In the ti that followed, Ling Chen stayed indoors, always in the Alchemy Room refining elixirs.
With previous experience, Ling Chen’s refining operation beca more and more skillful.
The speed of alchemy also increased rapidly.
Ten days passed, and all the spiritual dicine materials prepared by the Pavilion Master had been refined into elixirs.
The success rate even reached a terrifying ninety-nine percent.
There was only one failed attempt.
It was because Ling Chen tried to conduct alchemy for an extended period.
Moreover, Ling Chen had even successfully refined the second-tier Spirit Revitalizing Pill.
At this ti, in front of Ling Chen lay a pile of Jade Bottles.
There were ninety-nine Ganlin Pills and twenty Spirit Revitalizing Pills.
Among them, there were as many as eighty superior-quality Ganlin Pills, nineteen dium-quality Ganlin Pills, and not a single inferior-quality one.
And among the Spirit Revitalizing Pills, there were five superior-quality ones and fifteen dium-quality ones, with no inferior-quality either.
"Squeak!"
The door of the Alchemy Room opened, and Ling Chen walked out.
During these ten days, Ling Chen had been imrsed in alchemy, so his appearance looked haggard and sowhat disheveled.
As soon as Ling Chen ca out, an inner palace trainee imdiately reported this upward.
"Eh, Ling Chen, what are you doing here?"
Gu Lin was full of surprise.
Although he was a Divine Thought Master, he had not learned Alchemy Skill. He ca here to retrieve the Mind Pills.
Especially seeing Ling Chen co out from the Alchemy Room, how could he not be astonished?
Ling Chen glanced at Gu Lin, didn’t even speak a word, and started walking towards the outside of the Alchemy Pavilion.
He did not have ti to waste with Gu Lin now.
Just then, the Alchemy Pavilion Master and the Divine Thought Hall Master hurried over.
"Hall Master, Pavilion Master!"
Gu Lin quickly saluted the two.
But what confused Gu Lin was that these two dignitaries didn’t care about him at all and walked straight to Ling Chen’s side.
Seeing the sowhat disheveled Ling Chen, the Divine Thought Hall Master laughed and said: "How about it? I told you, right? Alchemy is not as simple as you thought, huh?"
During these ten days, Gu Qingyang had almost visited daily, but Ling Chen had been in seclusion without erging.
The Alchemy Pavilion Master also laughed and said: "Right, Ling Chen, don’t be bothered. The path of Alchemy certainly requires guidance from others."
Hearing the words of the two, Gu Lin finally understood.
That Ling Chen could refine elixirs, he must certainly be a Divine Thought Master!
He finally understood why his controlled Spiritual Weapon lost control that day—it must have been Ling Chen’s doing!
Now, both the Hall Master and the Pavilion Master showed such a friendly attitude towards Ling Chen; even if one thought with their butt, it was clear that Ling Chen’s talent was not inferior to his own.
Before, it was him who enjoyed such treatnt!
But now, the Hall Master and the Pavilion Master had actually ignored him?
"Um."
Ling Chen smiled.
He currently had no energy to speak with these people and needed to rest properly.
"Alright, you can go back now."
Gu Qingyang showed understanding and nodded.
"Thank you both!"
Ling Chen bid farewell and left.
Watching Ling Chen’s departing figure, Gu Qingyang smiled and said: "Ah, kids these days really don’t know how vast the sky and how deep the earth is! Actually trying to beco an Alchemist through his self-exploration?"
"Indeed, one just wonders whether this event will affect him sowhat!"
The Alchemy Pavilion Master expressed his concern.
"That shouldn’t be the case."
Gu Qingyang shook his head.
From what he knew of Ling Chen, the lad was not one to give up so easily.
After all, Ling Chen dared to challenge a higher-cultivated Spiritual Body owner to a life-and-death stage!
A re act of elixir refining wouldn’t be enough to discourage Ling Chen.
"What? He tried to figure out alchemy on his own?"
Gu Lin was also baffled.
He has never said anyone could successfully refine an elixir without the guidance of an alchemist!
The Alchemy Pavilion Master nodded, "That’s true."
He then glanced at Gu Lin and laughed, "Gu Lin, here are your mory Recovery Pills."
