After parting with Hua Lao, Shi Yan felt a lot, although he didn't learn any advanced fighting techniques and fighting skills, but he had a new understanding of how to practice, and the two of them felt a lot more fulfilled in their hearts.

"Senior brother, Grandpa Hua said that there is a specialization in the art industry, you said that after my Lei Tong Fist is practiced to the extreme, can I beat your Ghost Fist" Arus asked.

"Maybe," Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Hehe, you don't bluff me, it's a pity that Grandpa Hua can only stay for three days, alas, he's gone, we're going to wander the world again, and I don't know when we'll see each other again" Arus smiled.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yan has the order of the Eight Clans Chamber of Commerce, and our formation is in the hands of the Eight Clans Chamber of Commerce," Zhu Jing said.

"It turns out that the Order of the Eight Clans Chamber of Commerce is still so useful?" Shi Yan asked.

"This token, in addition to the help of the strong people of the Chamber of Commerce, is also a positioning stone itself, and the elders of the Eight Clans can find the exact location of the holder through the location of the stone," Zhu Jing said.

"I see," Shi Yan nodded.

At night, Shi Yan and Arus found a quiet place to practice. In the meditation world, constantly urging the Dou Qi to swim in the meridians, watching the Dou Qi become more and more pure recently, Shi Yan vaguely felt that he was about to be promoted.

After practicing the Ghost Fist, Shi Yan opened the "Heavenly God Protector", Shi Yan has always been curious, how to protect the body in this secret book, after reading it, he immediately understood. The original body protection referred to in the secret book is by applying soul marks in the meridians, these marks can guide the direction of Dou Qi and True Qi, so that cultivators will not mess up the pulse path due to external influences when practicing various attributes, adding a layer of protection for Shi Yan's future dual cultivation of fighting methods.

It was dawn, and Arus had long since withdrawn from meditation, and after a short rest, he took Pucci for a walk in the forest, with Pucci around, and all kinds of exotic plants around him could not escape his eyes.

"Pucci, what are these herbs good for? I don't know a lot of them," Arus said.

"Puff~" Pucci said, tossing a pill of herb into his mouth and chewing it.

"Is it delicious?" Arus asked.

Pucci chewed and nodded, and Arus followed Pucci's example and put the herb in his mouth to chew, but the more he chewed, the more bitter it became, and the bitter Arus's whole face was distorted.

After 'Bah, Bah, Bah, Amous's mouth was full of bitterness, and he kept rinsing his mouth with water, and Le Pucci was shouting 'Puff~Puff' on the side.

"I'm rubbing, it's so unpalatable, isn't it, Pucci, how did you eat it?" asked Arus.

"Spit and spit and spit out~" Pucci spit out all the herbs in his mouth.

"Stinky Mountain Spirit, you dare to lie to me," Arus said, looking at Pucci.

"Puff~" Pucci was happy, and he ran away.

Arus chased Pucci all the way, but Pucci ran to Shi Yan's side and got into the ring. Seeing that Shi Yan was still practicing, Arus didn't dare to disturb. I could only hold my breath and wait for Shi Yan to finish his cultivation. Shi Yan in meditation is trying to apply a soul mark in the veins of the Ghost Fist. What made Shi Yan very distressed was how to set up effective imprints reasonably, the strength of all soul imprints in the veins must be uniform, too strong and too weak would lead to failure of guidance.

"I'm dizzy, what are you doing, senior brother? Why haven't you quit for so long? Arus wondered.

At noon, Shi Yan withdrew from meditation, looking at the sun above his head, Shi Yan finally succeeded in letting the fighting qi in the cyclone smoothly swim in the meridians through the power of the imprint, and it was done, the fighting qi in the stone rock cyclone had been exhausted, and the blood seal began to shine faintly, but Shi Yan was tired as soon as he exited the meditation realm because of excessive wear and tear, and fell asleep.

