"It’s okay if you can’t rember it all at once. I can repeat it for you. Just listen carefully," said the Third Master.
"No need, Third Master. I have morized the incantation. It’s just that my aptitude is not good, so I may need to try a few more tis," Yuan Ming replied respectfully.
The Third Master was slightly surprised, but since Yuan Ming said so, he didn’t say anything more. He just nodded slightly, indicating that he could start trying.
Sure enough, Yuan Ming rembered the incantation accurately, but he encountered problems when it ca to the specific operation.
When he activated the incantation and covered the storage bag with his mana, a circular array of red runes appeared, emitting a repelling force that pushed back his mana.
Yuan Ming frowned and strengthened his mana, gradually integrating it with the circular array.
However, after a mont, his mana was interrupted again and forced back.
"The restriction on the storage bag is the most basic. Concentrate and focus on controlling your mana while activating the incantation," the Third Master reminded.
Yuan Ming nodded and took a mont to calm himself before continuing to try.
After trying seven or eight tis, he finally succeeded in refining the storage bag.
"Now that you have refined the storage bag, all you need to do is release your mana while lightly touching the bag and think about what you want to take out," the Third Master said again.
Yuan Ming imdiately tried it.
This ti, it went very smoothly. With a swipe of his palm, a translucent red crystal appeared in his hand.
"The process of putting things back is similar. Release your mana while lightly touching the item you want to put back, and use your thoughts to assist," the Third Master nodded in satisfaction and said.
Yuan Ming imdiately followed his instructions. The fire crystal in his hand disappeared in an instant.
The first ti he ca into contact with the storage bag, Yuan Ming couldn’t help but try several tis. It wasn’t until he beca completely familiar with it that he stopped.
"I’ll lend you the spirit beast bag for now. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, try not to put Huo Chan’er in it. It actually prefers to be outside," the Third Master thought for a mont and took out a red cloth bag, throwing it to Yuan Ming.
Yuan Ming quickly caught it.
"The usage of the spirit beast bag is similar to the storage bag, but rember, the storage bag can only store objects, while the spirit beast bag can only store spirit beasts. Don’t confuse them," the Third Master reminded.
"I understand," Yuan Ming nodded.
"Chen Wan, tomorrow you go to the Fire Workshop and inform Fang Ge that Yuan Ming no longer needs to do daily tasks there. Just take good care of Huo Chan’er for the next month," the Third Master instructed.
"Disciple obeys," Chen Wan imdiately responded.
Yuan Ming wanted to say that it wasn’t necessary, but he knew that the Third Master gave him this privilege because he was afraid he wouldn’t take care of Huo Chan’er well, so he didn’t say anything.
After leaving the Third Master’s courtyard, Chen Wan’s gaze towards Yuan Ming gradually changed. Obviously, everything Yuan Ming showed during this visit made her feel amazed.
Combined with the previous miraculous experiences of going from a beast slave to a nad disciple, she dared not underestimate this young man in front of her anymore.
"I didn’t expect you to really succeed," Chen Wan couldn’t help but speak, feeling amazed.
"It’s just luck. Sotis, luck is also a kind of strength," Yuan Ming chuckled and said.
"Look at how proud you are! Taking good care of Huo Chan’er will bring you great benefits in the future. Don’t ss it up," Chen Wan rolled her eyes at Yuan Ming and reminded him unkindly.
Yuan Ming looked at her, smiled and nodded. Her reminder brought a slight warmth to his heart.
After parting ways, Yuan Ming walked back alone. He raised his hand and tapped the storage bag, storing his Green Fish Sword, beast skin, and other items inside.
"This thing is really useful. When can I have my own storage bag?" Yuan Ming couldn’t help but exclaim, feeling light without any burden.
Back at his residence, as soon as Yuan Ming pushed open the door, the fire ferret swiftly darted inside.
It was full of curiosity about this new environnt and jumped around in the house. After a while, it jumped onto Yuan Ming’s bed and burrowed into his bedding.
Yuan Ming smiled and didn’t pay it any attention.
After closing the door, he ca to the edge of the bed and sat cross-legged. The fire ferret quickly crawled out and jumped onto his shoulder once again.
"I’m going to start cultivating now. Don’t disturb ," Yuan Ming instructed, regardless of whether it understood or not.
The fire ferret didn’t care about that and continued to do as it pleased, jumping and running around on him.
It wasn’t until Yuan Ming raised the spirit beast bag in his hand that the little creature jumped off him and onto the table.
Yuan Ming temporarily ignored it and began to ditate and cultivate the Nine Elents Technique.
He hadn’t closed his eyes for long when a chaotic noise broke out. Yuan Ming opened his eyes and saw that the things on the table had fallen all over the place, and the fire ferret was playing with a rolling teacup on the ground.
Helpless, Yuan Ming gave up on cultivation and took out the "Death Moon thod" to read.
