A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

Xuan Jian's expression suddenly changed after he had just praised Bai Yuan.

He felt an unknown force flowing from his dantian to his limbs and bones. This force was warm and gentle, and it immediately dispelled the cold air around him.

And at this moment, he wasn't the only one who felt this way; everyone who had just eaten the rabbit meat roasted by Bai Yuan felt the same way.

The first thing that came to everyone's mind was the rabbit meat they had just eaten. They couldn't explain why this had happened either.

“It’s truly amazing!”

Xuan Jian discovered that this power did not simply make them unafraid of the cold, but rather made them feel as if they had their own flames, dispelling the surrounding chill.

Therefore, even the baby in Wei Qianqian's arms was protected at this moment, and its face turned rosy.

A cold wind blew by, but the people didn't feel cold at all, in fact...

It feels quite refreshing.

With this warm force protecting them, they don't have to worry about anyone catching a cold tonight.

Silently enjoying this pure yang energy, everyone tacitly remained silent about the matter. Having gained such a great advantage, Xuan Jian and the others knew what they should and shouldn't ask.

After chatting around the fire for a while, everyone prepared to rest.

Because the interior space of the carriage was limited, Bai Yuan and the others chose to leave the carriage for Wei Qianqian and Ningyan.

The two were the only two women among the group. Ningyan was a weak maid in front of Xuan Jian and the others, while Wei Qianqian had a child with her. Therefore, no one had any objection to this arrangement.

They originally planned to add him to the journey, since he was quite young.

However, Lu refused and chose to stay by Wuming's side and cultivate the Meditation Technique with him.

Xuan Jian sat by the carriage, keeping watch at night.

Bai Yuan found a tree and hid on it to rest.

Before starting his nightly cultivation, he also planned to check the rewards that the system had just distributed.

Name: Bai Yuan

[Item]: Azure Lotus Fire

After opening the system panel, Bai Yuan immediately noticed a new item in the system, containing only one item.

He immediately clicked to view the details.

【Azure Lotus Fire】: Azure Lotus Fire, also known as Azure Lotus Core Fire, is a flame that exists within the molten lava of the Earth's core. Born deep within the earth, its power is unpredictable. But none of that matters. Most importantly, it can be used for cooking! Ordinary fire cannot cook truly delicious food, but it can! With it, your culinary skills will reach new heights!

Upon seeing this system introduction, Bai Yuan's expression was priceless.

Who would use a strange fire to cook?!

When the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame was used to burn it, not only the food, but even the pot was reduced to ashes!

But when he saw the master chef's recipes recorded in the system, he was speechless.

The Level 2 Master Chef's Recipe Book only records three dishes: First-Class Tea Egg, First-Class Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and First-Class Steamed Mandarin Fish.

All three dishes are required to be cooked with the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire; otherwise, they will not achieve the desired effect.

Since the recipe only recorded the preparation method, the specific effects could only be known after he cooked it, and Bai Yuan was extremely eager to try it.

However, if he wants to use the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire to cook, he needs to refine and devour it first, and master its use.

The beginning was simple, since it was a reward from the system and didn't require much effort.

The moment Bai Yuan took out the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, it transformed into a stream of light and entered his body before disappearing.

Then, Bai Yuan could feel a blue flame appear deep within his sea of ​​consciousness. He had established a connection with the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and successfully turned it into his tool fire.

A barely concealed smile appeared on his face as he eagerly tried to activate the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, wanting to see just how powerful this so-called strange flame really was.

With a slight thought, a ball of azure flame surged from his lower abdomen, the dantian, and quickly traveled along the meridians in his body to his hand.

The blue flame danced on his fingertips, without causing him any burning sensation, but he could still feel the terrifying power contained within this small flame, causing the surrounding air to distort slightly.

The only thing that made him feel a little embarrassed was that he could only control a small ball of flame at his fingertips.

After only a brief test, Bai Yuan quickly extinguished the flames, calmed his inner energy, and sighed softly.

"This internal energy is being consumed way too quickly! If I were to use the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame to cook a dish, I'd be completely drained!"

For the time being, he could only look at the three master chef recipes in the system.

Setting unrealistic goals is not advisable; let's take it slow and steady!

Clearing his mind of those thoughts, Bai Yuan swallowed a Qi-Nourishing Pill and began cultivating.

Following the new book during its initial release is very important, as it relates to a series of recommended resources later on. If you like this book and are looking forward to it, please click on the latest chapter and go to the last page. Thank you so much, newbie!

Chapter 46 The Final Stop: Sanghai

While Bai Yuan was immersed in cultivation, he was unaware that the strange fire he had just taken out had caused an unusual phenomenon.

