From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 178: The Three Methods of the Lijian Sect
The treasure ship traveled on the Cloud Road, and it took a day and a night to travel from Turtle Mountain in the Huai River to the Happy Fish Land in Taicang.

Yu Shuyang and his companions would naturally not return to the blessed land, but they would head south from the Huai River to Mingzhou Chaoguan, and they would definitely pass through the sky above Taicang.

Both Yu's father and mother looked disgusted, and Yu Shuyang didn't dare to disturb them, so he retreated back to his cabin.

During this time, he cast a spell to summon the Candlefire Spirit Wanjia and Zhixian Tuliu over. He first asked them some questions to find out about the two little demons' recent situation, and then gave them the spiritual materials for cultivation.

What Yu Shuyang didn't expect was that Wan Jia was not learning how to cook in the kitchen, but how to make elixirs.

At the beginning, Li Taiping saw that his four fires were mixed and his fire was impure, so he couldn't refine the elixir. The little demon of the Wan family was also very hot-tempered, and he wanted to learn how to refine the elixir whenever he found an opportunity.

At this time, three demon fairies came to take charge of the ship. Among them was a demon fairy invited from Chaoju City. Among the followers he brought with him to take care of his daily life, there was an alchemist.

The Wan family set their sights on him and, after a few days of persuasion, saw that he sincerely wanted to learn, they tried to teach him some basic skills.

Alchemy is the most important of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. The knowledge involved is vast and complex, and is divided into categories according to the materials used in alchemy: gold and stone, flesh and blood, plants and trees, and Yuan Qi.

If it is based on the alchemy techniques, in addition to refining the elixir by burning fire, there are also water refining, earth refining, wood refining, and gold refining. If it is based on the method of taking the elixir, it is divided into internal elixir and external elixir.

In short, it is extremely complicated. Each has its own legal principles and legal lineages. The recipes used are different, and the pills refined are also different.

Teach the Wan family's alchemist how to use various pearls as medicine and make pills by steaming and boiling. Fortunately, the pills are also made by burning fire, so the candlelight spirit can also try it.

From then on, the Wan family became acquainted with the art of fire-making. They would each control the temperature of the fire in the back kitchen stove. He had four kinds of fire in his belly - room fire, wood fire, spark fire, and candle fire.

If you want to control the timing, you have to burn it one fire at a time and understand the temperament and characteristics of the four types of fire.

Yu Shuyang did not stop him. He took this opportunity to hone his fire nature and break the limitations of the fire spirits' cultivation. He also deduced for them the method of combining the four fires into the four divine quail and phoenix.

He called the three students back. When Yu Zangfeng left earlier, he was still behind them, but he didn't expect that he had caught up now.

"I heard that you have all passed the Nine Tribulations, and it's time to choose a cultivation method for you. I haven't been on the treasure ship these days.

Now I want to hear what each of you thinks." Yu Shuyang said, looking at the three students.

In fact, he had already deduced the technique long ago, and had also obtained the spiritual materials for refining the talisman from the academy. He was asking now just to examine his character.

It was the eldest disciple, Jin Bupa, who spoke first: "Sir, of course we will practice whatever you teach us. We have no other ideas."

Jin Bu's destiny is to be tempered by fire. He speaks and acts from his true nature. He looks reckless but is actually a meticulous person with a rough but careful mind.

Yu Shuyang then looked at his second disciple, Yu Lishui, and said, "Have you thought clearly whether to practice the Gold Method or the Water Method?"

"Sir, practice the golden method." Yu Lishui said coldly as usual.

"Tell me why you chose the gold method. Gold and water are mutually beneficial. Isn't the water method good? I practice the water method." Yu Shuyang continued to ask.

He had high expectations of Yu Lishui. He had been somewhat displeased with Yu Lishui's wavering between the gold method and the water method, so he couldn't help but ask him again.

"Since the practice of swordsmanship is inseparable from the metal method, even though you practice the water method, you haven't abandoned the metal method. It shows that you still have to practice the metal method."

Yu Lishui spoke in a manner that was out of character, her tone still cold.

"Cang Feng, why don't you say anything? I remember you were the one who rushed to answer in the past." Yu Shuyang turned his head and looked at his third apprentice.

