Testing Part 1
Mira walked towards a small cave in the mountain that currently housed Maria and Celaine. She found that both of them were currently healing from their injuries so she just disregarded them and walked towards a small corner of the cave to begin consolidating her foundation, fully integrating the blood-infused Qi she gathered after killing the tiger, seeing if she can find a way to control Yin Fire separately, and finally testing how useful absorbing Qi from a beast core will be.
The first thing she went into was integrating the Qi she absorbed from the tiger's blood. She first took a small drop of Qi and began just trying to forcefully shove it into the Qi she's already absorbed and integrated into her body.
As she assumed, the two were like water and oil; they just don't mix, at least not easily. She essentially has to try and convert oil into water which already sounds annoyingly tedious.
