People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Hearing this, Xiao Ling's mouth curled up slightly, and he replied lightly: "Haha, that's not my new companion. He has an owner. He is the guardian beast of the Jia Ma Empire, the You Hai Jiao Beast."

Then, Xiao Ling told them about his trip to the Jiama Palace to help the Youhai Jiao Beast heal its wounds. In order to express his gratitude for helping it heal its wounds, the Youhai Jiao Beast personally sent him back to the Xiao family.

After listening to Xiao Ling's narration, Xiao Yixiang and Qing Lin both had a clear understanding of the ins and outs of the matter.

The Little Medical Fairy nodded slightly, with a hint of realization in her eyes: "I have heard of the name of the Nether Sea Flood Beast before, and it seems to be quite powerful."

Qing Lin also nodded and agreed, "Yes, I have heard other people occasionally mention this dark sea dragon beast before. Seeing what it looks like today can satisfy my curiosity."

As the figure of the dark sea dragon beast gradually walked away, the topic also came to an end. Xiao Ling then slowly turned his gaze to Xiao Yixiang and Qinglin. He keenly sensed that their aura had changed significantly compared to before.

Chapter 223 Qinglin and Xiaoyixian's Cultivation Progress

With Xiao Ling's careful perception, he found that Qing Lin's cultivation had reached Dou Wang four stars. Although such a speed of improvement was amazing in the eyes of ordinary people, considering Qing Lin's talent of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils, plus the rare elixir resources provided by Xiao Ling, such progress was within his expectations.

However, Xiao Ling was surprised by Xiao Yixian's progress. Not long ago, he helped her seal the poison in her body. After she absorbed the poison, her cultivation level jumped to Dou Huang five stars. However, after only a short period of time, Xiao Yixian had already leaped to the realm of eight-star Dou Huang.

Xiao Ling couldn't help but be amazed at the speed of improvement in his cultivation. It was indeed a special physique, it was really so terrifying.

Little Medical Fairy noticed the surprise on Xiao Ling's face. She smiled lightly and said playfully, "Hey, have you noticed the change in my cultivation?"

"I am really surprised," Xiao Ling smiled back, "Your progress is incredible."

A hint of pride flashed in Xiao Yixian's eyes, and she continued to explain: "The poisons you gave me before were not ordinary poisons. According to the formula in the Tianyou Poison Codex, they even have the power to kill ordinary Dou Zong. I took some special poisons, which is why my cultivation was able to improve so quickly."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly. Although he had expected that Little Medical Fairy's cultivation would improve after she inherited Xie Yun's legacy, the significant effect was beyond his expectation.

He stroked his chin and thought to himself, "A Dou Huang of the Wanxie Sect possesses such a rich resource of poisons. If we can wipe out the entire Wanxie Sect, we will surely be able to harvest a rich supply of precious poisons. This will undoubtedly bring great benefits to Xiao Yixian's cultivation path."

Thinking of this, Xiao Ling's desire to get rid of the Wanxie Sect became stronger.

Xiao Ling put away his thoughts and said to the Little Medical Fairy seriously: "Swallowing poison is not a joke, you must be careful. If you feel any discomfort, remember to stop immediately."

Then, he continued to ask with a concerned tone: "Since the poison gas in your body was sealed, have you ever felt the poison gas getting out of control during training?"

When Xiao Yixian heard Xiao Ling's concern, a touch of warmth flashed in her eyes. She knew that Xiao Ling cared more about her health than her cultivation improvement.

She gently brushed the silver hair behind her ears and replied softly, "Since the poison gas was sealed, my training has become much easier. The poison gas is no longer running around, and I should be able to completely control it."

The worry in Xiao Ling's heart dissipated. Although he did have some specific purposes when he first made friends with Xiao Yixian, Qinglin and others, as time went by, the warm daily life they experienced together made Xiao Ling regard them as family.

Those original intentions have now become blurred in his mind, replaced by deep emotions and mutual companionship.

Qinglin stood quietly by, watching the heartwarming conversation between Xiao Yixian and Xiao Ling with soft eyes. A hint of envy flashed in her eyes.

