Chapter 946

She waited a long time and still found it hard to accept this reality.

After all, to her, the Battle Emperor was the most powerful figure she knew.

Moreover, such a figure had not appeared on the Battle Qi Continent for many years.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's talk about alchemy."

Xiao Yan changed the subject, "I can't prove to you right away just how powerful the Immortal Martial Path is."

"Alright."

Aunt Yao nodded, "I'll teach you a Qi-Enhancing Powder first. It's not expensive—try it."

"Alright."

Xiao Yan nodded, received the formula, turned and left the room, and returned shortly after with the herbs purchased.

Back in the room, she once again summoned true qi fire, shaping it into a dantian furnace, and tossed the herbs inside.

Aunt Yao watched calmly, a pang of envy rising in her heart.

"This true qi fire is so convenient—pure, flawless, and immensely powerful. If I'd had this kind of flame when I learned alchemy, my techniques would surely have been far superior."

As she thought this, she saw Xiao Yan's herbs melt into liquid, then solidify into individual elixirs.

"That's not right—the Qi-Enhancing Powder shouldn't be condensed into pills!"

In the common classification of ointments, elixirs, pills, and powders, ointments are paste-like, elixirs are pill-shaped, and powders are fine powder.

Xiao Yan nodded: "I know."

She extinguished the flame and presented the elixirs she had crafted.

"Aunt Yao, take a look!"

Aunt Yao used her spiritual force to draw the pills closer and examined their medicinal properties in detail.

For a cultivator of her level, the Qi-Enhancing Powder was far too simple—like an old professor grading elementary school homework.

"Impossible!"

"This can't be!"

Aunt Yao analyzed the elixirs, her expression turning bewildered, "Same herbs—why is the potency increased severalfold? This is impossible."

Generally, herbs contain only so much medicinal essence; even the most skilled alchemist cannot create new essence out of nothing—only purify what already exists.

She could only make the medicinal essence purer.

Xiao Yan's methods utterly surpassed her understanding.

If Aunt Yao had come from the modern world, she would have said this wasn't scientific.

"This must be the mystery of true qi," Xiao Yan speculated. "Shall we try a few more elixirs?"

Aunt Yao returned the Qi-Enhancing Elixir, nodded, and taught her several more formulas and alchemical methods.

Half a day later.

Aunt Yao fell into complete shock.

Xiao Yan learned too quickly.

For every elixir, she grasped it almost instantly, mastered it in moments—as if she were born an alchemist.

Moreover, every elixir she crafted had more than double the potency of those made by ordinary alchemists, leaving Aunt Yao speechless.

"Do you really want to learn alchemy?" Aunt Yao asked.

Xiao Yan nodded: "Of course."

Aunt Yao nodded: "Fine. I'll teach you alchemy—but I have one condition."

"Prepare a body for you?" Xiao Yan asked.

Aunt Yao was startled: "You actually know that?"

"Of course I know," Xiao Yan nodded. "It's not hard. Aunt Yao, you have the Burning Scripture, right? Give it to me—I'll sell it. If the points add up, I'll ask Taixuan Brother to craft you a new body—stronger than your original one."

I'll act now and forge you a new body—stronger than your original one.

Aunt Yao looked confused.
