After refining his first pill, Xiao Yun did not revel in pride, but instead continued to refine pills with the experience he had just gained.

“Just then when I was refining the Congealing Moon Zoysia, my flames were too intense, causing it to lose its medicinal properties, resulting in these impurities. I need to stay calmer this time and not let that G.o.dd.a.m.n bird affect my mood. I need to follow the Violet Flame Pill Principles and slowly improve,” Xiao Yun mumbled to himself. He put in the first medicinal ingredient and this time, because he felt calmer, it went much smoother. When it saw that Xiao Yun’s first attempt at pill refining had succeeded, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow did not continue to nag him.

2 days pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, and Xiao Yun had refined all of the medicinal ingredients. Now, on the table, there was a bottle of medicinal pills.



“Genius, what a genius,” the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow marvelled as it almost started salivating. “Lil Yun, continue working hard; my life is in your hands. Haha, I’m really looking forward to the day you become a Pill Master!”

“Your life is in my hands?” Xiao Yun rolled his eyes. “It’s not like you’re a beauty or anything.”

“This fellow values lovers more than friends,” the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow said disdainfully.

Xiao Yun shrugged as he picked up the bottle of medicinal pills and left. There were still some medicinal ingredients for Pure Essence Pills, but he wasn’t in a rush to refine them. This was because Pure Essence Pills were much harder to refine than Innate Pills, and he had to take it slowly. Only when he had enough experience would he attempt to refine them. Otherwise, it would be a waste of medicinal ingredients.

Xiao Yun left to find his Second Uncle to give him these pills.

“What?! These are all Innate Pills refined by you?” Xiao Hai was dumbfounded.

“Mm.” Xiao Yun nodded his head, saying, “You can sell the ones of ordinary quality and keep the better ones for people from our family. That way, we’ll be able to develop quite a few Innate realm cultivators in the future generations to support the family.”

“Mm.” Xiao Hai nodded. “They’ll definitely do well in the auctions in neighbouring towns.”

Xiao Hai immediately sent people to secretly auction off these medicinal pills and buy more medicinal ingredients.

Xiao Yun then went to the Martial Skills Pavilion to find a new technique to learn.

“Firecloud Palm?” When he saw this Martial Skill, Xiao Yun’s eyes lit up. “I’ve fused with the Violet Flame Martial Spirit, so it would be perfect for me to learn this palm technique. That way, I’ll have another Martial Skill that I can use.” Xiao Yun did not hesitate and brought the manual for this Martial Skill away with him.

This was a Black rank, intermediate level Martial Skill.

The Firecloud Palm technique makes one’s palms like fiery clouds, covering everything under the heavens!

This was the summary of the palm technique. Covering everything under the heavens with one’s palm – what a domineering statement.

In order to learn this palm technique, one needed to open their Fire Meridians to effectively circulate Fire Essence Qi. Xiao Yun followed the steps in the manual, and easily opened one of his Fire Meridians.

After regaining his cultivation speed, Xiao Yun’s comprehension of Martial Skills was also extremely fast.

Very soon, Xiao Yun was able to control the violet flames with great ease.

Standing in his courtyard, Xiao Yun struck out with his palm as a cloud of violet fire shot out, seeming to cover the heavens and the earth.

Whoosh!

As the searing heat rolled out, nearly all of the leaves within the courtyard withered. Luckily Xiao Yun had aimed this palm up to the sky, otherwise, it would have caused great destruction.

“Xiao Yun, you can control variant flames?” When she heard the noise outside, Yan Shi Fei walked out, a surprised expression on her face.

“Mm.” Xiao Yun looked at the charming young woman as he said, “I obtained some variant flames in the Violet Cloud Mountain, which became another Martial Spirit that I can use to refine pills. Don’t worry, I’ll soon be able to refine an antidote pill for you.”

“Really?” Yan Shi Fei looked quite happy. “You’ve obtained a Fire Martial Spirit?” The young woman was incredibly excited, not for herself, but for this youth. She knew what it meant to obtain another Martial Spirit! Because of this, Xiao Yun would become far stronger than anyone else.

“Mm.” Xiao Yun nodded as he held Yan Shi Fei’s hand, saying, “Big sister Shi Fei, not only did I obtain a Fire Martial Spirit, but also a Violet Vine’s soul for you. In future, you can have your own Martial Spirit. Lil Violet, come out.”

“Violet Vine?” Yan Shi Fei’s heart leapt and she felt incredibly excited. This was the Martial Spirit she had wanted this whole time!

“Eh, why’s big brother calling me?” Within Xiao Yun’s sea of consciousness, the little fellow lazily opened its eyes as it spoke.

“Big brother’s going to introduce you to a big sister. You’re going to live with her from now on, alright?” Xiao Yun smiled.

Lil Violet batted its eyelashes as it said sadly, “I don’t want to. I want to stay with big brother. Big brother has milk milk here; I don’t want to leave.”

“Be good, Lil Violet,” Xiao Yun said. “You’re still young, and you still have opportunities to grow. If you fuse with that big sister’s soul, as she becomes more powerful so will you. Perhaps you’ll be able to evolve.”

Xiao Yun did his best to tempt this little fellow, trying to give it away. It was simply too gluttonous, and would always try to eat the dew from his Martial Spirit. He wouldn’t be able to put up with it for too long.

Under Xiao Yun’s persuasion, the little fellow finally gave in unhappily.

“Big brother, you still have to give me milk milk in future,” the little fellow said pitifully.

“I will,” Xiao Yun smiled as he replied.

Following this, Lil Violet reluctantly left Xiao Yun’s sea of consciousness.

There were different ways of fusing with a Martial Spirit: some had to be forced, while others did so willingly which could result in a fusing of their souls.

