Chapter 101 - 100 Poor Loose Cultivator Yang Fu

Chapter 101: Chapter 100 Poor Loose Cultivator Yang Fu

Today, under the guidance of Peak Master Li Xuyang, the Qi Refinement disciples were practicing alchemy as he held a jade plate and explained the properties of the medicinal herbs.

“The Gathering Fire Pill is a Pure Fire Spirit Pill that helps Fire Cultivators in the Qi Refinement Realm increase their cultivation speed. It’s extremely fierce and yang-oriented, consisting of three materials: Red Sun Fruit, Volcano Crystal, and Red Flame Grass—all of the Fire Attribute. Combining them often leads to explosions, so the most important thing in crafting these elixirs is patience…”

Boom!

Yang Fushuo’s cyan-blue Spiritual Fire floated out of his hand, entwining the three Fire Element materials together in mid-air and igniting them.

The disciples nearby, who had initially been watching for amusement, swiftly pulled out their Protective Magical Artifacts.

“Everyone, be careful!”

Yang Fushuo comforted them, “Don’t worry, I will not cause the furnace to explode.”

“Of course you won’t! You didn’t even put them into the pill furnace!”

“I get it…you want to blow us all up!”

The surrounding disciples quickly jumped back.

As disciples of the Dan Fire Sect, they were more sensitive to explosions than anyone else and were very adept at protecting themselves.

Those who were not adept had already met their demise along with the pill furnace…

Peak Master Li Xuyang, who had been lecturing, suddenly twitched his eyebrow, stopped his lecture, and transformed into a shooting star, moving beside Yang Fushuo to stop his reckless alchemy.

But upon moving closer and feeling the tranquil aura of the medicinal herbs, he withdrew his hand.

Yang Fushuo, undisturbed, continued his focused alchemy. The cyan-blue Heavenly Level Spiritual Fire merged the three materials together, causing the herbs to grow and emit an increasingly intense Fire Spiritual Energy within the flames.

“Fire ring, gather!”

The cyan-blue fiery halo gathered all the Fire Spiritual Energy surrounding the herbs…

After a series of maneuvers, a red mist appeared.

“Elixir complete!”

Yang Fushuo reached out, and five red elixirs fell into his hand.

“Look, this is how you make elixirs. Understand now?”

Huang Sheng, staring at the five excellently formed elixirs, was utterly stunned.

“It really worked?”

No, how could this man not follow the usual alchemy methods?

At this moment, Huang Sheng, who had memorized the ‘Dan Fire Sect’s Elixir Introduction’, felt his worldview was greatly challenged.

Li Xuyang observed Yang Fushuo’s entire alchemy process, feeling extremely surprised.

“For a Qi Refinement practitioner to perform alchemy bare-handed like this, one needs Innate Spiritual Energy of exceptionally high quality, at least at the Earth Level. What is your name? Which family’s cultivator are you?”

“I’m Yang Fushuo, not affiliated with any family; I came from the True Fire Sect! We have rewards here, right?”

Yang Fushuo, having heard this, had to claim his part; if it’s free, why not?

“That aside, you’ll receive it when you’re initiated…I am familiar with Red Fire Spiritual Energy, Dark Fire Spiritual Energy, Profound Ice Fierce Fire Spiritual Energy… What kind of Innate Spiritual Fire is this, that I’ve never seen before?”

Logically, he knew all the high-grade Innate Spiritual Fires, but Yang Fushuo’s Spiritual Fire…was something he had never encountered.

“This is Liquefied Natural Gas.”

“Such a type of Innate Spiritual Energy exists! It sounds… quite mysterious~”

As Li Xuyang was chatting, he suddenly felt five gazes piercing him from behind. Turning around, he saw his fellow senior and junior disciples glaring at him with murderous intent.

“Peak Master Li, I hope you maintain some distance from my disciple.”

“Today, stepping out and treading upon an auspicious sign, I knew something good was happening. This youth is fated with Ghost Fire Peak…”

“Come, let’s go to Sister’s place. She’ll teach you how to invoke your inner flame.”

A few Foundation Establishment Stage elders surrounded Yang Fushuo.

Li Xuyang frowned slightly: “A group of elders, what kind of decorum is this! To accept a good disciple, you’ve shed all sense of shame—I’m talking about you, Sister Miao!”

“How about this, once my disciple masters my Alchemy Dao, he will go and visit each Peak Master one by one. This way, you all too can feel involved.”

“I am, after all, very generous.”

The others: “???”

“Damn you, Li Xuyang! Last time, you snatched a good disciple from me, and today you want to monopolize again? Accepting disciples should be based on one’s capability!”

“Take this, eat my ghost fire and have nightmares for a year!”

“Tomorrow, I’m going to burn your Medicine Garden Peak’s elixirs.”

The group of Peak Masters started a squabble over the disciple.

Yang Fushuo shrugged his shoulders at a still dazed Huang Sheng, saying, “See? I really can handle it.”

“Come, try the Gathering Fire Pill that your senior brother made.”

Huang Sheng, somewhat confused, popped one into his mouth; immense Fire Spiritual Power erupted, causing his Cultivation Technique to run involuntarily and yielding twice the effect of the Gathering Fire Pills he usually consumed!

Before he could speak, the next moment… a suction force emanated from his body.

The Fire Spiritual Energy began to leak from the bodies of the surrounding disciples, swirling toward him.

“Ah? It even has this miraculous effect?”

At this point, Huang Sheng felt the man before him was a true master and couldn’t help but start calling him senior brother.

The other disciples secretly marveled as well.

Yang Fushuo’s expression changed slightly: “Junior brother, is your body usually well-trained? How good is your endurance?”