As if he had noticed Qinglin's gaze, Xiao Ling turned his head and his eyes fell on Qinglin. He reached out his hand and gently rubbed Qinglin's hair, with praise in his tone: "Qinglin, your cultivation has improved a lot during this period of time. I believe you must have worked very hard."

Qing Lin lowered her head shyly, with a faint blush on her face. She replied softly, "The pills that the young master made also helped a lot. Without them, I wouldn't have been able to improve my cultivation so quickly."

At this time, Zi Yan walked lightly to Xiao Ling's side, her small lips pouted slightly, and said with a playful look: "Xiao Ling, do you still remember the agreement between me and Sister Medusa? I am going to the snake tribe to find her now, I can't break my promise to anyone."

Xiao Ling raised his head, a hint of doting in his eyes, he nodded, and responded seriously: "Of course, you go, but remember our agreement, we must see you before we leave."

Zi Yan patted her flat chest confidently and said in a clear voice, "Don't worry, I am Miss Zi Yan who is punctual. I will never let you wait for me."

Her big watery eyes sparkled with anticipation as she looked straight at Xiao Ling, making Xiao Ling unable to help but reveal a helpless yet doting smile.

Xiao Ling shook his head gently, took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from his ring, stuffed it into Zi Yan's hand, and said in a pretended angry tone, "You little greedy cat, you always can't eat enough, don't be greedy again this time."

Zi Yan looked at the porcelain bottle in her hand, which was filled with the delicious pills that Xiao Ling had carefully prepared. A brighter smile appeared on her face, and she said happily: "Xiao Ling, you are so thoughtful. I know you understand me the best!"

After carefully putting those bottles and jars into the ring, Zi Yan jumped lightly, hugged Xiao Ling's arm like a naughty little deer, and gently kissed him on the cheek. Then, a pair of purple fighting wings spread out behind her, flew into the air, and said to Xiao Ling playfully: "This is the reward I give you."

Xiao Ling gently brushed his cheek, wiping away the wet traces left by Zi Yan. He said in a tone of pretending to be disgusted: "Haha, you are such a naughty ghost."

Zi Yan stopped joking with Xiao Ling. She turned around and waved in the direction of Xiao Yixiang and Qing Lin with a bright smile on her face.

"Okay, I'll be leaving now. Xian'er, Qinglin, we'll see each other soon." Zi Yan's words were full of anticipation and vitality. She waved her hands and lightly flapped the fighting wings behind her, slowly rising into the air.

After reaching a certain height, Zi Yan's figure suddenly turned, and her purple fighting wings, driven by her power, shook vigorously, and her speed increased instantly. She turned into a purple lightning, cutting through the sky, so fast that it was difficult to catch her figure.

As the purple afterimage gradually faded away, Zi Yan's figure finally disappeared from the sight of Xiao Ling and the other two. Only her cheerful laughter remained, which seemed to still echo in the ears of the three.

Xiao Ling looked at the disappearing purple afterimage, smiled helplessly, and said: "Even at such an old age, Zi Yan still has such a childish personality."

Upon hearing this, the little medical fairy at the side had a teasing gleam in her eyes, and she teased, "Isn't this kind of personality more likable? I see you like it quite a bit."

Xiao Ling naturally heard the hidden joke in Xiao Yixian's words. A trace of embarrassment passed across his face, and he coughed twice, cleverly avoiding the topic. He turned and looked into the distance, as if thinking about something, or perhaps admiring the tranquility left behind by Zi Yan's departure.

Seeing this, Xiao Yixiang raised the corners of her mouth slightly. She did not continue to tease Xiao Ling. She felt very comfortable that Xiao Ling could be humiliated in such a matter.

At this moment, a gleam of light flashed in Qinglin's eyes, as if she remembered something important. She turned her gaze to Xiao Ling, and her voice was soft and tender, and she said to Xiao Ling: "Master, Master asked me before, saying that he had something to tell you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ling cast a look full of curiosity and expectation towards Qing Lin, and asked, "Master Yao is looking for me? Qing Lin, do you know what it is?"

