Pu Siyuan was answering Yi Tian's questions in the back hall of Deren Hall, and the two talked about the use of Scarlet Toad blood in their free time.
It turned out that Pu Siyuan's beloved wife, Qu Shi, had a strange disease of extreme cold since she was a child, and it would break out once a year.
When it broke out, her whole body would be cold as if frozen. Scarlet Toad blood was a great tonic and could be used as a medicinal primer to treat his wife's illness.
This time, it was all thanks to Yi Tian that he was able to come back alive and bring back Scarlet Toad blood.
Unfortunately, Qu Shi did not have spiritual roots, and it would not be long before the two of them would be separated by life and death, which was really sad.
Yi Tian hurriedly took out three packets of Qi Drawing Powder from his storage bag and gave them to Pu Siyuan. Under the other party's puzzled gaze, Yi Tian slowly explained the use of Qi Drawing Powder, which made Pu Siyuan almost kneel down to Yi Tian on the spot.
Yi Tian's problems were not small, and gradually, Pu Siyuan could not answer them.
Then he could only ask Yi Tian to wait for a while and ask Second Uncle Pu Shangen to answer.
Yi Tian readily agreed. This kind of thing could be done sooner rather than later, and he could think of countermeasures if he knew about it earlier.
When Pu Siyuan left, Yi Tian also asked him to hide the fact that he had three spiritual roots, so as not to add unnecessary trouble to himself.
Pu Siyuan also swore in front of him that he would never tell anyone about it, which made Yi Tian feel more at ease.
Pu Family's ancestor, Pu Shandao, was at the Foundation Establishment stage, and Pu Shangen was at the eighth level of Qi Refining stage. Usually, when he had nothing to do, he was responsible for the family's training and answering outside questions.
Today, he was called by Pu Siyuan to answer Yi Tian's questions, giving him enough face.
Yi Tian mainly wanted to understand his own situation and whether there would be a problem cultivating the wood and fire spirit arts at the same time in his body.
The answer he got made Yi Tian depressed. Originally, it was very difficult to cultivate one spirit art to the Foundation Establishment stage.
It was common to cultivate two spirit arts at the same time, but only those with great perseverance would do so.
This was because if only one of the two spirit arts was cultivated to the ninth level during the Foundation Establishment stage, then after the Foundation Establishment stage, the other spirit art would be a burden.
It was common knowledge among cultivators that one needed to reach the same level in both systems after the Building Foundation Stage before they could continue to cultivate.
If one cultivated to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment at the same time, they would have to face two Lightning Tribulations. It was very easy for them to not be able to withstand it and eventually die under the Lightning Tribulations.
The advantage was that cultivating two elements at the same time was definitely more powerful than cultivating a single element. Moreover, there were more spells that could be used.
Finally, when the two types of spells were fused together, its power was more than twice as strong as before. As long as he didn't cultivate two types of spells that were incompatible with each other, it would be fine.
Pu Siyuan hurriedly asked what would happen if he cultivated a spirit art with a counter attribute. Pu Shandao glared at him, then picked up an apple from the table and put it in his hand. Then, with a bang, the apple was crushed.
Yi Tian also felt a burst of fear in his heart. Fortunately, he was a dual cultivator of wood and fire.
If he was a dual cultivator of fire and water, just look at this apple.
As for the fusion of the two elements, hadn't he already experimented with it? The combination of the Escaping Wood Stake and the fireball was still very powerful.
Pu Shangen smiled and continued, "It's not absolute. There are two ways to solve it. The first is to disperse all your power and cultivate from the beginning. However, the True Qi in your body that was incompatible with each other will leave traces. When you cultivate, you have to pay special attention to it. If you're not careful, your True Qi will go out of control.
The second method is to cultivate another spirit art so that the incompatible True Qi can fuse together.
For example, if you cultivate fire and water at the same time and cultivate a wood spirit art, you can fuse the fire and water together. However, until now, I have never heard of anyone who cultivated three elements being able to pass the Foundation Establishment Lightning Tribulation.
After Yi Tian heard this, he was relieved. In the future, he would have no problem continuing to cultivate. However, whether it was a single or dual cultivator, he still had to carefully consider it. He couldn't have his cake and eat it too.
Yi Tian had always wanted to enter a sect. Only after entering a sect would he be able to enjoy more resources.
