Chapter 107, Body Refining

Hua Changxi stared at the red lotus pattern between his eyebrows. At first glance, it was a red lotus, but if you looked closely, you could clearly see the raging flames surging among the lotus petals.

This is the manifestation of the blood totem after atavism!
Looking at the lotus totem between his eyebrows, Hua Changxi was a little surprised that the power of the Vermillion Bird in his blood could not compete with the power of the lotus, so that in the end it was the lotus totem that appeared.

However, she soon felt relieved.

Although Suzaku is one of the four spirits, the Suzaku blood in her body is probably a little thin. Even after soaking in the atavistic medicine soup, not much of it returned to its ancestral form.

Also, she had previously taken Flowing Red Lotus, which is a top-level fire-type atavism fruit. It is estimated that this strengthened the lotus bloodline in her body.

Seeing more and more servants coming to the No. 4 Qihuang Clinic, Hua Changxi did not delve into the lotus pattern any further. Instead, he turned and went to the main hall and began to explain the direction of the tendons and meridians of animals and plants.

Afterwards, I went to the No. 5 Qihuang Hall to talk about the principles of decomposition, purification and fusion of (plants, animals and minerals), as well as the corresponding methods and means.

When explaining alchemy in the No. 6 Qihuang Hall, Hua Changxi saw Eunuch Jia, Eunuch Yu, Eunuch Zhao, and Eunuch Zhou, all of whom brought people with them.

In the subsequent class, the people brought by Eunuch Jia and his four companions took turns asking questions to Hua Changxi. From the questions they asked, Hua Changxi realized that these people were all alchemists.

After half an hour, the class ended.

Everyone else left, but Eunuch Jia and his three companions stayed.

As soon as the people left, Eunuch Jia hurried forward to explain, "Master, those people were arranged by our superiors. We were notified yesterday. We couldn't refuse, and we didn't have time to report to you, so we brought them to Qihuang Hall."

Hua Changxi looked at the four trembling people and said, "You seem to be very afraid of me?"

Hearing this, the four eunuchs Jia looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, eunuch Zhou couldn't help but ask, "We brought the people arranged by the higher-ups here without asking you in advance. Aren't you angry?"

After hearing his question, Hua Changxi understood why they were so terrified: "Let me ask you, have you leaked my affairs to the people above?"

Eunuch Jia and the other three quickly shook their heads. Their master was giving a lecture in the servants' hall and many people knew about it, so there was no need for them to leak it.

Hua Changxi asked again: "Have you betrayed me and harmed my interests?"

Eunuch Jia and the other three shook their heads again.

Hua Changxi: "That's it. I want you to work for me, not to dominate you. As long as you don't betray me and don't disclose my affairs, I don't care about anything else."

"There is nothing wrong with your response to emergencies like this. Just explain the cause and effect to me afterwards."

"In the future, the people behind you will have to arrange for someone to come and listen to my lectures. Just agree to it. Anyone can come and listen to my lectures."

Eunuch Jia and the other three were very surprised to see Hua Changxi's reaction.

This kind of relationship was something they had never experienced before, and they didn't know how to deal with it.

Seeing the four people standing still, Hua Changxi asked: "Do you have anything else to do?"

The four of them came back to their senses and shook their heads: "No more."

Eunuch Zhou wanted to get closer to Hua Changxi, so he tried to compliment her: "Master, the lotus flower on your forehead looks really nice today. With it on, you look even more radiant than before."

As soon as these words were spoken, Eunuch Zhou and the other three saw Hua Changxi smile.

"Really? I like this flower ornament too. I will draw it every day from now on."

Seeing that Hua Changxi really responded to him and looked very happy, Eunuch Zhou's eyes brightened. After he followed Eunuch Jia and the other two out of the Qihuang Hall, he said something.

"This master is different from the master in the palace."

Eunuch Yu looked at the other three and sighed, "Not only the masters in the palace, she is different from all the masters."

In fact, when he was working with Hua Changxi to refine medicine, he discovered that Hua Changxi seemed to build an equal relationship when getting along with others.

After accepting the four of them, she did not treat them as slaves.

At this moment, the four people's reluctance and resistance to recognizing Hua Changxi as their master, a little girl, was reduced to the lowest level. Just as they were about to go back home, Hua Changxi's voice came from behind them.

"Just a moment."

"Master, is there anything I can do for you?"

Hua Changxi looked at Jia Gonggong and the other three. If she wanted the horse to run fast, she had to let it eat enough grass first. If she wanted to completely control the Miscellaneous Service Hall, she needed their help: "Come with me to Qihuang Hall No. 7."

