“Haha… Not bad. You’re indeed my disciple. You’re fierce. A hundred thousand pounds? Oh my god, I was still playing with mud when I was this age.”
Ye Qiu was secretly delighted, but he said calmly, “Alright, come out.”
When Little Linglong heard that she could come out, she immediately jumped out of the Qiankun Cauldron. This jump was more than ten meters tall, giving her a fright.
“Wow, am I that powerful now?”
She threw a punch with all her might. A gust of wind blew out, and a stone in the distance instantly shattered.
Little Linglong, who had reacted, opened her mouth wide in surprise. She was quite smart. She was very familiar with her own strength and could control it freely. Feeling her change, Little Linglong excitedly ran in front of Ye Qiu and said happily, “That’s great, Master. I can finally be invincible among my peers.
“I can feel that if I meet that brat Yang Bubai again, I can punch him until his mother doesn’t recognize him. Master, bring me to him. I want to kill him.”
Looking at the eager Little Linglong, Ye Qiu had a headache. He pretended to be serious and said, “Little Linglong, don’t mess around. Yang Bubai, in terms of seniority, he is still your senior brother. My Heaven Mending Sect has a sect rule. You are not allowed to kill fellow disciples.
“Don’t say such things again in the future. Otherwise… Master will punish you.”
Little Linglong was shocked when she heard this and said aggrievedly, “Alright, Master, I was wrong.”
“However… there’s no harm in beating him up. It’s a spar between fellow disciples, as long as it doesn’t hurt your life.” Ye Qiu slowed down and said meaningfully.
When Little Linglong heard this, she immediately became excited again. “Really? Can I beat him up?”
Ye Qiu smiled evilly and said, “Of course, but… there’s no point in beating up that little guy, Yang Bubai. Linglong, if you want to beat up someone from our Violet Cloud Peak, beat up the strongest. I think Qi Hao from the Hidden Sword Peak is very good.
“That guy has already been beaten up by your senior sister once, so… you have to cultivate well and strive to beat him up in the future. How about it?”
Ye Qiu had the intention of lying to a child. When Little Linglong heard this, she immediately became interested. She directly promised, “I understand, Master. I will definitely cultivate well and beat Qi Hao up. Beat him up every day. Beat him up every time I see him.”
Waving her little fist, Little Linglong revealed an excited smile. When she heard that her senior sister had beaten up that person called Qi Hao, she could not miss it. She wanted to beat him up too.
Seeing that she had successfully fallen into his trap, Ye Qiu smiled evilly in his heart. I’m sorry, Senior Brother Qi. My disciple is a little combative. I can’t control her anymore. I could only use Martial Nephew’s face to help her relax.
At this moment, Qi Hao, who was cultivating on the Hidden Sword Peak, suddenly sneezed and woke up from his cultivation state. He felt a chill run down his spine and had an ominous feeling.
“Strange, why do I suddenly feel uneasy? Could it be that there’s a problem with my cultivation recently?” Qi Hao muttered to himself. He couldn’t figure out why, but he felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn’t figure it out, so he decided not to think about it. As the Eldest Senior Brother of the Hidden Sword Peak, what could happen?
“Okay…”
Looking at the eager Little Linglong, Ye Qiu suddenly felt a sense of evil. He was looking forward to how Qi Hao would feel when he was beaten up by this little fellow in the future. Eh… I didn’t order her to do this on purpose. She wanted to beat you up. It’s none of my business.
“Your current cultivation level has already reached level nine of Foundation Establishment. You only need one step to enter the Black Finger realm. Go back and rest first. Familiarize yourself with the cultivation technique I taught you just now to temper your body and infinitely stimulate the power in your body to reach the extreme realm.
“Only by strengthening your foundation can your potential be infinitely magnified. Do you understand?”
Little Linglong was stunned and shook her head. She didn’t quite understand, but she only knew one thing. She would do whatever her master asked her to do. She only cared about nodding in agreement before disappearing. She went to look for her Eldest Senior Sister.
Lin Qingzhu was like that great wronged seed. It was not easy for her to enter a state of seclusion, but she was called up by her to go up the mountain to capture spirit beasts. She had no choice but to give up on cultivating for the time being. She would secretly refine it when she fell asleep at night.