Not long after Shi Yan lay down, the surrounding air began to fluctuate slightly, and the fighting qi in Shi Yan's body continued to pull the qi of heaven and earth to replenish it, Shi Yan opened his eyes suddenly, quickly removed the clothes on his body, and let the qi of heaven and earth be poured directly into his body unimpeded, and the comer did not refuse, Shi Yan felt that his cyclone was quickly filled, and his body was full of strength all of a sudden.

"Ah~~" Shi Yan shouted.

After emitting a powerful fighting aura from the surface of his body, the air around him shook violently and began to slowly quiet down.

"7 paragraphs," Zhu Jing said through the ring.

"Yes," Shi Yan said, feeling the fighting spirit in his body.

"Take a good rest, I saw that you have been practicing last night, and you are tired," Zhu Jing said.

"Okay, Aunt Jing," Shi Yan said, falling to the side and falling asleep.

Unexpectedly, this sleep lasted until dark, and when Shi Yan opened his eyes again, he saw Arus sitting on the side and practicing, and put some herbs on the ground, but unfortunately, these herbs were not known to either of them, and they were all retrieved by Puqi to facilitate Shi Yan's refining of medicine in the future.

"Alchemy? Pharmacists? It's a pity that the teacher only teaches for 3 days, so it would be nice to learn from him," Shi Yan said.

"It's okay Xiaoyan, Hua Lao left some formulas for the elixir before leaving, I just looked at the map, the next stop should be 'Guling Town', when we get to 'Guling Town', you go and buy some necessary tools, I can guide you" Zhu Jing said.

"Aunt Jing also knows how to refine medicine?" Shi Yan said curiously.

"Actually, I don't understand, but I've seen my sister refining medicine, that is, your mother, she asked me to assist her in refining medicine more than once, using my wind attribute to control the heat in her Dan furnace, and I have learned some of it," Zhu Jing said.

"Okay, but what are you going to use?" Shi Yan asked.

"You have the Dan furnace, although it is a little old, the basic gold sore medicine can still be used, as for the materials, refining the gold sore medicine needs '3 plants of hemostatic grass, 1 small section of raw fragrant bamboo, a bottle of flower rain and dewdrops, and a little bitter roots', these are all basic things" Zhu Jing said.

"Oh my God, it turns out that refining gold sore medicine is so troublesome," Shi Yan said.

"This is the easiest, as far as your current cultivation is concerned, it is okay to practice gold sore medicine, in the future, you will practice high-grade elixir, Dan furnace is the first, refining materials, fire control, etc., if you want to practice high-grade elixir in the later stage, you have to get a ground fire if you don't get it right" Zhu Jing said.

"Earthfire? What is earth fire called? Shi Yan said curiously.

"The so-called earth fire, refers to the heavenly thunder and earth fire when crossing the tribulation realm, which is formed by the condensation of countless different fires between the continents, collectively known as the earth fire, it is said that when you reach the realm, the heavenly thunder is the verification of your cultivation results, and the earth fire is the permission of the purity of your soul. Heavenly thunder is good to say, the earth fire will be difficult to get through, in case your soul has too many impurities, domineering and spiritual power are not pure enough, the earth fire will burn out the impurities one by one. In order to improve their cultivation, many people rely on the means of evil demons and foreign ways to absorb the cultivation results of others, but after withstanding the heavenly thunder, they cannot escape the test of earth fire, and their burned souls are scattered," said Zhu Jing.

"I see, where to get the fire, let's catch one," Shi Yan said.

"Don't make trouble, that kind of thing is hard to find, many foundries and pharmacists on the mainland hope to get one, and few have succeeded so far, mainly because the 'Earth Fire' has spirituality, and it is too fierce, and if you are not careful, it will catch fire" Zhu Jing said.

"My former teacher was a Southern Immortal Ancient Beast, and I once saw it devour a Southern Immortal Separation Fire, and that blue flame was really beautiful," Shi Yan said.

"Ancient beasts of the Southern Underworld? You said you'd seen the Ancient Beast of the Southern Underworld? Zhu Jing was surprised.

"Yes, it is the ancient beast that once competed with the Heavenly Emperor, and my Ghost Fist is what it taught me," Shi Yan said.

