Chapter 31: Distraught Northern River’s Loose Cultivator

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

Even if I might come across the horrible thunder tribulation like the one Su Clan’s Sixteen had experienced on the way of cultivation, so what? Even if I might come across a worse one, so what?

I don’t even need to tell the answer.

Even if there are countless dangers, even if there are all kinds of tribulations, even if I may get killed at any time.

How could an ordinary life be compared with such a magnificent life?

Confucius said, “Having heard truth in the morning, one may die content in the evening.”

Yeah, I may die content!

He wouldn’t miss the opportunity. Nobody would give up such an opportunity unless he was a living dead or a coward.

Some members were chatting in Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Soft Feather was telling Northern River’s Loose Cultivator about her experience in J-City, how she met Senior Song, how she found Ghost Lamp Temple and how she managed to catch the ghost spirits.

Song Shuhang felt more reassured when he saw Soft Feather was online.

Tapping the “Enter” key heavily, he posted his first message in Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Stressed by a Mountain of Books: “Hi, Seniors.”

A very common greeting, but as a newbie, such an opening should be just right?

Spirit Butterfly Island’s Soft Feather: “Which senior are you? Hi, Senior.”

Soft Feather was right online, and for her, everyone in the group was a senior, except for ‘Su Clan’s Sixteen’.

“Oh? Stressed by a Mountain of Books?” Northern River’s Loose Cultivator was a little bit surprised.

He remembered that, about ten days ago, group owner True Monarch Yellow Mountain added an ordinary person into this group by mistake. However, that person hadn’t sent any messages, so Northern River’s Loose Cultivator almost forgot there was someone like that in the group.

He thought he would quit the group soon—after all, not knowing that the members of the group were actually all cultivators, seeing the conversation contents, the guy would have thought that he got added into a group of lunatics, and quit it as soon as possible.

He didn’t expect that Stressed by a Mountain of Books had stayed in the group for so long. And just now, he called the members of the group ‘seniors’. Had this guy found out what was special about the group?

Stressed by a Mountain of Books: “Hi, Senior Northern River. Soft Feather, thanks for the two cartons of medicinal herbs!”

“Eh? Eh?! It’s Senior Song!!! “Soft Feather immediately realized and cheered up. She hadn’t been able to find out which senior in the group had the earthly name of “Song Shuhang”. To her surprise, Senior Song came online today.

Stressed by a Mountain of Books: “Soft Feather, just call me Shuhang. I am just an ordinary person added into this group by True Monarch Yellow Mountain by mistake. As for the reason, it’s because my chat account number is only one-digit different from yours. That’s why True Monarch Yellow Mountain added me by mistake, he actually intended to add you.”

“Oh? Senior Song, I just found that our account numbers are only one-digit different. What a coincidence!” Soft Feather was glad to find out about that—well, it seemed that it was not easy for her to forget about the appellation of “Senior Song”.

Seeing her messages, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator finally figured out that ‘the kind-hearted Senior Song from the group’ that Soft Feather met in Jiangnan was this very man, Stressed by a Mountain of Books.

So that’s why he called the members of the group ‘seniors’.

“Little Friend Shuhang, since you’ve sent messages in the group, I guess you have found something special about this group from Soft Feather.” Northern River’s Loose Cultivator added a ?.

It seems that True Monarch Yellow Mountain’s divination technique is really good, better than the stupid Immortal Master Copper Trigram’s by a million times. This little friend was really destined to join the group. But, why didn’t True Monarch Yellow Mountain tell us about the divination’s result?

Spirit Butterfly Island’s Soft Feather: “What did Senior Song find from me?”

Stressed by a Mountain of Books: “As a matter of fact, it really had a lot to do with Soft Feather. When I was helping her search for Ghost Lamp Temple, I did feel she was quite different from ordinary people. But, the most important thing are the two cartons of medicinal herbs for refining ‘simplified body tempering liquid’ that I received from her today, with which I just tried Medicine Master’s pill formula… and took a sip of pill liquid just now.”

