Chapter 285: Xiaonu’s Body Constitution Isn’t Like a Human

“How do I refine this celestial stone?”

Jiang Yi sat alone in his own cultivation room and was at a loss. He knew of the method of refining the celestial stone. The problem was that… his dantian had been transformed. Would it still be able to refine the celestial stone?

There was a main reason why he wanted to return to Mt. Spirit Beast College and seclude in cultivation. He wanted to figure out the nine strange star spheres in his dantian.

The celestial stone contained tremendous energy. If his dantian didn’t transform, all of these would be absorbed by the purple mansion. Without the purple mansion, where was the dantian going to store all this energy?

“I will give it a try!”

Jiang Yi mulled for a long period of time and finally decided to try before thinking about anything else. Since the black essence force could be stored in the nine star spheres, the energy of the celestial stones should also be stored within the star spheres.

“Buzz!”

The Fire Spirit Pearl lit up as he took out a jade box. Jiang Yi opened the jade box and took out the white pearl-like celestial stone while the black essence force in his body gushed out to wrap around the celestial stone.

“Huh…”

The instant the black essence force wrapped around the celestial stone, the entire stone flashed with white light. Pure and tremendous energy immediately flowed into Jiang Yi’s body through his hand. It crashed right into his meridians like a powerful flood surging violently.

“Such incredible energy!”

Jiang Yi didn’t dare to be distracted as he devoted his concentration to guide this energy along in his meridians and quickly allow it to rush into his dantian. With such power in this energy, it might just burst open his meridians.

The energy quickly entered his dantian, but Jiang Yi was confused about how to guide it from here. Right at this moment, Jiang Yi was shocked when something strange happened.

The nine star spheres in his dantian lit up concurrently as he began to automatically absorb the pure energy in his dantian, and the absorption speed was very fast.

“This…”

Jiang Yi was frightened. When he refined the Fire Lingzhi in the past, it required a special refinement method. This celestial stone also had a refinement method that required the purple mansion to assist in transmuting it. Right now, these nine star spheres didn’t require any transmutation and just simply absorbed the energy directly?

Jiang Yi immediately looked within the nine star spheres and noticed that that energy was all automatically transmuted into black essence force. He was overwhelmed with shock and invigorated at the same time.

It was rather troublesome to refine the celestial stone. According to Qian Wanguan’s information, the refinement and transmuting of the celestial stone had to be done little by little; hence, every celestial stone required around half a month to be completely refined. Right now, Jiang Yi didn’t even need to transmute anything as it was all done by the nine star spheres. This did save him a lot of trouble and didn’t need to have any concern as he could directly refine the celestial stone and just constantly guide the energy into his dantian.

Despite the case, Jiang Yi still proceeded with caution and didn’t dare to refine it too quickly. The energy of the celestial stone was tremendous—with his low cultivation stage, his meridians might be too weak and not be able to endure such a brute force.

The celestial stone was very small, but Jiang Yi would only refine a little at a time, almost at one ten-thousandth a portion. It took him five days before he completed the refinement of the first celestial stone.

“This celestial stone’s energy is indeed too massive. A single stone will probably take the previous me half a year to completely refine.”

Jiang Yi was gasping in surprise as he took a look within the nine star spheres and realized there was much more black essence force within them. He was troubled at the same time. After refining so much energy, he was at a complete loss of which cultivation stage he was at. He was totally different from other martial artists.

“Forget it. I shall exit from seclusion and go test my strength in the technique-practicing room!”

After fasting for five days and five nights, his body still received replenishment from the energy after all the cultivation and wasn’t too weak. Before he went in seclusion, he consumed a stamina replenishing elixir, but he was still crying with hunger.

When Jiang Yi walked out of the cultivation room, Jiang Xiaonu—who was staring blankly in the living hall—saw Jiang Yi and jumped up immediately as she spoke with bewilderment, “Young Master, why are you out of seclusion already? Didn’t you say it will be ten days?”

Jiang Yi pickup the tea on the table and drank a few cups before he waved his hand and said, “Xiaonu, don’t ask so much; help me get some food.”

“Alright Young Master. Please wait for a moment.”

Jiang Xiaonu walked out quickly and brought in some plain congee while speaking with concern, “Young Master, you better not eat oily food for now. Have some congee to fill up your stomach first.”

Jiang Yi took up the congee and wolfed it down. It was only after three big bowls of congee that the starving sensation in his stomach wore off.

“Shh-shh-shh!”

Footsteps could be heard from outside as Qian Wanguan and Jiang Yunhai walked in. Qian Wanguan’s eyes lit up as he exclaimed, “Wa! Boss, you are really a god, huh? Actually out of seclusion in just five days? Have you refined the first celestial stone?”

Jiang Yi nodded before he turned to look at Jiang Yunhai and asked, “Wanguan, have you asked Master Liao about restoring my grandfather’s dantian?”

Qian Wanguan shook his head while Jiang Yunhai laughed lightly. “Young Lord, it is okay! This old servant is already at such an age and won’t live for long. Even if I cultivated, I will not have any great achievements. It is fine even if my dantian cannot be restored.”

“Sigh.”

Jiang Yi let out a subtle sigh. A martial artist would become a useless person with their dantian crippled. Not even a heaven-tier healer could do anything. It seemed like Jiang Yunhai wouldn’t be able to recover in this lifetime.

“Xiaonu, bring Grandfather back to his room for a rest. I have something to discuss with Boss.”

Qian Wanguan suddenly spoke while Jiang Xiaonu looked at him and was astonished, but she obediently helped Jiang Yunhai into his room. Jiang Yi looked at Qian Wanguan and saw his serious expression before he asked, “Did something happen?”

“Nothing major. Let’s go out and talk.”

Qian Wanguan walked outside the courtyard before he spoke softly to Jiang Yi, “Boss, there is something I am hiding from you. Several months ago when Master Liao was giving treatment to Xiaonu, he said something like… Xiaonu’s body constitution isn’t like a human. In other words, her body constitution is entirely different from this continent’s human, and he asked us to beware.”

“What does it mean?”

Jiang Yi blinked his eyes with suspicion as he asked with while he was puzzled, “How is Xiaonu different from a human? Where is she different from other girls? Even if she isn’t like a human, aren’t there many special races in the continent? It shouldn’t matter even if Xiaonu is of a special race, right?”

“Not that!”

Qian Wanguan replied while he was rather dazed. “I do not know what is exactly different. But from Master Liao’s meaning, it felt like Xiaonu isn’t a normal human and isn’t a special race either. Sigh… I don’t understand either. Why not go ask Master Liao yourself?”

“There is no need to ask!”

Jiang Yi laughed and said, “I do not care what kind of race Xiaonu is. She will always be my little sister, and even if we are to assume that… she is a demonic beast, so what? I am able to be friends with the little fox, too, so you don’t have to bother about this issue.”

“Oh, okay.”

Qian Wanguan nodded. Jiang Xiaonu grew up together with Jiang Yi while relying on each other, and they were just like blood-related siblings. Let alone Master Liao’s statement—even if Xiaonu was really of a special race… with Jiang Yi and her relationship, the two of them wouldn’t bother about it.

“Let’s stop here. I want to go test my strength and come back to continue refining the celestial stone.”

Jiang Yi waved his hand and totally didn’t mind as he headed straight for the south courtyard. There was a technique-practicing room in the south courtyard which could easily test the strength of a martial artist, which would accurately judge a martial artist’s strength.

“Test what strength? Wouldn’t you know your strength based on your cultivation stage?” Qian Wanguan scratched his head and walked into his room while looking at a loss.
