Seeing this, Xiao Ling shook his head with amusement, "Eat slowly, don't choke, no one is competing with you for these herbs."
The two of them played and joked as they walked, and soon walked into the living room.
Seeing Xiao Ling and Zi Yan coming, Yao Ye, who was originally sitting on a chair, brightened up. She stood up, walked in front of Xiao Ling, and spoke first: "Master Xiao Ling, I am the eldest princess of the royal family. Yao Ye, I am sorry to have disturbed your practice by coming to visit you today. I am a little rude."
Waving his hands, Xiao Ling showed a faint smile on his face, "Nothing, I just finished my training..."
The two chatted for a while and became a little familiar with each other.
Through chatting with Yao Ye, Xiao Ling gained a better understanding of the Imperial Capital, no longer limited to the description in the original novel.
After feeling that the time was right, Yao Ye stated the purpose of his visit, "Master Xiao Ling, we have prepared three batches of medicinal materials for refining the Po Zong Dan. I wonder if you are free now."
Yao Ye took out a storage ring and handed it to Xiao Ling. Apparently, the three medicinal materials for refining the Pozong Pill were stored in this storage ring.
Reaching out to take the ring, Xiao Ling checked it and found that it indeed contained the medicinal materials for three portions of Pozong Pills, and there were also some extra precious medicinal materials. It should be a gift from the royal family.
After making sure that there was enough medicinal materials, Xiao Ling put the ring away.
Xiao Ling took out a porcelain bottle containing the Po Zong Dan from his ring and handed it to Yao Ye. "You don't have to refine it. I have a ready-made Po Zong Dan on hand. I think Jia Lao can't wait any longer. You can take this Po Zong Dan back with you."
After hearing Xiao Ling's words, Yao Ye was a little unresponsive. Is it still possible to play like this?
After a slight pause, Yao Ye smiled and reached out to take the porcelain bottle that Xiao Ling handed to him.
Although he is not an alchemist, Yao Ye has no problem identifying the authenticity of elixirs.
After confirming that this was indeed a genuine sixth-grade peak sect-breaking pill, Yao Ye carefully put it into his ring.
"In that case, I won't disturb Master Xiao Ling. You can come to the royal family when you are free." After greeting Xiao Ling, Yao Ye turned and left, heading towards the imperial city.
Originally, Yao Ye planned to invite Xiao Ling to the palace to refine pills. This would not only ensure that there would be no accidents in the refining of the pills, but also allow him to communicate more with Xiao Ling and deepen his favor towards the royal family.
However, now that he had obtained the Po Zong Dan, there was no reason to invite the other party again. Besides, a treasure like the Po Zong Dan had to be handed over to his great-grandfather first.
Seeing that Yao Ye had left, Xiao Ling withdrew his gaze.
Now that the conditions promised to the royal family have been fulfilled, it is time to go into seclusion for a period of time.
Xiao Ling took out a ring and handed it to Zi Yan. "I will be in seclusion for a while, which should take about half a year. These are the pills I prepared for you. They are enough for you and Leikongzuo to eat for a year. If you finish them early, go find Yao Lao to help you refine them."
Zi Yan and the other two girls already knew Yao Chen and knew that he was a super powerful man in his lifetime and that he was now Qing Lin's teacher.
Zi Yan took the storage ring that Xiao Ling handed to her and nodded, "I understand. I heard from old man Yao that swallowing strange fire is very dangerous. You have to be careful and don't get hurt."
Touching Zi Yan's little head, Xiao Ling said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't get hurt."
After talking to Zi Yan for a few words, Xiao Ling found Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin and told them that he was going to go into seclusion.
Xiao Ling gave a few instructions to Zi Yan and the others. This retreat to devour the strange fire would take a long time, so arrangements for Zi Yan and the others had already been made, and now he just emphasized it again.
Before the retreat, Xiao Ling met with Yao Chen and said, "Old Yao, during my retreat, please take care of them for me."
Yao Chen stroked his beard and a faint smile appeared on his face. "Leave this matter to me. I will teach the three of them how to practice and will not let them waste their talents."
Although he was surprised that Xiao Ling had found a second strange fire, Yao Chen was still very happy. After absorbing the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire, Xiao Ling would have two strange fires. When he absorbed his own Bone Spirit Cold Fire, he would be able to control three strange fires at the same time and use the most advanced body refining method to refine a new body for himself.
"Well, thank you very much, Master Yao. After I come out of seclusion, I will get a Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva to restore your soul." After nodding with a smile and leaving a word, Xiao Ling walked into the training room.
……
As Xiao Ling entered seclusion, the lives of the three women became peaceful.
In addition to daily training, they fight against each other and practice practical experience.
Although the days are rather dull and boring, this is the daily situation for practitioners in the Douqi Continent.
Qinglin and Xiao Yixian also made great progress in their cultivation under the guidance of Yao Chen.
