Gula De Qianghua Jishu

chapter 16: honorable profession, I want to be an alchemist

If he wanted to seek damages for Qing Yi, at the very least, he would definitely need to clash with one of those established clans!

Qing Shui went with Qing Bei to visit Qing Hu, other than external injuries, there was nothing to worry about, the wounds would heal in a day or two! Qing Hai's house was similar to Qing Yi's palace, both of them were located within the large courtyard of the Qing Clan. The surroundings are pretty good in this place with a beautiful view.

The rooms are bright and spacious, although the design is simple and rather rustic. After all, the Qing Clan did not like overspending on things that were not needed to cultivate. The tables and chairs were made of peach wood; the chairs were all taishi chairs [1] and the tables were all 8-eternal tables [2], Qing Hu was unwilling to leave the basement, let alone going out into the living room or even out of his house, he did not want anyone to see his swollen face!

“Qing Shui, let's taste the tea I made for you!” Qing Hai's wife, Song Yan warmly invited.

“Auntie, no need to trouble yourself!” Qing Shui said as he glanced at his aunt Song Yan. Qing Shui felt that, Song Yan was the most beautiful in the Qing Clan after Qing Yi. The long hair is strung together tied into a bun, with a beautiful oval egg-shaped face, white-skinned with polished features and a slender waist with giant twin peaks and rounded undersides. Song Yan actually looks younger than her age! Now that Qing Shui was already 30+ after adding his age in this world and the previous world, he did not feel the raging hormones of most teenagers and did not have a burning desire for bedwomen. However, an adult and charming woman like Song Yan could still make her heart flutter.

“Is he a MILF[3] hunter from the legends?

“Qing Hu This boy can be very troublesome, he must not fall too deep into the river of love and end up unable to escape from it, he must not fall too deep into the river of love, Lan Yan’er was already engaged to the son of the Heavenly River City Lord! Even though her status was only a concubine, if they knew that Qing Hu still had not given up, this matter would definitely bring trouble to the Qing Clan! It's really annoying.”

Qing Shui heard Qing Hai sighing dejectedly, he also felt that this matter was somewhat worrying. With Qing Hu's personality, once she decided on a target, her focus and goals would never change.

“The 4th Aunt, Heavenly River City, is it far from here?” Regarding the places on the Kyu Shu continent, Qing Shui knew quite a bit about the world outside of the mountainous region where Qing Village was located.

The Hundred Miles City was a small town located near Qing Village. Since the Hundred Miles City was actually the smallest city located in the Cang Lang Country, the name of the city was a misunderstanding, referring to the distance between the Qing Village and the Hundred Miles City. Qing Shui had heard Qing Yi say that the Hundred Miles City actually had a circumference of about 1000 Li. [4]

There was another assumption in Qing Village. People say that the Hundred Miles City only had a circumference of 100 miles, 100 years ago. Only after the development of 100 years is this the scale as it is now. That was why, in the beginning, the city was named the Hundred Miles City.

“In this world there are 9 continents. Each continent has 81 countries, and each country has 81 cities. Cang Lang Country belongs to the Northwest continent named the Green Cloud continent. The Hundred Miles City was the smallest city, located in the western region of the Green Cloud Continent. There was absolutely no comparison between the Hundred Miles City and the Heavenly River City. Heavenly River City has a circumference of more than 10,000 Li, an indicator of their prosperity can be found everywhere.Rossums say that there are even Xian Tian sentient beings there.” Song Yan said.

“Xian Tian? Isn't that the territory that grandfather couldn't penetrate? Grandfather said that the cultivators in the Xian Tian Realm have powers beyond our comprehension!

“True, that is the realm that your grandfather mentioned, there are no weaklings among them who have broken through to the Xian Tian Realm, each one is a true powerhouse in our continent! In this continent, other than cultivators, there were also beast tamers. Animal tamers usually rely on the demonic beasts they tame for battle. It could be said that an expert beast tamer was even scarier than cultivators.”

“Hahaha, anyway, the topic is already absurd!” Qing Hai laughed a bit awkwardly. He laughed at himself for being too chatty.

“No, no, I want to know more about beast tamers, how do they conquer demon beasts? What is a demonic beast?” Curiosity was burning in Qing Shui's heart. After all the beast tamer rumors he heard from the grapevine might not be as accurate as the information from his 4th uncle, Qing Hai.

“Usually, only after an animal has lived and cultivated for more than 500 years, will we call them demonic beasts. All of the demon beasts had formed demon cores within their bodies and possessed strength at the level of a Xian Tian.” sentient being Qing Hai said, with a trace of memory flashing in his eyes, it was as if he had seen someone up close or participated in a fight with someone before.

After evolution, all demonic beasts would acquire intelligence, and especially for demonic beasts that had cultivated for over 1000 years; they could be smarter and more cunning than humans! Therefore, one's requirements to become a beast tamer were too harsh, not only would one have to be strong enough to fight demonic beasts, they would also have to be proficient in faint spells, restrictions and sealing techniques! Qing Hai explained, as he sat down at Taishi Chair and slowly sipped his tea.

