Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 216 - 214: Jiang Lingyue’s Alchemy Talent, Return to Cloud Leaf City, and the Mysterious Chief of the Northern Fox Race
In that case, Dan Peak might find it hard to operate normally.
Jiang Lingyue approached the human-sized alchemy furnace, and the Pill Fire Formula she had recently studied started to appear in her mind.
Although a bit nervous, when she thought about how life for herself and Lu Ye, as well as the Jiang Family, would improve if she truly had the talent.
Even without the ancestor’s presence, they wouldn’t plummet into decline.
Jiang Lingyue suddenly felt her heart fill with motivation.
Her sister could marry into another family for the sake of the Jiang Family, and she too must work hard for the future of the Jiang Family!
In the next moment, as Jiang Lingyue formed the hand technique, her Inner Qi surged from her palm, instantly transforming into a wisp of flame!
As soon as the flame appeared, Steward Su, who seemed a bit absent-minded while sitting on the chair, immediately snapped back and frowned at that wisp of Pill Fire.
The Pill Fire’s flames were weak, as if they could extinguish at any moment.
But...
The speed of condensation and its density were significantly stronger than that of an ordinary beginner cultivator attempting to stimulate Pill Fire.
After lasting about a minute, with a flick of Jiang Lingyue’s wrist, the flame hovering above her palm extinguished.
Immediately, a wave of frustration welled up within Jiang Lingyue.
With only three chances, she’d carelessly wasted the first one just like that.
At this moment, a flicker of interest had entirely emerged in Steward Su’s eyes.
She could see that this girl was definitely generating Pill Fire for the first time, evident from the unfamiliar technique.
To create Pill Fire so swiftly and maintain it for a minute on her first try...
Could it be that she truly has the potential to become an Alchemy Master?
After just a few minutes of rest, Jiang Lingyue secretly encouraged herself and immediately began the second Pill Fire conjuring.
This time, Jiang Lingyue focused with all her might, feeling as if she put all her strength into it.
Watching the flame in her hand flicker, as if it’d extinguish at any moment, she desperately infused Postnatal Inner Qi into the Pill Fire as fuel!
This approach seemed to work; the flame, which seemed ready to be blown out by any breeze, stubbornly continued to burn.
One minute, two minutes, four minutes...
With her extensive and rapid output of Inner Qi, Jiang Lingyue’s already limited Dantian quickly began depleting.
Yet in her heart right now, there was only one faith floating...
"I must qualify to become an Alchemy Master!"
Her face gradually turned pale, yet the flame in her palm remained stable, burning at the furnace’s base.
Beside her, Steward Su looked at the timing array and finally softly uttered four words...
"Time’s up..."
Upon hearing this, the flame in Jiang Lingyue’s hand vanished with a "poof," and she gasped for breath as a deep fatigue overwhelmed her.
"Congratulations, you passed the test. Holding out for five minutes signifies the potential to become an alchemy apprentice."
Pausing, Steward Su continued, "However... you’re already a True Disciple under Elder Zhou. Switching to Dan Peak wouldn’t be appropriate."
"Um... is there any other way?" Jiang Lingyue showed a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
After pondering for a moment, Steward Su said, "Of course, we have numerous daily tasks at Dan Peak. We often need assistance from other sect members."
"If you have the time, you can come to the Alchemy Hall at Dan Peak and serve as a Pill Flame Child, where you can also learn some basic alchemy skills."
"Thank you, Steward Su. I have time!" Jiang Lingyue’s heart immediately filled with joy, and she quickly thanked her.
Watching the uncontrollable joy on the girl’s cheeks, Steward Su sighed inwardly, feeling as if she was seeing her younger self.
She had traveled all the way from the Northern Territory to the Wuxiang Sect, renowned as the top sect in alchemy in the North, just to refine her alchemy skills.
Upon returning, her kin would finally have their Alchemy Master, no longer troubled by elixirs.
...
In a border town.
After resting for two or three days, Lu Ye finally felt rejuvenated.
Neither did they linger, setting off for Cloud Leaf City.
Along the way, perhaps due to recently studying the Spiritual Awareness Technique, Lu Ye felt his perception, even without using his Spiritual Sense, had become finer and wider than before.
Every movement around them was captured entirely within his five senses.
"This Spiritual Awareness Technique is truly something," Lu Ye remarked with a hint of admiration.
"Indeed it is," Youluo said with slight pride, "Master Husband, do not underestimate the Purple Extreme Divine Refining Technique. Even tens of thousands of years ago, it was a secret scripture sought after by top experts!"
After contemplating for a moment, Lu Ye, a bit curious, asked, "Does Jiang Qingge also know the Spiritual Awareness Technique?"
Youluo, clad in a black robe, proudly puffed out her chest, nodding, "Naturally, Master has been the most outstanding king our Nine Nether Realm has seen in tens of thousands of years! Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible to ascend to the throne and end the long-standing chaos of the Nine Nether Realm."
"Moreover, Master had long refined his Spiritual Sense into a higher-tier Divine Sense! The Purple Extreme Divine Refining Technique involves not only refining soul and spiritual power but also tempering Divine Sense!"
The knowledge of evolving Spiritual Sense into a stronger Divine Sense is detailed in the Purple Extreme Divine Refining Technique.
Upon hearing Youluo’s words, Lu Ye wasn’t much surprised. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
The two conversed while on their journey, steadily approaching Cloud Leaf City.
...
Meanwhile, in a distant location.
This was the deepest part of a mountain range, rarely visited by people.
Several swiftly running foxes, their fur smooth and sleek, leapt forward as if entering an array, disappearing into the depths of the mountain in an instant.
After passing through a hidden array, two of the foxes transformed into human forms, revealing two female figures.
"There are fewer and fewer fruits to eat in this Qingqiu Mountain Range,"
Said a slightly younger woman, her fox tail not fully hidden, sweeping behind her, "And staying in the clan all the time; the farthest I’ve been is within the mountains. It’s so boring, day after day."
"Sister, why don’t we go out for a stroll?"
"Out again, out again!" The older fox demon rolled her eyes exasperatedly, "Have you forgotten what happened half a month ago?"
"If the other party hadn’t spared us after taking the Treasure Map, we wouldn’t have the chance to speak in the clan now!"
At the mention of that matter, the younger fox demon’s tail curled, her body trembling slightly.
The older fox demon sighed, "We must make haste with our cultivation. The chieftain hasn’t been in the clan these years, striving for the Northern Fox Race. We can’t waste time either."
The young fox demon asked curiously, "Yes, the chieftain has been gone for a few years. Sister, do you know where the chieftain is?"