Without activating the evil poison body, Xiao Yixian spent four months using the foundation-building spirit liquid and the Yellow Dragon Pill to improve her cultivation from the fourth stage of Dou Qi to the ninth stage of Dou Qi. After taking a Qi-gathering powder made by Yao Chen, she successfully advanced to the level of Douzhe.
After that, he took the poison on his own initiative and activated his poisonous body. By continuously absorbing the poison, within two months, his cultivation level was raised from a fighter to the peak of a great fighter.
Such a speed of advancement really shocked Yao Chen. The improvement of the cultivation level of the Evil Poison Body was truly terrifying. No wonder he had heard before that the Lord of the Glacier Valley had refined himself into an acquired Evil Poison Body.
During these six months, Qing Lin's cultivation has also greatly improved. With the help of the Green Snake's Three Flower Pupils, he has advanced from the fifth stage of fighting spirit to the peak of fighting master within half a year.
Although Qinglin's cultivation level improvement speed is not as fast as that of Xiao Yixian who has activated the evil poison body, with the help of Ziyan and Liekongzuo, he used the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils to subdue three fifth-level snake monsters, namely a fifth-level earth rock snake king, a fifth-level black water snake, and a fifth-level six-winged black snake king. The three snake pets complement each other and can exert their peak strength in most environments. It is not difficult to match some low-level Douhuang.
Chapter 109: Master Yun and Disciple
During the past six months, Zi Yan's cultivation has not improved much, but the originally lively and active Zi Yan has become more well-behaved recently.
Not only has her food intake greatly increased, but she is also often sleepy. Yao Chen's evaluation of this is that Zi Yan is now accumulating energy, and when the time is right, she will break through to the sixth-level magic beast.
Zi Yan also asked Yao Chen if he knew what race of Warcraft she was.
However, because it was impossible to observe Zi Yan's true form as a monster, even though Yao Chen had extraordinary knowledge, he was unable to accurately determine Zi Yan's race.
However, through half a year of observation, Yao Chen could still see that Zi Yan's bloodline was definitely extraordinary and was definitely not inferior to the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan and the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan among the three major races.
As for the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, they are too mysterious and live in the turbulence of the void. Even Yao Chen has never seen a Taixu Ancient Dragon with his own eyes, and knows very little about them, so he is unable to judge whether Zi Yan is related to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan.
During Xiao Ling's retreat, a piece of news of varying magnitude came out of the Xiao family.
Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao family, solved his problem of being unable to practice with the help of the sixth-rank alchemist Xiao Ling.
It only took two months to cultivate from the third level of Dou Qi to the ninth level of Dou Qi.
After taking a pill of Qi Gathering Powder that Xiao Ling had left at the Xiao family, he successfully condensed the Fighting Qi vortex and his cultivation level recovered to the Fighter level.
After another four months of training, not only did his cultivation level break through to the three-star fighter level, he also became a first-class alchemist.
Although Xiao Yan's cultivation had fallen to the third stage of Dou Qi before, and he had wasted two and a half years of cultivation time, he was able to become a three-star Dou Zhe at the age of fifteen, and was also a first-grade alchemist. In the Jia Ma Empire, he was considered a rare genius.
When talking about Xiao Yan, one will naturally think of his fiancée, the eldest daughter of the Nalan family, Nalan Yanran.
In the past, the Xiao family was just a declining family in the Jia Ma Empire. Even though Xiao Yan was once extremely talented, no one took their engagement seriously.
Now, with the rapid rise of Xiao Ling, the Xiao family has become a force in the Jia Ma Empire that is not inferior to the three major families. It also maintains good relations with the major families in the imperial capital.
The engagement between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran was once again talked about by everyone.
One is the young master of the Yunlan Sect, and the other is the third young master of the Xiao family. Both of them are extremely talented and can be considered a well-matched couple.
After staying in the Jia Ma Empire for half a year, with the identity of the third young master of the Xiao family, his cultivation talent has been restored and his strength has also been significantly improved. With Yao Yue's introduction, Xiao Yan also met many young people from major families in the imperial capital. However, half a year has passed and Xiao Yan has not met Nalan Yanran.
Xiao Yan was very curious about his childhood fiancée.
According to the descriptions of the new friends he had made, Nalan Yanran not only had an excellent talent for cultivation, but was also quite pretty. Many young people in the imperial capital were admirers of Nalan Yanran.
Although Xiao Yan is a time traveler, he has received nine years of compulsory education, has correct values, and advocates free love.
However, if he was really arranged to have a beautiful fiancée, as long as Xiao Yan liked her and their personalities were compatible, he would not refuse.
The Nalan family also wanted to arrange for the two to have more contact, but Nalan Yanran refused on the grounds of cultivation.
