In the spacious cave mansion, spirit qi lingered, the atmosphere was tranquil.
Until a soft laugh echoed.
"Friend Youquan, why do you wear a look of deep-seated resentnt?"
"Friend?"
Youquan chewed on the word, an undertone of mockery in his voice.
"Once a lower order prisoner, now dares to call ’friend’?"
As he spoke, his divine consciousness swept outward.
A sudden gust arose in the dark room, blowing Luo Chen’s black hair, making it serpentine dance.
He smiled at the corner of his mouth, also releasing his divine consciousness.
As the void collided, the smile on Luo Chen’s face faded slightly.
In contrast, Youquan let out a light "hmm?"
"Eh!"
"Didn’t expect you, not only your realm increased rapidly, but your divine consciousness is so strong?"
"I thought you were walking..."
Divine consciousness is the external manifestation of divine soul endownt; the stronger it is, the stronger the soul.
Cultivators refine qi, refine the spirit; qi is easy to refine, but the divine soul does not grow easily.
Besides enhancing one’s realm, it often requires long years to accumulate, making even slight transformations.
Luo Chen’s ability to rapidly enhance his realm while making his divine soul endownt comparable to a great cultivator is truly remarkable.
"Now, can Luo call you friend?"
Luo Chen asked calmly, and because the sudden gust lifted the corner of the veil, he already guessed Youquan ca with anger.
"Hum, just a title, call however you like." Youquan snorted coldly, accepting Luo Chen, then began asking accountability. "The outer world speaks of your alchemy sect’s great na, but this hall master thinks it’s sowhat overrated. The elixirs you refined..."
Before Youquan could finish, Luo Chen suddenly spoke.
"Did sothing go wrong with the transforming pill?"
Youquan was taken aback, then replied, "Indeed, there’s a problem."
Luo Chen smiled, "What problem? Is the transformation not complete?"
Youquan’s gaze suddenly turned fierce, staring dead at Luo Chen: "You know the transforming pill has a problem?"
Implying "Yet you dare to let use it", could it be intentional calculation?
Luo Chen hurriedly waved his hand, he didn’t want to ruin his alchemy sect’s reputation over today’s doctor-patient issue.
After pondering for a mont, Luo Chen slowly said, "That transforming pill has no issues, nor does Luo’s pill refinent technique."
"Could it be my fault?"
"No, none of it. The problem lies in the pill formula itself!"
Seeing Youquan’s confusion, Luo Chen explained in detail, "When you provided with the transformation pill recipe, it was ant for demon cultivators below fourth order to consu, so they could transform into human shape before reaching fourth order, switching to human clan cultivation technique. Thus, the primary material used was the Nascent Soul essence blood of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. At the ti, Luo’s path of pill refinent was just a beginner, with limited understanding, not realizing its inherent limitation. Now that I’ve advanced in the dao of alchemy, naturally I see the flaws."
Youquan’s head was spinning, just wanting to hear the conclusion quickly, "What flaws?"
"Demon cultivators who have reached fourth order, consuming this pill, will experience conflict with their own Nascent Soul due to the Human Clan Nascent Soul essence blood, leading to incomplete transformation."
At this point, Luo Chen said casually, "The transforming pill I crafted absolutely has no problem, a spiritual pet of mine transford successfully."
For this reasoning, Youquan chose to believe.
Because later at Cangwu Mountain, a third-tier demon bird consud the transforming pill left by Luo Chen and transford early.
And Luo Chen’s explanation...
"Seems you didn’t deceive , Hua i said the sa."
Luo Chen asked curiously, "Who is Hua i?"
Youquan sneered: "Don’t even rember your disciple?"
Luo Chen was truly puzzled, when did he have a disciple nad "Hua i"?
However, Youquan had no interest in explaining to Luo Chen, directly asked: "Since you’ve achieved success in the dao of alchemy and know the transforming pill’s flaw, is there a subsequent solution?"
Luo Chen hesitated, "I’ve got so ideas, but better first see Vice Hall Master your situation and then discuss."
Now, it was Youquan’s turn to hesitate.
Luo Chen didn’t rush, quietly waiting.
After a while, Youquan sowhat awkwardly removed his black silk veil.
Upon seeing Youquan’s true appearance, Luo Chen smiled.
Of course, inwardly, but his face remained quite solemn.
Crow-headed human body, short black beak, even the nose was obscured by fur, hiding any details.
Under Luo Chen’s gaze, Youquan beca even more uncomfortable.
"Have you seen enough? Do you have a solution?"
Luo Chen nodded, "Not bad, the problem isn’t big, let refine a new transforming pill, then you’ll transform completely into human form."
Upon hearing this, Youquan felt a wave of relief.
To demon beasts, they don’t despise their true form or covet the human clan’s figure.
But a half-demon half-human incomplete transformation, would be despised by strong demon clan mbers!
Unless during transformation, the demon cultivator purposely retains so racial traits, otherwise no one would appear with a beast-headed, human body, or human-head, beast-body sort of laughable appearance.
"How long do you need?"
"Three days are enough, I have prepared materials on my end."
"Alright, I’ll send soone to retrieve it in three days!"
Impatiently, Youquan put on his hat and veil again, not having the slightest mood to catch up with Luo Chen, directly got up and left.
Luo Chen also rose to see him off, the etiquette was perfectly handled.
The harmonious scene of them bidding farewell at the cave mansion’s entrance was witnessed by many from Cangwu Mountain.
He Qingzi was initially worried, seeing this scene also relaxed a bit.
Thunder Prison was rather dissatisfied, he thought Vice Hall Master Youquan would co to confront, yet it ended in "guest and host rejoicing"?
Standing at the cave mansion entrance, Luo Chen naturally sensed those peeping gazes, presenting himself quite calmly.
