Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Switching Cultivation Methods

“Let Fourth Grandpa laugh at me, I could barely refine six pills!” Ye Jingcheng stored them in the pill bottle, feeling quite satisfied.

But it’s important to consider whom you’re showing your satisfaction to.

Given Ye Haiyun’s level of alchemy skill, Ye Jingcheng currently finds it difficult to match.

“It’s already very good!” Ye Haiyun still spoke little, so Ye Jingcheng thought there would be some comments.

However, he only saw Ye Haiyun take over the pill furnace, open the earth fire, and start making pills using Ye Jingcheng’s pill furnace!

He also took out the spiritual medicine materials for the Ice Purity Pill.

All floated in front of him at once.

The Yun Furnace process was completed in one go, as each portion of spiritual medicine was placed into the furnace.

The fire of the earth fire was controlled just right, making the spirit patterns on the pill furnace dance as if in the fire.

The spiritual medicine inside quickly melted, a scene that left Ye Jingcheng somewhat dazed!

However, it must be said, this method of Ye Haiyun’s was far better than telling Ye Jingcheng where the problems were!

Ye Jingcheng quickly took out a jade talisman, watching while recording.

Buzz!

A slight tremor of the pill furnace, the lid flew off, revealing ten complete Ice Purity Pills inside!

An intense fragrance of pills wafted out again!

What surprised Ye Jingcheng was that two of them even had pill patterns!

Ye Haiyun handed the pill furnace and spirit pills to Ye Jingcheng:

“Practice more after you go back. Alchemy is monotonous, overcoming monotony is also a way of cultivation, as is cultivation!” Ye Haiyun spoke again.

This implicitly served as a polite way to usher him out.

Ye Jingcheng had studied for nearly six days and also needed time to digest.

“By the way, when there’s an opportunity, change to a better pill furnace. As a Tier One High-grade Alchemist, using a defective pill furnace greatly affects alchemy!” On the way out, Ye Haiyun added.

Ye Jingcheng nodded in agreement, but before leaving, he brewed a pot of Spirit Tea and placed it on the stone table in the fire room.

Only then did he bow and exit the Earth Fire Room.

Outside, Ye Haitian was still sitting on the stool, studying a jade talisman, with a bell placed in front of him, seemingly about to ring it at any moment to urge the clan members in the Earth Fire Room to come out.

“Grandpa Nine!” Ye Jingcheng greeted respectfully.

At the same time, he took out the remaining Spirit Tea and brewed another pot for Ye Haitian.

Ye Haitian looked at Ye Jingcheng, his face also carrying a smile.

After chatting with Ye Haitian for a while, Ye Jingcheng bid farewell again, as he needed to switch his cultivation and practice the Four Phase Celestial Essence Scripture to the level of the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.

Then, he could begin preparing the advancement pill for the Red Flame Fox, to aid in the advancement of its bloodline.

Back at his own courtyard, Ye Jingcheng took out the jade talisman again, reviewing his gains over the past few days.

After sorting them out, he released a few spirit beasts, feeding them spiritual food, and bestowing them with treasure light.

The first was still the Red Flame Fox, which made the Golden Scale Beast quite eager, the golden gleam in its eyes bursting with energy, growling softly.

Yet it didn’t dare to truly approach, especially after being glared at by the Red Flame Fox, only daring to growl at the Jade Ring Rat.

The Jade Ring Rat squeaked twice, moving closer to the side.

Distribution of spiritual food was still according to the previous method, with the Red Flame Fox needing to enhance its fire attribute spiritual power, so it received two Cyan Spirit Pills and two Spirit Nourishing Pills.

The Golden Scale Beast needed to increase the strength of its golden scales, so it received one Body Tempering Pill and one Cyan Spirit Pill, plus two Spirit Nourishing Pills. Lastly, the Jade Ring Rat received only two plain Spirit Nourishing Pills.

Of course, the treasure light wouldn’t be less for the latter, which sniffed contentedly, quite satisfied compared to the days in the Spirit Beast Bag, nibbling on Spirit Nourishing Pills in the corner, now accompanied by treasure light, a thing that excited the rat.

