After realizing this, Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi's gazes towards Qing Mu immediately changed.
Qingmu's success was far from as easy as he claimed. Even setting aside the challenge of controlling flames, they had never even heard of the power of wood spirits, so it must not be a simple thing.
Qing Mu had no idea what Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi were thinking. He was still looking at the pill in his hand with curiosity, wondering how effective the Soul-Ascending Pill would be after his actions.
Immediately, Qing Mu turned to Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi and suggested, "I'm a little curious about the effects of this pill. Do you have any methods to test it?"
After hearing Qing Mu's words, Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi finally came to their senses.
Yang Wudi pondered for a moment and said, "Based on the performance of the previous pills, I can deduce that the efficacy of this Soul-Ascending Pill is at least fifty percent higher than that of the previous Soul-Ascending Pill."
However, to determine the exact extent of the improvement and whether there has been any change in the overall effect, further testing is needed.
"Then I'll give it a try."
Upon hearing this, Qing Mu volunteered to personally test the effects of the Soul-Ascending Pill.
Seeing the shocked expressions on Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi's faces, Qing Mu smiled and said, "I refined this pill, so it's a good thing that I'm the one testing it. Besides, I'm immune to all poisons, so even if the pill changes a bit, I won't be in any danger."
After saying that, Qing Mu swallowed the Soul Ascension Pill that she had just refined.
In an instant, a powerful medicinal force slowly spread from Qing Mu's body, impacting all of Qing Mu's meridians.
"This medicinal power..."
Qing Mu's expression hardened slightly. He immediately sat cross-legged, began to meditate, and started to refine the powerful medicinal energy within his body.
Fortunately, Qingmu was used to this kind of situation and was quite skilled at it. Although this time there was more energy and the duration was longer, Qingmu still managed to persevere.
An hour later, Qing Mu finally finished refining all the medicinal power of the Soul Ascension Pill, and a wave of energy emanated from Qing Mu's body.
Yes, Qing Mu has broken through again. Now Qing Mu is a level 49 Soul Master.
A moment later, Qing Mu opened her eyes and said to the two people in front of her, "The effect is good. My level has increased by one level. The only problem is that the energy is a bit violent. Some people with weaker constitutions may not be able to withstand it. You can improve it in this aspect."
"violent?"
After hearing Qing Mu's words, Yang Wudi seemed to be deep in thought.
Indeed, he was focused on enhancing the effect without considering whether the body of the person taking the medication could withstand it.
It should be noted that Qing Mu's physique appears to be significantly stronger than others of the same level. If even he says it's somewhat ferocious, then it is indeed quite formidable.
"Kid, are you feeling alright?"
At this moment, Dugu Bo looked at Qing Mu and said with some worry.
Qing Mu shook her head. "It's alright. Although the medicine is potent, it's not enough to harm my body. Besides, the wood spirit power I added also played a role."
The power of the Wood Spirit is the power of the Wood Spirit Seed, containing immense life force. Although it cannot bring the dead back to life or heal the wounded, it can still provide some repair after the effects of the medicine have taken hold.
That's good.
Upon hearing Qing Mu's words, Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief. Qing Mu's future was limitless, and it would be a great loss if something unexpected happened because of a single pill.
In the days that followed, the research and development of the Soul Ascension Pill progressed in an orderly manner. Yang Wudi and Dugu Bo improved the medicinal formula, made it into pills, and finally Qing Mu refined it into a pill.
However, unlike Yang Wudi, who was almost obsessed, Qing Mu and Dugu Bo both had their own things to do.
...
Below the mountain peaks outside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
How about here?
Dugu Bo stopped and asked Qing Mu, who was standing to the side.
Dugu Bo naturally did not refuse Qing Mu's request to fight. He was also very curious about the true combat strength of this genius, Qing Mu.
After all, Qingmu's level has increased so quickly, so he might lack combat skills. He could take this opportunity to give Qingmu some pointers.
However, Qing Mu looked around and shook his head. "Let's go a little further out. My ultimate move has a long range and might affect the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye."
"Alright, let's go a little further out." Dugu Bo didn't question it, but simply accompanied Qing Mu as they continued walking outside.
If other Soul Masters told him that their battles were so far apart that they would affect the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, Dugu Bo would absolutely not believe it.
But Qing Mu is different. Qing Mu's existence is already outrageous enough, and compared to that, everything else is nothing.
After walking several hundred meters more, Qingmu stopped. "This is about enough."
After he finished speaking, Ivysaur beside Qing Mu began to emit a white light, its body grew several times larger, and the flower on its back opened up.
In an instant, Ivysaur evolved into Venusaur.
Dugu Bo watched this scene with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He hadn't expected that Qing Mu's martial soul could evolve further.
Moreover, judging from the aura emanating from Venusaur, it has undoubtedly become much stronger than Ivysaur in form.
Subsequently, four spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, appeared around Qing Mu. The first and third spirit rings lit up almost simultaneously, the light spheres rose into the sky, and the green waves entered the ground.
With the help of the sunny weather and the grassy terrain, Qingmu and Venusaur's auras grew stronger once again.
Dugu Bo did not stop Qing Mu's pre-battle preparations, because he was also eager to see what level Qing Mu could reach when he was at full strength.
"Venusaur, use Solar Beam on Dugu Bo!"
Qingmu entered a state of telepathic connection and issued an attack command to Venusaur.
"Cry!!"
Venusaur's eyes narrowed, and a large number of white light spots converged towards the center of the flower on its back.
The next moment, a huge white beam of light, compressed to its limit and accompanied by a scorching heat, burst forth from the heart of Venusaur's flower and shot straight toward Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo was startled when he saw the solar flames emitted by Venusaur and immediately activated his martial spirit to defend himself.
Suddenly, his spirit rings lit up, and a deep green shield appeared in front of him, blocking the attack of the blazing sunlight.
Even so, the moment they made contact, Dugu Bo knew that he had underestimated the attack.
This is no attack from a Soul Master! You could tell him it's a killing move from a peak Soul Saint and he'd believe you!
This startled Dugu Bo. He had only known that Qing Mu was stronger than others of the same level, but he never expected that Qing Mu's strength would be this great.
