Meng Yuanjie: “…”
No, actually he had no intention of resisting. This was every warrior's instinctive reaction when facing an attack.
Just as he was hesitating whether to explain, he felt a force coming from the palm of his hand. His whole body shook involuntarily and he let go of the bamboo stick.
Immediately, the other party whipped him down with a whip. Meng Yuanjie felt a burning pain and couldn't help feeling annoyed.
Ever since he advanced to the Tongxuan realm and became the head of the Medical Valley, no one dared to offend him for a long time, but now, he was beaten.
Meng Yuanjie's face darkened slightly.
Seeing another whip coming, he felt that he could not just sit there and wait for death, and was about to fight back, but unexpectedly -
Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of oppression, and his whole body could no longer move. He watched helplessly as he was whipped twice more.
Meng Yuanjie felt as if half of his body was numb.
He was furious and stood up suddenly. Only then did he realize that the oppressive feeling he had just felt had disappeared and he had regained control of his body.
The teacher glared at him: "Did I ask you to stand up?"
Meng Yuanjie: “…”
He sat back down immediately.
Forget it. Only those who know the times and when to advance and retreat can be the best. Whoever is stronger has the final say.
The teacher's cane retracted, returning to its normal length. "These three strokes are a small lesson. Please remember this lesson. As a student, you should listen carefully in class. There will be no good results if you resist the teacher. Do you understand?"
Meng Yuanjie sat there in silence.
The teacher's eyes sharpened: "The teacher is asking you a question."
"I understand." Meng Yuanjie had to speak up. There was no one else around, so it didn't matter if he was embarrassed.
"That's more like it. It's your honor to be my student. Do you understand?"
Meng Yuanjie was silent for a moment. "...I understand. I wonder who you are, teacher? Could you please tell me your name?"
"I am Chaos Immortal Lord Lin Ao."
Meng Yuanjie was stunned.
Chaos Immortal Lord Lin Ao? Isn't this the protagonist of the novel "Cultivating Immortals"? Is Lin Ao actually a real person?
Meng Yuanjie recalled the plot in the book and thought of Lin Ao's cruel methods of dealing with the enemies, and couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.
In the book, although Lin Ao acts patiently and low-key, he is also cold-blooded and ruthless when someone provokes him, and all enemies will be killed.
I didn't expect the owner to let this killer be the teacher? Is this appropriate?
However, facing such a teacher, students naturally dare not disobey even if what he teaches is boring.
At least Meng Yuanjie no longer dared to be distracted.
Lin Ao quickly finished explaining the basics. He conjured up some medicinal herbs and introduced them. Based on this, he then taught a recipe for a Qi-refining pill. "Now that I've covered everything, it's time for you to formally learn alchemy. Alchemy isn't just a theory. To master it, you must practice repeatedly. The slightest mistake will lead to failure. Only through repeated trial and error can you master the key. To become a successful alchemist, you need vast resources."
"However, you don't need to worry about this problem in my class. These are ten portions of medicinal materials for Qi Refining Pills. You will have ten chances to try. If you fail in all of them, hehe, don't blame me for being ruthless." He waved his hand, and conjured up ten portions of medicinal materials and a pill furnace, and gently pushed them in front of Meng Yuanjie.
Meng Yuanjie: “…”
He looked stern, glanced at Lin Ao, and then cheered up to start refining the elixir.
Failure, failure, and failure...
Compared to making medicinal decoctions, refining pills is far too difficult.
It is indeed as Lin Ao said, the change of fire intensity, the extraction of medicinal liquid, the fusion of medicinal liquid, the collection of pills... any slight mistake during the process will lead to the failure of alchemy.
Lin Ao walked down from the podium and stood beside him, closely watching his actions and scolding him from time to time:
"Wrong. The timing of the fusion of the medicine is wrong. You are too slow. Try again."
"Are you really listening?"
"Is your brain full of straw? Is this how the elixir is made?"
Meng Yuanjie: “…”
He experienced the feeling of being constantly denied for the first time in a long time.
Uncomfortable.
But unable to resist.
