Chapter 123: Super Strong Volcano Potion, Level 9 Demon Fighter

What is this? Why does it contract spontaneously? Qian Jin raised his eyebrows. Thoroughly energizing his Level 4 Demon Fighter warrior power, Qian Jin twisted his body and lifted his arms outward. However, the net was unaffected, and the harder he tried, the tighter the black net became.

“Stop struggling. I asked Blake to make this special item for you.” Eulalia paced leisurely, holding the faint yellow volcano potion which gave out a sweet aroma in her palm. She knelt down in front of Qian Jin and said, “I know you will resist it, so I ordered these from Blake. Come on… open your mouth…”

Blake? Qian Jin felt hopeless as he knew the old blacksmith's forging technique had reached an unconquerable level. He could easily make a metal net as soft and tenacious as possible. He had no ability to even move, let alone escaping from these potions.

Qian Jin, when seeing Eulalia holding the volcano potion in one hand and a dark, yet hard pan in the other, opened his mouth wisely and obediently.

Warrior Weapon! Qian Jin felt that it was a luxury to have forged a kitchen knife warrior weapon to challenge Lucas, but now Blake had made a pan as a warrior weapon for Eulalia! Obviously, it wasn’t used for cooking. If he didn't open his mouth quietly, he would’ve been smacked by the pan until his mouth was forced open.

Pain! Piercing pain! Qian Jin flushed instantly. Looking at Eulalia in surprise and doubt, Qian Jin tried to find an answer. The pain had intensified! Yesterday, he was extremely hurt by the potion, but today it almost felt like he was being killed! It was much stronger than yesterday's volcano potion.

“Did you feel that?” Eulalia said in joy. “This is the strengthened version of yesterday’s volcano potion. I have added the condensed juice of a shocking fire fruit. It seems to be quite the right choice…”

Qian Jin stared at Eulalia with his eyes wide open. He couldn’t afford to squabble with this insane and uncanny pharmacist as he used up all his strength to suffer through the pain brought about by the volcano potion. Struggling to protest against this woman was more than stupid.

Three hours… Qian Jin felt like he was sliced into numerous pieces and then glued together. After, he was churned, put together again, and then placed into a volcano for a lava bath. Even if his stamina and warrior power had improved notably, the desperate pain still remained a nightmare for the iron-willed Qian Jin.

“Come on baby, listen to me. Drink this…” Eulalia poured the memory potion into Qian Jin’s mouth and splashed a basin of energy recovering potion on him as she said, “Okay, you can go study at the stupid pharmacist’s place.”

Fatigued, Qian Jin headed for the Adams’ pharmacy again and spent three hours reading volume 1 of the Complete Collection of Herbs and Plants.

After waking up, Qian Jin took the two girls to the Frosty Ice Lake again…

Day in and day out, Qian Jin would go to bathe in the Frosty Ice Lake or Burning Fire Lake after getting up in the isolated Four Season Valley. He sought for the energy stones in the mine on his way back to the cave, and he put on the mage hat and came back to the Endless World to undergo Blake’s forging exercise. Eulalia’s eerie potions kept tormenting Qian Jin. Every time Qian Jin approached her mystic potion shop, he doubted whether he would return to the stars before he went on reading the Complete Collection of Herbs and Plants in Adams’s shop.

Time flied. Two years had passed in just the blink of an eye. It was the end of winter in Four Season Valley, and with spring drawing near, the stiff snow started to melt.

The snow gathered in the entrance of the valley from the avalanche was melting rapidly, making the land around the valley entrance damp and muddy.

Qian Jin stood at the valley entrance and lamented about the upcoming departure when the snow subsided to knee height.

Sophia stood close behind Qian Jin with mixed emotions welling up in her mind. The past two years... two years’ time in the valley had created unimaginable changes in this boy, who used to be bold and naive when he first came. Now, he had grown tall and sturdy with the power of a Level 9 Demon Fighter, the legendary peak of Demon Fighters! He was less than nineteen years old…

Gabriella held the Centaur's magic core in her hands and meditated quietly. Although her spiritual power progressed slower than many talented mage students in the past two years, since she followed in Qian Jin’s footsteps, she had obtained the ability of entering and exiting meditation freely when she held the magic core.

In terms of proficiency of entering and exiting meditation, the great mages became overshadowed by Gabriella. However, although she had consumed a whole magic core of a green-skinned three-armed ape as well as one fifth of the Centaur, she only become a Level 5 Mage Student. She hadn’t yet acquired the mages’ qualifications, let alone caught up with the great mages.

