.

The pill dissolved like starlight melting on his tongue, releasing a torrent of dual-natured energy that felt like swallowing contained lightning and absolute zero simultaneously.

His mouth erupted in searing heat and crystalline cold mixed, neither overwhelming the other but instead creating something crazy.

The energy poured down his throat like liquid fire and ice woven together.

His meridians ignited.

The Yin essence—cold, ethereal, flowed upward through his central channel like water seeking the highest point, spreading through his shoulders and neck before cascading into his skull.

Every cell sang, his consciousness itself seeming to crystallize as the energy touched it. Mental clarity bloomed like flowers blooming in accelerated time. It felt like taking drugs.

Simultaneously, Yang essence surged downward through his lower body, pooling in his core before radiating outward through every limb. It burned through his legs, strengthening muscle fibers, condensing bone density, refining his physical vessel more.

The dual energies met at his heart.

For a fraction of a second, they collided—fire and ice, light and shadow, expansion and contraction all warring at once. Cale’s body trembled violently as he channeled his will into the conflict, not suppressing either force but instead weaving them together in spiraling patterns.

His soul bodies in the inner sanctum, immediately assisted, their combined consciousness helping him manage the overwhelming influx.

One directed the Yin essence toward his spiritual form, fortifying his Divine Consciousness and strengthening his mental barriers.

The other guided Yang essence toward his physical body, accelerating cellular regeneration and pushing his body’s adaptive evolution forward.

His Kunpeng bloodline resonated with the dual nature, recognizing kindred power. The drop of divine blood pulsed in rhythm with the pill’s energy, as if welcoming reinforcement of its own nature. Ice and flame merged with the oceanic and solar properties already encoded in his genetic structure.

For long moments, Cale existed in a state beyond normal consciousness, aware of every transformation occurring simultaneously, riding the wave of power without drowning in it.

Slowly, the intensity decreased.

The energies settled into his expanded channels, spreading evenly through every fiber of his being until equilibrium returned. The searing and freezing sensations faded into a warm, comfortable fullness—satiated.
