Chapter 12

Chapter Twelve: The Blazing Fire Pill

Feeling the wind howling in his ears, Nie Ling looked at the young man who was pulling her along, unable to believe her eyes.

Coming down the mountain with her son, she had thought that as a Fourth True Qi Realm cultivator, she would be much faster than him. However, once they started moving, she realized how naive that thought was!

She couldn't even see his back, let alone catch up with him!

When did her son learn such a terrifying light body technique?

If someone at the Third Qi Cultivation Stage of the Ninth Heaven of Qi Sea could move this fast, wouldn't they be even faster than birds once they reached the Qi Master level? This kind of light body technique should be something even the inner disciples and core disciples of the family haven't learned!

"Hehe, my son has had some opportunities, so I learned these things. I hope Mother won't ask too many questions. The person who taught me doesn't want his information to be revealed!"

Nie Yun knew what his mother was thinking, but the matter of his rebirth was his biggest secret, and it was best not to tell anyone, not even his mother! It was easy to fool Nie Tong and Nie Xiaofeng with an excuse, but it would be more difficult to fool his mother. After some thought, he had to make up a non-existent master.

There have been cases of recluses secretly taking on disciples to pass on their legacy. Although this excuse was also far-fetched, it was much better than the truth of his rebirth.

"Really? Son, you must treat him well! Don't make the old man angry!" Hearing her son say this, her mother's eyes lit up, and she didn't press further, quickly giving him a reminder.

"Alright!" Nie Yun didn't expect his mother to believe him so easily, and even mention "the old man"... Am I that old? Well, if you count my previous life, I am quite an old monster...

He quickly returned to the branch with his mother, during which he also passed on the Ethereal Immortal Heart Technique to her, of course, using the excuse of the non-existent master.

However, his mother wasn't so easy to fool. Upon hearing about the Ethereal Immortal Heart Technique, she knew it was definitely not just a noble upper-grade cultivation technique. However, she also knew that asking too many questions might not be good, so she decided not to delve deeper.

"Madam, Young Master, you're back!" Entering the courtyard, Nie Chong arranged for his mother to rest and then came forward again. "Young Master, someone came to see you this afternoon. I asked for his name, but he wouldn't say, so I arranged for him to wait in your courtyard. He's been waiting for a while!"

"I know!" Nie Yun knew it must be Feng Xiao, and he smiled faintly, walking directly into his courtyard.

"These are the herbs you asked for. When can you help me activate my bloodline factor?"

As soon as he saw Nie Yun, Feng Xiao hurriedly shouted. Although he was still somewhat skeptical that this young man could help him activate his bloodline factor, any hope was better than none. He had returned to his family and used all his resources to gather the herbs and rushed over as soon as he had them.

"Centennial Yuan Yang Grass, two fifty-year-old Qing Song Flowers, two thirty-year-old Zhi Gui Roots... Hmm, not bad, the herbs are all of the right age!"

After identifying the herbs, Nie Yun nodded.

These herbs would take him months to gather, but Feng Xiao had managed to find them all in less than an afternoon. The difference in status was indeed significant.

"Stay here and guard, don't let anyone disturb us!"

With the herbs ready, it was time to refine the pill. Nie Yun casually instructed and then took the herbs into his room.

In his previous life, he had obtained a complete set of pill-refining techniques, which were among the best in the Divine Wind Empire, if not the entire continent. The Blazing Fire Pill was a simple pure yang pill, not complicated, and he could easily complete it with his current strength!

Closing the door, Nie Yun put half of the herbs aside.

He didn't need so many herbs to refine the Blazing Fire Pill. He deliberately asked for more to leave some for his father to refine the Heart Restoring Pill.

The Heart Restoring Pill was of a high grade, and he couldn't refine it with his current strength. There was no need to rush. Moreover, besides the Wu Xu Grass, there was another precious herb needed to refine such a high-grade pill, which might not even be available in the entire Luo Shui City, and Feng Xiao wouldn't be able to find it either. It would be useless to mention it.

"Without a dedicated pill-refining dantian, I can only rely on the lowest-grade pill fire derived from spiritual energy! However, even this pill fire has a very low success rate for refining the lowest-grade Blazing Fire Pill!"

Pill refining, like cultivation, required talent and opportunity. Without talent, no matter how hard one tried, it would be useless!

In his previous life, he had activated three dantians, one of which contained pill-refining attributes, capable of nurturing pill fire!

Pill fire was a special flame that could only be nurtured by a dantian with pill-refining attributes, formed by the breath of the dantian. When refining herbs, it could maintain 100% of the medicinal properties without any loss.

Without pill fire, he could still derive a flame using his techniques, but this flame was very low-grade. Not only did it cause the loss of medicinal properties, but it could only refine the lowest-grade pills with a very low success rate.

"Blazing Fire Pill, one Qianzi, one Zhi Gui Root... Palm Pill Fire!"

Placing the herbs in front of him, Nie Yun took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy in his body rotated along a special trajectory. "Whoosh!" A pale yellow flame formed in his palm.

