As an elixir used to aid cultivation, the Minor Origin Elixir contains denser Spiritual Qi than the outside world. Consuming it can increase cultivation speed, making it a highly coveted elixir among all martial practitioners.
In Clear River City, there are hundreds of thousands of ordinary martial practitioners who find it extremely difficult to obtain even one Minor Origin Elixir.
However, members of martial families can receive one Minor Origin Elixir from their family every few months. The outstanding ones might even get one or two every month.
For families of the level of the three major families, branch members can generally be guaranteed one Minor Origin Elixir per month, while direct descendants and outstanding members can receive five to ten per month.
As for someone like Terra Su, who can treat Minor Origin Elixirs like candy, he is the only one in the entire Clear River City.
Terra Su swallowed the Minor Origin Elixir. The elixir traveled down his esophagus into his stomach, where its medicinal power dissolved, turning into a warm stream that spread throughout his body, nourishing his flesh and meridians, bringing an indescribable comfort.
Taking advantage of the medicinal power, Terra Su began to operate the “Chaotic Immortal Records” to absorb the medicinal power within his body.
The “Chaotic Immortal Records” is not only miraculous in absorbing the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth but also equally miraculous in absorbing medicinal power. Its wonder lies in its ability to absorb all energy one hundred percent, without any waste.
As everyone knows, Spiritual Qi is a form of energy. The wonder of the “Chaotic Immortal Records” is that when it operates to absorb Spiritual Qi, all the Spiritual Qi absorbed into the body can be one hundred percent absorbed and converted into true Qi in the Dantian.
The same goes for absorbing medicinal power. When operating the “Chaotic Immortal Records” to absorb medicinal power, all the medicinal power can be absorbed one hundred percent, without any waste.
Generally speaking, depending on individual physique, martial practitioners in the Inducing Qi Realm can absorb about twenty to fifty percent of the medicinal power after consuming a Minor Origin Elixir, with the rest being wasted.
However, Terra Su can absorb one hundred percent of the medicinal power, which alone gives him an unparalleled advantage.
At this moment, Terra Su calmed his mind and entered a state of focused cultivation.
…
Time flew by.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Terra Su consumed ten Minor Origin Elixirs, and his cultivation level reached the peak of the eighth layer of the Inducing Qi Realm. He was just a step away from breaking through to the ninth layer of the Inducing Qi Realm.
“It’s time to get some fresh air.”
Terra Su knew that improving one’s strength was not just about continuous secluded cultivation. Practical combat and mental state were both indispensable. Therefore, no martial practitioner would lock themselves in a room day and night to operate their cultivation method and absorb Spiritual Qi, as that would only be counterproductive.
In his current situation, it was not suitable to continue cultivating in the room, as it would easily lead to a bottleneck.
At such times, one often needed to leave the seclusion room to seek opportunities for breakthroughs.
“Speaking of which, that hundred-year-old Supreme Yang Herb should be refined into an elixir for my aunt as soon as possible. It seems it’s time to find a good alchemy furnace.”
Terra Su walked out of the courtyard, only to find the Jiang Family mansion decorated with lanterns and streamers, with servants bustling about, making the entire mansion look very busy.
However, unlike before, although these servants were busy, they would at least stop and greet Terra Su with a “Young Master Terra” when they saw him.
Unlike before, when the servants would either ignore Terra Su or point fingers at him.
Terra Su casually grabbed a servant and asked, “Is there a celebration in the mansion?”
The servant glanced at Terra Su. Although Terra Su hadn’t shown up recently, the Jiang Family had been abuzz with discussions about the events of that clan meeting. Terra Su had defeated both Timothy Jiang and Stewart Jiang, two direct descendants, with his eighth-layer Inducing Qi Realm cultivation, drastically changing most people’s opinions of him in the Jiang Family.
After all, in the martial world, geniuses were the most respected and sought after. Terra Su’s ability to defeat Stewart Jiang across realms was enough to prove his formidable martial talent.
The servant respectfully replied, “Young Master Terra, today the Third Master is hosting a banquet for several alchemists from the Alchemy Guild, and all the family members will attend.”
“Hosting a banquet for the Alchemy Guild?”
The servant nodded heavily, unable to hide his joy, “It seems that Young Master Timothy’s alchemy talent has caught the eye of Alchemist Qian from the Alchemy Guild, and he wants to take him as a named disciple. Tonight is the apprenticeship banquet.”
The servant’s words carried a sense of pride, as if he shared in the honor.
Timothy Jiang?
The defeated opponent?
Terra Su chuckled. No wonder the Jiang Family was so jubilant. Alchemists were rare among ordinary martial practitioners, which is why their status was so high.
Moreover, being recognized and taken as a disciple by a formal alchemist from the Alchemy Guild meant a bright future ahead. Timothy Jiang indeed had a stroke of luck.
However, Terra Su had no interest in this and asked, “Where is my aunt?”
At that moment, Sophia Xu and Emma Jiang, mother and daughter, dressed in their finest, walked out of the room opposite.
Sophia Xu saw Terra Su and said, “Little Terra, you came out just in time. Will you join us for tonight’s banquet?”
Terra Su shook his head, “No, I have other matters to attend to.”
Sophia Xu was about to say something when another servant hurriedly approached and said to Terra Su, “Young Master Terra, the Third Master has instructed me to invite you to tonight’s banquet.”
“Robert Jiang?” Sophia Xu asked suspiciously, “Why would he specifically invite Little Terra to the banquet?”
“I don’t know. Anyway, this is the Third Master’s order. I’ve delivered the message.” The servant said and then turned to leave.
Sophia Xu looked at Terra Su and said, “Little Terra, you better not go. Robert Jiang surely has no good intentions.”
Terra Su smiled faintly, “No, I will go.”
“You want to go?” Sophia Xu was confused. Terra Su had just said he wouldn’t go, so why the sudden change of mind?
Terra Su explained, “Last time, Timothy Jiang was humiliated by me in front of everyone. Robert Jiang must be holding a grudge. Now that the alchemists from the Alchemy Guild have taken a liking to Timothy Jiang and want to take him as a disciple, Robert Jiang won’t miss this opportunity. He wants to prove in front of the entire Jiang Family that his son is still a hundred times better than me.”
“In that case, you shouldn’t go. Robert Jiang clearly wants to use you as a foil for Timothy Jiang,” Sophia Xu said.
Terra Su smiled lightly, “If he wants to use me as a foil, let’s see if he has the ability.”
“But, I’ve heard that Timothy Jiang does have some talent in alchemy…” Sophia Xu was worried. While Little Terra was undoubtedly talented in martial arts, she had never heard of him having any alchemy skills.
“Don’t worry, Aunt. Let’s go!” Terra Su’s tone remained calm and composed.
