“Don’t get ahead of yourself.”
Li Xuan said, chuckling.
Alchemy and martial arts, indeed, were a system he had pondered over—a different martial arts system beyond physical cultivation.
“Master, 1 started learning medicine when 1 was four, and 1 was already treating people by the time 1 was six…”
Su Lingxiu said earnestly.
Li Xuan:…
Looking at Su Lingxiu, he fell into deep thought. What was he doing when he was six years old?
Playing in the mud!
Shit!
That’s quite a gap.
Six years old, not so young. I vaguely remember, when i was three, I had already killed a ferocious beast with my bare hands.”
As a superior figure, a mysterious and formidable master, how could he lose to his disciple?
He lied without blinking an eye or missing a heartbeat.
Su Lingxiu’s mouth gaped open slightly as she fell silent, staring at her master.
She suspected her master of bragging, but she had no evidence.
“Master, you’re amazing!”
She swiftly put on an admiring smile and flattered him.
“Hmm.”
Li Xuan nodded, quite pleased.
“You can stay. Tomorrow, 1 will teach you martial arts.”
“Yes, Master!”
Su Lingxiu nodded.
She picked up a spade and cheerfully went off to tidy up her quarters.
Shi’er returned.
Great heavens, she’s actually become the master’s disciple?
Considering Su Lingxiu’s extraordinary potential, he thought it made sense.
“Miss, why did you choose him as your master? How can one cultivate in this borderland?”
In the room, Zhou Ying was tidying up while expressing her worry.
“Aunt Zhou, what if it’s true? The borderland, do you think we should remain here for a lifetime? Master is a superior person. If I succeed in cultivation, 1 won’t be afraid of those people.”
Su Lingxiu said earnestly.
Zhou Ying sighed.
“Aunt Zhou, you’re a fourth-rank practitioner. If it wasn’t for protecting me in this borderland, with no chance to cultivate, you would have already broken through to the third rank.”
An excited Su Lingxiu said, “If 1 truly can cultivate, then Aunt Zhou, you also have a chance. Sooner or later, I will bury all those people!”
With that, she waved her spade.
Zhou Ying nodded.
The next day.
Outside Yunshan Town.
On a hill, Meng Chong was cultivating, conditioning his sword, and contemplating the Golden Body of the Great Sun.
Two figures appeared.
“Master!”
Meng Chong quickly stood up and bowed.
“Hmm!”
Li Xuan nodded.
Meng Chong curiously glanced at the beautiful young girl next to his master.
“This is your junior sister apprentice, Su Lingxiu!”
Li Xuan introduced.
“Junior sister apprentice?”
Meng Chong’s eyes lit up.
“Temporarily.”
After a pause, Li Xuan added.
Meng Chong was instantly confused, looking at his master, unsure of what he meant.
“I see her intelligence. Perhaps she has potential to be cultivated. I intend to pass on the Alchemy martial arts to her. If within a year she fails to cultivate the basics, 1 will kick her out of the school. Then she will no longer be your sister apprentice.”
“I don’t take incompetents as disciples.”
Li Xuan stressed the last sentence.
Upon hearing this, Meng Chong finally understood. It turned out to be this way.
He had heard from his senior brother that their master had initially given him a one year deadline.
Although the master didn’t explicitly mention it to him, it was clear there was a one-year deadline for him too.
The master, being a superior figure, couldn’t be careless about accepting disciples.
Anyone less than the proud sons of heaven would not be suitable to be master’s disciples.
“This is your senior brother Meng Chong.”
Li Xuan continued.
“Nice to meet you, senior brother!”
Su Lingxiu bowed and greeted.
“Junior sister, please, no need for formalities!”
Meng Chong replied with a bow.
Su Lingxiu looked at Meng Chong, his tall, muscular body and bald head manifested incredible strength. His powerful energy was stern and seemed to harbor terrifying power.
Second brother, his power is very strong!
Much stronger than Aunt Zhou!
She was startled in awe, realizing that their master hadn’t lied about cultivation being possible in the borderlands.
After introducing the siblings, Li Xuan took Su Lingxiu aside to teach her the Alchemical Medical Martial Arts.
“Your talent lies in the area of medicine and alchemy, so I’ll teach you the Alchemical Medical Martial Arts… Be it standard martial arts or bodily martial arts, the foundation lies in skin-refining, bone-refining, and organ-refining, though the methods vary slightly.”
Li Xuan explained slowly.
“Skin-refining, bone-refining, organ-refining?”
Su Lingxiu was curious; it was significantly different from the martial arts she was practicing.
“You are now at the seventh stage, giving you a solid foundation in martial arts, making your training relatively easy. Next, I will transfer to you the cultivation techniques, but remember, the martial arts I teach rely on comprehension and understanding. Only by fully understanding the true meaning of the cultivation techniques can you master the basics.
