Others could be consumed as medicine to increase a soul pet's soul power cultivation and speed.

Nevertheless, they were all extremely costly.

On top of that, it was also relatively difficult for Wang Che to refine pills at the moment.

Without any soul power, he couldn't catalyze the growth of basic spirit flames or use any alchemy techniques.

However, this did not mean that it was completely impossible for him to refine pills.

Having lived a long life as a great cultivator at the Immortal Ascension realm, he was naturally proficient in all sorts of skill sets.

Before this, he had already confirmed that all the medicinal herbs he knew of in the cultivation world couldn't be found anywhere in this world.

After all, different civilizations made different discoveries, and as such would go on to invent different products.

However, that did not stump Wang Che in the slightest.

Pill refinement at its core simply involved fickle changes in energy, since medicinal ingredients themselves were created from the energies of heaven and earth.

With the right combination of ingredients, the tempering of spiritual flames would create new and powerful forms of energy.

Though this process was often found in the history books of various worlds, they all involved different developments and acclaim.

Technological civilizations, for instance, referred to it as chemistry.

In the magic civilizations, it was called alchemy.

...

Realistically speaking, it would be impossible for Wang Che to refine powerful medicinal pills at present.

It would require both a high level of cultivation and rare materials, which he did not possess.

"I only need to boil some food that can help strengthen these threads. This won't be difficult..."

Wang Che immediately sprung into action.

Seeing as the green caterpillar's diet only consisted of simple food like leaves and branches, he narrowed his search to such medicinal ingredients.

In the end, Wang Che spent the entire day looking for leaves and plants in the many different soul pet markets.

During his search, he came across more than 30 types of leaves.

Most of them were leaves that plant-type soul beasts had shedded as they grew.

Then, to confirm their effects, Wang Che tried to consume the leaves himself.

Naturally, he was cautious to exclude poisonous ones from his search.

"Iron Needle Leaf, this feels quite hard. It's very tough and has a sharp sting. The medicinal effect is strong as well..."

"Thousand Pines Leaf, this one isn't as tough. It has a gentle taste and mild medicinal properties..."

"Flower Fruit Leaf, the leaf itself is soft to the touch, but it's very rigid. It produces a mild medicinal effect when put into the mouth..."

Without divine senses, Wang Che couldn't tell the leaves' properties from a single glance.

His only option was to try them one by one.

However, unlike ordinary people, he was able to analyse the medicinal effects of the leaves quite easily from tasting them.

'Legend says that there once lived a Shennong who had tasted a hundred herbs during ancient times. I may very well have just done the same...'
