Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 78 Taking on Apprentices

Jia Xingtian became even more excited and asked, "Is President Xiao Jue confident in refining the Breakthrough Pill?"

"Of course." Xiao Jue nodded. "As long as it's not a seventh-grade pill, I can refine it. However, the success rate will be lower for sixth-grade pills like the Breakthrough Pill, which are difficult to refine."

Xiao Jue casually tossed the jade bottle containing the Purple Spirit Pill to Hai Bodong and said with a smile, "The promise has been fulfilled. As for the remaining Imperial Extreme Pill, let's wait another half month."

"Haha, thank you very much." Hai Bodong smiled as he accepted the jade bottle. "I will remember your great kindness. I will be at your service in the future."

Jia Xingtian said, "President Xiao Jue, the royal family of our Jia Ma Empire has a guardian magical beast, the sixth-tier magical beast Youhai Jiao Beast. In its early years, it fought too many battles for our royal family, resulting in many health problems."

"To heal its injuries, we need to use the sixth-grade pill, the Primordial Bone-Sculpting Pill. This pill has a particularly significant effect on the injuries of magical beasts, but its grade is not low, reaching the sixth grade. Even with the abilities of Guild Master Fa Ma, it would be difficult to successfully refine a pill of this grade."

Chemir, standing to the side, explained, "Before President Xiao Jue appeared, the only person in the Gama Empire who could refine this kind of pill was probably Gu He of the Yunlan Sect. However, the relationship between the royal family and the Yunlan Sect is somewhat strained, so it is obviously unlikely that they would ask him to help refine it."

Xiao Jue nodded. "After that, just send over the medicinal herbs and the pill formula. Within a month, I will definitely deliver the Hunyuan Bone-Sculpting Pill to the royal family."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian was overjoyed and immediately handed over the pill formula and ten portions of the ingredients for the Hunyuan Bone-Sculpting Pill to Xiao Jue, as he always carried these items with him.

"Is this the royal princess?"

After greeting the others, Xiao Jue looked at the girl in purple and asked, "Do you have a teacher?"

Chemir, standing awkwardly to the side, said, "President, I am the little princess's teacher..."

Xiao Jue chuckled and asked, "I wonder if the Vice President can accept that the little princess has two teachers? A seventeen-year-old third-grade alchemist, with my guidance, might become a seventh-grade alchemist in the future."

"I forgot to mention to you all that my teacher comes from the Central Continent Pill Tower and is a peak eighth-grade alchemist."

Yao Lao was also considered Xiao Jue's half-teacher. As the former champion of the Pill Gathering, he could barely be considered a member of the Pill Tower.

Jia Xingtian looked anxious, but given that Chemir was there, he couldn't urge Yaoyue.

Seeing the change in their expressions, Chemir gave a wry smile and said, "Moon, why don't you kneel down and become my disciple? You've become a third-grade alchemist now, and you'll become a fourth-grade alchemist in two years at most. By then, I won't be able to teach you much more."

"If you can become a disciple of the guild master, you might become a seventh-grade alchemist in the future, and you can even go to the Pill Tower, the holy land of alchemists in Zhongzhou."

"Teacher..." Yaoyue bit her lower lip, and at Chemir's smiling prompting, Yaoyue knelt down in front of Xiao Jue and respectfully kowtowed.

"Yaoyue greets her teacher."

Xiao Jue nodded in satisfaction, took out a jade bottle and handed it to Yao Yue, saying, "This is a pill that your grandmaster refined before, a seventh-grade pill called Earth Core Pill. It can improve physical condition, enhance talent, and strengthen fire attribute battle qi. It is similar to a foundation-building pill. There are no requirements for strength when taking Earth Core Pill. Consider it a gift for you to become my disciple."

Yao Yue was probably a few months older than Xiao Jue, but she looked very young and had a petite figure, making her look more like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl.

Yao Yue's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed with delight, "Thank you, teacher!"

She caught the jade bottle and happily put it back into her storage ring. Xiao Jue looked at the people around him and chuckled, "There's still more than half a month until the Alchemist Conference starts. Let's take advantage of this time to teach the little princess. We'll see you again when we spar with Guild Master Fa Ma next time."

After greeting everyone, Xiao Jue picked up Yao Yue in a princess carry and left with Hai Bodong and Mittel Tengshan, returning to the Mittel family.

Mittel Tengshan had prepared a place for Xiao Jue to stay yesterday, but Xiao Jue spent the night with Ya Fei.

Xiao Jue descended from the sky carrying the little princess, placed her on the ground, and asked, "Your current strength is a five-star Dou Shi. Have you taken any Qi Condensation Pills?"

Yao Yue's face flushed slightly as she looked at Xiao Jue's incomparably handsome face, and she couldn't help but let her imagination run wild. She whispered, "Teacher, Yue'er has already taken the Condensing Liquid Pill."

"Okay." Xiao Jue nodded and said, "Go to your room first and take the Earth Core Pill. After taking the Earth Core Pill, you will fall into a deep sleep and wake up in about a few hours. During this time, the Earth Core Pill will improve your physique, and I will help you break through to the Great Dou Master level."

"Your talent is not bad. If you break through to the Great Dou Master level, your soul power should also be able to improve to the level of a fourth-grade alchemist. My requirement for you in this year's Alchemist Tournament is to win the championship."

"Thank you, teacher!" Yaoyue excitedly hugged Xiao Jue. Xiao Jue gently stroked her hair and said tenderly, "Alright, go take the Earth Core Pill. I'll come find you in a bit."

After Yao Yue entered the room and took the Earth Core Pill, Xiao Jue also spread his dragon wings and flew up. At the entrance of the Mittel family, Xiao Jue saw Xiao Yan who had just arrived and waved to him. Xiao Yan then used the Purple Cloud Wings to fly up.

At the Alchemist Guild, Xiao Jue recognized Xiao Yan's identity and communicated with him through a soul message, urging him to come to the Mittel family.

The latest novel is first published here!

The guards of the Mittel family looked over when they saw someone appear above their clan's territory, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xiao Jue, indicating that he was not an enemy.

"Come with me." Xiao Jue glanced at Xiao Yan and said irritably, "Still wearing the Ice Silk Mask, is it really necessary to hide your identity?"

Standing beside Xiao Jue, Xiao Yanfei said confidently, "I'm even planning to adopt the pseudonym Yan Xiao to conceal my identity. Once I'm at the Yunlan Sect, I'm sure I'll shock everyone."

"Alright then." Xiao Jue was both amused and exasperated. He led Xiao Yan to Mittel Tengshan and said, "Elder Tengshan, this is my friend Yan Xiao. He will be attending the Alchemist Conference. Please arrange a place for him to stay."

Xiao Yan frowned. When did he say he was going to participate in the Alchemist Conference? Then he heard Xiao Jue's soul transmission.

"If you win the Alchemist Tournament, I can help you obtain a new exotic flame, which will rank even higher than the Yin-Yang Twin Flames."

"Since he is your friend, then leave him to me."

Xiao Jue casually removed the Bone Flame Ring from Xiao Yan's hand, then flew away back to his residence, leaving Xiao Yan with Mittel Tengshan.

Upon landing in the courtyard, the old apothecary appeared and couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Jue, what are you planning to do? You've even taken on a disciple in the royal family."
