Chapter 50 - Learning Alchemy (1/2)

“Great strength and spirit, you have good talents. I’ll give you a Dragon Elixir as a gift.” Looking at Ye Shang, the old man nodded with satisfaction and then threw Ye Shang a jade bottle.

In the modern era, a weak body was always the weakness of cultivators. Therefore, only Yang Lei had cultivated the Heaven Obscuring Palm in Taixuan Peak, which was related to Yang Lei’s endowments, but the reason why Yang Lei could cultivate the Heaven Obscuring Palm to the stage of Turning Hands was because she had once taken a Dragon Elixir.

“Thank you, Great Elder.” Ye Shang once again clasped hands to the old man to express his gratitude.

Except Yang Lei, everyone was envious of the small bottle in the hands of Ye Shang.

The old man left after smiling at Ye Shang.

“Thirteenth, you’re so lucky. Only your martial ninth sister has taken a Dragon Elixir in Taixuan Peak, and Master even had to ask for the elixir from the Great Elder.” Qing Ji looked at Ye Shang and said with a smile.

“Only the Great Elder has the ability to refine Dragon Elixirs in the Medicine Valley. In addition, if your physical strength is not strong enough, even if you take the Dragon Elixir, it will still be difficult to make progress.” Liu Yangyu explained as he recognized Yang Lei’s physical potential.

“We know that the great elder gave Thirteenth a dragon elixir, indicating that Thirteenth has potential in this respect.” Gong Xuan said as he understood Liu Yangyu.

Later, Ye Shang learned the preciousness of the dragon elixir from Yang Lei as the main material of the dragon elixir was the dragon bones, which were very rare.

“Thirteenth, the cultivation of Medicine Valley has two directions, one is to cultivate Xuan Gong, and the other is alchemy. But I think that you should stick to mystical martial arts.” Liu Yangyu found that Ye Shang was interested in alchemy, he thus explained.

“Master, then can I study alchemy while practicing mystical martial arts?” asked Ye Shang.

“It’s also feasible. Many cultivators also study some fields. Some study alchemy, some study refiners, and some study formations. However, they must decide which they major. Don’t value both equally since you won’t be extraordinary in both fields.” Liu Yangyu reminded Ye Shang.

“I understand.” Ye Shang nodded.

“The level of alchemy of your martial great brother is so-so, and the level of your martial sixth sister is somewhat good. Do you want to go to Jingxin cliff with me, or to the bamboo forest of your martial sixth sister?” Liu Yangyu asked Ye Shang.

“Master, Thirteen will be nervous and not used to it if he keeps on following you, hence he should follow me.” Qing Ji said with a smile.

Liu Yangyu nodded with a smile as he also understood that Ye Shang would be more casual with his martial brothers and sisters, he thus agreed with Qing Ji’s proposal and told Gong Xuan to make alchemy materials in the resource warehouse available to Ye Shang, which made them extremely envious.

“Thirteenth, I used to feel like studying alchemy, but Master only allowed me to use the first-class materials in the warehouse.” Yang Lei slapped heavily on the shoulder of Ye Shang.

“You? Aren’t you embarrassed? How much materials did you ruin?” Liu Yangyu glanced at Yang Lei.

Yang Lei became silent since she knew she didn’t have the talent.

After chatting for a while, Ye Shang followed Qing Ji to the bamboo forest.

“Thirteenth, my servants are all girls, I will pick some beautiful ones for you, but don’t mess around.” After entering the bamboo forest, Qing Ji said.

“Sixth Sister, stop joking, I can take care of myself.” Ye Shang blushed.

Qing Ji arranged a bamboo house for Ye Shang, and then went to the resource hall to collect the furnace and some first-class materials.

In the next few days, Ye Shang cultivated Myriad Dao Treasured Tome and the Xuan Ding Scripture at night, while practicing Heaven Obscuring Palm and Chasing Wind during the daytime, and then Qing Ji would explain the common basics and knowledge of alchemy.

Seeing Ye Shang practicing the Heaven Obscuring Palm and Chasing Wind, Qing Ji was shocked.