“Come on.” Looking back at the valley entrance, Qian Jin carried the Zhanmadao, which had virtually become a part of him, and [Shoot Moon] bow, which was made from the iron ore collected around the valley one month ago. He trotted to the Fire Ice Lake: “Today I will try to enter the center of the Fire Ice Lake and experience what it feels like to be burnt by fire in one half of my body and frozen in ice in the other half, as mentioned by my teacher.”

The old man didn’t keep Qian Jin and the two girls waiting for one hour or so like before. Instead, he was already standing by the smoggy lake. He was dressed in neat clothes. His hands were crossed behind him and his eyes were fixed on the huge Burning Fire Lake. This made him feel different from normal.

Looking at the old man’s shadow, Qian Jin couldn’t help but sigh. For all those days, he had already treated this old man as his family. He felt reluctant to part with him and wanted to ask him to leave here together.

“How come?” Qian Jin shook his head, scolding himself for being stupid. If this old man really intended to leave, he could do so anytime. Even if Qian Jin didn’t understand the reason why he didn’t want to leave, he could see that he was really unwilling to leave here.

“People…” The old man faced the Burning Fire Lake and said in his low, husky voice, “People come and go, meet and separate over time. Just remember to come back and visit me.”

“Oh,” Qian Jin replied in a light voice. His steps became heavier than usual as he walked towards the old man and stood close behind him. The warrior power of a Level 9 Demon Fighter was fully activated, and using [Innumerable Shadows] from the Endless World, he instantly disappeared from where he was standing. His feet rubbed in the air, making cracking sound which resembled waves crashing at the shore. Then, he kicked the old man’s buttocks!

During the past years, Qian Jin used to be kicked in the buttocks and cast into the lake by the old man endless times. On his departure, he felt obliged to leave his master an unforgettable memory.

The old man flicked his ankle, forcing some of the soil on the bank into the sky. Then, his body flashed to the right. However, the left side of his butt didn’t escape Qian Jin’s kick…

Bang! Puff…

The old man was kicked in the buttocks, which caused him to roll in the sky and then drop down to the water like a giant rock, causing a large splash in the lake.

“So hot,” The old man performed a move using the Wind and Cloud Warrior Power. He popped his head out of the water and looked at Qian Jin and said, “You really are a weirdo. The highest rotation speed of Level 9 Demon Fighters is 1280 to 2650 cycles, but you seem to have exceeded 3000…”

“3500 cycles, with a fluctuation of 20.” Qian Jin pulled the old man out of the water and said, “Master, I’m here to tell you that I’m really about to go.”

“I know.” The old man had a look at his wet clothes and wore a faint smile. “The first time I saw you, I was aware that you wouldn’t stay here forever. Besides, you have mastered my [Wind and Cloud Power Training Scroll], so how could you waste your time here? I will give you a present. You have to get out of the valley to do what you desire. Declare to the whole world that becoming a great warrior is not a privilege to those who have obtained bloodline awakening.”

Qian Jin nodded his head. Departure was always filled with sorrow, and people didn’t like talking much.

“Follow me.” The old man shook his body, flicking away most of the water on his clothes. “This present was brought back by yourself. I have been preparing for it for two years, and now it’s time to hand it to you.”

Qian Jin frowned and racked his brains to recall what he had brought back.

Qian Jin had been to the Four Season Valley for two years, but he had never seen the old man’s house until today. It contained several plain wooden rooms, and in front was the Demon Doran Tree he stole from the Demon Uyeha Spider. A fruit with a light golden color hanged from it and swayed in the breeze.

“Oh! I know what it is!” Qian Jin patted on his forehead and pointed at the Demon Doran Tree. “It was taken back while I risked my life.”

The old man smiled, “You still remember it.”

“I cannot forget it.” Qian Jin shook his head like a rattle-drum and said, “three months ago, I was nearly eaten by the spider as supper. My master, you were really cruel to have me steal the tree when I was just a Level 3 Demon Fighter.”

The two girls chuckled after hearing this. Three months ago, Qian Jin successfully became a Level 8 Demon Fighter. Remembering that there was a Demon Uyeha Spider in the mountain, Qian Jin decided to get its magic core. He carried his Zhanmadao and rushed to the mountain excitedly. However, the Demon Uyeha Spider that never left its territory for more than five hundred meters chased after Qian Jin for three thousand meters until the latter fled with two big holes in his pants and buttocks.

Qian Jin didn’t realize the Demon Uyeha Spider’s true power until he engaged in a hand-to-hand fight with it. This demon beast’s power was much stronger than what Qian Jin imagined, and it had the special ability of hiding its strength.

Even if he had obtained the power of a Level 9 Demon Fighter, Qian Jin wouldn’t approach the Demon Uyeha Spider. However, he would sometimes dream of the invaluable magic core inside its body.