The four of them looked at each other and quickly followed Hua Changxi.

After entering the No. 7 Qihuang Hall, Hua Changxi took out the spirit-testing stone and the totem golden bowl: "This round ball is called the spirit-testing stone, and it can test whether a person has a spirit vein."

"This golden bowl can reflect the power of your bloodline and see if you can return to your ancestral state."

Eunuch Jia and the other three were looking at the spirit stone and the totem golden bowl with burning eyes.

Eunuch Yu had already tested his spiritual veins in the East Factory, but he didn't have any. At this moment, looking at the totem golden bowl, he asked nervously, "Master, without a spiritual vein, our bloodline can't return to our ancestors, so is there no way to practice?"

Hua Changxi: "Of course there are other ways, but that would be truly changing your fate. Everything has a price. Can you afford the price of changing your fate?"

Eunuch Yu lowered his head and said nothing.

Hua Changxi asked the four people to start the test. In the end, none of them had spiritual veins, but the golden bowl did emit a superficial atavism totem on the four people.

Eunuch Jia's totem image is a rabbit, Eunuch Yu's is a cow, Eunuch Zhou's is a tiger, and Eunuch Zhao's is a mouse.

Eunuch Jia and the other three were confused by the totem image and all looked at Hua Changxi.

Hua Changxi: "Although the totem image is a little illusory, it can still return to your ancestral state. You are my people, and we will prepare a medicine soup for you to return to your ancestral state. After you soak in the medicine soup, we will know whether you can obtain the magical power of returning to your ancestral state."

"You will wait for me in this courtyard at midnight tonight. By the way, Eunuch Yu, please call Yu Hui and ask him to come as well."

Eunuch Yu nodded quickly.

After the four people left, Hua Changxi returned to her own courtyard. She wanted to see if her return to her ancestral state would affect her cultivation.

As soon as he immersed himself in cultivation, Hua Changxi's consciousness attached to the inner elixir in the Dantian Qi Sea, and then he saw the lifelike Vermillion Bird pattern covering the inner elixir.

Then, as the practice progressed, spiritual energy continued to flow into the inner elixir, and the Vermillion Bird pattern seemed to come alive, becoming colorful and radiant.

At the same time, the image of Suzaku's breathing in his mind regained its luster and became even brighter than before.

The Vermillion Bird Totem was unable to compete with the Lotus Totem and actually came here to the inner elixir!
As long as the totem was there, Hua Changxi didn't care where it appeared and began to concentrate on practicing.

In the past two months, she has unlocked eight Qihuang Halls. Every time a Qihuang Hall is unlocked, her cultivation can increase by 100,000 points. After her bloodline returns to her ancestral home, her cultivation speed has increased again.

Now, practicing for one hour can increase one million and one hundred thousand spiritual energy points.

When it got dark, Hua Changxi stopped practicing.

[Realm: Jindan Realm 8888 million/1000 million]
Hua Changxi looked at her cultivation data and was in a good mood. At her current cultivation speed, she would be able to advance to the next level soon.

Seeing that it was getting late, I got up and went to the No. 7 Qihuang Clinic.

In the No. 7 Qihuang Clinic, Yu Hui, Eunuch Jia and three others had been waiting anxiously for a while.

"Sister, you're here."

Seeing Yu Hui coming up to talk to Hua Changxi with a bright smile on his face, Hua Changxi was also very warm to him. Eunuch Jia, Eunuch Zhao, and Eunuch Zhou looked at each other silently.

The three of them were surprised. Although they knew that Hua Changxi might be different from the superiors they had met before, they didn't expect him to be so different.

Yu Hui actually called Hua Changxi "sister", and Hua Changxi responded. It turned out that the two of them had such a relaxed way of getting along in private.

Hua Changxi used the golden bowl to take a picture of Yu Hui to see if he had any blood totem. Unexpectedly, Yu Hui's totem image was the strongest, and it was a colorful rooster.

"I'm actually a chicken!"

Hua Changxi was speechless when he heard Yu Hui's exclamation.

At this time, four more people entered the yard. They were the two men and two women whose rabbit totem images were photographed yesterday.

"Flower in charge."

Seeing that Eunuch Jia and others were also there, the four of them felt a little reserved.

Among the four, three were siblings, Xia Song, Xia Bai, Xia Ge, and the other was Su Ying. After Hua Changxi introduced the four, he went to the pharmacy in the west wing and began to make the ancestral medicine.

After it is cooked, let the nine people soak in the medicinal bath.

After soaking in the medicinal soup, the nine people all felt uncomfortable.

