This fishing rod might look very ordinary, but Bei Feng did not have any doubts as to the mysterious powers it held. The name Fusang Wood alone was especially domineering—enough to capture his attention!
"<>: Within the Great Wilderness of the East, there is a heavenly mountain called Sin Jolting Colossal Ram. Atop it, there sat a Fusang Tree with a trunk as tall as 300 li, and leaves like mustard trees'. Beneath the Fusang Tree lay a mountain valley with extremely deep depths. The source of the valley was a boiling river where the Sun descended and rose from daily. It is the resting place of the Golden Crow."
The Fusang Tree was a Divine Tree from legends, and the Golden Crow would rise daily to perch on it!
Although Bei Feng did not think that the Fishing Rod in his hands was comparable to the fabled Fusang Wood, he could still assume that its quality was definitely not low!
With a thought, the Fusang Wood Fishing Rod was kept into his body. Only then did Bei Feng look up and take a look at the garden around him. As he did so, he could barely suppress a bitter smile from forming on his face.
Previously, a large patch of the garden had been completely flattened by the Celestial Snow Ridge Eagle's wing. But now, Bei Feng could only see a sea of lush colorful flowers and grass before him. The resplendent flowers bloomed spectacularly in all shapes and sizes, and their fragrance permeated the entire garden.
The most attention-grabbing bunch was a patch of roses that had been covered in the Celestial Snow Ridge Eagle's blood earlier. Each one of them was as big as a lotus, and was incomparably beautiful!
Bei Feng picked up the jade strip from among the grass and examined it. The jade strip was glittering and translucent, and a natural glow radiated from it.
‘Is this the jade strip which contains the alchemy legacy? How do I access it?’
Bei Feng placed the jade strip on his palm. Feeling the coolness of the jade on his skin, he shuddered involuntarily.
Since the legacy was supposedly stored within the jade strip, that meant that the legacy was not in written form. Instead, it should be a kind of mental transmission-based knowledge. In that case, it might have something to do with mental power.
Not hesitating further, Bei Feng brought the jade strip to his forehead and projected his mental power towards it!
"Bo!"
A light sound rippled outwards as with a slight push, his mental power entered the jade strip!
A large amount of incomparably complicated hand seals, techniques to improve control over mental power, and information about countless spirit herbs’ characteristics and habitats appeared in Bei Feng's mind immediately. He felt his mind throb slightly for a moment, and the feeling quickly disappeared.
Noticing that there was still more information, he continued pushing his mental power forward. There were actually three more barriers within the jade strip!
"Hong!"
Bei Feng's mental power was like a bountiful and unrelenting torrent of water, while the barrier before him was like a dam. Of course, before Bei Feng's powerful mental power, the barrier was quickly swept aside in almost an instant!
This time, all kinds of pill refining methods and techniques for forming mental imprints using mental power were transmitted to Bei Feng's brain. At the same time, three pill formulas appeared in his mind!
They were: the Grade 1 Green Agrimony Pill, Grade 1 Constitution Consolidating Origin Pill, and the Grade 1 Recovery Pill!
Bei Feng paused for a moment and sorted out the huge amount of information in his brain before continuing on to assault the second seal!
Under the relentless assault of Bei Feng's mental power, the second seal began to tremble and soon broke apart. Information more advanced than the ones before immediately appeared in Bei Feng's brain.
This time, he did not stop. Instead, he gathered his strength as he prepared to push through the last seal in one go! But at this time, a difficult problem appeared.
The moment Bei Feng's powerful mental power collided with the last seal, he felt like he had just kicked a steel plate with his bare foot. The impact caused him to feel incomparably dazed, but the seal actually did not move at all!
No matter how many times he repeated the assault, the seal stood as strong as the Great Wall of China, not moving in the slightest.
‘Looks like there's no way for me to break this seal for now. Only, I wonder if it can still be breached after I reach 3 stars for my Mental Power stat.’
Bei Feng decided to give up on continuing to unlock the jade strip for now. The seals should have been set there to prevent disciples from reaching out beyond their abilities. Without sufficient mental power, there was no way to even unlock the content for the next level.
