Wine God

When Ji Dong woke up, his whole body was full of strength, but the sensations of power on both sides of his body were different. His right half seemed to be full of intense explosive force, while his left half exhibited resilience and endurance.

Ever since he arrived on the Five Elements Continent, Ji Dong had been struggling with constant weakness, only managing to get enough food to eat in recent days. Only after merging the two Crystal Crowns did he truly feel the existence of strength again, his vitality improved significantly, and he was no longer in the state of feeling tired from doing anything.

Looking at Xia Tian, Ji Dong sincerely said, "Thank you, Teacher Xia Tian."

Xia Tian waved his hand, saying, "Like I've said, these two Crystal Crowns are gave by the Dean, if you want to say thanks, go thank him. Now you have completed the first step of a Yin Yang Demon Master's cultivation, when you get back you can look in a mirror. When you control your Bing Fire Magic Power and Ding Fire Magic Power with your mind, you will see the Crown Stars you currently possess on your forehead. Both are half. This means you are now Level 1 apprentice of Bing and Ding dual fire."

"I'm already at Level 1 so quickly?" Ji Dong said in surprise.

Xia Tian snorted in annoyance, "That's because you have good luck. Without these two Crystal Crowns, you may never have had these two elemental magic powers. Future improvement won't be so easy. Remember, when cultivating, you must absorb both elemental magic powers at the same time, and the amounts absorbed must be exactly the same. Only in this way will it not affect your body, otherwise, if any of the magic power is absorbed excessively, it will immediately cause interference from your body's Yin and Yang Balance, which is equivalent to wasted effort."

"Teacher Xia Tian, how should I cultivate then? Since I am now Level 1 apprentice of Bing and Ding dual fire, can you teach me the cultivation methods in advance?"

Xia Tian hummed, said, "Haven't I already taught you? Sit cross-legged, relax your whole body, use your mindfulness to feel the dual-element magic power you possess. The magic power you now possess, that is, your body, is like a magnet, you have to use your consciousness to let them attract the free Bing Fire Element and Ding Fire Element in the air. This is the method of cultivation. The initial ten levels of cultivation for Yin Yang Demon Masters are most difficult. You can only rely on your own senses and mindfulness to slowly condense. This process is long and boring. Many people fail to create the Yin Yang Crown not because of lack of talent, but because they can't persist in the boredom. With your double attribute Yin and Yang balanced characteristic, you have to make much more effort than others."

"Thank you, teacher. I will remember your words and work harder than my fellow students. I will prove everything to you with my results. Can I start your punishment now?"

A slight smile finally appeared on Xia Tian's face. From the earlier observation of Ji Dong's enduring such pain while sitting and making no noise, he could see the determination of this child. Furthermore, Ji Dong's earlier confession of being an orphan also made Xia Tian less annoyed with him for cheating his way into the academy.

"You can skip the punishment for today, and I'll be lazy in the meantime. You just gained Level 1 magic power, start cultivating when you go back, take time to understand. If you have any questions, come and find me. I live in Room 501 on the top floor of the Bing Fire dormitory building. Off you go."

Ji Dong stood up and discovered that he was starting to take a liking to the Li Fire Academy and the straightforward, hot-blooded Xia Tian, who cannot stand fools. After bowing to Xia Tian, he left.

As the day grew late, accompanying the emergence of the sunset, it was once again the moment of day and night transition.

In the Dean's Office, Yang Bingtian received a visitor.

"Hello, President Yang." The visitor was about forty years old, thin and tall, with bright, intelligent eyes. He was wearing a red robe with a fiery emblem surrounded by a golden halo on his right chest. This represented not his strength, but his identity. Only people from the Southern Fire Empire Yin and Yang Magician Guild would dress like this.

"Hello, please sit." Yang Bingtian gestured for the visitor to sit down on the sofa.

"President Yang, I'm a staff member of the Empire's Yin and Yang Mage Guild. This time the guild has assigned me to bring you something. The guildmaster knows that you love to collect various Yin and Yang Magic Technique Scrolls. Occasionally, the guild has obtained one from a destitute Yin-Yang Demon Master, and can sell it to you at the original price."

"A Yin and Yang Magic Technique Scroll? Let me see it." Yang Bingtian's eyes lit up, and he gestured for the other party to bring out the scroll. If his greatest hobby in this life was tasting fine wines, then just next to wine tasting was collecting the Yin and Yang Magic Technique Scroll. The Magic Technique Scrolls are essentially some Yin-Yang Demon Techniques imprinted on special scrolls. Generally, they are primarily auxiliary Yin-Yang Demon Technique, as scrolls for attack and defense need to store too large an amount of Magic Power, making them hard to succeed.

The method to create these scrolls has been lost, so the Yin Yang Magic Technique Scrolls that can be bought are almost all antiquities. Yang Bingtian didn't collect these items to use them, but rather with an attitude of appreciation and research.

The middle-aged man deftly produced a scroll about a foot long from his belt which was studded with red gemstones. He carefully presented the scroll to Yang Bingtian.

Seeing this scroll, Yang Bingtian was immediately taken with it. As a man who knew his stuff, he could tell from the antique look of the scroll how old it was.

The scroll was dark yellow throughout, and it was unclear what material it was made of. There were intricate patterns and some special characters on it, none of which belonged to current texts. Especially the rich magic power fluctuation released from it was proof of how powerful the Yin Yang Demon Technique it depicted was.

As the middle-aged man saw how Yang Bingtian couldn't let go of the scroll, he smiled and said, "After careful research by the guild, this scroll should have been made by a master from a thousand years ago who specialized in making Yin-Yang Demon Technique scrolls. It is called the All-round Indeterminate Transfer Scroll. The most unique feature is that it was created after infusing at least five Yin Yang Demon Powers. It has great collection value."

"Ah! Is this the All-round Indeterminate Transfer Scroll that is said to be the most useless, but can contain the most Yin Yang Demon Power by using the principles of the Five Elements Generating and offsetting each other?"
