A bone tempering pill was retrieved from the bottle by the Demiurge-Flawed Ten and given to the disciples.

There was barely any reaction when the first medicinal pill was taken. Every disciple merely felt their body tremble gently. Based on their current cultivation base, they could easily endure the potency of the bone tempering pill without it being too much of a challenge. The only reaction they had was the slight noise that emanated around their bones.

It was after that soft noise that Yun Yang's flat voice rang out for the second time. "The Emerald Cloud Path, the second step."

It was the meridian expanding pill.

As this medicinal pill was consumed, a few of them looked somewhat discomforted. That was all to it, however. As the medicinal strength worked its way out, those who looked pained recovered with ease. Sun Mingxiu and others whose cultivation base were higher looked reposed at this stage, passing it without any issue, while Shi Wuchen and the rest who sat cross-legged behind their disciples took no action.

To Shi Wuchen and the other men, their disciples would need to face and go through the first four steps themselves no matter how excruciating those stages were. What they were here for was the last step, the end to the entire process; too early intervention would cause an adverse effect.

Yun Yang's eyelids trembled slightly.

The meridians of the disciples were absorbing the medical potency of the meridian expanding pills and fusing droplets of the force into their entire beings and each meridian stream… Yun Yang's unique divine senses acutely detected that the powerful medicinal strength was gradually attaching to the disciples' meridians as the meridian walls began to thicken and expand.

Slowly, the potency of both the bone tempering pill and meridian expanding pills combined and expanded the children's meridians twice their usual size. This caused their faces to flush as each vein popped to the surface of the skin and glowed a light green.

Commonly, this was a good sign. Cultivators wished for their meridians to be as broad as possible as it eased their cultivation of mystical Qi at the same time of dissolving external mystical Qi that attacked them. In spite of it, the expansion of these disciples' meridians was currently accomplished with external medication, thus rendering them incredibly weak and unstable.

In a timely manner, Shi Wuchen and the other Demiurge-Flawed Ten reminded themselves almost simultaneously, "Be one with your spiritual self, do not lose your breath and circulate your mystical Qi to ninety-nine cosmic orbits to stabilize your Qi and meridians."

The ten disciples did as they were told, circulating the mystical Qi they already had in their expanded meridians. Due to the increased size, the circulation speed sped up several times, feeling strange to the children… The unfamiliarity lessened after the ninety-nine cosmic orbits, however, and the children were confident in the actions.

Simultaneously, their Qi and lifeblood grew thicker from their meridian expansion. The blobs of white fog that gathered above their heads slowly manifested into a shadow that looked like a flower bud…

"The Emerald Cloud Path, the third step."

It had come to the marrow cleansing pill!

All the disciples reacted strongly once they ingested the pill. Sun Mingxiu who was the first to digest the medicinal pill was the first to show a reaction; his body oozed a liquid that resembled black grease and he spat a mouthful of foul-smelling purplish bruised blood after a while.

Yu Chenghang was the next to go through a similar situation as Bai Yexing following a beat later. Subsequently, all the other children excreted a large number of impurities.

The hall was putrid, the stench revolting, but no one frowned in the slightest bit.

It was a necessary step! This process involved eliminating all the impurities from head to toe, including those in the blood, flesh, bones, marrow, and lifeblood, leveraging on the combined potency of the first three pills.

The disciples' current bodies were the cleanest and purest they could be. Similarly, whatever that was discharged from them was also the grimiest excretion.

A quarter of an hour later…

"The Emerald Cloud Path, the fourth step."

The pure energy pill! This pill was actually the medicinal pill that they had taken the last time, the one that could add a hundred years of cultivation base to them.

All top ten disciples maintained their state. The slowest one took only an hour to complete the absorption before their breathing returned to normalcy. Amidst the thick fog above each disciple's head, a flower bud was now completely formed. It was a marvel to behold.

About ten breaths' time passed quietly before Yun Yang's voice rang again calmly and muted, as if from a distance, "Wuchen, all of you are to deliver your mystical Qi and merge it with the mystical Qi of the children. Do not do anything reckless, just maintain the current state. We want the kids' mystical Qi to stay stable."

Without any delay, the Demiurge-Flawed Ten did as they were told.

"The Emerald Cloud Path, skyrocket to the Emerald Cloud, the fifth step!"

"The Emerald Cloud Pill!"

The last medicinal pill was pushed into the disciples' mouths.

…

Dong Qitian had left the hall out of anger but he did not go far. He stood outside silently to carefully watch over the lifeblood movement in the Central Peak' hall and the powerful auras that slithered around. Suddenly, a strong force of Qi and blood soared right through the hall's ceiling into the sky!

"It has begun."

Dong Qitian's slowly closed his eyes as he sighed softly.

He had indeed acted his way…

The eruption of such mystical Qi carrying the force of lifeblood meant that the Emerald Cloud Pill had come into play. There was no turning back!

As the energy exploded respectively, there would only be more to come - the force of their minds would explode before the force of their divine senses and force of spirits did as well!

It was stepping on the Emerald Cloud, one step across a full level. Of course, it would not be limited to the improvement of the mystical Qi cultivation base. It was an overall enhancement of a cultivator! How could it be considered a step into heaven if it were only the promotion of the mystical Qi cultivation base?

"It's only just begun." Worry and faint sorrow clouded Dong Qitian's eyes.

Yun Yang, you'll regret this!

…

Sun Mingxiu sat cross-legged, feeling every part of his body at rest. There was an indescribably powerful feeling that was quietly stirring like it would rush out anytime. It was during such a juncture that a medicinal pill was slipped into his mouth.

He knew that it was the Emerald Cloud Pill, the last step and the crux to the pill-aided elevation. Perhaps the adverse effect from the first four pills was too weak for him that he slightly let his guard down. In spite of it, what followed was entirely different after the Emerald Cloud Pill melted in his mouth like the previous pills.

Just as the pill entered his mouth, it melted into a sweet liquid before instantly turning into a sensation of incredibly ferocious potency. It felt like throwing a piece of red-hot burning coal into a ball of snow!

Gliding down his throat, the force rushed its way in. It was an instantaneous feeling, but it felt like his organs were on fire.