He had already morized the contents of the cultivation technique, but the slow progress of his cultivation had always been unacceptable. Occasionally flipping through the book might bring so new insights.
At night, moonlight seeped into the room through the open window. Yuan Ming imdiately got up and walked towards the spot where the moonlight fell.
After a whole afternoon of playing around, the tired fire ferret thought Yuan Ming was going out, so it climbed up and followed him. But it soon saw Yuan Ming sitting down on the ground.
It instantly felt deceived and climbed onto Yuan Ming’s shoulder in anger, continuing to play around.
Yuan Ming had gotten used to it and ignored it. He raised one hand towards the sky and one hand towards the ground, ford the hand seals, and began to cultivate the Death Moon thod.
The bright moonlight enveloped him, emitting a hazy glow.The previously restless Huo Chan suddenly froze, as if it was immobilized. But then, it felt a wave of comfort and slid down from Yuan Ming’s shoulder, quietly lying on his thigh.
Outside the window, the silhouette of a silver cat was hidden in the shadows, with a faint glow circulating in its heterochromatic eyes.
Just as Huo Chan had settled down and closed its eyes to enjoy the comfort, its body suddenly floated up as if lifted by an invisible force, and was thrown to the side.
The little creature was startled and quickly stood up, craning its neck to look around, but found nothing unusual. It could only shake its head and climb back onto Yuan Ming’s thigh.
But as soon as it lay down, its body was once again lifted and thrown to the ground.
Huo Chan was imdiately anxious, circling around Yuan Ming without understanding what was happening. It could only stare at Yuan Ming with its round eyes.
Yuan Ming’s eyes were slightly closed, his expression natural, showing no signs of abnormality.
Huo Chan shook its head and climbed back onto Yuan Ming’s thigh, this ti keeping its eyes open, looking around to find out who was playing tricks.
The next mont, it watched itself being lifted into the air and thrown to the ground.
Fear filled Huo Chan’s small eyes. If it could speak, it would probably be shouting "I’ve seen a ghost".
The commotion woke Yuan Ming from his cultivation.
He frowned and pondered for a mont, then tentatively asked, "Are you nearby?"
Over the past few days, he had vaguely sensed that the silver cat seed to be near him, but it had never shown itself in front of him.
After waiting for a long ti without a response, Yuan Ming said again, "I have a question to ask, can we et?"
The surroundings were quiet, with only the chirping of insects coming from outside the window.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming knew that the mysterious silver cat would not appear. He could only shake his head helplessly and continue to ditate.
The little fire marten looked around a few tis, then carefully approached Yuan Ming. This ti, it didn’t climb onto his leg, but lay down next to him, not daring to close its eyes to sleep.
After waiting for a long ti without any invisible force bothering it, it gradually closed its eyes and fell asleep.
......
Ti flew by, and the end of the month finally arrived.
Early the next morning, Yuan Ming went to the Fire Workshop, with the fire marten still lying on his shoulder.
Over the past half month, Yuan Ming had not done as the Three Caves Master had said. He still ca to the Fire Workshop every day, but he no longer sifted materials. Instead, he lit a fire and continued to refine embryos.
By now, he still couldn’t achieve the goal of swinging the hamr a thousand tis in a row, but he could already do it four hundred tis.
For so reason, Huo Chan’s lively nature seed to have cald down a lot. It followed Yuan Ming all day, inseparable from him. The other disciples had gone from being surprised at first to being used to it, and now they took it for granted.
When Fang Ge saw Yuan Ming, he didn’t watch from a distance as usual, but ca straight to him.
"Your basic contribution points and basic cultivation thod have been issued. Give your waist tag," Fang Ge said straightforwardly.
Yuan Ming was delighted and imdiately took off his waist tag and handed it over.
After Fang Ge took it, he quickly returned it and took out a smooth white bone piece and handed it to him.
The white bone piece was warm and translucent, looking a bit like jade, but Yuan Ming could see the fine lines on it that belonged only to bone. He looked at the black runes engraved on it and asked, "Brother, what is this?"
"This is a bone slip, which records our basic cultivation thod, the ’Biluo Gong’. With this, you don’t need to practice the ’Blood Qi thod’ anymore. That thod is not very useful, this one is better," Fang Ge said, knowing Yuan Ming’s background and kindly advising him.
"How do I use this?" Yuan Ming asked, rubbing the white bone piece a few tis.
"Put the bone slip close to your forehead and feel it with your divine sense, and you can see the content of the cultivation thod inside," Fang Ge said.
Yuan Ming nodded and was about to put the bone piece on his forehead.
"Hey, not here, go back to your place, calm your mind, and then study it carefully," Fang Ge quickly stopped him.
"Why is that?" Yuan Ming asked in confusion.
Was it necessary to cleanse and ditate just to look at a cultivation thod?