“Don’t be confined by the literal methods but seek understanding…”
This wasn’t the first or second time he was teaching a disciple.
Li Xuan smoothly repeated the words he had taught Xu Yan and Meng Chong, emphasizing comprehension and understanding, asserting that only through understanding the true intent of the cultivation technique could one successfully cultivate.
“Bone-refining involves processes such as iron bone, copper bone, and golden bone… The initial stage of standard martial arts involves jade bone refining while physical martial arts involve diamond-glazed bone, and Alchemical Medical Martial Arts involve evergreen bones!”
Li Xuan explained solemnly.
Evergreen Bone!
This was a term he made up for the basic stage of Alchemical Medical Martial Arts.
“The Evergreen Bone exudes endless vitality, it’s immortal, indestructible… buried in the ground, it will absorb spiritual energy and gradually transmute into a spiritual object teeming with vitality, making it eternally vibrant.
“Those who refine their bones into Evergreen Bone will live longer than other martial artists, but they may be slightly less resilient than those with jade bones and diamond-glazed bones.
“Alchemical Medical Warriors can save lives or take lives, resurrect the dead, or kill invisibly.”
Li Xuan introduced the basic system of Alchemical Medical Martial Arts.
Su Lingxiu was stunned.
Her mouth agape in astonishment.
She could hardly believe that such martial arts exist in the world?
Could it really be attained?
Evergreen Bone, teeming with life, if one dies, the bones buried in the ground may absorb spiritual energy and transform into a spiritual object bursting with life?
This was far too fantastic!
As Su Lingxiu’s heart pounded, she felt that she’d stumbled upon a great opportunity.
If such a powerful and mysterious martial art could be cultivated successfully, how mighty it would be!
“Master, quickly teach me, quickly teach me, and once 1 succeed, 1 will bury them all!”
Su Lingxiu excitedly said while waving her shovel.
A twitch tugged at Li Xuan’s mouth, this girl, was she addicted to burying people?
With a grave expression, he said: “What I’m passing on is a way, not just a technique, you must strive to comprehend, to understand its true meaning. Only then can you begin, can you cultivate.
“Regarding medicinal treasures, I won’t introduce them since you’ve been studying medicine since childhood and naturally recognize them and understand their effects and differences.
“Now I’ll transfer to you the way of alchemy!”
Li Xuan naturally didn’t know how many types of medicinal treasures there were, and their effects, so he directly skipped them, nor did he pass on any alchemical recipes. It was up to Su Lingxiu to comprehend these aspects on her own.
What he wanted to teach was the way of alchemy.
“Yes, Master!”
Su Lingxiu respectfully replied.
“A pill is the essence of refining, removing the impurities, melding it into a round shape, its effects vary…”
Li Xuan spoke calmly, transferring the art of alchemy he had created, word by word, to Su Lingxiu.
How to concoct pills?
Simply, it’s about extracting the essence, bringing out its spirit, and drawing out its original forces; a pill recipe is a combination of various medicines and spiritual medicines. During the alchemical process, essences merge, causing a qualitative change, equipping the pill with magical effectiveness.
Su Lingxiu’s bright eyes widened, her immaculate face flushed with excitement, the more she heard her master explain, the more excited she became.
Apparently, medicinal treasures and spiritual medicines can be utilized this way?
Have them refined into pills!
Even if regular medical decoctions, or even if prepared into pills, they still retain their medicinal nature, and to some extent, they contain some toxicity!
If one constantly takes it over the long term without a break, giving the body no time to expel the toxins, over time, it will harm the body.
But it’s different with alchemical pills!
Alchemy, it seems, is about extracting all the essences, eliminating all impurities and rendering the body clean, leaving no residual impurities.
What a miraculous technique this is!
“1 must study alchemy!”
Su Lingxiu determinedly thought.
“I will definitely succeed in cultivation, I will definitely become an Alchemical Medical Warrior!”
She knew very clearly that once she had understood the art of alchemy and could concoct alchemical pills, she would hold a terrifying position in the world of martial arts.
Of course, she needed the backing of powerful support.
Otherwise, she could be captured by a powerful force to be used as a laborer, forced to disclose her alchemical techniques and so on.
However, with her master being so powerful, this situation would surely not arise.
Su Lingxiu listened attentively, and as her master expanded on his explanations, an image of a pill recipe began to form in her mind.
“Combining Ginseng Mountain, Nine-Leaf Primordial Plant in Tiger’s Blood … such a recipe greatly replenishes qi and blood; if turned into a pill, it would be highly beneficial for cultivation.”
Having been studying medicine from a young age, she naturally recognized various kinds of medicinal and spiritual medicines..