Qing Lin shook his head slightly and answered in an ethereal voice: "The master did not reveal the specific details to me, but from his expression, he seemed to be in a very happy mood. I think, maybe there is some good news to share with you."

Qing Lin's words were like a breeze passing over the lake, stirring up ripples in Xiao Ling's heart. His interest was aroused, and his eyes flashed with a glimmer of inquiry. He then said to Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin: "Since Yao Lao wants to see me, I will go see him first."

There was a hint of expectation in his tone. Before the voice had completely fallen, Xiao Ling's figure had already moved, walking towards where Yao Lao was at a leisurely pace.

……

Passing through the trees in the courtyard that swayed in the wind, Xiao Ling walked steadily across the bluestone floor, making a slight echo. The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows that swayed with his movements.

He walked along the winding path, with green grass and flowers dotted on both sides. Occasionally, a few colorful butterflies fluttered, adding a bit of vitality and agility. As he walked, the outline of the courtyard gradually became clear, as if he had traveled through time and space and arrived at a paradise.

Soon, Xiao Ling came to two adjacent courtyards. The buildings here were antique and revealed a sense of calmness and tranquility. The courtyards were separated by a low stone wall, and the wall was covered with green vines, adding a bit of vitality to this quaint environment.

The gate of the courtyard is carved from precious mahogany, and the copper ring on the door sparkles softly under the sunlight.

These two quiet courtyards are the residences that Xiao Ling carefully built for Yao Chen and Venerable Tianhuo in the Xiao family.

As a gentle girl, Qinglin naturally has her own private space. When she is traveling outside, she may bring Yaochen with her, but in her room, she will naturally not bring Yaochen with her to maintain her privacy and peace.

Although Xiao Ling didn't mind the two old men, as a young man full of energy, he sometimes needed to communicate and exchange ideas with Xiao Yixian on cultivation. In order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment at these times, the presence of the two seemed a little inappropriate for Xiao Ling's private space.

Therefore, even though his stay in the Jia Ma Empire would not be too long, Xiao Ling still specially built two independent courtyards for Yao Chen and Venerable Tianhuo.

In order to ensure that their peace and quiet would not be disturbed by the outside world, Xiao Ling deliberately chose a quiet place deep in his family courtyard, but because of this, the area of ​​the two courtyards was not very large. Not only was it far away from the hustle and bustle, but some special equipment was also arranged here to isolate the outside world from detection and interference.

Moreover, Xiao Ling specially invited royal craftsmen to personally design and build it to cater to the tastes of these two elderly men.

However, the craftsmen of the royal family were indeed amazing. They decorated the courtyard with an antique style. Every brick and tile, every piece of wood and stone revealed a retro charm that had been accumulated over the years.

Xiao Ling's gaze turned to the two courtyards. He noticed that in the courtyard on the right, the soul body of Skyfire Venerable was floating lightly above the open space of the courtyard.

His hands danced flexibly, as if weaving invisible magic. Under his exquisite control, the five beast fires of different colors seemed to have life, and they kept changing their shapes in his palms, like a colorful dance of flames.

The movements of the Skyfire Master were full of rhythm and harmony, and each transition of his gestures seemed so natural and smooth that one could not help but admire him. Under his command, the Beast Fire sometimes acted like a docile pet, and sometimes like a wild beast, showing the variability and mystery of fire.

Lord Skyfire was well-known for his status as a master of fire control during his lifetime. The Five-Wheel Fire Separation Technique he created was powerful enough to rival heavenly-level fighting skills. His control and use of fire naturally reached the level of perfection.

However, with the passage of time, the beast fires he had subdued during his lifetime had dissipated, and the Fallen Heart Flame that once belonged to him has now been refined by Xiao Ling.

Therefore, since leaving the underground magma world, Lord Skyfire began to collect beast fire again so that he could better perform the Five-Wheel Fire Separation Technique.

In front of him, five beast fires floated quietly, four of which were level six, and only one was level five. The blue beast fire that looked like water waves was the beast fire of the Jama royal family's guardian beast, the Youhai Jiao beast, the Qianlan Water Flame. It was what Xiao Ling had asked the royal family for before.

