Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

While a crafty rabbit has three burrows at its disposal, Luo Chen also had to find himself additional safe places to rest.

The scope of this exploration was not large, and was limited to a five-mile radius.

Occasionally, when he encountered places that seemed potentially dangerous, he would throw a Jade Marrow Waste Bead as a way to test the way ahead.

If he sensed danger, he would immediately retreat.

As the sky began to lighten, Luo Chen wisely returned to Crescent Valley.

The exploration today was acceptable, confirming most of the surroundings.

Moreover, he discovered that there were fewer Demon Wolves nearby than before.

He didn’t know whether it was because too many had died from internal conflicts or whether they had migrated to other places.

Before going up, Luo Chen, following his usual routine, cleaned off the traces of Demon Qi that might have been attached to him from the mountains.

During this process of course, he had to avoid the strand of Spirit Power on his shoulder.

“Eh?”

With a puzzled exclamation, Luo Chen’s face gradually turned gloomy.

The last time he checked, although the strand of Spirit Power was condensed, it was actually in a state of spilling over, weakening and dispersing.

But this time, he found that the Spirit Power had returned to its original state.

High-level cultivators possess a legend of everlasting Qi Power, retaining their vitality eternally.

However, in the relatively low Foundation Establishment stage, he had never heard of a method to preserve Spirit Power indefinitely.

In other words, this strand of regenerated Spirit Power had recently been replenished by an identical source of Spirit Power.

“Was it yesterday?”

“Mi Shuhua sought me out not just to talk about the Earth Fire Evil Qi, he must have subtly employed a technique at that time to consolidate this strand of Spirit Power.”

Without any hesitation, Luo Chen instantly discerned the truth.

Between changing expressions, Luo Chen let out a sigh.

That old fellow, he was indeed focusing in on him tightly!

After ten days

” Collected fifty-seven pills, forty-one lower grade and sixteen medium grade.”

Once he said this number, Sikong Shoujia, seemingly in disbelief, recounted it to make sure, although, no matter how many times he counted, there were still the same number of elixirs on the plate.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Hall Master, why is the pill formation rate lower today than yesterday’s?”

Are you asking me?

Luo Chen glanced at him with an unexpressive face and turned to leave.

Bullshit, he had stimulated one of his acupoints last night, which made him suffer terribly.

Being able to barely manage Pill-making today should be considered as him working diligently.

As the boss who worked whilst sick, wouldn’t anyone else commend him, how come he was being asked for an explanation instead when it comes to you?

“Luo Chen!”

“I am the Hall Master, I do not need to explain too much to an outsider about the affairs of pill refinement.”

Having said that, he went directly into the stone house and activated the array.

He had no desire to explain, but Sikong Shoujia was left a little bit restless.

Not to mention his share of income from the Pill Hall.

It was only five days ago that his son had become officially married into the Mi family.

Income from the Pill Hall is now directly related to his son’s future cultivation resources.

Now that the income has lessened, he was becoming anxious than anyone else.

Without wasting words, after finishing his work he went directly to the Mi Family Land and sought out Mi Shuhua.

“Gang Leader, the amount of pills this month from the Pill Hall is a bit low!” “Hmm?”

It seemed that Mi Shuhua had just returned from outside, his face showing a bit of fatigue.

He rubbed his brows and asked about the situation.

“In a total of eleven days, Luo Chen has only refined 820 lower-grade Jade Marrow Pills and 357 medium-grade Jade Marrow Pills.”

“This number, compared to the past few months, has fallen by almost 20 %!”

On hearing these numbers, Mi Shuhua couldn’t help but grow serious.

“Does Luo Chen have any explanation?”

Sikong Shoujia replied, “He said he was having trouble cultivating, unable to focus, which resulted in him being unable to concentrate during the pill-making process.”

Problems caused by cultivation?

With narrowed eyes, Mi Shuhua unconsciously stroked his beard.

Luo Chen’s Five Spirit Root Talent was rather common, encountering problems during cultivation was not out of the ordinary.

But this had never happened before!

Perhaps there was a chance he had reached a bottleneck in his Dao of Alchemy. He had mentioned wanting to use Earth Fire Evil Qi to enhance the grade of his elixir last time.

Could his skill have regressed instead of making a breakthrough?

The exact situation, Mi Shuhua could not determine.

Refining pills was quite a technical job, it was really hard for outsiders to give any advice.

Mi Shuhua thought for a moment and said, “He is a clever man, he will certainly adjust appropriately. We should give him more time.”

“Besides, there is some good news for him, you take it to him tomorrow.” While speaking, he handed something over.

Seeing this object, Sikong Shoujia’s eyes couldn’t help but twitch..
