The bean-like blue flame was jumping like a baby bird who was waiting to be fed. With the movements of the flame, the stone bricks of different color slowly changed their color.
A small earthquake shook the Pill Refinement Room.
The chaotic green lotus flame was the first technique acquired by Yue Jing Hua from the Nine Transformation Technique, and after being promoted to Profound Jade Realm she could use it after practicing the second stage of the Rare Calligraphy Sacred Canon.
In the Rare Calligraphy Sacred Canon, the second stage was the chaotic green lotus flame.
The green fire was one of the mysterious fires between the heaven and the earth. Although it was fire, it also contained the wood element, and could grow on its own.
The initial form of the green lotus flame was a fire shape, which would later shift into the wooden lotus shape, before finally becoming a fire and wood double spirit.
This kind of fire was also the best for refinement.
Under the double influence of the sacred fire vein and the energy of Yue Jing Hua, after more than one hour, the chaotic green lotus flame had grown to the size of Yue Jing Hua's palm.
The piece of sacred fire vein in the bricks was drained and they exploded.
"In the second stage of the Rare Calligraphy Sacred Canon, there are three kinds of Pills, starting from the Precious Jade Pill." After deciding what Pill to refine, Yue Jing Hua searched for the herbs that she needed in the Pill Refinement Room. She found the three herbs, namely water mustard, black fire vine, and golden thorn chestnut.
Because the worn-out looking Pill Furnace was still usable, she could immediately start the Refinement Process.
***
At dawn, Yue Jing Hua, who had not slept a wink, pushed open the door of the Pill Room, her eyes were reddened, and there was already a bottle of Precious Jade Pills in her arms.
When she reached her Residence, Hong Ling was already outside the door.
"Miss, Madame has asked this servant to send you to Profound Pearl Imperial Academy, today is the last day for the students of the fire trial to report back to the academy." Hong Ling was congratulating Yue Jing Hua on being able to join the academy.
Lie Rou had gotten up early today, and came to ask Hong Ling, if Yue Jing Hua was still in the Pill Room, who had told her that Jing Hua had been staying there with a lantern all night.
Lie Rou hadn't approved of "Yue Jing Hua" joining the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy. In her opinion, in every school would be bullying, and if Yue Jing Hua entered, she would definitely be bullied.
But after this month's return of Jing Hua, the whole person had completely changed, and her words and character were very different from before.
She picked up a lantern and read in the Pill Room all night, which was enough proof of her transformation.
Thinking about it, Lie Rou decided to let Hong Ling send Yue Jing Hua to the academy to report.
Profound Pearl Imperial Academy?
Yue Jing Hua slapped her forehead, she had completely forgotten about that.
There had been a book called "History of the Azure Dragon Continent" in the Pill Room. And in her spare time, she had read some chapters of it, to get a general understanding of the continent. In Shang Kingdom, the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy was the first and most prestigious academy.
What she learned was a bit different from what Lie Chang Shun had told Lie Si Si, but it was enough for her to understand the customs of the Azure Dragon Continent.
The children of various wealthy families on Azure Dragon Continent, who had practiced Profound Qi since young and had finished the most basic martial arts studies in their home, would then enter the corresponding academy.
If there had been no accidents Yue Jing Hua should also have smoothly entered an academy. She was sixteen this year, and, according to her background, entering a regular academy shouldn't pose much of a problem.
But it was a pity that she had become a waste overnight, that wasn't able to practice Profound Qi. And thus, was rejected by many academies.
The Profound Pearl Imperial Academy was the largest academy in Shang Kingdom. It was originally the exclusive academy of the Imperial Family, and was specialized in teaching the royal offspring and the royal cavalry.
But about fifty years ago, a mysterious teenager had beaten the best of the best of cultivators of Shang Kingdom, this incident was latter dubbed the "sunset of a country".
This incident had served as a warning and the old law was changed. The Emperor would now spend a lot of money hiring famous tutors, and opened a number of courses including Pill Refining, Qi Practice, and Martial Arts.
After fifty years of development, and the increasing prosperity of the Shang Kingdom, a generous scholarship was set up in Profound Pearl Imperial Academy, which in turn attracted a lot of talented youths from around the mainland.
Every generation of the Lie Family studied at the academy.
At the beginning, "Yue Jing Hua" had wanted to join the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy for two reasons.
One, there was a rumor of a supreme metaphysical technique that could enable those who couldn't condense Profound Qi, to remodel their Dantian and re-condense their Profound Qi.
The second was because of a person.
A pair of disgusting eyes appeared in Yue Jing Hua's mind.
After returning to Lie Family, she had "remembered" something and there was a memory of "that person".
"Yue Jing Hua" had a scum fiancé.
Fortunately, that man was still alive. As she had glanced at the building that day, she had seen a cold man who had looked exactly like Hao.
Shang Prince- Fa Xiao Yi.
Although Fa Xiao Yi looked about 90% similar, his temperament was completely different.
The marriage contract between "Yue Jing Hua" and Fa Xiao Yi was a matter of purpose.
At the prime of the Yue Family, Yue Jing Hua's father was sent to Shang Kingdom as the Grand Duke of the Long Zhan Empire, and while "Yue Jing Hua" was playing alone in the Royal Garden, she inadvertently saved Fa Xiao Yi after being bitten by a snake.
The Empress of the Shang Kingdom at that time, now the Empress Dowager, thanked them and made a marriage contract with them.
During the period Fa Xiao Yi was recuperating, "Yue Jing Hua" often accompanied her father in and out of the palace. While doing so, she fell in love with Fa Xiao Yi.
But the woman who was supposed to be talented , was now the biggest joke in the Shang Kingdom with the decline of the Yue Family and the disfigurement of "Yue Jing Hua".
Upon reaching adulthood, Fa Xiao Yi moved out of the palace. He was of suave birth, under one person and above many, noble to the highest degree, his cultivation had also reached the Profound Earth Realm, his talent was amazing.
It's a pity that this youth of only 18 years old, had already taken 10 concubines. And the young prostitutes he favored were as numerous as river crucian carps.
Even so, "Yue Jing Hua" was still obsessed with him. Wherever Fa Xiao Yi went "Yue Jing Hua" would also be there.
While in public Fa Xiao Yi would ignore "Yue Jing Hua", regarding as nothing more than air.
After learning that Fa Xiao Yi was a student of the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy, "Yue Jing Hua" spent a lot of money, to directly sign up for the trial of Profound Pearl Academy.
"Just a scum man, who likes the color of skin," Yue Jing Hua took a second-ranked profound pellet.
Yesterday, she had seen Fa Xiao Yi's expression while looking at her. He didn't have the slightest affection for "Yue Jing Hua", on the contrary, there was only disgust.
After washing-up in her residence, Yue Jing Hua went out, a simple carriage, painted green, was standing outside the courtyard. Hong Ling was already sitting on it.
Yue Jing Hua didn't get in the carriage. After putting the second-ranked profound pellet into a box, she threw it to Hong Ling.
"Hong Ling, there is a second-ranked profound pellet inside. Just send it to the Profound Pearl Imperial Academy."
Hong Ling was confused: "Miss, what do you mea-"
"I'll go out shopping, I won't go with you." After she said this, Yue Jing Hua raised her palm and patted the horse's backside.
Without waiting for Hong Ling's reaction, the carriage sped away.
Yue Jing Hua looked back at the shabby mansion behind her, before walking in the direction of the city.
Seeing Yue Jing Hua had left, one of the house guards began to secretly follow her.
