The Returning Sword Saint's

Chapter 14: Harvesting the Virgin Red Flower

The first failure did not discourage Xiao Yun. It was very normal for an alchemist to fail when he refined pills. Moreover, this was Xiao Yun's first trial of this life, so it was understandable.

"One pill has failed ... Geez, I have to clear the cauldron before the next try."

The medicinal properties and smell of the previous failure were still clinging onto from the cauldron. Due to the explosive effect, the qi substance must be cleaned so as not to engage the next process.

"OK on done."

After cleaning the cauldron by washing it with water already mixed with certain spirit herbs, Xiao Yun used telekinesis to take the semi-finished pill once again.

In the Qi Gathering realm, there were some basic abilities a cultivator could access when his rank was qualified.

Telekinesis was one of them, when the cultivator reached the three Qi Gathering realm ... Then cultivators would be able to use this ability easily.

Moving objects without touching, flying an object, etc. But still, when cultivation was still lacking, the distance that could be controlled only ranged from two meters.

As cultivation surged further, then the telekinesis distance would also grow further.

Other than telekinesis, other basic abilities would also be obtained by cultivators when their realm was qualified. Some skills such as: sound transmission, breathing in water, walking on water, sticking to walls, floating in the air, light body and much more.

Currently, Xiao Yun had telekinesis, and it greatly helped him in some work. Like that, this can help him in refining pills.

The second experiment began. Xiao Yun had already started to get used to himself due to the first failure. Now he is much smoother and the process carried out is very smooth.

Nevertheless, after taking an hour. A pill finally flew out with a perfect orange color that emitted a lot of energy.

"I succeeded!"

Xiao Yun was delighted, he caught the pill and looked at it up close.

This pill is named Meridian Liaison Pill – As the name implies, this pill is able to connect the meridians that have been opened and instantly open the 12 main meridians that have not been opened. Moreover, this pill would also increase one's cultivation within 12 days! Moreover, the effects of this pill enhancement are permanent!

Which meant, if one had absorbed this pill completely ... Then it would be equivalent to cultivating for 12 days. However, this pill could only be used in the Qi Gathering realm, using in the higher realm would have no improvement at all.

A heaven-defying pill, but in the Spirit World, this pill was quite common among the top sects. If this pill were to be scattered out, Xiao Yun did not know what great uproar would be.

Not even looking at the effects that being able to impart cultivation for 12 days, just being able to open 12 Prime Meridians alone would already be a huge commotion.

That was why when Xiao Yun wanted to increase his strength faster, his first thought was to become an alchemist.

This work besides bringing many advantages but also became an undeniable source of strength.

In the Spirit World, there was an extremely outstanding young Alchemist. Every time he sold his pill, it would sell out loud and many people would buy it.

Despite that, it was a pity that the Alchemist could not cultivate for a lifetime because he was only an ordinary human. However, it did not make the cultivators disrespect him, instead they held the man high like a master teacher.

Unwittingly, the young Alchemist had many people guarding him and seemed to be a united community. With pills he can tell someone and with pills he can take down an empire.

An incredible job.

After finishing one pill, Xiao Yun then started refining the other pill until the afternoon. Too bad, he could only make three successes out of ten trials.

Yet Xiao Yun was not sad, it was because he had completed his target this time. He still had a half-finished pill that had yet to be refined, he would do it tomorrow once more.

With one Meridian Liaison Pill, Xiao Yun would at least be able to break through two to three realms, and he had four pills, that was enough to advance to the peak Qi Gathering realm.

The children in the Xiao clan who were the same age as him were on average at the Qi Gathering realm eight, and the most talented child of the same age at the moment named Xiao An who was at the Qi Gathering realm was twelve, half a step away from advancing to the Qi Foundation realm.

At the elder level, their average cultivation was among the third Qi Foundation to the fifth Qi Foundation. Here, Xiao Ming entered the ranks of elders because his cultivation was sufficient.

Then there was Patriarch Xiao, Xiao Yun's father with the sixth Qi Foundation cultivation level. At this level, it seemed like the four Patriarch families in Lantian City had the same cultivation.

And the strongest person in Lantian City was Su Hai, the Mayor of Lantian. From the information Ye Fei provided, Su Hai seemed to have reached the Qi Foundation nine.

If it was the former Xiao Yun, then this was just an insignificant ant character ... But at this moment, Xiao Yun could not afford to offend.

