“Moreover, the elixir has no impurities, making it easy to absorb and refine.”
Li Xuan explained briefly.
Xu Yan, surprised and excited, said, “If we have this elixir, won’t cultivating martial arts be like traveling a thousand miles in a day?”
Li Xuan nodded and said, “It can speed up the cultivation of martial arts and makes it easier to break through bottlenecks. However, even the best elixirs should not be overly relied upon, or else your foundation may be unstable, your realm will be illusory, and your strength will be greatly reduced.”
“I see.”
Xu Yan understood. Although he could not use this elixir, his parents and others could.
With this in mind, he looked at his junior sister apprentice with different eyes.
“Junior sister, if there’s anything you don’t understand, your senior brother is here to help you!”
The sooner Su Lingxiu comprehends this, the sooner they will have the elixir, then their parents will be stronger, and he can venture to the Inner Domain earlier.
“Thank you, senior brother.”
Su Lingxiu was delighted.
“Let’s go, we’ll go to the city outskirts and meet up with our second junior brother.”
Xu Yan nodded.
The senior and junior siblings left the small courtyard to the city outskirts.
At the outskirts, the three of them naturally mingled and got close.
Then, Su Lingxiu began to tell them the method of cultivating both alchemy and martial arts.
Meng Chong listened, frowning, his eyes bewildered. He felt that he did not have a clue, this method of cultivating both alchemy and martial arts was not within his realm of talent.
Touching his head, he gave an awkward smile and said, “Junior sister, 1 might not be able to help.”
“Second junior brother, everyone has their own talents.”
Su Lingxiu was not surprised by this.
Her second senior brother, who practiced body cultivation, had robust muscles and everyone could tell that his talent was physical, not mental.
Xu Yan, however, was deep in thought.
Next, Su Lingxiu and Xu Yan began to discuss cultivation techniques.
“Master said that combining alchemy and martial arts is closer to understanding the spiritual energy of all things, triggering vitality with this energy… ‘Medicine is wood, and alchemy is fire…'”
“Junior sister, you haven’t opened up your heavenly bridge and can’t sense spiritual energy, but this spiritual energy of all things is clearly not just about sensing nature’s spiritual energy, but…”
Xu Yan looked at a tree beside him and said, “Junior sister, try to sense the life energy of this tree, the path of cultivation might lie in this.”
Su Lingxiu hesitated. Sense the life energy of a tree?
How to sense that?
“Just lay your hand on the tree, with your heart, your intention, try to feel, to comprehend…”
Xu Yan said thoughtfully.
Su Lingxiu did as he instructed, placing her palm on the tree and trying to sense it silently, but she received nothing.
Xu Yan also pondered deeply.
“Junior sister, alchemy and medicine are inseparable elements in the path of Alchemy Martial Arts. You should try to comprehend the spiritual energy of all things from the perspective of an alchemist, and try to understand yourself from that same point of view.”
The method of cultivating Alchemy Martial Arts can’t be comprehended overnight.
Li Xuan wasn’t surprised by this. Even with Xu Yan’s help, it would still be the case because this method wasn’t something Xu Yan himself cultivated, he could only play a supportive role.
In the next few days, every morning, Su Lingxiu would go to the city outskirts with Xu Yan to comprehend the method of Alchemy Martial Arts cultivation, then she would continue to organize the theories of alchemy and ponder the formulae at night.
At the same time, she recorded all her ideas about alchemy.
She hadn’t comprehended the method of cultivation yet, and had no idea about it, but she had almost completed the arrangement of the art of alchemy.
That evening, after returning from the outskirts of the city and having dinner,
Su Lingxiu was checking the thick stack of drafts, page by page, to see if anything was missed, while adding new knowledge to them.
“Alchemy Martial Arts is naturally inseparable from alchemy and medicine. 1 was too obsessed with the method of cultivation, but 1 never thought that integrating the method of cultivation with medicine is the true essence of Alchemy Martial Arts.
“‘Medicine represents wood and alchemy represents fire’. With wood generating fire, how should I sense the energy of Alchemy Martial Arts?”
Imagining the understanding and conjectures of senior brother on the method, Su Lingxiu felt a hint of enlightenment at this moment.
She didn’t rest for the whole night and told her senior brother about her insights when she arrived at the outskirts of the city the next morning, hoping he could help her evaluate her ideas.
“Junior sister, see this tree? It is wood, and you are fire. Use the spiritual energy of this tree to stimulate your vitality. Feel it delicately with the identity of an alchemist.
“Touch its aura just as you understand the effects of medicinal herbs, understand it.”
Xu Yan said thoughtfully.
Su Lingxiu was taken aback, some understanding dawned in her mind. She had a thorough knowledge of the properties of various herbs.
