Ignoring his disciples mishandling of the spiritual herbs, Xuan Hao soon continued his journey back towards the Seventh Star Peak. The only difference compared to before being that Qing Yi was now following him as she eagerly asked about his help when it ca to improving her alchemy.
Considering that both of them had reached the Artisan Realm at this point in ti, he didn't try to do sothing beyond his abilities and instead decided to just use so of the vast knowledge he had obtained through the system to expand her field of view regarding the different potions, pills and spiritual herbs that existed out there.
Although it was not nearly as useful as if he had been in the Master Realm and had the ability to teach her how to progress in the Artisan Realm, the expansion of knowledge regarding alchemy still helped improve her understanding of alchemy to a degree that was large enough for Qing Yi to full believe that her master's understanding of alchemy was still far beyond her own.
At the sa ti, the fact that he was now having a hard ti teaching Qing Yi when it ca to alchemy, reminded him of the ergency quest he just had to go through because Bai Ning had ended up surpassing him.
No matter what, he didn't want to get another ergency quest from the system again in the future. After all, he had no idea if he would be lucky enough to stumble upon a blacksmith that happened to break through to the Saint Realm just when he was around. Not to ntion, he had no idea if the system would only want him to reach the Pseudo Saint Realm the next ti around.

After all, the last ergency quest had appeared when Bai Ning had reached the Artisan Realm and had begun taking steps towards the Master Realm. If the next ergency quest appeared due to Qing Yi reaching the Master Realm in alchemy, he might very well end up facing an ergency quest that required him to beco a Saint Realm Alchemist within three months, sothing he wanted to avoid at all costs if possible…
"Master is it really true that sothing like the wobbly pill will turn one's bones into a wobbly, gel-like substance, making movent difficult and uncoordinated. Serving no practical purpose other than being a rather unsettling experience, exists? Who would make sothing like that? Isn't it just a waste of spiritual herbs?" As they were about to reach the entrance of the palace, Qing Yi could not help curiously asking about one of the pills that her master had taught her about during their rather long journey back to the Seventh Star Peak. Feeling a sense of wonder as to whether or not the wobbly pill described by her master really existed. Not able to convince herself that an alchemist would waste their ti developing sothing like that... And all of this not even ntioning the fact that the wobbly pill was of the Soul Grade and required quite a few spiritual herbs to create.
"Indeed… It's a waste of spiritual herbs, but the wobbly pill does exist. Although, I doubt there would be anyone willing to create such a pill outside of soone trying to find new ways of torture soone." Nodding his head in agreent with what Qing Yi said, Xuan Hao also felt that the existence of the wobbly pill was a waste of resources.
Even then, according to the information about the pill that he got from the system, the wobbly pill did indeed exist sowhere out there.
Thinking about it, the unlucky alchemist who happened to obtain the recipe for the wobbly pill might even be unlucky enough to misunderstand its effect and think that it's so kind of bone tempering pill that can help enhance the strength of one's body…
"Alchemist really are… Unique…" Muttering this after hearing what her master said, Qing Yi felt like her view of the alchemy profession had been overturned with the existence of a single pill. Not only that, but she also realized that the other pill that her master had ntioned on their way back to the palace should also be real.
As this realization set in, Qing Yi realized that her way of handling alchemy might have been wrong, alchemy was not just about the creation of pills and elixirs that assisted soone in their cultivation.
"Master, I seem to have gained so inspiration after our conversation-
"I understand, you can leave." "Thank you!" Knowing that Qing Yi seed to have gained so kind of enlightennt in the Dao of Alchemy after being exposed to the different weird pills and elixirs of the system, Xuan Hao sent her off. Understanding that even a single second wasted might end up ruining his little disciple's chance.
"Hm? Qing Yi? Wha are-"
Whoosh-!
Stepping out of the palace just at this mont, Bai Ning barely managed to dodge Qing Yi as she dashed inside the palace in the direction of her room without saying anything, her full attention being focused on the spark of enlightennt she had experienced just now. Not daring to think of anything else in fear that it might end up disrupting what she had gained from the mont of enlightennt she had just experienced.
Thump~
In the end Bai Ning was unlucky and could be considered to be at the wrong place at the wrong ti, as the wind dragged along by Qing Yi's fast speed hit him directly in the stomach. Knocking him to the ground in one fell swoop.
It didn't matter how strong he was in the Core Formation Realm; Qing Yi was still soone in the Nascent Soul Realm. Even the wind created by her rushing past him was enough to knock him over and take the wind out of his lungs.
"Haaa… What was that for…?" Getting up a few seconds after Qing Yi disappeared into the palace, Bai Ning could not help silently cursing his senior sister for her rude behavior.
"Huh?"
However, it was also at this mont that he realized that his senior sister did not co alone. No, soone ca along with her and from the looks of things, the person was-
"Master!?"
Realizing that the person who had been standing beside his senior sister this ti around was none other than his master, soone he had been searching for over the past month, as he already reached the requirent set up by Xuan Hao for him to teach him about how to reach the Master Realm in Blacksmithing.
"Indeed, it's . Don't bla your senior sister too much for earlier, she just happened to experience enlightennt for the first ti and should be rather excited about using this opportunity to increase her own understanding of the Dao of Alchemy. Maybe she might even be able to increase her cultivation,"
"This… To think that senior sister managed to experience the feeling of enlightennt after talking with master about alchemy!" Hearing that his senior sister had actually managed to experience the legendary enlightennt that he had only ever heard about in legends or from the elders of the sect, Bai Ning could not help himself from looking forward to learning more about blacksmithing from his master.
After all, at this point in ti he had already waited for a month longer than what he and his master had first agreed on, so he eager to get started as fast as possible so he could be gin starting to break through to the Master Realm and beco the first Master Blacksmith of the Star Shattering Sect.
Of course, excluding the recently joined Yi Min, who had managed to reach the Pseudo Saint Realm. Far exceeding the Master Realm that she had been in only a few months earlier.
"M-master~ Can-"
"Let's move to the Sea of a Thousand Furnaces before starting, I will guide you into reaching the Master Realm there… And don't try to do that again!" Hearing Bai Ning suddenly call out to him in a coy tone of voice, completely unbefitting of him, Xuan Hao imdiately interrupted him before he had a chance to say anything more before warning him to not do that again.
"Yes!"
Understanding that his master would be teaching him blacksmithing like he wanted, Bai Ning just happily nodded his head before following after his master as both of them began making their way towards the Sea of a Thousand Furnaces.
During the entire journey there, Xuan Hao made sure to keep both of them out of sight of any of the disciples moving past them, while at the sa ti answering any of the questions that Bai Ning had regarding blacksmithing.
Now that he was officially soone in the Pseudo Saint Realm, he was more than qualified to teach soone like Bai Ning, who had not even reached the Master Realm yet.
At least for now, he didn't have to worry about his disciple overtaking him when it ca to blacksmithing…