“……”

"What's wrong, Aunt Jing," Shi Yan asked.

"You're not kidding me, are you?" Zhu Jing looked at Shi Yan incredulously.

"No, we've been together for a while, but unfortunately, it left me for some reason," Shi Yan said in frustration.

"Oh my God, if you weren't my nephew, I'd think you're bragging, and you're going to be too peculiar. The Southern Darkness Ancient Beast is a powerful ancient beast that dominated one side at the end of antiquity, and the Southern Darkness is now only a little bit visible in the various scrolls, let alone me, even if it is on the entire continent, there are only a handful of strong people who can see the Southern Darkness and Leaving the Fire, if I were not your aunt, I must have thought that you were talking about a dream" Zhu Jing said incredulously.

"It's not a dream, if I have a chance in the future, when I see the ancient beast teacher again, let it take out the Southern Soul Separation Fire to show you," Shi Yan said with a smile.

"You, you, you, I~ I don't even know what to say, hehehe, I'm really convinced, but I still can't completely believe that there is an ancient beast that actually guides you to practice, this is incredible" Zhu Jing smiled.

"It's nothing, the ancient beast teacher urged us to go more and see more encounters, I was just curious at first, but now I know, walking more and seeing more encounters will indeed help me grow" Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, don't mention the matter of the fire, it's hard for me to digest what you said, alas~ Arus just swallowed the elixir given by Hua Lao, but I don't know why it hasn't moved" Zhu Jing said.

Shi Yan looked at Arus in front of him, closed his eyes and quietly breathed this, Shi Yan didn't feel any signs of promotion in the slightest. Recalling that every time he was promoted, he seemed to consume too much of the fighting qi in his body, and the demand for cyclones would increase before he would pull the qi of heaven and earth, but at this moment, the fighting qi in Arus's body was full, and if he didn't pour it out, even with the assistance of the pill, it would be difficult to be promoted.

"Aunt Jing? Is it necessary to pour out some of the fighting energy in Arus's body to help him be promoted? Shi Yan asked.

"How could you say that?" Zhu Jing said curiously.

"Because every time I was promoted, I was exhausted, and when the cyclone was thin, I attracted the qi of heaven and earth," Shi Yan said.

"When you say that, it may be true, because when I practiced with your mother before, I rarely got exhausted, so I didn't pay much attention to it every time I was promoted, and when Arus quits the meditation state, you can try" Zhu Jing said.

"Good~"

Shi Yan waited quietly, and as Shi Yan expected, until Arus withdrew from the meditation state, he still failed to be promoted. When Arus learned that Shi Yan was going to fight him, his head shook out. It wasn't until later that he heard that it was for promotion that Arus agreed in front of him.

"Thunder Punch"

Arus roared in the woods, and a fighting spirit instantly covered the whole body, with the guidance of Hua Lao, Arus's attack was not a single fist, a combination of fists and palms, both offensive and defensive. Every move and style was accompanied by a trace of white fighting energy, and when facing off against Shi Yan, the two fighting qi between the fists collided and rubbed and made a thunderous sound.

Shi Yan tested Arus's endurance with every attack, and the strength of each punch increased slightly, until the strength of the punch was just enough for Arus to bear, and Shi Yan let go of his fists and kicks to fight.

Zhujing and Puqi sat quietly on the side, watching Shi Yan and Arus go up and down, left and right in the forest, gong, defense, flash, and hit~ There were roars in the forest from time to time. After fighting for nearly an hour, Shi Yan watched Arus's fighting spirit become less and less, and a fierce afterimage was drawn out, and he punched Arus with a heavy fist. Seeing the afterimage coming, Arus had to condense the remaining fighting energy to fend off a punch.

After a "boom~", Arus shattered the afterimage, and he exhausted the last trace of fighting energy, panting and squatting down. Not long after Arus squatted, the air around him began to fluctuate slightly, and Arus quickly took off his clothes and sat cross-legged on the ground, breathing heavily. The qi of heaven and earth rushed towards Arus, and I saw a faint light emitting from the surface of Arus's body, and the faint thunder light made a slight sound, as if welcoming the arrival of the qi of heaven and earth.

