With great gain and joy, Jiang Donghua immediately wanted to go to the teacher's residence and share the good news with Elder Mo Xuan.

With brisk steps, even a little impatient, I walked through the quiet paths of the Alchemy Department and arrived outside the familiar elegant courtyard.

However, before he stepped into the courtyard, he saw a figure lying leisurely on the grand master's chair in the courtyard, slowly swaying with the slight squeaking sound of the chair.

If it's not Elder Mo Xuan, who is it?

His image at this moment was completely different from the majestic and majestic appearance he had when he made the breakthrough yesterday. He was wearing a loose casual robe and holding a cup of steaming tea between his fingers. He looked extremely comfortable, as if he was just a wealthy man who had retired and enjoyed a comfortable life.

When he heard the footsteps, he didn't even raise his eyelids. He just curled the corner of his mouth and asked lazily with a hint of pride that he had already expected.

"Humph, you brat, you're back? How about that little stove I gave you, is it useful?"

Jiang Donghua looked at the teacher's appearance and felt funny in his heart, but he also stepped forward respectfully and nodded seriously.

"The jade slips given by the teacher are indeed miraculous and have saved the disciples countless efforts."

He paused and was about to say <Burning Heaven Furnace Art>'s name.

But before he could say anything, Mo Xuan, who was lying on the chair, seemed to have already written a script. He was minding his own business, and with a showoff tone that I had known for a long time, he suddenly sat up straighter in his chair and guessed with bright eyes.

"Hey! Let me guess! Did you get a Earth-tier Low Grade technique? Tsk tsk, not bad, good. Although it is only Earth-tier Low Grade, it is enough for you not to worry about the technique until Dou Zun! Keep going steadily, the future is promising!"

He stroked his non-existent beard, obviously very satisfied with his assists and his apprentice's luck.

However, the scene he expected of his apprentice bursting into tears of gratitude and admiration did not appear.

Jiang Donghua, standing in front of him, just shook his head slowly and firmly.

"Huh?"

Elder Mo Xuan The swaying Taishi chair stopped instantly, the pride on his face froze, and his brows furrowed.

"Isn't it Earth-tier Low Grade? Is it the top-level Profound-tier High Grade? No, my jade slip should only react to fluctuations above the ground level. Is there something wrong? Did you get something else?"

There was a hint of doubt and confusion in his tone.

Just when he was thinking wildly, Jiang Donghua finally stopped trying to be pretentious and spoke calmly, but his voice reached Mo Xuan's ears clearly.

"Teacher, what this disciple has obtained is not the Earth-tier Low Grade technique."

Elder Mo Xuan was about to nod and say that Profound-tier High Grade was okay, but heard Jiang Donghua continue.

"By luck, I got a Earth-tier Mid Grade technique - <Burning Heaven Furnace Art>."

"What's in the ground floor?!"

Elder Mo Xuan As if struck by an invisible thunderbolt, he suddenly jumped up from the Taishi chair!

The movement was so big that he almost overturned the coffee table next to him.

I couldn't even hold the tea cup firmly in my hand, and I didn't even notice that the tea spilled out.

He widened his eyes and stared at Jiang Donghua, as if to confirm whether he heard correctly.

"You, tell me again, kid? What level is it?!"

"Earth-tier Mid Grade,<Burning Heaven Furnace Art>."

Jiang Donghua confirmed again. Seeing the teacher's rare loss of composure, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Holy shit!!!"

After receiving the confirmation, Elder Mo Xuan directly uttered a curse word that was extremely inconsistent with his identity. The expression on his face instantly changed from shock to ecstasy, as if he was the one who obtained the technique!

He walked around Jiang Donghua twice, looking up and down, as if he was meeting his apprentice for the first time, and kept mumbling.

"Earth-tier Mid Grade! It's actually Earth-tier Mid Grade! Hahaha! Okay! Good boy! Your luck is really incredible! You didn't pick up a treasure, you just stabbed the treasure's nest! Hahaha!"

He patted Jiang Donghua hard on the shoulder and was so excited that he couldn't contain himself.

The value of a Earth-tier Mid Grade technique far exceeds that of Earth-tier Low Grade, and it is enough to be used as an inherited treasure of any major force!

This means that Jiang Donghua's starting point and future potential are a whole higher level than he expected!

After the ecstasy, Elder Mo Xuan breathed a long and joyful breath, and his whole body relaxed. His eyes were full of relief and a sense of relief.

"Okay! Okay! With this technique, I, I can really leave with peace of mind!"

What he said was profound. It was no longer the longing for the future, but a sense of complete peace of mind and trust.

The disciple has grown up, and not only is his strength superior to his peers, but he has also acquired such a powerful basic technique. As long as he does not die prematurely, his achievements will surely be limitless in the future.

As a teacher, his last worries have been put down, and he can go to the broader Central Plains world without any worries.

The ecstasy and relief on Elder Mo Xuan's face gradually settled down and turned into a deeper and more complex emotion.

He looked at the beloved disciple in front of him who was about to spread his wings and fly high. There was pride, reluctance, and a sense of determination in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he slowly raised his hand and his eyes fell on a ring on his skinny finger that was simple in shape, dark in color, and seemed to be able to absorb the surrounding light.

This Storage Ring has been with him for many years and has almost become a part of his body.

Without any hesitation, he took off the dark Storage Ring from his fingers with a single swipe.

The moment the ring left the finger, it seemed to make an extremely slight buzzing sound, as if some kind of restraint had been released.

Elder Mo Xuan took Jiang Donghua's hand, and solemnly placed the dark Storage Ring, which still had his body temperature, in his palm, and then patted his apprentice's strong arm, his tone pretending to be relaxed, but it was hard to conceal the heaviness in it.

"Boy, my master's family is not very rich, but what I have saved over the years will be handed over to you from now on."

"In it are all kinds of rare prescriptions and alchemy tips that I have collected throughout my life, as well as a lot of medicinal materials that I packed at the bottom of the box. Some of them I have not even been willing to use. If I encounter difficulties in alchemy in the future, I will read more of the notes inside. It will be more useful than my hundred verbose sentences."

He paused and his voice became a little lower.

"Although Jia Nan Academy is good, it can't protect you for the rest of your life. You really have to make your own way in the future. It's time for me to go to Central Plains and settle some old things that should have been settled long ago."

Jiang Donghua Holding the heavy Storage Ring, which contained the teacher's lifelong efforts, I felt my palms were burning hot.

Hearing the determination in the teacher's words, his heart tightened suddenly, and a bad premonition came to him.

He immediately grabbed Elder Mo Xuan's arm with his backhand and asked eagerly.

"Master! What are you going to do at Central Plains? What is it? Tell the disciple!"

Elder Mo Xuan Seeing the real concern and anxiety in his disciple's eyes, he murmured his lips a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end it just turned into a long sigh and shook his head.

He cast his eyes into the distance and saw the land Central Plains.

"There are some things where knowing too much is not good for you."

His voice was hoarse, but looking at Jiang Donghua's stubborn eyes that refused to give up, he finally softened his heart. In other words, he felt that his apprentice had the right to know a little bit of the truth.
