Ancient Thunder Dragon Spell

Inside Pill Pavilion, Lei Yang stood at the door, his mouth opened in an "O" shape, the dense pill fragrance that could not be dispelled immediately assaulted his senses, causing him to immediately become intoxicated, being deeply shocked by the layout of the first floor of Pill Pavilion.    

    

All he could see were neat bookshelves, which were filled with a myriad of books. It was simply a sea of books, and there was even the fragrance of pills coming from the depths of the sea of books.    

    

Through the bookshelves, one could not see the pill furnace within, but through the bookshelves, one could faintly hear the rumbling of thunder within the pill furnace.    

    

This was Lei Yang's first time entering the Pill Pavilion, so Lei Yang's reaction was completely within Lei Tong's expectations. When he first entered this place, his reaction was even stronger than Lei Yang's.    

    

Lei Tong did not disturb him, instead, he let Lei Yang stand there and enjoy himself for a while. After he looked around, he opened his mouth and said at a moderate pace: "Let's go, it's as you wish. Since there's nothing urgent, I'll bring you to take a walk around the first floor of Pill Pavilion to let you experience the culture of Pill Dao, I'm not sure what Inspector Elder would do?"    

    

Lei Yang was immersed in the pill fragrance, and was thinking of the same thing, but after hearing Lei Tong's words, his eyes immediately lit up.    

    

"Uncle Lin, don't make fun of me. This is naturally very good, then I'll have to trouble Uncle Lin! " Lei Yang revealed a bashful smile and said politely.    

    

But if Zhang Qing was present, seeing Lei Yang's smile, he would definitely know, and this fellow must have developed some sort of greed.    

    

The two of them walked side by side in the dark alleyway made from bookshelves, making Lei Yang feel as if he was traversing through a maze. The alleys and twists and turns made by the bookshelves were very similar in many places, if he walked in alone, he would definitely be lost.    

    

But luckily, Lei Tong was able to lead the way, so Lei Yang only cared to follow along and read the books to his heart's content.    

    

Just like that, they walked and stopped. Outside, the Pill Pavilion Stone Tower wasn't really that big. Just walking to the center took a whole two hours.    

    

Of course, in the middle of it, Lei Yang had the time to stop and flip through the books, but even so, according to Lei Yang's judgement, the inner space of this layer was definitely not the same as the outer space.    

    

Following in Lei Tong's footsteps, they finally passed through the sea of books and arrived at the center of the first floor.    

    

Looking at the central area of the first floor, Lei Yang could see that the central area was not any smaller than the small plaza in front of the Pill Pavilion that was releasing the pellets.    

    

In the center of the room was a smooth stone column, roughly five meters in diameter. Around the stone column were dozens of rooms separated by bluestone. Each room had a pill furnace about three meters long. Clearly, this was the pill room.    

    

At the moment, there were countless Pill Pavilion disciples going in and out of the place, occasionally going into the sea of books, and occasionally bringing back spirit herbs or pills from other Pill Pavilion disciples. Lei Yang's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, to the extent that he was actually feeling envious, and was even more shocked by the size of the space in the first level of Pill Pavilion.    

    

"You must have seen it, this Pill Pavilion Stone Tower is ancient and mysterious. Ever since the establishment of the villa, it has always been here, and to be honest, this Pill Pavilion is a world-shaking treasure." Lei Tong took this opportunity to speak into Lei Yang's ear. This caused Lei Yang to confirm his guess, and the shock on his face became even more intense.    

    

"Alright, follow me!" Lei Tong was the first to walk out, and suddenly spoke with a serious tone.    

    

Lei Yang did not make a sound, and continued to observe the path that led Lei Tong through the pill house while walking straight to the center of the stone pillar.    

    

There were a total of four pill rooms around the stone pillar. These pill rooms were clearly much larger than the ones outside, and there seemed to be a formation protecting them.    

    

Lei Tong walked to the front of a pill room with the word "winter" written on it, took out a badge and stuck it on the door. With a creak, the door of the pill room opened along with the array formation, and the two entered the pill room together.    

    

"There are a total of four pill rooms. They are known as the Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter pill rooms. The pill rooms are called the Four Seasons Garden, and the pill rooms are called the Four Seasons Garden." As Lei Tong strode into the pill room, he introduced the place to Lei Yang.    

    

The interior of the pill room was about fifty square meters wide and neat. There was a twenty feet large pill furnace in the center of the room, and rumbling sounds continuously could be heard from within.    

    

The pill furnace had many lines on it, and because it had been soaked in medicine for years, it had turned a dark brown color. The pill furnace emitted a strong medicinal aroma, as well as the feeling of time settling onto it.    

    

Lei Tong did not say anything, but walked to the prayer mat in front of the pill furnace and sat down cross legged, and made a hand sign, pointing to the pill furnace.    

    

Not long after, a multi-colored pill rose up from within the pill furnace. The pill seemed to have a seven-colored auspicious light, and at the same time, a burning sensation spread out, but Lei Tong created hand seals and placed it inside the furnace.    

    

"Sigh, this Rainbow Pill is still lacking a little bit. It seems like Patriarch Sigh ?"    

    

Come, come and sit here! " Lei Tong talked to himself for a while before calling Lei Yang over to sit beside him.    

    

"Today, I walked around the first floor of Pill Pavilion. I wonder how he feels?" Lei Tong asked after Lei Yang sat down.    

    

"Very good!" Lei Yang changed from what he said just now to words that were like gold.    

    

"Ah, just these?" Lei Tong was startled, and asked again.    

    

"Un, that's all. I feel good about it!" Lei Yang continued to nod his head, and said seriously.    

    

"No, I mean, you have read so many books on the medicine in Pill Dao. Do you have some insights in this area, or some other ideas?" Lei Tong said somewhat unwillingly, and obvious disappointment appeared in his eyes.    

