Xiao Yi Xian stepped out of the small courtyard. The Little Amethyst Winged Lion King, which was already equivalent to a human Dou Ling, spread its wings and flew over in a flash, following closely behind her.
"After leaving Blackrock City, you'll be heading to the Tagor Desert to Cultivate, right?" Chen Yang flicked a streak of seven-colored flame from his hand, playing with it at his fingertips as he looked at Xiao Yan with a smile.
"Yeah, Brother Yang, you also mentioned that the Green Lotus Core Flame is in the Tagor Desert." Xiao Yan looked at the colorful fire at Chen Yang's fingertips, his face filled with curiosity.
"This isn't a strange fire; it's just a Beast Fire from a Seventh-Tier Magical Beast. It's not much stronger than your Purple Flame." Seeing Xiao Yan's curiosity, Chen Yang took the initiative to explain.
"Hehe, with your strength and talent, Brother Yang, I'm afraid only the strange fires ranked in the top ten of the strange fire ranking list are worthy of you!" Xiao Yan chuckled.
"Who can say for sure right now? Maybe I'll encounter one later." Chen Yang smiled and waved his hand, tossing a blood lotus pill to Xiao Yan. "As for the ice heart pill and the remaining pills, you can collect them when we meet up in Mo City."
Refining a fifth-grade pill was quite fast for Chen Yang as long as it wasn't a complex one, but he couldn't spend all twelve double-hours of the day refining pills, could he?
Therefore, opening only one furnace a day to practice his skills was good enough.
"Alright!"
Xiao Yan nodded. Although it would only take a few days to get to Mo City from here by flying Demonic Beast, if he used the ice-fire body tempering pill, he was destined to be unable to travel with others. Thus, he could only fly to Mo City on his own. Although he was now a Three-Star Great Dou Shi and had plenty of qi recovery pills, the journey would take at least a month, and Xiao Yan even had to race against time.
Meanwhile, Brother Yang had a Sixth-Tier Magical Beast as a mount, and it might only take half a day's work to get from here to Mo City. He simply couldn't compare. So, after thinking it over, he decided to have a good rest tonight and set off tomorrow while cultivating along the way!
After having lunch, Xiao Yan departed.
On the way to Mo City, he would be sleeping in the open, and the environment would become increasingly harsh. Therefore, he needed to fully prepare daily necessities like food and fresh water; he wouldn't have time to detour to a city to buy them midway.
Walking from here to Mo City would take four or five months. Even with a flying Dou Technique, he would have to use that month's time very carefully.
However, Xiao Yan didn't have any resentment. Traveling was also a form of cultivation... After Xiao Yan left the next day, Lin Li came to the door, bringing his daughter Lin Fei with him.
After returning home yesterday, he had mentioned Chen Yang to Lin Fei. Lin Fei was full of praise, her admiration evident in her words. But when she learned from Lin Li that Chen Yang was actually a Dou Huang expert, she was completely stunned.
Originally, she had thought about using her father's background to have him talk to Chen Yang, but now... not only could her looks not compare to the woman beside Chen Yang, but her background was also useless.
Today, Lin Fei had also insisted on coming with Lin Li, simply because Lin Li said Chen Yang would be leaving Blackrock City in a few days.
"Greetings, Great Master!"
"Greetings, Great Master!"
In the courtyard, Lin Li and Lin Fei both bowed to Chen Yang.
"Mhm."
Chen Yang nodded.
"Great Master, this is the Medicinal Pill I would like you to refine!"
Saying that, Lin Li took out a scroll from his storage ring. The Soul fluctuations on it were obvious; this scroll was undoubtedly a Pill Formula.
Chen Yang opened the scroll.
The Medicinal Pill was named the "Thunderous Pill." It was a standard Medicinal Pill used to speed up cultivation, allowing a lightning-attribute Dou Wang to increase their cultivation speed by thirty percent for a duration of one month.
