" Un… Where? Where am I?"
Chu Li mumbled as her eyes completely opened. She looked at her surroundings and saw the group of elders along with Xia Yuqing.
" Sec-Sect Master!"
She tried to get up hurriedly, but Long Ming held her.
" You are still recovering. Calm down first."
" Ah! Senior Brother Long…"
Chu Li looked at LongMing as she nodded. " I… I ate the pills you gave last night, along with that purple mass of qi. The orb in my dantian reacted to it and exploded. After that, I saw a blue carp jumping inside my divine sea as it tried to break free. However, it couldn't…"
" It's alright." Xia Yuqing spoke. " You are fine now. Your physique is completely awakened. You can be rest assured now."
" I... My physique really awakened? So, I have a Noble-grade physique now?" Chu Li was startled. " What kind of physique it is?"
Xia Yuqing looked at Chu Li as she spoke. " There are nurous Noble grade Physique's across the world. However, there are only 330 Royal Grae physiques and 33 Imperial Physiques listed."
" The nas of the physique might be deferent, but all of them connected as branches to these listed physiques."
" Since you have a Water attribute Noble grade physique, you have a chance to transform it into a Royal or imperial grade physique of the sa attribute. However, for that, you will need a corresponding technique."
Long Ming also heard Xia Yuqing's explanation as he nodded. " If that's the case, how about we na it River Carp Physique?"
" River Carp Physique? It sounds good." Xia Yuqing spoke.
" But, What kind of technique she will cultivate in the future?" Wu Liang spoke. " After all, I don't think the Winter branch technique will be suitable for her."
Long Ming chuckled when he heard that. " Grand Elder, If you permit, How about I teach Chu Li? After all, I got a thorough enlightennt in the Soaring Water Moon Art. It will be a good technique for Chu Li, no?"
" You are going to teach her?"
Everyone beca startled when they heard Long Ming's proposal. However, when they rembered Long Ming reaching the Initial Completion stage in one hour, they couldn't oppose his reasoning.
Maybe, It would be better if Long Ming taught Chu Li.
Xia Yuqing looked at Chu Li as she spoke. " What do you think, Chu Li? Are you willing to study under your Senior Brother?"
Chu Li was shocked as she hurriedly cupped her fist. " How could I let go of such a chance? I am willing, Sect Master."
" Then, You can get admitted to Solitary Flower Peak." Xia Yuqing replied.
" Sect Master, I have refined the pills. I brought them here…"
Elder Liang ca hurriedly as she held a jade bottle. But she was stunned when she saw the scene.
" Huh? This girl woke up?" Elder Liang was shocked when she saw Chu Li. She couldn't believe Chu Li would wake up this fast, even without eating any pills.
" Haha, Elder Liang, It looks like you are late." An elder laughed when Elder Liang's expression turned stiff.
" Long Ming used his technique and awakened the physique inside Chu Li. By the ti you finished refining the pill, she is already awake."
" How… How is that possible?"
Long Ming only smiled when he saw Elder Liang. But his smile stiffened when a notification popped out.
[ Ding! Elder Liang's favorability toward you decreased by 20 points!]
' Wh-What?'
Long Ming almost got choked when he saw that.
" Haha, Good, I guess Long Ming is quite a talent, huh?" Elder Liang looked at Long Ming. " It took so ti to refine the pills. But, I guess it's unnecessary now."
' Is she angry because she made pills yet unable to help Chu Li?' Long Ming's suspicion grew when he saw the smiling face of Elder Liang.
She couldn't be THAT petty, right?
" No, Elder Liang. Why would we waste the pills?" Long Ming cleared his throat before he spoke. " After all, Even now she can use the pill and improve her River Carp Physique."
" Indeed, Long Ming is right. Elder Liang, You didn't waste any ti at all." Wu Liang spoke.
Elder Liang's face was still brimming with a smile when she heard that. " Alright, That's also true. Here, Chu Li, take this as a gift."
Chu Li held the dicinal bottles as she bowed. " Thank you, Elder Liang. You are generous."
Xia Yuqing nodded. "Besides that, Give three bottles of True Core Pill and a bottle of Spirit Rejuvenation pill to Chu Li."
