Replacing a thin, minor root with a master root was naturally a completely different concept. This kind of common sense, even an ordinary person was able to understand it. Naturally, cultivators understood the difference between the accumulated Spirit Power, as well as the difference between their functions even more clearly.

Yang Chen had begun with four pills, they were merely tests after all and still far from genuinely refined foundation stage pills. This time, Yang Chen was even more serious and the refining time was longer by two or three times.

Naturally, the cause for the long duration was the time needed to refine the master root of the Penglai Divine Wood, which was many times longer and it was also more difficult compared to refining the small, minor root. Just this one step had taken a few months for Yang Chen. The strength of the master root could clearly be ascertained from the fact that this was the result of Yang Chen controlling the Real Sun Fire with all of his strength for the entire duration.

Selecting the best quality of Profound Yang Fruits and the best complementary ingredients as well as the thickest master root within the forest of Penglai Divine Wood trees, just this had used up one whole quarter of the medicine garden’s Spirit Power. And Yang Chen was merely using them to reach the foundation stage, this was simply too wasteful.

After two months, the final product was a dark green pill with three, clear pill patterns on top of it, in the shape of a miniature Penglai Divine Wood tree: the third grade Divine Wood Foundation Stage Pill.

Those minor defects in the previous pills had been reduced by a lot under Yang Chen’s meticulous control, becoming more and more perfect. The concentrated medicinal qi hovering over the pill immediately made people realize how extraordinary this pill was.

After making careful preparations, Yang Chen put that perfect pill into his mouth. As soon as the dragon eye sized pill entered his mouth, it dissolved into the essence of Penglai Divine Wood which Yang Chen was familiar with and rushed directly towards Yang Chen’s lungs.

Surging violently through his meridians, the Spirit Power of the Penglai Divine Wood started tyrannically blending with his first wood Spirit Power. After a short amount of time, it had completely assimilated with the first wood Spirit Power within Yang Chen’s body, without any restraints.

This process was far more gentle compared to when Yang Chen had used the Real Sun Fire to compress the Third Fire Spirit Power. For every trace of Spirit Power he purified, a huge amount of Spirit Power was consumed, all of this loss had to be made up by the Spirit Power produced from the Five Phases of Yin and Yang Spirit Power within Yang Chen’s body, as well as the Spirit Power that was supplied by the third grade foundation stage pill.
