56: Chapter 56 Another Breakthrough

Ye Yisong obediently opened the Storage Pouch, and Ye Jiesheng probed inside with his Divine Sense, discovering that the Medicinal Pill supply inside was running low.

If Ye Jiesheng remembered correctly, after Ye Yisong broke through to Martial Master, he had obtained a total of 14 spirit ascension pills, 18 pulse warming pills, 9 Body Tempering pills, 5 soul nourishing pills, and 1 dragon-tiger golden pill.

Most Martial Masters absorb and digest three third-grade High Grade spirit ascension pills, and their strength often increases by one star. Combined with pulse warming pills, they can avoid the medicinal power being too violent and damaging the Meridians.

Body Tempering pills can exercise a Martial Artist's physique and strengthen the Physical Body.

soul nourishing pills can enhance a Martial Artist's Divine Soul power, helping Martial Masters improve their Mental Energy to the fourth grade faster, breaking through one of the barriers to Martial Ancestor.

This spendthrift; dozens of third-grade High Grade Medicinal Pills, in just a short month or two, were almost finished by him.

Now in the Storage Pouch, there were only a pitiful dozen or so pills left: 2 spirit ascension pills, 9 pulse warming pills, 5 soul nourishing pills, and that dragon-tiger golden pill.

This brat Ye Yisong, this four-star Martial Master cultivation level of his was entirely raised by swallowing Medicinal Pills.

What surprised Ye Jiesheng was that such a cultivation level raised by swallowing Medicinal Pills should be like a castle in the air, without any Foundation.

Yet Ye Yisong had a solid Foundation, strong and powerful Meridians, and abundant Spiritual Qi, as if he had been repeatedly tempered.

Most importantly, Ye Yisong had swallowed dozens of Medicinal Pills, yet not a trace of medicinal toxins could be seen in his body.

Is there any justice in this!

"When you swallow Medicinal Pills to Cultivate, is there any difference compared to refining Spiritual Qi yourself?" Ye Jiesheng asked.

"I don't... actually, there is no difference." Ye Yisong caught himself just in time.

Ye Jiesheng understood. His fists clenched tightly, and he really wanted to punch Ye Yisong to death. It was confirmed: this kid simply didn't actively refine Spiritual Qi to Cultivate at all; his entire cultivation level relied on swallowing Medicinal Pills.

If this was true, the Ye Family really had... produced a True Dragon!

As long as there were enough Medicinal Pills, Ye Yisong could quickly rise to the Martial Ancestor realm, and even...

He dared not think, he truly dared not think!

At this moment, Ye Yisong suddenly thought of something and said hesitantly: "That green lotus in my Dantian sometimes wanders irregularly through my Meridians. Does that count?"

"Of course it counts," Ye Jiesheng said excitedly. This wasn't just a green lotus; it was clearly a precious lotus!

It seemed that eliminating medicinal toxins was likely the function of this precious lotus. Incredible.

With his attack power increasing alongside his cultivation level, plus this ability, Ye Yisong was on the verge of taking off!

"Can you still absorb Medicinal Pills?" Ye Jiesheng asked. He still wanted to observe Ye Yisong's Cultivation state and carefully check if there were any anomalies in the flow of Spiritual Qi.

"It's fine. Absorbing three or five pills a day is no problem, but I have to rest for a few days before I can continue absorbing, otherwise my Meridians will ache," Ye Yisong said lightly.

"Then swallow another Medicinal Pill. I want to carefully see if there is any problem with your Spiritual Qi circulation," Ye Jiesheng instructed.

Ye Yisong took out a spirit ascension pill and swallowed it. A massive surge of Spiritual Qi immediately flooded Ye Yisong's body, making him feel a slight ache in his Meridians. Ye Yisong immediately activated his Cultivation Technique, guiding the Spiritual Qi to flow along a certain route, and simultaneously swallowed a pulse warming pill.

Ye Jiesheng's eyes emitted a yellow glow. He muttered something and gave a light shout: "Open!"

He opened his eye of spiritual perception, observing in detail the circulation of Spiritual Qi within Ye Yisong's body.

Ye Jiesheng watched for a long time but didn't see anything different. He had to give up the observation, rubbed the space between his eyebrows, and the yellow light in his eyes dissipated completely.