Just as Arus continued to absorb the qi of heaven and earth, the cyclone in his body suddenly slowed down, and then the excess fighting qi began to disperse outside the body surface, one in and one out, and the two qi collided with each other, and slowly calmed down after a long time. A gentle breeze blew around, and everything was calm.

"5th Rank Fighter," Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Whew~"

Arus opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and slowly turned the fighting qi in his body, and sure enough, it was much stronger.

"It's so comfortable, thank you, brother," Arus smiled.

"You're welcome"

"It's a pity that you can help me expend my fighting energy to get promoted, but I can't help you," Arus said.

"It's okay, after internal cultivation, it is external practice, and when you practice fighting skills, you will also lose your fighting energy, and you can also get the opportunity to improve," Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Yes, you have the Ghost Fist," Arus laughed.

~~~~~

"Guling Town", Shi Yan and Arus came to the town's boulder and recited. Under the guidance of Zhujing, Shi Yan and Arus walked for nearly 1 month and finally came to Guling Town.

As soon as I entered the town, I found that Guling Town was a little different from the previous town, there were many mountains and few trees, and the whole town was surrounded by high mountains and stone ridges.

"Brother, this town is so weird," Arus said.

"yes, why are there all the weird rocks here? I didn't see much of a tree," Shi Yan said curiously.

"You two stupid, don't you think that the entire continent is a forest, this ancient mountain town is already the edge of the strange stone forest, and after a few days of walking west out of the town, you will officially leave the strange stone forest," said Zhu Jing.

"Out of the Strange Stone Forest, what is it?" Shi Yan asked.

"See for yourself then," said Zhu Jing.

"Aunt Jing, you're too stingy," Shi Yan said.

Entering the ancient town with Arus, the streets of the town are full of people, and since the town is a junction, caravans entering and leaving will pass through here. Shi Yan found a pharmacy, and according to what Zhu Jing said before, he began to buy some alchemy sores medicine materials' hemostatic grass, raw fragrant bamboo, flower rain and dewdrops, bitter lotus roots'.

"Oh, young man, you bought the herbs for refining gold sore medicine, could it be that there is a pharmacist at home?" The pharmacy owner looked at Shi Yan and smiled.

A pharmacist is an indispensable figure in all pharmacies, and if a pharmacist can have a pharmacist in a small shop, the business of that small shop will definitely be hot, and the cultivators and merchants who come and go will also patronize the small shop because of the presence of the pharmacist.

"This is what my senior brother wants to practice himself," Arus said.

"Are the two little brothers joking? Are you saying that this little brother wants to refine medicine? The pharmacy owner laughed.

The laughter attracted the surrounding guests to come over, a teenager wants to refine medicine, this thing is really strange, no wonder the pharmacy owner laughs.

"What's so funny, my senior brother is a 7th dan fighter," Arus said hurriedly.

"Oh?"

The pharmacy owner carefully looked at the two children in front of him, it was true that he was a cultivator, and he didn't dare to determine whether it was 7 dan. The people in the pharmacy also talked about it, and no one believed that the ten-year-old child in front of him could have such an achievement.

"Let's not talk about whether the little brother has reached the 7th order, I have been in this Guling Town for decades, what kind of strong person has never been seen, a child in his 10s dares to be a pharmacist, I still see it once" The pharmacy owner smiled.

"How do you know if you can't do it if you don't try," Shi Yan said.

"Okay, it's rare for this little brother to have such courage, so good, what I have here is that the little brother can purchase it, if he can really refine the gold sore medicine, the small shop will buy it at a high price, how much you refine, how much the small store will collect" The pharmacy owner smiled.

"Hehe, I just wanted to refine, but if the boss says so, then we're welcome," Arus said.

"Senior brother" Shi Yan lightly touched Arus.

"Come on, come on, talk about it, what you want to do business in a store is reputation, but don't fool me with the medicine you can buy from other places, this freshly baked pill is different from the pill obtained at wholesale price, others don't understand, I can smell it as soon as I smell it," said the owner of the pharmacy.

"I'm afraid you won't succeed, so I'll refine it," Arus said.

"There is an exception, so let's refine fresh gold medicine, no matter what the effect is, the small shop will collect a bottle of copper spar," the pharmacy owner shouted.

"It's a deal," Arus shouted.

Everyone looked at the boss one after another, and then at the two children, only to see the corner of the pharmacy owner's mouth raised, everyone understood that it was impossible for such a young child to refine the gold creation medicine, and the pharmacy owner dared to argue with Arus, just to sell more materials. Arus was just about to say something, but was pulled by Shi Yan, this Arus didn't have a door to talk about as soon as he went out, the form in front of him was very unfavorable to him, too much argument was meaningless, and refining medicine early was true.