Yu Zangfeng chuckled and said with a bit of shame: "When I was a student, I was ignorant and always liked to compete. This time, breaking through the Nine Tribulations has made me understand a lot.

If you don't have strong abilities, it's useless to fight for them; in the end, it's your true abilities that count."

Yu Shuyang nodded, still possessing the temperament of a Gold Element cultivator, able to charge forward without hesitation. Even though he seemed to be hesitant and weighed things carefully before doing anything, there was still a stubborn determination in his nature that wouldn't turn back once he'd made up his mind.

"Today, I will officially teach you the Dharma. I don't have any magical instruments to pass on to you, so you will need to practice and refine them yourself in the future.

Boss, you are destined to be burned by gold and fire. I will teach you the Gold Fire Flying Thunder Method. From now on, you can forge 39,000 Geng Gold Needles and refine them into Thunder Fire Flying Gold Needles."

Yu Shuyang wrote down the method of cultivation in a book, and also wrote down the method of refining the Thunder Fire Flying Golden Needle, and gave him the spiritual materials for refining the talisman.

He then said to Yu Lishui, "Second Brother, your life number is metal and water. I will teach you the Golden Elixir Thunder Water Method. This method does not cultivate metal or water, but generates thunder from metal and water.

Use the golden water sand and silver gold sand to refine a gourd of thunder sand, which contains a golden elixir sword made of five metals. The sword and elixir are one, and the thunder sand is like water, which can be used for both attack and defense.

After saying that, he handed him the cultivation method and spiritual materials. Looking at Yu Lishui's surprised expression, Yu Shuyang couldn't help but smile.

Then he said to Yu Zangfeng, "You are a hidden gem. Your talent is no worse than theirs, but you just can't hide your temper.

It is a blessing for you to have gained some insights after breaking through the Nine Tribulations. You must remember that gold hidden in the earth does not grow from the earth. Remember this very well.

After listening to his master's words, Yu Zangfeng nodded hurriedly. Only now did he understand the profound meaning of changing his name.

"I will teach you the Golden Magnetism and Electric Light Method. You can use a piece of white jade and a piece of metal stone to make a pair of gold and jade grinding wheels.

This millstone can generate golden magnetism and electric light. It can collect metals and grind them into golden sand. It can also breed golden magnetism and electric light. The millstone is the golden magnetism and electric light magic sword.

They both practice thunder magic, but you're the only one practicing electric magic. Do you have any objections?" Yu Shuyang said with a smile.

"I dare not. Since the master taught me this kind of martial arts, the electric method must be more suitable for me." Yu Zangfeng said respectfully.

Yu Shuyang nodded, then taught him the spiritual materials and the martial arts manual, and said to the three students: "From now on, the three of you will be my disciples of the sword. The inheritance of the master has its own rules.

Our sect is called the Killer Sect. The word "killer" does not mean assassin, but killer swordsmanship. The sect has always passed down the Yin-Yang Killing Swordsmanship.

Even though you are accepted into my sect today, you are of the same family by blood and brothers in the sect. There are three sect rules that you must remember.

First, you are not allowed to betray your sect or join another religion. If you disobey, you will be killed.

Second, respect teachers and be friendly to fellow students. Anyone who plots against teachers or bullies fellow students will be killed.

Third, the Dharma cannot be passed on personally, and the Tao cannot be taught randomly. Anyone who teaches the Dharma without the permission of the master will be killed.

You need to keep this in mind, and when you open your doors to accept disciples in the future, you must tell them as well.”

All three students knelt on the ground and responded in unison.

Yu Shuyang added, "You are all disciples of the Dharma now, so I must tell you the origin of the Dharma lineage.

The ancestor of our killer sect is called Lang Qing Jianshi. The two swords of the sect, Killing and Life, were learned by him from watching the Yin Yang Fan Dragon Beard outside the sky.

This Yin-Yang Fan, also known as the Yin-Yang Dragon Beard Fan, is the magic weapon of the Great Sage of Innate Morality. We have another connection with the Moral Sect.

Therefore, there is an unwritten rule in the sect that when one sees a descendant of the Daode sect, one must lower oneself to a lower level and treat the latter with respect as a teacher."

The three disciples were stunned when they heard this. Jin Bupa asked, "Then how should we address Uncle Li from now on?"

　There are too many chapters and I can’t write long chapters.