Most cultivators fused their Martial Spirits forcefully, but Martial Spirits could retaliate, making this process quite difficult. However, wanting a Martial Spirit to willingly fuse was almost a fantasy.

Martial Spirits were generally quite arrogant, and didn’t easily accept fusing with anyone. However, Lil Violet was different – she had lost her home, and was just a child. Her thoughts were pure, and wouldn’t retaliate so easily.

“What a cute Violet Vine.” After seeing Lil Violet, Yan Shi Fei gave a brilliant smile.

Lil Violet immediately jumped onto Yan Shi Fei’s shoulder, crying out, “Big sister, you’re so pretty!” The little fellow’s eyes flashed as it spoke, “You’re as pretty as that big sister who was with big brother. However, that big sister was so violent, and injured big brother, and ‘battled’ with him for a day and a night.”

“What big sister?” Yan Shi Fei felt quite confused.

“Ahem, Lil Violet, don’t speak nonsense,” Xiao Yun felt quite awkward. “Otherwise big brother won’t give you milk milk anymore.”

“Oh.” Hearing this, the little fellow immediately shut its mouth.

“Do you want to be with big sister?” Yan Shi Fei looked at Xiao Yun but did not ask any further. She turned her gaze to the cute little fellow. From the instant she had saw it, she deeply liked it. How great would it be to have a Martial Spirit like this?

The little fellow said, “Mm, but you have to be with big brother because I want to have milk milk.”

“Milk milk?” Yan Shi Fei felt quite confused.

Xiao Yun quickly explained so that Yan Shi Fei would understand. Afterwards, they started to fuse their souls.

This was a very dangerous procedure – if either party had errant intentions, it could affect both of them, and could even cause the weaker party’s soul to scatter, killing them.

However, Lil Violet was very pure, and Yan Shi Fei was very kind. Neither of them had the intention to dominate the other party. They quickly fused, and formed a connection.

“Big sister, I’m coming in,” the little fellow said.

“Mm,” Yan Shi Fei nodded, looking quite serious.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the little fellow flashed with a violet light and flew towards the centre of Yan Shi Fei’s forehead. They were about to open Yan Shi Fei’s sea of consciousness.

This was a difficult procedure – if she couldn’t endure it, the consequences could be severe. Lighter consequences included her mind being affected, while more severe consequences could result in her soul being scattered.

Luckily, Yan Shi Fei had experienced immense pain from the poison in the past, and her willpower was incredibly strong, which helped her endure.

Buzz!

A buzz sounded out as Yan Shi Fei felt a tremble in her mind, as if a new heavens and earth had been opened.

As the buzzing sounded out, she felt dizzy, and her mind suddenly cleared, as she seemed to come to a boundless and vast land. This was evidently Yan Shi Fei’s sea of consciousness.

Whoosh!

Following this, a violet light flashed as the Violet Vine’s soul also entered the sea of consciousness.

“Is this my sea of consciousness?” Yan Shi Fei said with a look of excitement.

The Violet Vine entering this place meant that it had entered her. After their souls had fused, they could reside in one body.

In future, as Yan Shi Fei’s cultivation increased, so would Lil Violet’s strength. Similarly, if Yan Shi Fei was harmed, so would Lil Violet. This was how wonderous the fusing of souls was – it was as if their lives were bound together.

As such, why would Martial Spirits and other souls be willing to be bound to humans? As such, most Martial Spirits would retaliate when a cultivator tried to fuse with them. Yan Shi Fei was quite lucky in that Little Violet did not try to resist at all.

“You succeeded?” Seeing how relaxed Yan Shi Fei looked, Xiao Yun also revealed a big smile, feeling happy for her. He had finally helped her fulfil her wish!

 “I feel like I’m bursting with life.” After fusing with Yan Shi Fei, within the sea of consciousness, Lil Violet’s eyes lit up as it felt incredibly excited. It felt like it had a new body, which was a marvellous feeling.

Because their souls were linked, she knew everything about Yan Shi Fei.

“So big sister likes big brother,” Lil Violet murmured.

Similarly, Yan Shi Fei’s eyes lit up as she also knew about everything about Lil Violet.

“Ling Xi? So he experienced all of that in the Violet Cloud Mountain,” Yan Shi Fei said to herself.

Following this, a tremor pa.s.sed through her heart as a feeling of jealousy arose. However, that feeling was quickly settled.

“Thank you, Xiao Yun.” Yan Shi Fei gave a beautiful smile as she walked towards Xiao Yun.

“It’s all worth it if you’re happy,” Xiao Yun replied.

“Just these feelings for me are enough.” Yan Shi Fei looked at the youth as she said in a soft voice. She said these words to the youth, but also for herself.

After saying this, she couldn’t help but lean in towards the youth and kiss him.

“Is this really happening?” Xiao Yun felt quite startled, feeling incredibly excited. Big sister Shi Fei’s taking the initiative to kiss me?

He looked at Yan Shi Fei, overwhelmed with emotions.

“You need to treat me well in future,” Yan Shi Fei said.

“Of course,” Xiao Yun smiled. “Yan Shi Fei’s such a good person; how could I not?”

“Alright, I won’t impede on your training then.” Yan Shi Fei smiled and went to one side as she watched the youth train.

Bang! Bang!

Xiao Yun continuously trained the Firecloud Palms.

After 2 days of continuous practice, he had grasped the essence of this set of palm techniques.

Yan Shi Fei silently stayed by Xiao Yun’s side the entire time, keeping him company, seeming extremely gentle and affectionate.

However, Xiao Ling’Er was quite depressed that her big brother didn’t seem to be paying much attention anymore.

The girl said to herself, “Wouldn’t it be great if big brother wasn’t together with that woman!” However, she understood that she wouldn’t be able to have her big brother to herself for their entire lives.
