Chapter 39 Problem Child, Zi YanIn the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, in the low-level training room on the first floor. Xiao Yun did not sit on the black stone platform that could summon the heart fire, but sat down cross-legged on the ground, because he came here not to practice fighting spirit, but to refine pills. With a wave of his hand, a medicine cauldron appeared on the ground in front of him. After placing the cauldron in place, Xiao Yun was just about to close his eyes and think about the recipe and refining method of the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill in his mind when he heard a somewhat impatient voice. "Hey, why are you closing your eyes? Hurry up and make some medicine for me." When he opened his eyes, he saw Zi Yan's face full of impatience, with a bunch of medicinal herbs in her hand. "You only gave me one plant, why did you take out so many herbs?" With a twitching mouth, Xiao Yun saw the rare herbs in Zi Yan's hand and struggled to suppress the immature thoughts in his mind. "Hehe, who knows if you will still need that little flower by then, can't I take it out first and keep it as a reserve?" Zi Yan snorted, rolling her eyes cutely. Hearing this, Xiao Yun didn't say anything more. Originally, he wanted to refine the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill first, but seeing Zi Yan's impatient expression, he decided to help her refine the pill first. "Just find a place to sit and don't disturb me." After giving the order, Xiao Yun took out the Taiyi Bamboo Vine that she had given him before, and with a wave of his hand, a wisp of purple flame appeared at his fingertips. Seeing the appearance of the purple fire, Zi Yan, who wanted to watch closely, quickly retreated and sat down in the corner of the training room. Seeing her reaction, Xiao Yun was not surprised. For magical beasts that were not fire-attributed, they would reject fire. Moreover, his fire was a sixth-level beast fire, so it was normal for Zi Yan to be uncomfortable.
"Just wait there. Don't worry, I'm very good at playing with fire. I won't burn you." Xiao Yun comforted her casually. Without waiting for her answer, he flicked his fingers and shot the flame on his fingertips into the medicine cauldron. boom! The moment the flame entered the medicine cauldron, it burned violently and turned into a raging fire, quickly raising the temperature inside the cauldron. When the temperature inside the cauldron reached a certain level, Xiao Yun waved his hand and threw the Taiyi Bamboo Vine in his hand into the flames. Zizi! As soon as the Taiyi Bamboo Vine entered the flame, its epidermis withered rapidly, and green liquid continuously seeped out from the surface and floated in the flame. This refining method is not that difficult, and it cannot even be considered as refining pills. Refining pills is to extract the essence of many different kinds of medicinal materials, combine them all together, and finally refine them into a pill. Such a pill is not only more effective than the medicinal materials themselves, but is also easier to absorb. Helping Zi Yan to refine medicinal materials only required extracting the essence from her body and directly merging them into small spherical pills. The medicinal power did not become milder, and most people would explode and die after taking them. Only a powerful monster like Zi Yan could withstand this wild medicinal power. Therefore, Xiao Yun does not need to expend too much energy and only needs to control the temperature to a certain level. While refining the herbs, Xiao Yun suddenly thought of Zi Yan's special ability. He looked up at Zi Yan in the corner. Seeing her staring at the medicine cauldron with sharp eyes, he couldn't help but chuckle, "You're watching so seriously, do you want to come over and learn?" "No." Zi Yan quickly shook her head and said crisply. "Have you ever encountered a Snow Demon Ape in the mountains behind the inner courtyard?" "Snow Demon Ape? Are you talking about a big white-haired monkey?" After thinking for a moment, Zi Yan frowned and said. "Yes, it should be the big monkey you mentioned. Do you know where it is?" Hearing Zi Yan's answer, Xiao Yun was cheered up. He remembered that the Snow Demon Sky Ape in the original book was guarding a treasure like the Earth Core Tempering Milk. The Earth-Tempering Body Milk is born under the earth. It is formed by the squeezing of pure earth power over countless years. It has the magical effect of cleansing the marrow, and can even help some people who have reached the peak of their level break through the barriers of the boundaries. Although Xiao Yun did not have a bottleneck, the most powerful effect of the Earth Core Tempering Milk was to cleanse the marrow. If he could get a drop of it, it would have immeasurable benefits for his future cultivation. "I don't know. The monkey was running around everywhere and it was hard for me to find it. Why are you asking this?" When Zi Yan said this, it seemed that she had been bullied by the monkey, so her tone of voice was a little higher. "It has great treasures hidden inside. When you find it in the future, remember to tell me and I'll go with you to fight it." Xiao Yun replied, waving his hand and sending the completely withered Taiyi bamboo vine out of the fire outlet, leaving only green liquid in the medicine cauldron. He took out some seasoning from the ring and threw it directly into the medicine cauldron. It immediately merged with the green medicinal liquid. He waved his hands quickly, constantly forming seals. As the seals changed, the medicinal liquid in the cauldron also separated rapidly, and finally turned into dozens of tiny liquid balls. "Condense!" With a light shout, the liquid solidified quickly and instantly turned into dozens of green pills. Xiao Yun waved his hand, and the pills were lifted up by the fighting spirit and all flew into a jade bottle. Seeing that the elixir was successfully refined, Zi Yan, who had been staying in the corner, ran over quickly and reached out to take the jade bottle from Xiao Yun's hand. "Don't be anxious, eat slowly, this tastes much better than eating the raw herbs directly, right?" Xiao Yun saw Zi Yan's action, stretched out his hand and handed her the jade bottle, smiling.
