Xue Qing's devil aura made her retract her arrogance and be cautious. What she couldn't believe was that Nan Wei, who had always been arrogant, half-knelt in front of a young man.
Cultivators usually just cupped their fists in greeting. Nan Wei's kneeling was a form of acknowledgement from the master and servant.
"Nan Wei greets Young Master!" Nan Wei's eyes were blazing.
"Young Master?" Qin Yu seemed to have understood something. So this skinny kid was Nan Wei's master.
Her eyes were sizing up Ning Fans from head to toe. She couldn't understand how Ning Fans skinny physique was able to block Xue Qing's Gold Core spirit sense and how Nan Wei was willing to serve him wholeheartedly.
But when her eyes fell on the jade token on Ning Fan's waist, her pretty face turned pale. She instantly understood Ning Fan's identity.
She didn't know what 'Young Master' was, but she knew that the young man in front of her was the elder of Dual Cultivation Palace.
"He … he's Ning Fan! Ah, no, I mean, Elder Ning … "
The reverence in Qin Yu's eyes wasn't fake. Given her conceited character, she rarely feared anyone.
In fact, Qin Yu cultivated a secret technique that only the direct descendants of Qin Clan in Western Yue Country could cultivate. When she secretly used this technique on Ning Fan, she was afraid of him to death!
"Bloodthirst Technique"!
This technique could increase one's cultivation base by killing people, but it had a huge drawback and was extremely difficult to cultivate. However, this technique was extremely mysterious. The cultivator of this technique could see how many people a person had killed in their life by observing the blood qi on their soul.
In Qin Yu's eyes, although Xue Qing had a strong cultivation base and a bad temper, the blood qi on his body was at most hundreds of thousands of people. He wasn't a homicidal maniac.
However, Ning Fan looked gentle and humble, but the blood qi on his soul was hundreds of times more than Xue Qing's!
Ning Fan's hands were full of blood debts. He had overturned the Heaven Separation Sect and swept across the Demon Sinister Forest. He had taken the lives of nearly a hundred thousand people, and all of them were cultivators! Moreover, there were a thousand balls of blood qi that emitted an ominous light. Without a doubt, Ning Fan had killed a thousand people who were comparable to Gold Core experts!
One couldn't tell how ruthless Ning Fan was from his appearance.
Ning Fan didn't care about Qin Yu's fear. The only thing that bothered him was Xue Qing's excessive respect. What made him sigh was that Nan Wei's attitude towards him was also too respectful.
With a flick of his sleeve, a gust of wind rose from his sleeve and lifted Nan Wei up.
Ning Fan shook his head and sighed. Compared to the respectful Nan Wei, he preferred the Nan Wei who dragged him around to look at beauties during the Dao Fruit Auction.
The increase in strength was bound to bring about a change in identity. He gained a subordinate, but lost a friend.
"Young master …"
"Nan's Young master can call me Nan!"
Good Nanwei, looking at your cultivation, it seems like you have reached the peak of the Vein Opening realm, not far from the Harmonious Spirit realm. This Profound Spirit Dan is for you. Go into seclusion once and break through to the Harmonious Spirit realm shouldn't be hard!
T. and said. and said. Fan and took out took out a a Dan. and said.
The Profound Spirit Dan was merely a Second Revolution Dan. Its ingredients were not precious, but its effect was heaven defying. It could allow a peak Vein Opening cultivator to break through to the Harmonious Spirit realm with a hundred percent success rate! However, there were very few people who could refine this pill, because in order to refine this pill, one needed to master a special alchemy technique.
Fire and Water coexist!
No one in Yue Country knew how to refine pills. Even in the entire Rain Immortal World, only a few people knew how to refine pills.
At the very least, Xue Qing wouldn't. He looked at the pill bottle that contained the Profound Spirit Pill, almost wanting to immediately snatch it and analyze it.
But after thinking about it, he decided to forget about it. This was the pill that Ning Fan had given to Nan Wei. Out of respect for Ning Fan, Nan Wei would not snatch it from him.
Nan Wei had never thought that the Young Lord would bestow such a precious pill to him without hesitation. At this moment, his heart was filled with even more respect and gratitude towards Ning Fan.
"Thank you for the medicine, Young Master!"
"Yes." Ning Fan nodded his head lightly. He seemed to have thought of something and added, "Oh right, I will be concocting pills in the Dan Palace for half a month. After half a month, I think you will have successfully broken through to the Harmonious Spirit realm. Come to the Dan Palace and wait for me. I have something for you to do."
The thing that Ning Fan wanted Nan Wei to do was naturally to send the finished pills back to Ning City.
Because of the Bone Sovereign, he wasn't willing to return to Ning City at this time, in case the missing Bone Sovereign pointed the spearhead at Zhi He and the others.
Naturally, Nan Wei agreed to Ning Fan's request. After Ning Fan entered the Dan Palace, Xue Qing's indifferent face squeezed out a stiff smile for the first time at Nan Wei.
"Little friend seems to have a good relationship with Elder Ning."