The more anxious you are, the more mistakes you make.
In the end, all failed.
Looking at another furnace of wasted pills, Meng Yuanjie felt a darkness before his eyes.
Lin Ao said coldly, "Fail ten times, and I'll punish you with ten lashes. Do you accept that?"
"... admit it." Compared to Lin Ao's methods of dealing with his enemies, punishing him with only ten lashes was considered very gentle.
"Very good, you are a teachable boy. I will record the punishment for now and you should continue to practice until you succeed. Remember, every time you fail, I will punish you with a whip." Lin Ao waved his hand and produced ten more medicinal herbs.
Meng Yuanjie had no choice but to continue refining the elixir, and the pain in his heart was beyond words.
As the head of the Medical Valley, he actually studied medicine, but eventually gave up because of the difficulty.
At that time, no one forced him to study medicine. There were many people studying medicine in the valley, and it didn't matter whether there was one more or one less person.
But now, as the master of a valley, he no longer has the right to choose.
In order to maintain the Medical Valley's advantage, someone in the valley must master the art of alchemy, and he cannot retreat.
Before he knew it, more than thirty minutes had passed in the outside world, while in the virtual space, Meng Yuanjie had been struggling for more than fifty hours.
Hard work pays off. After enduring for such a long time, he finally succeeded in refining a furnace of Qi-refining pills, but by this time he had no idea how many times he had failed.
Meng Yuanjie happily collected the pills. Looking at the five round pills, he felt a mixture of emotions.
At this moment, Lin Ao's cold and ruthless voice suddenly rang out: "You have failed a total of 201 times."
Meng Yuanjie's joy suddenly disappeared.
He would be punished with a whip every time he failed. Thinking of the upcoming punishment, his mentality suddenly collapsed.
Is it too late to escape now? Please let him out!
Meanwhile, in the Xianyuan Hotel, Feng Yuanning received a notification that his mission was complete: "Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The hotel building: Earth Fire Alchemy Room has now been unlocked. Please complete the setup as soon as possible. You have triggered a new mission, please check it yourself."
Feng Yuanning was overjoyed. He opened the system interface and found that the new task was: 3 guests became beginner refiners (0/3) and unlocked the Earth Fire Refining Room.
Compared to the previous task, the number of required people has increased, but it is reasonable. After all, the number of cultivators has increased significantly after the world was upgraded.
Feng Yuanning entered the hotel management interface and set up the underground fire alchemy room on the underground floor.
With this Earth Fire Alchemy Room, she could finally make elixirs in reality. She immediately issued a bounty for collecting elixirs. Now everything was ready, only the east wind was missing.
…
X Village, X District, Ba Phong Province.
It was the harvest season, and in the rice fields along the river, golden waves undulated in the wind.
The villagers got up early and started working. They chatted while working and marveled at the unusual phenomena that occurred.
"It's strange. Not only are the flowers and plants growing wildly, but when I woke up this morning, my legs and waist didn't hurt anymore."
"Me too, my long-standing cold legs have suddenly healed."
However, although the villagers are puzzled, it is the busy farming season and they really have no time to explore. They just have to live their lives as usual.
Suddenly, there was a sound of splashing water, and a huge python crawled out of the river. It looked to be about ten feet long, with a body as thick as a bucket, and a pair of eyes bigger than copper bells.
A villager who was wiping his sweat accidentally saw it and was shocked: "Snake! What a big snake! Run!"
The other villagers were equally terrified when they saw this. Could this giant python be a spirit?!
They dropped the farm tools in their hands and turned around to run for their lives.
The python sped up its crawling speed, chasing after the villagers, hissing its tongue.
Only a moment later, it caught up with one of them, wrapped its tail around him and strangled him to death, then opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the man in one gulp.
The villagers were even more terrified and screamed, blaming themselves for running too slowly.
Only the victim's family was so grief-stricken that they stopped for a moment: "Fang'er!"
The python was busy swallowing the person into its stomach and had already stopped chasing. Seeing this, it stared at them with its cold vertical pupils.
