Chapter 104: Cultivation in Pain

The bathing pool in Meng Chuan's cave abode.

"Lord, the water has already been heated up," said Steward Liu respectfully.

"Remember, keep it hot. Don't let the water turn cold," instructed Meng Chuan. "Alright, you can leave."

"Yes." Steward Liu retreated.

The bathing pool was above a hypocaust. There were servants in the hypocaust that burned the firewood to maintain the water temperature.

Meng Chuan picked up a yellow gourd and pulled off its stopper. He poured a large amount of mixed powder into the bathtub. It was a medicinal herb that had been grounded and mixed up long ago. It was used as an aid for his Eighth Refinement. After emptying the gourd, the pool's clear water immediately turned light green. He then took out three jade bottles and poured out a pill from each. He crushed the pills and scattered the remains in the water.
