Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 160 Yun Yun: Do I still need to take the initiative? (Part 2)

With one question answered, another arose in Gu He's mind: Could it be that the Mittel family also had a powerful alchemist? Otherwise, why would they exchange for a sixth-grade beast fire?

Jia Xingtian shook his head slightly: "Although the conditions offered by the Mittel family were very tempting, I did not make a deal with them."

"Why?" Guhe immediately put aside his thoughts and asked.

Jia Xingtian patiently explained, "During that period, the royal family's Yaoyue had just extracted beast fire from the guardian beast in preparation for this year's alchemist conference, so naturally she couldn't extract it again in a short time."

"However, some time has passed since this incident. If Dan Wang Guhe really wants it, there is a way, but this method would be too harmful to the magical beast." Jia Xingtian sighed, as if he felt very sorry for his guardian beast and was quite reluctant to part with it.

Since Jia Xingtian didn't immediately declare a death, Gu He knew perfectly well that after all that back and forth, Jia Xingtian was simply dissatisfied with the price Gu He had offered earlier.

Gu He gritted his teeth and said with considerable pain, "I am willing to offer one more Dou Ling Pill and some fire-attribute medicinal liquid to accelerate the recovery speed of the primordial fire within the royal magical beasts."

Jia Xingtian hesitated for a moment before standing up and saying, "For the sake of the Pill King, the royal family should suffer some losses. Once the beast fire is extracted, I will send someone to deliver it to the Yunlan Sect."

"In that case, thank you very much, Elder Jia. I'll go back and refine the Battle Spirit Pill first." Gu He gave a forced smile and left the main hall.

Watching Gu He's departing figure, Jia Xingtian's eyes revealed a deep worry and unease. The Mittel family and the Yunlan Sect both wanted sixth-order beast fire; these forces were truly growing stronger and stronger.

Extracting the beast fire would take several days. After returning to the Yunlan Sect, Gu He composed himself, feeling frustrated at being tricked by Jia Xingtian, and immediately prepared to begin refining the medicine.

After all, his next task was quite demanding.

Not only do I need to refine a pill based on an ancient prescription for Yun Yun's disciple, but I also need to refine three Battle Spirit Pills for the Jia Ma royal family.

Even for a sixth-grade alchemist like him, refining high-grade pills at such a high frequency puts considerable pressure on him.

Compared to the things refined by Pill King Guhe, what Xiao Yan is about to make is hundreds of times more precious.

As he rubbed the Bone Flame Ring on his hand, Xiao Yan's smile grew wider and wider.

[Through your research and deduction of storage rings, storage stones, and the application of spatial power, you have had an epiphany; you have grasped the method for creating beast storage rings.]

[Beast Storage Ring Manufacturing Method: Multiple storage spaces are combined using a secret method and ultimately refined into a bracelet. The quality of the beast storage ring is greatly influenced by the materials used and the refining techniques employed.]

Xiao Yan slowly exhaled a breath of stale air. Studying this thing had taken a lot of his effort.

In fact, according to the description of spatial power recorded in the Bone Inflame Ring's internal texts, he could easily create many methods for making beast storage rings.

Methods are methods, but the user's ability is also an extremely important factor.

If he were a Dou Zun level expert, those methods would naturally be a win-win situation, and he could implement them immediately.

But right now he is only a Dou Huang, and even if he is a Dou Zong who can make initial contact with the power of space, he still has a long way to go.

Therefore, we can only put more effort into backward compatibility.

Xiao Yan got up and walked to the corner, picked up the inconspicuous gray sack, and instantly turned it upside down.

With a whoosh, countless strangely colored gemstones were poured out of the sack. Under the illumination of the moonstone, the entire cave was illuminated with colorful light, making it extremely beautiful.

"Refinement, begin." Xiao Yan sat cross-legged beside the pile of storage stones, waved his sleeve to control two storage stones, and flicked his finger to shoot out a cluster of flames, which enveloped them.

With extensive experience in crafting puppets, Xiao Yan felt no panic at all, even though crafting Na Stones was a newly established category of casting. He focused his attention on sensing the condition of the two Na Stones.

Under the intense burning of the strange fire, the material containing space, Nashi, gradually showed signs of melting.

Seeing the Na Stones begin to melt, Xiao Yan quickly formed several hand seals and struck the two Na Stones in mid-air.

After the seal was applied, a silver luster slowly emerged at the junction of the two Na stones, with fine runes layered upon each other, and the two Na stones miraculously began to merge.

After a short while, the two Nashi stones shrank by more than half in size and merged into a red bead the size of a bean, shimmering with precious light, which was quite extraordinary.