Xiao Yun's journey was still long.

"Penetrating to the Qi Foundation realm as soon as possible, awakening the Spiritual Root, starting the Main Cultivation Manual, setting up the Combat Manual ... Huh, a lot of things to do."

After cleaning all the tools and put in a spatial bag. Xiao Yun went inside his room and started his cultivation.

One pill was inserted into his mouth and Xiao Yun immediately made a light hand gesture before his eyes closed.

He is very passionate in cultivation.

...

Meanwhile, in a forest was still the territory of the Azure Mountains. There was a beautiful girl dressed as a man in dark red, the girl was wearing a bamboo hat and a sword was sheathed on her waist.

He looked at the map in his hand as if he was checking his territory at the moment. Feeling that it was true, he then stuffed the map into his shirt.

The girl was currently on top of a tree that was quite tall, she was squatting on a branch of a tree large enough to support her body safely. He was busy watching something below, his eyes constantly looking around to find what he was looking for.

"It hasn't appeared yet ... Is it because it hasn't rained?" he said while looking up at the overcast sky.

Ye Mei sighed, after the incident with Xiao Yun, she was very embarrassed but also very angry. Who would have guessed that the person he had driven out back then was the one who would help him this time, although not directly, but thanks to the information provided, it was thanks to the information provided, he could find the spirit herbs that his teacher needed.

As a proud person, Ye Mei would not be willing to apologize for her previous treatment. However, he also felt guilty and would repay this debt in a way that would make Xiao Yun satisfied.

It was thought of Ye Mei, as Xiao Yun was just a poor little teenager who was only at the Qi Gathering realm, let alone being in Lantian City where the majority of the cultivation level of the population was low. He was thinking of providing a special training that would allow Xiao Yun to break through in the Qi Foundation realm easily.

Moreover, Ye Mei would give out a Cultivation Manual according to the Spiritual Roots raised. This payment, it seemed that it was enough for Xiao Yun to settle down and live a peaceful life in Lantian City.

"Yes I'll do that... I'm sure the man will be satisfied." Ye Mei nodded as if she could see when Xiao Yun happily accepted the payment.

Unknowingly, Ye Mei had already been on the tree for two more hours, yet she remained patiently waiting for something. Ye Mei looked at the sky and found the water had already started to fall.

He then took out a special water-repellent black robe from his spatial pouch and put it on.

"Rain has fallen ... It's time to find a female Silvermoon Wolf."

With that, Ye Mei jumped from tree to tree looking for the whereabouts of the savage beast. Not long after, he saw a flock of Silvermoon Wolves who wanted to reproduce, because this time also coincided with the breeding season of the Wild Beasts.

During this season every Wild Beast would be stronger than usual.

Ye Mei was not afraid, however, as she was confident that her strength was enough to eradicate a flock by herself.

Just like that, Ye Mei whipped out her sword and slaughtered the Silvermoon Wolf quickly and easily. He distinguished the manner of death between males and females.

If the male, his belly is split, then the female has her neck split. Immediately the Silvermoon Wolf's blood flooded the ground beneath him. With the help of rainwater, suddenly a flower the size of a fingernail appeared under the wolf carcass.

If Ye Mei's eyes weren't sharp, perhaps she wouldn't have noticed this little flower.

"Pirgin Red Flower ... There really is!"

The flower was blood red with five small petals, it was more like a mushroom with the shape of a mini flower. When noticed, the mini flower seemed to absorb the blood around it which gradually continued to grow rapidly.

Ye Mei had only first seen that there was a spirit plant like this, if she did not see it directly, perhaps she would not believe it.

Suddenly a red gas vapor came out from the mini flower which made Ye Mei surprised.

"Oh... The liquid!"

Ye Mei immediately took out a small bottle from under her clothes and stuffed every red liquid that came out of the flower into the bottle with telekinesis.

"It just fills half of it."

However his eyes were then startled by the scene before him at this moment.

"It!"

The corpse of the Silvermoon Wolf he had killed was now underneath him growing a similar mini flower. The size of the flower continues to grow when the rain is getting heavier.

"Damn it! I don't have many bottles! Suppose Jiejie was here. We'll be able to harvest great benefits this time." Ye Mei grumbled as she was about to miss this great opportunity.

"Anyways, I'll take as much!"
