Chapter 13 Practice
Five days later.

In Lin Yuan's courtyard.

"Are three drops enough? Why don't I give you three more drops? Just help me make that medicinal food." Zi Yan looked at Lin Yuan eagerly and asked expectantly.

Looking at the greedy girl in front of him, Lin Yuan couldn't connect her with the girl who looked so weak yesterday because she lost three drops of blood.

Yesterday, Lin Yuan openly asked Zi Yan for help. Zi Yan was also very generous and simply forced out three drops of blood and gave them to Lin Yuan. Looking at the three drops of blood and Zi Yan, who looked pale and weak due to the loss of blood, Lin Yuan felt a little distressed.

Then, Lin Yuan used a lot of high-level spiritual medicines, and combined with his cooking skills, which were second to none among alchemists, he took great pains to prepare a large table of medicinal food that had both flavor and energy, which directly made up for Zi Yan's loss, and she even felt a little full.

The result is the scene before us.

"That's enough. I'll tell you if you need me to!" Lin Yuan said, stroking Zi Yan's head.

"Okay." Zi Yan sighed when she heard that, with a hint of regret in her tone.

"You girl," Lin Yuan heard the sigh and gave Zi Yan a slap on the head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. This girl just thinks about eating all day long.

"Just tell me if you want something to eat. We've already prepared it for you! Here." Looking at the aggrieved Zi Yan, Lin Yuan took out several food boxes and bottles of pills from his storage ring and placed them on the table.

Seeing this, Zi Yan's aggrieved face suddenly turned into a smile. She sat on the chair, opened the lunch box and prepared to eat!
"You eat, I'm going to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower and will be back in a few days!" Lin Yuan instructed Zi Yan.

"Got it, brother, you go ahead!" Zi Yan replied casually to Lin Yuan and continued to work hard on the large table of food in front of her.

In a training room on the lower level of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged. In the jade bottle in front of him were several crimson pills, Blood Spirit Pills, fifth-grade pills that could quickly replenish a person's essence and blood, and could also enhance one's qi and blood strength for a period of time. These pills were prepared in the past few days.

Afterwards, Lin Yuan took out three exquisite jade bottles from the storage ring, opened the jade bottles, and three drops of gem-like blood essence floated out and hovered in front of him, with a lively purple rhyme flowing through them. The blood pressure that should have been on the blood essence had been eliminated with the help of Zi Yan. Fortunately, there was Zi Yan, otherwise the awakening stage of the Hundred Beasts Soul Refining Technique alone would have been a huge obstacle.

The stronger the blood of a monster, the harder it is to eliminate the pressure of its blood essence, and the harder it is to use. This is the power of the blood itself. Therefore, even if you have the top-level blood essence of a monster, it is generally difficult to use it to complete the awakening of the spirit. Zi Yan herself is the top-level blood of a monster, the blood of the Taixu Ancient Dragon King. With her active help, the blood pressure contained in the blood essence can be completely eliminated without any damage. This allows Lin Yuan to obtain the best initial conditions for practicing the Hundred Beasts Refining Spirit Art, and to maximize the upper limit of this body refining fighting skill.

Lin Yuan looked solemn, and formed several complex seals with his hands, forcing out a drop of his own blood essence that contained the purest fighting spirit in his body. The seal changed, and his own blood essence wrapped up the three drops of blood essence with a hint of purple in front of him. Then, the three drops of blood essence slowly merged with Lin Yuan's own blood essence.

Soon, the blood essence of Lin Yuan and Zi Yan completely merged together. A flash of joy appeared in Lin Yuan's eyes, and he swallowed the original blood essence that was fused with three drops of Zi Yan's blood essence. Then he activated the Soul Awakening Chapter of the Hundred Beasts Soul Refining Technique, and the Qi and blood power in his body rushed to that drop of mixed blood essence, and began to forge and nourish the Qi and blood furnace.

Five days later.

Lin Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged, closed his eyes slightly, exuding a majestic energy and blood. A small purple-red energy and blood furnace had already taken shape in his body, and it seemed to resonate with Lin Yuan's heartbeat as it spun. Suddenly, Lin Yuan opened his eyes, a ray of purple light flashed through his eyes, and a strong momentum burst out from Lin Yuan, and his aura had a few more mysterious changes than a few days ago.

"Finally it worked! The awakening stage is complete. My idea was right. Using the Blood Spirit Pill, a Qi and blood elixir to improve one's own Qi and blood can indeed help nourish the Qi and blood furnace."

