Chapter 42: Vajra Indestructible

Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Vajra Indestructible

[Congratulations to the host for successfully marrying! You have obtained Tier One of the Vajra Indestructible Skill!]

Ye Yunyi stared at the light screen, stunned.

’What’s this?!’

’Vajra Indestructible?’

In that moment, he felt a surge of power course through his body.

Ye Yunyi then made a fist and felt his muscle with his other hand.

It was like steel!

Rock solid!

’Whoa!’

Ye Yunyi then went out of the room, took out his Battle Axe, and swung it at his own arm.

It actually made a sound like clashing steel!

Ye Yunyi looked at the light screen.

[Name: Ye Yunyi]

[Height: 185cm]

[Tier: Mid-Golden Stage]

[Skills: Rapid Absorption, Divine-level Hunting Skill, Second Stage of Nine Nether Qi, Divine-level Body Technique, First Stage of Vajra Indestructible]

[Weapon: Tier One War Axe]

[Artifacts: 19 Divine-level Exotic Beast Control Pills]

’This is good.’

’This thing is an all-around enhancement!’

’Not just my arms!’

The next moment, the light screen popped up again!

[Congratulations to the host’s wife for successfully getting pregnant! You have been rewarded with the Divine-level Alchemy Skill!]

Hm?

’Now this is interesting!’

’Alchemy?!’

’Is it what I think it is?’

Then, Ye Yunyi read the explanation for this Skill on the screen.

Simply put, it involved using Mutant Plants and Exotic Beast Crystal Cores, along with some supplementary materials, to refine them.

The resulting medicines could have functions like enhancing strength, healing, and so on!

But in terms of just enhancing strength, the effects of the refined medicine far surpassed directly absorbing an Exotic Beast Crystal Core!

Moreover, for ordinary Mutants, they didn’t have a Skill like Ye Yunyi’s Rapid Absorption!

The refined medicine would also allow them to quickly absorb the Energy from within the Crystal Cores.

It was a rare and valuable item for them.

Of course, it was a valuable item for Ye Yunyi as well!

Then, a wealth of knowledge flooded into Ye Yunyi’s mind.

Recipes!

And other details!

In an instant, Ye Yunyi had become a Master Alchemist!

He thought for a moment. ’There’s really no need to use Alchemy on Low-tier Exotic Beast Crystal Cores.’

’I might as well try refining something with some of the mid-to-high-level recipes.’

With that, Ye Yunyi went out.

Bai Zhixi watched as a radiant Ye Yunyi came down from upstairs.

She lowered her head and whispered to Zhou Huaiwei beside her, "Sister Zhou, I suspect my husband might be able to perform Yin Yang Replenishment. How is it that he comes down every day so full of vigor, like he’s been reborn!"

Zhou Huaiwei: "..."

’Ah!’

’It might actually be true!’

Before she could say anything, she saw Ye Yunyi walking toward them.

He came up to Bai Zhixi and gave her waist a little squeeze.

Bai Zhixi trembled involuntarily and looked up at Ye Yunyi, a guilty expression on her face.

"What bad things were you saying about me?"

A half-smile played on Ye Yunyi’s lips as he looked at Bai Zhixi.

Bai Zhixi’s face instantly turned red. "N-Nothing!"

"You think I can’t hear you? No need to suspect, I’ll just have to show you!" After speaking, Ye Yunyi hoisted Bai Zhixi onto his shoulder and headed upstairs.

No matter how much Bai Zhixi struggled, it was useless!

「In the afternoon.」

Ye Yunyi and Bai Zhixi finally came downstairs.

The others watched the two of them, the corners of their mouths twitching.

’Only a Mutant like Little Sister Bai has the strength for such a great battle!’

’The rest of us would have probably surrendered long ago!’

"Come on, you’re coming with me to where we stored those resources from yesterday. I need to pick some things out for an experiment."

Ye Yunyi said, pulling Bai Zhixi along.

Hearing this, Bai Zhixi felt utterly helpless. She was exhausted, feeling as if she had just fought a frantic battle against a powerful Exotic Beast!

But there was nothing she could do now!

She could only follow him!

So, Ye Yunyi and Bai Zhixi mounted a Wind-Chasing Leopard and headed toward the place where the resources were stored.

After they entered, Bai Zhixi looked at all the things inside. Even though she had seen it all yesterday, seeing it again was still quite shocking!

There was just so much stuff!

Following the ideas in his mind, Ye Yunyi began to browse.

He started picking out Mutant Plants and various other materials.

A short while later, Ye Yunyi had selected a batch of ingredients.

He handed them to Bai Zhixi.

"Honey, what are all these things for?" Bai Zhixi asked, looking at the items with a puzzled expression. What was the point of gathering all these completely unrelated things?

Ye Yunyi patted her head. "Alchemy. Ever heard of it?"

Hearing Ye Yunyi’s words, Bai Zhixi’s eyes widened in an instant. She could hardly believe what she had just heard!

Alchemy!

It was something she had actually heard of before!

After the apocalypse began, some people discovered that by refining Mutant Plants and Crystal Cores together, they could create certain medicines!

These medicines not only had various effects, but they could also enhance one’s strength and speed up absorption!

They were truly valuable items!

However, in this apocalyptic world, creating such things came at a great cost. First, one had to experiment with different combinations of Mutant Plants and Crystal Cores!

Moreover, there were all sorts of other details to consider!

Examples of failure were everywhere!

Normally, Alchemists could only be found in medium to large-sized fortresses.

And!

These Alchemists were a scarce resource!

They were all honored guests of the major families!

Thinking this, she wanted to persuade him against it, but seeing how motivated he was, and then recalling what had happened earlier...

’I should probably just be obedient.’

’Otherwise, if I get ’punished’ like that again, even as a Late-Silver Stage Mutant, I’ll be completely wrecked!’

"That’s about everything!"

A little later, Ye Yunyi looked at the raw materials he had selected for several different recipes.

He then took Bai Zhixi back home.

Next, he found the corpse of a Vajra Ant.

After cutting it open, he fashioned it into a large cauldron!

Then, he started a fire!

Meanwhile, Zhou Huaiwei and the others saw Ye Yunyi furiously working on something.

They started to ask questions.

"I’m performing Alchemy."

Alchemy?!

The women were astonished to hear Ye Yunyi’s words.

They then gathered around like curious children. How could they miss out on something so interesting?

Seeing the way her sisters were acting, Bai Zhixi slapped her forehead.

’What a waste of precious things!’

’A total waste!’

’Isn’t this just messing around?’

’My husband isn’t an Alchemist. How could he possibly succeed on his first try?’

She then looked reluctantly at the Mutant Plants and Crystal Cores in her hands.

’All these things are going to be wasted!’

With that, she put the ingredients down and went back to her room!

After all, she couldn’t bear to watch such a scene of precious resources being squandered!

Outside, a short while later, Ye Yunyi began the refining process.

Zhou Huaiwei and the others watched from the side, helping out with small tasks.

Their eyes were filled with anticipation.

Several hours passed.

Bai Zhixi was in her room. She was just about to go down and check on him. ’He hasn’t finished after all this time, so it must have been a failure.’

’I should still go down and comfort him.’

But!

The moment she opened the door!

An extraordinary fragrance wafted toward her!

Her pupils contracted sharply.

Then she dashed madly toward the courtyard!
