Translator: Sissy That Walk
Before heading for Yunshang City, Ye Lingyue made a trip to the Black Valley .
She let Lan Cai'er wait outside the valley and then went inside to pick up the cannibal flower Little Qiutian .
Several months pa.s.sed and Little Qiutian became taller, reaching almost 2 meters in height .
After the black fog dispersed, the valley recovered the former quietness .
Seeing the owner it had not seenfor long, Little Qiutian giggled, waving the leaves joyfully .
“Master, you are terrific . You have killed the Demon Wolf . ”
Little Qiutian had been staying in the Black Valley . One day, suddenly, the black fog and the Demon Eye both disappeared . At that time, she knew that Ye Lingyue must have killed the Demon Wolf .
“Little creature, stop flattering me . I found the Spatial Piercing Bow but did not use it to kill the Demon Wolf . Someone else did it . ” Ye Lingyue dared not claim the credit since the Demon Wolf was killed by Wu Chong .
“Not killed by you?” Little Qiutian was in great shock . Except the Spatial Piercing Bow, what else can defeat the Demon Eye?
Little Qiutian was quite puzzled .

Demons were different from human beings . They had great vitality and could return to normal after resting even if they only had the last bit of soul left .
Earlier, even the 3 major sects were not able to finish off the Demon Wolf, thus sealing it in the Black Valley .
As the guardian of the seal in the Black Valley, Little Qiutian was sure that the breath of the Demon Wolf had disappeared completely .
“Little Qiutian, the Demon Wolf is truly powerful . What is it? Why have the demons appeared on the continent?” Ye Lingyue had never heard about sky demons .
“Master, I am sorry that I cannot tell you . You will know about it when you reach a certain level of power acc.u.mulation . Moreover, the Demon Wolf is just the beginning . If you want to know more, you must work harder . ” Little Qiutian did not want to answer Ye Lingyue's question directly .
Ye Lingyue thought of what Yunsheng said in the end when they met earlier .
“Qing Continent is just a small place and there is vast s.p.a.ce beyond the continent . There are powerful sky and land limits . Only when you exceed the Divine Realm can you peep into those secrets . ”
“The ordinary people could not access the limits . Access might court death . ”
Thinking of these words, Ye Lingyue understood why Little Qiutian could not answer her question .
She did not ask further and then put Little Qiutian back into the Red Mist Sky .

Upon entering the Red Mist Sky, Little Qiutian could not help cheering .
After bearing the black fog in the Black Valley for so many days, Little Qiutian missed Ye Lingyue's Red Mist Sky a lot .
Upon entering the Red Mist Sky, Little Qiutian saw a number of fruit trees . Different from those planted by Ye Lingyue before, they were lush and had a lot of ripe fruits .
There was plentiful spiritual air inside, even more than in the Star Cave .
After moving in a fruit tree, Ye Lingyue also used the kernel to plant a lot more .
Several months had pa.s.sed and the fruits grew ripe, smelling nice and attractive .
Needless to say, these were the Red Fruit Trees Ye Lingyue grabbed from the Star Cave .
Earlier, when she was in the Star Cave, these fruits were Ye Lingyue's main food . She had looked through all data including even the Red Mist Notes and Five Poison Record but could not find any traces of the fruit . Surprisingly, Little Qiutian knew about it .
Different from Little Squeak who was easily confused, Little Qiutian was formed by the ancient primal beast Maiden Qiutian . Every time it grew, it would recover part of the maiden's memories .

Similar to Maiden Qiutian, the Chaos Red Fruit Tree was also a species left from the ancient times .
In the ancient times, it was called the G.o.d Tree .
“It tastes really nice . When we were in the Star Cave, Little Qiutian and I ate it every day . ” Ye Lingyue did not know about the fruit and was only impressed by its good taste .
“Um . . . Master, you are too wasteful . If you eat it raw, you can only absorb 1/100 of its essence . The best way is to make it into wine . The wine is great nutrition for alchemists and can dramatically improve the Star Energy . ” Little Qiutian was shocked by how its master ate the fruit wastefully .
Hearing the words of “Star Energy”, Ye Lingyue thought of something and took out a crystal ball .
The ball fell from Xue Pianran's hands in chaos when Ye Lingyue was quarreling with her on the street .
At that time, Ye Lingyue did not know much about the Star Energy but was sure that the crystal ball was something fantastic since it was owned by Xue Pianran . Then Ye Lingyue took away the ball . Today, she thought of the ball once hearing what Little Qiutian said .
“The Star Energy is the higher level of power than the spiritual energy after an alchemist exceeds the Nine Cauldrons . Only when mastering the Star Energy can an alchemist become a master alchemist and make the real cauldron . In other words, get enlightenment from the Star Energy is a key step to becoming a master alchemist . ”
Little Qiutian used a simple example to make the idea get across to Ye Lingyue .
Ye Lingyue was quite excited .

She was already the Eight Cauldron alchemist now . She had heard before that the turning from a Nine Cauldron alchemist to a master alchemist was a life-or-death stage for all alchemists on the continent .
A great number of alchemists spent all their life looking for a way to become master alchemists . However, only 1/10,000 of them could make it .
Otherwise, there would be more master alchemists in addition to Marquis Xia in Da Xia . Ye Lingyue's master Longyu and Hong Mingyue's grandfather Zhuge Yi both remained the Nine Cauldron alchemists and could not exceed that level for all their life .
It was because most people could not feel the Star energy for all their life .
One major reason why Xue Pianran was chosen as the Sacred Maiden of the Dan Palace was that she was different from others at a young age and could feel the existence of the Star Energy then .
“Master, whether you can learn the Star Energy depends on whether you can feel it . If you want to know whether you can feel it, you just need to inject your spiritual energy into this crystal ball . Similar to Dan pills, the Star Energy is also divided into 3 categories: blue, yellow and red . Among them, the red Star Energy is the highest level . ” Little Qiutian reminded Ye Lingyue .
Ye Lingyue nervously licked her lips and injected her spiritual energy into the crystal ball .
After a long while, there was no reaction from the ball which remained as pure as before .
Ye Lingyue clearly remembered that the color inside the ball was yellow when Xue Pianran used it . This proved that Xue Pianran had the mid-level Star Energy .
Ye Lingyue was somewhat disappointed . Did it mean that she could not feel the Star Energy? In that case, she could not become a master alchemist for all her life .
If she could not become a master alchemist, how could she fight with Chen Hongru and the Dan Palace of North Qing and take revenge for her ancestor Ye Wuming?
