Chapter 43: Master-consuming
Ji Liuli was very pleased with Cui Yu’s resolve. “Make sure you show me whatever you got from your family first. Also, try and collect as many varieties of elixirs as possible. Each type influences your Dao Foundation in different ways, and the differences in terms of combination can be massive as well. In fact, it may directly influence your future path. Thus, you must be careful.”
Cui Yu gave her a serious nod.
After she was done with Cui Yu, Ji Liuli went over to Bao Yun next.
Bao Yun was also cultivating the Jade Toad Full Moon Painting. Her image was only five zhang long and slightly smaller than Cui Yu’s, but her foundation was exceptional, and her fortune was immense. She was still in the middle of expanding her image and nowhere close to the limits of her potential. As if that wasn’t enough, a plethora of extraordinary phenomena were blooming inside her image. It was like a world of gods and devils.
Frankly, Wei Yuan’s progress was terrible compared to Cui Yu and Bao Yun. This discovery greatly displeased Ji Liuli. Thus, she decided to up the ante.
After class was over, Wei Yuan followed Ji Liuli to the Council Hall as usual. The woman had grabbed a bunch of ingredients from Xu Henshui’s medicinal cabinet and refined them into medicinal powder. After pouring it into the wooden barrel, she gave him a glance and asked, “What are you waiting for? Strip!”
Wei Yuan clenched his teeth and stripped naked as she ordered. Then, he climbed into the barrel that looked like it was brimming with blood.
He began shivering uncontrollably as soon as he entered the blood-like liquid. As it turned out, the medicinal soup was colder than even a sea of ice!
Two hours later, when Wei Yuan’s little face had become positively blue from the cold, the medicinal soup had turned back to clear water.
