Cultivation Is No Match for Cheats

As soon as the three liquids with different properties came into contact, Xiao Yan felt a strong resistance.

The next step is the most crucial one. Xiao Yan must use his Soul Power to forcefully suppress them and use high temperature to force the three liquids to fuse together.

Moreover, Xiao Yan had to ensure that his Soul Power was distributed relatively evenly on the surface of the medicinal liquid; otherwise, under high pressure, some of the medicinal liquid might spray out from uneven areas, ultimately leading to the failure of the medicine refining process.

Xiao Yan struggled with the clump of liquid that had been pushed together for a full hour before the three distinct liquids finally showed a slight tendency to merge.

After three more hours of continuous refining with the Green Lotus Sea Heart Flame, the three colors finally disappeared completely, replaced by a slightly transparent light blue liquid droplet.

"Call..."

Xiao Yan exhaled a breath of turbid air and refined the liquid for another ten minutes or so, condensing the liquid droplet into a light blue Pills.

As the Pills took shape, a powerful energy surge suddenly erupted, and this Sixth Grade Pill was finally completed.

With a flick of the indigo flame, Xiao Yan took the Pills out of the cauldron. Without the barrier of the Heavenly Flames, the refreshing fragrance of the pill instantly filled the entire platform.

The Alchemist, who had been holding their breath all day, suddenly erupted in clamor, uttering all sorts of praise.

However, Xiao Yan simply stood up and waved his hand, and they quieted down again, then looked at Xiao Yan expectantly like well-behaved students waiting for a teacher's reprimand.

That's all for today, we'll continue tomorrow.

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he ignored the reactions of the Alchemist, threw the Bone Strengthening Powder to Zi Yan, activated his Crystal Wings, and flew away to return to his dormitory to rest.

Although Xiao Yan's refining speed was extremely fast, a day still passed. Concentrating on refining medicine for a whole day left Xiao Yan quite exhausted.

"... Why are you still following me?" Xiao Yan stopped helplessly and turned to look at Zi Yan.

The medicinal power of the Bone Strengthening Powder is not used to directly improve cultivation level, but rather to slowly temper the body, opening up the path from Dou Wang to Dou Emperor, allowing people to break through smoothly.

Therefore, Zi Yan didn't spend as much time as refining the Dou Ling Pill; after swallowing it, she followed behind Xiao Yan.

"I have nowhere to go~" Zi Yan flew to Xiao Yan's side and said coquettishly, "It's so boring to be alone."

If you were next to me, your sister Xiao Yi Xian and I would get really bored. Xiao Yan rolled his eyes. "I have to continue refining medicine tomorrow, and I need to sleep tonight."

"It's okay. I ate so much today, I need to sleep tonight to digest it."

"..." Xiao Yan was speechless for a moment.

Since Zi Yan had clung to him so much, Xiao Yan couldn't very well send her away, so he could only take Zi Yan back to his dormitory and have Qing Lin arrange a room for her.

The next day, Xiao Yan continued refining the medicine, but this time he made a mistake during the pill-forming process, resulting in failure. On the third day, Xiao Yan succeeded again, refining another pill of the Bone Strengthening Powder.

Xiao Yan felt he was quite lucky this time, having refined two Pills using only three portions of Medicinal Herbs.

After putting away the Pills, Xiao Yan said to the group of Alchemist, "I need a ball of Beast Flame. If anyone has a high-quality Beast Flame, you can contact me."

No sooner had the words been spoken than a man stood up impatiently and said, "Senior, I have a Phantom Gold Fire here."

The Phantom Gold Fire is extremely rare. After Seventh Grade Phantom Fire Scorpion Dragon Beast hatches, the Phantom Gold Fire will remain in the shell and burn it to ashes within three days.

To obtain the Phantom Gold Fire, one must find the remains of a young Illusionary Fire Scorpion Dragon within these three days.

Of course, once found, there are many ways to preserve them. The real difficulty lies in finding the phantom fire scorpion dragon cubs born within three days.

What do you want?

"Senior, it's like this." The man smiled ingratiatingly, "This junior is Han Xian from the Medicine Gang, and there was some unpleasantness between him and the Gu Family before..."

"I'm not in charge of the Gu Family, so it's no use telling me," Xiao Yan interrupted Han Xian, and continued, "Anyone else with good quality Beast Flame can go to the Gu Family to find me."

After saying that, Xiao Yan put away the medicine cauldron and left gracefully.

Zi Yan glanced at Han Xian twice before leaving with Xiao Yan.

"Xiao Yan, shall I help you snatch Han Xian away?" Zi Yan caught up with Xiao Yan and said.

"Don't worry about him. Instead, you should collect the Medicinal Herbs for the Form Transformation Pill as soon as possible. I should break through to the Seventh Grade Alchemist soon."

"Really!" Zi Yan's eyes lit up, and she instantly forgot about Han Xian.

Zi Yan's attention was diverted by the Form Transformation Pill, and she didn't want to wait a moment longer, so she flew away alone to find Medicinal Herbs.

Xiao Yan rested for a night and planned to go to the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower with Xiao Yi Xian, but unexpectedly Gu Xun'er came to their door with the Phantom Gold Fire.

"Han Xian from the Medicine Gang personally came to the Gu Family yesterday, giving them several Pills sales points with huge foot traffic, and asked me to act as his intermediary, hoping that you would accept his Phantom Gold Fire."

Gu Xun'er explained her purpose, and then took out an amber the size of a head. Through the amber, Xiao Yan could clearly see the Phantom Gold Fire sealed inside.

After Xiao Yan accepted it, Gu Xun'er asked, "If you had founded the Gu Family, what would you have done?"

"I?"

"Hmm, I'd like to know, if you created a faction and the Medicine Gang Clan smashed your Pills stall, how would you handle it?"

"I'll first investigate the strength of the Medicine Gang, then I'll go to their door and slap Han Xian so hard he'll be stuck to the wall, and then I'll pack up all the valuables from the Medicine Gang and take them away."

"...?"(_)

"Anyway, they attacked first." Xiao Yan shrugged, speaking with self-righteousness.

Seeing that Gu Xun'er nodded as if she understood, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian left.

Having learned from their previous experience, the two easily reached the sixth floor of the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower and found two adjacent cultivation rooms.

Xiao Yi Xian is about to break through to the Dou Emperor, and Xiao Yan also plans to break through two or three stars. After learning about the effects of the Bone Strengthening Powder, Xiao Yi Xian Yixian immediately said that breaking through in the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower was as easy as eating and drinking, and that it would be better to give the Pills to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan thought about how Xiao Yi Xian had jumped from the Seven-star Dou Spirit to the Peak Dou Wang, and then thought about how he had to train hard for two months to break through to the Three-Star level, so he decided to listen to the advice.

After preparing in the cultivation room, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the Green Lotus Platform, took out the Bone Strengthening Powder, and swallowed it in one gulp.

The pale blue medicinal power dissolved in Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan, permeating every corner like flowing water, gently nourishing his body.

Almost instantly, Xiao Yan broke through to the Six-Star Dou Wang level, the whole process was incredibly smooth.

"Is this what it feels like to have a cheat code? It turns out that hard training is a dead end."

Xiao Yan let out a long sigh, then took out the Phantom Gold Fire, swallowed it in one gulp, and entered a state of cultivation.
