I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them? - Chapter 130

If comprehension does not come, then it signifies that the master-disciple relationship is not meant to be.

“Remember, what 1 am teaching you is the Dao, not ordinary cultivation techniques. The Dao is something that needs to be comprehended, to be truly understood…”

Li Xuan emphasized again that he was teaching the Dao, which must be comprehended, not merely practiced as a martial arts technique. If you do not comprehend it, if you do not perfect it, you will not be able to cultivate it.

“Master, I understand!”

Su Lingxiu nodded her petite head.

Her heart was greatly shaken by the profound strength of the martial arts in this world.

How powerful would she become if she truly comprehended it?

The miraculous and mystical power of medicinal pills – if she could concoct them, would she still worry about slow progress in cultivation?

Just one pill could save ten or eight grueling days, or even a month or a year of harsh cultivation.

“I need to figure out this prescription first!”

Su Lingxiu thought to herself with excitement.

“Hmm.”

Li Xuan nodded. He believed in Su Lingxiu’s talent. After teaching her these theories, figuring out the formulas and concocting the medicinal pills would not be difficult for her.

However, the art of medicinal martial arts is not simply about prescriptions, usage of medicinal herbs, and medical skills. It’s about martial arts cultivation.

The hardest part for Su Lingxiu would be to understand the cultivation method of medicinal martial arts, how to cultivate a unique inner energy specific to this art.

The initial step is the hardest.

Once she successfully starts and gains comprehension of the cultivation method, the later stages, even reaching the Innate Realm or higher, will relatively be easier because she would have established a foundation.

After all, she would already have a foundation and theoretical knowledge.

Li Xuan thought of his cherished disciple Xu Yan, who was cultivating pure martial arts. Because of its purity, his understanding and comprehension of martial arts was incredibly deep.

Moreover, Xu Yan was the pioneer of martial arts. The foundation and basis of this great martial arts enterprise was built on Xu Yan.

“Although the cultivation method of medicinal martial arts is different from pure martial arts, it is closer to pure martial arts. So, could Xu Yan assist Su Lingxiu in understanding the cultivation technique?”

Li Xuan thought to himself.

In terms of comprehension and brainstorming ability, no one could probably surpass Xu Yan.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan said again, “As for how to cultivate the martial arts; how to refine the skin, bones, and internal organs; and how to cultivate the internal energy of medicinal martial arts, you can seek advice from your eldest senior brother when he returns.”

Su Lingxiu’s eyes lit up and she asked, “How strong is my eldest senior brother?”

Li Xuan calmly answered, “He’s in the Innate Realm, able to kill ordinary grandmasters in the Inner Domain with ease!”

Su Lingxiu was extremely excited. Her master was mysterious and powerful, and her eldest senior brother was equally mighty. As long as she successfully understood the cultivation technique and took the first step, with such a strong backing, what would she have to fear?

No need at all!

“Master, master, when will my eldest senior brother come back?”

Su Lingxiu asked impatiently.

She wanted to understand the cultivation technique and start cultivation as soon as possible. The technique taught by her master was so profound that she couldn’t find a way to comprehend it in a short time.

As for medicinal pills, she already had some insights.

She just needed to organize her thoughts, then she could devise some pill prescriptions.

She could then find an alchemy furnace and try to figure out how to concoct the pills. But she had to become proficient in martial arts and cultivate inner energy before she could truly concoct pills.

Therefore, even if she understood the medicinal pills and could devise pill prescriptions, without comprehending the cultivation technique, she would just be a common female medicinal practitioner.

She wouldn’t be a true medicinal martial artist!

“Your eldest senior brother will return in a few days. You should focus on understanding it.”

Finished speaking, Li Xuan started to leave.

Su Lingxiu, holding the iron shovel, excitedly followed him, “Master, I already have some insights about the pill prescriptions. When I return and organize them, I should be able to devise some prescriptions.

“But I don’t have an alchemy furnace, how can I concoct pills?”

With his hands behind his back, and walking leisurely, Li Xuan said, “I can lead you to the door, the cultivation is on you.”

“Alright, I will find a way myself.”

Su Lingxiu seemed a little despondent.

When they passed by the place where Meng Chong was cultivating, Su Lingxiu asked curiously, “Master, what is my second senior brother doing?”

“Cultivating, maintaining the blade, understanding the cultivation technique,” Li Xuan answered indifferently.

“Maintaining the blade?”

Su Lingxiu blinked.

“Nourishing the blade with the heart, with the will…you wouldn’t understand, this is not where your talent lies.”

Li Xuan looked at the girl.