“Oh? Have you successfully refined body tempering liquid?” Northern River’s Loose Cultivator was very surprised. An ordinary man received the medicinal ingredients from Soft Feather, followed the instructions in the pill formula of body tempering liquid, and just created the pill liquid successfully without anyone’s guidance?

When did pill refining become so easy?

Or, was it because Song Shuhang had an incredibly good luck? His luck was so good that even God would be jealous of it?

Luck was very mysterious and esoteric, but you couldn’t deny that it existed. Northern River’s Loose Cultivator knew a man whose luck could really make God feel jealous. The guy did nothing all day long. If he needed money, he would just go out and walk around, then he would find money on the ground everywhere and he just needed to pick it up. The income from one of his money-picking trips could make him live a well-to-do life for several days.

Unfortunately, despite such a good luck, the guy had no talent for cultivation. Otherwise, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator would definitely make him his disciple.

Soft Feather was also surprised. “Senior Song, I think the medicine herbs didn’t reach you until noon today? You could only refine one furnace of it at most by now. Did you succeed right at the first time?”

“I don’t know whether I succeeded or failed… although I followed the steps of the pill formula, there was a small accident when it came to the 41st medicinal herb.” Song Shuhang went on to say, “Finally, I only got about five spoonfuls of body tempering liquid, and I tried taking some of it. It turns out that my body was greatly strengthened. Be it my vision, physical capability, endurance, or strength, all of them have been strengthened.

“With the above characteristics, there is no doubt that you’ve concocted it successfully. Even if there was an accident, at worst, the quality of the body tempering liquid that you’ve refined would not be so good”, said Northern River’s Loose Cultivator.

As one of the most basic medicinal liquids, body tempering liquid’s effects were easy to be assimilated.

Thus, unlike the high-rank pills, people wouldn’t have a high requirement for its quality. Even if the quality of the refined liquid was not so good, it would have the same effect if people took more of it—that was why all other members of the group preferred Medicine Master’s simplified body tempering liquid even though its effect was only half of the old version.

If it was a high-rank pill, the smallest difference in quality would make a great difference in effect, and it was difficult to accumulate the medicinal effect by quantity. The higher the rank a pill was, the harder it was to absorb its effects. As for high-rank pills, a slight difference in quality would have to be compensated with a hundred lower-quality pills. The more pills one took, the harder it was for them to absorb a pill’s effects, and over time, high-rank pills would have no effect on cultivator.

“Little Friend Shuhang, actually, I wonder more how many furnaces of body tempering liquid have you managed to refine? How many times have you tried before you succeeded? ” Northern River’s Loose Cultivator asked curiously.

“How many furnaces? There should be only one. Because, I only have one induction cooker.” Song Shuhang wrote an honest answer.

Before he sent this message, Soft Feather answered, “As for the times, I think Senior Song only tried once. Because it should be only about five or six hours since the medicinal herbs reached him.

‘One furnace, and he succeeded in one go?!’ Northern River’s Loose Cultivator suddenly felt his legs turn soft and he just wanted to cry on his knees—as a loose cultivator, he had to depend on himself when he started cultivating.

How many times had he failed when he tried to refine body tempering liquid back then? He couldn’t remember! Anyway, he failed many, many times, and didn’t acquire the knack for refining body tempering liquid until he almost lost all his fortune, though he was refining the old-version body tempering liquid that was more complex… anyway, comparisons with others were odious!

By the way, what is that ‘induction cooker’? A new type of pill furnace?

Did Soft Feather also give little friend Shuhang a pill furnace? Was it because the new type of furnace could enhance the success rate?

Wondering, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator asked, “Little Friend Shuhang, as for the induction cooker you just mentioned, is it a new type of pill furnace?”

“Oh? Is there such a kind of pill furnace?”Asked Soft Feather doubtfully.

Seeing Soft Feather’s reply, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator felt his heartache—he had a feeling that Song Shuhang ‘s reply would make him burst into tears.

“…” Song Shuhang looked at the induction cooker in the kitchen and tapped the keyboard, “No, it’s just a No. 12 household induction cooker produced by Weizhen Company.”