After examining the space inside the small bead, Xiao Yan found it to be twice the size of an ordinary storage stone, which put him in a great mood.

After rubbing the small red bead for a while, Xiao Yan said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity that Elder Yao only knows how to refine medicine and has no experience in weapon forging. Otherwise, I would have just let him take the plunge."

With a flick of his finger, Xiao Yan tossed the small bead into the air and continued fusing the Na Stone.

Two Nagastones are far from enough to create a space large enough to house a monster.

As the Na Stone continued to integrate, Xiao Yan gained more and more experience, and his speed naturally increased.

Despite the increase in the number of Nashi stones, their volume did not increase much. During the calcination process by the strange fire, their overall volume continued to shrink as many impurities were removed.

Just as Xiao Yan was working hard to refine the beast storage device, Yun Yun, who had returned to the Yunlan Sect, finished dealing with some piled-up affairs, took a good shower and then sat elegantly in front of the dressing table.

Looking at her stunningly beautiful face reflected in the bronze mirror, Yun Yun was lost in thought.

She had hardly paid attention to these external things in the past, but after the trip to the Monster Mountain Range, a question couldn't help but pop into Yun Yun's mind.

Is she beautiful or not?

Although many people think she is beautiful to some extent, Yunyun still has some self-doubt.

Looking at it closely now, Yun Yun nodded with considerable certainty. Even as a woman, she couldn't help but feel a little moved after looking at it for so long.

The woman in the bronze mirror had delicate features, bright eyes and white teeth, and a graceful, alluring figure. The blue begonia flowers embroidered on her bodice were in full bloom, mysterious and captivating.

Her thin nightgown revealed glimpses of her skin, making her fair and delicate skin even more striking.

A white silk ribbon was tied around her willow-like waist, making her full hips appear exceptionally rounded, giving her an air of elegance and nobility.

Thinking of the promise she made to Yao Yan to tempt her into cultivation, Yun Yun couldn't help but blush: "Such a beautiful person, do I really need to take the initiative..."

With a soft hum, Yun Yun rose, her bare, snow-white feet barely touching the ground, and gracefully walked towards the bed.

Her sexy and alluring legs, even without stockings, made her skin appear even whiter, more delicate, fuller, and rounder, and her every movement was breathtaking.

As the sun gradually rises, a faint golden hue appears on the horizon, painting the skyline with a warm hue.

The morning glow was like brocade, brilliant yet gentle, intertwining with the morning mist, creating a dreamlike painting.

After a night of refining, Guhe's alchemy room was the first to stir, with a rich aroma of medicine wafting out from within.

"This is the Purple Crystal Pill?" Gu He looked at the crystal-like pill floating in his palm and was greatly intrigued.

The outer shell of the magic core used in ordinary alchemy also has some crystals, but they will melt after being heated by flames.

Normally, Gu He would have studied it carefully, but now he has a heavy task ahead of him, and he still has three Battle Spirit Pills to refine.

After examining it briefly, Gu He put it into a jade bottle and had someone deliver it to Yun Yun's disciple.

Upon seeing this, Liu Ling, who had originally wanted to ask some questions, immediately took the item from the servant Yang Fujiang and personally delivered it to Nalan Yanran.

After traversing a mountain path, they arrived at the cliff where Nalan Yanran often cultivated. Liu Ling's already effeminate face instantly became gloomy.

At the foot of the cliff, a man exclaimed in admiration, "Junior Sister Yanran, to be able to master a mid-level Xuan-rank combat skill like the Wind Spirit Fractal Sword in just half a year, your talent is truly astonishing."

"Senior Brother Mo Li is joking. I have only just mastered it. I am still far from being able to use the sword form and unleash the true power of this fighting technique," Nalan Yanran replied calmly, without showing any joy at the man's praise.

Seeing Nalan Yanran's performance, Liu Ling's gloom lessened considerably, and she once again put on a warm smile as she walked over.

"Junior Sister Yanran, the pills you requested have been refined by your teacher."

"Really!" Nalan Yanran turned around with great surprise, her eyes, like black pearls, sparkling as she looked at the exquisite jade bottle in Liu Ling's hand.

Liu Ling said with a smile, "After obtaining the materials, the teacher worked through the night to refine this precious grade-five pill."

Upon seeing the newcomer, Mo Li maintained a smile on the surface, but his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

The Mo family behind him has been growing in influence in Northeast China in recent years, but compared to Liu Ling in front of him, they are far inferior.