" Yes, Sect Master."
Elder Liang nodded as she bowed. However, Long Ming's gaze didn't falter as he kept looking at Elder Liang.
" Alright, Since everything is over, you all can return." Xia Yuqing turned around and vanished. The other elders also took leave.
Long Ming looked at Chu Li and smiled. " Chu Li, Co with . We are going to my Solitary Flower Peak."
" Yes, Senior Brother," Chu Li bowed as she nodded. " I am also thankful to you, Senior Brother. You helped so much. Without you, I might have not been able to awaken my physique."
" Haha, No worries. After all, You are going to study under now." Long Ming smiled as he looked at the bottle of pills in her hand.
" Chu Li, can you give the dicinal bottle that Elder Liang gave you?"
" Here, Senior Brother."
Long Ming opened the bottle as a rich dicinal aroma drifted out. Long Ming could feel that the pill was recently concocted. It was dense with water elental qi.
But that's the point that made Long Ming even more suspicious.
Elder Liang was the Hall master of dicinal Hall, so Long Ming expected her to be wise in dicinal arts. In Chu Li's previous condition, what she needed was dicinal pills with a limited amount of water elental energy as she was in a trance-like state.
However, Elder Liang produced pills that were completely rich with Water elental energy. Like, it was a bit too dense for being used by a patient.
' It's impossible for Elder Liang to do that out of mistake. After all, even Grand Elder instructed her that. But… How could she do this? Unless… It's intentional?'
Suddenly, Long Ming's eyes turned cold when he realized that the Four Seasons Valley might not be as peaceful as it looked.
' Fuck this shit. Can't you give so tranquility? Fucking villains everywhere.' Long Ming grumbled inwardly. He felt there might be so hidden undercurrents inside the Four Seasons Valley.
" What happened, Senior Brother? Is there any problem with the pills?"? Chu Li asked Long Ming.
" Not really. You can take it back." Long Ming smiled at her and handed her the dicine. " Chen Yin, take her to the Inner Sect and give her so basic instructions."
" As you say, Brother Long." Chen Yin nodded as she looked at Long Ming. But, she paused and looked at Long Ming.
" Actually… Senior Brother… and Lin Xie feeling so confusion regarding our techniques. Can you help us to resolve them?"
Long Ming looked at Chen Yin's expression as a realization struck his head.? " Ah… I see. Don't worry, Chen Yin. You and Lin Xie can co to my courtyard this evening. I will help you."
" Hehe, Thank you, Brother Long." Chen Yin beca ecstatic when she heard Long Ming.
When Long Ming returned, he sat in his courtyard as he fell into thought. He decided to practice so new techniques as he looked at his spatial bracelet and took out two things.
The technique was called Rushing Lightning Steps. It utilizes the lightning energy and increases one's agility.
Lightning is one of the fastest and most destructive elents. Using this movent technique, one can easily outmatch their opponent's abilities.
Long Ming pondered for a mont and he learned the technique. His golden core humd as a cloud of lightning covered it. Long Ming felt a rush of lightning qi inside his body as his body felt energized.
*BOOM BOOM BOOM*
The lightning qi flowed in his legs as Long Ming disappeared from his position. He blinked across the entire courtyard with extre speed like a zap of lightning. After that, he jumped and rushed out from his Solitary Flower Peak.
It was at least a path of ten kiloters. But Long Ming managed to reach the entrance bin in just a few breaths of ti.
' Haah! Haah! This…This is amazing!' Long Ming panted as he looked at his surroundings.
With his Spatial Light Body, he can indeed teleport. However, it is only limited to a small radius. However,? Rushing Lightning Steps are different. It can be considered a powerful movent technique.
It's a Noble grade technique. But when cultivated to the peak, it can rival a Royal grade technique.
When Long Ming looked at his feet, he realized the power of his steps and even charred the grass with crackling lightning. So, if he kicks soone in extre speed, won't it turn into a lethal attack?
Long Ming grinned, satisfied with the result as he returned to his Solitary Flower Peak.
But then, he saw Luo Yinying already arrived there.
" Senior Brother Long, You have been neglecting the rune inscription practicing." Luo Yingying spoke.
" Now, you must accompany in making new talismans and formations."