However, he would also face more dangers. The risks and benefits were always proportional.
Pu Shangen also gave Yi Tian a clear path. Two years later, as long as Yi Tian was still in Pu Shan Square, he would be able to participate in the selection of the three sects.
At that time, Yi Tian would only be 18 years old. He would only need to cultivate to the fifth stage of Qi Refining to be selected.
The Pu Clan had some connections in Xuan Ling Sect. When the time came, as long as Yi Tian was willing, the Pu Clan could help.
Yi Tian only agreed on the surface, saying that he would consider Pu Shangen's suggestion. The key was still to see how his cultivation was at that time.
After thanking Pu Shangen for answering his question, Yi Tian was about to leave.
Before leaving, Pu Shangen suddenly told Yi Tian that if he wanted to cultivate refining tools or alchemy, he could come find him.
In Yi Tian's opinion, Pu Siyuan might have told Pu Shangen about his Fire Spirit Root. In any case, Yi Tian didn't mind. It was fine as long as he didn't tell the truth.
On the way back, Yi Tian thought as he walked. But then again, Pu Siyuan's character should be pretty good. Yi Tian believed that Pu Siyuan wouldn't tell anyone about him.
Juxing Village's business was booming for two days before it returned to normal. The entire shop was still deserted.
That person came over to flatter Pu Siyuan. As for Duan Yugang, he was just a Qi Refining fourth stage blacksmith.
There were quite a few people like him in Pu Shan Square. It wasn't like he really wanted to befriend Duan Yugang.
Yi Tian was now considered Duan Yugang's assistant and partner. He usually stayed in the backyard of the shop.
The yard wasn't big. Duan Yugang assigned the west wing room to Yi Tian. The room was very simple. There was only a bed and a table. There wasn't even a chair.
Anyway, there weren't many customers. Besides, cultivators didn't care about these things. For example, Duan Yugang sometimes stayed in front of the stove in the shop for a few days and didn't come back to the backyard at all.
This actually helped Yi Tian. The backyard was quiet and no one would disturb him when he cultivated.
After returning home, Yi Tian sat on the bed and thought about what he had heard today. The most urgent thing now was to improve his cultivation.
He needed to cultivate to the fifth stage of Qi Refining within two years. It sounded easy, but the speed of one stage a year was something that only the more talented disciples in the sects could do.
He didn't have a master or resources here. It seemed uncertain, but it wasn't realistic to ask Yi Tian to return to normal. Which cultivator didn't have ambitions?
It was useless to think too much about this matter. It was better to find some time to think about what auxiliary skills to learn.
Logically speaking, his fire spirit root had innate conditions for alchemy and refining. He still wasn't sure which to choose.
If he cultivated at the same time, he was afraid that he would delay his efforts and end up with nothing.
Suddenly, he remembered that among the three spirit arts he had, there was still the Yin Corpse Arts. Although Yi Tian disdained to learn something that offended the heavens and reason, there were two sides to it.
However, there were always two sides to everything. The Feng Shui techniques and anecdotes recorded in the Yin Corpse Arts were still very attractive to Yi Tian.
Originally, cultivating the Yin Corpse Arts required one to learn the Feng Shui technique. Otherwise, not to mention refining corpses, he wouldn't even know where to dig the graves of those corpses.
For the next few days, Yi Tian hid in his room and cultivated the wood and fire spirit arts. He strived to cultivate the two spirit energies to a sufficient level.
Since the last time he fought against Tian Fei, he found that the power of the two spells doubled when used together. Yi Tian decided that he would still cultivate two elements at the same time. As for the matter of Foundation Establishment, it was still early. He would think about it when the time came.
Outside this Pu Shan Square, there might be a hidden Tian Meng. If he didn't leave behind a trump card as soon as possible, he would directly die if he was caught.
The third level of Qi Refining Stage was unable to release one's Spiritual Sense. Therefore, Yi Tian couldn't directly use his Spiritual Sense to read the refining technique in the spirit stone in his hand.
Fortunately, Pu Siyuan taught Yi Tian that as long as he put the spirit stone on his forehead, he could use his Spiritual Sense to read it directly.
Even if they could release their Spiritual Sense, it was impossible to do so for a long time.
Therefore, they also put the spirit stone on their forehead and read it directly.
The refining technique that Duan Yugang gave to Yi Tian was called Refining Truth. It was called Refining Truth. In fact, it was just a beginner level refining technique.