    

Lei Yang continued to stay calm, and even deliberately scratched his head to think for a long time. He acted as if he did not understand what Lei Tong was saying, and shook his head: "Hehe, I didn't!"    

    

The reason why he did not speak directly was also because he wanted to ask about Lei Yang's insights. He did not expect that after going back and forth, he still did not seem to be able to explain himself, so he simply replied: "Forget it, forget it, I'll just speak frankly. I'm asking if you have any intention of joining the Pill Pavilion."    

    

Actually, Lei Tong had always had his eyes on Lei Yang's steady and heavy personality. When Lei Yang had just returned last night, Lei Tong had this thought in his mind. Today, he was thinking of finding an opportunity to chat with Lei Yang and invite him to join the Pill Pavilion.    

    

Lei Tong even made an exception and allowed him to enter the first level of Pill Pavilion, bringing him around as he tried to sense the culture of the Pill Dao, as he wanted to induce Lei Yang to take the initiative and increase his status as Pill Pavilion. After all, Lei Yang's identity was different now.    

    

But at this time, seeing that he had not succeeded, he was also going all out. He had to be direct, he really did not want to lose out on such a talent, because he felt that Lei Yang would definitely have some accomplishments in pill refining.    

    

"Oh, so that's how it is. Is Elder's invitation?" Lei Yang looked like he had come to a realization but was secretly delighted in his heart.    

    

This seemingly sixteen or seventeen year old youth, had a high perception, and it was likely that he had long since surpassed Lei Tong, especially after experiencing the cruel tribulations of the Secret Realm. The current Lei Yang was no longer that immature youth from back then, but had become even more experienced and steady.    

    

In reality, he had already planned to go to the Pill Pavilion on the way home. Although he had accidentally walked into the Pill Garden, ever since Lei Tong's appearance, his warm introductions, and even brought him to visit the first floor of the Pill Pavilion, he had already guessed that Lei Tong had a goal in mind.    

    

As he expected, in the end, when they arrived at the pill house, Lei Tong finally found the truth. Thus, he pretended to be ignorant and fought with Lei Tong for a while. In truth, he had been waiting for Lei Tong to invite him. Once he grasped the initiative, he could take the opportunity to negotiate the terms.    

    

"Of course it's an invitation. What, are you still looking down on my Pill Pavilion?" Lei Tong glared and pretended to be angry.    

    

"Don't dare, don't dare, Uncle Lin is too serious, but if you want me to join the Pill Pavilion, you have to agree to two conditions?" Lei Yang's face looked bashful as he said that carefully. While touching the storage ring on his finger, he observed Lei Tong's expression.    

    

"Heh, you stinking brat. You even mentioned the conditions. Tell me, what are the conditions?" Hearing that, Lei Yang had the intention to join the Pill Pavilion, his originally disappointed heart suddenly became spirited again.    

    

"I heard that Pill Pavilion has an ancient manual called Pill Attraction. Can you lend it to me to take a look? The second thing is that I want a pill concocting room in the spring, summer, autumn and winter to serve as my pill refining room. What do you think?" Seeing that Lei Tong allowed him to say it, Lei Yang quickly stated his conditions without any hesitation.    

    

"Hahaha, what a clever little trick, why did I feel like you were pretending to be deaf and buying stupidity earlier on, it turns out that you have a plan in your heart, you even know a book like Pill Drawing Arts, it seems that you have done your homework well, you have completely prepared yourself!" Only now did Lei Tong realize that this guy was actually hiding such a small hidden intention in his heart. However, he was not angry about it, but instead started to admire and admire Lei Yang even more from the bottom of his heart.    

    

"We cultivators of the same generation should have such wisdom." Lei Tong secretly praised him in his heart, but then his expression became stern, and said to Lei Yang once again: "Pill Drawing is the treasure of the Pill Pavilion, and I, as an elder, can bestow you with this, but you have to first read a few books on medicine in the first floor of Pill Pavilion, because Pill Drawing is actually just some simple pill formulas, if you do not have enough knowledge of medicinal herbs, it is impossible for you to understand it.    

    

But for the second condition, I might have to disappoint you. It's not that I don't agree to it, but it's just that this will depend on each of you. "    

    

"What do you mean?" Lei Yang asked in confusion.    

    

"You don't know, as an elder of any other pill room in Pill Pavilion's first floor, I can do whatever you want, but I can't do these four.    

    

"Because these four pill rooms can only be comprehended after you have reached a certain level of knowledge on medicinal plants. Also, you can't casually borrow tokens from others, as once you lend them to others, the tokens will lose their usefulness." Lei Tong did not hide anything, and explained each and every one of them to Lei Yang.    

    

"Oh, I see!" After Lei Yang made clear of the situation, he stood up and cupped his fists as he bowed and was about to leave.    

    

Lei Tong quickly stood up and asked: "Then is this a success or not?"    

    

But before Lei Tong could finish speaking, Lei Yang spoke out first: "Uncle Lin, it is junior's honor to be able to join the Pill Pavilion. Junior has already decided on this matter, thank you Uncle Lin for your consent today!"    

    

After Lei Yang finished speaking, he felt a little guilty, so he turned around and rushed to the Pill Pavilion's gate, leaving a bewildered Lei Tong behind.    

    

After a while, Lei Tong's half angry laugh sounded out in the pill room, "Stinking brat, you actually tricked me, but since you were able to join the Pill Pavilion, even if I had to play with you, it would be worth it!"    

    

"Don't forget, from tomorrow onwards, you will be coming to Pill Pavilion to learn about medicinal herbs!" Lei Tong was so happy that his head was about to faint. He did not care whether Lei Yang could hear him or not, he shouted at Lei Yang from afar.