After Little Linglong left, Ye Qiu put away the Qiankun Cauldron and slowly entered the Qianqing Hall. He was prepared to begin his tempering journey.
“I wonder what kind of changes there will be if I cultivate two paths at the same time?”
If it was an ordinary person, it would already be very difficult to cultivate a single path. This was because regardless of whether it was qi refinement or body tempering, the resources spent were extremely shocking.
Furthermore, it tested one’s talent, aptitude, and foundation.
Ordinary people could barely support one aspect, but for those ancient clans and the royal bloodline might choose to cultivate two paths at the same time. Only under such circumstances could he truly be invincible among his peers.
But Ye Qiu was different. He fulfilled all of the conditions. He had the Innate Dao Body and his aptitude had been pulled to the extreme. He did not lack natural treasures either. Through Little Linglong’s cultivation, he could continuously use them to support himself. It was definitely not a problem.
Ye Qiu didn’t waste any time and began to concoct the prescription.
Unlike Little Linglong’s prescription, Ye Qiu’s prescription this time was very high-level.
One of them, the huang san root, was even more spiritual. It completely stimulated the medicinal properties of the precious medicine. Then, he added many precious herbs and spirit medicines.
In less than a moment, the potion was finished. Ye Qiu slowly circulated his energy and activated all the medicinal properties.
Ye Qiu smiled and jumped into the boiling hot potion.
In an instant, a shocking power surged into his body. The surface of his skin suffered the pain of the precious medicine burning. However, this pain was like a mosquito bite to Ye Qiu.
In his body, Ye Qiu slowly circulated the circulation path of the Godfiend Body Tempering Technique and began to crazily absorb this power. In less than a moment, he had successfully built his foundation and his cultivation level increased rapidly.
From the first level of the Foundation Establishment realm to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment realm.
He directly stepped into the Black Finger realm.
“Damn it…”
Ye Qiu was secretly shocked. Little Linglong’s breakthrough was already shocking enough. He didn’t expect his progress to be even more terrifying. In just one try, he had already reached the Black Finger realm.
Perhaps it was because he had a late-stage Paragon realm cultivation and a True Dragon rune in his body that his body was close to perfection. Therefore, cultivation was relatively fast. It was just an excessive stage. After stepping into this realm, one could directly open up the circulation of the bloodline in their limbs and bones.
Under the powerful effects of this Connate treasure medicine, Ye Qiu’s physical strength rapidly increased. In less than two hours, he had already stepped into the Celestial realm.
Of course, Ye Qiu didn’t care about a mere Celestial realm. What he wanted to do was to increase his body tempering realm to the same level as Qi Refinement in the shortest time possible.
Although it sounded like a fool’s dream, it was not completely impossible.
The next morning, Ye Qiu had already absorbed all the precious medicine in the cauldron. His realm had also reached the Infinite Distance realm.
This improvement was really shocking. Even Ye Qiu was shocked.
As the precious medicine was completely absorbed, Ye Qiu slowly walked out. His body trembled and the water droplets on his clothes were instantly flicked out.
Ye Qiu muttered to himself after carefully sensing the changes in his body. “Hmm… It’s still not enough. Looks like I have to use more force today and apply more medicine.”
Thinking of this, Ye Qiu smiled evilly and slowly walked out of the Qianqing Hall.
At this moment, the sky had just turned bright. Lin Qingzhu sat alone beside the peach tree in the garden and silently meditated.
Ye Qiu strolled over and smiled when he saw her beautiful face. He only called out softly, “Qingzhu…”
Lin Qingzhu slowly woke up and saw that Ye Qiu had already arrived. She hurriedly stood up and bowed. “Good morning, Master…”
Ye Qiu nodded and reached out to check on her body. He smiled in relief. “Third level of Infinite Distance, very stable foundation. Not bad…”
This eldest disciple had always been very hardworking. Ye Qiu was very assured.
After a while, Ye Qiu said earnestly, “There’s still a month before the Dao discussion on Mount Yun Ding. Qingzhu, as the head disciple of my Violet Cloud Peak, you have to be a role model for your junior sisters. You can’t neglect your cultivation…”
Lin Qingzhu nodded solemnly. She knew what to do. Her master’s kindness to her was as heavy as a mountain. No matter what, she would not embarrass Violet Cloud Peak and disappoint her master.