Venerable Tianhuo felt Xiao Ling approaching during his cultivation. He stopped what he was doing, turned his gaze towards Xiao Ling, and a kind smile appeared on his face.

Xiao Ling smiled back and nodded to greet the Skyfire Venerable. Then, he pointed his finger at the courtyard where Yao Chen was, indicating that he was here to discuss something with Yao Chen.

Seeing this, a trace of disappointment flashed in the eyes of the Skyfire Venerable. He originally thought that Xiao Ling came to learn the Five-wheel Fire Method from him. This fighting skill was extremely powerful, and the Skyfire Venerable had been collecting various beast fires, hoping to teach Xiao Ling the essence and experience of this skill.

However, since Xiao Ling came to find Yao Chen, the Skyfire Venerable stopped talking and continued to focus on the flame in his hand. Since he currently had no physical body, the use of the Five-Whirl Fire Separation Technique seemed a little unfamiliar. He needed to practice continuously to regain the feeling of being able to control the flames freely.

Arriving at another courtyard, Xiao Ling gently pushed open the gate and stepped into the courtyard where Yao Lao was. This place was arranged like a small medicinal garden, and various rare medicinal materials grew lushly under Yao Lao's careful cultivation. The fragrance of medicine filled the air, making people feel refreshed.

He walked along the stone path, bypassed several small medicinal fields, and finally arrived at Yao Lao's residence. It was a simple wooden house with a few bamboo chairs and a small table in front of it. Some medicinal herbs and books were scattered on the table, which looked peaceful and elegant.

Chapter 224: Special Uses of the Heavenly Bottle

Xiao Ling stood in front of the wooden house and took a deep breath. The aroma of medicine mixed with the fresh air made him feel relaxed and happy. He knocked on the door gently and said in a gentle voice, "Master Yao, it's me, Xiao Ling. Qing Lin said you had something to ask me."

After a while, Yao Lao's gentle voice came from inside the room: "Come in, Xiao Ling."

Xiao Ling pushed the door open and walked in, only to see Yao Lao sitting at the table by the window, holding a yellowed ancient book in his hand, reading it attentively.

His white hair gleamed silver in the sunlight, and the wrinkles on his face revealed the traces of time. Although his figure was illusory, his eyes were still bright and lively.

Walking to the table, Xiao Ling asked with a hint of curiosity, "Old Yao, I heard from Qinglin that you were looking for me. Is there something important?"

Hearing Xiao Ling's voice, Yao Lao raised his head and a warm smile broke out on his face. He gently loosened the ancient book in his hand and said softly: "Xiao Ling, you are here, please sit down first." As he spoke, he pointed to the chair opposite.

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, walked forward lightly, pulled out a chair and sat down calmly.

Seeing Xiao Ling already seated, Yao Chen slowly said, "Xiao Ling, do you still remember the 'Purple Spirit Heart and Soul Pill' I mentioned before?"

Xiao Ling nodded immediately and answered without hesitation: "Of course I remember. Isn't that the precious elixir you told me about, made with Purple Soul Spirit Heart Grass as the main ingredient? Taking this elixir has a significant effect on the enhancement of soul power, especially for those practitioners who are at the spiritual realm level. It is undoubtedly a rare help. It can not only stabilize the soul, but also broaden the breadth of the soul to a certain extent, laying a solid foundation for the practitioner's future cultivation path."

As soon as Xiao Ling finished speaking, a hint of curiosity appeared in his eyes, and he continued to ask: "Old Yao, you specially called me here, is it related to the 'Purple Spirit Heart and Soul Pill'? But as far as I know, we have not yet gathered all the herbs needed to refine this pill."

Yao Chen nodded slightly, the smile on his face adding a bit of mystery, he slowly said: "Indeed, I called you here this time, just because of the matter of 'Purple Spirit Heart and Soul Pill'."