Because Liu Ling's teacher is Dan Wang Gu He, a very important figure throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire.

In terms of talent, appearance, and status, Liu Ling is the most suitable person to Nalan Yanran, the future sect leader.

Looking at the girl who was overjoyed as she took the pill, Mo Li kindly said, "Junior Sister Yanran, you have only just broken through to the second-star Dou Zhe stage. Taking pills at this time will inevitably make your Dou Qi unstable. The most important thing for us in cultivation is to take it one step at a time."

"Junior Brother Mo Li." Liu Ling glanced at this arrogant person and said indifferently, "It's normal that you don't understand the abilities of alchemists since you're not an alchemist."

"This pill is based on an ancient medicinal formula that my teacher, Pill King Guhe, found in a hidden mountain cave. After repeated confirmation, it was found that the pill made from this formula is perfect for Junior Sister Yanran, who is a beginner-level fighter." Liu Ling looked at Nalan Yanran with a slightly dazed expression.

Nalan Yanran simply couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the subtle tension between the two.

Right now, all she wants to do is focus on her cultivation so that she will have more confidence to break off her engagement.

"Senior brothers, you can continue your conversation. I'm going to cultivate now." Holding the jade bottle, Nalan Yanran took her leave and immediately used the Flying Willow Movement Technique to gracefully move towards her residence.

Once Nalan Yanran's figure had completely disappeared, the two people who had been smiling just moments before suddenly changed their expressions drastically.

"Recently, due to the Alchemist Conference, I haven't had much time to spend with Yanran. But once I win the championship of this year's Alchemist Conference, my teacher will ask the sect leader to mention the marriage between me and Yanran." Liu Ling looked at Mo Li with a gloomy expression. "You'd better have some self-awareness."

Seeing Liu Ling turn and leave without giving him any chance to retaliate, Mo Li's angry eyes gradually turned bloodshot, and his fists clenched tightly, making a cracking sound.

"They actually don't take me seriously at all!"

"Just wait, Liu Ling. Once Nalan Yanran truly becomes my woman, who in this Jia Ma Empire will dare to be above me? Even your teacher, Gu He, is nothing more than a dog from the Yunlan Sect who knows how to concoct medicine."

A secret ambition quietly rose in his heart, and Mo Li's anger subsided considerably.

Back in her room, Nalan Yanran ordered her servants not to disturb her. She closed the door, sat cross-legged on the bed, and slowly uncorked the jade bottle in her hand.

In an instant, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out. Just by taking a light sniff, Nalan Yanran felt her fighting spirit increase noticeably.

"Xiao Yan, what are the geniuses of Wutan City compared to you? Do you possess the advanced cultivation techniques and fighting skills of the Yunlan Sect? Can you, as a sixth-grade alchemist like Pill King Gu He, refine pills to aid cultivation?"

Thinking of the advanced Xuan-rank cultivation technique she had practiced and the series of Xuan-rank combat skills that came with it, Nalan Yanran's exquisite face flushed with excitement.

Her small, developing breasts rose and fell with each movement.

"I want to take control of my own marriage!" Nalan Yanran poured out the pills from the jade bottle, gritted her teeth, and swallowed the still slightly hot pills in one gulp.

As the pill entered her throat, it instantly transformed into a surge of heat that rushed down her body. Nalan Yanran let out a muffled groan, her pretty face turning bright red, like a perfectly cooked shrimp.

This wasn't her first time taking pills, but this pill contained far more energy than the fourth-grade Qi Gathering Powder!

Nalan Yanran's slender fingers swiftly formed a cultivation hand seal, and she immediately began to circulate the most profound Xuan-rank advanced cultivation technique of the Yunlan Sect.

As the cultivation technique was activated, the immense medicinal power instantly flowed into the meridians like countless rivers flowing into the sea, and finally poured into the Dou Qi vortex according to the technique.

Nalan Yanran could clearly sense that after taking this pill, although her body became very hot, the energy of heaven and earth she absorbed seemed to have been refined, and was much purer than before.

In fact, this is precisely the main effect of the Purple Crystal Pill.

By absorbing the special flame power from the Purple Crystal Winged Lion over many years, the Purple Spirit Crystal can refine the energy of heaven and earth, greatly improving the cultivator's cultivation efficiency.

-

The person who went with Nalan Yanran to annul the engagement was Mo Li from the Mo family, not Liu Ling.

Animation studios cut corners on modeling; those who know, know.

The modified version of "The Heavenly Realm" turned Mo Cheng, the Grand Elder of the Mo Clan, from a mere Dou Ling into a Dou Huang...
