Without looking at the pill in the furnace, Old Hall Master Yang smiled and said, "Ling Xiao, although there is a problem with your pill refining process, it doesn't matter. You've done very well. At your age, only Lan Er can do this. But she started learning alchemy at the age of nine, and you've just started."
"Old Senior, is there a problem with my pill refining process?"
Ling Xiao asked with a frown. He didn't understand what was wrong with his pill refining process. Everything was going smoothly.
"It's too early to open the furnace, but this is normal. After all, it's your first time refining pills," Lan Yu 'er replied.
A rare smile appeared on her face.
Could it be that this popsicle was going to melt?
"But Old Senior, I think the quality of my Gold Snow Lotus Spirit Dispersing Pill is better than the ones refined by your Medicine Hall."
Ling Xiao took his pill and handed it to Old Hall Master Yang.
"How is this possible … Ah! This is impossible! "
Old Hall Master Yang's words were a little incoherent.
That was because he had initially thought that Ling Xiao was a little arrogant. However, when he saw the medicinal pill, his expression turned into one of astonishment.
At this time, even the puppy on his shoulder, which had been sleeping with its eyes closed, opened its eyes and barked twice.
Lan Yu 'er's face was also flushed with shock, like a ripe apple.
Dai Yuling sat directly on the ground, her whole body drenched.
"He only used one-third of the time to refine such a perfect Gold Snow Lotus Spirit Dispersing Pill! This old man isn't hallucinating, is he? "
Old Hall Master Yang pulled his beard fiercely, as if he wanted to save himself from an illusion.
"Oh, it's not an illusion. Boy, how did you do it?"
Old Hall Master Yang asked in amazement. "No, no, no. Don't answer. Let this old man think."
He walked around the furnace, then carefully observed the furnace fire. Finally, he observed the pill. Then, he clapped his hands and said, "I understand, I understand! You're really a genius. When most people refine pills, a lot of the furnace's energy will be wasted in the process. Moreover, there will always be mistakes in controlling the fire. Therefore, one can only refine slowly. This way, if there are mistakes, one can fix them in time. "
"But you're different. You actually used your true essence to create an insulating layer around the pill furnace. This prevented the furnace's energy from leaking out. Of course, this is only a small trick. This old man and Lan girl have tried it before, but we weren't as good as you."
"The most surprising thing is that you didn't make the slightest mistake in the process of controlling the fire. In other words, the entire process was flawless. That's why you were able to greatly reduce the time."
Lan Yu 'er asked anxiously, "Ling Xiao, are you hiding something from us? Just the day before yesterday, you didn't know anything about pharmacology. How could you refine such a perfect Gold Snow Lotus Energy Dispersing Pill today?"
She suspected that Ling Xiao had never concocted pills before.
Ling Xiao smiled unhurriedly and said, "Senior Sister, I don't have many advantages, but my memory is especially good and my comprehension is passable. I have memorized all the books you gave me the day before yesterday, and I have more or less comprehended them. Moreover, I have already gone through the process of refining pills more than a hundred times in my mind, which is why I was able to succeed so easily."
"Don't tell me that you've memorized all the books?"
Lan Yu 'er's eyes widened like two bright moons.
Ling Xiao nodded solemnly and said, "Senior Sister, you're right. I've memorized all the books. In fact, not only the Gold Snow Lotus Energy Dispersing Pill, I can even refine other ordinary pills."
When he spoke, his tone was as modest as possible. He didn't want others to think that he was too arrogant.
But, what was the use of being modest about this kind of thing?
In the eyes of others, being able to do this kind of thing, modesty would become arrogance.
Old Hall Master Yang glanced at the puppy on his shoulder. At that moment, a golden light suddenly appeared on the puppy's forehead.
Although it disappeared in a flash, it was still caught by Ling Xiao.
Only now did he know that the puppy was not ordinary.
"Old man, do you mean that he didn't lie?"
Old Hall Master Yang's face showed ecstasy.
His puppy was not ordinary. The golden light on its forehead was an ancient magical ability — the Eyes of Truth.
It was useless for anyone to lie in front of it.
Now that he learned that Ling Xiao didn't lie, it meant that what Ling Xiao said was true. He really did have a terrible memory and perception.
Old Hall Master Yang had lived for more than a hundred years. He was close to two hundred years old. He had seen too many geniuses. Among them, there were many people who had a "retentive memory".
Ling Xiao seemed to not only have a good memory, but his perception was also heaven-defying.
If one only remembered, it was impossible to successfully refine pills. That required a complete understanding.
Obviously, Ling Xiao did it.
In fact, Old Hall Master Yang didn't fully understand how terrifying Ling Xiao was.
He didn't have a good memory or a high perception.
Instead, he could directly integrate what he saw and touched into his soul.
The soul was the foundation of a person. All the knowledge, memories, skills, and so on of a person existed in the soul.
Not to mention a few books, even if it was a complicated martial art move, he could directly take it for himself. It just depended on whether he liked it or not.
"Monster!"
After a long time, Old Hall Master Yang and Lan Yu 'er said these two words at the same time.
Yes, an existence more terrifying than a genius. Wasn't that a monster?
"You two are overpraising me. I just have a good memory. I can probably achieve a retentive memory. In addition, my perception is slightly better."
Ling Xiao scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Pretend! You brat, keep pretending! Having a retentive memory and a terrifying perception is very important for a martial artist. Don't you know how important it is? "
Old Hall Master Yang said with his eyes wide open.
Although his eyes were wide open, there was a smug smile on his face. Fortunately, he had poached this brat early. Otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss if others took a fancy to him.
Not to mention comprehension ability, just the ability to remember things with a single glance was enough to allow a martial artist to stand above others.
If coupled with Comprehension, it would be like using cheats.
However, Old Hall Master Yang didn't know that these two so-called abilities were just the branches of the Mountain River Martial Soul.
Ling Xiao's ability was far beyond their imagination.
"Can I test you again?"
Lan Yu 'er hesitated and said.
"Senior Sister, we agreed on four questions. You can't go back on your words."
Ling Xiao smiled bitterly.
"No, I just want to confirm if you really have a retentive memory," Lan Yu 'er explained.
Ling Xiao looked at the sky. There was still time, so he could only sigh and say, "Okay, but it can't be too long. If you want to ask, hurry up."
"Haha, I want to participate too!" Dai Yuling said hurriedly.
"This old man will also join in the fun." Old Hall Master Yang also became playful.
