After Xu Yan broke through to the perfection of the Innate Realm, he returned home to instruct his parents in cultivation, then travelled to the capital of Qi Country, teaching his maternal grandfather and the others how to cultivate.

Under the nourishment of the medicinal pills, Guo Rongshan’s body has greatly improved. Cultivating martial arts has become easier for him, and he’s now not far from the martial arts beginner stage.

Meanwhile, Guo Yunkai has already stepped into the energy and blood state.

The development of martial arts in the border areas has begun to accelerate, and more martial artists will appear soon.

Li Xuan is looking forward to the feedback he should get as the number of martial artists increases.

■Your disciple Meng Chong has broken through to the perfection of the Golden Body of the Sun, and your Golden Body of the Sun has been significantly strengthened.”

Meng Chong had made a breakthrough.

However, the feedback from the Golden Finger was not a breakthrough, but rather, a significant increase.

Although his state hasn’t changed, he had strengthened.

Observing the wonderful nurturing of the Daylight Golden Body through the acupuncture points, Li Xuan sighed inwardly, realizing that Meng Chong had started to cultivate blades within the acupuncture points and had laid some cards up his sleeve.

As Meng Chong was improving, so would Xu Yan, and even more so.

Li Xuan assumed Xu Yan’s “Vista Sword Intent” had already nurtured a formidable skill set behind the scenes.

Li Xuan glanced at his Sword Intent and it suddenly made sense to him.

“My cultivation of martial arts purely through physical training, alchemy and medical treatment is an integrated system, without any conflicts and in flawless harmony, just because they are the paths of cultivation I created myself. Thus, can they be derived from the same origin?” Li Xuan pondered. -This means, no matter how many martial arts techniques I create, they can all stem from the same source. Eventually, will this lead to a transformation into a stronger martial arts technique?” Li Xuan curiously wondered.

However, creating a martial arts technique is not an easy task, let alone finding someone who can comprehend it.

■■Once the Golden Finger can be used, let’s try to create a new martial art technique again,” Li Xuan decided.

Concentrating his mind, he noticed a faint golden light again – the location of the Golden Finger. Now he was not far from seeing the complete Golden

Finger.

According to his estimations, unless something unforeseen happens, he should see the Golden Finger and take advantage of it after reaching the fourth stage of martial arts, beyond the realm of understanding the mysterious.

While Xu Yan returned home and Meng Chong was devoted to his own cultivation and teaching Shi’er the art of swordsmanship, Zhou Ying saw this and sought guidance from Meng Chong as well.

Su Lingxiu was busy researching the alchemy formula to prepare for producing the elixir of the Celestial Drop Marrow.

What a valuable medicinal pill that enhances both aptitude and talent!

Of course, for people with extraordinarily strong talent, it might not be very useful.

Take her Green Wood Spiritual Body for example- even if Celestial Drop Marrow was successfully produced, it would not enhance her own talent, after all, this Celestial Drop Marrow is nothing more than a fifth-rank spiritual medicine.

Its ability to enhance talent is limited.

However, for Zhou Ying, Shi’er and the others, it can greatly enhance their talent.

A month goes by.

Zhou Ying is at the perfection of the Qi and Blood Realm, not far from the Innate Realm.

However, she needs to settle down for a while. After all, such a rapid improvement in cultivation, relying on medicinal pills, is inevitably a bit superficial.

Shi’er has reached the completion of the Qi and Blood Realm.

Su Lingxiu is not far from the small achievement of the Innate Realm. This month, she refined several batches of medicinal pills. She has already figured out the formula for the Celestial Drop Marrow pill, and all that’s left is to activate the furnace for the alchemy.

A stalk of sixth-grade spiritual medicine was liquefied in Su Lingxiu’s hands, and the essence was carefully distilled from it. Then, she carefully put the essence into a jade bottle and sealed it.

Then she started refining another stalk of sixth-grade spiritual medicine.

In order to make sure the refining process of the Celestial Drop Marrow goes smoothly, Su Lingxiu can only extract the auxiliary herbs in advance. So during the refining process, she only needs to extract the Celestial Drop Marrow, then fuse it and refine it into a pill.

The failure rate will be significantly reduced.

After days of research and practice, her alchemy skills are now refined.

Seeing this, Li Xuan estimated that it was almost time to teach Su Lingxiu the Void Alchemy Technique. After she understands the Void Alchemy Technique, she can use it as a foundation to comprehend higher levels of the Void Alchemy Technique.

Just as Su Lingxiu was preparing to start refining the Celestial Drop Marrow, Li Xuan called her over.

“Master, do you think I will be able to successfully refine the Celestial Drop Marrow?”

Su Lingxiu asked nervously.

A fifth-grade spiritual medicine is very precious, and there is only one. Naturally, she felt the pressure and was a bit nervous.

“Alchemy, particularly when it comes to high-grade pills and new kinds of pills, requires calm and peace of mind. As long as you concentrate and do your best, that’s all that matters.

“If you lack confidence before even starting alchemy, and can’t keep calm and peace of mind, then don’t do it. When you don’t even have faith in yourself, the chances of failure are even higher.”

Li Xuan said calmly.

Because the Celestial Drop Marrow is so valuable and there is only one, Meng Chong was chased by a Great Grandmaster for a period of time in order to obtain this spiritual medicine.

For this very reason, Su Lingxiu was afraid of failing the refining process, which would let down her two Senior Brothers. Therefore, she was under tremendous pressure.

“Master, I understand!”

Su Lingxiu nodded solemnly, having gained some understanding.

“Your alchemy skills are already perfect, your hands-on alchemy is now mature. Today, 1 will pass on the Void Alchemy Technique to you.”

Li Xuan nodded and spoke out.

Su Lingxiu was overjoyed, “Thankyou, Master!”

“The Void Alchemy Technique uses the void as the furnace to smelt the medicinal pills. This is the foundation of the Dao of Alchemy. You are to use this as a base to grasp the Dao of Alchemy.

“You should not be limited to the Void Alchemy Technique, but delve deeper, realizing that in addition to medicinal pills, Dao can be other things too…

Li Xuan spoke seriously, reminding her to comprehend deeper, using the Void Alchemy Technique as a base to comprehend stronger alchemy techniques.

Su Lingxiu nodded solemnly and said, “Master, 1 understand! 1 will not limit myself. I understand that what you are passing onto me is an understanding that most of it is up to the disciple to comprehend..”