~~~~~

Outside Guling Town, Shi Yan and Arus found a place where their credentials were hidden, and laid out the herbs one by one. Zhu Jing nodded, once these herbs were cultivated, they were enough to refine more than twenty bottles of gold sore medicine.

"Senior brother, you have to do your best, otherwise you will really make that boss look down on you," Arus said.

"Besides, who told you to buy so many materials, you said you would try it," Shi Yan said.

"What are you afraid of, as long as you refine it, the boss said buy 1 bottle of copper spar, then we won't send it," Arus said.

"What if I can't refine it?" Shi Yan asked.

"Don't scare me, I've spent all my savings, I didn't even think you can't," Arus said.

"You really think up to me," Shi Yan said.

"Xiao Yan" floated out of the ring and continued, "If you want to talk about high-grade pills, Aunt Jing is not sure, just talk about the golden medicine and military food pills, you can refine it."

"Okay, with Aunt Jing's words, I'll give it a try," Shi Yan said.

"It's not too early, let's start," Chai Jing urged.

Having said that, in fact, there is no bottom in Zhujing's heart, Shi Yan is only 11 years old after all, refining medicine has extremely high requirements for the output and control of fighting qi and true qi, if you really want to be so good at refining, not everyone is a pharmacist. On the continent, most of the fire attribute spirits are pharmacists, but only fire attribute pharmacists can generally only refine some low-level pills, if they can be accompanied by wood attributes, then they can be regarded as a superb pharmacist, through the perception and control of plants, they can greatly exert the spirituality of medicinal herbs!

To refine medicine, fighters need to use external fire to control the flames with fighting energy. Fighters use the qi of all things in heaven and earth as the foundation of their cultivation, and it is also the best fighter with the dual attributes of fire and wood, but the fighting qi refining medicine is too strong, and the quality and efficacy are not as good as those of the spirit. In addition, most of the elixirs are refined by the spirits, so if you want to talk about the status of the pharmacist, the spirits should be the head.

"Xiao Yan, if you want to refine medicine, you must first understand the Dan Furnace," Zhu Jing said.

"Dan Furnace? Is there something wrong? Shi Yan said curiously.

"Take the dilapidated Dan furnace in your ring, each of which has a 'medicine inlet' and a ' Out of the Dan mouth', although the Dan furnace in front of him is dilapidated, it is not difficult to see that this Dan furnace is from the hands of a senior pharmacist, according to Aunt Jing, this Dan furnace is designed to be extremely ingenious, not to mention that the design of this medicine mouth and Dan mouth is so reasonable, Aunt Jing found that the fighting qi and true qi are injected into the designated entrance Since they can be gathered in the Dan furnace, and the heat dissipation ports around the Dan furnace are even more ingeniously designed, Xiao Yan, if Aunt Jing is not mistaken, this Dan furnace is very likely to be owned by a great pharmacist" Zhu Jing said.

"The Dan furnace that can be valued by the best pharmacist, isn't that very powerful? Really? Arus was surprised.

"Auntie, since the Dan furnace is so powerful, how can it be broken like this," Shi Yan said curiously.

