Return Origin Spirit Water

After class.

Chen Mobai did not fall a step behind again. Relying on the faster Levitation Technique he had after consolidating his realm, he snatched a spot in the first batch of Cultivation Rooms.

Today, he had to get to the Water Mansion as quickly as possible to verify whether it really was because of that fish that ripples had appeared in his utterly ordinary cultivation.

He did not waste the two hours in the Cultivation Room either, seriously reading the email Chan Si had sent him.

After obtaining the full contents of "Azure Water Array Detailed Explanation," this array teacher indeed did not disappoint him. After understanding and integrating it herself, she had made a very detailed courseware breakdown of the array, starting from the five basic arrays that made up this Second-Order Array: spirit gathering, concealment, complexity, water control...

Because Chen Mobai had personally worked with the "Azure Water Array," he found it very easy to immerse himself in it.

He compared it against his own exploration and experience with the Formation Flags over the past two days, then against the exquisitely detailed explanations in the courseware. In an instant, his understanding of this Second-Order Array crossed the threshold.

Two hours passed very quickly.

The alarm rang, startling Chen Mobai awake from his absorption in study.

"Teacher Chan can clearly make her lessons sound very engaging."

Murmuring to himself, Chen Mobai thought of Chan Si's usually very dry teaching level in class, wholly unaware that it was because he normally had no interest in what was being taught.

People were all like this. Even cultivators, as long as it was something they were interested in, would stay up all night and day to figure it out.

He got up and walked out of the Cultivation Room. Chen Mobai stretched lazily and looked around to either side, then suddenly froze in place.

For some reason, his luck was extremely good.

The one coming out of the Cultivation Room on the left was Yan Bingxuan.

After not seeing her for a few days, this class belle's temperament seemed even colder and more aloof. She must have formally begun cultivating the "Frost Condensation Method" and started altering her Spiritual Root into ice.

As for the one in the Cultivation Room on Chen Mobai's right, it was another genius from their class, Song Zheng.

He probably had not managed to snatch a spot in the first batch of Second-Order Cultivation Rooms today, so he had come to this First-Order Cultivation Room first to make do.

"..."

Chen Mobai was not in the same circle as the two of them and did not know how to greet them.

After a burst of silent awkwardness, it was still Song Zheng who spoke first.

"Yan Bingxuan, I still think your choice is wrong. With your aptitude, if you focused on raising your realm and studying this semester, you could at least take the entrance exams for the Four Great Dao Academies. Perhaps you could leap through the dragon gate like a fish and soar to the heavens in one bound."

But Song Zheng directly ignored Chen Mobai and spoke to Yan Bingxuan across him with a calm expression.

"Summer insects cannot speak of ice!"

In response, the increasingly cold great beauty Yan said an idiom that made Song Zheng's brows furrow, and he almost could not hold back his anger.

"I obtained Teacher Ding's inheritance, and I also have a method to transform my Spiritual Root constitution into a Three Yang Body. But I feel my limit should not be Pure Yang Academy. Only the Four Great Dao Academies are where I should go."

Song Zheng's words made Chen Mobai fall silent.

This guy was so confident.

If he could get into Pure Yang Academy, one of the Ten Great Academies, his mom would be able to visit the neighbors every day and brag about it for the rest of her life.

And to Song Zheng, who was so confident he was practically glowing, the great beauty Yan was once again stingy with words and said an idiom.

"A frog at the bottom of a well!"

Song Zheng's anger was already becoming somewhat uncontrollable.

Chen Mobai checked the time and did not greet the two people who were ignoring him. He walked straight out between them.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I bet the two of them are going to the sports field to settle this."

However, before Chen Mobai could walk away, his Deskmate Lu Hongsheng grabbed him. Before long, a circle of classmates gathered around the two of them. Everyone watched Song Zheng, who had clenched his fists and was applying to Yan Bingxuan for a spell exchange.

In school, fighting and brawling were naturally not allowed.

But sparring and exchanging spells were encouraged.