This flame had no heat, and even a piece of paper wouldn't burn if placed on it. However, once it encountered the herbs, it could completely extract their medicinal properties.

"Go in!"

Successfully condensing the pill fire, Nie Yun threw the prepared herbs with his other hand. Under the flame's burning, the herbs quickly withered, and their medicinal properties condensed into a liquid, slowly gathering together.

"Pill completed!"

After an unknown amount of time, Nie Yun felt a bit tired, and the pill in his palm slowly took shape. With a light tap, the liquid pill "buzzed" and transformed into a golden pill in an instant.

Fire extinguished, pill completed!

"If I had a pure pill fire nurtured in a dantian, refining such a simple pill would take less than the time it takes to burn a stick of incense. I didn't expect using a flame derived from spiritual energy to take more than two hours!"

Checking the time, Nie Yun felt speechless.

Refining such a low-grade pill took so long, which made him, a former master pill refiner, feel embarrassed.

"If I derive a bloodline factor next time, I must open a dantian that can nurture pill fire!"

Thinking of the nameless technique, Nie Yun felt a bit helpless.

While cultivating his technique and nurturing his spiritual energy, he had also tried to cultivate the nameless technique to see if he could derive another bloodline factor. However, he found that the nameless technique was like a stiffened engine, unable to advance, let alone operate!

It was like an engine without gasoline. No matter how powerful it was or what great achievements it could make, without power, it was useless.

The nameless technique was in the same state. As soon as he tried to operate it, he felt powerless and unable to move, like a carriage without a horse or an arrow without a bow. Without the power to operate, even the most profound technique was just a blank sheet of paper.

"This technique definitely needs some special item to activate, but I just haven't found it yet!"

Shaking his head to dispel this thought, Nie Yun took the pill and walked out of the room.

"Did... did it succeed?"

Seeing Nie Yun appear, Feng Xiao quickly turned around, looking anxious. The two hours he spent refining the pill seemed like an eternity to him!

"Hehe, this is a pill that can activate your bloodline factor. Take it quickly, and I'll guard you. If everything goes well, you'll soon have a dantian!"

Nie Yun smiled and casually threw the pill to him.

"Alright!" Feng Xiao hesitated for a moment, then bit his lip and swallowed the pill.

The pill dissolved in his stomach, and Feng Xiao's face turned red as the intense heat from the Blazing Fire Pill surged through his body.

"Draw the fire into your stomach, enter the qi sea!"

Seeing that Feng Xiao was somewhat inactive, Nie Yun shouted loudly.

Hearing the shout, Feng Xiao's expression changed, and he quickly followed the young man's instructions, drawing the intense medicinal power into his qi sea.

Rumble!

As the pure yang medicinal power entered the qi sea, the entire qi sea space began to vibrate like a stormy sea. The "blocked bloodline" that had been dim and unclear suddenly emitted a brilliant light!

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

Five consecutive cracking sounds, and five bloodline factors were activated, successfully transforming into five dantians, quietly floating and rotating in the center of the qi sea, nurturing the true qi within his body!

"Five dantians, noble upper-grade bloodline! No wonder Feng Xiao could become the champion of the talent competition, he's so powerful!"

Placing his hand on Feng Xiao's back, helping him activate five bloodline factors, Nie Yun was shocked.

Five bloodline factors, five dantians, although not as good as his father's royal upper-grade bloodline, were still among the best in Luo Shui City!

Gurgle!

With the activation of the five dantians, Feng Xiao's true qi underwent a qualitative change, like boiling water, constantly churning.

A moment later, a thick true qi shot out of his body, shattering a stone in the courtyard.

Fifth Stage of the Ninth Heaven of Qi Sea, Body Exit Realm!

Nie Yun didn't expect that the activation of the dantian would also lead to a breakthrough in Feng Xiao's strength, reaching the Fifth Stage of Qi Sea!

The Fourth and Fifth Stages of Qi Sea cultivation were a dividing line. Once one reached the Fifth Stage, they entered the advanced cultivation stage and had a certain status in Luo Shui City!

"This is the Wu Xu Grass!"

Feeling the change in his body's strength and the five dantians rotating in his qi sea, Feng Xiao finally knew that the young man in front of him had not deceived him. Excitedly, he handed over a pot-like object.

A seven-colored plant in the pot emitted a faint glow under the starlight.

Wu Xu Grass!

"This herb I obtained from an ancient relic. I can't thank you enough, and a single Wu Xu Grass is far from enough to repay your kindness. If you have any requests in the future, you can find me anytime, and I, Feng Xiao, will not refuse!"

Feng Xiao looked sincere.

"Hehe, Brother Feng, you're too polite. I helped you because I think you're a person of character. Besides, we are of the same generation, and such politeness makes us seem distant..." Nie Yun smiled faintly, reaching out to take the Wu Xu Grass. Just as he was about to continue being polite, he suddenly felt the nameless technique in his body tremble slightly...

It actually moved!

PS: Recommend, recommend, recommend, recommend, collect, collect, collect... It's said that if you often shout these two things, they will increase.
