The Way of The Dao

* GIGGLES!!! *

Funny and happy laughs could be heard among the clouds when some shadows passed through them.

Qing Sha laughed happily as she felt the air currents hit her body while she was being carried in Ling Tian's arm.

Ling Tian smiled tenderly at the sight of Qing Sha. But seeing one of her hands clinging tightly to his clothes while the other hand moved in the air to touch the clouds, he could not help but laugh.

All his female disciples did the same; they would seem brave and confident, but one of their hands would always hold on to him tightly. His male disciples were more courageous and even wanted him to let them go and then catch them to feel better the winds.

Ling Tian flew with Qing Sha for a long time. Lan Yin also joined them and flew alongside Ling Tian and Qing Sha.

Both girls played in the clouds for a while, Ling Tian pampering Qing Sha.

After a while, they went to where the girls were.

Yun Mengxin had successfully faced her divine damnation and continued to calmly stabilize her acquired cultivation.

Ling Tian also learned that the others had returned to Star City.

The young man and his mother also returned. Long Cheng knew that these people were related to Ling Tian, so he would arrange a space for them so that the woman could recover peacefully until she woke up.

"Qing Sha greets her Master."

Once on the ground, Qing Sha immediately knelt and kowtowed three times to Ling Tian.

Ling Tian laughed within himself as he realized that Lan Yin had told her about the worship ritual.

Qing Sha took a cup of tea that Lan Yin had given her and gave it to Ling Tian as a sign of respect, just as Lan Yin had told her.

Ling Tian smiled warmly and drank the tea calmly.

Qing Sha looked at him with bright, happy eyes.

"Well, Shasha, now I'll show you what you need to cultivate." Ling Tian finished and explained what Qing Sha did not yet know. He also added about what it means to be a cultivator and what she could do in the future.

Lan Yin had explained many things, which saved time, and Qing Sha easily understood everything.

Ling Tian let Qing Sha become familiar with feeling the Chi before imparting the immortal chant that suited her special physique.

Lan Yin also sat close to Qing Sha and continued to cultivate.

Remembering the ring he had taken from the Sect Master of the other world, Ling Tian took it out and checked it.

"I didn't expect this guy to have Spirit Crystals too..."

Ling Tian was surprised to see that this Sect Master had so many things in his storage ring!

Low and medium level spirit weapons, as well as some types of jades and special metals.

He even had some Golden Core grade pills!

Although this was trivial to Ling Tian since any cultivator in the Immortal World would have many things, he was still a little surprised because it came from a lower small world!

"Women's Furnace Techniques..." Ling Tian found books that contained the technique to make women become furnaces and then absorb their cultivations.

Ling Tian burned all that. He hated this kind of thing.

"With these materials, I will be able to build a deep formation to increase the cultivation faster..." Ling Tian looked at the materials and it was enough to build a powerful formation.

"This is..." Ling Tian was surprised when he looked at a pink plant in one of the bottles: "A Spirit Iris!"

This was the main ingredient to create the pill that could heal Qing Sha's skin!

"Little Shuiruo, do you have medicinal herbs with you?" Ling Tian turned to see Mu Shuiruo.

Mu Shuiruo nodded and took out all the herbs she had with her.

"I... I barely managed to create a Golden Core grade pill..." Mu Shuiruo whispered sheepishly.

Ling Tian blinked several times in surprise when he heard Mu Shuiruo.

At this point, he remembered that Mu Shuiruo had managed to create such a pill a few days ago.

She even had an enlightenment and was able to break through to the Stage of the Nascent Soul!

Taking her soft and delicate hand, Ling Tian smiled with love and pride and said, "Little Shuiruo, you are a genius, much more outstanding than your husband. That you can manage to create a pill of such a level in such a short time, means that you are a genius in Alchemy. Even for me, it took more than a year to make a Golden Core grade pill!"

He said softly, making the tender, beautiful woman smile.

Mu Shuiruo's talent for Alchemy was truly amazing!

