Chapter 306 Half-Demon Fox's Black Moonlight Monk 07
Shen Xinran thought that since it was not feasible to find a doctor to treat the male protagonist, she might as well save costs and teach herself.
So, when all the outer disciples went to the sword class, she went to where Yao Xiu was taking classes.
The Tianjian Sect has always been ranked second. In order to catch up with the Lingxia Sect, it spared no expense to recruit four elders from the Lingxiao Sect, who are proficient in pharmacy, medicine, alchemy and refining.
This move undoubtedly deepened the feud between the two sects.
However, the Tianjian Sect was renowned for its swordsmanship, and most of its disciples preferred to cultivate swordsmanship. This resulted in only three students in the classroom, including Shen Xinran, presumably just there to earn credits.
Shen Xinran is now an outer disciple, so the one who teaches her is naturally not an elder, but a disciple under the name of an elder.
Inner disciples also need to earn sect points, so they will choose to teach outer disciples to earn points.
The teacher in class today was a senior student, whose name seemed to be Yuan Feiping. He looked to be in his twenties. When he walked into the classroom, he was a little surprised to see an extra person in the room.
But he was only stunned for a moment and quickly started teaching:
"We talked about alchemy in our last class, so let's start with that this time. Controlling the heat during alchemy is crucial, and the heat needs to be adjusted according to the recipe and the stage of alchemy.
We followed the recipe's instructions and placed the processed raw materials into the furnace in order. Precise temperature control and spiritual guidance were required to refine and fuse the various ingredients within the furnace.
They also need to use their own spiritual power to finely control every detail of the alchemy process, including temperature, pressure and the reaction of materials.
In the final stage of alchemy, the essence of the refined and fused materials needs to be condensed into Dan Qi..."
Yuan Feiping was the direct disciple of Elder Yao Xiu. He taught the outer disciples everything his teacher taught him, word for word.
In the past, his classes were mostly taught by outsiders who came to earn credits, and no one would listen seriously, so he always taught casually. But today was different, because there was a disciple who kept staring at him.
This made Yuan Feiping even more nervous. He didn't know what to do with his hands and feet. He talked more and more, and in the end he didn't even know what he was saying.
After finally waiting for the get out of class to end, Yuan Feiping picked up his notebook and prepared to leave quickly.
Only a female voice was heard: "Brother, please wait a moment."
Yuan Feiping could only turn around and watch the new disciple jogging towards him.
"Brother, I just heard you say that controlling the temperature during alchemy is very important. So how do we control the temperature?"
Yuan Feiping took two steps back until he was one meter away from Shen Xinran before he began to speak: "Fire spiritual root cultivators can use their spiritual power to sense the temperature changes in the alchemy furnace and adjust the temperature based on the spiritual power feedback to ensure the temperature is even and accurate."
Shen Xinran nodded. She wasn't a cultivator with fire spiritual roots, but she had them, so it should be possible. She looked at Yuan Feiping and continued, "Brother, can you demonstrate how to control fire?"
In order to see more clearly, Shen Xinran took a step forward.
But Yuan Feiping instinctively stepped back, "You...just stand there, I'm afraid of hurting you."
After he finished speaking, he extended his hand, and a flame slowly rose in his palm. Under his control, the flame danced docilely in his palm like a tamed pet.
Shen Xinran felt a subtle fluctuation in the air, and she actually saw several red spots rushing towards Yuan Feiping. Could this be the fire element?
Some of them remained in Yuan Feiping's body, but more of them passed through his body and disappeared into the air.
Shen Xinran quietly reached out his hand and poked one of the red spots, only to feel a tingling sensation at his fingertips.
After Yuan Feiping finished his demonstration, Shen Xinran smiled at him and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
Yuan Feiping nodded and left quickly. She left so quickly that Shen Xinran's eyes widened. Was she some kind of man-eating beast?
At night, after Shen Xinran returned to his room, he began to sense spiritual power according to Yuan Feiping's instructions.
She sat cross-legged on the futon, eyes closed, her mind cleared, her mind taking in everything around her. In the darkness, she seemed to open another pair of eyes.
She saw countless tiny points of light, colorful like stars in the night sky, converging towards her.
It seems that these are spiritual powers. Shen Xinran was happy for a short while, and then concentrated on capturing these elements.
The most important element needed for alchemy is fire, so Shen Xinran focused on capturing the red fire element.
Shen Xinran didn't notice that in the dim corner of the room, Hu Changfeng slowly opened his eyes.
As a half-demon, he shouldn't be affected by the spiritual power of a cultivator. However, the spiritual power emanating from Shen Xinran unusually calmed the demon pill and magic core in his body.
Hu Changfeng couldn't help but stretch out his claws and gently absorb the spiritual power that Shen Xinran had purified. This caused Shen Xinran to capture the spiritual power while her spiritual power disappeared silently.
An hour later, Shen Xinran opened her eyes. She had just absorbed so much fire elements, so she should be able to release flames now!
Shen Xinran stretched out her hand, and a faint flame appeared in her palm, but it disappeared in an instant and dissipated into the air.
It's like a dud, leaving people speechless.
Shen Xinran blinked. Could it be that she guessed wrong? Those red spots were not fire elements?
At this moment, the instigator felt a little guilty for some reason. The spiritual power just now was too comfortable, so he unconsciously absorbed some more. She shouldn't have noticed!
But it doesn't matter even if you find out, you owe me this.
Hu Changfeng turned around and faced Shen Xinran.
I was originally planning to kill you once he recovered, but now it seems you're still somewhat useful, so I'll keep you for a few more days!
The next day after class, Shen Xinran stopped Yuan Feiping again. "Brother, I still have some questions for you."
Yuan Feiping watched Shen Xinran getting closer and closer to him, and directly reached out to stop him, "Just stand there and talk, I can hear you."
Shen Xinran nodded, stopped one meter away from Yuan Feiping, and said with a faint smile: "I would like to ask, Senior Brother, are the colorful light spots floating in the air a manifestation of spiritual power?"
Yuan Feiping frowned and asked, "What colorful light spots? As far as I know, spiritual power is usually colorless and invisible."
Shen Xinran was stunned for a moment. It seemed that she was the only one who could see those colorful spots of light. She didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
She said casually, "I heard a senior sister mention that when she absorbed spiritual energy, she could see many colorful spots of light."
Yuan Feiping nodded slightly, recalling the past as he spoke, "Master once said that cultivators in the Spiritual Transformation stage can project their spiritual consciousness. Some cultivators with advanced cultivation can even open their spiritual pupils, seeing through everything and understanding illusions. Your senior sister must have either reached the Spiritual Transformation stage or was born with a powerful spiritual consciousness."
After hearing the word "spiritual consciousness", Shen Xinran had a guess in her mind. She had experienced so many small worlds, and her spiritual consciousness was likely different from that of ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Brother, do you have any recipes for treating external injuries? I want to try it."
Pill recipes are usually secrets passed down by medicine practitioners, and Shen Xinran is still worried that Yuan Feiping will not give them to her.
But Yuan Feiping just widened his eyes in surprise, "You're planning to make pills right after you get started?"
After he finished speaking, he realized that he had lost his composure and immediately added: "Yes, I'll write it to you!"
Yuan Feiping took out a pen and paper, wrote down the recipe, threw it to Shen Xinran, and left quickly. It was so difficult to talk to people.
