    Chapter Index

    Yu Xian remained calm and unmoved by the burning gazes of the twenty-odd Foundation Establishment alchemists below.

    He glanced around and said calmly, “The first person who needs alchemy may come and have their pills made.”

    “Senior Brother Holy Son!”

    As Yu Xian spoke, a man strode over and respectfully bowed, saying, “Jiang Cheng of the Spirit Beast Sect requests the Holy Son Senior Brother to bestow a pill upon me!”

    Sitting in the hall refining elixirs, the work was mundane.

    Given Yu Xian’s current influence, no one would dare to cause trouble or make trouble; they would all respectfully ask for pills.

    Thus, two pills a day, simple and easy.

    Before I knew it, a month had passed.

    After the last batch of pills was refined, Yu Xian put away the pill furnace, stood up and looked around, and said indifferently, “I have finished refining pills in my hall. I would like to inform you all that I will no longer refine pills for the next three years. I will be going into seclusion to cultivate.”

    The people around were all startled, their eyes filled with anxiety. There were only sixty people! There were still many people waiting to ask for the pills!

    Despite their immense anxiety, they ultimately could not and dared not ask Yu Xian to stop his seclusion and instead refine pills specifically for them.

    Therefore, everyone could only bow to Yu Xian and say, “May Senior Brother Shengzi make great progress in his seclusion! May you soon reach the Golden Core stage!”

    Yu Xian smiled slightly and returned the greeting, saying, “Thank you for your kind words, fellow disciples. I’ll take my leave now.”

    After saying that, he stepped down from the platform and walked away calmly.

    As everyone watched Yu Xian’s tall figure calmly leave the main hall and disappear without a trace, the noise returned, with various discussions filling the air.

    There are countless mysterious discussions surrounding this newly arrived fourth holy son of the Haotian Orthodox Sect, a master alchemist, and the terrifying figure who slew the heretical holy son Mu Hanling…

    Yu Xian left the main hall and then turned and headed up the mountain peak.

    He said he was going to find Su Xiaoduo a month ago, so naturally he wouldn’t break his promise.

    At the top of the mountain, the main hall of the Alchemy Sect remained unchanged, but the sect leader had left a message to go into seclusion, so no one came to disturb him.

    But Yu Xian’s arrival was not considered a disturbance.

    As soon as he arrived, before he could even speak, the doors of the main hall opened by themselves. Su Xiaoduo poked her head out, her face beaming with joy, and waved, saying, “Senior brother, come in quickly, come in quickly.”

    Yu Xian smiled and waved, saying, “I won’t go in, so as not to disturb the sect leader’s seclusion. Come here, I’ll give you something that should be of some use to you.”

    “oh……”

    Seeing that Yu Xian wasn’t going into the hall, Su Xiaoduo could only nod in disappointment, walk out of the hall, and quickly run to Yu Xian, her face full of anticipation, and ask, “Senior brother, what are you going to give me?”

    Yu Xian took out a storage bag and handed it to Su Xiaoduo, saying, “Inside are some powerful spells and magic treasures. Your silkworm cultivation technique is quite good, so you don’t need to change it. You can use these spells to cultivate, and the magic treasures should also be suitable.”

    The spells in this storage bag were all spells that Yu Xian thought were quite powerful, but had not studied.

    For example, there are several spells left behind by Mu Hanling, but Yu Xian already possesses quite a few spells, so it’s pointless to learn more than he can chew.

    “It’s the Nine Silkworm Molting Technique!”

    Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoduo gave a reproachful look, reached out and took the storage bag, and giggled, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”

    Yu Xian smiled and said, “No need to thank me, you’re my sister.”

    Su Xiaoduo’s smile faltered slightly, then returned to normal, still smiling, but she didn’t say anything.

    Yu Xian laughed and said, “Alright, I’m leaving. I’m going into seclusion again, which will probably last for three years. You should also cultivate well. We’ll meet again in three years.”

    “Okay, then see you in three years.”

    Su Xiaoduo smiled and nodded.

    Yu Xian smiled and said, “Let’s go back.”

    Having said that, he turned and strode away.

    As Su Xiaoduo watched Yu Xian’s retreating figure, her smile became forced, and a deep sadness appeared in her eyes.

    However, she quickly adjusted her mindset and muttered to herself, “Sister? Not even blood-related… Humph…”

    As he spoke, he happily took the storage bag and ran back to the main hall.

    Yu Xian descended from the Alchemy Peak and returned to his small courtyard.

    The matter is basically over. Although there was a minor incident involving Yang Lin, it didn’t have a significant impact.