With a wave of his hand, the jade strip disappeared into his spatial ring.
Rubbing his aching temples, Bei Feng did not rush to look into the huge amount of new information in his brain. Instead, he went into his room directly and laid down to rest.
By the time he awoke, it was already the next day. Coincidentally, it was still very early in the morning. His mental power was refilled, and bountiful enough to be projected out of his body passively. The mental power expenditure from the day before had completely recovered, and the mental fatigue had disappeared without a trace.
Bei Feng made his way to the mountain peak again. This time, he noticed that the trees were exceptionally green and luxuriant, and filled with vitality.
Bei Feng began with the movement set of Minor Illumination Breathing Technique. From the first step, he immediately felt a marked difference from before!
Firstly, the coordination between his arms and legs was much better. Many actions gave him a whole new feeling as compared to before his breakthrough. This was also a sign that Bei Feng's control over his body had reached a certain level of achievement.
As he followed the movement steps from Minor Illumination Breathing Technique, he could feel some kind of energy gathering in his body with every move!
After a while, he pointed his nose to the clouds and took a deep breath. At the same time, a dense purple light shot down from the sky and wrapped around Bei Feng’s body, immersing him in its radiance!
Waves of terrible itch and ache quickly appeared, but were also suppressed with equal speed with Bei Feng's blood and Qi!
After the seal on his body was lifted, this sensation was much easier to endure.
Bei Feng inserted his perception into his body. Grade 2 mental power was actually extremely powerful. It was even able to inspect the situation inside his bones!
As his bones absorbed the dense purplish light, Bei Feng's bones became more resplendent, like an azure stone. Countless tiny cells began to awake within the bones as they bathed in the purple light. After that, they began moving deeper into the bones!
From his perception, the number of these cells have already filled 70% of his skeleton.
What would happen when his skeleton was completely filled up like that!?
This examination was only possible because his mental power had broken through to 2 stars, allowing it to penetrate the bones. With his 1 star mental power from back then, it was not even able to bypass the thin membranes coating his bones.
"Meep!"
The little fox called out lightly as it stood atop a low branch on a nearby tree.
The moment Bei Feng ended his cultivation, the little creature leaped onto his shoulders with an agitated expression.
"Alright, I know that you're very formidable."
Bei Feng chuckled lightly as he smoothed out the fur on the little fox's head. Then, he looked over in a certain direction, and walked off towards the cliff which the White Jade Rice was growing on.
Numerous small trees shaped like horned dragons lined this side of the mountain, occupying the entire cliff area. Countless small red flowers coated their branches, and the air carried a refreshing fragrance which caused others to want to take a few more deep breaths.
The over ten White Jade Rice plants were growing quite well, and their fruits were each as big as a rice bowl now. Numerous small birds' nests could also be seen among its branches.
With the size of the little fox, it was possible to imagine how much it had to run about every day to ensure those plants grew so well.
Bei Feng felt a sense of guilt in his heart after considering this point. ‘Forget it, since you've put in so much effort we can just split it 50/50.’ He decided silently.
But after some thought, he still shook his head helplessly. The little fox was really too small, so it could not each too much. By the time it finished its batch of White Jade Rice, the next batch of White Jade Rice would be ready to harvest again.
Back in the villa, Bei Feng sat in the shade in the garden as he began to organize the huge amounts of information in his mind.
Bei Feng had to start by examining the legacy for pill apprentices. The information from pill apprentice until 2 star alchemist was already quite substantial. The main focus from then on would rely on the strength and control of mental power, as well as understanding the correct handling method of using the spirit herbs.
Time passed slowly, and Black Hole and Insatiable had already run off to somewhere else to play after creating a din before Bei Feng for a long time.
Only when the sky began to darken did Bei Feng open his mouth and spit out a breath of turbid air.
Despite spending the entire day immersed in his study, he had only managed to finish reading through the portion for pill apprentices.
But the more he studied, the more he found the art of alchemy to be broad and profound. Just the part about controlling mental power was very beneficial to Bei Feng already, and he felt like he had just obtained another exciting treasure!
