BXBX NOVEL Chapter 141 - The Last Day
He was panicking about the possibility of demons ambushing their cave because of Elder Fang Yunru and Elder Pan Cheng but Elder Jing already solved the situation.
Thus, his admiration for Elder Jing has only been increased further since it was clear that Elder Jing is an extraordinary person.
Not only could she extort the two sect elders with a calm and collected mind, but she was also able to inspect the situation outside based on their expression.
"Stop praising me already… It should be obvious that I\'m wise," Elder Jing smirked as she left the area, leaving Elder Pao Huang speechless.
\'E-Elder Jing\'s shamelessness also knows no bounds,\' Elder Pao Haung exclaimed inwardly as he walked in the opposite direction of Elder Jing because he still needed to do some scolding to the two pathetic elders.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing returned back to Yang Wei who was still sleeping calmly.
"Wake up Yang Wei, your training is still not over," Elder Jing knocked on Yang Wei\'s head slightly to wake him up.
Yang Wei slowly opened his eyelids and glanced at Elder Jing briefly in confusion.
They were inside a cave and the place is limited for him to practice punching in the sandbag as it would definitely cause the cave to shake.
"Shouldn\'t the training be temporarily halted given our current situation, Elder Jing?" Yang Wei then asked, hoping to be lazy for once.
"Although you can no longer practice the Octane Punch since I\'m afraid that you might cause the cave to collapse entirely, there is no obstacle stopping you from practicing alchemy," Elder Jing showed a bright smile.
Afterward, she retrieved a cauldron from her spatial ring and placed it in front of Yang Wei.
Yang Wei was dumbfounded to realize Elder Jing was a devil when it comes to training.
There was simply no stopping her from training someone no matter the situation or crisis ahead of them.
\'D-Did I make a mistake?\'
Yang Wei pondered inwardly when he recalled that it was him who asked Elder Jing to teach him the Octane Punch and alchemy.
"Hurry up and get up already." Elder Jing said as she used some of her true qi to make Yang Wei sit in a lotus position.
And she continued, "For the pill today that you must refine, it shall be on a similar level as the Qi Rejuvenation Pill."
Elder Jing then began explaining the pill that Yang Wei must refine and decided to show him how it\'s done.
Arranging the necessary ingredients on the ground, Elder Jing started lighting up the cauldron with her flame.
Once the cauldron was heated enough, Elder Jing began to dump the ingredients one by one inside and started extracting the impurities out.
Sometime later, the cauldron started shaking slightly as Elder Jing opened the lid and revealed a dazzling round pill.
"This is called a Qi Strengthening Pill which helps a cultivator increase his strength for a while." Elder Jing said and revealed the pill for Yang Wei to see.
However, she became surprised when Yang Wei was unresponsive toward her.
"Yang Wei?" Elder Jing then asked in concern.
Yang Wei snapped out of his daze and nodded his head, "A-Ah yes, Qi Strengthening Pill right."
Elder Jing didn\'t question further and instead asked if he had watched all of her movements and whether or not he understood how to refine one.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Mhm, I have learned the entire process but I\'m not sure if I can refine one. Also, it would be bad if I fail and cause the cauldron to explode since it would create a chaotic mess in the cave."
Yang Wei said gently, hoping Elder Jing would take notice of this problem and delay the training until they get transported to the outside world.
Alas, Yang Wei\'s hope to slack off was shattered when Elder Jing kindly cast a barrier around them.
"Now that we have this spatial barrier to tank the impact in case the cauldron explodes… you should no longer have any worries right?"
Yang Wei smiled bitterly as he nodded his head.
Afterward, Yang Wei spent the entire time trying to refine the Qi Strengthening Pill.
From seconds to minutes, minutes to hours, hours soon turned into a day and before everyone noticed, there was only a day left for leaving the mysterious realm.
There was constant roaring by the demons from outside but due to the meticulous work done by Elder Jing in concealing their aura, the demons simply passed by the cave multiple times without realizing how many cultivators are in here.
Of course, there were other sects scattered around the forest in hiding and some aren\'t as fortunate as others. They were spotted by the demons with multiple casualties laying everywhere.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei was still in the same area, trying his best to refine the Qi Strengthening Pill.
BOOM!
"Cough, another failure," Yang Wei waved his hand around to disperse the smoke that came out from the exploded cauldron.
"That\'s like your 5th failure and it was always around the merging process that you failed to stabilize the cauldron," Elder Jing exclaimed as she dispersed the smoke with the true qi.
At the same time, she was a bit disappointed to see Yang Wei failing this many times when compared to his success on the Qi Rejuvenation Pill.
Although the Qi Strengthening Pill difficulty was higher than the Qi Rejuvenation Pill, it wasn\'t by a lot.
Hence, Elder Jing was confused as to what the problem was.
"What\'s happening with your alchemy? Is it because of the demons rampaging outside that made your emotion waver?" Elder Jing asked as she re-cast another spatial barrier to strengthen it.
Yang Wei shook his head as the demons were never in his mind. Instead, it was something else.
"My emotion is fine but you seemed to be different. Although you\'re training me right now… I somehow feel like you\'re trying to avoid me." Yang Wei then said with a bitter smile.
