Chen Shuangbai did not cultivate; instead, he instructed the two creatures to guard the cave abode and released the Flowing Cloud Flying Pouch, which then headed elsewhere.
Long before he left the mountain to guard Wind Howling County, Chen Shuangbai had already been recruited into the Jade Dew Hall by Huang Shanglan.
Previously, due to the tension of leaving the sect, Chen Shuangbai had not registered at the Jade Dew Hall. Now that he has returned to the mountain, Chen Shuangbai naturally wants to go to the Jade Dew Hall's main hall to register his name, which will be convenient for the future.
Jade Dew Hall is situated on several sacred peaks.
The Cold Mist Jade Garden on Spring Water Peak is where spirit medicine are planted. In addition, there are several other spiritual peaks, which are used either to store elixirs and medicinal materials or to pile up miscellaneous items.
His destination was Winter Storage Peak, where the main hall of the Jade Dew Hall was located.
Winter Storage Peak is located among several sacred peaks. The terrain is relatively flat, but the Spiritual Qi is exceptionally rich and pure.
The buildings on the peak are mostly constructed with warm jade and spiritual wood, with an elegant style. The air is filled with a faint, refreshing fragrance of medicinal herbs and a rich, lingering aroma of elixirs all year round.
Chen Shuangbai descended from the clouds and landed on a wide platform halfway up Winter Storage Peak.
Huang Shanglan was not supposed to be on duty today, but since Chen Shuangbai Chen Shuangbai invited into the hall by her, she waited here early for him. As soon as he appeared, she came forward to greet him with a smile.
" Senior Sister Huang, you've gone to so much trouble."
Chen Shuangbai smiled.
Huang Shanglan waved her hand and said, "Junior brother, what are you saying? I invited you into the hall, and since this is your first time here, I should personally take you to meet the hall's leaders and familiarize you with the place."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Sister."
"Hey, it's nothing."
Jade Dew Hall is no better than Expenditure Hall.
The Expenditure Hall determines Merit Points, and spiritual materials are constantly being put into and taken out of the warehouse. Disciples also receive and complete tasks, so there are many people coming and going. Everyone is in a hurry, and the atmosphere is therefore very tense and busy.
The feeling Chen Shuangbai got from Winter Storage Peak was... auspicious and peaceful.
It's as if time itself has slowed down here.
As the midday sun shone down, Huang Shanglan led Chen Shuangbai from the mountainside, introducing each palace and hall one by one.
After passing through the corridors lined with colorful flowers and willows, Huang Shanglan pointed to an octagonal pavilion with upturned eaves in the distance and introduced it, "That's the Pill Rhyme Pavilion, where the Alchemist and apprentices exchange their Dao of Alchemy insights and discuss difficult questions."
"Occasionally, we also hold small-scale internal exchange meetings or new product appraisal meetings."
She recounted the story to Chen Shuangbai in great detail, giving Chen Shuangbai a general impression.
As we turned a corner, we bumped into a Alchemist Alchemist in blue robes. He was holding a bamboo scroll and seemed to be studying Pill Formula.
Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw Chen Shuangbai and Huang Shanglan.
"Junior Sister Huang, isn't today a day off?"
Huang Shanglan called out "Senior Brother Yin," then smiled and said, " Senior Brother Yin, this is Junior Brother Chen Shuangbai. It's his first time visiting our hall, so I'll show him the way so he doesn't get lost and go the wrong way."
Senior Brother Yin nodded and said nothing more.
But after moving his mouth a couple of times and muttering the name Chen Shuangbai, he suddenly raised his head and stared blankly at Chen Shuangbai.
" Chen Shuangbai? You're Chen Shuangbai?"
Chen Shuangbai was somewhat surprised.
He began to recall if he had offended this Alchemist Yin in any way, only to see the blue-robed Alchemist quickly step forward, approach him, take out a pill from his Storage Bag, and ask with an inquisitive look, "Did you refine this pill? How did you refine it? Why is its potency three points stronger than others...?"
He rattled off a whole bunch of things, making Chen Shuangbai a little dizzy.
Seeing that Senior Brother Yin was getting more and more excited, Huang Shanglan couldn't help but step forward to calm the atmosphere and pulled Senior Brother Yin back from getting close to Chen Shuangbai.
" Senior Brother Yin, mind your manners!"
Only then was Chen Shuangbai able to see clearly the pills in Alchemist Yin's hand.
It was a bluish-white pill about the size of a longan, with clear water ripple and cloud patterns on its surface, and a pure and gentle herbal fragrance emanating from it.
Chen Shuangbai recognized her.
This is the Azure Flower Pill he refined.
The Azure Flower Pill he refined all looked roughly like this, making them very easy to recognize.
"Senior brother, it was indeed me who refined it... Is there something wrong with it?"
As he spoke, Chen Shuangbai was already secretly pondering—
'Could it be that something went wrong with the Azure Flower Pill I made...? That shouldn't be the case. I've taken them myself, and even if there were some adverse reactions, they were just minor issues...'
Pulled away by Huang Shanglan, Alchemist Yin realized his earlier lapse in composure and quickly straightened his clothes, but his gaze towards the pills and Chen Shuangbai remained fervent. "No! No! There's nothing wrong with it!"
"I was simply captivated by its exquisite craftsmanship. Seeing how perfectly this Azure Flower Pill was refined, even surpassing the efficacy of the ones in the hall by a third, I wanted to ask... how did you refine it?"
"I'm sorry, Junior Brother Chen, I was a bit rude just now."
Chen Shuangbai felt a slight sense of relief.
fine!
If the problem doesn't stem from consuming the pills I concocted... then everything is negotiable.
"So that's how it is..."
As Chen Shuangbai spoke, she began to think.
The reason why his Azure Flower Pill Azure Flower Pill three times more effective than those in the hall or even other markets was firstly because of the Pill Condensation Liquid secreted by the Gray Ball, and secondly because his own cultivation of the " Dark Nether Pill Heart Instruction " had unique features in refining medicinal liquids.
Only when the two are combined can this Azure Flower Pill be produced.
After a brief moment of thought, Chen Shuangbai decided to share some of the key points.
But Senior Brother Yin suddenly shouted, clutching his head, "No! We can't say that here!"
"Wait here, I will summon my fellow disciples."
As he spoke, he took off running to the other side of the corridor, calling out several names.
In the corridor, only Huang Shanglan and Chen Shuangbai remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.
Before long, a series of hurried footsteps mixed with excited conversations approached from afar.
Then, Alchemist Yin returned, followed by three other Alchemist dressed in the same Jade Dew Hall attire—two men and one woman, all of whom appeared to be slightly younger than Alchemist Yin and showed signs of excitement.
"See that? That tall, handsome man is Junior Brother Chen!"
"Senior Brother Yin said loudly."
The eyes of the three Alchemist behind him lit up immediately, and they jogged towards this direction.
If Chen Shuangbai hadn't known that this person intended to ask her for alchemy tips, she would have thought it was some clan holding a martial arts contest to find a husband!
Huang Shanglan, however, seemed to know something and laughed, "I had forgotten that the Expenditure Hall has shared some of the pills that Junior Brother Chen has refined over the past three years, and we've found that both their quality and appearance are quite good."
"Your reputation has already spread among the Alchemist in the hall even before you've arrived."