……
The Yunlan Sect is the most powerful force in the Jiama Empire. The uninterrupted inheritance from generation to generation has made this ancient sect stand at the top of the Jiama Empire.
If it weren't for the sect's rules that prohibit the seizure of the emperor's power, I'm afraid that during the previous changes of imperial dynasties, the Yunlan Sect would have completely controlled the entire Gama Empire.
Although it does not control the entire empire, the Yunlan Sect's status in the Jiama Empire is unquestionable.
The Yunlan Sect was built on the Yunlan Mountain, which is only a few dozen miles away from the imperial capital. It was chosen by the Yunlan Sect as the sect's address, so Yunlan Mountain must be a Feng Shui treasure land.
Yunlan Mountain is not just an isolated peak. There are many mountains around it, but it is the tallest. Just when the surrounding mountains are bowing to the sky, it suddenly appears like a sword, pointing straight to the blue sky.
As if challenging the sky, the top of the mountain that emerges from the clouds is surrounded by clusters of suspended white clouds like an island.
The top of Yunlan Mountain.
On the steep mountain top shrouded in clouds and mist, a graceful figure is looming in the mist.
The woman wears a tight-fitting brocade robe with gold trim and purple, and three thousand blue silk hair. She is pulled up into the shape of a phoenix. She has a hint of nobility that is difficult to conceal. Her face is quiet and beautiful, like a clear spring in the secluded mountain, which makes people feel indifferent because of her status. While he was noble and awe-inspiring, he couldn't help but feel a little fondness.
As the woman was looking at the clouds in front of her in deep thought, the sound of footsteps came from behind her.
The woman turned around and looked at the person who came.
The person who came was a young girl, with a cold and beautiful appearance, and a pretty face like a fairy. She was wearing a moon-white dress, and her delicate body was well-proportioned.
There is a green jade pendant hanging from the delicate earlobe. When it is shaken slightly, it makes a crisp jade sound, suddenly showing a touch of elegance.
Seeing that there seemed to be a trace of sadness on the girl's face, the woman asked in confusion.
"Yanran, didn't you go home yesterday? Why do you seem unhappy? Did you have a conflict with your family?"
When Nalan Yanran heard her teacher's question, she couldn't help but think of the instructions her father and grandfather gave her when she returned home, and her heart couldn't help but feel sad.
"Teacher, you know that I have an engagement, right?"
"Well, I heard you say that, could it be related to this matter?" Yun Yun frowned and asked in confusion. She knew that her apprentice had an engagement, but it seemed that this apprentice had always been resistant to the engagement and rarely mentioned it.
Hearing Yun Yun's question, Nalan Yanran took a deep breath and said, "The person I'm engaged to is Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao family."
Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao family.
As soon as Nalan Yanran said this, Yun Yun felt as if she had heard this name before. Soon, an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she thought of a piece of information that had been presented to her not long ago.
Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao family, solved his previous problem of being unable to practice after being treated by Xiao Ling, and also showed extremely strong talent. Not only did it take him only half a year to practice from the third stage of Dou Qi to a three-star Dou Zhe, he also became a first-grade alchemist.
Yun Yun blurted out, "Xiao Yan, the third young master of the Xiao family, is the cousin of Master Xiao Ling!"
Chapter 110: Deciding to Break Off the Engagement
"That's right, he is the monster who is said to be the only one in a thousand years in the Jiama Empire, Xiao Ling's cousin. This time when he returned to the family, my grandfather asked me to find time to go there when I am free, to get engaged!" Thinking of this, a trace of sadness appeared on Nalan Yanran's soft and pretty face.
Yun Yun understood what was said. This recognition of kinship was fake, and the real purpose was to improve the relationship between the two families.
According to the intelligence from the Yunlan Sect, she has learned that Xiao Ling from the Xiao family is a Dou Wang powerful warrior and also a sixth-rank alchemist.
A teenage Dou Wang warrior, a sixth-rank alchemist, should not be underestimated even by the Yunlan Sect.
There are also rumors that Xiao Ling has subdued a strange fire and can refine a sect-breaking pill. The royal family's Jia Xingtian had previously asked him to refine one.
In fact, Yun Yun had heard of Xiao Ling's name a long time ago, but Xiao Ling's talent was too exaggerated at the time, so she thought it was just a rumor from some small place, and only sent two deacons from the Yunlan Sect to investigate the situation, and did not take it too seriously.
By the time the deacon confirmed the situation and reported the news back to Yunlan Sect, Xiao Ling had already gone to Canaan College. It was too late for Xiao Ling to take advantage of the opportunity to recruit him.
The situations of all the major forces in the Jiama Empire were not much different from that of the Yunlan Sect, and they missed out on an unparalleled genius in vain.
Regardless of what Yun Yun thought, Nalan Yanran in front of her struggled internally for a while before speaking in a firm tone: "Teacher, I want to cancel the engagement!"