“I have consumed a few Body Refinement elixirs… Senior brother, why do you ask so suddenly?”

“Look at the Earth Veins…”

At that moment, the Earth Fire that provided heat to the pill furnace slowly shifted, and a torrential blaze surged up from beneath the furnace!

It was coming straight for Huang Sheng’s dantian!

“Damn it!”

Boom!

Li Xuyang waved his sleeve, sending the Earth Veins Fire back, then set up an array to stabilize the situation again.

Huang Sheng, who had narrowly escaped disaster, squatted on the ground shivering.

“Brother, is this the Gathering Fire Pill?”

Yang Fushuo pondered for a moment…

“Just say if it gathers or not!”

Li Xuyang flicked his sleeve, taking the other four Gathering Fire Pills (Special) from Yang Fushuo’s hand.

“I am Li Xuyang, the Peak Master of Medicine Garden Peak. Would you like to take me as your master?”

The other elders also stepped forward, “Child, choosing a master is a major decision, be careful. The Earth Fire of Medicine Garden Peak is the weakest; following him in alchemy naturally means starting in a valley.”

At this moment, Yang Fushuo didn’t rush to decide; he looked up at the sky and asked softly,

“Ancestor?”

“Li Xuyang.”

“Got it~”

“Master, please accept your disciple’s bow!” Yang Fushuo immediately pledged his discipleship to Li Xuyang.

Dan Fire Sect doesn’t fuss about formalities, a single bow was enough to establish the master-disciple relationship.

“Good, come with me to Medicine Garden Peak.”

Li Xuyang looked at the other elders, his lips curling slightly: “Thank you for your generosity~”

The other elders saw his expression and gritted their teeth in annoyance.

“I’m going to start a war among the peak masters!”

“Oh? What’s the plan, brother? I’ve disliked that Li Xuyang for a long time!”

“Go cut off the Earth Fire of Medicine Garden Peak! Then throw rotten pills at his peak.”

“Great! Let’s go together! Let’s show him what cruelty means!”

Yang Genshuo was definitely paying attention to such a significant day; he had already slowed everything down to the lowest possible speed.

There are too many character cards, can’t click them all, simply can’t finish!

But fortunately, he had seen these few peak masters and elders of Dan Fire Peak coming.

Li Xuyang is young but surprisingly the strongest, a great cultivator at the eighth layer of Foundation Establishment!

Plus, he oversees Dan Fire Sect’s Medicine Garden Peak, where most of the spiritual medicines come from, providing ample materials for Yang Fushuo’s use.

The weakness of the Earth Fire didn’t matter much, because Yang Fushuo used his own Innate Spiritual Fire — Liquefied Natural Gas — for alchemy.

“People in Dan Fire Sect seem quite naïve. Respect is given to those who can perform alchemy, and the peak masters pose no airs; the academic atmosphere is good. Yang Fushuo, this treasure, should do well here…”

Yang Genshuo shifted his focus to another screen where Yang Fu had reached the entrance of True Fire Sect.

After saying goodbye to Yang Shi, Yang Fu, dressed plainly, entered True Fire Sect.

“Hello, I would like to learn under a master.”

The gatekeeper looked at Yang Fu: “It’s not yet time to recruit outer disciples this year. Go back and come again next year…”

“Hold on!” A bearded cultivator came from behind and rebuked: “Every day, Dan Fire Sect thinks of poaching disciples from our True Fire Sect, issuing the infamous ‘Fellow Sect Recruitment Order’ and luring our disciples with elixirs and spiritual fires to defect. And yet you stand in the way of our True Fire Sect recruiting disciples!”

“From today forth, there will be no fixed time. Any cultivator wishing to learn under a master can come and see me.”

“Yes, Hall Master Meng!”

The bearded cultivator, named Meng San, was the Hall Master of the Guiding Hall, responsible for the enrollment, assessment, and promotion of both inner and outer disciples.

“Come, follow me. Have you tested your Spirit Root?”

“I possess Five Spirit Roots…”

“Oh… no worries, having Five Spirit Roots is better than none. Miracles often happen on the path of immortal cultivation, it is not impossible to defy the heavens. How many years have you practiced? What realm have you reached now?”

“I have practiced for nearly 20 years… yet to fully reach Qi Cultivation.”

“At the peak of Fetal Breathing; then you’ll need to work hard. Train well as an outer disciple in our True Fire Sect… do you have spirit stones for use?”

“My family is poor; I brought only some dry food…”

“Tch~ your path of cultivation is truly impoverished, then. I’ll give you 5 low-grade spirit stones later; you can buy some necessities… buy more spirit food, look at you all dried up, your spiritual power isn’t stable.”

Meng San accompanied Yang Fu to register his entry, handed him a set of outer disciple clothing, explained some rules, and then left.

“Sigh… lately, it’s all these impoverished loose cultivators. When can I recruit a cultivator with real talent? Dan Fire Sect lures cultivators with pills and spiritual fire, utterly disgraceful!”

Dan Fire Sect excels in the way of alchemy, naturally much wealthier than these combative folks of True Fire Sect.

The disciples of True Fire Sect are fewer every year as talented cultivators get taken away.

“If no generation of disciples keeps coming, how are we supposed to partake in Upper Sect’s Immortal Path Competition… letting Dan Fire Sect snatch all the spots!”

“Not one Qi Refinement Realm disciple here can fight!”

“Can’t possibly be expecting me to nurture these ungifted, impoverished loose cultivators to carry the burden for the sect?”

…

PS: I admit, I was a bit loud yesterday.

Didn’t finish four chapters, got stuck.

Will definitely make up for it tomorrow!