Ling Tian had the same thought as Yun Mengxin: if this wasn't a real talent, then what was?

Mu Shuiruo finally laughed, feeling happy at Ling Tian's praise.

"I had many doubts and problems in the process when I tried to create the Golden Core grade pills..."

Mu Shuiruo proceeded to tell all her doubts to Ling Tian.

Ling Tian listened carefully and after Mu Shuiruo finished, he took out his special cauldron.

"The first thing we have to do, is to refine the herbs we will use..."

Ling Tian threw away the medicinal herbs, teaching Mu Shuiruo and giving her all his advice and experiences while they went back to making pills.

Mu Shuiruo sat down and observed in detail and seriousness what Ling Tian was doing.

The 5 herbs were gently refined, becoming liquid after a while.

Ling Tian went slowly so that he could better explain to his beloved woman.

"Once you have all the herbs refined, you will have to put them together gently and without rushing..."

The medicinal liquids were gently blended into the cauldron, beginning to combine with each other while the fire power and spiritual energy filled the cauldron.

"Before, you used your Cultivation Essence to control, but now that you have entered the Stage of the Nascent Soul, with your Consciousness Sea it will be much easier for you since you will have Spiritual Energy to be able to control each of the herbs and liquids without you getting tired or exhausted..."

Mu Shuiruo nodded seriously.

That beautiful and holy face full of seriousness made Ling Tian lose himself for a moment and almost ruined his own refinement. If it weren't for his subconscious reaction, he would have ruined the medicinal herbs.

The cauldron became agitated when the Energy within it burst, combining all the refined liquids.

The other girls who were cultivating approached and also paid attention to what Ling Tian was doing.

"You can also make arrays on the cauldron to make it easier or even make better quality pills."

Ling Tian made a seal with one of his hands and some runes glowed over the cauldron, starting to shake more when the energy inside expanded and shone.

An exquisite fragrance began to emerge from the cauldron!

This soft and exquisite smell made the women breathe deeply and be enchanted.

* Boom! *

The cauldron shook strongly when the pill was being created!

Ling Tian poured a little more of his Immortal Essence when the liquids were finally combined into one.

A beautiful, fragrant pill had been created!

This pill glowed bright pink.

Ling Tian smiled and took the pill in his hands: "Once you can easily create a pill without much effort and with few ingredients, you can create several pills in one round with the necessary ingredients."

The medicine pill was put in a jade bottle. It would later be given to Qing Sha to refine it.

Mu Shuiruo nodded and closed her eyes for a moment while she meditated. Then she pulled out her own cauldron that Ling Tian had left her earlier.

This cauldron was low level and very basic.

Although Ling Tian could give Mu Shuiruo a better grade cauldron, he wanted Mu Shuiruo to be able to understand the basics and learn much better with low-level resources.

The mistake of most Alchemists is that they always depend on a cauldron. If a cauldron is high grade they would never fail, as it is so easy to succeed. But once that "Master Alchemist" did not have a good cauldron, they would be no different than a novice.

And now, Ling Tian nodded and knew that Mu Shuiruo was much better than him in terms of talents for alchemy.

If the Immortal World knew that someone had managed to create a Golden Core grade pill using only such a low-level cauldron, they would be stunned and shocked and would look for that person to have relationships and in the future be able to ask for high-level pills.

Ling Tian had a premonition that Mu Shuiruo could reach an unimaginable peak in the Alchemy way!

Once Mu Shuiruo could create a Nascent Soul grade pill, he would give her a much better cauldron.

Mu Shuiruo used the few herbs she had and began to use her Spiritual Energy as well, drastically improving her mastery and understanding. Ling Tian observed and secretly nodded to Mu Shuiruo's mastery.

"Master!" Lan Yin approached and took out a bottle of jade: "Yinyin also managed to create a pill!"

A bright smile but one that contained a trace of embarrassment and expectation adorned her pretty face.

"Although not as pretty as the ones the big sis makes..." Lan Yin whispered with embarrassment.