And between top students, this was often used as an excuse to prove that they were the strongest one.

"I have something to do today, so I'll go first. Tell me the result after the two of them fight."

Although Chen Mobai also very much wanted to watch the exchange between the only two Late Qi Cultivation top students in the class, after thinking about his arrangements tonight, he still decided not to waste precious time spectating.

Lu Hongsheng's attention was completely on the two top students. He gave an absent-minded response without caring much. By the time he reacted, Chen Mobai had already vanished.

"That kid has been a little strange lately."

"Yeah, after cultivation, he's always the fastest one to run off."

"Could he be dating someone?"

The two beautiful Front Desks spoke one after another, making Lu Hongsheng suddenly jolt. He realized it really did seem like that.

"Hurry up, great beauty Yan agreed."

But before they had time to investigate further, Yan Bingxuan had already turned with a cold laugh and walked toward the sports field.

For spell sparring, to avoid damaging the grounds, it all had to take place where the school had laid down Restrictions.

The sports field was one.

After Chen Mobai ran out of the school, he immediately threw this small matter to the back of his mind.

On the way home, he saw a pharmacy and walked in.

The pharmacy was not large, but its stock was fairly complete. Strangely, however, there was no one behind the counter.

Chen Mobai could only walk around by himself, looking for what he wanted to buy.

"Hello, is anyone here?"

But after searching around, he still did not find any test paper that could simply measure spiritual power attributes. Chen Mobai shouted toward the back door.

"Coming!"

A crisp response rang out. Then the back door was pulled open, and a young girl wearing white clothes and white pants, with her hair tied up and a white cap and mask on, walked over. Although only half of her face could be seen, the moment their eyes met, he was drawn in by her pitch-black, bright eyes, which carried a moving charm and spirituality.

Chen Mobai had never seen such clear and pure eyes before. Just like her clothes, they were pure white and flawless.

"Hello, customer. What do you need?"

"Where is the Spiritual Power Test Paper? I couldn't find it."

"Please wait a moment. That item is in the cabinet. I'll get it out for you."

The white-clothed young girl's brows and eyes were also extremely delicate, and her skin was snow-white. Wearing a mask, that face-enhancing divine tool, made Chen Mobai unable to help glancing at her a couple more times as he spoke.

After they finished talking, the white-clothed young girl turned and walked toward the counter by the entrance. Her back was graceful, but the faint medicinal fragrance drifting from her made Chen Mobai unable to stop himself from frowning. He raised a finger to cover his nose.

When he was little, he had once had a serious illness and had taken medicine for several years, so he did not really like medicinal smells.

"How many would you like?"

The white-clothed young girl walked over holding an opened box of Spiritual Power Test Paper. At this moment, she noticed Chen Mobai's movement of blocking his nose with the index finger of his right hand, and her pitch-black, bright eyes paused.

"Five is enough, thank you."

Chen Mobai stretched out his other hand and picked out five sheets from the box the young girl was holding, then quickly walked to the entrance to scan and pay.

"Sorry, I was refining 'Return Origin Spirit Water' in the back. My extraction skills aren't good enough, so the medicinal smell on me is a little strong."

The young girl's words came from behind him. Chen Mobai looked back and saw her standing where she was, not following him over, apology in her eyes.

"Oh, are you an alchemist?"

The Immortal Sect stipulated that only those who had passed the alchemist professional qualification exam could refine medicines.

There were all kinds of techniques for refining pills, but on Earth Origin Star, the most common one was still water-method alchemy.

Because fire-method alchemy would burn away part of the spiritual energy in Medicinal Ingredients, which was somewhat wasteful. Water-method alchemy emphasized extraction. Its utilization rate was high, and the medicinal properties were gentle. After most Medicinal Liquids were taken orally or injected, not only did they take effect quickly, but they basically had no aftereffects.

"Return Origin Spirit Water" was a First-Order Medicinal Liquid. It could be taken orally and could restore the spiritual power of cultivators in the Qi Cultivation realm.

Double updates will start in two days.
