For a long time, he was sweating and exhaling long breaths. After completing the master acceptance ceremony of the Black Fire Ring, the fire force of the heaven and earth also went back to normal.
In his mind, there was a new subtle connection between him and the Black Fire Ring.
"What just happened?! Was the young lord successful in making the ring accept him as its master? How is this possible!? Young Lord is not a Harmonious Spirit realm cultivator!"
Yuchi’s mind was in shock.
He had cultivated for many years but had never heard of anyone being able to make a Spirit Equipment accept him as a master before the Harmonious Spirit realm.
Ning Fan had not answered Yuchi’s astonished questions. He was completely focused on feeling the majestic power of the Black Fire Ring.
What a good Black Fire Ring! Since the start of his cultivation, this was his first real Spirit Equipment!
Ning Fan slowly lifted his finger and pointed forward. A Black Dragon Fire rose from it and it was a lot more powerful than before.
This was the difference between Magical Treasures and Spirit Equipment. One was passive and the other active.
Not only that!
Ning Fan’s eyes condensed. Magical Treasures required magical power while Spirit Equipment did not squander any.
For someone at the first level of Vein Opening like Ning Fan, certain Magical Treasures could not be used twice while Spirit Equipment had sustainable usage.
"Not bad! With a Black Fire Ring, the power of my Black Flame is increased by at least 30%!"
Feeling the boundless aura of the Black Flame in his body, Ning Fan unknowingly stared at Yuchi.
He really wanted to know: with the help of the Black Fire Ring, how much damage would his Black Flame do to Yuchi?
Of course, he couldn’t really go and attack Yuchi. It was just an interesting thought.
"Young Lord’s Black Flame is very similar to Earth Vein Demonic Flame. Could it be that it is the Earth Vein Demonic Flame?"
Yuchi suddenly asked.
"Earth Vein Demonic Flame?"
Ning Fan was surprised. There was no mention of the Earth Vein Demonic Flame in his memories.
"Young Lord should be aware that our true cultivation world is divided into Four Heavens on top and Nine Worlds below. This subordinate does not know how the Four Heavens differentiate ranks of flames, but I only know that our lower realms often call terrifying flames Earth Vein Demonic Flame, and it corresponds to the Sky Frost Chilling Energy. It is said that the Sky Frost Chilling Energy and the Earth Vein Demonic Flame are what the Void Fragmentation experts use to battle with."
Yuchi thought that Ning Fan had only started cultivating recently, so he introduced the common knowledge of the Earth Vein Demonic Flame to Ning Fan with good intentions.
After a lot of explanation, Ning Fan’s awareness of the cultivation world improved a lot, and Yuchi was about to leave.
"Yuchi, I will leave you with buying the medicine at the market. One-thousand-year old peach tree, do not forget. Right, keep something in mind for me. I want a black grass without any spirit and with a bitter and spicy taste. The shape is... Hmm... a bit like the dry grass from before."
Regarding the two main ingredients of the Jade Royal Dan, the Jade Royal Grass was already there. The other one was the Coiling Evil Grass. Even though Ning Fan didn’t expect Yuchi to find it, it was still worth mentioning.
The Jade Royal Dan was capable of advancing one’s physique and essence, but even if he couldn’t find the Coiling Evil Grass, it was not a big deal.
On the cultivation path, Ning Fan would have to be strong and slowly advance to the peak!
"A black grass? No different than the pig feeding grass? Well, I might have seen it at the Situ House, they might grow some. Last year, I went to pull out some for the pig, and it made him sh*t for half a month... I don’t know if this is the right kind of grass."
Ning Fan stared at Yuchi as if he was staring at an idiot.
Using Coiling Evil Grass to feed the pig as well, he truly had a talent!
However, Ning Fan couldn’t believe how his luck was so good. After finding the Jade Royal Grass, now the Coiling Evil Grass could be found as well. From his memories, the Coiling Evil Grass was the companion of the Jade Royal Grass. Since Jade Royal Grass could be found in Seven Apricot City, it was not too surprising for the Coiling Evil Grass to be here as well.
If he could find the Coiling Evil Grass, then he could make many Jade Royal Dan, and his strength would be able to increase.
In the future, he had many things to do, but the most important thing was — without a doubt — enhancing his own cultivation. Old Monster Han wanted him to be at the fifth level of Vein Opening in half a year, but he didn’t want to just barely satisfy the requirement.
"Void stepping in the sky! Power of the Harmonious Spirit realm! I have the Yin Yang Locket along with the Immortal Emperor’s memories. I am also the young lord of Seven Apricot City with all of its resources. Within six months, I will break into the Harmonious Spirit realm!