Once the three spirit beasts were done digesting, Ye Jingcheng ceased cultivation and fetched the materials for the Cyan Spirit Pill, also taking out the Three-Eared Pill Furnace to begin refining the Cyan Spirit Pill.

After the Red Flame Fox consumed two Cyan Spirit Pills and Spirit Nourishing Pills, its flames spewed more vigorously.

Under the roaring flames, the pill furnace turned even more red and glossy in glow.

Ye Jingcheng was already quite proficient in making the Cyan Spirit Pill, making the process not very difficult now.

Given the recent improvement in his alchemy skill.

The first furnace yielded nine Cyan Spirit Pills, which greatly pleased Ye Jingcheng, and he awarded one directly to the Red Flame Fox.

For the next ten days, Ye Jingcheng continued to refine the Cyan Spirit Pill!

Having refined nine furnaces, only failing once, the pill formation rate was already extremely high.

Moreover, even the least successful batch produced seven pills.

From this, Ye Jingcheng acquired a total of sixty-two Cyan Spirit Pills.

With that many Cyan Spirit Pills, Ye Jingcheng hung a sign on the doorpost of his house, advising other Ye Family Members that he was in seclusion for cultivation.

He then activated the array, seating himself on the stone bed.

In his mind, he reinforced all the key points of the Four Phase Celestial Essence Scripture.

After confirming there were no doubts, Ye Jingcheng finally began the cultivation switch.

The warm Li Fire Skill slowly dissipated, replaced by an overwhelming influx of Four-Phase Spiritual Energy.

A distinctly different cultivation path opened within Ye Jingcheng’s body.

Simultaneously, Ye Jingcheng’s aura plummeted from the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer to the Qi Cultivation First Layer in an instant.

Unlike the Li Fire Skill, which required only a dozen meridians for a single circulation, the Four Phase Celestial Essence Scripture covered more meridians, not to mention several hidden ones, making their discovery and widening more challenging.

Fortunately, Ye Jingcheng could withstand loneliness; he wasn’t in a hurry, paving the way step by step, losing track of time.

A month passed, Ye Jingcheng exhaled deeply, once again reaching the Qi Cultivation Third Layer.

The initial transition went exceedingly smoothly, and upon reaching the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, Ye Jingcheng could start consuming the Cyan Spirit Pill.

As a Cyan Spirit Pill was ingested, a large amount of spiritual energy surged within Ye Jingcheng, guided into the new circulation system.

However, the speed was still unsatisfactory to Ye Jingcheng, so he activated the Beast Communication Pattern. With the inflow of the Red Flame Fox’s spiritual power, Ye Jingcheng found his cultivation speed significantly increased!

Surprisingly, it didn’t lag behind the effects of the Cyan Spirit Pill at all!

Ye Jingcheng realized this was because the gap in cultivation between him and the Red Flame Fox was now even larger!

Additionally, Ye Jingcheng could now connect the Beast Communication Pattern to the Golden Scale Beast!

But considering that when the Golden Scale Beast advanced to the late stage of Qi Cultivation, applying the Beast Communication Pattern then would surely have even better effects, possibly aiding him in breaking through to the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer.

Ye Jingcheng abandoned that thought and continued to focus on the cultivation switch.

Once again, a Cyan Spirit Pill appeared in his hand and was placed into his mouth!

With the circulation cultivation, a surge of spiritual light emerged on his body surface, although the light sometimes appeared red, sometimes green, sometimes yellow, and sometimes blue.

The spectacle was quite peculiar, with red being the longest-lasting!

This corresponded to Ye Jingcheng’s strongest fire phase.

Three more months passed, and Ye Jingcheng opened his eyes, with a trace of spirit shadow flashing in his eyes.

He exhaled deeply, once again he was at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer!

Moreover, unlike the somewhat hollow Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer achieved with the Li Fire Skill, this time, the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer was extremely solid.

As he gathered the Fireball Skill again, he found his ability to condense it faster and closer to the Red Flame Fox’s fireball.
