Colorful Cloud Peak, Clear Thought Hall.
Two people sat quietly beside a white jade table. Pine incense burned slowly, and brilliant daylight slanted into the hall.
"I can already break through to the ninth level and condense my nature root. In two years at most, I should be able to reach Foundation Establishment." Wen Si'an brewed spirit tea, rising white mist obscuring her face. With gentle movements, she slowly poured a cup and handed it to the man before her.
Pleasure appeared in Xu Xuan's eyes, but then he fell into thought. "We may still need to consider the matter of a Foundation Establishment Pill." With that in mind, he took out the Deepblood Pill recipe and laid it on the table.
"Unite the immortal foundation and spirit treasure, shape the inner scenery, bring forth the mysterious elephant, and fuse nature and life. To be used during refinement."
After reading the pill recipe, Wen Si'an said softly:
"I feel reasonably confident. I should be able to break through without taking a pill."
"The Shangyang Rain-Listening Method produces [Auspicious Water Sign], an image of welcome rain. The [Rain-Prayer Dance] fulfills the office of the Rain Master, bearing the two images of Cloud Bell, Wind Drum and Azure Bird Dream-Rain. Once mastered, it allows one to sense wind and rain, with drizzle or downpour decided by a single thought. It can even reveal omens through dreams. It is quite wondrous."
She turned slightly, and her dragon-serpent body, lustrous white as jade, slowly emerged from beneath the table. She hooked the jade cup with the tip of her tail and took a small sip.
Xu Xuan looked at Wen Si'an's dragon-serpent lower body with a somewhat peculiar expression. At first glance, she truly resembled a demon.
"Can you change back now?"
"Not yet.