Then, Yao Chen began to tell the story: "Didn't you ask me to keep a small green bottle called the 'Heavenly Bottle' for you? Every seven days, this bottle can produce a spiritual liquid that can extend the life of medicinal herbs by a hundred years. During this period of time, I used the spiritual liquid produced by the Heavenly Bottle to carefully cultivate the medicinal herbs that I had left over from my lifetime."

"Now, all the medicinal materials needed to refine the 'Purple Spirit Heart and Soul Pill' have been prepared. With your current alchemy skills, you should have a 70% to 80% success rate in refining this seventh-grade high-level pill. It all depends on when you plan to start refining this 'Purple Spirit Heart and Soul Pill'."

As soon as Yao Chen finished speaking, he waved his hand lightly, and a storage ring on the table floated lightly towards Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling took it and held it firmly in his palm. He then released his soul perception and probed into the inner space of the ring. He was pleasantly surprised to find that there were not only purple soul heart grass but also many rare medicinal herbs in the ring, some of which he had never seen before.

Xiao Ling immediately felt a little puzzled. He turned his head and looked at Yao Chen with curiosity, and asked, "Old Yao, I remember that I gave you the 'Heavenly Bottle' for safekeeping only a dozen days ago. In such a short period of time, the spiritual liquid that can be produced in the bottle should not be many drops. How can it be enough to ripen so many precious medicinal materials?"

Not long ago, Xiao Ling told Yao Chen the secret of the "Heavenly Bottle" and asked him to use it on his behalf.

In Xiao Ling's introduction to Yao Chen, he found out that the small bottle was obtained by chance when he was a child. He named it "Zhan Tian Bottle" and only recently discovered its miraculous effect. Yao Chen was very curious about the strange ability of the Zhan Tian Bottle. Although he had studied it in depth, he was still unable to find out its exact origin and working principle, and finally had to give up.

Although the Palm of Heaven Bottle can produce spiritual liquid that can ripen spiritual medicines, it is not unique. Because in the Dou Qi Continent, there are special fires like the Flame of Life that can use Dou Qi to quickly ripen medicinal materials. The effect is much more obvious than that of the Palm of Heaven Bottle.

Therefore, Yao Chen did not regard the Palm of Heaven Bottle as a rare treasure. Instead, he speculated that it might be a craft product from ancient times, but with the passage of time, its production method has been lost to the world.

Xiao Ling knew that he had little experience in growing medicinal herbs, and was often too busy to take care of this aspect. In contrast, Yao Chen not only had plenty of free time, but also had rich pharmacological knowledge and skilled medicinal herb cultivation techniques. Therefore, Xiao Ling decided to give the Heavenly Bottle to Yao Chen, and use his expertise to ripen the herbs he needed.

Hearing Xiao Ling's question, Yao Chen smiled. He didn't beat around the bush and explained to Xiao Ling directly, "Isn't this small bottle absorbing the essence of moonlight and then transforming it into spiritual liquid that promotes the growth of medicinal materials? I like to study it every day, so I thought that if I increase the amount of moonlight received by the bottle, I could increase the efficiency of producing the spiritual liquid that accelerates the growth of medicinal materials."

"I tried covering half of the bottle mouth to reduce the amount of moonlight that entered the bottle. I found that the less moonlight there was, the slower the spiritual fluid was generated. This convinced me that the effectiveness of the Heaven-Holding Bottle is closely related to the quality and quantity of moonlight."

Seeing that Xiao Ling was listening attentively, Yao Chen continued, "Then, I asked Yao Tianhuo to help me design a formation that can refract light. Yao Tianhuo is indeed a master of formations. He created a wonderful formation called 'Can Ju Leng He Formation' in just one afternoon. I then used this formation to focus all the moonlight within a hundred meters on the Palm of Heaven Bottle. As expected, its absorption speed increased significantly. Now, this 'Palm of Heaven Bottle' can condense three drops of spiritual liquid overnight. The efficiency is far beyond expectations."

After saying this, Yao Chen's eyes sparkled with wisdom, and he was obviously quite proud of this discovery.

After listening to Yao Chen's in-depth and easy-to-understand explanation, Xiao Ling suddenly realized and couldn't help muttering in his heart: "Oh, why didn't I think of this method before."
