Once Yang Xiao was alone in the bedroom,
He got to work.
First, he fetched a basin of water.
Then, he dug up so dirt and took a piece of gold from his money pouch.
Of these three items, Yang Xiao first placed the gold into the water to soak.
After finishing, he closed his eyes and began to ditate.
About a quarter of an hour later, he walked over to the basin where the gold was soaking.
He subrged his hand in the water, sensing it carefully. Suddenly, with a slight flick of his hand inside the basin, a single water droplet landed on his palm.
This water droplet was extrely strange, for it was shimring with a Golden Light.
"tal generates Water. It worked!"
Yang Xiao smiled, took out the Thousand-year-old Red Blood Orchid, and with a gentle flick, dripped the droplet onto its dark purple-streaked root.
In an instant, this orchid-shaped Spirit dicine, already as fiery red as blood, turned an even more intense shade of crimson.
The crimson color began to spread toward the root.
It was as if the plant intended to assimilate this last trace of impurity.
"Water generates Wood, Wood flourishes, and Fire is born!"
Yang Xiao smiled faintly, took out the dirt he had prepared earlier, and planted the now sowhat strange Thousand-year-old Red Blood Orchid in it.
Before long, the Thousand-year-old Red Blood Orchid beca even more intensely red until finally, even its root had turned a solid crimson.
Only then did Yang Xiao smile in satisfaction. 'It worked! The reverse generation of the Five Elents, inverting the cycle of creation and destruction. Wood generates Fire, dissolving its own wood nature. Now, this Thousand-year-old Red Blood Orchid has beco a purely fire-attribute Spirit dicine!'
Seeing that the Thousand-year-old Red Blood Orchid was now a uniform crimson without a trace of impurity, he could even faintly sense the world's Fire Elental Power gathering toward it.
It was as if it was about to condense a True Fla at any mont.
If any Great Pharmacists were to witness this, they would surely be astounded and view him as a Celestial Being.
Any Great Pharmacist could have seen that the Thousand-year-old Red Blood Orchid, originally composed of eight parts Fire Elental Power and two parts Wood Elental Power, had been transford into pure Fire Elental Power. Moreover, its dicinal potency had suffered almost no loss; in fact, it seed to have been slightly enhanced.
'The reverse generation thod of the Five Elents is as useful as ever,' he thought. 'Now, let's see to what level this Spirit dicine can elevate the fire seed within .'
Picking up the Spirit dicine, which was already growing hot to the touch, Yang Xiao swallowed it in a single gulp while it was on the verge of erupting with power.
The mont he swallowed, a terrifying wave of heat surged from his mouth straight into his chest and abdon.
Yang Xiao's entire body turned bright red, like a cooked prawn.
His qi and blood boiled, and veins bulged on his skin. His whole body began to swell slowly, like an overinflated balloon on the verge of popping.
'This body is a bit weak... It can't even handle this much dicinal power. Sigh...'
Despite the dangerous situation, Yang Xiao wasn't the least bit worried. He even had the presence of mind to lant his body's weakness.
If anyone outside were to find out, they would likely be left completely dumbfounded.
Utterly horrified.
After all, ordinary Martial Artists wouldn't dare to consu even a First-Grade Spirit dicine so carelessly.
They would either refine it into a pill, brew it into a decoction, or cut off a small piece to ingest. While this would cause so of the dicinal properties to be lost, it was the only way to safely absorb its potency.
For soone like Yang Xiao to swallow an entire Fourth-Grade Spirit dicine whole was simply inconceivable. An ordinary person who tried this wouldn't be able to absorb a single shred of its potency.
Instead, their body would explode on the spot, resulting in imdiate death.
At that mont, Yang Xiao also felt the dicinal potency running rampant through his body. As his qi and blood churned, so of his blood vessels had already burst.
However, he felt no tension, no pain—only anticipation.
His own remnant soul had taken over this body, rging with its original, fragnted soul. But that wisp of Innate Origin Fire was hidden sowhere within, its location unknown.
It was far too weak.
But Spirit dicine was its favorite food.
Such a massive amount of berserk dicinal power was sure to lure it out.
As for his body exploding, he was confident he could prevent that with his current Spirit Will.
'It's coming!'
Yang Xiao's Heart Spirit trembled.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before a fla so dim it was nearly transparent drifted out from his heart. Yang Xiao's eyes instantly lit up.
Although the rampaging dicinal potency was causing him imnse discomfort,
and his body had already sustained nurous internal injuries,
as long as he could lure out the Innate Origin Fire, it was all worth it.
Yang Xiao imdiately focused his will upon the Innate Origin Fire, controlling it, guiding it downward until it finally entered and settled within his body's Qi Sea.
The Essence Qi there was completely withered.
This was the root cause of the body's previous owner's inability to cultivate.
But as soon as the Innate Origin Fire appeared, a trace of vitality instantly erged in that dead, silent space.
Simultaneously, Yang Xiao used all his strength to rge the dicinal potency into his qi and blood. His Qi Blood Power, already at the Martial Disciple Peak, instantly swept up the imnse dicinal potency and surged into the Qi Sea, pouring into the wisp of Innate Origin Fire.
The Innate Origin Fire began to glow brighter.
On the verge of dissipating just monts ago, it now grew steadily more brilliant.
Its color also began to gradually change.
It shifted from transparent and colorless to a pale red, as if tinged with blood. But Yang Xiao knew this wasn't the color of blood; it was the first form of a Heaven and Earth Origin Fla.
The Red Fla Realm.
...
With such a good start, the rest of the process unfolded naturally.
A massive amount of dicinal potency flowed into the Innate Origin Fire, and a ball of crimson fla gradually took shape.
Finally, after an unknown amount of ti, once the Spirit dicine's potency within him was completely exhausted, the ball of crimson fla finished coalescing and stabilized.
'Just the Red Fla Realm? And only the Mid-stage Red Fla at that, not even the Great Success of the Red Fla Realm... This dicinal potency is truly pathetic.'
Yang Xiao was far from satisfied.
However, he also knew that in his current state, a Fourth-Grade Spirit dicine was the best he could hope to acquire. To find sothing better...
It would be difficult.
Far too difficult.
'Still, it was a success in the end. Ti to try out the feeling of cultivation.'
Yang Xiao smiled.
He sat cross-legged and began to absorb the Fire Elental Power from the heavens and the earth.
He didn't use a Cultivation Technique. No, he didn't need one. A Heaven and Earth Origin Fire possessed the innate ability to control and absorb Fire Elental Power.
Its speed surpassed that of any Cultivation Technique.
Thus, in a re instant, all the Fire Elental Power from the surrounding ten li was absorbed into Yang Xiao's body.
But all this Fire Elental Power wasn't even enough to deepen the color of the crimson fla inside him by the slightest shade.
Yang Xiao's expression changed at once.
'It seems the Fire Elental Power in this world is even sparser than I imagined. At this rate, it will take at least several months of just absorbing Fire Elental Power to reach the Great Success of the Red Fla Realm.'
Too slow.
Far too slow.
He knew that the Red Fla Realm was only the first stage of a Heaven and Earth Origin Fire, belonging to the level of Mortal Fire.
To break through this single realm required one Fourth-Grade Spirit dicine plus several months of non-stop cultivation. Yang Xiao found such a pace utterly unbearable.
'Looks like I'll have to find more Spirit dicines. Maybe I should check out the Spirit dicine Marketplace? I might find sothing unexpected there.'