"Ah~"

"Sister Changxi, it hurts."

Eunuch Jia and others did not dare to act rashly and gritted their teeth to endure the pain. Yu Hui was familiar with Hua Changxi, so he quickly told her about his condition.

Hua Changxi knows the pain of taking a medicinal bath: "Bear it, and revive the dormant blood power in your body. The pain is inevitable."

Afterwards, Hua Changxi recorded in detail the reactions of the nine people in the medicinal bath. The wooden sign number seven placed in the main room was always glowing white.

Hua Changxi noticed that a pattern had appeared on the stone wall of the main hall. Seeing that Yu Hui and others were enduring the pain to absorb the medicinal properties of the soup, he went into the main hall to look at the pattern.

This is a bloody pattern. After someone activated the blood totem, his body exploded!!!

Obviously, this was because the body was unable to withstand the power of the totem and caused the body to explode.

After looking at the pattern, Hua Changxi hurried out of the room. Seeing that Yu Hui and the others had fainted from the pain, he quickly went over to check them.

It was soon discovered that Yu Hui, Su Ying, and the three siblings of the Xia family all had bloodstains of varying degrees on their skin.

Seeing this, Hua Changxi's expression changed. He quickly pulled several people out of the bathtub and gave them some pills to repair their bodies.

She went to look at Eunuch Jia and the other three again, and soon found bloodstains on Eunuch Jia's body, and then Eunuch Yu also had bloodstains.

Not long after, Eunuch Zhao and Eunuch Zhou were also lifted out of the bathtub by her.

Hua Changxi carefully checked the situation of Yu Hui and the other four people and found that Yu Hui had the least bloodstains on his body, Su Ying had the most, and among the Xia brothers and sisters, Xia Song and Xia Bai had fewer bloodstains than Xia Ge.

Then, she went to look at the four eunuchs Jia and found that Eunuch Zhou had the least bloodstains, while Eunuch Jia had the most.

"Yu Hui is a fifth-rank warrior, and his body is stronger than the other four. Su Ying is petite and thin, and her body is the weakest. Of the three siblings of the Xia family, Xia Ge's body is obviously not as strong as those of his two brothers."

"Among the four eunuchs Jia, Eunuch Zhou is a master, Eunuch Zhao is an eighth-rank warrior, Eunuch Yu is a seventh-rank warrior who can break through the eighth rank, and Eunuch Jia is the weakest, a seventh-rank warrior. The physical strength of the four people decreases in order."

After comparing the situations of the two groups of people, Hua Changxi concluded that the strength of the physical body affects the revival of the totemic power in the blood.

The reason why she was able to revive the power of the blood totem in her body in one step was because she was a cultivator. Not only had her body been tempered by spiritual energy, but her body was also constantly nourished by spiritual energy during the process of cultivation. Her body was no longer an ordinary body.

"I can't bear the return of my ancestral bloodline. What should I do?"

While thinking about this question, Hua Changxi turned his gaze to the No. 8 Qihuang Hall next door.

By enhancing the strength of the body, wouldn't it be possible to withstand the power of ancestral blood?

Hua Changxi smiled. She guessed what was taught in the No. 8 Qihuang Hall. It was most likely a body-building technique to strengthen the body.

After a night, Eunuch Jia and his four companions were the first to wake up in the east wing, followed by Yu Hui, and finally the three Xia siblings and Su Ying.

When they woke up, they felt pain all over their bodies. When they learned that Hua Changxi had gone to give a lecture, they lay down in bed again. They did not get up until Hua Changxi came back at noon.

"Girl, why do our bodies hurt so much?"

"Your bodies are too weak to bear the return of your bloodline. Let's go to Qihuang Hall No. 8."

When they arrived at the No. 8 Qihuang Hall, Hua Changxi took out the first chapter "Skin Refining" of the "Nine Revolutions Profound Art" that he got in Wuzhi Mountain, gave it to Yu Hui, and asked them to copy it down in the side room.

Jia Gonggong and his friends were all martial artists. After watching, they quickly said, “We have already trained our skin when we practiced martial arts.”

Hua Changxi: "In martial arts training, the purpose is just to make the skin tighter. It can neither make it impervious to water or fire, nor invulnerable to swords or guns."

"After you have mastered the "Skin Refining" I gave you, even if you face a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, their spiritual power attacks will not be able to break through your skin defenses."

When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up and they couldn't wait to copy "Skin Refining".

As soon as they left, Hua Changxi did not leave the No. 8 Qihuang Hall, but began to boil the skin quenching medicine. The most important step in skin refining is skin quenching.

