Suddenly, her hand touched something hard in his arms. She took it out and saw that it was a package containing some bottles and jars.

Wu Di did not have a spatial storage bag. Spatial magic artifacts were quite rare in this world, and even though Wu Di was a sixth-rank cultivator, he was not qualified to obtain one.

Upon opening the package, they discovered that the hard objects were actually medicine bottles, but they were clearly of ordinary quality. Having become accustomed to the miraculous medicines of Doctor Ji, they didn't even bother with these.

Zuan continued to search his body, whistling as he muttered to himself, "Brother, you don't want to be left to rot in the wilderness, do you? Take out all the silver notes you have. If you have a few hundred, I can even let you be neighbors with two grandmasters. What a great opportunity! Once you're underground, you can ask those two big shots for advice on your cultivation questions."

"Huh? Where are they? Even just one would be good. A silver note is a bargain, but damn it, not a single silver note? You poor bastard!"

"Huh, what's this?"

Zuan looked indignant, but in the end he still found the two books that were wrapped up tightly.

One of the booklets had three large characters written on it: "Flame Blade".

What the heck? What's your relationship with Kumārajīva?

It has to be said that although Wu Di is not a very good person, his martial arts skills are quite cool. If I could cultivate to the point where I could wield the Flaming Blade with my bare hands, that would be even more impressive.

In this world, martial arts skills aren't important; what matters is looking cool!

He hurriedly flipped through the book and his heart sank. It turned out that to cultivate this combat skill, one had to be an awakened fire elementalist.

Zaun had no fire abilities, so he had no choice but to give up.

Suddenly he noticed that the manual mentioned that this was a growth-oriented technique, and the power of the moves was directly related to the user's fire ability. The stronger and rarer your fire ability, the more powerful the same move would be.

Zu An thought to himself, no wonder Wu Di, that unlucky guy, always lost. It was mainly because his flames were just ordinary flames. If Pei Mianman used her special black flames to unleash this battle technique, the power would be many times greater.

"Alright, I'll keep it. Even if I can't use it myself in the future, I can give it to Da Manman." Zuan put the Flame Blade manual into the Glazed Pearl.

He then looked at the second book, which had four simple and ancient characters written on it: “Juyuan Ancient Scrolls”.

"Huh?"

Zuan opened the book and found that it was about how to refine elixirs.

Unfortunately, this book is incomplete, with a large portion of the content missing.

However, the preceding content covered the basics of alchemy and how to refine a elixir called the Gathering Yuan Pill, which can enhance a cultivator's vital energy and accelerate their cultivation.

Remembering that Mi Li had just mentioned to him that in order to speed up his cultivation, he needed to find rare and precious treasures and various elixirs to consume, he didn't expect that he would find something so quickly!

Earning Qi Fruits solely through anger points is indeed too slow. If these Qi Gathering Pills could improve my cultivation, wouldn't I be able to take off like a rocket with both methods combined?

However, the further Zuan flipped through the scroll, the colder his heart became, because the entry requirement for mastering this ancient scroll was still being a fire element awakener, and the rarer the flame, the better the quality of the Gathering Yuan Pill and the greater its help to the cultivator.

Previously, he felt it didn't matter whether he practiced the Flame Blade or not, but now, with the addition of the Ancient Scroll of Gathering Essence, he realized that he had to find a way to awaken his fire-type abilities.

He needs a huge number of pills to level up his cultivation, so he can't rely on others and has to do it himself.

However, fire elemental abilities are not something that can be awakened at will.

You should know that even though he reached the fifth rank, he hadn't awakened a single elemental ability.
