Legend of Heaven Defying Dao - C64
Ling Yan smiled. “Do you still want to guess?” The moment you exited the cave, your third master’s expression told me. There’s also one more important thing, your cultivation is only at the early Aurous Core stage, which is much weaker than your master’s late Nascent Soul stage. Don’t you think that your questions are a bit … ”
Zhao Yu was stunned. How could he have neglected such a simple question?
The woman laughed heartily and cast a sidelong glance at Zhao Yu, as if to say: “Even if you’re an elder, you still made such a childish mistake with me. You have the greater part of the problem, so I won’t lose face.”
With a smile, disciple Xiao Lixuan knelt down and paid her respects, “Disciple Xiao Lixuan pays her respects to Great Master and Third Senior Master!”
Ling Yan waved his hand and sent out a stream of energy to help her up as he laughed, “Enough!” He had already teased Uncle Master, there was no need for him to be so polite! “Hahaha!”
Zhao Yu asked, “Lixuan, where’s your Master? Why didn’t she personally come out to greet the Grand Master? ” Zhao Yu’s expression was slightly displeased. This was the first time Big Brother had personally come to see her, but this girl had actually only sent a disciple to welcome her. She had to properly talk to her later.
“Xiaoqian must be in a critical moment. Let’s go in first!” Ling Yan was able to deduce the general situation from the words of his juniors. Normally, she was a decisive person. However, she was a person who understood etiquette. Otherwise, she would not be doted on by her juniors for a long time.
Xiao Lixuan explained, “Master is currently in the midst of refining medicine and must control the temperature at all times. Just now, when he noticed someone coming, he guessed that Master is here, so he sent disciple out to welcome him. Please forgive me, Uncle!”
Ling Yan laughed. “Uncle Master isn’t that sort of stingy person. Hur Hur, let’s go!” I also want to see how the pill is made. ”
“Senior Masters, please!” Xiao Lixuan turned around and flew towards the cave entrance. When she neared the cave entrance, she lightly waved her hand and injected a few strands of true energy into the cave entrance. The small cave entrance instantly turned into a two meter wide cave entrance.
Ling Yan laughed. “This little restriction cloth is very ingenious! Third brother, you’re the one who did it, right? ”
“Yes, everything here was created by Fourth Brother and I!”
Ling Yan could hear the hardworking tone in Zhao Yu’s words. “Everything?” This place was simple and straightforward, what other mysteries could there be? Ling Yan surveyed his surroundings. Other than the entrance to the cave, there seemed to be nothing else.
“You’ll know when you get in! I’m most afraid of coming to this place, other than working here as a laborer, I can’t get any benefits at all! ” Zhao Yu muttered as he entered the cave.
Ling Yan laughed. “Is it really that easy to raise a pill master?” If you guys don’t do anything, then who will! ”
After passing through the tunnel, what appeared before Ling Yan was a huge cave. The floor of the cave was at least two thousand square meters, with a dark, misty ceiling, and a distance of about twenty to thirty meters from the ground. The whole cave seemed deep and spacious, giving off the impression of a deep and mysterious cave.
However, the entire space did not seem to be dark. The hundreds of high-powered light bulbs hanging from the ceiling of the cave made the entire space look like a shadow. Although it was not very bright, it allowed the naked eye to clearly see everything in the cave.
Upon entering, Ling Yan’s attention immediately fell to the center of the cave floor, which was illuminated by hundreds of powerful light bulbs. There was a one-meter-tall, three-legged, two-eared cauldron, with a blue tongue of flame puffing out from the bottom of the cauldron.
When the three of them arrived beside the tripod, the woman turned around and smiled at Xiao Lixuan. Then she kneeled down towards Ling Yan and Zhao Yu and said in a clear voice, “Disciple Li Shuang greets Great Ancestor and Third Ancestor.” This woman referred to herself as Martial Ancestor and was most likely Xiao Lixuan’s disciple. She was around thirty years old and was wearing white casual clothes and jeans. Her appearance was elegant and dignified.
Ling Yan softly supported her up and whispered, “Stand up, there’s no need to be so polite!” Li Shuang stood up and bowed once more before retreating behind the person on the ground.
Ling Yan came to the side of the person sitting on the ground and squatted down to take a look at this new junior sister. Ji Xiaoqian was dressed in jeans and jeans, sitting cross-legged on the ground with a straight waist. The only difference was that his face looked slightly tanned, and his appearance was ordinary. It seemed as if he had gone through a long period of vicissitudes.
Ling Yan was sizing up Ji Xiaoqian when he saw Ji Xiaoqian’s expression change. Ji Xiaoqian blinked her left eye, then returned to her original state, continuing to control the fire with both of her hands.
A crisp female voice resounded in Ling Yan’s mind: “Elder brother, please forgive me. Right now we are in the drug condensation phase, Xiao Qian has no time to double pay respects. Please don’t blame me, elder brother!”
Ling Yan smiled and nodded to show that he understood, then called Zhao Yu over. He sat down cross-legged and scanned the inside of the cauldron with his Spiritual Sense. At this moment, the temperature of the three kinds of True Flames was more than two thousand degrees. Under Ji Xiaoqian’s control, they had maintained a constant temperature and were constantly roasting the True Flames in the cauldron, letting the liquids in the cauldron be stored, and then condensing them into pills.
The fire was still burning, and the liquid in the cauldron was still boiling. The only difference was that the liquid seemed to be less than before, but that was just a small part of it. If one did not use their spiritual sense to scan it, it would be difficult to detect.
