Chapter 156 A Little Alchemy!
The next morning, Xiao Xiao finally woke up slowly.
She sat on the bed, looking down at her fair and tender hands, her fingertips gleaming with a faint emerald green luster.
She touched the newly grown wings again; they shimmered with iridescent colors and were even more beautiful than before.
Each feather shimmered with a faint ethereal light, and felt warm and smooth to the touch, as if it had been polished from jade.
She tried fanning herself; a gentle breeze brushed her face, carrying the fragrance of flowers and grass, and stirred the curtains by the bedside.
"Little girl, you're awake!"
Niannian pushed the door open and came in, followed by Xiao Jin, Xiao Qilin and Xiao Bai.
The three little ones rushed in, completely surrounding the small bed.
Niannian rushed to the bedside, brought her face close to Xiaoxiao's, and her eyes sparkled.
"Wow, you were amazing yesterday, little sister!"
Little Niannian gave a thumbs up.
"That arrow, whoosh, hey-ha...!"
"Little sister, your wings are so beautiful!"
Little Niannian reached out and gently touched the tiny wing tips, then withdrew her hand as if she had been burned.
"It's much prettier than yesterday's, hehe!"
Xiao Xiao was a little embarrassed, her face flushed slightly, and she reached out to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear.
Luo Tian stood at the door, watching the children making a ruckus inside, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his face.
He leaned against the door frame, arms crossed, neither going in nor urging anyone, but simply watching quietly.
The morning light streamed in through the window, falling on his profile, and a light flickered in his eyes.
"Hey little sister, how are you feeling today?"
Niannian lay down beside her bed and asked.
"Great."
Xiao Xiao clenched her fist, feeling the power surging within her.
"Much better than yesterday."
"So, are you allowed to go out and play today?"
Xiao Xiao looked at Luo Tian, her light blue eyes filled with inquiry.
Luo Tian nodded slightly.
"able."
Xiao Xiao smiled, her smile full of joy and innocence.
"Yay!"
Niannian jumped three feet high, almost hitting her head on the luminous pearl on the top of the cave.
"Dad, let's go out and play today!"
Luo Tian glanced out the window; the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was cloudless.
"I'm not going out today; I still have things to take care of."
Niannian's smile faded, and her little face scrunched up.
"Is there anything else?"
"Alchemy, breakthrough, tribulation transcendence!"
Luo Tian's lips curled up slightly.
Niannian thought for a moment with a sullen face, looked at Xiaoxiao, then at the three little ones, and finally sighed:
"Alright then! Niannian can wait a little longer..."
Xiao Xiao got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked up to Luo Tian:
"Dad, Xiaoxiao can refine pills now."
Luo Tian looked down at her, his gaze falling on her youthful face.
Her eyes were serious; she didn't seem to be putting on a brave face.
"Are you sure you can do it? You just survived a tribulation yesterday."
Xiao Xiao nodded quickly:
"The Tree of Life gave Little a lot of strength. Little can do it."
Luo Tian was silent for a moment, then reached out and rubbed her head. His palm was broad and warm, carrying the familiar spiritual energy she knew.
Luo Tian's gaze fell from the top of her silver-white hair to her light blue eyes, as if confirming something, and then he spoke:
"Alright, let's start refining pills today."
……
Inside the alchemy room, Xiao Xiao sat cross-legged.
The light of the Tree of Life surged from her body, enveloping the entire alchemy furnace.
A verdant light spread out like mist, illuminating the patterns on the surface of the alchemy furnace.
Even the copper rings on the furnace lid gleamed with a pale green light.
The little hands formed a mudra with practiced ease, as if they had practiced it hundreds of times.
Her innate talent for alchemy, awakened within her bloodline, allowed her to naturally know how to proceed at each step.
Ye Qianxue and Li Mengmeng helped organize the medicinal herbs, which were given to them by the old elf woman in Shennong's small world.
They carefully arranged the medicinal herbs by category, their fingers flying across the paper with a touch of caution.
Little Jin and Little Qilin squatted at the doorway, peering curiously inside, their two little heads huddled together, craning their necks.
Niannian sat in Luo Tian's arms, staring wide-eyed at Xiao Xiao, her little mouth slightly open, forgetting even to breathe.
"Daddy, what is the little girl doing?"
"Alchemy."
"Does Nian Nian also know how to refine pills?"
"You'll learn it too when you study it later."
"Then Niannian will refine pills with Miss Niuniu from now on!"
Luo Tian gave a soft "hmm".
His gaze fell on Xiaoxiao, watching her fingers fly across the paper, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Her eyes were focused, and the complex alchemical formulas flowed smoothly from her fingertips without any hesitation.
When the first batch of Breakthrough Pills was produced, the emerald green pills flew out of the furnace.
Each grain is plump and round, with dense red veins, indicating extremely high quality.
There are twelve in total, and each one is of the highest quality.
The second batch of Transformation Pills consisted of eight pills, all silver in color and radiating a soft glow.
The third batch, the fourth batch... all sorts of elixirs were produced one after another.
Some are for improving cultivation, some for healing injuries, some for detoxifying, and some for strengthening the body's foundation.
Even Luo Tian was slightly surprised by the speed and quality of Xiao Xiao's alchemy.
She seemed to be refining elixirs instinctively; the light of the Tree of Life surged into the furnace, and the elixir naturally took shape.
"Xiaoxiao, take a rest for a while."
Luo Tian spoke, his voice gentle.
The little head shook:
"Only one batch left."
She put the last batch of medicinal herbs into the furnace, made hand seals, and the emerald green light of the Tree of Life flowed into the furnace.
The alchemy furnace vibrated slightly, like a heart beating.
The furnace lid was lifted, and six golden pills flew out, emitting a rich fragrance.
The aroma of elixir filled the entire alchemy room. Xiao Jin took a deep breath at the door, his eyes wide with amazement.
"What kind of pill is this?"
Ye Qianxue couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Xiao wiped the sweat from her forehead; her fingers still had medicine residue on them.
"Soul Healing Pill, for Xiao Jin."
Xiao Jin, who was lying by the door, suddenly brightened up, like two little light bulbs that had been lit:
"For...for me?"
She nodded slightly, her light blue eyes turning to him:
"Hasn't your soul been injured all along? This can be healed."
Xiao Jin froze for a few seconds, then rushed in with a "whoosh," grabbed the little girl's leg, and cried out:
"Long live the little master! The little master is the best master in the world!"
Xiao Xiao stumbled slightly from being carried, her face flushed again, and she looked down at Xiao Jin:
"You...you get up quickly..."
Xiao Jin refused to let go, while Niannian laughed so hard she slapped her thigh.
Luo Tian watched this scene, his lips twitched, his eyes softened, and he gently tapped his knee with his fingertips.