Wuming, who was cultivating, and Xuanjian, who was resting with his eyes closed, both opened their eyes immediately.

They saw the flames burning in the bonfire suddenly surge towards the direction where Bai Yuan was.

It wasn't because of the wind, but for some other reason.

The flames bowed to Bai Yuan as if a subject had met his king.

Seeing this strange phenomenon, Wuming and Xuanjian couldn't help but feel puzzled.

However, this abnormality only lasted for a moment, and the flames returned to normal when Bai Yuan put away the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Wuming and Xuanjian exchanged a glance from afar, then simultaneously chose to ignore the matter and pretend they knew nothing about it.

Time flies, the silver moon sets, and the bright sun rises.

Golden sunlight filtered through the leaves and shone on Bai Yuan, while a cool breeze rustled the leaves.

Feeling a chill, he slowly opened his eyes and ended his cultivation.

At this moment, the pure yang energy on his body had disappeared, but Bai Yuan felt that it was already quite good that it could last for a whole night.

He stretched and jumped down from the tree.

At this time, the others also woke up one after another.

"The weather looks great, perfect for traveling!"

Bai Yuan looked up at the azure sky, feeling incredibly happy.

After eating something simple, they tidied up the ground and then, taking advantage of the bright sunshine, hurried on their way, hoping not to sleep on the streets that night.

Sanghai of Qi State, a small sage village.

This is the main location, or headquarters, of Confucianism.

The current leader of the Confucian school is not Fu Nian yet. At this time, Fu Nian is only about ten years old, just a young boy.

Therefore, the current head of the Confucian school is Lu Zhonglian, Fu Nian's master.

This man was also a man of noble character. He once helped Tian Dan revive the State of Qi, and he also had the legendary deeds of refusing to serve the Qin Dynasty and writing a book to Liaocheng.

With his abilities and achievements, he could have been granted a noble title, but he declined and instead went to live in seclusion on the shores of the East China Sea.

Rather than endure and compromise in front of others for the sake of wealth and status, he would rather live a life of disdain and unbridled freedom.

At this moment, in the backyard of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, Lu Zhonglian and Xun Kuang were playing Go, neither giving an inch, and they were locked in a fierce battle on the Go board.

Lu Zhonglian placed another piece and said somewhat casually, "I received a letter from Chisongzi earlier, saying that Wuming is coming back."

Xun Kuang, who was pondering his next move, paused slightly, then stroked his beard.

"How strange! He ran away again not long after returning from his studies at the Taoist school, and it's been seven years now. He's finally deigned to come back and visit!"

"Yes! There has been no news for so many years. In the letter, Chisongzi told me that Wuming has taken on a disciple, which really surprised me."

Lu Zhonglian seemed to miss the days when Wuming was still a Confucian scholar.

Xun Kuang smiled with satisfaction after hearing this: "Wu Ming's judgment is exceptionally high, and those who are chosen by him are no ordinary people."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhonglian nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Xun Kuang suddenly thought of something and narrowed his eyes.

"Chishongzi suddenly wrote to you, surely not to inform us of this matter?"

"You guessed right, a disciple of the Taoist Heavenly Sect also returned with Wuming this time."

"A disciple of the Heavenly Sect?"

Xun Kuang nodded slightly after hearing this, and then placed another piece on the chessboard.

The Taoists often send people to the Confucian schools to learn, just as the Confucian schools often send people to the Taoist schools to learn. So it's not surprising that this time they sent a disciple of the Heavenly Sect who rarely goes out.

However, when he saw the expression on Lu Zhonglian's face, he realized that this time seemed a little different.

"Is there something special about this disciple of the Heavenly Sect?"

“It’s really special.”

Lu Zhonglian picked up a chess piece and rubbed it in his hand. As he thought about where to place it, he began to explain.

"Legend has it that seventeen years ago, Master Beiming found an infant outside the mountain gate, named him Baiyuan, and formally accepted him as his disciple nine years ago. This time, it is this Baiyuan who has come!"

Upon hearing this, Xun Kuang found it rather interesting.

"So you are a disciple of Master Beiming, and Chisongzi's junior brother. No wonder he wrote you a letter in person."

Lu Zhonglian placed another piece, a look of worry on his face.

"According to the date stated in the letter, Wuming and the others should have arrived long ago, but they have not yet shown up. I am a little worried that they may have encountered some accident on the way."

Upon hearing this, Xun Kuang disagreed.

“When Junior Brother Wuming left the Confucian school to study abroad, he had already entered the Innate Realm. With his comprehension and talent, his strength must have greatly improved by now. I think your worries are unnecessary.”

He knew Wuming quite well.