"Senior can just call me Nan Wei. Junior doesn't deserve the title of little friend!" Nan Wei was at a loss of how to respond to Xue Qing's sudden change of attitude.
"Hehe, little friend seems to be here to concoct pills? Come in. This old man will open a primary concoction room for you. "
Xue Qing's change of attitude was only directed at Nan Wei. The other inner sect disciples who wanted to concoct pills still couldn't enter the Dan Palace.
They cast envious eyes at Nan Wei because even fools could see that the reason why Xue Qing was so polite to Nan Wei was because of Ning Fan!
"This Nan Wei is really lucky to have a relationship with Elder Ning …"
...
Ning Fan got what he wanted this time. He was given a high grade concoction room which allowed him to concoct pills using the Third Grade Earth Fire.
This time, he planned to stay in the concoction room for half a month to concoct all the Third Revolution Pills he needed.
Xue Qing's respect had caught Ning Fan's attention. According to Xue Qing's character, he would only show respect to a Grand Master Alchemist. Could it be that Xue Qing had seen through my true concoction technique?
No, I haven't exposed my concoction technique in front of him. He shouldn't know about it … but if he knows that I'm a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, will there be some changes in his plan …?
Something out of the ordinary must be a demon … Ning Fan looked at the deep green earth fire and pondered for a long time before sweeping away the worries in his heart.
If Xue Qing really had any conspiracy, he wouldn't be afraid of him.
Compared to Bone Sovereign, Xue Qing wasn't a threat at all.
He patted his storage pouch and took out the Dan Fragmentation Cauldron. Then, he flicked his sleeve and took out several stalks of 500-year-old and 1000-year-old spiritual herbs.
As Ning Fan's magical power increased, he was able to control the Dan Fragmentation Cauldron with ease. Only Gold Core old monsters could control a High Grade Magical Treasure with their vast magical power. Ning Fan's magical power had already reached the basic requirement to use it.
Stalks of spiritual herbs were thrown into the cauldron. Wisps of medicinal qi spread out in all directions.
A Third Grade Earth Fire could even incinerate a Gold Core old monster if one wasn't careful. But in Ning Fan's hand, a trace of black flame had completely subdued the earth fire.
In the concoction room, Ning Fan went into seclusion for half a month. For half a month, Xue Qing stood outside the concoction room like a clay statue, guarding Ning Fan.
From time to time, he would extend his nose and sniff the air. Each time, he would show a different look of surprise and delight.
"Third Revolution Pill, Dragon Saliva Pill!"
"Hiss! This is a peak Third Revolution Pill, Violet Golden Pill! "
"En? What kind of medicinal fragrance is this? It seems to be a Third Revolution pill … I reckon that it's a pill used to protect the meridians. "
"Oh? This is Flesh Growing Pill … this pill seems to be used to nourish a woman's body … Tsk tsk tsk, this Elder Ning is really a playboy. I wonder what this pill will do … "
"Impossible! I can't be wrong about this smell! Yin Thunder Pill! This old man has only seen this pill in an ancient remnant scroll! "
"And, this is … this is … this is!"
One had to admit that Xue Qing's sense of smell was heaven-defying. He was able to infer Ning Fan's concoction process just from a trace of formation and an insignificant pill fragrance!
His heart was more certain that Ning Fan was a Fourth Revolution Pill Master. This time, he had at least 90% confidence!
Because no other Third Revolution Pill Master had Ning Fan's speed and exquisite technique. Even the Fourth Revolution Pill Master that Xue Qing had met before couldn't compare to Ning Fan in terms of speed and success rate!
As for Xue Qing, he had more things to think about.
If Ning Fan was really a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, would he be the same person as the rumoured Black Devil Ning?
A Fourth Revolution Pill Master was even rarer than a Nascent Soul expert. It was impossible for two Fourth Revolution Pill Masters to appear in Yue Country at the same time. Moreover, it was such a coincidence that they were a grandfather and a grandson.
If that was the case, then Ning Fan had deceived the entire country with a lame lie.
Although the lie was lame, compared to a 17-year-old Fourth Revolution Pill Master, most of the people were willing to believe that there was a Black Devil Ning in this world.
Qin Yu could see that Ning Fan had killed people like cutting grass, but Xue Qing could see Ning Fan's true concoction technique!
From this, one could tell that no one in the cultivation world could be underestimated. Even if one was cautious, there was no guarantee that the secret wouldn't be leaked.
Fortunately, Xue Qing wasn't interested in Ning Fan's true identity. What he was concerned about was where Ning Fan learned his pill refinement techniques from.
While Xue Qing was waiting bitterly, a formation light flashed. After half a month of silence, the stone door of the concoction room opened with a loud bang. Ning Fan walked out of the concoction room, bathed in a rich medicinal fragrance.
Half a month of continuous concoction had made him extremely tired, but his magical power had improved a little because of the consumption of the concoction.
Therefore, his aura had become more stable.
Ning Fan cupped his fists at Xue Qing. When he was about to leave, Xue Qing pulled his sleeve.
