"Junior Sister Mu Yan, how did you encounter these two demon brats?" Tang Yii asked.
In response, Mu Yan unfolded her right hand, revealing a swirling black stream of energy in her palm. With its appearance, the surrounding air turned chillingly icy.
"Is this... Yin Evil?"
Tang Yii’s eyes widened in shock.
"I was out training with a few junior sisters when we accidentally discovered an Earth Ice Yin Evil. Unexpectedly, during the harvesting process, we ran into these two demon brats. If not for your tily arrival, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have returned this ti."
Among Mu Yan’s group, only she and Yin Hong had reached the Xuandan. Initially, they feared nothing from the two brats, but unexpectedly, one of them was a Gu Dao Demon Cultivator who had raised a swarm of Black Winged Flying Centipedes, which put them in jeopardy.
Zhong Lin also fixed his gaze on the wisp of Earth Ice Yin Evil in Mu Yan’s hand, which was a Fifth Grade Yin Evil.
It was Zhong Lin’s first ti seeing the essential "Yin Evil" for breaking through to the Yin Yang Realm. He had not expected it to be so peculiar that just a wisp carried such trendous power, making even him, a Xuandan Realm Martial Artist, feel cold.
The Yin Yang Realm comprises three stages: the early Yin Evil Realm, the middle Yang Evil Realm, and finally the Gang Realm. To break through to the Yin Yang Realm, one must integrate Yin Evil into their Xuandan, hence Xuandan Realm martial artists in perfection are always searching for Yin Evil.
Even though this Earth Ice Yin Evil was only a Fifth Grade, its value was imasurable. No wonder the two demon cultivators dared to reveal themselves and snatch it — for them, opportunities to select Yin Evil are even scarcer, as their identity as demon martial artists is a sin, making them unable to appear brazenly.
Suddenly, Zhong Lin had a thought and instinctively looked at the black orb lying in the corner of his Storage Bracelet.
In the orb, black energy flowed slowly, like a living creature, remarkably similar to the Earth Ice Yin Evil in Mu Yan’s hand.
Yin Evil...
Zhong Lin was inwardly astonished; this orb had been a pick-up by Gu Chen from Island 36 in the Luoxing Islands and gifted to him. At the ti, neither of them knew what it was, so Zhong Lin had carelessly tossed it into his Storage Bracelet, not expecting it to be the aura of Yin Evil.
.
"Damn, my lucky disciple turned out to be truly favored, managing to find Yin Evil aura on such an isolated island like the Luoxing Islands. I just don’t know its grade?"
Zhong Lin secretly marveled in his heart.
It wasn’t the right ti to investigate further, he decided to examine it carefully once he returned.
Mu Yan suddenly raised the Earth Ice Yin Evil in her hand high: "Senior Sister Tang, if it weren’t for your help, we would be dead for sure. I hereby present this Earth Ice Yin Evil to you as a token of my gratitude for saving our lives."
"There’s no need for that."
Tang Yii waved her hand in refusal: "We are all sisters in the Juying Association and should help each other. If we were in danger, I’m sure Junior Sister Mu Yan would co to our aid as well."
"This..."
Mu Yan was a bit reluctant to part with the Earth Ice Yin Evil, for it was invaluable. Even if she couldn’t use it now, it could be exchanged for plentiful resources to enhance her cultivation.
"Thank you, Senior Sister. In the future, if any senior sister or brother encounters trouble, we will bravely go through fire and water and spare no effort."
Mu Yan said with determination.
The four people behind her also had solemn expressions and shouted: "Through fire and water, we will spare no effort."
Tang Yii stepped forward to help them up and said with a smile: "I will rember this, Junior Brother Zhong, do you have any Healing Pills on you?"
Zhong Lin retrieved a Jade Bottle from his Storage Bracelet and handed it over.
"Here is a Recovery Pill; let the junior sisters first restore their Spiritual Origin."
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
The group readily accepted the elixir and quickly sat cross-legged on the ground to restore their Spiritual Origin.
In just a mont, Mu Yan opened her eyes first and exclaid in surprise: "Senior Brother Zhong, where did you buy this Recovery Pill? The effect is indeed wonderful; it restored sixty percent of my Primordial Pill in such a short ti."
.
"Hehe, this Recovery Pill is unavailable elsewhere. It is uniquely refined by Zhong Lin, who is a Seventh Grade Alchemist," Chu Yu said proudly.
The other four also opened their eyes, and upon hearing the words "Seventh Grade Alchemist," they gazed at Zhong Lin with eyes full of admiration.
An Alchemist!
And a Seventh Grade Alchemist no less.
The re title of Alchemist signifies wealth, and a Seventh Grade Alchemist is soone many martial artists look up to. They hadn’t expected this seemingly amiable senior brother to be a Seventh Grade Alchemist.
Zhong Lin also smiled and said, "Junior sisters, if you obtain Spiritual dicine in the future, feel free to co to for pills. We are all mbers of the Juying Association, and you won’t be shortchanged."
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
"Senior Brother, my na is Yan Yu; you can call Little Fish."
"Yan Xing, Little Fish is my younger sister. We’ll be bothering you often, Senior Brother, so please don’t disdain us."
"I, Yi Ling, pay respects to Senior Brother Zhong."
The group was delighted to hear this and introduced themselves to Zhong Lin.
"No worries, no worries,"
Zhong Lin responded with a smile.
After staying for a while longer, the group got up and returned to the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land.
The trip to Earth Split Canyon took half a month and was thrilling yet without mishap.
Juying Peak.
Liuxuan Pavilion.
Zhong Lin sat cross-legged in the Alchemy Room, letting out a slight sigh of relief.
Compared to going out for training, he still preferred staying ho to practice alchemy and cultivation.
"For the next year, I’m not going out. The resources yielded from the Earth Split Canyon are enough to support in cultivation for a long ti. Backed by the Juying Association, I don’t have to search all over for Spiritual dicine. With this platform, a command will bring abundant Spiritual dicine. Given my Alchemy Technology, as long as I expand the network, Spirit Stones will naturally pour in."
With a wave of his right hand, a vast amount of Spiritual dicine spilled out from the Storage Bracelet, not just his own collection but also those given by Tang Yii and others in exchange for alchemically prepared pills for cultivation. Thus, he had enough to keep him busy for so ti.
Looking at the pile of Spiritual dicines resembling a small mountain, Zhong Lin also showed a hint of a troubled expression.
"Looks like I should find two apprentices to help organize the herbs; otherwise, just processing these herbs will consu a significant amount of ti."
Zhong Lin did not hesitate to pass on Alchemy Technology, as so low-grade Pill Masters could indeed save him a lot of ti with a little initial investnt of effort.
With this thought in mind, Zhong Lin didn’t linger and flew directly to the hall where Senior Sister Ye Yu resided.
The next day, two Third Grade Alchemists arrived.
A young man and woman, around eighteen or nineteen years old, their cultivation reaching the Spirit Embryo Realm, were outer disciples of the Sacred Land and mbers of the Juying Association.
After assessing them, Zhong Lin found the foundation of these two Third Grade Alchemists to be quite solid, more than capable of sorting the Spiritual dicine for him, and thus he retained them.
The two apprentices were exceedingly excited, for being able to assist a Seventh Grade Alchemist ant that even the tiniest benefits could last them a lifeti. Hence, they were diligent and dared not slack in the slightest.
