The Magic Testing Crystal is used for Magic Enlightenment.
In the past three years, Yun Sheng has repeatedly tested it at the Banana Leaf Temple, and every time, the crystal dimmed without a glimmer of light.
Yun Sheng didn't understand why his father took out the Magic Testing Crystal again.
"I know what you're thinking. In fact, the Magic Testing Crystal is not used to detect Magic Elements, but to test the Magic Soul," Yun Canghai, at this moment, appeared solemn and reverent in his clear eyes.
At this moment, Yun Canghai revealed his essence as an outstanding Mage.
He came from a distinguished background, and the variety of magic-related information he was exposed to was vastly different from that of the backward Banana Leaf Temple, as different as heaven and earth.
The words he spoke next completely overturned Yun Sheng's understanding of the magical world.
Strictly speaking, this world is not lacking in Magic Elements.
In the air, in water, in soil, every place is filled with Magic Elements. Mages are different from ordinary people in their ability to use Magic Elements.
And this ability to utilize Magic Elements, generally speaking, is the Magic Soul.
The Magic Soul is like a power generator in Yun Sheng's modern understanding, turning various natural resources (Magic Elements) into Magic Power, storing it inside the Mage's body, and transforming it into various powerful spells.
There are many factors that determine the strength of one's Magic Soul. In addition to talent, many people's Magic Souls come from inheritance.
This is why many ancient Mage families continue to produce equally powerful Mages.
However, there is also a situation called Magic Soul mutation, which occurs when a Mage and a Martial Artist, a Mage, or a Summoner combine, resulting in a mutation of the Magic Soul.
Magic Soul mutation can be good or bad. A good mutation can cultivate a tremendously powerful Magic Soul.
But a bad mutation can lead to the birth of magic blinds, that is, descendants of Mages without a Magic Soul.
Yun Sheng is undoubtedly an example of the bad kind of Magic Soul mutation.
Because both Yun Canghai and Hu Jiusheng are Mages with exceptional talent, and Hu Jiusheng herself is a Scepter-level Summoner rarely seen on the continent, but their daughter Yun Sheng's Magic Soul underwent an unfavorable mutation.
After hearing Yun Canghai's words, Yun Sheng fell silent. She finally understood why she couldn't congeal magic despite taking Moonlight Grass—it was because she lacked a Magic Soul.
Like a soulless Puppet, she would never be able to practice magic in her lifetime.
"It is for this reason that I have always opposed your learning of magic," Yun Canghai stroked Yun Sheng's head.
He felt guilty towards Yun Sheng; he and Jiusheng were a union cursed.
"Fortunately, you have a talent for medicine. Your Hemostatic Agent is the best quality I have ever seen. I have decided that in a few days, I will take you away from Banana Leaf Village, and we will go to the Imperial Capital, Yujing City, in Great Zhou," a Hemostatic Agent unrecognizable to the villagers of Banana Leaf Village, Yun Canghai recognized it at a glance.
For the first time, he truly recognized his daughter's talent in medicine.
This child should not be obscured by her own downfall; she should be recommended by the family to enter the Medicine Emperor Pavilion for more systematic medical study.
Even if she is destined never to be related to magic, she can still gain attention from her family and the country with her talent in medicine.
That's the last thing he, as a father, could do for her.
Yujing, that is where the Imperial Capital of Great Zhou City is located.
Wuji Continent, a land where powerful states abound, is dotted with a multitude of large duchies and small countries, among which Great Zhou, Hou Qin, Penglai, Xianju, and Tang Yuan are the five most renowned vassal states.
Six-year-old Yun Sheng, who has never ventured further than half a day's journey to Taishang Town, is unexpectedly told by her father, Yun Canghai, that they would leave Banana Leaf Village and head to the Imperial Capital, Yujing City of Great Zhou. She cannot help but be astonished.
Any normal child would be overjoyed at such news, yet Yun Sheng, who has lived two lifetimes and is a doctor with incredibly acute senses, senses something amiss with Yun Canghai.
In her father's words, there is no joy, but rather a trace of melancholy.
Yun Sheng is very familiar with this tone. In her previous life, her grandfather had called her to his bedside a few days before his passing, speaking in a similar tone, saying similar things.
A foreboding feeling lingers in her heart, refusing to dissipate for a long time.
"Father, why must we go to Yujing City?" Yun Sheng has never heard Yun Canghai speak of her own family background; she had thought that she only had her father as family.
"Our Yun Family is a noble family in Yujing. Your grandfather, your second uncle, and your third aunt all live in Shengjing, and they are all well-known martial artists in Great Zhou," explained Yun Canghai, unable to overlook the fleeting worry in his daughter's eyes.
Sheng'er is very sensible, remaining calm and collected even upon receiving such momentous news.
Over the years, his deliberate coldness had ultimately cultivated her ability to remain unruffled by the affairs of the world.
With her temperament, even after returning to Yujing and facing possible family upheavals, she would surely be able to handle them with ease.
Having made up his mind, Yun Canghai was firm in his decision, leaving Yun Sheng with no choice but to follow, even though she didn't have any more excuses.
Nevertheless, Yun Sheng specifically asked Yun Canghai for an extra half month; she must make clear arrangements regarding the hemostatic agent with the villagers.
Considering how the village chief of Banana Leaf Village had looked after them for all these years, Yun Canghai agreed to Yun Sheng's request.
With mixed feelings, Yun Sheng brought the remaining half bottle of hemostatic agent to the village chief's grandfather.
Upon learning of Yun Sheng and her father's impending departure, the village chief was reluctant to part with them, but still decided to send the hemostatic agent to Taishang Town the next day to appraise its quality.
Despite Yun Canghai's prohibition against visiting the Magic Temple, Yun Sheng still snuck away to the temple.
Concerned about Ye Beiming's injuries, despite considering the boy to have an irritating mouth, she, as a dedicated doctor, needed to ensure that her postoperative patient could bounce back to full vitality.
"Healed up already? Your constitution is formidable; you're like a cockroach," Yun Sheng noted, surprised to find Ye Beiming's serious injuries had recovered significantly overnight, his healing ability comparable to that of Little Black.
Little Black was a demon beast, after all, whose constitution was naturally much better than that of humans.
Ye Beiming, with a sullen face, expressed no gratitude as he casually threw out a set of beast bones, "These bones from a frenzied corpse bull shall serve as your consultation fee."
He had noticed that Yun Sheng had used a knife made from the fang of a golden rhinoceros pig to excise his necrotic flesh.
The corner of Yun Sheng's mouth twitched. What kind of taste did this man have, to give something like this as a gift?
However, Yun Sheng had misunderstood Ye Beiming. The Ye Fox, having lived for ten years, was giving a gift to a girl for the first time, not knowing what would be appropriate to give.
Moreover, Yun Sheng's preferences couldn't be measured by the standards of ordinary girls.
But after she touched the corpse bull bones, which were as white as jade, her face blossomed into a smile.
These bones could definitely be used to craft a set of bone needles or even bone knives of various sizes, far superior to the fangs of the golden rhinoceros pig. By her estimation, they must be the bones of a demon beast that was at least a hundred years old.
"How could I accept this? I'll just reluctantly take it," said Yun Sheng as she deftly took the beast bones, "Although your constitution is good, you still need to be careful not to get poisoned again. Otherwise, once I leave, there will be no one to treat your illness."
