Chapter 56 Shall We Wait a Bit Longer
"Not bad at all!"
Hearing the various discussions around him, Zhang Xuan immediately knew that the two pieces of Fire-Starting Material were of considerable value and nodded in satisfaction, "Get ready, I will help you ignite the Furnace now!"
"Yes!"
Yu Xiaoyu and Liu Mingyue exchanged glances, each making their own calculations privately.
For the former, the blood essence of the Luo Zhi Bird would definitely not ignite the Furnace, and when the time came, she just needed to pretend a bit, and it shouldn't be difficult.
As for the latter, the blood essence of the Cold-Backed Turtle likewise couldn't ignite the Furnace, and even if it could, she wouldn't admit it! You embarrassed me yesterday, so I'll let you lose face in front of all these people!
Each with their own thoughts, they handed over the prepared blood essence and sat down cross-legged at the same time.
"Start!"
Unaware of their thoughts, Zhang Xuan casually pulled out the stoppers, sensed the potent strength in the two drops of blood essence, nodded in satisfaction, and with a gentle tap, both drops were released, suspended at his fingertips by the power's augmentation.
With a light flick, the blood landed on the foreheads of the two women.
"What is he doing?"
All the spectators were dumbfounded.
The students who could be here had almost all ignited their Furnaces already and knew the steps of firing the Furnace.
First, one needs to sense the Origin qi around them and draw it into their meridians, then guide the strength from the blood essence into the Source Pool, allowing the Origin qi to rub against these strengths, thereby producing sparks...
Easy to say, but the actual operation is extremely complex. As a teacher, one must first outline a formation around the student to ensure their fragile meridians are not harmed by the turbulent Origin qi, then use one's own Forge strength to assist in drawing out the Fire-Starting potency from the blood essence...
In short, igniting a student's Furnace requires the teacher to fuss carefully for a short hour, but this guy, taking out the blood essence and carelessly flicking it, is he planning to ignite for two people at the same time?
It's too childish!
"This guy..."
Mo Yanxue opened the notes she had prepared and found that they were completely different from the steps and methods of School Head Lu, immediately turning red with anger.
This is igniting the Furnace, a major event that affects a friend's entire life... To mess around like this, it's really outrageous!
She really didn't understand what City Lord Yu was thinking to have Xiaoyu apprenticed to such a person.
"Prepare for damage control!"
Two faint streams of primordial energy immediately traveled along the meridians and into their Source Pools at a speed invisible to the naked eye, silently hiding themselves.
This was a secret of a master of a realm, not to be easily revealed, even if these two were his students it wasn't safe.
After completing these actions, he approached and extended two fingers, extracting a drop of blood essence from each of their foreheads with a light cough, "Open your mouths!"
Yu Xiaoyu and Liu Mingyue, not understanding his intention, obediently opened their mouths in unison. Zhang Xuan didn't hesitate, and with another flick of his fingers, two drops of blood essence flew into their throats.
"Teacher..."
"Ah..."
Yu Xiaoyu and Liu Mingyue stood frozen in place, eyes widened in shock.
To ignite the Furnace was to absorb the power of the Fire-Starting Material, not to eat it... What was he doing, flicking blood into their stomachs directly?
"Finished... That's Heavenly Destiny Primeval Beast blood essence. To swallow it unprotected like that, they could be poisoned to death..." Lu Mingrong felt darkness closing in.
Heavenly Destiny Primeval Beasts are mighty, with blood essence being the essence of their strength. Normal people couldn't even observe it without being harmed by its sharp presence, let alone swallow it... And he just fed it to two kids who hadn't even reached the Accumulative Phase?
Was he lighting a furnace, or committing murder?
He had thought at worst if they couldn't ignite the Furnace, they could find another excuse to wrap things up... Now, if the kids were injured or died, there would be no need for the school to stay open...
"Reckless, simply reckless!" Wu Yunzhou clenched his teeth.
"Go check on them quickly, otherwise once the blood essence is absorbed by the body, it will be too late to save them..." Elder He Qin suddenly stood up, about to rush over when Zhang Xuan's voice rang out again:
"Don't panic, the drops of blood are wrapped in my strength, they won't harm you. Entering the stomach, it will be easier to absorb the power and ignite the Furnace..."
"Wrapped the blood essence in strength? Is that... late Accumulative Realm?"
"He was at the intermediate stage when he left the Book Collection Vault yesterday, has he reached the late stage already?"
On hearing this, Lu Mingrong and the others were stunned.
They had known this guy was a peerless genius with a fast cultivation speed, but in their wildest dreams, they never imagined it would be this fast!
Indeed, reaching the late Accumulative Realm and wrapping the blood essence with strength would prevent problems for a short while even if it was consumed.
"Maybe... we should wait a bit longer?" Wu Liuyun said, face flushed with the effort of holding back.
"Then let's wait... I want to see if this guy can truly help someone ignite their Furnace!" Lu Mingrong nodded.
