Staring at the smooth, round, and richly fragrant Tier 4 pill, the Tiger Strength Pill, in his hand, Mo Yu couldn't help but reveal a slight smile.
A Tier 4 pill was incredibly valuable. Even though Mo Yu had seen many high-tier pills in his previous life, since his rebirth, he had only encountered two Tier 4 pills, both of which had come from Frank's hand.
After all, only alchemists of Tier 4 and above could refine Tier 4 pills. In the entire Jia Ma Empire, there were likely no more than twenty or thirty Tier 4 alchemists.
The Beast Soul Blood Fusion Pill demonstrated how much more potent Tier 4 pills were compared to lower-tier ones. The Tiger Strength Pill in Mo Yu's hand was no exception.
Mo Yu remembered that in the original story, there was a Tier 4 pill called Beast Strength Pill, which was used by a student from the Jia Nan Academy during a battle with Xiao Yan.
The Beast Strength Pill was also a Tier 4 pill that granted the user the temporary strength of a magical beast. While the Tiger Strength Pill and Beast Strength Pill shared similar effects, their nature was fundamentally different.
The Beast Strength Pill only provided temporary magical beast-like strength, making it a trump card during combat. Once the effect wore off, the user would return to their original power level.
In contrast, the Tiger Strength Pill offered a permanent increase in strength equivalent to that of a tiger, with no time limit. However, while its effects were more lasting, the strength boost it provided was only a quarter of that of the Beast Strength Pill.
In essence, both pills had their merits. Though they differed in their utility, as Tier 4 pills, neither was unworthy of its value.
For Mo Yu, the Tiger Strength Pill was undoubtedly more suited to his current needs than the short-term boost provided by the Beast Strength Pill.
His body-refining technique, Thunder Body Technique, had been neglected due to his recent preparations to destroy the Mo family, resulting in only twenty thunder patterns. However, now that he had the Tiger Strength Pill, he expected his thunder pattern condensation would speed up significantly.
Mo Yu estimated that if he fully refined the medicinal power of the Tiger Strength Pill, he could likely condense at least ten more thunder patterns. After all, as a Tier 4 pill, the energy it contained was a tremendous boon for someone at his current Dou Shi level.
With that thought, Mo Yu didn't hesitate any longer. After stepping out of his room and instructing Qing Lin not to disturb him for the next two days, he shut the door and began his cultivation.
Hearing his instructions, Qing Lin obediently nodded.
Though she had followed him across the border to the Mu Lan Empire, she showed no complaints. Ever since Mo Yu saved her from the Mo family, she had sworn to follow him forever.
Besides, Qing Lin was originally a servant of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group, which had close ties to the Xiao family. This made her feel it was only natural to serve Mo Yu.
Back in his room, Mo Yu took out the Tiger Strength Pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
The pill melted the moment it entered his mouth. Before Mo Yu could even react, waves of pure energy surged through his throat like a roaring river, coursing into his meridians with a thunderous momentum.
The moment the energy entered his meridians, Mo Yu's hands, which were forming a cultivation hand seal, suddenly trembled. He felt a fiery sensation, as if he had just consumed tiger essence, spread throughout his body. Simultaneously, along with this heat, his physical strength increased rapidly.
"Could this Tiger Strength Pill truly be refined from the essence of a tiger's entire being?" Mo Yu thought, a flash of understanding crossing his mind. He quickly focused his thoughts inward and willed the silver Dou Qi within his energy cyclone to surge through his meridians, where it collided with the energy from the Tiger Strength Pill.
"Boom!"
A muffled sound echoed from within, and Mo Yu let out a low groan, his face flushed red. His hand seals changed as he began guiding the now-tempered energy along the pathways of the Thunder Body Technique cultivation technique.
As he circulated the technique, the ferocious energy contained within the Tiger Strength Pill caused his body to swell slightly.
With his body expanding, Mo Yu could almost hear the excited roar of the tiger within the pill's energy. However, before he could react further, the energy surged through his meridians like a speeding train, forcibly pushing its way through.
Countless streams of fine energy split off, surging through Mo Yu's meridians in all directions under his gaze. Some of these streams even barged into meridians Mo Yu had never touched before, crashing through them with reckless force.
As these meridians were broken through, Mo Yu could feel an explosive surge of power coursing through his body.
Inside him, countless streams of energy barreled through his previously inaccessible and narrow meridians with overwhelming momentum, like a roaring river. The energy flowed not only through his meridians but also caused his exposed skin to emit a faint yellow glow.
Meanwhile, changes were also occurring in Mo Yu's right arm.
Focusing intently, and with the aid of the pill's medicinal power, Mo Yu followed the cultivation method of the Thunder Body Technique. To his amazement, three new thunder patterns condensed directly on his right arm.
In less than an hour, three thunder patterns had formed, leaving Mo Yu in awe of the power of a Tier 4 pill.
However, Tier 4 pills were generally intended for Da Dou Shi or Dou Ling powerhouses, and yet here Mo Yu was, a mere six-star Dou Shi, consuming one. It was undoubtedly a luxurious indulgence, and naturally, the effects were extraordinary.
After condensing three thunder patterns, Mo Yu didn't stop his cultivation. The energy contained within the Tiger Strength Pill was immense, and he had only refined less than twenty percent of it. A vast amount of medicinal power still awaited him to extract.
Thus, for the next two days, Mo Yu remained on the flying bird, which served as their transport. Although they made two brief stops along the way, Mo Yu never left his small room, continuing to absorb the energy of the Tiger Strength Pill while practicing the Thunder Body Technique.
Following Mo Yu's instructions, Qing Lin informed the other two girls about his cultivation, and they refrained from disturbing him.
Lin Fei muttered a few complaints about Mo Yu hiding away to cultivate, while Xue Mei, gazing at the approaching Western Wasteland City, grew increasingly serious, her cold expression tightening.
On the third day, Mo Yu finally opened his eyes within the room.
Exhaling a deep breath, he stood and stretched his body, clenching his fists. Feeling the overwhelming power flowing through him, a smile curved on his lips.
The Tiger Strength Pill had indeed lived up to its reputation as a Tier 4 pill. After consuming it, Mo Yu could clearly sense how much his strength had increased—he could likely go head-to-head with a second-tier magical beast relying on strength alone.
Not only that, but the number of thunder patterns on his right arm had also increased by ten, reaching a total of thirty!
In just a few days, Mo Yu's combat power had surged once again.
However, just as Mo Yu was reveling in his progress, several startled exclamations from outside caught his attention.
"That voice… is it Qing Lin?"
