Chapter 154 - 111: The Second Layer of Sword Intent_i
Xu Yan watched as Pharmacist Pan broke through the Blood Qi realm and became a martial artist. Although he only had Copper Bone, making him weak in Xu Yan’s eyes, in the Border Wilderness, he was incredibly powerful.
The top experts in the Jianghu can be eliminated with a snap of the fingers.
Xu Junhe was also on the verge of breaking through. With the help of elixirs, he had already completed organ refining, and it would only be another day or two before he would make his entry into martial arts.
“This Blood Qi pill was only refined from ordinary precious herbs and yet it has such extraordinary effects. How much stronger would the effects be if it were refined from spiritual medicine?”
“Grandpa is getting older, so his martial arts training is slower, and uncle and the others aren’t exactly gifted either.”
“Plus my mom, even with the help of elixirs, it will take quite a while for her to break through and she’s already finished all the elixir.”
Xu Yan marveled at the effects of the elixir and decided to take all the precious herbs from his house and give them to his junior female disciple for alchemy. He knew that alchemy required a lot of elixirs.
Especially new elixirs, they are not guarantees to be successful at the first attempt.
And failing once is equivalent to a complete waste of a furnace of herbs.
“Spiritual medicine, I lack spiritual medicine. Once 1 make it into the inner domain, my first goal is to buy spiritual medicine. Spiritual medicine is the real alchemy material.”
Xu Yan thought to himself.
His determination to go to the inner domain intensified once again.
Today, Pharmacist Pan has already entered the martial arts, and his own father is about to break through.
In addition, two of the family’s household guardians who have good innate talent are also about to break through. After returning home, let his junior female disciple help refine a batch of elixirs. They can quickly assist them in breaking through.
The safety of the house is now accounted for.
“Once dad has broken through, 1’11 go home and ask my junior female disciple if she has any elixirs that could rejuvenating, 1 could make some for mom to eat. It should have balanced effects and easier to breakthrough…”
Xu Yan thought of his mother.
He did not expect his mother to fight others. A certain level of power is enough. The important thing is that practicing martial arts can extend one’s life.
Li Xuan surveyed the Endless Mountains and saw many people entering the mountains to seek masters, but he did not find any martial artists.
Moving deeper into the Endless Mountains, near the Inner Domain area, he discovered ferocious beasts including the Red-Eyed Tiger and the
Flame-maned Wolf.
“Were the Red-Eyed Tiger and Flame-maned Wolf in the Evil Forest originally from the Endless Mountains? That Red-Eyed Tiger is rather weak, isn’t it a purebred?”
Li Xuan contemplated.
“Since I’m already here, how could 1 return empty-handed.”
With that thought, Li Xuan landed.
Next to a mountain stream, there was a gigantic tiger laying down. Its huge body was not much smaller than a bull’s.
“Could this be the Red-Eyed Tiger King from around here?”
Li Xuan mumbled to himself, this tiger was truly gigantic.
The Endless Mountains near the Inner Domain contain remnants of the
Heavenly Earth Lingji, which is why there are ferocious beasts there, and their strength is not weak.
“Roar!”
The Red-Eyed Tiger felt a sudden weight on its back and realized that someone was sitting on it!
It roared in anger and tried to turn over, but its neck tightened and the whole tiger was picked up and even flew into the air.
Just like picking up a big cat!
The Red-Eyed Tiger was scared. It curled its tail and hind legs, whimpered, and didn’t dare to struggle or move, fearing that it would fall.
“Hey, you are pretty smart for a big cat, did 1 randomly pick one that happens to be quite intelligent?”
Li Xuan expressed his surprise with a smile.
He took the Red-Eyed Tiger back to Yunshan County.
Having a big cat is quite good. He was not sure if it could be tamed. If it could be tamed, he would keep it as a pet. If it could not be tamed, he would stew it and eat it.
Blood, flesh, bones, and even the tiger’s penis could all be used for alchemy.
Upon returning to the manor, Li Xuan put the Red-Eyed Tiger down. He had expected the tiger to roar in anger. Instead, it rolled over with its belly facing up, surrendering.
“Hey, you’re pretty sensible for a big cat.”
Li Xuan laughed.
“Master, are you going to use its blood, flesh and bones for alchemy?”
As soon as she saw it, Su Lingxiu excitedly ran over and asked.
“Let’s keep it for now. If it’s not getting tamed, then we can kill it and use it for alchemy.”
Li Xuan patted the tiger’s head and said.
“Alright then.”
Su Lingxiu looked somewhat disappointed.
“Shi’er, you will be responsible for feeding it. If it doesn’t behave, kill it.”
Li Xuan commanded.
“Yes, Master!”
Shi’er looked somewhat excited and said, “Master, I’ve learned some beast taming skills. I don’t know if I can train it, but 1 can try.”
“You can go ahead and try.”
Li Xuan was surprised for a moment, Shi’er can actually tame beasts?
But he also knew that Shi’er’s beast taming skill was just some means of the Jianghu and wasn’t considered any big deal.
“From now on, when refining elixirs, if there are any that haven’t been refined, just give them to it to eat. It’s better than wasting them. Whether or not it can manifest potency, it’s up to itself.”
Li Xuan thought for a moment and said.
“Alright, Master!”
Su Lingxiu nodded.
Upon hearing this, Shi’er was anxious. “Master, I can eat them too.”
Li Xuan said angrily, “Not all failed elixirs are harmless to humans. If you eat the failed elixirs and something happens, don’t complain.”
Upon hearing this, Shi’er immediately shrank his neck and said with embarrassment, “Then forget it, just give it to it.”
Li Xuan sat down on the chair and watched the Red-Eyed Tiger laying belly-up, showing off its cuteness. He pondered for a moment and said, “From now on, you’ll be called Red Cat.”
“Roar!”
Red Cat let out a deep roar.
Li Xuan laughed, the IQof this tiger was quite high.
Shi’er brought a large coarse chain, put it around Red Cat’s neck, and found a whip to use for taming.
Su Lingxiu used the Water Spirit Grass to refine a batch of elixirs, but there were two failed elixirs which she gave to Red Cat to eat..
