Chapter 1616 "Sacred Pill"
"Miss Nie..." Lin Shan was about to speak, but Nie Xiaoqian interrupted him, saying, "Just call me Xiaoqian. We are already quite familiar with each other, not exactly friends, but not strangers either."
Lin Shan smiled and asked, "Don't we still consider ourselves friends?"
"Aren't you human cultivators always at odds with us demonic cultivators?" Nie Xiaoqian asked.
Lin Shan waved his hand and said, "You're generalizing and implicating everyone based on the actions of a few. It's possible that some people may have a grudge against your demon cultivators due to their own arrogance, but that doesn't include everyone."
"So, you're willing to be friends with me?" Nie Xiaoqian said happily.
Lin Shan nodded and said, "Not to mention anything else, the fact that you just saved my friend is enough for you to be my friend, Lin Shan."
"Come, let's get to know each other again." Nie Xiaoqian stood up and introduced herself seriously, saying, "My name is Nie Xiaoqian, and the demonic cultivator Nie Wuming is my grandfather. So people in Moyun Ridge usually call me Holy Maiden! Of course, you can call me Xiaoxian since you are my friend."
Lin Shan also introduced himself seriously, saying, "My name is Lin Shan. I am a disciple of the Lingyun Sect. However, because my aptitude is considered decent, I have been recognized as a younger brother by Fairy Lingxiao." Note: The translation provided is a literal translation and may not be the most natural or grammatically accurate.
"Lingxiao Fairy? That's the third-ranking figure of Lingyun Sect. It seems like you're not an ordinary disciple either," Nie Xiaoqian said.
"These are all nothing." Lin Shan waved his hand and then took out some spiritual tea to share with Nie Xiaoqian.
The two of them sat still, ignoring the surrounding treasures as if they were invisible.
"It must be because of you that the four of you were able to enter the Divine Pool, right?" Nie Xiaoqian asked.
Lin Shan also didn't hide anything and nodded, saying, "That's right, I brought them in."
"It seems like your talent is quite extraordinary. Although this place is an illusion, the spiritual energy here is extremely abundant. Let's make good use of these three days to cultivate. Even if we don't gain anything in the future, it won't be a wasted trip." Nie Xiaoqian said.
"This is just what I wanted! I have some elixirs here, I'll give you some. It will enhance the effect even more," Lin Shan said.
"Okay, thank you," Nie Xiaoqian accepted Lin Shan's offer, even though she had her own elixirs.
She understood that this was a kind of care between friends.
In the following three days, they truly immersed themselves in their cultivation, and their cultivation base naturally made great progress. Lin Shan even advanced another level and reached the fourth stage of Enlightenment. His cultivation speed was truly unparalleled.
As for the treasures around, anyone else would find it difficult to resist such immense temptations.
Just as the two were about to break through the formation and escape, the illusion unexpectedly vanished all of a sudden.
In front of us, there turned out to be a simple and unadorned cave, with a row of eerie stone statues lined along its edge.
"Have we finally come out?" Nie Xiaoqian asked uncertainly.
Lin Shan perceived for a moment, then nodded and said, "Not bad, the illusion has disappeared. What happened?"
Nie Xiaoqian thought for a moment and said, "Maybe because we were not deceived by those treasures within the illusion, after a certain time, we passed the assessment?"
“还真有这个可能。也不知道她们几个在哪儿？”林山道。
“咱们沿着山洞进去看看，没准就在里面呢。”聂小倩道。
Lin Shan nodded and then walked deep into the cave with Nie Xiaoqian.
Along the way, they did not encounter any obstacles such as traps, dangers, or formations, and smoothly entered a stone chamber that showed signs of human repair. Please let me know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
The stone chamber is not considered large, but it's not small either, measuring roughly a few hundred square meters. Inside, there are some simple stone tables and stools, as well as a wooden bed and holes carved into the rock wall, resembling shelves for placing objects.
Most of these pits are empty, but there are also several pits containing bottles and jars.
The two of them exchanged glances and walked towards the rock wall together.
Standing in front of a pit, Lin Shan first took out a seemingly ordinary bottle. Surprisingly, inside the bottle were two golden pills, shining like gold beans. As soon as he opened the bottle, a strong medicinal fragrance rushed out, quickly filling the entire stone room.
Lin Shan asked in surprise, "What kind of pill is this?"
Nie Xiaoqian frowned and took a look, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the legendary Saint's Pill."
"Sheng Ren Dan? What are its effects?" Lin Shan asked curiously.
Although his identity is now not ordinary, he has been focused on cultivating and enhancing his strength, so his knowledge about certain things in this world is not very comprehensive.
"This is a lifesaver when facing danger. Let me tell you, one Holy Sage Pill can instantly enhance your strength to that of a master at the Transformation Realm. Moreover, this pill has no side effects and is an extremely rare elixir." Nie Xiaoqian said. Thank you for using OpenAI's translation service! Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.
"Zaohua Realm? That's impressive." Lin Shan exclaimed with joy as he poured out a pill from the medicine bottle and handed it to Nie Xiaoqian, saying, "There are a total of two pills inside, one for each of us."
"Isn't this bad? This is what you discovered," Nie Xiaoqian said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Consider it a gift from me as a friend," Lin Shan placed the Sage Pill in Nie Xiaoqian's palm, then continued examining the bottles and jars nearby.
However, he didn't find anything else worthwhile. It seems like his luck has run out.
"Could it be that the opportunity mentioned by the Dragon Clan was just these two Saint-level pills?" Lin Shan couldn't help feeling unwilling.
Although this Saint's Pill is a good thing, it is still somewhat mediocre for Lin Shan.
Because his cultivation speed is very fast, I believe it won't take long for him to reach the Creation Realm. Please note that the translation provided is purely based on the given context and may not be an exact representation of the original Chinese text.
Even if he can't reach the realm of cultivation, he should still have the ability to fight.
Besides, before he becomes powerful, he doesn't want to wander around casually risking his life.
"Lin Shan, come here quickly!" Just then, Nie Xiaoxuan suddenly shouted with joy from the other side.
If it can make this Saint girl from Moyunling so amazed, it must be something good.
"What's wrong?" Lin Shan ran over and asked.
Nie Xiaoqian stared at the stone wall and said, "Look, it's the cultivation technique left behind by the predecessors here!"
"What is this text?" Lin Shan didn't recognize a single character, it looked like some kind of ghostly symbol.
Nie Xiaoqian smiled proudly and said, "This is the writing of our demonic cultivators, and it is written using unique magic runes. In this world, there would not be more than ten people who can recognize these characters."
"Are you saying that the predecessor of this cave is a demonic cultivator?" Lin Shan asked.
Nie Xiaoqian looked at the stone wall and said, "No, he was a human cultivator, but he somehow mastered our demonic cultivators' supreme scriptures. It's really strange!"
"Are those cultivation techniques on the stone wall specifically for your demonic cultivation?" Lin Shan asked.
"The Yin Yang Nine Transformations! It is a cultivation technique created by this senior. According to the records on the wall, both your human race and our demonic cultivators can practice this technique," Nie Xiaoqian explained while looking at the words on the stone wall.
"Oh? I wonder what powers this cultivation method has?" Lin Shan asked with great interest.
