Otherworldly-Cultivator

Chapter 277 Learning Alchemy

"What the hell happened to you? Who beat you up this time?" Long Jiuxiao asked with a look of shock as soon as he saw Jin Kang.

'Tch! It's all your fault!' Jin Kang cursed in his heart before answering his questions. "After we had cornered your two sisters, a foreign old man suddenly appeared in front of us, and he immediately massacred my people."

"A foreign old man?" Long Jiuxiao frowned upon hearing that. "Describe his characteristics."

With a straight face, Jin Kang immediately made up a story for him. "He has blonde hair, and his eyes are red like your sister's, so I suspect he is a vampire like them."

'Could he be Jiro's person? But why did he kill my subordinates?' Long Jiuxiao wondered in his heart. "If he really was a vampire, why did he let you go?"

Jin Kang sighed heavily and answered him with a bitter smile. "Boss, that old man deliberately let me go to give you a warning."

"What did the old man say?" Long Jiuxiao asked with a darkened face, especially since no one had ever dared to threaten him before.

"He asked me to tell you that your sisters are his subordinates, and he will not spare anyone who intends to capture them, including you." Even though he was lying, Jin Kang's expression looked very serious, and even Long Jiuxiao didn't realize that he was lying to him. "If you dare order your other subordinates to hunt them again, he will come to this house and kill your family."

*Bam*

"Bastard!" Long Jiuxiao instantly cursed furiously as he pounded his desk very hard, and his face became extremely dark; even the muscles on his face bulged out. "How dare that old man threaten me! Who does he think he is?"

"It's no use for you to be angry like this, Boss." Jin Kang answered as he shook his head. "Even though you have a speed superpower, that old man can move before I can blink, so your speed is useless in front of him."

Hearing that, Long Jiuxiao glared fiercely at Jin Kang, but he remembered the time when Xuanyuan Wan'er stopped him so easily, and he couldn't even see her move. "Is that guy's movement really that fast?"

"Yes." Jin Kang nodded repeatedly. "In fact, the old man's movement was like instant movement."

Long Jiuxiao leaned back in his chair and stared at the ceiling. "You can go to the hospital and treat your wounds."

"Yes." Without waiting any longer, Jin Kang immediately left Long Jiuxiao's room, but he was laughing in his heart because he didn't suspect his lie at all.

Not long after, Long Aotian entered his father's room. "What happened? Why did I hear you so angry just now?"

"Nothing." Long Jiuxiao shook his head and asked him back. "Where is your mom?"

"My mom decided to stay overnight at Grandpa Tang's house, but she will be back tomorrow." Long Aotian then conveyed his idea. "Dad, I want to go meet those people, and I want to ask them to get rid of Mo Xie as quickly as possible, or we will continue to face strange situations like now."

Long Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows after hearing that, but he immediately agreed to his son's request after he thought about it. "All right, you can go to Harbin to meet them, and you can tell them that I sent you."

"Okay."

Since they were too engrossed in dual cultivating, Chen Li and Mayumi Keiko didn't realize that it was already morning in the outside world.

Even so, they didn't dual cultivate non-stop, especially since Mayumi Keiko had to stabilize her cultivation every time her cultivation broke through to the next stage, and Chen Li continued to accompany her by her side.

Meanwhile, Lin Qingzhu was sitting together with her son's women at the dining table, and she asked Feng Xian'er. "Where's Li'er? Has he still not woken up from his sleep?"

Feng Xian'er chuckled at that. "Aunt Qingzhu, he is accompanying Sister Keiko inside the pagoda, and they have been there since midnight."

"Huh?" Lin Qingzhu and the others were shocked to hear that, especially since they remembered the difference in the flow of time within Tianyi Realm, which meant they had been dual cultivating for approximately three days.

While she was feeding Xing Bao'er, Yu Hua asked them. "Why are you guys surprised like that? Have you all forgotten what happened when we were in seclusion before?"

"No." Xiao Xianglin shook her head at her. "Chen Li is too strong in dual cultivation, even with several of us serving him in turns, but we were still overwhelmed by him."

