Chapter 116: The Inner Academy Elders Go Crazy!
After obtaining two sets of ingredients from Elder Yan, Xiao Ze returned to the Tianfen Qi Refining Tower.
On the way, he made a stop at Training Hall Number One to have an in-depth exchange with Xiao Yi Xian about the calamity toxin power.
This exchange elevated the cultivation level of both.
Previously, when Xiao Ze focused all his resources on Xiao Xun Er, Xiao Yi Xian managed to keep up thanks to her profound exchanges about the calamity toxin power with Xiao Ze.
This strategy was like "using the left foot to step on the right, spiraling upwards."
However, they couldn't do this exchange too often.
The suddenly increased toxic energy was something Xiao Ze could control, but for Xiao Yi Xian, it was difficult to manage.
Although Xiao Ze could help in part, it mainly depended on Xiao Yi Xian to control the toxic power.
In the future, when Xiao Ze's calamity toxin body was perfected, he could help Xiao Yi Xian control her toxic energy completely without the many troubles faced in the original story, where she had to seal and gather toxic energy repeatedly until forming a symbol for perfect control.
"Well, at this pace, Xiao Yi Xian, you should reach the Dou Wang level in less than six months," said Xiao Ze, letting go of Xiao Yi Xian's hand and feeling the fluctuating energy within her, smiling.
"Maybe, but I'm still far from your level," replied Xiao Yi Xian with a shy smile and a bit of envy.
Why was Xiao Ze's progress so fast when both had the same calamity toxin body?
Compared to the original Xiao Yi Xian, who indiscriminately devoured poisons in the Yun Lan Empire, the current Xiao Yi Xian grew in a more balanced and stable manner.
Though she used Xiao Ze's toxic energy to increase her cultivation level, she trained mostly on her own.
This method, though slower, had great benefits, allowing her to control her toxic energy better instead of devouring poisons without measure.
Xiao Ze stroked Xiao Yi Xian's hair, feeling its softness between his fingers.
"By the way, where has Zi Yan gone?"
"I think she went to the forest again to search for herbs…," replied Xiao Yi Xian.
"This girl really wants to grow up fast," commented Xiao Ze with a smile.
"It's not easy for Zi Yan; she must be very frustrated with her childish appearance," added Xiao Yi Xian with understanding.
Her own body had also matured quickly, becoming more curvaceous and attractive over the years.
If she had to choose, she would undoubtedly prefer her current appearance.
After a brief conversation, Xiao Ze got up to continue his task of refining the three remaining portions of ingredients for the Dou Ling Pill.
He was confident he would soon receive more ingredients continuously. ... In the Inner Academy's Combat Skill Management Office.
Elder Yan entered with his hands behind his back, calm and confident.
Elder Lin, who was reviewing documents, looked up in surprise.
"Yan? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be looking after the pill recipes? What brings you here? Combat skills aren't your interest, right?"
"Lin…" replied Elder Yan, but suddenly, he dropped a pill bottle from his hands.
"Oh, these old bones of mine! It's been so long since I exercised that things slip from my hands!" he said with a smile.
Elder Lin saw the bottle fall and, upon seeing the contents, tore his documents in two, shouting in astonishment.
"Dou Ling Pill!? Yan! Where did you get this? Has Huo Laotou started refining pills again?"
Elder Lin was anxious, not believing a word of Yan's excuse about his clumsiness.
The bottle was protected by dou qi, as if fearing it might get damaged.
"Hehe," laughed Elder Yan, enjoying Lin's amazement.
"Huo Laotou could do it, but he's capricious. I got this from another source…"
"Stop playing, Yan!" exclaimed Lin, impatient.
Elder Yan finally confessed.
"Do you remember Xiao Ze?"
"Why are you mentioning Xiao Ze? Could he have…?" Elder Lin began to understand, swallowing hard.
"Yes, this Dou Ling Pill was refined by Xiao Ze," said Elder Yan, enjoying Lin's surprise.
"Moreover, he asked me to tell the elders who helped him before that if they need a Dou Ling Pill, they can bring three portions of ingredients, and he will refine them at no cost."
"Lin, go and prepare the ingredients. I'm the first to come here, but soon, there will be a storm of ingredient collection for Dou Ling Pills in the academy," advised Elder Yan.
Elder Lin realized the opportunity and, without wasting time, used his dou qi to fly in search of ingredients.
He couldn't miss this unique opportunity!
Elder Yan, seeing Lin leave, felt fortunate to have been the first to know and decided to inform other elders.
Not only those who helped Xiao Ze but also those who didn't know him.
He informed them that there was a new alchemist willing to refine Dou Ling Pills, though he didn't mention the part about doing it at no cost.
Grateful for Xiao Ze's help, Elder Yan did his best to fulfill his request.
Normally, inviting an alchemist to refine pills was costly and required not only the ingredients but also significant compensation.
Some alchemists, like Huo Laotou, only refined pills when they felt like it, regardless of the rewards offered.
Elder Yan's actions created a great commotion among the elders, who began to frantically search for ingredients for Dou Ling Pills.
The academy, with its resources accumulated over the years, could barely meet such demand.
Soon, the surrounding forests were invaded by elders collecting ingredients.
Meanwhile, Xiao Ze, unaware of all this, continued refining Dou Ling Pills, unaffected by the external chaos.
