To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

When we arrived at the research site of the Body Tempering Blood Pool project, we saw Wu Muyan and Gu Qingcheng and other top miscellaneous art masters of Qingyun Sect gathering around a brand new Body Tempering Blood Pool and conducting serious research.

Sun Yi walked over and saw that it was a second-level body-tempering blood pool, which should have been just refined. The blood pool looked thicker than the first-level body-tempering blood pool, and the patterns engraved on the surface also looked more complicated.

At this time, the body-tempering blood pool was in operation. The second-level essence blood formed a vortex in the blood pool. Lightning arcs flashed in the center of the vortex, and strands of green demonic power were tempered out.

But a moment later, a violent force suddenly appeared, and a crack suddenly appeared on the surface of the Body Tempering Blood Pool. The next moment, the Body Tempering Blood Pool stopped working.

"Alas, it still doesn't work. The body-tempering blood pool I refined this time still can't withstand this violent power of thunder." Gu Qingcheng frowned and sighed.

"I didn't expect that this second-level body-tempering blood pool would be so difficult." Old Yan frowned.

"There is no problem with the formation. The main problem is that the Body Tempering Blood Pool cannot withstand the thunder power that tempers the essence and blood. We must find a way to improve the material of the Body Tempering Blood Pool." Wu Muyan stared at the blood pool seriously.

"But we've already used the best second-tier materials to refine this Body Tempering Blood Pool. Do we need third-tier materials?"

"It's not impossible to use third-level materials, but the cost will be a bit high." Gu Qingcheng stared at the body-tempering blood pool in front of him with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Sun Yi was very happy to see Gu Qingcheng, Wu Muyan, Yan Lao, Wantong, Xu Fang, Wang Yang and others all looking like researchers.

As long as they maintain this state, the Qingyun Research Institute in his plan will be truly on track, and more research will definitely be done in the future.

"What's wrong? Have you encountered any unsolvable problems?" Sun Yi walked over with a smile on his face.

Hearing the familiar voice, everyone looked up at Sun Yi. When they saw Sun Yi, they seemed to have found their backbone and smiles appeared on their faces.

"Master, you are finally here. Come and take a look." Old Yan came over impatiently and pulled Sun Yi to the edge of the body-tempering blood pool.

"Master, look, this is the second-level body-tempering blood pool we refined. It's used to purify the demonic energy within the essence and blood of second-level demonic beasts."

Sun Yi stood in front and carefully observed this body-tempering blood pool. It was similar in structure to the first-level body-tempering blood pool, but it was a little more complicated.

Sun Yi nodded: "The structure of this Body Tempering Blood Pool is similar to that of a first-level Body Tempering Blood Pool. Have you verified the theory?"

Wu Muyan nodded: "We have already thoroughly verified the integration of the lightning array, as well as the combination of alchemy, talisman making, and weapon refining. There are currently no theoretical problems."

"So what's the problem?"

"When activating the second-level Body Tempering Blood Pool, a powerful thunder force will erupt when tempering the essence and blood. This violent thunder force will directly act on the Body Tempering Blood Pool. We have tried many methods, but the Body Tempering Blood Pool cannot withstand the impact of this force." Wu Muyan recounted the story in detail.

Gu Qingcheng, standing by, also frowned as she looked at Sun Yi with a furrowed brow. "We in the Weapon Refining Hall have already taken out the best second-grade materials and tried five times. The Body Tempering Blood Pool we have refined has reached the ninth level of the second-grade, but we still can't withstand this violent force of thunder."

"If that doesn't work, then we can only try using third-order materials. Although the possibility of success is high, the cost will inevitably increase a lot."

Sun Yi nodded. "Let's not use the third-order materials yet. Let's study and see if we can find a solution using second-order materials. We'll definitely need a lot of second-order body-tempering blood pools in the future, so we'll try to keep the cost down."

"By the way, is there any problem with the first-level Body Tempering Blood Pool? Have you arranged for mass production? How is the confidentiality design?"

Wu Muyan, who was standing beside him, quickly spoke up: "After our optimization, the first-level Body Tempering Blood Pool has basically taken shape. We have already arranged for the Equipment Refining Hall, Alchemy Hall, Formation Hall, and Talisman Hall to process each component separately. We are still using an assembly line method to ensure that the core technology will not be leaked."

"In addition, we have designed a method to prevent the leakage of technology in the finished Body Tempering Blood Pool. Even if a great cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage gets hold of our first-level Body Tempering Blood Pool, they will be unable to research it."

Sun Yi nodded in satisfaction. "This Body Tempering Blood Pool is one of our Qingyun Sect's core technologies. It must not be leaked. Even if we sell the Body Tempering Blood Pool to others in the future, we must keep the core technology firmly in our own hands and not let outsiders know about it."

"Don't worry, Master, we will definitely keep it confidential." Wang Yang assured Sun Yi, patting his chest.

Sun Yi nodded: "Okay, let's continue studying the second-level body-tempering blood pool. Let's refine another one and try it out. Let me see where the problem lies."

Sun Yi no longer needs to worry about the first-level body-tempering blood pool, but he must solve the problem of the second-level body-tempering blood pool as soon as possible, because currently a large number of foundation-building cultivators in Qingyun Sect are waiting for the second-level body-tempering resources.

If the time drags on too long, the sect will not have enough second-level body-tempering resources, and then they will have to go to the Seven Stars Tower to buy high-priced body-tempering resources.

Afterwards, Sun Yi took Wu Muyan and the others to continue researching the second-level blood pool. For a full seven days, Sun Yi and the others did not rest for a moment, constantly trying new materials and new methods. In total, they had refined more than ten second-level body-tempering blood pools and wasted a lot of precious second-level materials.

Just when everyone was about to give up on the second-level materials and prepare to try to use the third-level materials to refine the second-level body-tempering blood pool, Sun Yi suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

The reason why this second-level body-tempering blood pool always fails is entirely because when the second-level body-tempering blood pool is purifying the essence and blood of the second-level monster, the violent power of thunder will bombard the second-level body-tempering blood pool, and the second-level body-tempering blood pool simply cannot withstand this violent power of thunder.

They used many kinds of top-level second-level materials in succession, but still could not withstand the violent power of thunder.

When Sun Yi saw the new body-tempering blood pool shattered because it was unable to withstand the power of thunder, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to his mind.

"Since the second-level body-tempering blood pool can't withstand this violent thunder power, why don't we just let it go and channel it out directly!"

"Guide them out? How to guide them out?" Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Sun Yi curiously, not understanding what Sun Yi meant.

"Hurry up and bring some Thunder Yuan Stones over!" Sun Yi suddenly called out to the disciple next to him who was responsible for providing materials.

"Thunder Stone? Master, what do you want this first-level material for?" Gu Qingcheng looked at Sun Yi with confusion, and the others also showed puzzled expressions on their faces. Thunder Stone was just an ordinary first-level material and was not even within their consideration.