Ling Yan transmitted his voice to Zhao Yu, “Third brother, how long can little Qian last like this?” Constant output of true essence was a very strenuous task. The true essence within the body of a cultivator was not limitless, and continuous output of true essence would eventually run out. At that time, not only would one’s body become extremely tired, one’s mind would also become depressed and their body would become extremely weak. Once she recovered, her skills would be much purer than before. This was also the reason why although Ji Xiaoqian was still young and one of the last to enter the sect, her cultivation was still able to surpass Zhao Yu and Duanmu Yin, who were chasing after Wu Qi. Although talent was key, hard work was even more important!
Zhao Yu replied with a sound transmission, “Looking at her appearance, she should be able to hold on for another day or so. If the cauldron will explode, that day will also happen!”
After waiting for a while and not hearing Ling Yan’s question, he continued, “Because during this day, if you want the medicinal liquid to condense into a pill, you must increase the intensity of the fire. Otherwise, the medicinal liquid will not be able to condense the pill, but if you don’t control the fire well enough, and if you overdo it, the furnace will break apart or explode from the high temperature.”
Ling Yan rested his chin on his hands and thought for a while. The success rate of refining the pellet would still be very low if this continued, so he sent a voice transmission to Ji Xiaoran, “Xiao Qian, what do you think your success rate will be? Will the success rate be higher than before? ”
Ji Xiaoqian was silent for a long time. Then, she finally replied, “Big brother … I don’t know … Maybe!”
What was this? Ling Yan rolled his eyes and sat up straight. “I’ll help you. If you fail, I’ll help you refine the cauldron again!”
Not caring about Ji Xiaoqian’s reaction, Ji Hao stretched out his right hand and turned his zhen yuan into heat according to the method described in the jade eye manual. A wisp of green flame emerged from his palm.
Zhao Yu said in surprise, “Big Brother, you can’t be thinking of helping Xiao Qian refine pills, right?”
Ling Yan chuckled and asked, “What do you think?” “Hahaha!” The first time Ling Yan controlled the three types of primordial flames, he felt extremely proficient, just as if he was familiar with it from time to time. Ling Yan was overjoyed. However, what he did not know was that the flames he controlled far exceeded the level of the Three Flames of Primordial Fires.
Zhao Yu did not continue to speak and just waved his hand towards Xiao Lixuan and Li Shuang, signaling them to back off. Zhao Yu did not continue to speak, but waved his hand at Xiao Lixuan and Li Shuang, indicating them to back off. Xiao Lixuan and Li Shuang saw Grand Master Bo interfere, so they didn’t say anything. They could only look at each other and bitterly smile before retreating behind Zhao Yu to avoid trouble.
As a precaution, Ling Yan carefully controlled the flame when sending it to the bottom of the cauldron, preventing it from suddenly rising in temperature. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the cauldron, he slowly let the fire spread.
Ji Xiaoqian’s voice sounded in Ji Xiaoqian’s head, “Have you ever tried concocting pills before?” Ling Yan shook his head and did not reply. This was the first time that his internal energy had evolved into a bright flame purely from his heart. After releasing the fire, he could control the temperature, but this was his first time trying it out. The green flame gradually fused into Ji Xiaoqian’s True Fire. Ling Yan was trying to raise the temperature when Ji Xiaoqian’s voice rang in his head, “Keep the temperature of the fire under control, I’m getting out of here!”
Startled, Ling Yan quickly transmitted his voice back, “I’m still not sure about the fire’s distribution. If you withdraw now, I’ll lose my guidance. You don’t want this cauldron anymore?”
Although the quality of this cauldron was not that high, Ling Yan had discovered with his Spiritual Sense that there was actually a small Eight Trigrams Formation inside the cauldron. Ling Yan had a rough understanding of the usage of the Eight Trigram Formation, as it could be used as a protective warm pill in a cauldron, but with the existence of the Eight Trigram Formation, the flames at the bottom of the cauldron could not be evenly distributed. The functions of the eight trigrams formation, such as dry, mixed, separated, shocked, Xun, Kan, Gen, Kun, were all different, and the temperature of the flames distributed by the pill refiners were also different.
The corner of Ji Xiaoqian’s mouth curved slightly. He ignored Ling Yan and took his hands back. He moved five meters away from Ling Yan and closed his eyes to rest.
Ling Yan immediately controlled the fire at the bottom of the furnace, not daring to move as he thought to himself: “How could this girl do that?” “Even though he said that he would let go, this time, it’s better that he hangs here!” After swearing, he suddenly understood in his heart. He could not help but feel regretful. Why did he say that he would help her refine the cauldron again? Isn’t this girl doing this on purpose? She just wants me to burn the cauldron so that she can refine a new furnace for her. Hehe, I won’t let you do as you wish.
Ling Yan realized why Ji Xiaoqian suddenly retreated, and thought to himself that Ji Xiao Qing was really cunning. Ji Xiao Qing was not discouraged. She controlled her green flame according to her impression of Ji Xiao Qing.
As time passed second by second, Ling Yan figured out some tricks and was secretly delighted. He attempted to gradually raise the temperature of the furnace – since the two divinities were the main flame, he would first start with these two divinities.
Suddenly, Ling Yan’s heart skipped a beat as he thought, ‘This is bad, the position of the sundae is the wind. It’s to help the fire, not to control the main fire.’ He had yet to recite it, but the controlled green flame trembled for a moment, and with a loud explosion, pieces of the cauldron immediately shot out, spreading the fire. Ling Yan only had time to wave his hand and place a defensive barrier before the fire engulfed him.’