She was familiar with the characteristics of each precious herb and its primary therapeutic focus. She had also collected herbs on the mountains and identified their distinctive properties.
The effectiveness of these valuable herbs was summarized bit by bit by her predecessors.
The predecessors also pursued understanding and experimented to clarify the characteristics of the precious herbs.
“Senior Martial Brother, I got it!”
Su Lingxiu slightly closed her eyes, placing her hands on a tree, carefully perceiving as if capturing the spiritual energy of the tree.
“The human body has acupoints which respond to Qi and blood, it can start from these acupoints. The heart represents fire, and the nearest to it is the acupoint in the middle of the chest…”
Su Lingxiu’s breath started to change subtly, through her fine perception, she felt a surge of warm flow arising from the acupoint in her chest, warm and continuous.
“Is this Qi and blood?”
Su Lingxiu was overjoyed.
Having sensed the Qi and blood, the most critical step of cultivating the method was accomplished.
After sensing Qi and blood, it is about how to perfect and fully comprehend the cultivation technique.
Then follows refining the skin, bones, and organs.
For Su Lingxiu, refining skin was relatively easy, since she inherently has martial arts foundation, and refining iron bones and copper bones would not be difficult.
“Junior Martial Sister, in the basic realm of medical martial arts, since it’s everlasting bone, you must refine it. Meng Junior Martial Brother and 1 are jade bone and diamond bone.”
Su Lingxiu seriously said after achieving comprehension in cultivation practices with the sensation of Qi and blood.
“Senior Martial Brother, rest assured. I will certainly refine the everlasting bone. I know alchemy; there will definitely be no problem!”
At this time, Su Lingxiu thought of Zhou Ying.
“I wonder if Aunt Zhou can find a pill furnace. 1 have not entered the Qi and blood realm, and cannot refine pills with Qi and blood. 1 must rely on a pill furnace.”
Su Lingxiu was clear that only by refining elixirs could she cultivate faster and refine the everlasting bone.
For other martial artists, the use of too many elixirs would make their realm seem illusory.
However, she cultivated the medical martial arts, naturally could control the dosage well, and could also digest the elixirs more effectively, making it less likely to create an illusory realm.
Back in her room, Su Wenxiu buried her head in the draft of the elixirs.
“I need to write the elixir formula, one for refining skin, one for refining bones, one for refining organs, and one for breaking through bottlenecks. The elixir for Qi and blood realm should be called Qi and Blood Elixir…”
Su Wenxue was flipping through the medicinal herbs recorded and began to pick, combine, and match.
“This elixir formula should not have problems. It has the effect of refining skin, it can speed up refining of the skin, should it be called Skin-refining Elixir? Is the name too straightforward?
“This elixir formula should also not have problems, it’s called Bone-refining Elixir.
“This one is Organ-refining Elixir… In martial arts cultivation, the first step is to sense the Qi and blood, so…
“This elixir formula of mine can help sense Qi and blood, let’s call it Little Qi and Blood Elixir.”
After figuring out an elixir formula, Su Lingxiu felt a sudden burst of inspiration. The theory of elixir and the principles of medicine were clear to her at once.
One after another, she combined elixir formulas.
In her mind, it seemed as if a complete set of medical martial arts secrets had emerged.
In the courtyard.
Li Xuan squinted his eyes, looking at the light leaking from the window of Su Lingxiu’s room. She was probably sorting and composing the theories of medical martial arts again. It was going to be another sleepless night.
The comforting thing was Su Lingxiu had almost achieved comprehension of the practice method of medical martial arts.
She has initially sensed the Qi and blood.
This indicated that the third disciple was already stable and the system of medical martial arts was about to be established.
Suddenly!
Golden light emerged.
Li Xuan was taken aback, had Meng Chong made a breakthrough?
Or, was there a new insight from Xu Yan
“Your disciple Su Lingxiu, from the medical martial arts theory you wrote, has achieved comprehensive understanding of medical martial arts and compiled the outline of medical martial arts secrets. You get the medical martial arts secrets.”
Unexpectedly, the feedback from the Golden Finger was actually as a result of Su Lingxiu.
Li Xuan abruptly stood up from the chair. His heart was filled with joy. This girl, my third disciple, I was not wrong to care for her. She indeed has an extraordinary talent in the way of the elixir.
She didn’t even have a footing in martial arts, yet, she opened up access to elixir formulas and came up with an outline of medical martial arts secret series using her innate talent.
At this moment, Li Xuan had completely mastered the medical martial arts secrets. This was not just an outline; this was the complete series, with all aspects of refining elixirs, treating diseases, elixir formulas, etc., being perfected.
The entire medicinal system within the medical martial arts was no longer a vague theory, but substantive results!
