However, she was rely puzzled for a mont and did not think much of it. She traded four Mountain and Marsh Fire Crystals to Qi Chuan, intending to keep the remaining four for other uses.
After the exchange was completed, Qi Chuan felt a bit elated inside.
Now, he had fourteen Mountain and Marsh Fire Crystals in his possession. Refining them into elixirs would ensure long-term use.
"Oh, by the way, I have another matter to discuss with you." At this mont, Guan Yunyun said seriously, "The Sect Leader has assigned a task that requires your attention."
Upon hearing this, Qi Chuan nodded, not feeling particularly surprised.
Recently, there have indeed been many matters within the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.
Guan Yunyun, for instance, was so busy that she couldn’t spare a mont, and it was similar for the other Core Formation True Masters.
It was about ti for tasks to fall on his shoulders as well.
"It’s over at Little Black Abyss. A ruin has been discovered by a Foundation Establishnt influence. Since they couldn’t enter, they offered it to the Immortal Sect. You should visit the main hall and discuss the specifics with the Sect Leader," Guan Yunyun briefly explained.
"Little Black Abyss? That’s near the Yin Yang Mansion..." Qi Chuan pondered slightly upon hearing this.
He also knew about Little Black Abyss.
It wasn’t within the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect’s Sect Domain.
Ruins discovered by Foundation Establishnt influences but inaccessible are at least Tier Two top-level ruins, or perhaps Tier Three ruins.
It’s uncertain if the Yin Yang Mansion would get wind of this and try to seize it.
"Therefore, we must act quickly. If discovered by the Yin Yang Mansion, it would be problematic. However, if we move swiftly enough, even if they are inford, the ruin would already be in our possession, and there is nothing they can do," Guan Yunyun advised.
"Alright, I’ll head to the main hall right away," Qi Chuan said.
Guan Yunyun then bade farewell and left.
anwhile, Qi Chuan closed his Cave Mansion and transford into an Escape Light, heading towards the Myriad Flowers Peak.
At the Peak of Myriad Flowers, within the Myriad Flowers Hall.
When Qi Chuan descended and entered the Myriad Flowers Hall, he saw Zhao Ming, who seed to be waiting for him.
"Sect Leader," Qi Chuan saluted Zhao Ming with cupped fists.
"Ah, Junior Brother Qi Chuan has arrived? Please, have a seat." Zhao Ming lifted his head, a slight smile on his face.
Qi Chuan sat down and directly asked, "Sect Leader, I heard there’s a task involving the Little Black Abyss that requires my attention?"
"That’s right." Zhao Ming nodded and stated, "According to the Foundation Establishnt influence, it appears to be a Tier Three ruin. Although the grade isn’t too high, your strength should suffice. Besides, you’re not going alone; Junior Brother Feng Tan will accompany you."
Qi Chuan nodded.
It seed the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect placed considerable importance on this Tier Three ruin. Even though the grade isn’t that high, amidst troubled tis, they deployed Feng Tan and himself, two Core Formation True Masters.
"However, it seems the Sect Leader hasn’t realized that I’ve broken through and reached the Core Formation Middle Stage," Qi Chuan thought to himself.
Sect Leader Zhao Ming, was of Core Formation Late Stage Cultivation, and not just any ordinary Core Formation Late Stage.
Theoretically, he should have been able to detect Qi Chuan’s Core Formation Middle Stage Cultivation.
Qi Chuan’s Stealth Skill was indeed impressive.
But he only practiced Tier One and Two Concealnt Techniques. Yet, due to the Hundredfold Critical Strike, these Stealth Skills were mastered to an extrely profound level. Among cultivators of the sa realm, as long as Qi Chuan wished to hide, his cultivation level wouldn’t be detected.
Top-tier Core Formation Late Stage True Masters could still perceive it, though.
But in reality, Zhao Ming hadn’t noticed.
Qi Chuan believed this must be due to the First-Grade Nine Orifice Golden Core.
"However, Junior Brother Feng Tan will only be free three days from now. You should wait for him. Don’t go alone; it’ll be safer this way," Zhao Ming advised. Though it was a low-grade Tier Three ruin, it could still pose so danger.
