Ling Mo and Gu Xiaochui looked at each other in bewilderment at the scene before them.
Gu Xiaochui, in particular, looked at Yun Jing with a hint of pity in his eyes.
At that moment, he was incredibly grateful that he was an orphan and didn't know his own birthday.
Seeing that Yun Jing didn't move, Rong Zi urged, "Hurry up and open it. The pills I've researched this time are sure to impress you."
Yun Jing hesitated for a moment.
He took a deep breath before silently opening the small box in his hand.
Gu Xiaochui and Ling Mo also came over, wanting to see what kind of amazing pill Rong Zi had come up with this time.
Despite having made preparations.
But when the three of them looked into the box, they were so stunned that they didn't recover for a long time.
In the end, Ling Mo was the first to break the deadlock.
He opened his eyes wide and looked at Rong Zi in disbelief.
"This is... a medicinal pill?"
When he was about to leave Rongling Sect, Rong Zi gave him a lot of pills and talismans.
The diverse shapes and forms of those pills at that time had already refreshed his understanding of alchemy.
Unexpectedly, she was able to make him refresh it again...
Seeing Ling Mo's reaction, Rong Zi assumed he was amazed by the special properties of her pills and nodded with immense pride.
"That's right, isn't it special?"
Ling Mo: "..."
It's more than just special.
It's absolutely mind-blowing...
Gu Xiaochui and Yun Jing were completely speechless.
Gu Xiaochui reached out and patted Yun Jingxiao's shoulder with a look that said, "Good luck to you."
Yun Jing looked utterly dejected.
Rong Zi had already begun explaining the effects of the two boxes of pills to him with great enthusiasm.
"This box contains Thunder Spirit Pills, which contain pure lightning power and will greatly benefit your cultivation. However, you may experience a slight numbness when you take them, but don't worry, there are absolutely no side effects."
"And this box contains my latest pills, which I've named the Hundred Transformations Pill. As for its effects, you can try one first; it will definitely be a pleasant surprise."
Yun Jing's expression stiffened slightly as she hesitated, "Should we try it now?"
"Okay, let's try it now." Rong Zi's eyes were full of anticipation.
Yun Jing turned her head and glanced at Gu Xiaochui beside her, secretly giving him a look, seeking help.
When Gu Xiaochui caught his gaze, she cleared her throat and silently took two steps back.
This indicates that he is also powerless to help.
Regardless, this is also a birthday gift from Master to Yun Jing.
He couldn't very well step in and stop Yun Jing from eating, could he?
Yun Jing's face scrunched up like a steamed bun.
Gu Xiaochui gave him an encouraging look, subtly cheering him on.
It's fine.
It'll pass if you grit your teeth, close your eyes, and it'll be over.
Yun Jing: "..."
If he grits his teeth and closes his eyes, he might actually make it through.
And it's the kind where you can't wake up...
Seeing that he was all alone and helpless, Yun Jing realized that Rong Zi was looking at him expectantly.
In the end, he resigned himself to his fate, picked up a Transformation Pill, and stuffed it into his mouth with a look of grim determination.
The shape of the pill in his hand was rather indescribable; Yun Jing was even prepared to choke on it.
To his surprise, the pills melted instantly upon entering his mouth.
Moreover, it tastes slightly sweet.
Before Yun Jing could even react, the pill slid down his throat and into his stomach.
Seeing that he swallowed it, Rong Zi quickly came over and asked him.
How are you feeling?
Yun Jing licked her lips, still somewhat bewildered.
He replied truthfully, "It melts in your mouth and is sweet, it tastes very good, a bit like candy."
Gu Xiaochui looked doubtful. "Really?"
In the past, the pills his master refined always had an indescribable burnt smell in addition to being bitter.
Not only does it taste bad, but it's also incredibly harsh on the throat.
Eating it once could almost choke someone to death.
And this time, the elixir is actually sweet?
Yun Jing nodded, "Yes, it really is. If you don't believe me, you can try one yourself."
As he spoke, he actually took one out of the box and handed it to Gu Xiaochui.
Seeing this, Rong Zi also looked at him with anticipation.
Gu Xiaochui met her gaze and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. He quickly waved his hand awkwardly, "I'll pass. This is your birthday gift, Senior Brother. How can I eat it?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Zi immediately responded.
“That’s easy. I have plenty of pills. If you want them, I’ll get them for you right now.”
She was about to reach for the pills when she said that.
After a month of seclusion, Rong Zi refined a large number of pills in one go.
It's so good that it can be eaten as a meal.
Moreover, she plans to sell it tomorrow.
Gu Xiaochui's hands were practically breaking from waving them around. "No need, no need, really no need!"
His eyes flickered, and before Rong Zi could take out the pills, he quickly changed the subject.
"Master, you haven't told Senior Brother yet what the wonderful uses of this elixir are?"
Rong Zi paused for a moment as he took out the pills.
She slapped her forehead and said, "Oh right, I almost forgot about that."
The three apprentices: "..."
He's only a teenager, but he looks like he has Alzheimer's.
Rong Zi temporarily stopped handing Gu Xiaochui the pills, leaned down to look Yun Jing in the eye, and instructed, "Yun Jing, try to use your spiritual power to activate the effects of the medicine in your body, and then imagine the appearance of a person in your mind."