Among fifth-grade pills, it was considered quite basic. Chen Yang also had the formula for this Medicinal Pill in his mind, and even for a better-effect Thunder Spirit Pill that could directly raise a lightning-attribute Dou Wang expert by one star. However, there was no need for him to say so much to Lin Li.
"I can refine it, no problem!"
Seeing Chen Yang nod, Lin Li was overjoyed. He took off a storage ring from his hand and placed it before Chen Yang. "Great Master Chen, I understand the rules of Alchemists. Inside are three sets of medicinal herbs, a lightning-attribute High-Grade Profound Tier Dou Technique, and a Gold Card with one million gold coins!"
Chen Yang nodded. Taking the medicinal herbs and the storage ring, he went straight into the room. Under the eaves by the door, the Amethyst Winged Lion King lay lazily, while Xiao Yi Xian still gracefully served tea to the two.
Two and a half hours later, a rich pill fragrance wafted out of the room. Lin Fei looked at the room with a face full of worship, which made Xiao Yi Xian almost want to add some "special ingredients" to her tea.
After a few more minutes, the door opened, and Chen Yang stepped out.
"Congratulations, Great Master!" they said in unison.
"I was lucky enough to succeed on the first try." Chen Yang smiled and tossed the jade bottle to Lin Li.
Lin Li hurriedly opened it to look, only to catch a glimpse of Pill Veins on the Medicinal Pill, which made him even more shocked.
"Oh... your formula was quite simple, so I accidentally refined Pill Veins. The effect should be about 30% stronger," Chen Yang said with a wave of his hand.
"This... thank you, Great Master!"
"Lin Li will send another gift tomorrow. This Medicinal Pill is far too precious!"
Chen Yang smiled upon hearing this and waved his hand, signaling that Lin Li could leave.
Lin Li bid his farewell and happily left, pulling along Lin Fei, who kept looking back with every step.
Chen Yang turned to look at Xiao Yi Xian, who was pouting her small mouth, and reached out to pat her head.
"Pack up, we're leaving now!" As soon as Chen Yang said this, Xiao Yi Xian was momentarily stunned.
"Don't you want Lin Li's gift?" Xiao Yi Xian asked, blinking her eyes.
"Too much is as bad as too little!"
Hearing Chen Yang's words, Xiao Yi Xian revealed a happy smile and went to pack her things with a pitter-patter.
At noon, Chen Yang and Xiao Yi Xian quietly left Blackrock City. Once they reached a secluded spot outside the city, the Amethyst Winged Lion King returned to its original size, carrying Chen Yang, Xiao Yi Xian, and the little lion as they flew toward Mo City!
...By the afternoon, the two people and two beasts had arrived in Mo City and found a place to stay!
Mo City had a desert vibe, with hot weather and dense fire-attribute Dou Qi.
Chen Yang and the two Amethyst Winged Lion Kings felt as if they had arrived in heaven. Xiao Yi Xian also found some desert-exclusive poisonous insects and flowers here. After starting to Cultivate again, she broke through to a Three-Star Great Dou Shi within a month.
"You didn't let me Cultivate for a month in Blackrock City, so why did you lift the restrictions once we got to Mo City?" Xiao Yi Xian looked at Chen Yang in confusion.
"There's no special reason; I just wanted you to relax a bit," Chen Yang said with a smile.
Xiao Yi Xian rolled her eyes at Chen Yang but leaned tenderly against his chest, her face filled with happiness.
A few minutes later, Chen Yang suddenly felt a small hand wandering over his body. His index finger twitched in excitement, and he wanted to show off his riding skills again. But just as he was about to get on board, a System notification suddenly sounded in his mind:
[Ding!]
[Detected that the largest storage ring in Mo City is 46 cubic meters, owned by Hai Bodong. The host has obtained one 100-cubic-meter storage ring!]
[Detected that the most precious treasure in Mo City is the Purification Lotus Demon Flame fragmented map, owned by Hai Bodong. The host has obtained the complete Purification Lotus Demon Flame Map!]
"Mhm!"
"Xiao Yan has finally arrived in Mo City..."
