Chapter 364: Pill Beast, Deep Sea Spirit

With the help of Xiao Ming's detoxifying pills, Zi Yan and the others were able to deal with the poisoned air without any issues.

Just as Xiao Ming was about to instruct them to search for more pills, their attention was suddenly drawn to a white figure that flashed across their field of vision and swiftly entered a pill room.

"What was that just now?" Qing Lin asked in confusion.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a pill beast that has transformed into a spirit form, at least a seven-colored eighth-tier pill or higher. I saw many empty bottles downstairs, which were probably consumed by it. After all these years, it should have reached the nine-colored eighth tier. It may be just a step away from a ninth-tier pill," Xiao Ming said with delight. He hadn't even tempted the pill beast with pills yet, but it showed up on its own, saving him some effort.

"An eighth-tier pill beast that has experienced a nine-colored Pill Lightning..." This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

Everyone exchanged glances. In the entire Dou Qi Continent, the number of people capable of refining medicinal pills at this tier could likely be counted on one hand. Even Xiao Ming himself was currently unable to refine it.

"In that case, what are we waiting for? Let's capture this little fellow!" Zi Yan suggested, excitement evident in her voice.

"Let's not act rashly. While the eighth-tier pill beast may not possess strong offensive power, it won't be easy to deal with. If it gets frightened off, finding it within such a large Pill Hall without its aura as a guide will be challenging," Xiao Ming shook his head. A smile played on his lips as he continued, "Moreover, we don't need to resort to brute force to capture it."

Curious, Zi Yan asked, "What method do you have in mind?"

Xiao Ming smiled faintly and took out a bottle of sixth-tier pills from his storage ring.

He removed the cork and placed the bottle on the ground in front of him, allowing the faint medicinal fragrance to waft out, piquing the curiosity of everyone present.

The fragrance of the sixth-tier pills gradually spread in all directions.

In an instant, the white figure darted out of the pill room it had entered earlier, knocking over the jade bottle on the ground.

The pill inside the bottle vanished without a trace, and the white figure continued to dart about until it came to a halt about ten to fifteen meters away.

At that moment, the true form of the white figure was revealed to everyone's eyes.

It was a small exotic beast, about the size of two palms. Its entire body was snow-white, covered in fluffy and delicate fur, resembling a mix between a tiger and a cat.

The pill beast's face was filled with despair as if it had suffered a great loss.

"This little thing is so cute! Xiao Ming, let me hold it!" Zi Yan exclaimed, eager to get her hands on the pill beast. The other girls also showed interest and quickly gathered around.

At this moment, when Zi Yan, Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lin, and Medusa saw the pill beast, their eyes were filled with amazement. The pill beast's appearance was truly endearing, capturing the soft spots in a woman's heart.

"Here you go!" Xiao Ming, who had finished examining it, didn't mind and handed it over to Zi Yan and the others to play with.

After Zi Yan took the pill beast, she managed to attract the attention of the others. The four women held the pill beast and began to squeeze it, causing the pill beast to have a helpless expression as if it wanted to cry.

While squeezing the small beast, Zi Yan suddenly wiped the saliva from her mouth.

Startled, the pill beast showed a horrified expression and desperately struggled to get into Xiao Yi Xian's arms.

Observing this scene, Xiao Ming pondered. It seemed that the pill beast favored Xiao Yi Xian more.

He thought that this pill beast should have some connection to poison, but the specific type would require further investigation. However, now was not the right time for that. Xiao Ming waved his sleeves, turned around, and headed towards various places in the Pill Hall.

In one luxurious pill room, Xiao Ming discovered a peculiar medicinal cauldron.

The cauldron was quite large, with a deep blue color. The outer wall was adorned with clearly visible patterns resembling tree branches, emanating a strange and tranquil aura that enveloped it, calming one's spirit.

'This cauldron is extraordinary!'

As a Master Alchemist, Xiao Ming could tell at a glance that possessing this cauldron would allow the alchemist to stabilize their spirit and greatly increase the success rate of their pill refinement. This cauldron was no less valuable than his Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron.

'Is this the Deep Sea Spirit mentioned on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking?'

Xiao Ming recalled that the Deep Sea Spirit was originally an extremely hard coral found at the bottom of the sea. After being nurtured by the essence of the sea for a long time, it transformed into a cauldron shape.

The tree branch-like patterns on the outer wall of the cauldron did indeed resemble coral.