His gaze fell on the iron shovel in her hand. What a nice girl, yet she likes playing with an iron shovel.

“What are you doing with that shovel?”

“I’m burying people!”

“…how many people have you buried?”

“Not a hundred, but definitely a few dozens.”

Su Lingxiu thought for a moment and spoke.

She continued, “Master, I used to have a small hoe for digging up medicinal herbs, but unfortunately I lost it. Now I only have this iron shovel.”

After returning to the small courtyard.

Li Xuan sat down on a chair, while Su Lingxiu went straight into her boudoir.

“Aunt Zhou, go buy some paper and pens for me, I need a lot!”

“Alright, miss.”

Aunt Zhou nodded, came out of Su Lingxiu’s boudoir, found Shi’er, and asked him to buy paper and pens.

Shi’er was reluctant to agree, as he was a servant to his master. Why should he listen to you?

However, considering that Su Lingxiu is now the master’s disciple, and she needs paper and pens, he had no choice but to agree.

“Miss, how is it?”

Zhou Ying returned to the room, asking anxiously.

“Aunt Zhou, Master is so amazing, Alchemy and Martial Arts, too powerful, too magical, I want to practice alchemy!”

Su Lingxiu said excitedly.

Zhou Ying was bewildered, Alchemy? What is that?

“Aunt Zhou, go find me an Alchemy Furnace. Let me think about what an Alchemy Furnace should look like…”

Su Lingxiu pondered.

“Master said, the Alchemy Furnace cannot be a common iron furnace, so it must be made of the material for forging treasure…”

In the Inner Domain, those who can truly use the treasure are almost all grandmasters.

Not many first-class Martial Artists possess treasures.

“But where can I find a treasure in this wilderness?”

Su Lingxiu was a bit troubled.

“Miss, what is an Alchemy Furnace? I can go to the Imperial Palaces of Wu Country or Qi Country to see if I can find one for you.”

Zhou Ying pondered.

Shi’er returned with the paper and pens. After handing them to Zhou Ying, he continued to ponder how to break through his bottleneck and enter the realm of Qi and Blood.

Su Lingxiu picked up the pen and started drawing on the paper, sketching the vague outline of the alchemy furnace that appeared in her mind, and drew the alchemy furnace on the paper.

The Alchemy Furnace isn’t large, it has air holes to expel impurities, and it has sealable lids…

“Aunt Zhou, the Alchemy Furnace should look like this, but it needs to be made of treasure material…”

She handed the alchemy furnace blueprint to Zhou Ying and said with frustration.

Zhou Ying took the blueprint. Although she didn’t understand what an Alchemy Furnace was, she knew it was important to the young lady!

She solemnly said, “Miss, don’t worry. Although people in the borderland can’t cultivate, there are still some materials available. We should be able to find them.”

“I hope so.”

Su Lingxiu nodded, “Aunt Zhou, try your best to find it. Let Tianmu Sect know and tell Kou Ruozhi to find it for me.”

“I understand. But, miss, if I leave…”

Zhou Ying hesitated.

“Aunt Zhou, it’s okay. Master is so strong, and there are also my senior brothers…”

Su Lingxiu was not worried.

“Then I’ll leave now.”

“Okay!”

Su Lingxiu nodded.

After Aunt Zhou left, Su Lingxiu began to write down her understandings of the alchemical medicine.

At the same time, she listed various precious and spiritual medicines, annotating each medicine’s characteristics and effects.

Arranging these took up most of the day.

Usually Aunt Zhou would take care of her, calling her for meals on time. After Zhou Ying left, Su Lingxiu kept arranging things until she felt hungry.

She looked up at the window. It was already evening.

She came out of the room and saw that her master was sitting in a chair reading a book, looking leisure and like a reclusive expert.

“Master, I’m hungry!”

Su Lingxiu grabbed Li Xuan’s arm, blinking at him.

Li Xuan put down the ancient book and said, “Shi’er, from today on, you are responsible for cooking for Lingxiu.”

“Yes, Master!”

Shi’er respectfully replied.

“Thankyou, Master!”

Su Lingxiu was ecstatic.

After dinner, Su Lingxiu continued to arrange various precious medicines in her room, preparing the basics for the creation of the Alchemy Formula.

Li Xuan quietly appeared outside the window, looking at her, he couldn’t help but nod. Su Lingxiu’s talent in Alchemy was quite extraordinary.

She had achieved some enlightenment and was sorting out her thoughts. He believed that the Alchemy Formula would appear before long.

“I hope she can successfully comprehend the method of cultivation.”

Li Xuan thought to himself..
