Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort novel Chapter 820

Chapter 820: Chapter 255: Comprehending the Alchemy Dao, Ready to Slap Faces (First Update)

"Spiritual Power can also be used for Alchemy?" Mu Qingge was stunned.

’How can someone’s Spiritual Power convert into the efficacy of thousands of medicines and fuse into an elixir?’ The shock in Mu Qingge’s heart was like a tempestuous wave.

She couldn’t fathom it, couldn’t understand.

Outside the Shadow Wall, she furrowed her brows, her tense features revealing a hint of cold aloofness.

Lian Qiao crouched beside her, noticing Mu Qingge’s frown mirrored her own, her crimson lips pouting slightly, seemingly unwilling for Mu Qingge to show such a conflicted expression at this moment.

"I have worshipped the myriad herbs with my Spirit, transformed my Spiritual Power into a thousand flowers and herbs, and refined them into elixirs! Refine! Refine! Refine!"

It seemed as if each stone tablet contained a sentence. It was both a summary and an enlightenment, depending on what the person comprehended.

However, when Mu Qingge heard this sentence, she recited it silently in her heart, but her mind drifted to the previous saying, using the heart as a furnace to refine all things. Yet here, it was about transforming things into elixirs using the Spirit.

At first glance, these two paths of Alchemy seemed to contradict or clash somewhat.

But after reconsidering, Mu Qingge felt enlightened.

These were, after all, the paths of two Alchemy Masters, so they naturally wouldn’t be identical. There are thousands of paths, though the processes differ, the ultimate destination is the same.

This principle might hold true in the realm of Alchemy as well.

’I won’t concern myself with other matters, but will calmly comprehend each Master’s way of Alchemy, fully understand it, and discover my own path!’ Mu Qingge thought, and the illusion barrier before her instantly dissipated.

On the twentieth day that Mu Qingge was sitting solemnly in front of the Shadow Wall, Mei Zizhong withdrew from his contemplation and stood up, exhaling a breath of turbid air.

After more than twenty days of contemplation, he still couldn’t comprehend the first Shadow Wall.

Fortunately, he had a calm disposition, never forcing anything, nor did he have a competitive spirit for fame and success; so even though his first attempt at comprehension failed, he wasn’t discouraged.

He adjusted his breath and searched for Mu Qingge’s figure in the Shadow Wall.

Before coming here, Mu Qingge had told him that in the days leading up to the Alchemy Conference, she would remain here to comprehend Alchemy Dao.

Now, he was unaware of how much she had comprehended.

’Qingge is undoubtedly more skilled than me,’ Mei Zizhong thought to himself.

After walking around, he discovered Mu Qingge’s figure in front of a Shadow Wall. However, as he approached, he found that beside Mu Qingge, there was also a small figure crouching.

’Isn’t that child the one who came looking for Qingge that day?’ Mei Zizhong was somewhat surprised.

"Brother Mei!"

"Brother Mei."

Suddenly, Mei Zizhong heard someone calling from behind him.

He turned around and saw Zhao Nanxing and his two companions, done with their closed-door alchemy practice, coming over to find them.

Zhao Nanxing and the other two arrived beside Mei Zizhong and naturally saw Mu Qingge sitting cross-legged in front of the Shadow Wall.

"Who is that child?" Zhu Ling asked curiously.

Zhao Nanxing and Shang Zisu also looked curiously toward Lian Qiao.

Mei Zizhong slowly shook his head, "I don’t know either. However, she seems to be here for Qingge."

"Here for Qingge?" Zhao Nanxing furrowed his brow, his eyes filled with confusion.

Shang Zisu was also full of doubt. But she keenly noticed the Identity Token hanging on Lian Qiao and said, "She is from the Inner Courtyard."

"From the Inner Courtyard? We’ve been in the Inner Courtyard for two years, and although we haven’t met everyone, we’ve never heard of a little girl being an inner courtyard disciple," Zhu Ling’s eyes landed on Zhao Nanxing and Shang Zisu.

Seeing the three curious about Lian Qiao’s identity, Mei Zizhong said, "I don’t see any malice towards Qingge from her; otherwise, Qingge wouldn’t allow her to squat beside her."

This made sense.

The three nodded in unison, though curious about Lian Qiao’s origins and why she guarded Mu Qingge, they naturally wouldn’t ask more since there was no malice toward Mu Qingge and her presence was approved by Mu Qingge.

Ending their curiosity about Lian Qiao, Zhao Nanxing turned his gaze to Mei Zizhong and asked, "Brother Mei, how has your progress been?"

Mei Zizhong lowered his gaze with a smile and shook his head, "Embarrassingly, I haven’t fully understood even one."

"No rush, the three of us took almost three months to understand the first Shadow Wall. You haven’t even been here for a month," Zhao Nanxing said with a smile.

Zhu Ling chimed in, "Comprehension can’t be rushed. We’re not under time pressure like Qingge, nor endowed with her talent, so we’ll take it slow."

Shang Zisu nodded in agreement.

Mei Zizhong laughed, "Comparing oneself to her is truly a frustrating endeavor."

"Since Qingge is continuing her comprehension, we should leave. Balancing work and rest can lead to better results," Zhao Nanxing suggested.

...

Ten days later, when Mei Zizhong returned to the Shadow Wall, his first task was to look for Mu Qingge’s figure.

However, when he discovered she was still sitting solemnly in front of the same Shadow Wall, he was taken aback. He had thought that in these ten days, Mu Qingge would have switched to another Shadow Wall.

But—

Not only was Mu Qingge still there, the girl was also crouching motionlessly beside her, both of their postures seemingly unchanged.

Meanwhile, the other disciples beside Mu Qingge had already switched several times.

Silent for a moment, Mei Zizhong didn’t disturb Mu Qingge but walked to the Shadow Wall he had previously contemplated and squatted down cross-legged.

Time passed by another month and a half.

This time, Mei Zizhong was well prepared. After continuously contemplating for a month and a half, along with the previous twenty-some days, he had spent over two months finally comprehending his first Shadow Wall.