"Elder Ning is a Fourth Revolution Pill Master!" Xue Qing transmitted his voice to Ning Fan.
"So what if I am? So what if I'm not?"
Ning Fan's eyes turned cold. Was this Xue Qing finally going to reveal his intention? However, he didn't know whether it was a good or bad intention.
"If Elder Ning is a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, then this old man has three benefits to give to Elder Ning."
"Oh? What are the three benefits? I'd like to hear the details. "
Ning Fan's eyes relaxed a little. It seemed like this Xue Qing didn't have any hostility towards him.
However, Ning Fan still couldn't figure out what Xue Qing was planning to do to him.
"Hehe, the first benefit is far away, but it's right in front of your eyes. If Elder Ning is a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, then this old man is willing to be your cauldron boy. Hehe, this old man is an Intermediate Third Revolution Pill Master, an early Gold Core expert. Isn't it a benefit to be willing to be Elder Ning's cauldron boy?"
"Oh? Elder Xue really knows how to joke. You are a dignified senior. How can you be my cauldron boy? Not to mention that I'm not a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, even if I am, I don't think it's an advantage for Elder to be my cauldron boy. Look at the cauldron. What Elder wants to see isn't the cauldron fire, but my concoction technique! "
Ning Fan revealed a faint smile. His words had exposed Xue Qing's intention.
It turned out that Xue Qing was coveting his concoction technique.
"Hehe, being a cauldron boy can't move Elder Ning? Ai, forget it. In order to learn concoction technique, this old man will go all out. If Elder Ning is really a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, I, Xue Qing, am willing to be Elder Ning's disciple! I will let Elder Ning plant a Restrictive Spell on me to control my life and death! "
"Cough, cough, cough …"
This time, Ning Fan was choked by Xue Qing's words.
Although he was a schemer, he never expected that Xue Qing would be willing to be his disciple in order to learn concoction technique from him.
This Xue Qing seemed to be very reckless in doing things.
Ning Fan didn't care whether he accepted a disciple or not. However, he would be able to obtain an early Gold Core helper for free. Moreover, the helper was a Third Revolution Dan Master.
What he cared more about were the three benefits that Xue Qing mentioned.
The first benefit was that Xue Qing had sold himself to Ning Fan. He didn't know what the other two benefits were.
In any case, it would be a waste not to accept the benefits that were delivered to his doorstep.
"Hehe, master seems to be very interested in the first benefit. That's good, that's good … "Xue Qing had already called Ning Fan his master, as if he was afraid that Ning Fan would go back on his words.
After all, Ning Fan was the only Fourth Revolution Pill Master in Yue Country. If Xue Qing missed out on Ning Fan, he wouldn't be able to find a second master to improve his concoction technique for the rest of his life.
He was too passionate about concoction, just like how Elder Meng Chu was passionate about the Dao of Tea.
"The second benefit … disciple had obtained an ancient remnant scroll by chance a few hundred years ago. It recorded the ancient concoction technique and even mentioned some methods to advance to Fifth Revolution Pill Master. If master is really a Fourth Revolution Pill Master, you will surely be interested in this benefit! "
"What? The method to break through to the Fifth Revolution Pill Master? "
This time, even Ning Fan found it hard to remain calm and collected.
Ever since he obtained the inheritance of Ancient Chaos, he could only reach the Fourth Revolution Pill Master. There seemed to be a barrier that he couldn't break through to the Fifth Revolution.
It would be a lie if he said that he didn't want to break through to the Fifth Revolution Pill Master. Without pills, Ning Fan wouldn't be able to break through to the peak of Harmonious Spirit realm in such a short period of time.
He didn't expect Xue Qing to offer him a pillow when he wanted to sleep. Not only did he sell himself to Ning Fan, but he also gave him the method to break through to the Fifth Revolution Pill Refinement Realm.
"It might not be a bad thing to accept this disciple. After all, this Xue Qing knows how to be filial to his master … "
What Ning Fan cared about was the third benefit that Xue Qing gave him.
The first benefit was that Xue Qing sold himself.
The second benefit was that Xue Qing gave him the method to break through to the Fifth Revolution Pill Master.
What good thing would he give him for the third benefit?
"The third benefit is a pill … no, it's not accurate to call it a pill. To be precise, it's a pill devil …"
Xue Qing's words came to an end, but for the first time, Ning Fan's expression changed.
"Is it really a pill devil?"
"Absolutely!"
Ning Fan couldn't help but be moved. A pill devil was a high grade pill. Due to the passage of time, it had developed spiritual wisdom and turned into a demon.
The conditions for a pill to become a pill devil were extremely harsh. The most important condition was that the pill must at least reach the Fifth Revolution Pill!
Xue Qing actually wanted to give Ning Fan a pill that was above the Fifth Revolution. The only thing that concerned Ning Fan was that he didn't know what cultivation realm the pill devil had reached.
If it was beyond the Gold Core realm, Ning Fan wouldn't take it even if it was extremely precious.
