Chapter 708

After a long time, Yang Kai’s eyes suddenly regained clarity, a thoughtful look flashing across his face. He reached out and summoned his alchemy furnace, and then took out several medicinal herbs from the Black Book space.

The fire of spiritual consciousness burst out, wrapped in those medicinal herbs. Under the baking of the scorching energy, these medicinal herbs were quickly condensed into liquid medicine and orderly put into the alchemy furnace.

The fire of spiritual consciousness then wraps around the alchemy furnace and those liquid medicines underwent a gratifying transformation and fusion inside the alchemy furnace.

In just a moment, the fresh fragrance of the elixir filled the wing room.

A soft sound came out, and a round elixir flew out of the alchemy furnace. Yang Kai caught it in his hand, carefully examined it for a while, and a smile appeared on his face.

Spiritual-level elixir！ Easily refined. Compared with the previous method of refining elixirs with true essence, it is more convenient and faster. Just in terms of time, it has been shortened a lot. Moreover, Yang Kai can feel that if he becomes proficient and can use the fire of spiritual consciousness with ease, the quality of the elixirs refined will also be very high.

Refining elixirs with the fire of spiritual consciousness is completely not on the same level as refining elixirs with true essence.

Throughout the whole process, Old Li and Zhai Yao were also fully concentrated.

Zhai Yao watched with admiration. Even though he had seen his teacher refine pills with the Divine Sense Fire Youdaoplaceholder0 times, he still couldn’t help but feel a sense of amazement. For him, who couldn’t possess such an advantage, he was naturally quite envious of Yang Kai’s capital.

Elder Li also nodded approvingly, with a shining light in his eyes. Yang Kai’s comprehension ability and talent made him feel that his experience was not entrusted in vain.

He would surely thoroughly understand his experience and would also have his own insights and developments on this basis.

“Thank you for Elder Li’s guidance!” Yang Kai put away the spirit pill and solemnly bow.

“Hehe, little brother is too kind. In fact, there are conditions for me to teach you these things.” Elder Li smiled slightly.

“Elder Li, please speak.”

“I would like to ask, how did your Divine Sense Fire come into being？ Moreover, I observe that the intensity of your Divine Sense Fire seems to be no less than that of mine. At your age, it is hard for me to imagine that you can cultivate the Divine Sense Fire to this extent. If it is convenient, can you tell me？”

Yang Kai pondered for a while and said, “Well. Regarding the first question, it actually appeared inadvertently. I once had a True Spirit in a piece of jade. I originally wanted to devour the energy of the True Spirit in the jade to enhance my own cultivation and combat power, but unexpectedly, in that cultivation, by accident, I cultivated the Divine Sense Fire.”

“True Spirit in a piece of jade？” Elder Li’s expression changed when he heard this. “You really have a lot of courage. You dare to devour this thing.”

“I didn’t think too much at that time. Looking back now, it was really dangerous.” Yang Kai grinned. “Fortunately, the True Spirit in that jade wasn’t too powerful. Otherwise, I would have lost my life.”

Old Li nodded slightly and fell into thought： “So it turns out that devouring the True Spirit in jade can also give birth to the Divine Consciousness Flame. However, this method is still a bit too risky.”

Obviously, he asked these questions for Zhai Yao’s sake, wanting to let him also possess the Divine Consciousness Flame. Yang Kai’s method wasn’t suitable for Zhai Yao.

Not to mention whether there was any danger or not, even if there was no danger, it might not necessarily allow Zhai Yao to give birth to the Divine Consciousness Flame. The element of coincidence was too great.

“Regarding the second question…” Yang Kai said slowly. “The reason why my Divine Consciousness Flame can be on a par with Old Li’s, I think it’s probably because I devoured someone else’s Divine Consciousness Flame, not because I cultivated it hard myself.”

“Devour someone else’s Divine Consciousness Flame？” Old Li’s expression changed drastically.

“Old Li misunderstood. It wasn’t that I forcibly took it. It was in a certain place. There were many martial artists with the Divine Consciousness Flame who died, and their Soul Energies were preserved. I was only able to devour them by coincidence.” Yang Kai explained.

“Your opportunity is really enviable！” Zhai Yao was extremely envious.

Under the heavens, although the martial artists with mutated Divine Consciousness were rare, there were always some. It could only be said that the high-level Alchemists with the Divine Consciousness Flame were probably only Yang Kai and Old Li.

Perhaps there are others who possess the Divine Consciousness Flame, but they are not proficient in alchemy and can only use it to fight.

“I understand.” Elder Li nodded slightly. “Thank you, little friend, for clarifying this for me. This is of great help to me.”

“Elder Li is too polite. I have also benefited a lot from Elder Li.” Yang Kai said quickly. After thinking for a while, he asked, “Didn’t senior have something to tell me just now？”

Previously, Elder Li guessed that Yang Kai had not been apprenticed to the Tianxiao Sect for long, but did not reveal the reason, which made Yang Kai somewhat concerned.

A person like Elder Li would not say something unfounded. Since he did this, there must be some deep meaning.

“Well, this matter may or may not be related to you.” Elder Li smiled and took out a spirit pill and handed it to Yang Kai.

Yang Kai took it and looked at it carefully, and said in surprise, “Isn’t this the spirit pill I refined？”

This spirit pill was exactly the one he refined when he competed with Zhai Yao in the inn last time, and there were still dan lines on it.

