Inside the room, Su Shi'er's avatar, who was seated in meditation regulating his breath, opened his eyes at the sound.
"Enter!"
As the voice rang out, he formed a hand seal.
A moment later, a plainly dressed middle-aged female cultivator hurried over.
Before she even reached Su Shi'er, she swiftly bowed with cupped hands. "Junior Ji Xun Jin greets Senior!"
Her attitude was respectful, her posture lowered to the utmost degree.
Su Shi'er's avatar waved a hand and said with a faint smile, "Why be so courteous, Daoist? Over these past five years, you have helped me with quite a few matters. You and I... may address one another as equals!"
"This... then thank you for your esteem, Daoist."
After a brief hesitation, the middle-aged female cultivator Ji Xun Jin smiled and cupped her hands again.
In just five years, the person before her had not only raised his cultivation to the Foundation Establishment stage, but had also successfully refined a fourth-grade spiritual pill with Foundation Establishment cultivation.
His alchemist rank had risen again and again. He was now, without question, a fourth-grade alchemist.

Moreover, the two were obsessed with the Dao of alchemy. They had taken on nearly seventy percent of the Pill Pavilion's tasks involving Medicinal Pill refinement.
They had even caused the Pill Pavilion's assignments to enter a temporary barren stretch.
Now, within the Sacred Spirit Cult, the two had risen to fame like meteors streaking across the sky.
Countless cultivators flocked to them as ducks to water, racking their brains for every possible way to ask the two to refine Medicinal Pills for them.
