"Let's call this the Growth Pill. Next, let's try the others." Ye Liuyun felt that these pills which affected plants were much more interesting than the others; they had a flavor of Earth's biotechnology.
If Ye Liuyun were to bring these Alchemy techniques back to Earth, she would surely be a biologist and pharmacologist, right?
The second Medicinal Pill was a bit strange, as it was multicolored, looking like several pigments kneaded together.
After this pill dissolved into the water, the liquid was also multicolored, providing a very vivid visual impact. "Is this really a medicinal liquid? It feels strange; I have absolutely no desire to drink it," Ye Liuyun said, looking at the medicinal liquid in the bottle with a strange expression.
After saying this, she poured the liquid onto the Spirit Peach Tree and took a few steps back. This time, the liquid did not seem to have a growth-promoting effect, but soon, an even more bizarre effect than that of the Growth Pill manifested.
The leaves of the Spirit Peach Tree began to shift colors like a marquee light, gradually turning from green to red, then from red to blue, constantly cycling through various colors.
"What does this mean? Is it just changing the color of the leaves?" Ye Liuyun was puzzled. Lin Qingyou also watched this color-changing Spirit Peach Tree with curiosity. Through her Divine Sense, she observed that it wasn't just the leaves of the Spirit Peach Tree that were changing; everything inside was changing as well.
Plants, like Spirit Beasts, also have Bloodlines, though their Bloodlines are more abstract. Among peach trees, the highest status belongs to the Peach Tree of Immortality, which is a spiritual plant of heaven and earth. Lin Qingyou had seen one when she was in the Immortal Realm; eating a single fruit could grant an Immortal thousands of years of cultivation level.
One must never think that once an Immortal Cultivator ascends to the Immortal Realm, they have reached the end. In reality, they are far from it. Mortals all dream of Immortal Ascension, but once you ascend, you realize how high the sky truly is. For an Immortal, the Immortal Realm is merely the beginning.
"It's truly strange. Although my Alchemy can indeed freely fuse various Medicinal Herbs, I have never tried this myself. Could it really produce such strange and special Medicinal Pills?" Even Lin Qingyou found the pills synthesized by Ye Liuyun somewhat unfathomable.
She was a proper Alchemist. Although she had created some Medicinal Pills herself, the pills she created were actually quite similar to conventional ones and were not as bizarre as Ye Liuyun's.
Ye Liuyun's pills were non-mainstream, unorthodox Medicinal Pills. This was a realm of Alchemy that Lin Qingyou had never touched; she could only say that Ye Liuyun might have pioneered a new path of Alchemy.
The Spirit Peach Tree soon stopped changing colors and settled on a water-blue hue, meaning the tree now had water-blue leaves. "Has it stopped? Water-blue leaves? Could this pill cause plants to mutate?" After confirming that the Spirit Peach Tree was no longer mutating, Ye Liuyun walked over, reached out to pluck a leaf, and sensed it.
However, in her perception, it seemed only the color had changed, with no other alterations. "Master, do you feel there is anything special about this water-blue Spirit Peach Tree?" Ye Liuyun asked after observing it.
"It seems its Bloodline has mutated. What the effects of a plant Bloodline mutation might be, I am not entirely sure; perhaps we will have to wait until it bears fruit to judge. However, the Medicinal Pills you have concocted, brat, are truly shocking," Lin Qingyou praised.
Hearing this, Ye Liuyun was very pleased. Honestly, aside from the incident where synthesizing pills turned her into a woman, this random Fusion and mixing of Medicinal Herbs was quite interesting. "Hehe, let's call this the Mutation Pill. Let's keep trying." After saying this, Ye Liuyun dissolved the remaining three Medicinal Pills into the water in one go, then poured all the liquid onto the tree.
This time, the Spirit Peach Tree did not seem to undergo any particularly obvious changes, but after a while, the heaven and earth underwent another anomaly; thunderclouds rolled in, and wild winds howled.
A bolt of heavenly lightning descended from the sky and struck the mutated Spirit Peach Tree, frightening Ye Liuyun so much that she immediately hid far away to avoid being caught in the lightning strike.
Even more strangely, this bolt of lightning did not destroy the Spirit Peach Tree; on the contrary, the Spirit Peach Tree actually absorbed the power of the lightning.
"Boom, boom..." The heavenly lightning fell continuously. This scene once again caused the Disciples and high-ranking members of the Yunxia Sect to pay attention to the location of the lightning strikes.
However, when they tried to use their Divine Sense to capture the lightning, their Divine Sense felt as if it had been pricked by needles, forcing them to retract it immediately. Today's heavenly lightning was different from usual; it seemed that this heavenly lightning did not allow them to investigate.
"This? Is there actually a force between heaven and earth preventing me from investigating? This is much more bizarre than what happened last time," Yun Yun said, squinting her eyes.
Unable to investigate with Divine Sense, they did not know where the lightning had fallen, only that it had definitely fallen within the Yunxia Sect. Although they were used to these Nine Heavens lightning strikes, today was different from usual.
A total of nine bolts of lightning fell from the sky, and the power of this lightning was even more ferocious than the last time during the Body Tempering. If this lightning were to strike a Cultivator, they would likely be blasted into ash. Fortunately, this lightning was not aimed at Cultivators.
After the nine lightning strikes ended, the weather cleared. A streak of purple Qi, accompanied by auspicious five-colored clouds, permeated the sky above the Yunxia Sect. The scene was breathtaking, but it only lasted for a minute before dissipating.
"It's over. Ah! What has happened to our Yunxia Sect over these years? I really don't know if these phenomena are a sign of good fortune or disaster." The Disciples began to converse as they watched the sky clear.
"Go and investigate where the lightning strikes just landed within the Sect." Yun Yun's voice suddenly rang out across the entire Sect.
However, it was a pity that they certainly wouldn't be able to tell, because the Spirit Peach Tree in Ye Liuyun's courtyard had already vanished, or rather, it had been destroyed by the heavenly lightning, leaving only a charred stump.
"This? Eh? Master, what is going on? How did it get destroyed by the heavenly lightning? Did I use too much medicine?" Ye Liuyun said, feeling awkward as she looked at the smoking stump.
Lin Qingyou took a careful look and then smiled knowingly.
"No, it just needs to undergo Nirvana and Rebirth. When it grows out again, you will know what effect your medicines had on it," Lin Qingyou said.
Ye Liuyun nodded. She suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for the changes in the Spirit Peach Tree after its Rebirth.
Everything that needed to be tested had been tested, and now it was time to wait for the results. Currently, neither Ye Liuyun nor Lin Qingyou could say for sure what kind of state these Medicinal Pills had turned the Spirit Peach Tree into.
The Disciples of the Yunxia Sect followed Yun Yun's instructions and searched everywhere, but the result was that they did not find where the lightning had struck. There was no large area of charring in Ye Liuyun's courtyard, just a pitch-black stump.
Upon hearing Yun Yun's voice, Ye Liuyun immediately hid in her residence. It was fine to expose her talent for Alchemy, but she certainly could not admit to or expose these strange and bizarre occurrences.
After all, the various phenomena she had created while refining medicine had caused quite a lot of trouble for the Sect.
At night, as the moon rose over the mountain, the pit in the back mountain where the bodies of the small animals were buried suddenly showed signs of movement.