Ling Tian was surprised when he looked at the pill Lan Yin had created.

This pill was clearly something ordinary, but he could see the effort Lan Yin had made by looking at its surface and constitution!

"Yinyin is also a smart girl!" Ling Tian smiled and patted Lan Yin's head: "That you were able to create a pill at your age is very surprising. You are better than your Master."

Lan Yin laughed happily but then shook her head and said, "But my Master is the best!"

Ling Tian laughed tenderly at this and returned the pill.

"Yinyin gives you this!" Lan Yin did not accept it and wanted Ling Tian to keep it.

"Okay, hehe." Ling Tian gave her a sweet kiss on her forehead before he stored the pill in his Little World.

"What grade of pill could you create before?" Tang Wanying asked after observing how easily the herbs were refined in Mu Shuiruo's cauldron.

"Since I had no support or help while traveling around the world, I had to experiment and create my own pills myself." Ling Tian recalled about his level of pills: "The last pill I had managed to create was the Supreme Grade, although it took me many attempts..."

Ling Tian smiled bitterly as he remembered all the precious herbs wasted in the process. But in the end, he found a way to make it happen!

The girls were increasingly surprised.

This man of theirs really was so amazing and capable in everything.

"And you said you could also create and refine items..." Zhang Xinya remembered what Ling Tian had once said and, recalling that Lan Yin's sword was also refined by him, she asked.

Ling Tian nodded and added, "You could say that I am a Grand Master of the Forgery and also of the Formation... I had to experience it for myself with what I had in my hand at that time...". Ling Tian shrugged his shoulders, expressing that it was all about self-knowledge.

Although the jade tablets and ancient scrolls left in that skeleton's storage ring contained the information for all three areas, Ling Tian still had to experience it without receiving any advice and only based on the information at hand.

The girls were even more surprised.

If creating a pill was something complicated, they couldn't imagine what it would be like to refine items and make the formations.

Ling Tian had so much knowledge and experience!

They really had a great, powerful and unique man...

Ling Tian watched his women in more and more detail, noticing the changes in their bodies.

* Woosh! *

The sound of the cauldron containing energy and creating a pill was heard, interrupting what Ling Tian was about to say.

"You really have better talent than me, little Shuiruo." Ling Tian said when he looked at the pill in his woman's hands.

Mu Shuiruo smiled happily when she was able to create a Golden Core grade pill after receiving guidance from Ling Tian!

"Thank you!" Mu Shuiruo went over and kissed Ling Tian's cheek, blushing with happiness.

Ling Tian was happy and proud of her.

Yun Mengxin, Long Yuyin, Tang Wanying and Zhang Xinya smiled happily too at Mu Shuiruo's achievement. Lan Yin looked at her big sister with a big smile as well.

"I will create a formation for you to cultivate faster." Ling Tian said later, earning a big smile of expectation from Long Yuyin, who wanted to increase her cultivation faster.

"I will go and get more herbs." Mu Shuiruo commented at once. She had run out of materials.

Long Cheng always sent out to collect all the spirit and medicinal herbs they could find for Mu Shuiruo since he knew about the pills and their importance to them.

Mu Shuiruo just needed to go and find them and keep practicing and improving her abilities.

"I will go with you!" Tang Wanying said.

Mu Shuiruo nodded happily.

"Wait."

When both girls were about to leave, Ling Tian turned to them.

"Can you tell the boy to come?" Ling Tian referred to the boy with his mother, "And also to Shen and Jingtian."

Tang Wanying and Mu Shuiruo nodded and flew off to Star City.

Ling Tian could go and fetch the three boys, but he had to keep an eye on the Celestial Spring Yin Lake so that nothing strange would happen to his two mothers in-law and that girl.

Ling Tian soon remembered that he had thrown that defense artifact into his Little World that he took from the Sect Master when he killed him.

Since Mu Shuiruo and Tang Wanying would return later so that he could check their bodies and those of Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin as well, Ling Tian decided to check the item better.

Searching in his Little World, he quickly found it and took it out.