    Now I will spend three years carefully perfecting the Heavenly Star Six Elements Grand Array, the Wind Word Technique, the sword techniques within the Azure Spirit Sword, the Spirit Void Fan, the Mysterious Void Ruler, the Flying Sand Soul Gourd, and even the Great Elixir Body Refining Technique.

    In the final ten years, he will devote himself to comprehending the Longevity Wood Spring Technique, striving to feel the rules of heaven and earth and step into the Core Formation stage within ten years!

    With these thoughts in mind, Yu Xian slowly exhaled and waved his hand to activate the courtyard’s array.

    Just as they were about to lock it in place, a fluctuation suddenly came from outside the formation, and the next moment a voice passed directly through the formation to Yu Xian’s ears.

    “I envy you, my humble abode is at peace.”

    “Fu Ning’an…”

    Yu Xian had a deep impression of Fu Ning’an and also felt goodwill towards him.

    This Supreme Fifth Elder had helped him a lot in the Xuan Tian Secret Realm, once saving his life. He also had a good personality, was not condescending, and was not angry that he had not become his disciple.

    But why is he looking for me today?

    Does he intend to take me as his disciple again?

    Yu Xian thought to himself, got up and walked out of the main room, waved his hand to open the formation, and walked out of the courtyard.

    Fu Ning’an was indeed standing at the door.

    Yu Xian quickly bowed and said, “This disciple greets the Supreme Fifth Elder.”

    “No need for formalities.”

    Fu Ning’an raised his hand and walked into the courtyard as if it were his own place.

    Yu Xian didn’t take it to heart. He followed him into the courtyard, closed the gate, waved his hand to activate the formation, and then respectfully asked, “I wonder if the Fifth Elder has come to see me for something?”

    Fu Ning’an turned to look at Yu Xian and laughed, “What, can’t I come to see you if there’s nothing wrong? You’re really something, kid. The fourth Holy Son, tsk tsk, a Holy Son without a Nascent Soul master, you’re one of a kind.”

    Yu Xian showed a look of shame and said, “This disciple was just lucky. The title of Holy Son is something this disciple is truly unworthy of…”

    “Hey, you can handle it.”

    Fu Ning’an smiled and waved his hand, saying, “In the cultivation world, strength is paramount. You defeated Yang Lin, so you are the fourth Holy Son. What does it matter whether you have a Nascent Soul master or not? There’s no need to be modest.”

    Yu Xian smiled helplessly and stopped arguing.

    Fu Ning’an looked at Yu Xian and smiled after a moment: “However, I have indeed come here today for a matter.”

    Upon hearing this, Yu Xian respectfully replied, “Fifth Elder, please feel free to give your orders. If I can do it, I will certainly not refuse!”

    “It’s nothing serious.”

    Fu Ning’an looked at Yu Xian and said with emotion, “Yu Xian, as you know, Haotian Zhengzong is a sect formed by the reorganization of several sects. All the major sects contributed their efforts so that they could progress and become stronger together, and ultimately destroy the evil cultivator Blood River Sect.”

    Yu Xian nodded and said, “This disciple understands. This disciple is also working hard to cultivate for this goal.”

    “Yes, I’m glad you understand.”

    Fu Ning’an said, “Therefore, when everyone gathers here, they will not hide their various techniques and spells. They will exchange, learn from, and share with each other, thereby making themselves stronger.”

    Upon hearing this, Yu Xian’s expression shifted slightly.

    Fu Ning’an… wants my cultivation technique?

    Could it be that he wants the Great Elixir Body Refining Technique? Or the Longevity Wood Spring Technique? Or the Wind Character Technique? Or the Wood Vine Great Art?

    In his previous battle with Yang Lin, he had only revealed these four techniques; he had not used any other spells.

    If he wanted the Great Elixir Body Refining Technique, it was definitely not possible to give it to him; this technique was too domineering and mysterious.

    It’s not impossible for me to continue passing on this technique to the powerful predecessor who left it behind.

    But that’s for later.

    I don’t yet have the strength to resist the greed of these Nascent Soul experts.

    Once its power is revealed, it’s inevitable that these Nascent Soul experts will try to seize it. After all, even if one reveals the entire technique, there will always be people who think they are hiding something and will only want to use the Soul Searching Method to safely and completely obtain it!

    If you want the Longevity Wood Spring Technique, the Wood Vine Great Method, or the Wind Character Technique, then I can give them to you.

    The key to mastering a skill lies not in its ability, but in the person who performs it.