"Hehe." Shen Qing giggled and asked them. "What do you think about Sister Keiko's condition now? I'm worried that she can't get out of bed now, or she might fall unconscious because she's too exhausted."

"That might happen." Chen Wei'er replied as she nodded.

Yang Li, Bei Lian'er, Yu Xuan, and the two female angels also agreed with Shen Qing's opinion, especially since they had personally experienced Chen Li's prowess in dual cultivation.

Lin Qingzhu and Dongfang Wenxin couldn't help but shake their heads, but they didn't expect that Chen Li could be so powerful, and he could even satisfy so many at once.

As for the Dongfang Twins, they looked gloomy listening to them, especially since Chen Li was still not willing to accept them.

Meanwhile, the Di Sisters' faces turned red after listening to their conversation. They naturally understood about dual cultivation, and they wondered in their hearts about Chen Li's strength, especially since those women looked so proud when talking about his strength.

Sun Xing'er, who was walking down, directly informed them. "Brother still accompanied Keiko to break through, but he didn't seem to have any intention of leaving there yet, and he wanted to practice first."

They could only shake their heads after hearing that, especially since Chen Li was too serious about his training, but they really understood his purpose.

Feng Xian'er then said to the Di Sisters. "Sister Chen! Di Jing! Shen Qing and I will take you guys on a trip to another place today, and I'm sure you'll definitely like that place, especially since you can't find everything in your realm."

"En." They nodded at her; even Hui Ling looked happy after hearing that.

"Since we don't have any class schedule, we will come with you to have fun." Dongfang Hanxue nodded in agreement with her twin sister, for she also felt bored with their lectures and cultivation.

Chen Wei'er, Xiao Xianglin, and Xuanyuan Wan'er immediately went to the northern forest to train the Long Feng Pavilion members, but they were confused because they couldn't find Yan Qiu in her room.

Yang Li, Yu Xuan, and Bei Lian'er immediately entered the Tianyi Realm to train with the spirit women.

Meanwhile, Lin Qingzhu and Dongfang Wenxin also left Qingshui Mansion, and they went to Qingshui Restaurant directly.

After Mayumi Keiko finished breaking through, Chen Li immediately left her to rest, and he immediately went to see Xiao Huoli, for he wanted to start learning about alchemy.

However, Xiao Huoli actually gave him a very thick book and asked him to read it first, and inside the book were photos of thousands of herbs. She asked him to memorize all of them, and he read them for almost a full day.

After he finished memorizing the herbs, Xiao Huoli began to teach him how to properly control fire while doing alchemy.

In alchemy, there are five levels of fire that are always used. From the lowest to the highest. That's because each herb has a different sensitivity to fire. There are herbs that require very low heat, but there are also herbs that require very high heat.

As for fire control, Chen Li doesn't have much trouble, for he learned to control his fire a long time ago.

"First, I will show you how to prepare each of these herbs and how to extract their essences." Chen Li watched Huoli with a serious look and listened to every word she said. "Next, I'll show you how to concoct the rank-two Soul Cleansing Pill once, and you will try to concoct the same pill as a start."

Xiao Huoli started to fire up her furnace and put the first herb inside it. After five minutes, she put the second herb in the furnace. Fifteen minutes later, she had put all the herbs inside.

Since she was a Saint-Rank Alchemist, and the pill was only a rank-two pill, Xiao Huoli had no difficulty concocting the pill. In just ten minutes, she had finished concocting it, and she then threw five peak-grade pills at him. "Five pills have maxed out in one furnace, and you can try to make the same pill now based on all my previous explanations. I'm not asking you to make a peak-grade pill, and you can try to create any-grade pill first."

"All right." Chen Li replied with a nod.

Soon, Chen Li started to process the herbs one by one, according to Xiao Huoli's explanation. Since he was just starting to learn alchemy, it took him quite some time to complete his preparations.

Although the results were not very good, Xiao Huoli still satisfied with the results. "Since these herbs are ready, you can follow the steps I showed you before to concoct the pill. However, alchemy requires a high level of concentration, and you will fail if your concentration is split up."

"Got it."