Saying so, he tossed over several Jade Bottles.
"Thank you, Pavilion Master!"
Gu Lin received them and hastily expressed his respect.
Gu Qingyang glanced at Gu Lin, with a touch of helplessness in his voice, "I really don’t understand what you young people are thinking. Clearly having the talent of a Divine Thought Master, yet you insist on focusing your efforts on cultivating Spiritual Power."
Gu Lin possessed a Wood Spirit Body and also had the talent of a Divine Thought Master.
Although he cultivated Divine Soul Telekinesis, he never spent ti on Alchemy, Artifact Refining, or Spirit Arrays.
In this respect, he was sowhat similar to Ling Chen.
Gu Lin quickly said, "Hall Master, you’re joking. Although I’m not in the Divine Thought Hall, I haven’t neglected my Divine Soul Telekinesis cultivation in the central palace in the slightest!"
Gu Qingyang gave Gu Lin a look and said, "I know your Divine Soul cultivation hasn’t fallen behind. But as a Divine Thought Master, you should at least learn so Alchemy and Artifact Refining, shouldn’t you? Right now you are nurtured by the Academic Palace and have no idea how precious Cultivation Resources are. Once you leave the Academic Palace, you’ll understand how much learning a bit of Alchemy and Artifact Refining helps in acquiring Cultivation Resources!"
Just as Gu Lin was about to explain, Gu Qingyang waved his hand dismissively, "Alright, go back to your central palace and don’t bother anymore!"
The Alchemy Pavilion Master smiled helplessly.
Gu Lin looked in the direction where Ling Chen had disappeared and suddenly asked, "Hall Master, Pavilion Master, is Ling Chen learning the ways of Alchemy?"
"Yes!"
Gu Qingyang nodded, his eyes suddenly brightening, "Have you changed your mind too?"
"Mhm!"
Gu Lin nodded emphatically.
The disregard he had just experienced from the Hall Master and Pavilion Master made him feel quite stifled.
If he also learned Alchemy, would he imdiately gain the attention of the Hall Master and Pavilion Master?
"Good!"
The Hall Master and Pavilion Master looked at each other and laughed heartily.
To have two such talented Divine Thought Masters deciding to learn the Alchemy Skill, it would be a great help to their Divine Thought Hall!
"Co over tomorrow, I will personally teach you both!" the Pavilion Master said, laughing.
"Mhm."
Gu Lin nodded and asked, "Honorable adults, to what extent has Ling Chen’s Divine Soul Realm reached?"
The Hall Master laughed, "Sa as you, mid Solid Realm."
"Mid Solid Realm?"
Gu Lin was taken aback.
He didn’t quite believe that their Divine Soul cultivations were comparable; even if he was unguarded, he shouldn’t have lost control of his Spiritual Weapon so easily!
But the Hall Master was a superior Divine Thought Master, and his perception could certainly not be wrong.
"I understand. I’ll see you tomorrow morning."
Gu Lin took his leave.
"Hall Master, I’m going to organize the Alchemy Room," said the Pavilion Master, smiling.
"Mhm, go ahead," replied Gu Qingyang with a nod.
Upon entering the Alchemy Room, the Pavilion Master glanced at the Alchemy Platform and noticed that all the prepared Spiritual dicines had disappeared.
"This kid is really greedy!"
The Pavilion Master chuckled bitterly.
He had prepared materials sufficient for one hundred and twenty Elixirs, yet Ling Chen had used up every last one.
Although the materials weren’t worth much, if turned into Elixirs, they would have been a considerable gain.
He bent down and picked up the Waste dicine Barrel.
When his gaze fell on the nearly empty barrel, he was stunned.
There was only a little bit of Spiritual Liquid inside.
Then, with an even more bitter smile, "So this guy only refined once and took all the Spiritual dicines back with him!"
According to his estimate, if the waste from one hundred and twenty Elixirs was there, it should have filled at least a third of the barrel.
But now, with only a bit of waste, it could only an that Ling Chen had refined once and took all the materials back with him.
"What use is it for you to take these Spiritual dicines back? Do you plan to eat them raw?" The Pavilion Master shook his head with a wry smile.
For the first ti, he had seen such a greedy person.
