Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Super Memory_1

"Ling Xiao doesn’t know anything about pharmacology, so I think it’s best to start with the basics like ’Pharmacology Fundamentals,’ ’Fire Control Technique,’ ’Basic Pill Refining Technique,’ and ’Basic Medicine Refining Technique.’ If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask me,"

Lan Yu’er didn’t turn down Elder Master Yang’s request and even offered some suggestions.

That was because Elder Master Yang had shown her kindness, and she also needed a male disciple to handle some physical tasks.

Of course, what was more important was that Lan Yu’er had developed some interest in Ling Xiao. She really wanted to see what special abilities this genius, who was praised by Elder Master Yang like a beautiful flower, actually possessed.

"Alright, Ling Xiao, for now you’ll learn with Sister Lan. Once your foundation is solid enough, your teacher will impart deeper alchemy and medicine-refining techniques to you."

After finishing his speech, Elder Master Yang actually turned around and left, truly trusting Lan Yu’er.

"That’s great, Ling Xiao! Now we can cultivate together again,"

Dai Yuling said with a carefree tone.

"What’s there to be happy about? Have you mastered all the things I taught you?" Lan Yu’er glanced at Dai Yuling and said.

Dai Yuling stuck out her tongue and hurriedly turned to busy herself.

"You, follow me."

After that, Lan Yu’er led Ling Xiao to the Medicine Hall Library. There were no martial arts secret books here, but there were plenty of books on alchemy and medicine refining.

Goodness gracious, Sister Lan’s ability to attract attention was simply one hundred percent!

Men and women alike turned their heads wherever Lan Yu’er walked by. There was admiration, but even more so, there were the love-struck.

But when they saw Ling Xiao, their gazes sharpened as if he had offended them.

"Who’s that guy, and why is he with Sister Lan Yu’er?"

"Never seen him, must be a new Outer Disciples."

"So Sister Lan likes fresh meat, huh? Sigh, are we too old now?"

"All the good cabbages get hogged by pigs!"

Hearing such comments, Ling Xiao could only sigh inwardly. This was truly an unjust disaster.

Do you really like this popsicle stick that much?

Upon reaching the Medicine Hall Library, Lan Yu’er selected a few books from the shelves. In addition to the ones she previously introduced, there was also a ’Spiritual Herb Catalog’ and a ’Spirit Beast Guide.’

"Don’t underestimate this ’Spiritual Herb Catalog’ and ’Spirit Beast Guide.’ They are the foundation of alchemy and medicine refining. The ’Spiritual Herb Catalog’ records the medicinal properties, growth characteristics, and identification methods of various spiritual herbs discovered so far."

As she handed the books to Ling Xiao, Lan Yu’er explained, "The other book, ’Spirit Beast Guide,’ details the information on various spirit beasts that can be used for medicine, including the parts that can be utilized and their medicinal properties."

"Got it."

Ling Xiao nodded.

"It’s not just about knowing; the key is to memorize everything in these two books as much as possible!"

Lan Yu’er emphasized.

There were other disciples nearby choosing books, most of whom were from the Inner Sect. They couldn’t help but smile wryly when they heard this.

"See? Sister Lan has started to drive people hard again."

"Yeah, even just one of those books would take at least a decade to memorize, and that’s if you have a very good memory. Let alone two."

"Right. I heard Sister Lan herself only remembered about seventy percent of one book, and she’s just familiar with the rest."

"Sigh, that poor kid. How did he offend Sister Lan?"

"Indeed unlucky!"

These discussions, Ling Xiao had already overheard, but he said nothing, only laughing quietly to himself.

Lan Yu’er must have wanted him to know when to back down, and of course, there was also a bit of testing him.

Don’t worry Sister Lan, your junior brother will definitely surprise you.

He smiled, didn’t leave, and simply found a seat to sit down. Then he quickly started to flip through the few books Lan Yu’er had brought over—

Pharmacology Fundamentals, Fire Control Technique, Basic Pill Refining Technique, Basic Medicine Refining Technique.

In just a moment, he had copied the contents of these four books.

Of course, copying was just the beginning.

The books copied into the Mountain and River Martial Soul would meld into his soul, making the knowledge even more secure than memorization.

Besides Fire Control Technique, the other three books were very easy to understand. In the state of Soul Entry, he did not need even a quarter of an hour to fully grasp them all.

The Fire Control Technique was slightly more difficult, dealing with the skill of controlling the flames during the process of pill refinement and medicine preparation.

The content was incredibly complex and detailed, requiring precise control over the type and intensity of the flames for each kind of herb.

To master it completely, one must remember the entire contents of the Spiritual Herb Catalog and the Spirit Beast Guide to control the flames according to the special properties of the ingredients.

Otherwise, errors were very likely to occur.

These two books, the Outer Disciples were normally not qualified to see. However, since Ling Xiao was a man of Elder Master Yang and was brought by Lan Yu’er, the person in charge of the Book Collection Pavilion did not dare to stop him.

Both books contained numerous images and extremely tedious textual information, even involving a great deal of arithmetic problems.

To be honest, as soon as he opened these two books, Ling Xiao realized that the remarks made by the Inner Sect Disciples were not unfounded.

These seemingly thin two volumes actually used a special sealing technique. If treated as regular books, the contents probably wouldn’t fit even in a hundred-square-meter room.

Seeing Ling Xiao’s astonished expression, a smug smile slipped across Lan Yu’er’s lips.

However, the next moment, she was dumbfounded.

So were those Inner Sect Disciples who had been prophesying Ling Xiao’s doom.

Ling Xiao was not really reading—more like glancing through. He had merely flipped through the books casually and then stopped.

"Junior Brother Ling, it’s okay if you can’t remember them. I didn’t expect you to memorize them right now. As long as you can remember them all within ten years, that would be pretty good," Lan Yu’er said coldly.

Ling Xiao smiled, closed the books decisively, and then returned all of the books.

"That lad is smart; knowing he can’t do it, he admits defeat early. Otherwise, the worst is yet to come."

"That’s called having self-awareness."

"Yes, there’s no need to compare with Sister Lan, that genius. Otherwise, it would be maddening."

When the Inner Sect Disciples saw Ling Xiao returning the books, they all praised him, believing his act to be a clever move.

But Ling Xiao had no time to listen to their praises. In his mind, he was repeatedly recalling the contents of the two books.

It was too astonishing.

No wonder these two books were not allowed for Outer Sect Disciples to see. To compile such volumes must have taken many people’s painstaking efforts.

Many of the herbs and spirit beasts recorded within were actually very common things, but to the ignorant, they would appear as trash.

If you understood them, you would know that what others considered trash was treasure. You could always be one step ahead in everything, which was like having a powerful cheat code.