    The same Vine Technique, the Wind Word Technique, even if Yu Xian gave it to others to comprehend, it would definitely be different from what Yu Xian comprehended, and its power would be much weaker.

    As for the longevity wood spring work…

    A cultivation technique that can only be practiced up to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm is quite precious, but it would never interest a Nascent Soul expert, and many Golden Core experts wouldn’t even glance at it.

    “Elder, you…”

    Yu Xian looked at Fu Ning’an and said, “Do you need me to share some kind of magic with you, senior? Please just tell me, I will not hold back.”

    Fu Ning’an immediately laughed.

    Yu Xian is quite sensible, much better than Chu Chuanming, who previously made him hand over the White Feather Heart Sutra.

    If the sect asks you to hand over your cultivation techniques, it will only benefit you, not harm you.

    But you kept it hidden, even using the cultivation technique to bargain with the sect, and even if you eventually got what you wanted.

    But you have left an impression on the sect’s powerful figures that you are greedy, ignorant of your place, lack understanding of the situation, and are ungrateful. Do you still have a chance to receive preferential treatment from the sect’s resources?

    To put it bluntly, your life is not even in your own control.

    What leverage do you have to negotiate with the sect?

    “Since you put it that way, then I won’t waste any more words.”

    Fu Ning’an looked at Yu Xian and smiled, “Your wind magic is quite powerful. I discussed it with the Third Elder, and we believe that this technique was probably left behind by a powerful cultivator who has returned to the Void Realm. It has the value of being collected in the Scripture Pavilion, so we want you to record it on a scroll and hand it over to the sect for the disciples to study. Of course, the sect will not treat you unfairly. You can also tell the sect what you want, and I will try my best to give you satisfactory compensation.”

    “I see.”

    Yu Xian immediately said solemnly, “As a disciple of the Haotian Sect, it is only right for me to contribute to the sect. I have already learned this mere spell. Now, I will record it and hand it over to the sect so that qualified disciples can learn it. This is my duty! It also fits the intention of the predecessor who created this spell! I will record it now.”

    Without hesitation, he took out a blank scroll, raised his hand, tapped it, and closed his eyes to inscribe the text.

    He will leave behind all his insights and methods of operating the Wind Technique, but how much a later practitioner can comprehend depends entirely on their aptitude.

    Those with exceptional talent can even glean deeper insights into the “Wind” technique than they could ever have from it.

    Those with poor aptitude can only become weaker and weaker in their practice, eventually reducing the Wind Technique to the most ordinary wind-type spell.

    In fact, all magic in the world was incredibly powerful when it was first created.

    But as time goes by, as later generations comprehend it, it weakens with each generation, and is then passed down again, which naturally leads to differences in the level of magic.

    Ultimately, those who lack extraordinary talent and comprehension will find it difficult to replicate the original form of the spells comprehended by the great masters of the past!

    Fu Ning’an was surprised by Yu Xian’s quick agreement. His expression faltered slightly, but he smiled, stroked his beard, and nodded with approval in his eyes.

    This boy is truly capable of great things and can be put to great use!

    good!

    I, Fu Ning’an, have not misjudged you.

    Yu Xian quickly burned the disc, and after about half an hour, the burning was finally completed.

    Sweat beaded on his forehead as he put away the scroll and respectfully handed it to Fu Ning’an, saying, “Elder, the scroll of the Wind Word Technique is here. This disciple has not withheld anything from it.”

    “Yes, I believe you.”

    Fu Ning’an smiled and accepted the scroll, saying, “What do you want? The sect won’t take your things for nothing. It’s all about mutual exchange, everyone gets something.”

    “disciple……”

    What do you want?

    Yu Xian didn’t have anything she wanted at the moment.

    How about exchanging contribution points?

    Yu Xian thought to himself, “Why not take it if it’s free? Fu Ning’an isn’t just being polite.”

    This is truly meant for him; it would be foolish for him to refuse it.

    But suddenly an idea struck him, and he looked at Fu Ning’an tentatively, “Disciple… do you wish to know how to control and create puppets?”

    “Um?”

    Fu Ning’an’s smile paused slightly.

    The methods of puppet manipulation and creation are not considered secret techniques in the Puppet Spirit Sect. Most disciples of the Puppet Spirit Sect know them, so they are considered minor skills.

    But what they know is not the true secret manual of the Puppet Spirit Sect!

    The true secrets of the Puppet Spirit Sect in controlling and creating puppets are not to be comprehended by anyone other than a select few inner disciples.

    This is similar to the Heavenly Origin Sword Manual of the Yuan Sword Sect.