She had probably seen all those so-called geniuses. The strongest ones were none other than He Wushuang, Fuyao, and the others. She had absolute confidence that she could defeat them.
“Master, don’t worry. I know what I’m doing and won’t disappoint you.” Lin Qingzhu said seriously.
Seeing her strong gaze, Ye Qiu gently tidied her hair and wiped the dew off her forehead. He said softly, “Yes, I’ve always been at ease with you, but you can’t be proud. The sky is so big that it covers everything. The world you see before you is only the tip of the iceberg.
“This Eastern Wasteland isn’t as simple as you think. There are countless great clans, famous mountains, and holy lands hidden in the depths of the Great Desolate. There are countless geniuses. This summit is one of the greatest gatherings of our Eastern Wasteland.
“At that time, you will truly be able to see those so-called geniuses.”
Lin Qingzhu nodded. She had never been proud. She knew that in terms of aptitude, she was far inferior to those so-called geniuses. However, she also knew that in terms of luck, those so-called geniuses could not compare to her at all. This was because she had a master who treated her very well. This was her greatest advantage.
“Alright, go wake Linglong up.”
In the garden, Ye Qiu turned around and said to Lin Qingzhu before starting to concoct a new prescription. If he wanted to raise his Body Refinement realm to the same level as his Qi Refinement realm in the shortest time possible, he had to use Little Linglong.
This was because Lin Qingzhu was focused on the Sword Dao and was not interested in body tempering.
As for Zhao Wan’er, the Red Lotus Karmic Flame was her strongest killing move. If she could cultivate it to the highest realm and comprehend its profundities, she would have a chance to break through to the divine technique. It was even more impossible for her to refine her body, so Ye Qiu could only focus on the illiterate Martial Monarch Linglong.
It was good to cultivate two paths at the same time, but without the support of powerful talent, it was impossible to achieve. There was no need for the two of them to think about this.
As for Martial Monarch Linglong, she could do it. Unfortunately, she couldn’t read…
“Ah…” Not long after, Martial Monarch Linglong yawned and was extremely sleepy. She was led out by Lin Qingzhu lazily. “Senior Sister, what are you doing? It’s so early. I haven’t slept enough.”
As she walked, she grumbled. Martial Monarch Linglong had gone overboard yesterday, so she was a little weak today.
Lin Qingzhu was speechless. It was as if she had been injected with chicken blood yesterday. She played around until midnight and was extremely tired. Today, she was the one who was dispirited. She couldn’t get up no matter what.
Lin Qingzhu patiently explained, “Little Junior Sister, a day’s plan lies in the morning. Early in the morning is when the spiritual energy is most abundant and the vitality is at its peak. How can we cultivators covet sleeping in and not think about improving?
“Don’t you want to be invincible among your peers? Then keep your spirits up.”
Upon hearing that she could be invincible among her peers, Little Linglong’s eyes lit up as if she had been injected with chicken blood. She instantly became energetic.
“Hehe, alright, I want to be invincible among my peers.” She excitedly ran to Ye Qiu’s side and shouted obediently, “Master, what are we doing today?”
“Taking a bath. I’ve prepared strong medicine for you today. As long as you absorb it, I’ll promise you that you can play crazily for two days.”
Ye Qiu smiled and said. The precious medicine he prepared today was not ordinary medicine. If she could absorb it, she might be able to reach the Celestial realm in one go.
Celestial realm in two days? That sounded a little exaggerated, but it wasn’t exaggerated at all for her. She was the reincarnation of a mighty figure with karma and an immortal body. She had endless potential.
Therefore, Ye Qiu’s consideration was to stimulate all her potential in the early stages. Only then would the path behind her be smoother. After all, body tempering was different from qi refinement. The difficulty was too great.
If he didn’t put in strong medicines, he wouldn’t be able to completely stimulate her potential. Her foundation wouldn’t be stable, and her subsequent cultivation might become incomparably slow.
This was the difference between the two.
One was very fast in the early stages and very slow in the late stages.
