Sword Elder, Gathered Medicinal Ingredients, Refining Pills
"That's right, this is my apprentice Wang Chen."
Medicine Elder was not surprised and answered directly.
"Xiao Chen, this is Sword Elder from the Inner Academy. He and I are sworn brothers."
You can just call him Uncle Jian.
Medicine Elder gave Wang Chen a meaningful look.
Wang Chen naturally understood what his master meant.
I just want to build some connections for myself, which will facilitate future development.
Although Wang Chen possessed a cheat-like advantage, he still highly approved of Medicine Elder's actions.
Having more friends means having more options.
Moreover, the minimum requirement to become Inner Academy elder is to be Dou Wang.
Sword Elder's unconventional behavior, coupled with the sharp aura he had sensed earlier, clearly indicated that he was a master.
"Uncle Jian."
Wang Chen didn't hold back and greeted him respectfully.
"You old codger, you really know how to give me a hard time."
Sword Elder did not refuse Medicine Elder's arrangement.
However, he still jokingly scolded Medicine Elder.
"Since you've addressed me as Uncle Jian, I certainly won't be stingy."
Consider this my gift to you."
A sword-shaped piece of jade floated directly in front of Wang Chen.
"This is too valuable."
Medicine Elder saw this thing, his eyes narrowed, and he immediately refused.
"Stop talking nonsense, this isn't for you, it's for the junior."
"Besides, this thing isn't very useful to me anymore."
At this point, Sword Elder finally finished his comprehension and cultivation, and turned around.
At this moment, Wang Chen also saw Sword Elder's face.
His expression was cool and sharp, yet he was extremely handsome.
The most distinctive feature is his eyebrows.
It has a sword-like eyebrow.
"Take it."
Sword Elder spoke again, urging Wang Chen to accept the jade.
"Um."
This time, Medicine Elder nodded as well.
"Thank you, Uncle Jian."
Wang Chen did not hesitate, thanked him, and took the sword-shaped jade stone into his hand.
The moment Wang Chen touched the jade, he sensed a sharp edge.
"This is Sword Stone, which was one of my serendipitous encounters back then."
It can hone Dou Qi and allow one to comprehend Sword Intent.
Seeing Wang Chen hold the jade in his hand, Sword Elder spoke up again to explain.
"This is a treasure, and it's perfect for you."
At this moment, Medicine Elder also chimed in.
"Let's go get a cup of tea."
Sword Elder, having finished his contemplation, also extended an invitation.
"I've come here because I genuinely need your help, not for a gift."
At this moment, Medicine Elder also remembered the main purpose of his visit.
Do you have any Sword Spirit Grass?
Medicine Elder stated the purpose of this trip directly.
His relationship with Sword Elder was a true bond of life and death, so naturally he wouldn't hold back.
If we're talking about who's most likely to possess the Sword Spirit Grass within the Inner Academy, then Sword Elder is definitely the one.
"I still have one Sword Spirit Grass, which I'm growing in the backyard."
This stuff doesn't have much effect on me anymore, so there's only one left."
Sword Elder, who had stopped, also spoke up to explain.
"That's troublesome."
There was no talk of exchanging rewards or anything like that. Medicine Elder and Sword Elder had known each other for so many years, and Elder Jian was very familiar with Sword Elder's temperament.
If they were to offer something in exchange, it would be a slap in the face to Sword Elder, who would not only be unhappy but would also become furious.
After entering the Inner Academy, Sword Elder made no attempt to stand on ceremony and directly invited Medicine Elder to sit down, then took out a pot of tea.
"I'll do it, I'll do it."
Wang Chen stepped forward, took the teapot, and personally poured tea for the two elders.
Sword Elder nodded and did not refuse.
After pouring tea for the two elders, Wang Chen poured himself a cup and then sat down beside them without disturbing their conversation.
During his conversation with Sword Elder, Medicine Elder also mentioned Wang Chen, a very talented disciple, from time to time.
The implication was that Wang Chen was trying to build up some connections.
During the exchange, Wang Chen also gained a general understanding of Sword Elder's strength.
Peak Dou Huang and possesses the Clear Wind Sword Intent, enabling him to cut through space. His combat power is comparable to that of Dou Zong expert.
Moreover, he is only one step away from breaking through to the Dou Zong.
With just one Sect-Breaking Pill, one can absolutely break through to the Dou Zong.
If you don't have the Sect-Breaking Pill, then you'll need to find a spark of Spiritual Spark yourself.
Once Spiritual Spark occurs, breakthroughs are usually a natural progression.
The reason Wang Chen was able to know these things was mainly because Medicine Elder and Sword Elder had no intention of hiding anything and deliberately revealed more during their conversation.
After learning this information, Wang Chen sighed, "Jia Nan Academy truly lives up to its reputation as the top academy in the Northwest; it is indeed a place where hidden talents abound."
About two hours later, Medicine Elder and Sword Elder also finished their conversation.
After obtaining the Sword Spirit Grass, Wang Chen and the others did not delay Sword Elder's enlightenment for too long.
"Master, now that I have the Sword Spirit Grass, I'm going into seclusion to cultivate."
"Um."
After leaving, Wang Chen exchanged a few words with Medicine Elder, and then they parted ways to return to the Kunlun Sect to cultivate.
Inside the Kunlun Sect's Cultivation Room, Wang Chen sat cross-legged in the center, beginning to examine his belongings.
"There's only one Sword Spirit Grass left, so it seems we have to choose the safest approach."
After carefully examining the ingredients for the Emperor-Breaking Pill, Wang Chen made up his mind.
If he had a few more Sword Spirit Grass, he would definitely experiment more with the abilities of his Golden Finger to see if he could refine a few more Emperor-Breaking Pill.
After all, this kind of elixir has a very high market value within the Jia Nan Academy.
There are more than two palms' worth of elders at the Peak Dou King.
With the allure of the Emperor-Breaking Pill, Wang Chen could definitely exchange it for a great many treasures.
Unfortunately, there's only one Sword Spirit Grass left, so we must proceed with caution.
If the Sword Spirit Grass is damaged, then there will be no way to refine the Emperor-Breaking Pill for the time being.
For the sake of his mentor who loved him so much, Wang Chen decided that earning a little less was no big deal.
Anyway, we can continue to make money if we find suitable medicinal herbs in the future.
After sitting cross-legged for a while to adjust, Wang Chen began the formal refining process.
With his current alchemy skills, he can still guarantee a 100% success rate in Emperor-Breaking Pill.
With the assistance of ten Flame Spirit, a large amount of medicinal herbs were refined into powder. Finally, under Wang Chen's careful control, all the medicinal powders began to merge together.
"Ha!!!"
The instant all the medicinal powders were completely fused together, Wang Chen immediately increased his control over his soul, ensuring that all the medicinal properties were fully concentrated within the pill, without wasting a single drop of energy.
Under the scorching heat of the flames, the originally irregularly shaped pills became perfectly round.
It eventually became a Tier 6 Emperor-Breaking Pill that exuded a medicinal fragrance.
With Wang Chen's Golden Finger and the Flame Elf providing cover, the refining of pills remained undetected.