"Hmm, this tastes much better." Nodding repeatedly, Zi Yan couldn't wait to pour out a green pill, put it in her mouth, and started chewing it hard. "Then bring the other herbs here, and I'll help you refine them." "Okay, here you go." Zi Yan hurriedly ran back to the corner and handed the four medicinal herbs that had just fallen there to Xiao Yun. Then she ran back and sat cross-legged there, staring at Xiao Yun without blinking. …… After a while, Xiao Yun repeated the same trick and refined the other four herbs into pills, to which he also added a little of his secret seasoning. "Look, they're all refined. Here you go." After extinguishing the flame, Xiao Yun waved his hand, and all the pills in the medicine cauldron flew out and were put into a jade box by him. Throwing the jade box to Zi Yan in the corner, Xiao Yun said with a smile: "These pills should be enough for you to eat for a while. When you run out, you can come to me to refine them." "Yeah, thank you, you are such a good person." After taking the jade box, Zi Yan's originally black big eyes were almost smiling. She finally didn't have to eat those unpalatable medicinal herbs anymore, and she could eat delicious pills in the future. "Okay, I'm going to officially refine the pill now, you can go." Waving his hand, Xiao Yun swallowed a pill to restore his fighting spirit and spoke. "Kid, are we friends now?" After hearing Xiao Yun's words to drive people away, Zi Yan, who had been smiling, suddenly lowered her head, like a sunflower without sunlight, and said gloomily. What a problem child. Seeing Zi Yan's appearance, Xiao Yun understood and sighed. Zi Yan's true form is a demon beast. She lived in the back mountain of the inner courtyard since she was a child, without the company of her parents. Although she accidentally ate the transformation grass and was brought back to the inner courtyard by the elder, the elder treated her in a free-range state and did not take care of her. Before Xiao Yun entered the inner courtyard, there were almost no children of her age here, and other inner courtyard students were afraid of her brute force, which led to no one in the inner courtyard playing with her. So, although Zi Yan has great strength, she is still a child who lacks love. I am afraid that I am the first person of the same age that she has come into contact with. Xiao Yun stretched out his arm, rubbed her head vigorously, and said with a smile: "Of course we are friends. Also, I am not called a kid, my name is Xiao Yun." "Don't touch my head, it won't grow taller." Zi Yan pushed Xiao Yun's hand away, her face full of smiles again, "My name is Zi Yan, so we will be friends from now on!" "Xiao Yun, I remember your name! If anyone in this inner courtyard dares to bully you in the future, just tell me and I will help you vent your anger. There is no one in this inner courtyard that I dare not beat." Zi Yan said domineeringly. Today was a really good day. Not only could she eat delicious pills in the future, but she also made her first friend in her life, which made her extremely happy. "Okay, I'll definitely look for you then." Looking into the eyes of the little girl in front of him and feeling her joy, although no one in the inner courtyard dared to bully Xiao Yun, he still followed Zi Yan's words. After getting Xiao Yun's response, Zi Yan finally stood up with satisfaction, smiled at Xiao Yun, then turned and left the training room. "Remember to tell me when you find the Snow Demon Ape." Xiao Yun shouted as he looked at Zi Yan's departing back. Zi Yan didn't even turn her head, but just waved her hand to indicate that she understood. "She's still a child who hasn't grown up." He shook his head helplessly. Although Zi Yan might be much older than Xiao Yun, her mental age was the same as her appearance. She was still a child who had not grown up. Without thinking about Zi Yan anymore, Xiao Yun took out the herbs needed to refine the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill and put his attention back on refining the pill. "Oh, I forgot to ask her for another Purple Spirit Flower." Just now, he was only concerned about the Snow Demon Sky Ape and forgot that he only took one Purple Spirit Flower. The Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill was a top-grade fourth-grade pill. Judging from his previous medicine-making skills, he could only make less than 30% of it. But now that things had come to this, he didn't know where to find another Purple Spirit Flower. He could only try it once. Actually, I didn't really need this pill, so it didn't matter if I failed. With a bitter smile, Xiao Yun comforted himself in his heart, then summoned the Purple Crystal Lion Fire again and threw it into the medicine cauldron. His mind gradually calmed down, and he began to refine it with full concentration... (End of this chapter)