“If it is convenient for you, little friend, can you depict the spirit array used when refining this spirit pill？” Elder Li said kindly. “Don’t worry, I’m not trying to pry into what you’ve learned, but just have some doubts.”

“There is nothing inconvenient.” Yang Kai smiled. He was still very relieved of a person like Elder Li. He circulated his true essence and depicted the spirit array he had used before in the pill furnace.

Soon, the spirit array was engraved, and Yang Kai handed the pill furnace over.

Elder Li took it, probed for a while, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. Then he casually handed the pill furnace to Zhai Yao： “You take a look.”

Zhai Yao had a confused look on his face. He took it and probed. After a while, he couldn’t help but let out a light eh sound, as if he had discovered something interesting.

“What’s the matter？” Yang Kai was confused by these two masters and apprentices.

“Interesting.” Zhai Yao looked at Yang Kai with a smile. “The spirit array used by Brother Yang is slightly different from the one we are using now. It seems to be a very ancient technique.”

“Hmm.” Elder Li nodded slightly. “It is indeed a very ancient spirit array, a lost kind. Compared with the spirit array we are using now, it is undoubtedly more useful.”

“I learned it from a very ancient book.” Yang Kai explained. “If Elder Li wants it, I can engrave all the spirit arrays I have learned.”

Elder Li smiled and said： “No need. The reason I asked you these things is not because I covet your knowledge, but because Elder Li and I have seen this kind of spirit array before. So I think, that may be related to you.”

Yang Kai frowned： “I’d like to hear the details！”

“Brother Yang, it’s like this.” Zhai Yao took over the conversation. “Since I was a child, I have been cultivating with my teacher in the mountains and learning the way of alchemy. After twenty years, just a few years ago, my teacher decided to take me out of the mountains and experience the world. I always thought that with my alchemy level, among my peers in the world, I was probably invincible. But in this Floating Cloud City, I lost to Brother Yang… And before that, I also lost to another person, just two years ago！”

Yang Kai was shocked when he heard this： “There is still someone who is better than Brother Zhai in alchemy？”

“That’s right. The most depressing thing for me is that that person is still a woman！” Zhai Yao looked at Yang Kai with a smile.

Yang Kai was stunned, and suddenly seemed to think of something. His eyes lit up and he asked eagerly: “What kind of woman?”

“I don’t know. That woman was wearing a veil, with a sapphire on her forehead. Her eyes were very bright and clear. She should be a beauty and looked a little simple and honest.”

Yang Kai’s breathing gradually became rapid and his voice trembled as he said： “Was there a lecherous old guy beside her？”

“Lecherous？” Zhai Yao looked blank. “Probably lecherous. Anyway, that old guy gave the feeling of being disrespectful for his age.”

“Does that old guy have the surname Meng？” Yang Kai took a deep breath.

“It really has something to do with little brother.” Elder Li nodded slightly. “Previously, when I saw the traces of the spiritual array used in this spiritual pill, I had some guesses, but I didn’t dare to be sure. Now it seems that little brother and that girl come from the same line？ After all, the spiritual arrays you use are the same.”

“Yes, that’s my senior sister！” Yang Kai nodded heavily.

There is no mistake. Two years ago, the person who defeated Zhai Yao with alchemy must be Xia Ning Shang undoubtedly！ Under the whole world, only Xia Ning Shang can do this. There is no possibility of anyone else.

“Which sect are you from exactly? You are all so powerful.” Zhai Yao looked speechlessly. “That woman is fine. It seems that her natural constitution is different. She doesn’t need a pill furnace at all when refining pills. She can refine pills by gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the pill patterns and so on can be refined at will. I competed with her three times, and the result was a complete defeat. I was hit hard. You are even more outrageous. You actually have the advantage of the fire of spiritual consciousness. I really can’t compare with you two senior and junior brothers and sisters.”

“She does have a special constitution, a constitution born specifically for alchemy.” Yang Kai nodded his heart extremely excited. After searching for so long, he finally found a useful clue.

“Medicine Spirit Saint Physique！” Old Li suddenly said, “No wonder… So what she has is the Medicine Spirit Saint Physique！ Given time, her achievements will surely be above mine. That old bastard Meng Wuya is actually still so mysterious and refuses to reveal it to me.”

Yang Kai’s expression moved. Judging from Old Li’s address to Meng Wuya, the two seemed to have known each other for a long time and were of the same generation.

“Senior, when you met them, did you see anyone else？ I have another senior sister and friend with them.”

“Don’t tell me she is also proficient in alchemy？” Zhai Yao asked with a bitter face.

“No.” Yang Kai shook his head.

“This we didn’t see. Meng Wuya seemed to only bring that little girl surnamed Xia.”

Yang Kai’s face sank, and his heart became anxious.

Meng Wuya brought Xia Ning Shang , so where is Su Yan？ Where is the Earth Demon？ Where did they two go？

There is no need to worry about the Earth Demon. He is originally from the Tongxuan Continent and has occupied the body of a Demon General. Except for Saint Realm powerhouses, I’m afraid no one can harm him. But Su Yan is different. She is a woman alone, her strength is not very strong, and she is as beautiful as a celestial being. What if she encounters danger？

What is the reason that made her separate from Meng Wuya? Or has she already encountered some accident?

Yang Kai’s heart suddenly sank to the bottom, and he couldn’t help but start to have wild thoughts.
