Chapter 179 — Chapter 179 Enhanced Pill of Concealment
5 min read ·
"E-Elder Shan!" Xuan Wuhan and Min Li quickly stood up from their comfortable seats and bowed to her once they realized who she was.
"Disciple Xuan and Disciple Min? What are you two doing here?" Elder Shan unconsciously asked them.
"We’re here to watch them practice," Xuan Wuhan said.
"Oh? But I thought you wouldn’t be back at the sect for another week? Did something happen at home?" Elder Shan looked at Xuan Wuhan with raised eyebrows.
"N-No... Nothing happened. I just felt like coming back earlier," Xuan Wuhan said with a somewhat stiff smile on her face.
"You? Hahaha... Now that’s something I didn’t expect to hear from someone renowned for spending more time outside the sect than inside."
Elder Shan laughed for a moment before turning to look at Yuan and speak, "Come with me for a second, Disciple Yuan. I have something for you."
Yuan nodded and followed her into the house.
"Here, this is an enhanced Pill of Concealment. It’ll suppress your cultivation for an entire realm."
Yuan nodded and accepted the pill.

"What about the effects of the current pill? What happens if I swallow two pills with similar effects?" Yuan asked her a moment later.
"Right, that’s what this pill is for—"
Elder Shan retrieved another pill and showed it to him; it was a clear white pill without any special auras or designs on it.
"This is the Pill of Cleansing. It’ll erase all pill effects that are currently affecting your body. As for your second question, it depends on the pill. If you swallow two Pill of Concealment, you might get a stomach ache at worse. However, if you swallow two very powerful pills, your body might explode, so you must be cautious of what you eat and not eat pills carelessly."
"E-Explode? I haven’t heard that word in a while..." Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice before looking at the pills in his hand.

After swallowing the Pill of Cleansing, a notification appeared.
[You have consumed Pill of Cleansing]
[The effects of ’Pill of Concealment’ has been removed]
Yuan could feel his aura exploding outwards after consuming the Pill of Cleansing.
However, that aura didn’t last very long as Yuan swallowed the Powerful Pill of Concealment a few seconds later, and his peak Spirit Warrior aura lowered until it resembled someone at the peak Spirit Apprentice level.
"Great, it worked perfectly." Elder Shan nodded with a prideful look on her face.
Yuan raised his eyebrows at her and said, "You mean you weren’t certain of its effects?"
Elder Shan chuckled and said, "Of course I’m certain— but there is no such thing as a perfect pill— at least I have never seen one before."
"Anyway, let me listen to some of your zither music before I leave. I’m very intrigued by your abilities in music." Elder Shan then said to him.
"Okay." Yuan nodded.
They left the building and returned to the backyard shortly after.
"You’re going to be staying here, too?" Xuan Wuhan asked Elder Shan after noticing that she was taking a seat.
"Might as well since I am already here," Elder Shan nodded.
A few moments later, Yuan returned to his seat behind the zither and turned to look at Fei Yuyan, "Should we continue what we’ve been doing?"
Hearing his words, Fei Yuyan quickly shook her head and said, "I-It’s okay. Since my Master has heard of my zither play many times before and she is mostly here for your performance, you can play by yourself."
Yuan didn’t think too much of Fei Yuyan’s words and nodded.

After taking a deep breath, Yuan began playing one of Fei Yuyan’s songs on the zither.
"T-This is..." Elder Shan’s eyes immediately widened just a few seconds into Yuan’s performance, as she only needed to see Yuan’s graceful movements and listen to the first few music notes to recognize his talents.
’He’s already on another level compared to Disciple Fei! Did he really just learn the zither not long ago? This is really hard to believe even with his godlike talents. Unless his comprehension ability works on other things besides cultivation techniques, which would be beyond heaven-defying...’
A few minutes later, after finishing his first song, Yuan proceeded onto the second song after a brief pause.
Elder Shan closed her eyes to enjoy the music.
’I have not felt this relaxed in many, many years...’ Elder Shan thought to herself as she unconsciously dozed off.
Sometime later, Yuan stopped playing the zither after his fifth song, and to his surprise when he turned to look at Elder Shan, she was completely asleep with a peaceful expression on her face.
"Hmm?"
When the ladies there noticed Yuan’s look, they turned to look at Elder Shan as well.
"S-She’s asleep?" Fei Yuyan’s eyes widened with shock.
"Should we wake her up? I would feel guilty waking up someone with that kind of sleeping face," Xuan Wuhan said.
"Oh? But you don’t feel guilty for waking me up last night?" Fei Yuyan glared at her.
"This and that are two different situations." Xuan Wuhan shrugged in a nonchalant manner.
"You little—"
Fei Yuyan raised her voice, accidentally waking Elder Shan.
"Hmm? Did I fall asleep?" Elder Shan rubbed her eyes before recalling that she was not inside her own room.
"Uhhh... I..."
Elder Shan’s face immediately blushed, and then she cleared her throat loudly before speaking in an awkward voice, "T-That was a great performance, Disciple Yuan. I haven’t felt this relaxed for a long time. Maybe I should visit you again in the future when I’m having trouble sleeping. Anyway, I just remembered that I have some work I need to finish... See you disciples later..."
