The residence of the god Aoki.
Ruoruo the cat curled up weakly in Aoki no Kami's arms.
Mo Jinyan chirped anxiously beside him.
With a serious expression, Aoki continued to feed her various gentle, top-grade pills.
"How can you need so much spiritual power to have two tails?" God Aoki frowned in confusion, having never seen such a strange nine-tailed cat before.
It can transform pills into pure spiritual energy for absorption, and each growth requires an extremely large number of pills.
"Ruoruo doesn't know either. She didn't use any pills to grow her tail last time." The little kitten meowed listlessly. "Ruoruo's sword has been drawing spiritual energy."
"It's just a broken wooden sword..." Aoki said, but he was hesitant in his heart.
Because at this moment, the broken wooden sword he was talking about was hanging in mid-air, absorbing all the continuous lightning tribulations from above.
No lightning bolt could strike the pills or Ruoruo below through the wooden sword.
And every now and then, Ruoruo the cat would meow, and a few sparks of lightning could be seen flickering on its body.
It was clear that although they did not suffer the tribulation of lightning, they were being tempered by the power of lightning.
That sword blocked all the harm, but left behind all the benefits.
"It's so intelligent it's like it has a life of its own..." An unbelievable thought popped into Aoki's mind.
What is a living being? Whether it's a sword cultivator or a saber cultivator, all cultivators who focus on the path of weapons will have a weapon spirit born within their weapon once they reach the point of unity between man and weapon.
Most artifact spirits have the mind of a child only a few years old. They gradually grow under the tempering of constant lightning tribulations. Artifact spirits that have experienced the lightning tribulation of ascending to godhood may even reach the point of being able to speak.
The legendary spirits of divine artifacts can even take human form.
Ruoruo, this broken wooden sword doesn't seem as ordinary as it appears.
After all, it withstood such a powerful lightning tribulation without even a crack.
As the final bolt of lightning struck, the wooden sword floated back into Ruoruo's hand.
As soon as Ruoruo grasped the sword hilt, all the spiritual energy in her body was drained, and a tender sprout trembled and emerged from the hilt.
"You absorbed all my spiritual power, and only a single sprout grew?" Ruoruo Cat couldn't help but reach out and scratch the sword hard.
The sword lay quietly in her palm, motionless. Ruoruo had no choice but to put the immortal sword back into her storage space.
Ruoruo the cat jumped back to the ground, burrowed into her clothes, and transformed back into human form, her round eyes sparkling: "Master, quickly look at my pills."
Aoki was still engrossed in speculating about the origins of that suspicious, broken wooden sword.
Only after Ruoruo urged him did he go to look at the alchemy furnace.
Inside the furnace, thirteen crystal-clear, top-grade pills lay quietly at the bottom.
Aoki's hands trembled slightly as he stared in disbelief at the bottom of the stove.
Everyone knows that the maximum number of pills in a batch is twelve, so how could there be thirteen?
"Wow! So many pills!" Ruoruo exclaimed excitedly. "Master, Master, I just ate so many pills, so how about I give you this box of pills?"
Aoki took a deep breath and packed the pills into a box with an array drawn on it: "I don't need your little bit of stuff. You said you'd take it and eat it for fun. I've only made one batch. I'll make another batch!"
As always, serious and earnest Aoki didn't realize that his voice was trembling slightly.
Although Ruoruo felt a little strange, she didn't think much of it and obediently nodded.
After she grew her fifth tail, her strength increased slightly, and through these few alchemy sessions she gained a deeper understanding of fire control. Therefore, this alchemy session went very smoothly without any problems.
Her alchemy incantation was also very fluent. Qingmu watched her perform the incantation attentively and protected her.
This time, nothing unusual happened. After a quarter of an hour, the pills in the furnace were successfully refined.
Still thirteen pills
Aoki took a deep breath, and the time for refining the pills was halved, but the number of pills increased by one.
This new alchemy technique is incredibly powerful.
"Yan Ruoruo, I didn't teach you this new alchemy technique. How did you come up with it?"
Ruoruo blinked blankly: "But the spiritual herbs didn't seem to like the way those pill formulas were combined before. They were a little resistant to it, so I just went along with the direction they didn't resist."
Because she was unfamiliar with it, she had to experiment several times before she finally managed to create a pill formula that made these spiritual herbs less resistant to herbalism.
Aoki nodded slightly. The so-called feeling of rejection was actually the inclusiveness of the alchemy formula, which is why there are eighty-one alchemy formulas.
To give a simple example, you can't use a water-attribute alchemy technique to refine fire-attribute medicine, can you?
The medicinal properties of the elixir can be completely lost in an instant.
However, it sounds simple, but it is actually much more difficult to do.
Even Qingmu, the number one alchemist in the Six Realms, could not sense such a keen reaction from the spiritual medicine.
“Your talent far surpasses that of me back then.” Aoki’s expression softened considerably. “Perhaps I can’t teach you much, so you’ll have to teach me.”
Ruoruo smiled, her eyes crinkling: "That's only right. Teacher Xinyi said that students should surpass their teachers in order to live up to their teachings."
If a disciple cannot surpass his teacher, then what is the point of passing on the tradition?
Aoki laughed loudly three times: "Good, good, good, as expected of my disciple. I was the one who was confused."
After successfully refining the Spirit Fusion Pill, Ruoruo, under Qingmu's guidance, began refining other pills.
Ruoruo didn't say goodbye to Qingmu until after lunch.
