The Way of the Sword (BL)

Chapter 152: Natural Alchemist

"Brother Liang has the Aura Asura, how do you know that?" asked Zemin Yan full of doubts and a little suspicious.

"Young master, who do you think I am? I was a servant of a master you couldn't even imagine and I also followed your parents. Oh, the number of things I've seen and felt you can't even imagine!" said Hu Zi sighing helplessly. How could he not feel the power of a simple cultivator of the Immortal Realms?

Hu Zi just couldn't penetrate the palace of nirvana and other people's souls, but to analyze the level of cultivation and the other person's body, this was very easy. Also by the attitude of Zhong Liang and the icy aura with indifference could indicate the path of cultivation that this young man followed.

"Anyway, the energy of hell has to do with the most intense fire. It is an energy that burns other energies with ease, so it is quite antagonized by many martial cultivators. The energy of hell can only be gained, one is not born with that energy. The only exception is the men of fire, who are beings who live in the big, hot stars. To acquire externally the energy of hell would you need to find a mysterious fire, the stronger the mysterious fire, the stronger the energy of hell" said Hu Zi trying to explain with the easiest words he could find.

Zemin Yan only understood a few parts because he did not know about the men of fire let alone about the mysterious fires. However, he understood that to obtain the energy from hell one must use outside agents, unlike other energies that people can only be born with.

"The energy of hell and the energy of the vacuum have two things in common. The first thing is that this energy can only be obtained externally and the second thing is that they are highly corrosive energies. Either of the two provided properly manipulated can help you weaken your mother's seal, even if it's just a little. Of course, if you use 10% of the vacuum energy to weaken the seal by 2%, next time you will have to use 20% to weaken the same value of 2%," said Hu Zi, finally getting to the point that Zemin Yan was interested.

"Of course, there is still the question of manipulation. You could turn both energies into items that in the long run would help you weaken the seal on your body. However, the existence of this little ancestral beast at their side and the eggs that are still hatching, they are of a very different level. Just as the men of fire, the Ancient Beast, has the energy of the vacuum in their body, as long as this little beast can recover and strengthen, you as the master of the tiger can benefit from the energy of the vacuum corroding the seal of your lineage" said Hu Zi to show Zemin Yan how important it was for him to take good care of this cub and the eggs.

Even if Hu Zi hadn't said that Zemin Yan was going to take care of the little tiger since he had taken responsibility. However, now, he will try to find a way to restore the core of the beast would become a priority, since this had to do with the seal on his body!

"Unfortunately, there is no item or remedy that restores the core of a beast. Although we have ingredients to create one, however, the young master would need to become a strong enough alchemist to be able to create this miraculous remedy to restore the core of the little tiger," Hu Zi said with a sigh. Although the ring had many, many miraculous and powerful items, the ring was not omnipotent.

"Do I need to be the person who will refine the medicine or can it be someone else?" Zemin Yan also asked if he felt helpless. It could take many years for him to become a decent alchemist!

The truth is that Zemin Yan wanted to have several professions, but he knew that for the short term this was not feasible. Now he will focus on the cultivation of swords and in the background on alchemy, however, as the cultivation of the sword is a priority for him, alchemy would grow slowly.

  He also could not focus too much on alchemy initially, as he is in a sect focused on sword cultivation, and in the early years, he would be closely supervised by the sect's superiors.

"Not necessarily. For example, there are natural alchemists, who would be more efficient and faster to make the pill. These types of alchemists don't have to be high-level, as their lineage strengthens the cultivation of pills and remedies," Hu Zi said a little thought because he knew it was unrealistic for his young master to jump from a beginner alchemist to a professional alchemist in a short period.

"Forget it! Finding a natural alchemist outside the Alchemist's Sect seems even harder than me becoming a strong alchemist in a short time. I can only resign and wait," Zemin Yan said a little sad. It was too bad to have hopes only for unbroken by a gentle breeze.

"What is the young master talking about? Isn't the disciple who guided your group a half-breed who has the lineage of plant men? Who would be a better qualified natural alchemist than this young man?" Hu Zi asked incredulously at the fate of his young master and once again worried about the intelligence of this young master. How could he not see this walking treasure right before his eyes?

Hey, I can't feel the lineage of people just looking, okay?

I'm just a normal kid!

Zemin Yan grumbled this in his heart, but he decided not to quarrel with the soul of the copper ring because he was quite happy to find such a beautiful treasure.

Jong Kun felt a strong look on his body and he looked back, his heartfelt restless because of the things Hong Yu had done to him and the blackmail he still did, so he was very sensitive to the glances towards him.

However, he only saw the young boy with the common face, but with honey-colored eyes, which showed softness and even a little dependence on looking at himself?

Jong Kun only thought lightly, that Zemin Yan, being young, was too hard-pressed with all these treasures and was looking for someone with slightly higher status to feel safe. It was not uncommon for the new disciples to cling to the veterans when they were crushed by so many precious treasures.
