Chapter 101 - 101: Learning the Hundred Arts of Cultivation
“What are you thinking about?” He Qingge gently touched Lil Butterfly.
Lil Butterfly was his first contracted spirit beast.
“With this puppet Lil Butterfly, it can represent you in the outside world. When the time comes, it will bear the danger.” He Qingge voiced his thoughts.
Lil Butterfly was touched.
It turned out that its master cared about it so much that he even specially created a substitute for it to share the damage.
“Master, sob…
Lil Butterfly was so touched that it cried. For the sake of its master, it had to cultivate harder.
Time passed quickly.
Talisman crafting, alchemy, and puppetry.
Unknowingly, He Qingge had already mastered three cultivation skills.
It was the same after that. He Qingge stepped up his cultivation in artifact refinement and array formations.
If he could learn more, he would learn more. Who knew when he might be able to use it?
The sect’s internal cultivation was quite stable. There was no danger, and no one came to find trouble.
He was already a legacy disciple, so there were not many people who dared to look for him.
“Senior Fang Yu is dead.” While He Qingge was studying the formation, Li Le reported.
“So what if he’s dead? Scatter his ashes far away.” He Qingge nodded.
Fang Yu was the person who had taken over his position in the imperial beast garden at that time. He had been sent to mine, and in the end, he died.
“He dug out this ore from the mine, then his blood essence was instantly sucked dry and he lost his life.”
Li Le said as he presented the jade box in his hand.
He Qingge put down the formation plate in his hand after hearing that.
He opened the jade box and found a piece of black metal inside.
There were strange patterns on it. The metal was completely black and looked rather heavy.
He Qingge took the box and felt a weight on his hand.
He carefully examined it with his eyes and did not find anything unusual.
“You picked it up and put it in this jade box? Did anyone else come into contact with it? Are there any other phenomena?”
He Qingge asked cautiously.
Li Le said, “I rushed over when I heard about this. At that time, no one dared to touch this piece of metal. After all, Fang Yu was directly sucked dry by it.
“I found some ordinary miners to see if they would be sucked dry by this piece of metal. In the end, I didn’t expect them to be completely fine.
“I also tried it and found that there was no problem.
“Others saw Fang Yu being sucked dry, but I can’t be sure of the exact situation.
I’m only telling you what I heard.”
He Qingge looked at the strange metal in front of him. There was no information about it in his mind.
He Qingge had memorized all the information about the spirit herbs and the strange objects in the sect.
However, he had no information about the metal in front of him at all.
Moreover, he had already reached the basic level of refining weapons and could forge a first-tier magic tool. He already knew quite a lot about materials like this metal.
“What kind of mine was he digging?”
“Black gold.”
He Qingge pondered for a moment. The metal in front of him indeed had many similarities with black gold.
“Is there any other news?”
“No.” Li Le shook his head.
“Alright, let’s put this matter aside first! Help me prepare some supplies.”
He Qingge gave him a list of the materials he needed for talismans, pills, and magic tools. He asked him to buy them.
He threw him a storage bag filled with spirit coins.
He placed the jade box on the table and did not blindly take out the metal inside.
He put on golden gloves in advance to isolate himself from unknown dangers.
He picked up a tree branch from the ground and kept moving the black metal in front of him.
“Could this be the mother metal of the black gold mine?” He Qingge guessed.
However, according to the records in the sect’s Record of Rarities, the black gold essence was not like this.
Could it be that the black gold had mutated?
It triggered a wisp of flame and began to burn the black metal in front of him.
He picked up the hammer that he used to refine magic tools and continuously smashed it on the black metal.
He used different methods to determine the data of this piece of black metal.
Strength, toughness, hardness, melting point, special effect…
Soon, He Qingge detected that the black metal in front of him was indeed similar to black gold.
There was a high possibility that it was a mutated species.
It had a special function, which was to absorb blood essence to strengthen itself. However, every time it absorbed blood, it would take a long time to consolidate and fuse.
He planned to fuse this piece of black gold into Lil Butterfly’s puppet.
After learning the puppet art and the refining art, He Qingge realized that there were many aspects that could be used together.
He even carved many arrays on the puppet.
He made many Lil Butterfly puppets, and each puppet was engraved with a small independent array. They were not strong enough to use alone, and many puppets stacked together to form an overlapping array.
The more he studied and thought about it, the more he would discover the similarities between them.
It was like the various courses in his previous life.
History, geography, politics, and so on were all interconnected.
He Qingge also placed many talismans in these little butterfly puppets.
If something unexpected happened, these little butterfly puppets could fly like self-destruct bombs and launch the most fatal attack on the enemy.
The damage from the array formation, the damage from the puppet’s self-destruction, and the damage from the talisman inside was far greater than what one would expect.
It could be considered a trump card that He Qingge had randomly fiddled with.
He Qingge had placed the most powerful spell formation on these little butterfly puppets, which should be a sound amplification spell formation.
Lil Butterfly’s voice talent was quite powerful, and it had also learned the Berating technique.
At that time, these small butterfly puppets would gather together and form a powerful sound amplification array. Coupled with the support of the Berating technique, its power would be greatly exerted.
He Qingge also learned many cultivation skills, such as carving, painting, music…
Each of them had their own unique abilities, which allowed He Qingge to broaden his horizons and be able to integrate these things together.
As He Qingge cultivated the Great Wisdom Scripture, the more things he learned, the brighter the Wisdom Scripture Divine Wheel in his mind would shine. The wheel would also become bigger, and Qingge’s wisdom increased.
In just one or two years, He Qingge had already mastered all the cultivation skills he had learned.
All of his cultivation skills had reached the peak of the first rank.
With a dull rumble, the cauldron in front of He Qingge emitted waves of smoke.
There was a very rich medicinal fragrance in the smoke.
The lid of the medicinal cauldron was knocked off by the powerful pressure inside.
A round and plump pill slowly floated out under the pressure.
Three Yuan Pill was a level-two pill that could condense the essence, Qi, and spirit in the body. The medicinal effect was quite gentle, and even a cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm could take it..
