Chapter 5: Blue Silver Pill, Suotuo City, Winning a Heart in the Middle of the Journey

"Then what is your soul power level?" Zhuqing asked again.

"Level 50 Soul King," Ma Hongjun said.

It was truly not because he was trash, but because the soul power required for each level of the Phoenix Martial Soul was many times that of others; there was no help for it, as the status of the martial soul was set there, and improving it was not as fast as he had imagined.

Moreover, over these years, he had not only improved his cultivation but also studied weapon forging and alchemy.

Within the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, there were chapters exclusive to the Phoenix Clan for weapon forging and alchemy respectively.

Even though he was only a level 50 Soul King, his strength was definitely far beyond this level.

"A twelve-year-old level 50 Soul King!?"

After hearing this, Zhuqing widened her eyes, shocked beyond measure.

Not paying attention to the stone under her feet, she tripped and once again fell into Ma Hongjun's embrace, causing her small face to instantly flush crimson: "I'm sorry, I've been hunted for many days and am too tired."

"I forgot about that."

"Come, eat this; it can help you quickly recover your physical strength and soul power."

A blue pill appeared in Ma Hongjun's hand.

This was the Blue Silver Pill he had refined.

Its main function was to instantly restore lost physical strength and soul power; after several years of his processing and refinement, both the technique and the medicinal efficacy had reached a peak level.

The Blue Silver Pill was just one of the many types of Pill he refined.

He even relied on the Pill he refined to go to auction houses to sell them, allowing himself to achieve financial freedom.

This money was to be used for big things in the future.

There were also people who coveted his Pill and wanted to hunt him down, but they were all killed by him in return.

Furthermore, he had made a trip back to Yehuo Village, donating funds to help improve the village's various buildings and paving the roads, making a great contribution.

Now, there was even a statue of him inside the village.

The vow he had silently made to himself before had also been fulfilled.

"What is this?" This was the first time Zhuqing had seen such a thing.

"This is called a Pill, named Blue Silver Pill. I refined it myself, and the main material is Blue Silver Grass. The effect is very good," Ma Hongjun introduced.

Blue Silver Grass was everywhere and had tenacious vitality; as long as there was soil, a large patch could grow. It was very cheap and easy to keep alive, and each one contained a lot of soul power, so he used the alchemy knowledge he had learned and started on the path of alchemy using Blue Silver Grass.

Such cheap Blue Silver Grass, once refined into a Pill, could be auctioned for thousands of Gold Soul Coins; it was simply obscenely profitable.

Zhuqing picked it up and squeezed it, showing a look of surprise: "Blue Silver Grass has this kind of effect?"

She looked down and saw Blue Silver Grass everywhere.

"Pure Blue Silver Grass cannot achieve this effect; it requires my specific methods of refining and processing to reach such an effect," Ma Hongjun said.

"I heard that the only family on the continent that refines Pill is the Break Clan. Are you a member of the Break Clan? Or are you related to them?"

"But your martial soul is not the Soul-Breaking Spear..."

Zhuqing thought that Ma Hongjun had taken someone from the Break Clan as his master to learn it.

"I have no relation to them. As for how their Pill are, I don't know either; I would need to wait until I can buy one in the future to see," Ma Hongjun shook his head.

The alchemy technology of Douluo Continent was very trashy.

It was impossible for it to compare to his own Phoenix Alchemy Technique.

Zhuqing ate the Blue Silver Pill.

The next second, a blue light flashed within her body, and her body was filled with a great amount of power! The lost physical strength and soul power were both rapidly recovering to their peak.

This terrifying recovery speed exceeded Zhuqing's expectations, making her shocked beyond measure once again! The man before her was not only the same age as her, but his strength was also so powerful, and he even knew the art of alchemy; he was simply the most perfect man in her heart!

He was countless times stronger than that cowardly fiancé Dai Mubai, whom she had never met and who only knew how to escape! To be honest, her heart was truly moved.

"Do you want to learn? I can teach you!" "If you are willing, you can follow me to learn. I will not only teach you the alchemy technique but also the weapon forging technique, and I will make you become stronger in a short period of time."

Seeing that the timing was right, Ma Hongjun started from this point.

"Let me consider it. This came too suddenly, and I cannot give you an answer for the moment."

"Moreover, I came here this time because there is one thing I want to confirm. There is a person I must meet..."

Zhuqing was moved, but she had not forgotten her original intention for coming to the Heaven Dou Empire; she wanted to see that cowardly fiancé, Dai Mubai.

"If you don't mind, I can go with you. If you encounter trouble, I can also help you," Ma Hongjun said slowly, with his arms crossed over his chest.

He would not watch a woman who was about to be in his hands be sent away.

"I have already troubled you once..." Zhuqing was a bit embarrassed.

"It's fine. I have been training in the forest for quite a while, and I happen to be going out. This time, I plan to go sell some Pill and implements," Ma Hongjun said.

"Alright, let's go together then." Zhuqing nodded; in her heart, she also wanted to spend more time with Ma Hongjun.

Even she herself did not know that, unknowingly, her heart had already been hooked away by Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun and Zhuqing walked side by side, occasionally stealing glances at Zhuqing's figure, especially that rule-breaking, oversized bosom that exceeded her age, which was particularly pleasing to the eyes.

Having been in the forest for so long, even seeing a female would give him feelings, let alone such a super great beauty as Zhuqing.

"That... what you just said about the weapon forging technique, what is it?" Zhuqing heard it for the first time: "Is it casting?"

In her memory, she recalled Gengjin City of the Star Luo Empire, and that Godly Craftsman Lou Gao, the city lord of Gengjin City.

That place was famous for forging and casting.

Many Soul Guidance Devices came from there, and the quality was very good.

"Yes, you can think of it that way, it's just that my methods and techniques are slightly, just a tiny bit, more advanced than theirs," Ma Hongjun nodded.

The two chatted while leaving the forest.

During this period, Zhuqing came to understand Ma Hongjun even more.

"If you don't mind, you can just call me Hongjun, and I'll call you Zhuqing, how about that?" When the two left the forest and arrived at Suotuo City, it was already afternoon.

The two looked for several inns, but all said there was only one room left; with the intention of continuing to look, they strolled around the city.

Zhu Zhuqing felt this form of address was a bit intimate, but she did not dislike it; after chatting for this entire day, she discovered that Ma Hongjun was particularly to her taste.

However, hindered by her own status and the marriage alliance behind her, her heart was very conflicted.

If not for this constraint, perhaps she would choose Ma Hongjun to be her fiancé.

"Mm." Zhuqing's voice was very soft, and she felt a bit shy.

Suddenly, Ma Hongjun stopped his footsteps and saw a general store not far away.

"I remember there is a very precious metal inside these two shops; this thing is a good material for artifact refining."

Ma Hongjun thought to himself: "I wonder if it has been taken by Tang San in this current timeline?"

Pushing open the door, the two of them walked inside.

There were three people inside here.

One of the men was lying on a rocking chair, while the other two, a man and a woman, were bargaining with this man over a golden stone.

Seeing this person, Ma Hongjun was stunned for a moment; his memory corridor reached back six years, to when it was precisely this person who helped him awaken his martial soul.

Indeed, this fellow was Flender.

He had changed a lot now; he wondered if the other party would still recognize him?

As soon as the two of them entered, the three people in the room were all stunned and turned their gazes over one after another.