Watching Ye Yisong, who was still refining Spiritual Qi, he thought: I wonder if other Martial Artists who successfully cultivated the Green Lotus Sea-Transformation Sutra are the same as Song'er, also able to condense a green lotus in their Dantian.

Or perhaps the phenomena cultivated by everyone are different.

This Cultivation Technique is simply too mysterious; anything could possibly happen.

I remember there was a person in the Cang River Prefecture city who successfully cultivated this technique. I can ask a good friend in the prefecture to secretly keep an eye on this person's situation.

Too many people knew that Song'er had successfully cultivated the Green Lotus Sea-Transformation Sutra. By the time he reacted, the news had already spread, and it was too late to seal it off.

No one expected Ye Yisong to be able to successfully Cultivate this technique; he had truly been careless.

Seeing Ye Yisong stop meditating, Ye Jiesheng put an end to the many thoughts in his mind, felt the stronger aura on Ye Yisong, and said: "Song'er, remember, you cannot tell anyone about the fact that the green lotus can purify medicinal toxins."

"I know, Father," Ye Yisong replied.

"From now on, even I will not ask you about the Green Lotus Sea-Transformation Sutra again," Ye Jiesheng promised solemnly.

The more people who know, the more danger there is. No one knows what will happen in the future.

Knowing these current miracles, even Ye Jiesheng felt a bit unsettled.

Human nature is the thing least worth testing!

"You Cultivate well here. I have something to take care of outside." After Ye Jiesheng finished speaking, he walked out.

"Father, wait!" Ye Yisong called out to Ye Jiesheng, his eyes looking at him longingly, almost pleading.

How could Ye Jiesheng not know what this kid wanted when he called him back.

He tossed a porcelain bottle to Ye Yisong and said with heartache: "Use it sparingly. I don't have many Medicinal Pills left either."

I'm so poor! A growing lad, eating his father out of house and home.

"Thank you, Father," Ye Yisong said pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect Ye Jiesheng to actually have some.

"Hahahaha!"

Ye Jiesheng was alone on a vast wild hillside, swinging his iron fists to his heart's content, smashing into various parts of the mountain. A perfectly good hillside was forcibly leveled to the ground.

"Come out, Xiaowu." After venting for a while, Ye Jiesheng felt much better inside and called out Ye Xiaowu, who was hiding in the dark.

Just upon arriving at Shuinan County, Ye Jiesheng had discovered a pair of eyes behind him, secretly watching Ye Yisong all along.

"Hehe, nothing can be hidden from you, Fifth Brother." Ye Xiaowu revealed his figure and came to Ye Jiesheng's side.

"It was the Clan Chief who sent you to secretly protect Song'er, right?" Ye Jiesheng asked.

Ye Xiaowu rolled his eyes at Ye Jiesheng. This was a rhetorical question; besides the Clan Chief, who else could mobilize the Clan Protection Guard? The Grand Elder hadn't asked about clan affairs for a hundred years, and the Old Ancestor wouldn't care about these things either.

"Fifth Brother, I really envy you! You gave birth to a good son," Ye Xiaowu took a sip of spirit tea and said: "How long has it been since the clan used the Clan Protection Guard to protect a young clan member?"

Every Clan Protection Guard of the Ye Family was a Martial Ancestor powerhouse; they were one of the most mysterious forces hidden in the dark by the Ye Family.

Only the Clan Chief could mobilize them to carry out missions. Those who were not core members of the Family had never even heard of their existence.

"Hahaha!"

Hearing Ye Xiaowu's words, Ye Jiesheng's just-calmed mood couldn't be suppressed again.

"Pop!"

Ye Yisong had broken through again. These past few days, there was nothing going on. Apart from attending a Family get-together between the Cangjiang Ye Clan and the Shuinan Ye Clan once, Ye Yisong had spent all his time in the Cultivation room, diligently Cultivating... diligently popping pills.

Finally, hard work paid off; Ye Yisong had broken through another star, becoming a five-star Martial Master.

"Work harder, strive to break another star before the Craftsmanship assessment," Ye Yisong cheered himself on. There were still five days left until the Craftsmanship assessment.

The feeling of cultivation improvement was simply too awesome!