"He has also broken through to the Four-Star Dou Wang level! This is a pleasant surprise."

"It's time to start the soul refining stage. I killed quite a few fifth-level monsters when I was looking for medicinal herbs with Zi Yan before, and I also obtained some by trading with the elders. This amount of blood essence is enough to complete the initial soul refining and soul upgrading stages. Let's start with the blood essence of the Snow Demon Sky Ape!"

Lin Yuan took out a bottle of essence and blood from the ring. It was the essence and blood extracted from the body of the Snow Demon Ape. He then took out the essence and blood and swallowed it in one gulp.

The moment the essence and blood entered his abdomen, Lin Yuan used the Soul Refining Chapter of the Hundred Beasts Soul Refining Technique, and the Qi and Blood Furnace began to rapidly refine the essence and blood of the Snow Demon Sky Ape.

The ancient dragon aura contained in the Qi and Blood Furnace made the remaining blood essence in this process powerless to resist. A large amount of blood essence was continuously extracted and refined, constantly flowing in the body, cyclically destroying and repairing Lin Yuan's body, and after each cycle was completed, Lin Yuan's body became stronger.

Five days later, Lin Yuan, who was practicing, slid the seal in his hand quickly, and the Qi and blood furnace in his body rotated at a high speed. The powerful Qi and blood power in his body rushed into the Qi and blood furnace frantically. At the same time, Lin Yuan swallowed the Blood Spirit Pill in his mouth, and the Blood Spirit Pill quickly replenished and improved Lin Yuan's Qi and blood.

More than ten minutes later.

"The natal blood pill is done!" With Lin Yuan's light shout, the round blood pill in the blood and qi furnace in his body finally completely solidified and took shape. It was the embryonic form of the natal blood pill.

More than ten minutes later, Lin Yuan put away the seal in his hand. In the center of the blood and qi furnace in his body, a crystal clear light red blood pill with purple hue was suspended in it, emitting huge energy. It was the embryonic pill of his natal blood pill.

"After refining the essence of ten kinds of magic beasts, the soul refining stage has indeed been completed. I have also completed the first step of the soul upgrading stage, the birth of the blood pill embryo. The next step is to continue to polish this blood pill through soul refining and soul upgrading before the Hundred Beasts Soul Refining Technique is completed."

Lin Yuan felt his current strength and nodded with satisfaction.

“Although practicing this Hundred Beasts Spirit Refining Technique consumes a lot of resources, it is indeed powerful. This way, I can devour strange fires more easily in the future.”

"At present, I am only able to use my physical strength to rival ordinary low-level Dou Wang. My Dou Qi has also made a significant breakthrough by digesting part of the power in my blood essence. After being refined in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, it has stabilized at the middle stage of a 4-star Dou Wang. I should be able to fight a high-level Dou Wang head-on. I can't continue to practice in seclusion. It's time to go out."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yuan made a decision. He then stood up, put away his Fire Crystal Card, and left the Tianfen Refining Tower.

As soon as he returned to his own small courtyard, Zi Yan rushed over and grabbed Lin Yuan's arm.

"Brother Lin Yuan, you're finally back. I missed you so much! Look, I missed you so much that I lost weight." Zi Yan eagerly expressed her "longing" for Lin Yuan. She looked at Lin Yuan with sparkling eyes and her words were suggestive.

"Do you miss me or do you want me to cook for you?" Lin Yuan said unhappily.

"Hehe, I want everything." Zi Yan shook Lin Yuan's left arm and said coquettishly.

"I really can't do anything with you." He tapped Zi Yan's little head lovingly with his finger, "I'm in a good mood today, so I'll make you a big meal!"

"Great!" Zi Yan was overjoyed when she heard that.

"But, Brother Lin Yuan, what happened to you? Why do you exude an aura that makes me feel close to you?" Zi Yan was a little confused.

After hearing this, Lin Yuan thought about it for a moment and understood. It was most likely that the Hundred Beasts Soul Refining Technique that he practiced using Zi Yan's blood essence had allowed him to be contaminated with some of Zi Yan's ancient dragon aura. This aura from the same source made Zi Yan feel close to her.

"Isn't this a good idea?" Lin Yuan didn't explain too much, but asked Zi Yan with a chuckle.

"That's great! We feel more comfortable when we're together." Zi Yan replied without hesitation.

"That's great. Come on, I'll go get ready and make you a feast!"

"Great!"

The two of them walked towards the kitchen while chatting and laughing.