"Okay." Qi Chuan nodded.
Zhao Ming then briefly explained the matters concerning Little Black Abyss and that Tier Three ruin. After their discussion, Qi Chuan bid farewell and left.
Upon returning to his Cave Mansion, Qi Chuan didn’t alter his cultivation routine while waiting for Feng Tan over these three days. He continued as usual.
Before he realized it, two days had passed.
On this afternoon, Qi Chuan had just completed refining a batch of elixirs.
Before his eyes, he saw lines of characters appear.
[Utilizing Core Formation Divine Sense and Alchemy Technique, you ticulously manipulated and condensed Six Three-Flower Cyan Spirit Pills, triggering a Hundredfold Critical Strike, yielding a hundredfold result. Your level in refining Three-Flower Cyan Spirit Pills significantly improved, advancing you to a Tier Three Middle Grade Alchemist.]
As the writing materialized, a surge of alchemical insights filled Qi Chuan’s mind.
After absorbing them, Qi Chuan clearly felt that his Alchemy Skill had significantly advanced, reaching the level of a Tier Three Middle Grade Alchemist.
"I’ve finally reached the level of a Tier Three Middle Grade Alchemist. I can start attempting to refine Mountain and Marsh Fire Crystals into elixirs." Sensing his own advancents, a faint smile appeared on Qi Chuan’s face.
However, this was just the beginning of attempts.
Though he was now a Tier Three Middle Grade Alchemist, when encountering a new Pill Formula, he would still need a period of acclimatization and practice to successfully refine the new elixirs.
But tomorrow is the scheduled day to explore the Tier Three Ruins with Feng Tan, which would be too late.
"I’ll have to wait until after the exploration to start refining elixirs," Qi Chuan thought to himself.
By the next morning, at dawn.
Qi Chuan opened his eyes from his ditative cultivation state, watching as a line of script appeared before him and gradually faded away.
Then Qi Chuan introspected his Dantian and noticed his First-Grade Nine Orifice Golden Core had grown even more substantial.
"Not bad. My mana has beco more potent." Qi Chuan nodded with a smile.
He stretched and loosened his muscles, then noticed an unusual movent from the array outside his Cave Mansion.
"Could it be Senior Brother Feng Tan arriving?" Even before using Divine Sense to scan, Qi Chuan speculated internally.
Once he did scan outside the Cave Mansion with his Divine Sense, he indeed found Feng Tan’s figure there.
Hence, Qi Chuan proceeded outside his Cave Mansion.
As Qi Chuan opened the Cave Mansion’s gate and deactivated the array, Feng Tan approached, laughing, "Junior Brother Qi Chuan, how are your preparations? If you’re not ready, we can wait a bit longer."
"I’m ready. We can leave anyti," Qi Chuan replied with a smile.
"In that case, without further ado, let’s head out," Feng Tan suggested. "As we explore these Tier Three ruins, Junior Brother Qi Chuan, be cautious and follow my lead since I have more experience in this regard."
"Alright." Qi Chuan nodded.
He understood Feng Tan was looking out for him, worried he might encounter unexpected situations during the exploration.
It was a kind gesture.
Moreover, since Feng Tan was more experienced in exploring ruins, Qi Chuan simply followed his lead to avoid causing any unnecessary trouble due to his own inexperience.
Afterward, Qi Chuan sealed his Cave Mansion and, together with Feng Tan, transford into two Escape Lights, leaving the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect and heading toward Little Black Abyss.
Little Black Abyss was quite a distance from the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.
But after so ti, they managed to arrive near Little Black Abyss.
Upon arrival, they first made contact with the individuals from the Foundation Establishnt influence who provided the information.
This Foundation Establishnt influence was a small Foundation Establishnt sect.
The contact was made with the founding ancestor of this Foundation Establishnt sect. Yes, this Foundation Establishnt sect was established just one generation ago.
One could say it was a stroke of luck for this small Foundation Establishnt sect.
Established in the first generation, they discovered a Tier Three ruin. Though they couldn’t enter, offering it to the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect would still grant them a decent amount of resources.
