CHAPTER 559: CHAPTER 573 LI SHAN’S TRANSFORMATION

Li Shan felt that the past hour was the longest period of time in her life.

She turned the entire room upside down but couldn’t find any trace of Mu Can and the other two, as if they had completely vanished from this world.

In the end, with no other option, she could only sit anxiously by the table and wait.

When Mu Can reappeared in the room, Li Shan was so excited she almost cried out; she had thought they would never return.

"It’s alright, there’s no need to worry." Mu Can looked at Li Shan and said, noticing the tear stains in the girl’s eyes.

"Wang Cai, you’re responsible for teaching her some knowledge about arrays. I will refine elixirs for her so she can cultivate."

Mu Can gave his order, knowing that someone who could not even sense spiritual power was not capable of becoming an Array Master.

Although Li Shan was past the prime age for cultivation, turning her into an ordinary cultivator was a simple matter for Mu Can.

"Can I really cultivate?" Li Shan’s eyes widened in surprise. She had thought it impossible for herself to become a cultivator like Mu Can.

"Of course, you can. Though you may not become a top cultivator, it is still enough for you to become an Array Master."

Mu Can spoke. Having decided to help Li Shan, he intended to do it properly.

After all, helping Li Shan was tantamount to helping himself. The General certainly bore them ill will, and at present, Mu Can’s power was far inferior to the General’s, not yet strong enough for a direct confrontation.

"I need a quiet room." Mu Can ordered. Since leaving Sin City, he had not engaged in alchemy, but his knowledge of Alchemy Technique could not be forgotten.

Li Shan brought Mu Can to her practice room, the quietest place she could find.

Mu Can took out his Fire King Cauldron, an artifact that once belonged to Purple Cloud. Seeing the cauldron, he thought of Purple Cloud, who was in secluded cultivation on the first layer.

"Let’s start with refining elixirs." Mu Can shook his head; this was not the time to think about these matters. As long as Purple Cloud was safe, calling her out now might not be a good thing.

After throwing various herbs into the Alchemy Cauldron, Mu Can embarked on his familiar journey of alchemy.

Before long, the lid of the Fire King Cauldron opened, and a series of softly glowing elixirs flew out, landing steadily in Mu Can’s palm.

"One furnace, nine pills; indeed, a few days without refining elixirs and my skills have regressed." Mu Can shook his head as he looked at the elixirs in his hand.

At his peak, a single furnace would have yielded at least thirteen pills, each with an Eight-layered Pill Cloud.

"Never mind, these will do for now." Mu Can said as he looked at the elixirs with an Eight-layered Pill Cloud.

Although such elixirs would be considered treasures in the Supreme Interface, Mu Can was not satisfied with them.

After finding Li Shan, he handed the elixirs over to her. At that moment, she was learning about arrays from Wang Cai.

However, without the ability to sense spiritual power, she could only dryly listen to Wang Cai’s lecture.

"Thank you, teacher." Li Shan bowed to Mu Can after receiving the elixirs. Although Mu Can hadn’t agreed to take her as a disciple, she already considered him her master.

"Take three at a time, and keep the rest for your breakthrough. Remember to prepare clean water when you take them later; the power of these elixirs to Wash Marrow and Remove Hair is quite strong." Mu Can instructed.

These elixirs came from the crazy old demon at the academy and had a dual function unlike ordinary Foundation Establishment Pills: they could also Wash Marrow and Remove Hair.

Such a Foundation Establishment Pill with an Eight-layered Pill Cloud was enough to make the cultivators of the Supreme Interface fight over it.

If a five or six-year-old child were to consume it, it would at least double the child’s future cultivation speed.

"I understand." Li Shan took the elixirs and left the room excitedly. All she could think about was becoming a cultivator quickly to help the City Lord Mansion regain control of the entire city.

"How is she?" Mu Can asked Wang Cai.

Wang Cai knew he was inquiring about Li Shan’s talent and shook his head.

"She’s just average, but very earnest. Even if she can’t become a top Array Master, she’s gained a means of self-protection."

"That’s enough. Later, tell her everything she needs to know. The two of you will accompany me out of the city; I want to see how this Spiritual Artifact really works." Mu Can said.

From his chat with Li Shan, he knew that this world was not as simple as he had imagined.

Not only the ruins left behind but also the extinct cultivation methods and even the power of the great beings to Investigate no man’s lands were all blocked by this world.

Otherwise, the being that abducted him would definitely have been sensed by Er Pi, as their contracts were mutual.

"Hmm, this world does warrant a closer Investigation. Haven’t you noticed that the people here seem to be cut off from the outside world?"

Wang Cai nodded; he had also noticed the abnormalities of this world. At least such Undead Creatures had never been seen by them before.

"This place is indeed a bit different; even the spiritual power of heaven and earth here is unlike any other." Er Lai interjected.

The annoying Toad had slowly learned to integrate itself into Mu Can’s group.

Despite being the highest in Cultivation among all those with Mu Can, it was bound by a contract, forcibly tied to Mu Can.

"Hmm, let’s go out and have a look later. I have an idea; if we can understand the arrays inscribed in this Spiritual Artifact, maybe we can use arrays to enhance ourselves." Mu Can pondered and said.

This was also one of his thoughts. If the Spiritual Artifact was also effective for him, then killing Undead Creatures to increase his own strength was definitely the right choice.

Because no matter where he was, improving his strength was the top priority.

"I’m back." After taking a bath, Li Shan returned to the room.

Mu Can and Wang Cai could feel that some change had taken place in Li Shan, not just a result of the Foundation Establishment Pill, but something else had happened to her.

"Do you feel anything different?" Mu Can asked.

"Yeah, I feel prettier." Li Shan said happily. After washing away the stinky, black substance from her body, she found her skin had improved.

"Anything else?" Mu Can of course knew Li Shan had become prettier, but that wasn’t what he was asking.

"Additionally, I can sense the spiritual power of heaven and earth now. Those little things keep drilling into my body." Li Shan explained.
