《The One and Only》27. To Refine the Evil Elixir

“Remember! Don’t practice it before you’re fully prepared.”
Head Wang handed the fragmentary script to Lin and emphasized again, “We’ve got inner disciples who have ever learnt innate scripts blindly, but all of them have ended up miserably. So speculate on it to broaden your eyes and enhance your comprehension of Martial Practice. That’s what you need to do.”
“I will always keep it in mind.”
Lin Yun replied after taking it over. It seemed the innate script was a double-edged sword.
If one used it in a bad way, one may hurt himself.
But if one used it in a good way, one could originate a set of fundamental fist skills, and benefit the whole sect.
Head Wang smiled, “You can go. I’m looking forward to your performance during the mid-year assessment two days later.”
“Excuse me.”
After leaving the Script Chamber, Lin Yun came to Administrator Yang again and asked to buy the Blood Refining Elixir.
“No problem. This is your right. But only for this once. And according to the sect price, you need to pay 500 lower spiritual stones.” Administrator Yang said gently and then handed over a Blood Refining Elixir to Lin.
Now maybe he should evaluate Lin Yun in a new way.
He even doubted that whether he was Lin Yun’s match if they had a real fight.
And all these had happened in only a few months.
Fortunately it seemed that Lin Yun didn’t bear grudges.
Lin didn’t hate him since he had embarrassed him before, otherwise he’d suffer.
Only 500 lower spiritual stones?
Lin Yun’s heart was bleeding. He bought three at a doubled price from Tong Hu.
But the sects had limited supply. So buying them at a doubled price was reasonable.
There were still a lot of outer disciples outside the hall. Lin Yun left under their envious eyes.

“In the mid-year assessment two days later, this sword slave will make a great coup.”
Someone broke the silence in the hall and said so.
On the other side,
when Lin Yun came before his wood cabin, he was totally dumbfounded.
The cabin wood the old master left had been burnt into ashes, nothing left.
It must Chen Xiao who did this.
On the first sight, Lin Xun even doubted whether he had gone to a wrong place. He confirmed it after taking a round.
“Senior Lin, right after you left, Chen Xiao and his people burnt down your house.”
On seeing Lin Yun watching the ashes of the house, some disciple passing by told him the truth.
It seemed he should have thrown that punch more heavily.
“Senior brother, you can apply for a new house. It won’t cost you much.”
He kindly gave Lin Yun some advice seeing Lin Yun was still a little gloomy.
Lin Yun smiled, “Thank you. I’ll figure it out myself.”
“All right then. I’m leaving.”
Since Lin Yun didn’t listen to him, he shook his head and left.
Since having been the sword slave willingly, the old master got driven out of the house for the servants. Then he came to this desolate place and built this cabin.
The cabin was quite simple and nearly couldn’t stand any strong wind or rain.
But the old master had never complained and lived in it for two years.
He wanted to stay in Qingyun Sect and maintain that person’s sword. He didn’t want to leave…
Because if he left, he may never have a chance to see that person ever again.
He stood out of the crowd, staring at the shining, unattainable and superior Su Ziyao. Maybe, he had ever dreamt to catch up with her steps.

But now the wood cabin was gone. The only trace that proved the old master had ever come to this world was gone.
Wearing a gloomy face, Lin Yun didn’t say a word and started to dig the ashes.
His nails were stuffed with bits of wood mixed with mud. Soon his hands were scratches all over, with blood streams in his fingernails. No…nothing left.
However hard he tried, he still couldn’t find any items.
After quite a while, he found a fragmentary piece of paper in the ashes.
On it was recorded the pills and elixirs Su Ziyan had ever rewarded the old master. He wrote it himself.
Swoosh!
A wind blew the scrap of paper in Lin Yun’s hand away. Nowhere to be found.
Watching the flying scrap of paper, Lin Yun lost in his thoughts. Love might be the most complicated thing in the world.
Everybody knew the old master’s feelings for Su Ziyao. Even if he knew they were impossible, and Su Ziyao even wouldn’t lay her eyes on him, he would still feel satisfied as long as he could see her. The old master was really a spoony.
But was Su Ziyao wrong?
Absolutely not. Why would she care a fool who even didn’t know how to express his feelings?
Then whose fault was it? The old master’s?
Of course not.
Even the humblest sword slave had the right to have a dream, let alone it was to have feelings for someone.
“You are right.”
Lin Yun murmured, while looking at the gone scrap of paper.
After a moment, he tried to collect some woods and rebuilt a new wood cabin.
There were two days before the mid-year assessment, leaving Lin Yun no time to study his Dragon Tiger Fist, since an innate fragmentary script was too complicated.
If one got stuck in it, one’s power would be reduced instead.
After taking the Blood Refining Elixir he had just obtained, Lin Yun carefully took out the internal elixir of the evil beast.
Boom!
The evil momentum left on the internal elixir made him overwhelmed. That was the evil spirit particularly owned by an evil beast.
Lin Yun, who had killed lots of evil beasts, now knew better of its value.
Only one out of ten evil beasts could conceive an internal elixir. So one should know how precious it was!
The value of an internal elixir could not be measured by spiritual stones.
He wanted to break through the fifth level and reach the sixth level of Martial Practice using this evil internal elixir.
Even though he had taken five Blood Refining Elixirs, it was still quite difficult to break through the fifth level within a month. He could only rely on the evil elixir of the Flower Spot Tiger.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yun swallowed the evil elixir numerous people had been dreaming of.
Boom!
The evil elixir immediately melted in his mouth, changing into surging and dominant aura of heaven and earth and exploded in his body.
Meanwhile, streams of bloody momentum flew out of his body.
The evil spirit of the Flower Spot Tiger gradually integrated with his own momentum.
His Pure Yang martial art of the third level was crazily operating inside his body.
He tried to subdue the dominant power of the evil elixir. But it was really beyond Lin’s expectations.
It was like a hot-tempered wild horse running wildly inside Lin Yun’s body.
His face kept changing, sometimes green and sometimes white, and sometimes it even turned black.
It didn’t look good!

8 73The carnomancer
Jackson was but a normal american just looking to get by in life. unfortunately for him life had other plans as a terrorist bombing took place in the air port in london where he was getting off at. The resulting explosion killed him instantly, and now he has been reincarnated into the world of Rokna.In this new world of magic, monsters, and conflict join him under his new identity Adimir freelancer the adventurer half-elf as he seeks a way to live out an exciting life of researching new and creative ways of combining magic and science. But with a tyrannical empire beginning to prepare for a bloody war the signs of turmoil begin to loom on the horizon. Adimir will face numerous challenges. Both challenges to those native to this world, and against other people have come from earth. Author's comment: I'll be uprfont with you on the entire war thing that the description hints at. Yes it will eventually happen, and many of the strange and out of place things in the beginning will tie into that. Not that it will be explained until much later in the novel. In fact the first 100 or 200 chapters will be spent on the main character growing stronger as an adventurer before the entire war even begins to start rearing its ugly head. So for those eager for the war to kick off sorry, but there won't be a big explosive war so early. At least not with the empire (although if you read carefully you may be able to pick up signs of how close the war is with what happens in the story). But the wait (I hope) will be worth it as it will be diving into some of the stuff a otherworlder in a significant position of power could do with the right knowledge. With that little warning over with I hope you enjoy this novel of mine. Its my first actual attempt at writing a story for people to read so please keep that in mind. If you have any criticism please tell me. I'd love to read them and will be using them to help me in improving my writing quality as time goes on. Experience is the best teacher after all.
