I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors? Chapter 227: Elder Bing — I’ve Made Great Progress

Chapter 227: Elder Bing — I've Made Great Progress

“I know a lot of things! I can attack enemies, defend, assist with weapon refining, alchemy, lighting… I can even roast at!”

The fla spirit spoke with enthusiasm, looking expectantly at the powerful man before it.

“Alchemy.”

Chu Feng’s eyes lit up. “Can you do it automatically?”

The fla spirit: ???

If it had been anyone else, it would’ve roasted them on the spot for saying sothing like that. But recalling what had just happened, it ekly swayed its little body.

“Uh… that, I really can’t do.”

“What a sha.”

Chu Feng looked a bit disappointed. He had hoped this little fla spirit could automate alchemy so he could save himself the trouble. But the creature was still immature—it wasn’t surprising that it hadn’t learned to refine pills on its own yet.

“Then starting tomorrow, I’ll teach you alchemy.”

The fla spirit: ???

Its mind was now filled with one thought: I may not be human, but you’re truly a dog. Who treats a Heavenly Fla like this?

Others who acquire a Heavenly Fla treat it like a priceless treasure. If not revered, it’s at least cultivated with care.

But Chu Feng didn’t care what the fla spirit thought. He said calmly, “Alright, if there’s nothing else, you can return to the box now.”

“M-Master… can I not go back into the box? It’s really uncomfortable in there...” The fla spirit sounded pitiful. It couldn’t fight, couldn’t flee—its only hope was playing the sympathy card.

Chu Feng glanced at an oil lamp nearby. “Then stay in that lamp for now.”

“Yes, sir.”

The fla spirit was still depressed, but as long as it didn’t have to return to the box, it was willing to endure. Chu Feng ignored the creature and instead took out a jade slip, beginning to inscribe his alchemy theories and thods into it.

Ti passed, mont by mont. By the ti Chu Feng finished, he held two jade slips in his hands—both containing detailed alchemy techniques.

Chu Feng looked out the window. Night had already fallen.

He tossed one of the jade slips toward the Turtle Spirit Earth Fla. “This is my supre alchemy technique. I don’t expect you to morize all the contents—just master fire control during pill refinent. Can you do that?”

The fla spirit finally relaxed a little. “That’s not difficult. Give one night, and I’ll give you a satisfactory answer.”

“I knew I didn’t misjudge you,” Chu Feng said with a smile. “Work hard. One day, you’ll be a Heavenly Fla that can refine pills on its own. If you perform well, when I find other flas, I’ll let you devour them.”

His sweet-and-bitter strategy was already second nature.

The fla inside the oil lamp suddenly flared with energy. Its voice beca excited. “I won’t let Master down!”

Chu Feng said nothing, but the smirk on his lips had already taken on the shape of a past-life Dragon King.

Knock, knock, knock...

“Master, may I co in?”

Elder Bing’s voice ca from outside with a knock.

“Co in.”

Chu Feng casually pointed toward the door, and it opened on its own. Looking at Elder Bing standing outside, he said, “No need to call ‘Master’ outside. Just call ‘Young Master,’ like before.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Elder Bing responded softly. Once inside, she noticed the room was especially bright tonight. Though only a single oil lamp was lit, it was as radiant as daylight.

“Young Master, where did you buy this lamp? It looks really nice. I want one too.”

Chu Feng replied, “That’s no ordinary lamp. The wick is the Turtle Spirit Earth Fla.”

Elder Bing: “...”

She imdiately gave up on the idea of getting one for herself.

“Young Master, can you teach the Dao inscriptions now?”

Chu Feng said, “You want to study Dao inscriptions at night?”

Elder Bing replied, “Is that not allowed?”

“It’s not that it’s not allowed,” Chu Feng said, “but not right now. I still have to guide Fang Mu in alchemy. After we leave the Da Yuan Dynasty, I’ll teach you.”

“Thank you, Young Master.”

Elder Bing placed a basin of warm water before Chu Feng. “Young Master, allow to wash your feet. I promise I won’t freeze you this ti.”

“Really?”

Chu Feng still hadn’t forgotten what happened that night.

Elder Bing clearly recalled it as well—her cheeks turned faintly red. “I’ve made great progress since then.”

“Alright, I’ll give it a try.”

Chu Feng put his feet into the basin. Before long, a soft, cool sensation rose around his ankles—a strange but pleasant feeling he couldn't quite describe.

The next afternoon.

Fang Mu returned once more. “Disciple greets Master.”

“No need for formality.”

Chu Feng replied as he casually tossed a jade slip over. “This jade slip contains my Spirit Fla Alchemy thod. Just place it against your forehead, and you’ll naturally absorb its contents.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Fang Mu responded and did exactly as instructed, pressing the jade slip to his forehead.

In no ti, he felt a stream of knowledge enter his mind—lines upon lines detailing the principles and techniques of alchemy.

But after absorbing it, a new problem erged: he had no spirit fla. Or rather, he had not yet subdued one.

The demonic cultivator previously pursued by the royal guards had possessed an Earth Spirit Fla. But its temperature had been far too intense—Fang Mu had rely glanced at it before nearly being scorched alive.

“Finished reading?” Chu Feng asked with a grin.

“Yes, Master. But I’d like to ask for your help with a small problem.”

As he spoke, Fang Mu anxiously dug his toes into the ground—he’d nearly excavated an entire courtyard with his nervous shuffling.

“What problem?”

Chu Feng asked casually. What seed like a headache to Fang Mu was probably sothing he could resolve with the flick of a finger.

“Master, the situation is like this…”

Fang Mu poured out everything he’d been worrying about in full detail.

“That’s it?”

Chu Feng chuckled. “Take out your spirit fla.”

“Yes, sir.”

Fang Mu reached into the storage pouch on his waist and pulled out a small bottle. Carefully, he removed the lid.

Boom!

A surge of blazing fla burst into the air, soaring toward the clouds. It looked like it was about to incinerate the entire courtyard.

Elder Bing stood calmly nearby, unmoving. Yet the chill emanating from her body was enough to make the fla hesitate and freeze in midair.

Chu Feng didn’t even look at it. Instead, he called toward the house, “Xiao Huo, handle it!”

“On it!”

Xiao Huo’s voice echoed in everyone’s sea of consciousness as a streak of fla shot out from Chu Feng’s room.

The Earth Spirit Fla looked at the small wisp approaching—and it was as if it had seen its natural predator. The towering blaze instantly shrank into a tiny bundle, hovering midair and trembling uncontrollably.

Xiao Huo stared at the trembling fla with open disdain. “Master, this kind of low-grade spirit fla isn’t even fit for a dog to eat. Want to just snuff it out?”