One would be slow in the early stages and would be able to ascend on the spot in the later stages once they reached epiphany.
She chose this path because she had no choice. If she could successfully read in the future, she might consider cultivating two paths at the same time. After all, with the support of a powerful immortal body, this was not a problem for her at all.
Hearing that she could play crazily for two days after absorbing the precious medicine, Little Linglong immediately became excited.
“Really? Master, you won’t lie to me, right?” Little Linglong questioned.
Ye Qiu knocked her head and said, “When have I ever lied to you? Hurry up and go in. As long as you absorb it completely, I promise I’ll do what I say.”
“Okay…” Little Linglong rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go all out. It’s just a cauldron’s precious medicine. It’s not like I haven’t sucked it before. Watch how I suck it dry.
Ye Qiu smiled when he saw how confident she was. Laugh. You’ll cry later.
In that prescription, Ye Qiu had added a supreme-grade spirit herb. There were also many precious herbs and spirit herbs mixed in. This medicinal primer fused all the medicinal herbs together, causing them to become incomparably hot.
She jumped lightly into the Qiankun Cauldron. A second later, she popped out again.
“Hot, hot, hot…”
While shouting that it was hot, Little Linglong jumped into the pond in the garden. Her face was red from the heat, and her expression was ferocious.
Lin Qingzhu’s heart ached. She did not expect this body refinement to be so painful. She felt a lingering fear in her heart. Fortunately, she could read. Otherwise, she would be like Little Linglong, a little piglet that had been scalded red.
Just thinking about it sent a chill down her spine. It was too terrifying. Indeed, there were benefits to reading more. The ancients were not lying.
After a long time, Little Linglong finally recovered. Her eyes were red as she looked pitifully at Ye Qiu.
“Master… Can I stop refining?”
Looking at her teary eyes and pitiful appearance, Ye Qiu pretended to be disappointed and said, “Okay, it’s fine if you don’t want to refine it.” After a while, he said, “Sigh… It’s just a pity that this invincible title is destined to have no fate with you.”
“Pfft…” Hearing this, Lin Qingzhu couldn’t help but laugh. She realized her rudeness and stopped in time. She couldn’t help but think to herself, Master is too evil. He used such a method to deceive children.
As expected, Little Linglong fell for Ye Qiu’s trap. His words controlled her.
“No, I’m invincible among my peers. No one can snatch it away.” After saying that, she angrily returned to the Qiankun Cauldron and touched the scorching heat coming from it. She felt a wave of fear in her heart.
However, when she thought about how she was about to lose her title of being invincible among her peers, she couldn’t care less. She gritted her teeth and jumped in.
Lin Qingzhu shook her head as she watched her jump in. Indeed, she was still young and didn’t know how sinister people were.
She was too gullible.
Little Linglong, who had returned to the Qiankun Cauldron, instantly turned red from the heat. She gritted her teeth with a ferocious expression. That small face revealed two small canine teeth as it bit the edge of the Qiankun Cauldron crazily. She endured the pain and continued to endure.
Ye Qiu was constantly paying attention to her situation. He slowly said, “Don’t resist. Absorb with all your might.”
When Little Linglong heard the reminder, she hurriedly began to circulate the cultivation technique that Ye Qiu had taught her yesterday and began to crazily absorb it. Her small body endured the huge impact. Suddenly, a lotus mark slowly bloomed in her body.
Seeing this scene, Ye Qiu frowned and immediately understood something.
Lin Qingzhu’s heart trembled. She lowered her head, thinking about something.
The moment the lotus mark appeared, her body began to crazily absorb the power of the precious medicine. In less than a moment, she had absorbed most of the power.
At this moment, her body gradually revealed a layer of white frost that wrapped around her.
Ye Qiu’s expression trembled as he looked at the changes in front of him in surprise.
After an unknown period of time, the white frost on the surface of her skin gradually melted, revealing her fair jade-like skin, exquisite and flawless. Her pitch-black hair gradually became smooth, giving her the appearance of an immortal.
At this moment, Ye Qiu and Lin Qingzhu were in a daze. It was as if he could see a peerless beauty sitting alone in the chaos.
“This…”
“Master, what’s going on?”
Lin Qingzhu was shocked and hurriedly asked.
