Liu Ming's face looked somewhat fatigued at the moment; the mental exertion from alchemy was no less than that of a grand battle.
Fortunately, he had asked Zhao Qianying for a second Ascension Fruit. After all, as a high-tier pill, its refinement was not easy. Even with the Six Spirit Cauldron, he failed the first time; but by a stroke of luck, during his second attempt, he unexpectedly crafted two earth-tier pills, which made him immensely pleased.
"From my experience, if the pill's aura is released for too long, its efficacy might diminish. It's best to consume it as soon as possible," he said, then covered both jade boxes and handed one to Zhao Qianying.
Zhao Qianying accepted the jade box and nodded.
The two discussed and decided to enter the space within the Mountain River Pearl before consuming the pill. After all, they were not entirely sure of the Ascension Pill's effects, and without a protector, there could be danger if they were discovered.
