Chapter 38: Transmission, Ripple Palm
Dong dong dong!
"Master." Soon, Xiao Yi Xian's melodious voice sounded outside the door.
"Come in," Gu He's calm voice echoed within the room. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian entered the room directly, coming to Gu He's room with familiarity.
"Master, disciple has broken through to the Nine-Star Dou Fighter level!" As she approached Gu He, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but speak, her tone carrying a hint of excitement.
"Really? That's fantastic, much stronger than your senior brother." Upon hearing this, a smile tugged at the corner of Gu He's mouth as he gave an honest assessment.
However, when it came to cultivation speed, probably few on the entire continent could match Xiao Yi Xian. Hearing Gu He's praise, a pleased expression lit up Xiao Yi Xian's delicate face.
"Keep up the good work. Once you break through to the Dou Master realm, I will reward you with three gifts." It had been about a month since the last Dou Qi Infusion to Xiao Yi Xian. Gu He made this promise as he spoke.
"Really?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian narrowed her eyes slightly, a glint of anticipation shimmering in her crystal-clear eyes. Then, her expression turned resolute, "Master, rest assured, within ten days, I will definitely break through to the Dou Master realm."
"That's good."
Satisfied with her determination, Gu He nodded. He then took out several jade bottles from his storage ring. "Little one, the contents of these jade bottles are Jade Bone Pill. After your daily practice, pour a bottle into water and soak for a medicinal bath," Gu He explained as he handed the bottles to Xiao Yi Xian.
"Jade Bone Pill!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes brightened. Having received the inheritance of a sixth-grade alchemist, she naturally understood the effects of Jade Bone Pill.
Jade Bone Pill was a fourth-grade pill that, when poured into water for a medicinal bath, not only tempered the body but also
moisturized the skin.
It was exceedingly precious. Usually, noblewomen from prominent families enjoy purchasing Jade Bone Pill for body maintenance. It not only enhances their physique but also nurtures their skin.
"Master, thank you."
With delight, Xiao Yi Xian accepted the jade bottles from Gu He's hands and promptly expressed her gratitude.
"You've been ingesting poisons daily, which might have left hidden injuries in your body. Remember to take medicinal baths every day; otherwise, it might lead to potential troubles," Gu He nodded and carefully instructed.
Jade Bone Powder not only cleared the hidden injuries within Xiao Yi Xian's body but also tempered her physique. Dou Qi Infusion and transmission of knowledge relied heavily on the strength of the physical body.
To ensure his future disciples could absorb his imparted Dou Qi as much as possible, Gu He had to find ways to enhance their constitution. "Understood, thank you, Master."
Hearing Gu He's meticulous advice, Xiao Yi Xian tightly grasped the jade bottles, feeling deeply moved. Master, you're always thinking about your disciples, no matter the time.
I will not disappoint you. A sense of determination flashed within Xiao Yi Xian. With that thought, Xiao Yi Xian looked at Gu He and softly inquired, "Master, do you have any poisons here?"
Upon hearing this, Gu He contemplated for a moment, then took out a silver token from his storage ring and handed it to Xiao Yi Xian. "Disciple, this is an identity token I've applied for you. From now on, you can visit the main peak every half month to request a batch of medicinal herbs."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian accepted the silver token from Gu He's hand. On it were inscribed the three characters "Yun Lan
Zong," representing the Yun Lan Sect.
However, above the three characters was also an image of an alchemy cauldron. This token represented the identity of an alchemist within the Yun Lan Sect.
As the foremost power in the Jia Ma Empire, the Yun Lan Sect had recruited not only Gu He, a sixth-grade alchemist, but also many
other alchemists.
Within the Yun Lan Sect, there were quite a few alchemists who hadn't joined the Alchemist Guild. For these recruited alchemists, the Yun Lan Sect offered generous incentives.
Every half month, these alchemists were allowed to request a batch of medicinal herbs from the sect. Of course, the grade of these medicinal herbs depended on the alchemist's level.
Gu He had also educated Xiao Yi Xian about these common practices. Then he looked at Xiao Yi Xian and beckoned, "No problem, come here. I'll teach you a combat technique now."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes lit up with anticipation, and she approached Gu He. Gu He slowly extended a finger and tapped Xiao Yi Xian's smooth forehead. At the same time, he silently invoked in his mind,
"System, bestow the 'Ripple Palm' technique to Xiao Yi Xian." In the next moment, Xiao Yi Xian felt a surge of information in her
mind. She closed her eyes and focused on receiving this information.
After a moment, Xiao Yi Xian slowly opened her eyes, and her beautiful eyes shimmered with delight. "High-grade Yellow Rank combat technique, Ripple Palm."
Indeed, what Gu He had just imparted to Xiao Yi Xian was a high-grade Yellow Rank combat technique. Because it hadn't been a full month since he last bestowed her with a technique through the transfer of knowledge, he couldn't trigger the system's reward mechanism this time.
As a result, Gu He didn't share the two advanced Purple Rank combat techniques he had learned with Xiao Yi Xian. Nevertheless, Xiao Yi Xian was already quite content with what she had received.
After the knowledge transfer from Gu He, the essence of the Ripple Palm was deeply imprinted in her mind. With a bit of practice, she
could successfully execute the Ripple Palm technique.
"Thank you, Master," Xiao Yi Xian expressed her gratitude to Gu He. "Disciple, once you break through to the Dou Master realm, I'll bestow upon you an advanced Purple Rank combat technique," Gu He said with a smile. "Really?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian felt a surge of joy, becoming even more eager to advance to the Dou Master realm. "Alright, go outside and practice diligently. Don't embarrass yourself in front of Senior Sister Nalan tomorrow," Gu He chuckled.
"Understood, Master." Xiao Yi Xian responded and left the room excitedly. "Now, it's time for a breakthrough!" After Xiao Yi Xian left, Gu He also stood up and moved to the adjacent alchemy room.
