Chapter 973 Learning to Alchemy
early morning.
Xiao Yi felt refreshed after finishing his training.
"It's still not as comfortable as dual cultivation..."
Just as Xiao Yi was muttering, there was a knock on the door.
"Brother Yi, the maid sent by Miss Ji is here."
Yuan Wenbin said outside the door.
"So early?"
Xiao Yi got dressed, got out of bed and went outside.
"Mr. Xiao, Miss asked me to take you to the back mountain."
The maid bowed.
"Now?"
Xiao Yi was a little surprised.
"Yes."
The maid responded.
Xiao Yi was a little confused, but didn't think much about it. He followed the maid along a remote path and came to the back mountain.
"Mr. Xiao, the lady is waiting for you inside."
The maid pointed to an inconspicuous entrance and said.
Xiao Yi frowned, feeling quite confused. This entire journey, including this entrance, seemed somewhat shady.
"Why do you still feel a little excited?"
Xiao Yi muttered and walked through a passage.
As a stone door opened, Ji Yue's figure appeared not far away.
Today, Ji Yue had waist-length hair and her clothes were obviously lighter, as if she was wearing only a thin layer of gauze, but you couldn't see through anything at all.
Even so, Xiao Yi, who had just woken up, was still filled with certain thoughts in his mind, and his energy and blood spread throughout his body, especially rushing to the middle and lower part of his body.
"What are you going to do to me so early in the morning? Should I obey you or not?"
Xiao Yi fantasized and wanted to pounce on her.
Ji Yue saw Xiao Yi approaching and waved his hand.
Swish!
Two alchemy furnaces appeared and landed on the ground.
Above the alchemy furnace, a strange color bloomed, filled with extremely rich spiritual energy.
"You want to teach me how to make pills?"
Xiao Yi was stunned and felt extremely disappointed.
"Otherwise, what do you think I am waiting for you here for?"
Ji Yue was puzzled.
"doing what?"
Xiao Yi murmured in his heart, how nice it would be to do something he loves.
"Well... that's right, it's too early. I was still dreaming about getting married, and you called me to make the elixir."
Xiao Yi made up a story.
"…Why don't you go back to daydreaming?"
Ji Yue crossed her arms. This guy didn't behave properly at all.
"Forget it, let's get down to business."
Xiao Yi suppressed some of the desire in his heart and calmed down.
Ji Yue didn't say anything more and took out a large amount of medicinal herbs from the storage space.
"this is for you."
Ji Yue handed an ancient book on alchemy to Xiao Yi.
"Master Ji is really willing to give up."
Xiao Yi muttered to himself as he flipped through the book, and he had already discovered the precious value of this ancient book.
“You are strong, which will be a great support for alchemy, so of course your starting point should be higher.
In my opinion, you just need a guide to make alchemy, so that you can avoid detours and risks. I will have no reservations about this."
Ji Yue said slowly.
Xiao Yi nodded, stopped talking nonsense, and concentrated on learning.
He knew very well that alchemy was not just alchemy in a simple sense, it was also a form of cultivation, and the effect was better.
“The key to alchemy is the control of medicinal materials.
Not only does it require sufficient internal energy, but it also requires the ability to control it freely. Otherwise, it is easy to get caught up in it, which can result in injuries and backlash, or even lead to insanity and even death."
Ji Yue looked serious and subconsciously moved closer to Xiao Yi, explaining the key points in the ancient book.
Xiao Yi smelled the medicinal fragrance on Ji Yue's body and couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
But in this situation, he suppressed some thoughts in his mind and took it all in.
Afterwards, Ji Yue began to teach Xiao Yi the "practical operation".
"This alchemy furnace is one of the two alchemy furnaces in my collection. I give it to you."
Ji Yue looked at the alchemy furnace in front of Xiao Yi and said.
"Then...thank you Master Ji, I will definitely keep it well."
Xiao Yi bowed.
Ji Yue blinked her beautiful eyes. This guy was finally serious.
"Should we have a teacher-apprentice banquet?"
Xiao Yi suddenly looked up.
"...The fact that I'm teaching you to make pills cannot be made public for the time being, especially within Medicine God Valley."
Ji Yue instructed.
"You are afraid that the Cai family and the Ye family will jump out to oppose it, right?"
Xiao Yi asked with a smile.
"Right now, it's better to have less trouble than more."
Ji Yue didn't explain too much.
"I see."
Xiao Yi didn't ask any more questions and started to make the elixir.
As for Xiao Yi, Ji Yue took care of every detail and taught him almost hand in hand.
Because of alchemy, the distance between the two people, both in reality and in emotions, is rapidly narrowing.
"It turns out that when this pill is refined to a certain level, the internal energy will no longer be under one's control!"
Xiao Yi frowned slightly.
"This is a long learning process. Even if you reach your father's level, if you are refining ancient elixirs, there will be some risks and problems. You need to be absolutely careful."
Ji Yue explained, reaching out one hand and holding Xiao Yi's right hand.
In an instant, the internal energy that was madly pouring into the alchemy furnace slowed down.
"Something still seems wrong."
Seeing Ji Yue was about to let go, Xiao Yi hurriedly said.
Seeing this, Ji Yue held Xiao Yi's right hand tightly again.
Looking at Xiao Yi again, he held Ji Yue's hand.
"you!"
Ji Yue realized something and quickly let go. It was obvious that this guy was already fine.
"Ahem...something was wrong just now. Master Ji is really amazing."
Xiao Yi pretended to be serious.
"Do you still want to continue studying?!"
Ji Yue was slightly angry.
"of course."
Xiao Yi said hurriedly.
"Then be quiet!"
Ji Yue was in a bad mood, but her heart beat faster.
Xiao Yi nodded rapidly and also noticed Ji Yue's slight panic.
Next, the two continued to refine the elixir. Ji Yue noticed how fast Xiao Yi learned and was amazed.
This talent is almost like the ancestor forcing food into his mouth.
She was especially shocked when Xiao Yi succeeded in refining the elixir for the first time.
"This guy...really can't make an elixir?"
Ji Yue muttered to herself.
But she was also sure that Xiao Yi was not pretending, he just had a natural talent... and learned extremely quickly!
"There are a few residual pills. Does that count as a failure?"
As Xiao Yi spoke, he put away several pills from the furnace.
Ji Yue: ...
She really wanted to pretend to say "yes", but she didn't want to really hit Xiao Yi.
"This rate of residual pills is already very low. Your first time refining pills has reached the level of a first or second-grade alchemist in Medicine God Valley."
"Oh."
Xiao Yi nodded.
"It seems that it still failed."
Ji Yue: ...
"Haha, after all, my target is you."
Xiao Yi shrugged.
Ji Yue was stunned. What does that mean?
"I mean, I have to catch up with you in alchemy."
Xiao Yi explained.
"continue."
Ji Yue didn't say anything more. Why did she feel disappointed after hearing this explanation?
Xiao Yi withdrew his gaze, cleaned the furnace, and continued to refine the pill.
The day passed quickly, and Xiao Yi still did not stop until night. The elixirs he refined had even reached the level of a second-grade alchemist.
Ji Yue's expression changed completely, how could this be possible!
In just one day, he reached a height that many alchemists would dream of reaching after years of hard work!
Just one more step and you will be a third-grade alchemist. Is that far from being a fourth-grade alchemist master?
"How is it, Master Ji?"
Xiao Yi noticed Ji Yue's gaze and boasted deliberately.
"It's just... okay."
Ji Yue had figured out Xiao Yi's style. She couldn't praise him, otherwise she would become arrogant.
However, why did she feel a sense of crisis...