"If Aunt Jing didn't guess wrong, it is very likely that the elixir came out, violating the laws of heaven and earth, attracting the wrath of the heavens, and making the sky thunder split," Zhu Jing said.

"Thunderbolt?" Shi Yan was surprised.

"Senior brother, isn't this the same thing at the auction~~" Arus said.

"Okay, okay," Shi Yan waved his hand and said, "Don't mention the courage of the year, let's still refine medicine."

Under the guidance of Zhujing, Shi Yan cut the large pieces of medicinal herbs into small pieces, which was more convenient to put in. With his right hand, he summoned a small flame and threw it into the furnace, and at the same time, he quietly told Arus and Pucci not to make a sound, and they all watched as Shi Yan threw the herbs into the furnace little by little. Slowly urge the true qi to adjust the size of the flame, as the flame gets bigger and bigger, the Dan furnace in front of him emits a lot of faint light, but it is a pity that the Dan furnace has cracks, and the fire light shines out of the cracks.

"Aunt Jing, how can this stove shine?" Shi Yan said curiously.

"Xiao Yan, don't be distracted, you just need to put medicine and refine," Zhu Jing said on the side.

But in Zhujing's heart, she was indeed up and down, she was surprised to find that since this Dan furnace can identify the genus of the medicine in the furnace, the pharmacist can more accurately grasp the degree of refinement of the medicine according to the light, Zhujing really can't imagine that among all the stones, only the colorful divine stone and the hundred spirit beast horn have such an ability, could it be that it is refined with one of these two stones? There is an alchemist on this continent who can match such a Dan furnace.

With the guidance of Zhujing, plus a good Dan furnace, Shi Yan quickly controlled the heat in the furnace, after a wave of Jinchuang medicine came out, since the Jinchuang medicine exuded a trace of medicinal fragrance, Puqi smelled that the halazi flowed out, and couldn't wait to snatch the formed Jinchuang medicine and throw it all into his mouth.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, watching as Pucci just poured the medicine into his mouth, the hair on his whole body stood up all of a sudden, and then slowly fell, and finally he fell there with an intoxicated look.

"This~ What's wrong with this?" Arus wondered.

"Hehehehe, I've only heard of drunkenness, but today there are drunkenness," said Zhu Jing with a smile.

"What do you mean, drunk? Isn't it my brother's medicine that poisoned Pucci," Arus exclaimed.

"Huh?" Shi Yan was taken aback.

"Poof~" Just when Shi Yan was frightened by Arus's words, Pucci jumped up all of a sudden, jumping all over the ground with joy, and Shi Yan's suspended heart slowly fell.

"Puff~Puff~Puff~" Pucci ran to Shi Yan's side, broke Shi Yan's hand and searched for it, and finally jumped anxiously.

"Do you still want to eat?" Shi Yan asked.

"Puff~" Pucci nodded and exclaimed.

"Hehe, if you like it, I really thought you were poisoned" Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Silly boy, Pucci is a mountain spirit, and he has the ability to distinguish poisonous weeds, how can he be poisoned," said Zhu Jing with a smile.

"That's right, if Pucci approves it, it means that my golden medicine has succeeded," Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Any pharmacist can succeed the first time, you just got a good medicine furnace and dyed the incense inside," said Zhu Jing.

"Oh~" Shi Yan said.

"Senior brother, you are still very powerful, we won't have to worry about running out of money to buy medicine in the future, haha, great," Arus smiled.

"Hehe, Aunt Jing said, this is very ordinary, but it can indeed save a lot in the future, and it is not bad" Shi Yan said with a smile.

Zhu Jing looked at Shi Yan, how much he wanted to tell him, you are really a genius, this Dan furnace is only a small part, Shi Yan's mother Princess Zhuyue back then, it took more than a dozen pairs of materials to refine 1 bottle of gold sore medicine in front of him. And his son, since it was a one-time success! Although excited, Zhu Jing still held back, she suddenly understood why Quartz took Shi Yan away from the swaddling clothes back then, maybe only by staying away from the national capital would Shi Yan become such a child.
