Chapter 268: Worldly Spirit Things
In these two books, in addition to the most common herbs and spirit beasts, there were also many magical items that Ling Xiao had never seen or even heard of before.
For instance, White Cloud Great Master had once said that humans potentials were not fixed. They could be improved via external items, such as spirit pills, but those pills were very hard to obtain.
This book recorded a spirit herb called a Treasure Fruit. Although its name was not remarkable, this fruit could slowly increase ones potential until it reached a divine-grade treasured body!
There were other strange spirit herbs, spirit things, and spirit beasts.
For instance, there was an herb called Phoenix Herb. After a martial artist took it, he or she would get a chance to rise from the ashes.
Then, there was a certain immemorial fierce beasts blood. Once it was taken or absorbed, it could trigger special changes in the blood, and a martial artist would gain the terrifying ability of that immemorial fierce beast.
This made Ling Xiao think of the golden dragon bloodline within his body. He had always guessed that this thing to be a certain immemorial golden dragons blood, but he had been unable to confirm it.
However, today, he finally got confirmation from the <Spirit Beast Illustration>, and his worries disappeared.
It was not just limited to that: the book also recorded which herbs could assist in awakening his golden dragon bloodline, which was very helpful to him.
Moreover, in addition to medicinal herbs and spirit beasts, there were some spirit things. For instance, items that could preserve an intact immemorial martial artists lifeblood or contain an immemorial martial artists incomplete soul.
After taking pills refined using these things, it was possible to obtain an immemorial martial artists martial soul or abilities.
For example, martial souls like Moonlight Pagoda, Blood Transformation Divine Blade, Golden Buddha, Turbid Heavenly Treasure Mirror, and so on.
Also, abilities like Three Heads and Six Arms, Summon Wind and Rain, Big Dipper Evil Star Change, and so on.
Ling Xiao had never thought that a martial artist could actually become so powerful to contend with heaven and earth.
These two books had opened up a new world. It made him even more determined to study well under Hall Master Old Yang.
In the past, he had had some mixed feelings. He had just felt that the work was easier and that no one would suppress him here.
But now, his mentality had completely changed.
Alchemy and martial arts should be practiced side by side. There was no distinction in importance.
In any case, his talent and comprehension was good enough; moreover, he also had <Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique>. Therefore, he could deal with many things at the same time.
Speaking about it, <Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique> was already unable to keep up with his cultivation.
After all, <Shadow Cultivation Secret Technique> was only a quasi-gold-grade supplementary martial art. At best, it could help him cultivate to Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein. Once he stepped into the Transcendent Realm, he had to find a better supplementary martial art.
Senior Sister Lan, many thanks for today. If you hadnt let me read these two books, then I truly wouldnt have known that this profound world was so wonderful and that there are so many things to look forward to.
Ling Xiao was truly grateful.
Although he knew that Lan Yuer had intentionally been making things difficult for him, he indeed had received benefit from it, moreover, no small one.
Therefore, there was no need to hold grudges.
Did you finish reading everything?
Lan Yuer was surprised. She didnt believe that he had already memorized those two books. Merely, with that speed, it was impossible to even read them properly.
Finished.
Ling Xiao nodded.
Disgust flashed through her eyes.
She hated dishonest people the most, but she said nothing. In any case, Ling Xiao was not her disciple. Whether he liked to lie or brag, she let him be.
Ling Xiao also saw the disgust in her eyes, but he didnt explain anything. After all, he had no interest in her; moreover, he was not her disciple. Therefore, he didnt care about her.
Afterward, Ling Xiao didnt stay in the library but directly went to Medicine and Beast Mountain.
From noon to the next days night, he practically lived on Medicine Mountain and Beast Mountain.
He spent the first half on Medicine Mountain and the second half on Beast Mountain.
After all, the knowledge in the books was just pictures and text. How could it be as amazing as reality?
He wanted to compare his memory with the real medicinal materials to understand them even more clearly.
He had to say that the accuracy of those two books was very high, but there were still some omissions.
Naturally, it might not be an omission but rather that the alchemists ability was limited, so they were unable to find those things.
But Analysis and Deduction, Ling Xiaos special ability from the Landscape Martial Soul, could detect these omissions and find a way to deal with them.
He believed that, if he were to refine pills, then they would definitely be more perfect than those of others at the same level.
With his understanding of medicinal herbs and spirit beasts, it was very simple to learn <Fire Control Technique>.
As for <Basic Medicine Principle>, <Basic Alchemy> and <Basic Medicine Refining Technique>, they were not worth mentioning.
Naturally, if he had any problems, he would still ask Lan Yuer.
He didnt care whether she liked him or not; the things he learned were for himself.
At first, Lan Yuer dealt with Ling Xiao casually.
But later, she began to take the initiative to find Ling Xiao to discuss things.
She had made a shocking discovery. In some aspects, Ling Xiaos understanding of medicinal herbs and spirit beasts was actually more thorough than hers, and he also had a more comprehensive understanding.
This discovery made her completely discard the pride in her heart.
Anyone who had an understanding of Lan Yuer knew that although she was indeed very prideful, she had always been a bit crazy about studying.
This point was somewhat similar to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao stayed up all night. He wanted to make the best use of his time to consolidate everything he had learned.
Learning didnt mean that one should learn continuously. One should consolidate first and thoroughly understand it too. Otherwise, half-baked knowledge might do great harm.
The next morning, he stood up and rubbed his legs. Today was his public challenge with Yang Cheng and Li Anle.
He had almost forgotten it because of his hard work last night.
Originally, he had thought to rest well before the battle, but it was fine.
Because Hall Master Old Yang was absent, Ling Xiao went to look for Lan Yuer to ask for leave. This Senior Sister was strictly impartial and incorruptible. If he left without asking for leave, who knew what kind of rotten fruit he would have to eat after returning.
No, you are not allowed to go!
Lan Yuer decisively refused his request.
Why?
Ling Xiao asked in confusion.
First, you havent finished Hall Master Old Yangs master. Second, as a Senior sister, I dont want to see you go and challenge those two.
Lan Yuers answer was very concise.
Ling Xiao smiled and said: First of all, I have already achieved the requirements of Hall Master Old Yang; secondly, those two are just people of small importance, I dont care about them. The reason I challenged them is to gain more resources and to frighten other people so as to avoid them coming to look for trouble with me.
Ling Xiaos reply was also resolute and decisive without hesitation.
