Chapter 8 - 7 ’Leaving Fire Skill

Chapter 8: Chapter 7 'Leaving Fire Skill

A few days later at night, Mr. Xu led a young man in his twenties into the Everlasting Observance.

The young man was named Jiang Yan whose grandfather was a ninth-grade martial artist and owned a martial arts school. Unfortunately, his grandfather died prematurely, and because there was no ninth-grade martial artist to rely on, the family gradually got annexed by the Zhang family.

Now, although Jiang Yan has some talent, he has been targeted by the Zhang family and has struggled with his livelihood, even unable to obtain some medicinal materials for cultivation. Thus, he had no other choice but to seek an ally.

It was from this point that Mr. Xu had made contact with him.

Seeing Pei Xuanjing, the youngest and most talented master in the city, Jiang Yan was full of earnest as he clenched his fist, "I am at the end of my rope and will forever be grateful to Master Guan for his assistance. I'll repay your kindness in the future."

Pei Xuanjing slightly shook his head, "It is merely a give and take."

He wasn't interested in establishing a deep connection with the other party. It was just a trade, each of the two parties taking what they needed.

Upon witnessing Pei Xuanjing's distant demeanor, Jiang Yan was not upset and took out the family heirloom "Leaving Fire Skill" and a notebook of insights from his arms.

The moment Pei Xuanjing received it, a prompt echoed in his mind.

"Discovered Taoyun item. Begin refining?"

He suppressed this voice for a moment and said to Jiang Yan, "You should first recuperate your body in the coming days, and I will study your cultivation techniques so as to best assist you."

Jiang Yan nodded while Mr. Xu escorted him to a guest room in the Everlasting Observance. Pei Xuanjing then picked up the skill book and the notebook to study them.

The "Leaving Fire Skill" is not a high-level cultivation technique. It can only support martial artists up to the eighth grade, which is slightly inferior to the "Yi Wood Skill" that the Everlasting Observance taught.

But for Pei Xuanjing, it was already quite good. He guessed that after refining the accumulation of Taoyun from this skill and the notebook and adding the remaining Taoyun in the Observance, it would suffice to support his next simulation.

After several days, with the aid of the simulator, Pei Xuanjing had nearly realized the insights of the "Leaving Fire Skill" and the notebook. Although he didn't dare to say he understood it totally, he already had some ideas about how to help Jiang Yan break through.

Some things remain incomprehensible until they are understood.

However, once you step in, you find that it's incredibly simple.

At present, Pei Xuanjing was a seventh-grade martial artist who had fully cultivated his muscles, bones, and skin. He was able to make sense of the hard-to-understand key points in the breakthrough of a ninth-grade martial artist from a higher perspective.

In the following days, Pei Xuanjing refined the Taoyun while guiding Jiang Yan in cultivation.

Jiang Yan had good aptitude to begin with. With Pei Xuanjing's guidance and plentiful resources, he was able to understand the key breakthrough points in just three months. The only thing he needed now was to take some tonic drugs to make up for it and to prepare energy for the breakthrough.

After finishing all of this, Pei Xuanjing let him continue to cultivate on his own, and he began to focus on refining the Taoyun.

Half a year later, Pei Xuanjing had once again accumulated enough Taoyun to conduct two continuous simulations.

"Taoyun: 2303 points."

"Would you like to use the Life Simulator? Each usage consumes 1000 Taoyun points."

As his strength advanced, the Taoyun consumption also increased. It was only because his current strength was increasing and he was refining Taoyun faster that he didn't need more time.

Casting aside all distractions, Pei Xuanjing did not hesitate and chose 'yes'.

"Among the fifty paths of the Great Tao, the Forty-Nine Heavenly Paths remain! Therefore, all beings in the world have a thread of life!"

At eighteen years of age: Already a seventh-grade martial artist, you realized that all your hard cultivation was in vain. This small city could not provide any help for your cultivation, so you decided to leave.

At twenty years old: After leaving the small town, by relying on the strength of a seventh-grade martial artist and the swordsmanship that integrates all realms that you had mastered through a year of grinding, you made quite a name for yourself, known as a genius.

At that time, there was news that a blessed land, a forbidden place, had emerged. Encouraged by some friends, you went with them.

Three months later, you walked out from the forbidden place. You survived, but you were still terrified.

You never expected that such a fierce struggle would occur in this session of the forbidden place. All kinds of powerful geniuses were constant, fighting each other for a rare item.

Although you didn't obtain the rare item in the forbidden place, you accidentally entered a Dan Palace and acquired an elixir formula.

You didn't have time to use these elixir formulas yet, but the news leaked out, attracting many people to chase and kill you. You killed several people desperately. Although you were seriously injured, you eventually escaped alive.

After two months, using the elixir formula at hand, you finally healed your injuries. Although you have the elixir formula in your hand, the hunt for you is still ongoing. Not daring to find a Master Dan, you chose to lie low.

At twenty-one years old: You studied the elixir formula in your hands and finally figured out that the formula was called "Marrow-cleansing Pill", an elixir developed by a Master Dan 500 years ago. It can aid martial artists in cultivating their organs and marrow, and it also has an effect of replenishing and restoring the roots and origins.

However, due to the passing of 500 years, some of the names of the needed medicinal materials might have changed or even disappeared. You had no choice but to put this matter aside for a while, understanding that this elixir formula could not be used in the short term.

At twenty-five years old: After two years of hard cultivation, you were still unable to break through. During a search for spiritual medicine, you offended a young genius who easily defeated you. You were seriously injured, and your foundations damaged. From then on, you dedicated all your attention to the elixir formula.

At thirty years old: As you learned how to refine elixirs, you realized "Wood Generates Fire" and promoted the third stage of your "Leaving Fire Skill". You had a feeling that if you could combine these two skills, you could break through to the sixth grade. Now, all you needed to do was to consolidate your foundation, and you could breakthrough.

At thirty years old: You concentrated on learning, researching the method of refining the elixir on your own, gathering spiritual medicine, and finally refined a furnace of "Marrow-cleansing Pill". After testing the pill with animals, there were no abnormalities in the little animals. Therefore, you took the elixir at ease, only to die instantly.

"This life ends."

You were actually poison-killed by your own refined elixir.

Pei Xuanjing rubbed his temples. Although he was not killed by bandits this time, he still thought his simulated death was somewhat unlucky, even much worse than the previous times he was killed by bandits.

"The simulation is over. You can choose to keep one of the following rewards."

"One: Combat experience at thirty-five years of age."

"Two: The third level and insight of the 'Leaving Fire Skill'."

"Three: Exchange 3000 Taoyun points for an ancient 'Marrow-cleansing Pill' formula."
