Chapter 49 - Flight Path

With their Dou Wang-level cultivation, they used their Dou Qi wings to fly in the sky. In less than a quarter of an hour, they had arrived at the flying station.

Under the envious and awe-inspiring gazes of the students in the outer courtyard, the two of them slowly flapped their Dou Qi Wings and descended from the air to the ground.

The instructor who was in charge of order saw Xiao Ling and the other two coming back, and said hello to them with a smile: "It seems that you are ready to set off. I have already fed the griffin once. As long as I feed it again, with its fourth-level magic beast's cultivation, it should not be a problem to fly to the Jiama Empire within half a month."

Nodding to the instructor and throwing a porcelain bottle to him, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Thank you for your care, instructor. This contains a Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, which can improve the cultivation level of a Da Dou Shi by one star without any side effects. Thank you for accompanying me in the battle in the outer courtyard before, which enriched my practical experience. This is just a small token of my appreciation."

The instructor took the porcelain bottle containing the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill and accepted it without pretense. He smiled and joked, "As expected of a sixth-ranked alchemist, you are generous. I will accept it shamelessly. Be careful when you are out there training and pay attention to your own safety."

After waving to the instructor, Xiao Ling took Zi Yan's little hand, circulated his Dou Qi slightly, jumped up, and landed steadily on the back of the griffin.

After touching the griffin's head, Xiao Ling pointed in the direction of the Jia Ma Empire, threw a second-grade pill into its mouth, and said, "Big guy, I'll leave it to you on the way."

As if it understood Xiao Ling's words, or perhaps for the sake of the pill in its mouth, the griffin nodded cooperatively, and after making a cry, it jumped up more than ten meters high, then flapped its broad wings vigorously a few times and began to fly into the sky.

Feeling the breeze blowing in his face and watching the Canaan Academy getting smaller and smaller in his field of vision, Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh: "The story of Canaan Academy is about to come to an end."

Holding Zi Yan's little hand, the two of them entered the room on the back of the griffin. They would spend the next ten days or so here.

After entering the room, Zi Yan shook Xiao Ling's arm and asked expectantly, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, where are today's pills?"

Reaching out and touching Zi Yan's smooth purple hair, Xiao Ling said lovingly: "Don't worry, I'm ready."

Taking out a bottle of pills from the ring, Xiao Ling handed it to Zi Yan and warned her, "You can't eat them all at once. Even if you have extraordinary blood, your body will feel uncomfortable if you take in too much energy. Go to the next room to take the pills and practice. I'll practice fighting skills in this room for a while."

Nodding vigorously, Zi Yan raised her head and said in a somewhat funny way: "Don't worry, don't worry, I will be fine." After that, she took out a pill from the porcelain bottle, threw it into her mouth, and ran into another room.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling could only shake his head helplessly. What else could he do? He could only pamper her. With Xiao Ling's status as a sixth-grade alchemist, it was more than enough to raise Zi Yan with pills made from some fifth-grade medicinal materials.

He walked to the table, pulled out a chair, and sat on it. He took out the "Distraction Control Method" extracted from the system from the ring, and Xiao Ling first read the content completely, and then began to practice according to the steps recorded above.

The practice method of distraction control is not complicated. Different people have different practice methods. As long as you can control yourself from multitasking, you can be considered to have gotten started.

To practice the distraction control method well, one must first have a strong soul perception ability. For Xiao Ling, who has already broken through the spiritual realm, it is already an easy thing. But to practice this skill well, to put it simply, one must be able to control multiple directions while being able to concentrate.

This is indeed a bit difficult for Xiao Ling. Everyone has habits. When doing one thing, they used to concentrate on it alone. Now they have to control multiple directions at the same time, which is really a bit difficult to adapt to.

He raised his hands and opened his clenched fists, while activating the fused beast fire and the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame in his body. "Puff..." A blue-pink beast fire appeared on his left hand and the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame leaped out on his right hand.

Xiao Ling began to use his soul power to control the two flames at the same time to make different shapes in order to achieve the effect of training multitasking.  

At the beginning, Xiao Ling would subconsciously focus on one flame. After several failures, relying on his strong soul perception, Xiao Ling was soon able to control two flames at the same time. He separated another flame from the beast fire and began to control three flames at the same time, gradually increasing the difficulty, making the movements of the flames more and more difficult...

Less than an hour later, Xiao Ling had already reached the realm of the Three Apertures Controlled Heart. He could already do three things at once very easily. However, the difficulty would increase exponentially when practicing to a higher realm. If Xiao Ling wanted to reach the Seven Apertures Controlled Heart, he still had to continue practicing.

Practicing this secret method not only allows you to do multiple things at once, but also increases your control over your soul perception. Using soul perception can achieve better results, which is indeed a good skill for alchemists. When refining low-level pills, you can refine more than one pill at a time, and extracting liquid medicine can also refine several medicinal materials at a time, which can greatly speed up the speed of refining pills. As long as you concentrate all your attention when condensing the pill, the success rate of refining the pill will not be affected.

During the following flight, the days became regular. He practiced the "Distraction Control Method" every day, practiced alchemy, practiced Dou Qi at night, chatted and played with Zi Yan, and teased his monster Rayquaza. With the company of Zi Yan and Rayquaza, this not-so-short journey was quite interesting, which made Xiao Ling determine that taking Zi Yan with him was a wise choice.

Half a month passed in a flash.

In the room, Xiao Ling sat cross-legged. In front of him were seven fourth-level medicinal herbs, which were being tempered by Xiao Ling using the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame.

Zi Yan, who was standing aside, stared intently at Xiao Ling's movements, fearing that he would accidentally burn the herbs he had just snatched from the monsters.

After several herbs were refined into liquid medicine, Xiao Ling took out a few special sugar pills from the ring and threw them into the ring. Then he condensed the liquid medicine into round pills.

Zi Yan, who was staring at Xiao Ling, noticed this scene. Her eyes instantly lit up with golden light. She took out a porcelain bottle from her ring, opened the stopper, and shook it at Xiao Ling.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling couldn't help but twitch his lips. This girl really cares most about whether there is food or not. He stretched out his hand and the pills fell into the porcelain bottle in Zi Yan's hand.

When the last one was about to fly into the bottle, Zi Yan simply opened her mouth wide and swallowed it in one gulp, which made Xiao Ling on the opposite side laugh.

After sealing the porcelain bottle with a stopper and putting it into the storage ring, Zi Yan smiled at Xiao Ling and said, "Thank you very much, Xiao Ling. Your method is quite good. The speed of refining the pills is much faster than before."

Xiao Ling replied: "I have recently practiced a method of controlling soul perception, which is very helpful in refining pills."

Nodding, Zi Yan stopped talking about this matter and asked again: "Can we go to the Jiama Empire today? I really want to see what your and Xun'er's family looks like."

Picking up the map in his hand and taking a look, Xiao Ling replied: "With the speed of the griffin beast, we can reach the Ghost Town Pass in another hour. That is the southernmost part of the Jiama Empire, and there are many cities between it and the Xiao family in Wutan City."

After putting the map into his ring, Xiao Ling looked in the direction of the Jiama Empire and thought, "First, send a letter to the Xiao family and ask them to move to the imperial capital. This way, even if the Yunlan Sect wants to secretly attack the Xiao family, with my identity as a sixth-rank alchemist, I will have to think twice in a crowded place like the imperial capital."

He looked towards the Tagor Desert. There was an old man there who could be pulled out to work for him. It should be more than enough for him to help take care of the Xiao family. He had done his best for the Xiao family to this extent. If he could not do it for himself, he could only protect himself. His own safety was the most important thing.