    The Xuantian Sect’s Xuantian Secret Manual and other such documents are not accessible to ordinary disciples.

    Since Yu Xian had already spoken, he naturally wouldn’t be asking for the most basic crafting and puppet-controlling techniques.

    That must be the Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique of the Puppet Spirit Sect!

    Well, you’ve got some sense about numbers, kid.

    If he were to directly suggest this exchange, Fu Ning’an would naturally not agree.

    But without saying a word, he decisively inscribed the spell and handed it over first, and then asked somewhat embarrassedly, which put Fu Ning’an in a difficult position.

    You’re using a tactic of retreating to advance, kid…

    However, Fu Ning’an did not refuse. Instead, he pondered for a moment and looked at Yu Xian, asking, “How many contribution points do you have left? You haven’t used them all up, have you?”

    Yu Xian’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, “This disciple still has three thousand contribution points.”

    “Give me 1,500.”

    Fu Ning’an said, “I’ll go get you the Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique, the one Yang Lin cultivates!”

    Yu Xian’s face lit up with surprise and delight. He quickly took out his contribution token and handed it to Fu Ning’an, saying, “Thank you, Elder!”

    Yu Xian’s mental strength is not much worse than Yang Lin’s.

    If one were to acquire this Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique and study it, one could create a few puppets. Even if one or two were not as many as Yang Lin’s five, it would still significantly boost Yu Xian’s combat power!

    It’s not a small increase, it’s a huge surge!

    Because for Yu Xian, a puppet is definitely not a tool that Yang Lin can control from a distance.

    It’s not just an extra “self”!

    The Wind Word Technique, plus 1,500 contribution points, can be exchanged for the Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique—it’s an absolute steal!

    Of course, this was also a personal favor from Fu Ning’an. Otherwise, Cui Sheng would never have agreed to let Yu Xian comprehend the secret manual of the Puppet Spirit Sect. 1,500 contribution points are nothing to a Nascent Soul Elder…

    Fu Ning’an nodded, took the contribution token from Yu Xian, and put it away, saying, “I’ll be right back.”

    Having said that, he took a step forward, completely ignoring the array in the small courtyard, and flew directly from Yu Xian’s courtyard toward the mountain peak.

    Yu Xian watched Fu Ning’an’s departing figure, raised his hand to rub his temples to relieve the headache caused by inscribing the Wind Character Technique, and his eyes were full of joy.

    Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique…

    Puppet creation and control techniques!

    Even if I can’t comprehend it as well as Yang Lin in a short time after I get it, if I have one or two puppets, then killing Yang Lin will be as easy as taking candy from a baby!

    Yu Xian waited in place for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, feeling somewhat uneasy.

    Could Fu Ning’an obtain this method from Cui Sheng?

    What excuse could he possibly use to ask for it?

    If Choi Seung-won found out it was someone else who wanted it, he definitely wouldn’t give it to her.

    Just as he was thinking this, a figure suddenly descended, appearing in front of Yu Xian as if in a flash.

    It was indeed Fu Ning’an.

    “Greetings, Elder!”

    Yu Xian was startled and quickly bowed in respect.

    Fu Ning’an smiled calmly, waved his hand and tossed out a scroll of secret manual and Yu Xian’s contribution token, saying, “This is the first volume of the Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique, which can be cultivated to the point of activating a Golden Core Perfection puppet. Cui Sheng won’t give me the second volume, so there’s nothing I can do. I’ve already deducted eight hundred contribution points.”

    Yu Xian quickly reached out and took the manual and contribution token, bowing and saying, “Disciple! Thank you, Elder!”

    “It’s alright.”

    Fu Ning’an waved his hand and looked at Yu Xian solemnly, saying, “Remember this: as long as you are wholeheartedly devoted to the sect, the sect will never treat you unfairly! This vast sect may very well be yours to lead one day! It may very well be yours to possess!”

    How could Yu Xian dare to accept such a remark? He could only quickly reply, “This disciple will remember!”

    Fu Ning smiled and said, “I heard you’re going into seclusion. Well then, cultivate diligently. I’m off.”

    Having said that, he put his hands behind his back, leaped into the air, and headed away towards the mountain peak.

    Yu Xian stood up, watched Fu Ning’an’s figure disappear into the horizon, let out a soft breath, his eyes filled with joy, and took a step back into the main hall.

    Yu Xian put away the contribution token with his backhand, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down for a moment.

    He then slowly unfurled the scroll of the Heavenly Heart Divine Evolution Technique.