This was because refining techniques and alchemy techniques were generally passed down. Moreover, they were not easily passed down.
If it weren't for Duan Yugang looking at Yi Tian's life, how could he give a copy of the Refining Truth, which he regarded as his lifeblood, to Yi Tian.
After reading the Refining Truth, Yi Tian sighed and made a decision in his heart. He didn't count on alchemy techniques anymore. This refining technique really looked like something.
Although it was very superficial, it only contained elementary techniques such as the extraction and fusion of raw materials and several common methods of making spiritual artefacts.
However, Duan Yugang could rely on these to support the business of Juxing Village. It seemed that this was a very promising career.
Sitting in front of the furnace and forging iron every day was not something that Yi Tian was willing to do.
This Refining Truth mentioned that if one wanted to learn how to refine artefacts, one must first have a fire spiritual root and then cultivate a fire attribute spiritual art.
Recalling the red spiritual qi in Duan Yugang's hand in the Black Pool Swamp that day, he should also cultivate a fire attribute spiritual art.
Moreover, the last move of wrapping the hammer in flames should be his trump card.
Unfortunately, the hammer was broken, which meant that half of it was wasted. Seeing him staring at the furnace in a daze recently, he should be thinking of refining another hammer for himself.
Thinking about this, Yi Tian suddenly thought of himself dressed as a ranger with a hammer on his back.
Three drops of cold sweat dripped down his temples. This style was a bit too different from what he imagined.
Helplessly shaking his head, he didn't believe that a crafting master was the same as a blacksmith. Duan Yugang belonged to the kind of people who didn't mix well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have opened a crafting shop in this kind of corner.
Thinking about it was just thinking about it, but for Yi Tian, the True Refining Scripture mentioned how to use flames was still very useful.
In the Yin Corpse Secret Method, there was also a description of fire, "Fire is empty, there is a saying that it is empty inside". In the Refining Truth, the description of the fire control method was "Gather at the tip, form without scattering".
After pondering over these words, Yi Tian decided to experiment with it himself. In the past, he only cared about cultivating the Fireball Technique and forgot the basics.
He saw red spirit qi gather in his right hand, and then with a "fire", a wisp of flame appeared in his hand.
Then Yi Tian continued to slowly inject spirit qi into it, constantly compressing the surface of the flame, making it smaller and brighter.
Finally, he took out a few broken spirit weapons from his storage bag, and put the flame in his hand under the spirit weapons and slowly burned them.
He saw that the broken spirit weapons didn't change at first, but after a quarter of an hour, Yi Tian was surprised to find that the spirit weapons were slowly softening and decomposing at a speed visible to the naked eye. After turning into juice and falling to the ground, it condensed into a ball shape again.
Seeing this, Yi Tian still didn't understand, it seems that he had exchanged for a treasure. Duan Yugang, this old boy, was empty-handed but didn't know the value of the treasure. Although the Refining Truth was superficial, it still had a general outline of refining, but there were many things below that were missing. Moreover, this fire control method was absolutely a good thing.
After cultivating for a while, he felt that half of the fire spirit qi in his body had been consumed. It seems that the refining technique still needed to be cultivated from time to time.
Then why didn't Duan Yugang use this method to refine? After Yi Tian finished reading the entire refining technique, he understood that it wasn't that Duan Yugang didn't use it, but that the fire control method had a high requirement for the purity of fire spirit qi.
Also, after forging a spirit weapon, it needed to be inscribed with runes to complete the spirit weapon.
Ordinary runes could be completed with a carving knife, and only those high-grade magic weapons and spirit weapons needed to be inscribed with flames.
Yi Tian finally understood that it wasn't that Boss Duan didn't know how to use it, but that he wasn't interested in learning.
The things made in Juxing Village were all common goods, so which high-grade Qi Refinement cultivator would patronize this place?
Using a carving knife to draw inscriptions was enough. In any case, most of the people who came here didn't know the value of the goods. Juxing Village's foundation was to earn spirit stones, so who would think about other things?
However, Yi Tian also learned something, so he used the fire control method to create the fireball technique.
He could see that the fireball in his hand became smaller and brighter, and its power increased exponentially.
When it shot out, it created a hole in the short wall of the courtyard. If it wasn't for Yi Tian's low cultivation, the house would have been torn down.
