A month passed. The doors of the secret chamber opened, and Han Changming emerged, his face wreathed in smiles and a faint medicinal fragrance emanating from him.
He had successfully refined the sixth-rank spirit flame. When he tried opening the furnace to concoct pills, he found that his alchemy efficiency had greatly improved. No wonder high-rank alchemists all wanted to obtain a cluster of high-rank spirit flame.
And this was only a sixth-rank spirit flame. If it were a seventh-rank spirit flame, or even an eighth-rank spirit flame, wouldn't that be even more incredible?
Han Changming took out his Communication Disk and contacted Han Changqing. Before long, Han Changqing's voice came from it. "Ninth Brother, you've come out of seclusion?"
"Yes. When does your friends' gathering begin?"
Han Changming asked casually.
"We're at Seven Flame Garden right now. Do you want to come over? It's at the intersection on the street beside our residence, with two stone lions at the entrance."
Han Changqing asked.
"Alright, I'll be right there."
Han Changming agreed, put away the Communication Disk, and walked out.
Not long afterward, he arrived before a manor built of red bricks and glazed tiles. A white-robed young woman with a graceful figure stood at the entrance. Judging from her aura, she was clearly a Void Refinement cultivator.
"My name is Liu Xiang. I have long heard of Fellow Daoist Han's great reputation. The other fellow Daoists have been waiting for quite some time. Please come in."
The young woman in white introduced herself and made an inviting gesture, her manner exceedingly warm.
Though they were both Void Refinement cultivators, their status and standing differed. With Han Changming's skill in alchemy, he would be an honored guest at any gathering of alchemists.
Han Changming nodded and followed the young woman