The cultivation realm before Xian Tian was known as the Martial Student, Martial Soldier, Martial General and Martial Commander. The realm from Martial Student to Martial Commander was also known as the Hou Tian Stage. The door to the Xian Tian Realm could be considered a natural trench, blocking almost all but a select few who were allowed to pass through. Just like Qing Luo, who had been trapped in the realm of Martial Commander, Class 10 for so many years, yet was still unable to pierce the neck of the final bottle ..

In general, the 3rd generation disciples of the Qing Clan had all been cultivating into the Martial Warrior Realm, 2nd generation disciples, had at least been cultivating into the General Martial Realm. Only Qing Luo was in the 10th Grade Realm Martial Commander. He only stayed 1 step away to break through the door to the Xian Tian realm! But this single step ..the inability to take the final step, had proven to be a curse to many cultivators, and was the greatest regret throughout their lives.

Although the Blue Lotus Art could be considered a Hou Tian level technique, it was the pinnacle of all Hou Tian techniques, with a Heaven Class rank. After all, the Xian Tian level technique was similar to the stars in the sky, the essence and concepts behind it were too difficult for most people to comprehend, so a Hou Tian level technique with a Heaven Level could be considered extremely valuable! The majority of cultivators in the Kyushu world could only use Hou Tian level techniques. Only those who came from very established sects or large clans with deep roots had the possibility to possess Xian Tian level techniques or above; even Legendary level techniques and God level were rumored!

Cultivating the Blue Lotus Art would allow one to reach the peak of Hou Tian. Similar to Qing Luo, with the cultivation realm of Martial Commander, Class 10. As long as he could enter the Xian Tian realm, his life force would more than double, from 200 years to 500 years. But Xian Tian life form...even in such a huge city, the number of Xian Tian cultivators could be counted with one hand, how could there be such an existence in Qing Village? Here, including the Hundred Miles City, one could already be considered an expert once their cultivation reached Hou Tian pinnacle.

Qing Shui got all of this information from Qing Hai, and found many benefits from reaching the Xian Tian Realm. Just based on the fact that a Xian Tian cultivator could live up to 500 years, it had already proven to be a very interesting carrot, inspiring all cultivators of the Hou Tian stage to push forward to break through.

Qing Shui had no idea what exactly his cultivation level was, after all, the Blue Lotus Art he trained in was different from the other clans. The strongest 3rd generation disciples of the Qing Clan so far were Qing You and Qing Zi, both of whom had broken through to the 7th grade of the Martial Warrior realm.

Martial students could not be considered cultivators, only those who had reached the Martial Warrior realm could be considered as one. The 3rd generation disciples of the Qing Clan had all broken through to the Martial Warrior Realm, so when someone was said to have broken through to Layer 6, it was, it actually meant that they had broken through to the Martial Warrior realm, Class 6.

Although the Blue Lotus Art was said to be a Hou Tian level technique, there was still a small amount of possibility for a cultivator to break through to the Xian Tian Realm. The percentage of successfully breaking through was only about 1% of the success rate. After all, the Blue Lotus Art was a Heaven Level Technique, Hou Tian Realm Technique, other Hou Tian level Techniques; earth Grade, Mystic Grade, and Huang Grade were all considered trash in front of him. The possibility of breaking through to the Xian Tian Realm was still there, with a success rate of less than 0.01% .. Other than rogue cultivators, unaffiliated with any clan or sect, no other cultivators were willing to cultivate those trash techniques into place.

Although there were many cultivators, there were many other ways to survive in this world. The ones with the most advantage were the beast tamers, alchemists and medical doctors.

There were also many people who chose to become architects, cooks, tailors, and blacksmiths but this profession was not as respected as the beast tamers, alchemists, and doctors.

As the saying goes “every profession will produce a master, as long as you put enough love and perseverance in your work”The people of this world still need to eat, need weapons to fight, so long as you put enough love and perseverance into your work, will be sick and injured. .

So, whatever the profession, as long as you are truly the best in that profession, wealth, women, and respect will come to you as well.

Especially for alchemists, they were the most respected professions in this world. Alchemists could create Yuan Charging Pellets to block pain and aid recovery, or legendary Dragon Martial Pills that increase the chances of breaking through to the Xian Tian Realm by 50%!

Any alchemist, no matter whether they ranked high or low, even if they failed a thousand times in pill concoctions, they would still be respected and glorified by the masses! Pill concoctions also require luck. Who knows..the low rank alchemist you despised yesterday could produce an immortal level potion today.

All of this information was notified to Qing Shui, by Qing Hai's 4th uncle and his wife Song Yan. Qing Shui was very interested in the Xian Tian Realm and the alchemist profession. He decides that one day, he will also walk the path of alchemy, to be honored and glorified throughout Kyushu!
