I am a mortal who has achieved enlightenment through burning my secrets

Chapter 345 Mentor Ruolin
Black Corner!
Above flying magical beasts!

Taking advantage of the academy's renewed enrollment opportunity, Xiao Wuji was honored to become a student of Canaan Academy, and even his tutor was someone he had specially selected.

On the flying magical beast, Ruolin looked at Xiao Wuji, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the medicine cauldron, calmly refining medicine, and couldn't help but tease him: "I've always heard Yu'er talking about her young master. When you go back this time, I'm afraid quite a few people will be heartbroken!"

Xiao Wuji calmly withdrew the fire and retrieved the pill, placing the pill with the seven-colored pattern into a jade bottle and sealing it with flames.

"Really? I didn't expect that Yu'er, with such mediocre talent, would have so many people liking her?"

Xiao Wuji's words made Ruolin frown. Xiao Yu was her favorite student, the most talented student in the entire outer academy, and her cultivation would soon break through to the Dou Ling realm, far surpassing Xiao Wuji's five-star Great Dou Master. How could Xiao Wuji describe her as having only average talent? This made her want to speak up for Xiao Yu.

"Yu'er's talent is far superior to yours. By the time you get there, she might already be a Dou Ling!"

"Tch~ Just an ordinary fighting spirit!"

Xiao Wuji sneered, then shook the jade bottle in his hand and said, "After taking this pill, you will also become a Dou Ling!"

"Eat ten of them, and I can guarantee you'll cultivate all the way to the Nine-Star Dou Ling level! If you don't believe me, you can try!"

With that, Xiao Wuji tossed the pill in his hand in front of Ruolin, then took out a bunch of spiritual herbs from his storage ring and threw them into the fire cauldron, continuing to refine them without a second thought. This time, he used several new flames.

Manipulating different types of flames can also serve as practice for fire control.

However, Xiao Wuji's arrogant behavior completely extinguished any remaining goodwill Ruolin had for the genius student.

"Wuji, you'd better not be too arrogant. There are plenty of students like you in the inner academy!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuji raised an eyebrow and feigned surprise, saying, "So, there are so many fifth-grade alchemists in Canaan Academy? It seems I really came to the right place!"

"I wonder how many sixth-grade alchemists there are in our academy? To be honest, my alchemy skills are only a hair's breadth away from the sixth grade! If someone could give me some pointers, I might be able to break through to the sixth grade right away!"

Xiao Wuji wanted to tease this gentle and lovely older saintess who resembled a married woman. Of course, it would be best if he could coax her into bed with just some pills.

"Are you a fifth-grade alchemist?" Ruolin looked at Xiao Wuji with some suspicion, feeling that something was off about him. How could a fifth-grade alchemist be so young?

"Of course, otherwise how do you think I made Xiao Yu cultivate so quickly! Her talent isn't even as good as yours!"

"Hehe!" Ruolin chuckled twice and walked to the other houses on the back of the flying magical beast. She was now somewhat unwilling to pay attention to this young man who was full of boastful talk.

Watching Ruolin's departing figure, Xiao Wuji smiled without saying a word, silently estimating the distance to Canaan Academy. It should still be enough time for him to enjoy the air once more. Then, he quietly added a few more medicinal herbs to the cauldron where the flames were condensing, summoned two more beast fires, and quietly lifted some of the seals on the fire cauldron.

Pills begin to produce unusual phenomena from the fifth grade onwards. However, the unusual phenomena of fifth-grade pills are weak and can be concealed by a good cauldron, let alone the fire cauldron he personally condensed.

Half a day later, an unusually dense energy fluctuation was rapidly forming on the back of the flying magical beast.

Sensing the fluctuation, the Dou Wang instructor guarding the flying magical beast rushed in immediately. Of course, Ruolin, who was only a wall away from the energy fluctuation, was even faster!
Almost the instant Ruolin stepped into the room, with a loud bang, a beam of energy about half a foot long shot out from the room, finally breaking through the ceiling and soaring into the sky.

Under the impact of this energy, the flying magical beast beneath her also lost control, the house began to shake violently, and Ruolin lost her balance and knelt down in front of the fire cauldron with a thud.

Then, Xiao Wuji dispersed the fire cauldron and reached out to grab one of the nine-colored pills.

Boom!

With a loud crash, the entire house collapsed, and Ruolin was instantly thrown from the floor toward the ceiling, along with the pill that Xiao Wuji had brushed past with his fingertip. Ruolin's body slammed heavily against the ceiling, and she couldn't help but open her mouth to let out a scream, but before the scream could even be heard, something fell into her mouth.

It melts in your mouth and even crawls inside on its own; before you know it, it's all gone!
The next moment, two fingers were forcefully shoved into her mouth, and they even tried to shove them into her throat. Fortunately, her mouth was small enough that the fingers couldn't fit in, and the owner of the hand didn't succeed.

"Stop it!"

With a loud shout from the Douwang mentor outside, the house returned to its normal position, and the two figures crashed from the roof to the floor.

"Ugh~"

Due to inertia, the finger moved further in, causing Ruolin to feel immediate physical discomfort.

"Pooh!"

Pulling Xiao Wuji's hand away, Ruolin glared at him and said angrily, "You bastard, what are you doing?!"

Xiao Wuji said somewhat innocently, "Take my pills!"

Finally, he didn't forget to add, "A sixth-grade elixir!"

After a while, the Battle King instructor finally came in. Looking at the teachers and students on their mounts, he couldn't help but cover his face and say, "Hey you two, what time is it? Even if your fire is burning fiercely, you should at least consider how your flying magical beasts feel."

"Also, can anyone tell me what happened?"

Ruolin heard the voice behind her and was about to get up when her fighting spirit began to surge uncontrollably, almost instantly crossing the threshold of the Fighting Spirit realm, and the rate of increase did not slow down at all.

After a dozen or so breaths, her cultivation finally stalled at the third-level Dou Wang realm. This terrifying change made her forget to get up for a moment. Until…

Xiao Wuji said with some regret, "A sixth-grade pill, the Nine-Turn Azure Spirit Pill! Its effect is to allow a one-star Dou Ling to break through to Dou Wang in one go, or to allow a Dou Wang to increase their cultivation by at least three stars without any side effects. The medicinal effect is rapid and can be used repeatedly. It's a pity that your cultivation technique is too poor and your Dou Qi is not refined enough, which is why you broke through to the third star of Dou Wang in one go!"

"I... I've become a Battle King?" Ruolin sensed the battle energy within her body, somewhat incredulous.

Equally unbelievable was the mentor with the cultivation level of a Dou Wang. He had gone through countless hardships to become a Dou Wang, yet Ruolin had only taken one pill.
However, before he could even utter a few words of reflection, the sounds coming from the outside world caused his expression to change drastically.

"Haha, so it's the Canaan Academy's recruitment team. Looks like this is our chance to strike it rich!"

The loud voice instantly ruined Xiao Wuji's experience. He was finally about to find a chance to get to base, how could he let a few scoundrels disturb him?
With a thought, two Dou Zong puppets clad in black robes appeared above the flying magical beast.

"A bunch of scum, daring to steal from me!"

"The item belongs to me!"

The two puppets started fighting without warning, and the timing of their attack was extremely clever. The aftershocks of the battle even affected the few Battle Kings who had just arrived.

He obtained this puppet from the tomb of the Creation Saint. He has several more. He used the aftermath of the Battle of the Dou Zong to conceal his identity. I'm really clever.