This meant that Hui and the others had finished copying it, and Hua Changxi's skin-quenching soup was also ready.

"I will provide you with the first batch of Ancestral Reversion Decoction and Skin Tempering Decoction for free. If you want to continue, you will have to rely on your own abilities to obtain the rest."

Each chapter of the "Nine Revolutions Profound Art" requires the use of corresponding body-tempering medicinal soups. The skin-tempering medicinal soup in the skin-refining chapter requires a lot of spiritual medicines. If she didn't have the Five Finger Mountain, she wouldn't be able to afford it.

Yu Hui and the others were all aware of this matter. They were already very grateful to Hua Changxi for helping them embark on the path of cultivation.

"Be prepared, the skin hardening will be very painful."

After experiencing the medicinal bath last night, Yu Hui and others felt that they had adapted to the pain. However, it was not until they soaked in the medicinal bath that they realized what it meant to be in excruciating pain.

Hua Changxi was also shocked. Looking at the skin of Yu Hui and others, which cracked and healed, cracked and healed again, his scalp felt a little numb.

But this skin tempering is different from the body explosion last night. The skin tempering is really just tempering the skin and does not hurt the flesh and blood inside.

Therefore, Yu Hui and the others were all awake in pain.

In order to distract everyone's attention, Hua Changxi began to recite the skin refining technique to them, allowing them to absorb the medicinal properties in the medicinal bath while tempering their skin.

As she recited, the number eight wooden sign lit up with white light.

Seeing the white light, Hua Changxi's eyebrows curved. She guessed right. The No. 8 Qihuang Hall teaches people how to cultivate their bodies.

After reciting the skin refining technique three times and seeing that Yu Hui and the others had adapted to the pain and were tempering their skin with gritted teeth, Hua Changxi entered the main room.

Two patterns have already appeared on the stone wall of the main room.

The first picture is very simple and straightforward, depicting a thin mortal who, after undergoing body training, becomes a giant who "stands tall and proud".

He really is a towering giant, able to penetrate the clouds. The mountains beneath his feet appear very small, a bit like the giant monkey spirit that appeared in the Five Finger Mountain.

She couldn't help but think of the magical skill "Law of Heaven and Earth" that she had obtained before. To practice "Law of Heaven and Earth", she had to refine her body first.

Hua Changxi looked at the second pattern again, which depicted a scene of people refining skin, and recorded a recipe for a decoction for quenching the skin.

This recipe contains many common medicinal herbs, with only a few kinds of spiritual medicines, and these spiritual medicines are very common.

"This skin quenching formula is very cost-effective."

Hua Changxi felt that ordinary people could collect all the medicinal materials in the recipe with some effort, unlike the spiritual medicines in the skin quenching recipe in "Nine Revolutions Profound Art", which were all precious spiritual medicines.

Moreover, the skin refining technique has become much simpler and it feels easy to learn.

Hua Changxi copied down the skin quenching decoction formula and skin refining technique on the pattern, and went to the yard to check on Yu Hui and others.

By the time Yu Hui and the others had finished tempering their skin, it was already dark. Seeing them limp in the bathtub like noodles, Hua Changxi let them leave on their own, and she herself went into the upper landlord's room carrying another dose of skin tempering medicine.

She also wanted to cultivate her body. This idea was not new. She had planned this when she obtained the "Nine Revolutions Profound Art" in Wuzhi Mountain, but she just started it now.

She felt that practicing both the Dharma and the body might be better.

She remembered very clearly the scene where Jiang Laodao's physical body was burned by her and only his Nascent Soul escaped. The physical body of a cultivator of magic was not that strong.

pain!
Soaking in the medicinal bath, Hua Changxi admired Yu Hui and the others a little, and saw how determined they were to practice. The pain of the skin cracking and healing was so extraordinary that it was hard to describe.

Just as Hua Changxi was gritting his teeth and tempering his skin, the battle for the first street came to an end.

Gu Qiming looked through the list of pharmacies on First Street. The royal family occupied twenty pharmacies, the heavenly department occupied twenty, and the remaining forty were divided among various forces.

The Medical Department only accounted for five, which made him quite dissatisfied.

This is his territory. If he wants to arrange for the pharmacist to stay here, he has to consider the opinions of other powerful people. It's really frustrating.

Yuan Tianchou looked at Gu Qiming's tired face and said, "Master, all the medicine shops on First Street have been taken over. You can take a good rest for a while."

Gu Qiming shook his head: "How can I have time to rest? I haven't done what the minister asked me to do yet."

He has to go to the old courtyard in the square to meet Gu Xing in the next two days, and the other three people who took the wooden sign should also be found.
