Chapter 1462 — Failure in Learning: But Do Not Underestimate This First Step Through the Door — Without a Master, There Would Be Few Indeed Who Could Ever Have Found the Way

Still, though the flame gave off a scorching heat, it did not burn his hand, and judged by Wei Zhao's naked eye alone it differed greatly from an ordinary flame! An ordinary flame was a pale red-yellow, while the flame above his palm was deep red, rather like the color produced by burning chemicals.
But this was no chemical; it was pill fire transformed from the true qi within his body. If chemicals could take its place, things would be far easier — and the profession of alchemist would not be so prized.
The little flame in Wei Zhao's hand was rather amusing. Wei Zhao tried to quicken the catalyzing of true qi and make the flame burn more fiercely, but the result was merciless: Wei Zhao failed!
Wei Zhao still could not control the speed at which the flame was catalyzed; in his impatience, the flame in his hand actually guttered out!
"..." Wei Zhao smiled bitterly. It seemed he too had succumbed to the fault of impatience: no sooner had he catalyzed a true flame than he wanted to govern its size. Truly a bit rash.
"Jiji—" The Heavenly Thunder Pig squealed twice off to the side, as though mocking Wei Zhao's failure.
"Dead pig, what are you sniggering at? Don't you want to level up?" Wei Zhao, already in a foul mood, glared at the Heavenly Thunder Pig and threatened.
"..." The Heavenly Thunder Pig lowered its head, somewhat aggrieved, and did not dare say another word, thinking to itself: you were already a little worse than your previous master; that master surpassed you in both personal strength and cultivation talent!