"Run!" The victim's family members were horrified and finally ignored their grief. They pulled each other and turned around and ran.
But it was too late after all, and the python caught up again.
Just as it was about to entangle another person, suddenly, a figure fell from the sky, chopped off the python's head with a sword, and then shattered the snake's head into powder.
The figure landed and stood still. It was a girl holding a long sword. She was as beautiful as a peach or plum, but she had a stern and sharp look on her face. It was Luo Xiaofeng, the master of Jianshan Mountain.
After being included in Feng Yuanning's training program, Luo Xiaofeng happened to have the talent for cultivating immortals, and she has now become an immortal cultivator.
In order to save as many people as possible, she not only sent out many Jianshan disciples, but also patrolled the area herself so that she could be there to provide timely assistance at any time.
Unfortunately, she was still a step too late and someone had already fallen into the snake's belly.
Luo Xiaofeng cut open the snake's body with a sword, but found that the man was already dead. He shook his head with regret.
The victim's family rushed over in grief:
"Fang'er, my daughter..."
"Sister, sister, wake up..."
"Fang'er..."
"Don't be sad, she can still be saved." Luo Xiaofeng released his spiritual sense and checked the surrounding situation. He found that there was nothing serious for the time being, so he immediately decided to personally send Fang'er to Xianyuan Hotel for resurrection.
The victim's family was stunned and hurried to check Fang'er's condition, only to find that she was indeed dead.
They couldn't help but feel grief again: "Benefactor, why did you lie to us? She didn't even have a breath, how could she possibly be alive?"
Luo Xiaofeng found it difficult to explain, so she had to reveal her identity: "I am the master of Jianshan Mountain. How could I lie to you?"
"I know you have good intentions, but the dead cannot be resurrected. You don't need to comfort us anymore."
Luo Xiaofeng: “…”
Only facts could prove everything. She walked forward, picked up Fang'er's body, and said, "Wait a moment, I'll take her away and be back soon."
"Lord Luo, wait..."
The victim's family members tried to stop them, but saw Luo Xiaofeng and Fang'er flying on swords and flying directly into the sky.
They couldn't help but look at each other: "!!!"
How could a person actually fly so high? The Master of Jianshan actually possessed such a skill? How had I never heard of it before?
Could it be that Fang'er could really be saved? Their hearts were filled with a sense of apprehensive anticipation.
At this time, the villagers who were fleeing found that the danger was over and ran back here. When they saw this scene, they were all stunned.
First, the flowers, plants and trees suddenly grew wildly overnight, then a huge python was seen crawling out of the river, and then the master of Jianshan Mountain, a living person, actually flew so high.
What is going on?
Although they are just ordinary people, they often hear rumors about the underworld.
This kind of thing has never happened before.
Everything seems to be different from before.
The villagers waited anxiously, looking up in the direction where Luo Xiaofeng left.
After a while, suddenly a ray of light came flying like a meteor, exactly the same scene as when Luo Xiaofeng left just now.
The villagers looked at each other nervously, and the victim's family became more and more nervous, staring at the light intently.
They watched as the light slowed down, revealing the figures of Luo Xiaofeng and Fang'er, who then fell from the sky.
Fang'er...actually came back to life!
The victim's family was extremely suspicious and didn't dare to approach the resurrected Fang'er: "Master Luo, what... is going on? She was clearly dead just now!"
Luo Xiaofeng wanted to leave immediately, but seeing this, she had to patiently explain, "This is a magical technique. Does the Xianyuan Hotel know about it? If someone dies unexpectedly again in the future, as long as they are sent to the Xianyuan Hotel within a day, the immortals in the hotel will resurrect them."
"So it's the Xianyuan Hotel? I heard about it by chance before. It turns out this is not a legend. The Xianyuan Hotel really exists?" A villager said in surprise.
Luo Xiaofeng nodded, told them the location of the teleportation array, and then flew away again on his sword.
The villagers were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Tell me quickly, what's going on with the Xianyuan Hotel?"
"Fang'er, you really saw a fairy. Did the fairy resurrect you?"
