"Did you really make it onto the Bronze Ranking?"
Qin Wentian was the first to react, quickly standing up to ask.
Kong Shun also hurriedly looked over.
Only to hear Ye Qingchen say:
"While at the Martial Arts Arena, Lin Fan kept provoking , acting aggressively, so I fought him once, and ended up defeating him."
"If defeating the opponent allows you to replace his position on the Bronze Ranking, then now I’m precisely the seventy-second on the Bronze Ranking!"
Ye Qingchen had long wanted to say this.
But Kong Shun had never given him a chance to speak.
At this mont.
Hong Man also spoke up: "That Lin Fan thought he had Ye Qingchen cornered and even wanted Ye Qingchen to put up the Jinghong Sword as a stake. But in the end, not only did he lose a Storage Ring, he also lost thirteen lower-grade profound martial techniques from his fellow disciples!"
The entire place was in shock.
Kong Shun and Qin Wentian looked at each other, until they saw the Storage Ring on Ye Qingchen’s finger, they could barely accept the reality. They had just been arguing here for ages!
And discussing what to do if Ye Qingchen couldn’t make it onto the Bronze Ranking!
Kong Shun was even more stunned, jaw agape:
"How is it possible?"
He originally thought Ye Qingchen’s martial cultivation was a waste of ti. He wanted Ye Qingchen to focus on following him in alchemy, but never expected he had quietly made it onto the Bronze Ranking.
Chu Yao was even more dumbfounded, speechless. She always thought Ye Qingchen’s alchemical talent was frightening enough, but never expected his cultivation talent to be equally astounding!
Only Qin Wentian laughed heartily, excitedly saying: "Old Man Kong, did you see that? Ye Qingchen’s cultivation talent is no less! And now that he’s on the Bronze Ranking, you should give up now, right?"
Kong Shun let out a long sigh, only realizing now he had misjudged from the beginning.
The potential Ye Qingchen possessed had already far exceeded his expectations.
However, he was truly reluctant to give up just like that.
When even Chu Yao and Qin Wentian thought Kong Shun would give up, unexpectedly he suddenly smiled and shook his head, saying:
"It’s not that easy to make give up! Since Ye Qingchen doesn’t want to leave the Taotian Palace to beco my apprentice, then I’ll just stay in the Taotian Palace!"
"Ye Qingchen, you wouldn’t mind learning alchemy with in your spare ti, would you?" Kong Shun looked at Ye Qingchen with a smile. "This way, you won’t have to break your original promise!"
"Old Man Kong, you really..." Qin Wentian was also anxious, but finally sighed, not saying anymore, tacitly agreeing.
After all.
He still underestimated Ye Qingchen’s importance in Kong Shun’s heart.
After all, no one would want to let go of a young genius who might beco a Grandmaster of Alchemy in the future.
Just like him.
Knowing Ye Qingchen had ascended the Bronze Ranking, he was even more unwilling to let go.
Ye Qingchen smiled wryly.
No doubt about it.
The request Kong Shun made was really hard to refuse.
Not only did it not violate his promise, but it also allowed him to learn alchemy, which for him, was truly a win-win situation.
"Alright, I agree!"
Ye Qingchen nodded.
Just like that.
Under the incredulous gazes of the crowd, Kong Shun unexpectedly stayed at the Taotian Palace to teach Ye Qingchen alchemy.
However, that very night.
When Kong Shun saw the Body Tempering Liquid that everyone used for cultivation, he burst into a rage at Qin Wentian, and then personally concocted a bottle of Body Tempering Liquid.
No doubt about it.
Kong Shun’s acun in alchemy was far superior to soone like Qin Wentian, who was but a re amateur. Soaking in the Body Tempering Liquid made by Kong Shun not only swept away the weariness from dayti cultivation, but the liquid’s dicinal properties even penetrated through the skin to the internal organs, enhancing the physique.
The next day, Kong Shun didn’t directly teach Ye Qingchen alchemy, but instead handed him a copy of the "Compendium of Plants and Herbs".
This caused Ye Qingchen to be a little taken aback.
"Why not directly teach alchemy?" Ye Qingchen asked directly.
"Hmph, alchemy isn’t that simple!" Kong Shun puffed his whiskers and glared. "The last ti you made the Bone Marrow Supplent Pill was just luck! To learn alchemy, one must start from scratch. This book contains records of various spirit herbs and their properties. Once you’re familiar with these, we’ll begin with the basics of alchemy!"
Ye Qingchen was montarily stunned.
The compendium contained dicinal theories and so properties of each spirit herb, numbering over tens of thousands, with bizarre and intricate details.
From today on.
Aside from daily cultivation, Ye Qingchen had an additional task of learning alchemy.
However.
He also discovered that with his cultivation technique advancing into the "Galactic Chapter", his senses were not only several tis sharper, but he also gained the ability to rember things at a glance.
Those strange and unique contents were deeply etched into his mind, as if branded.
"So that’s it!"
At the sa ti.
Ye Qingchen, delving deeper into the "Compendium of Plants and Herbs", felt like he had opened up a new world, exposing him to all sorts of unheard-of peculiar spirit herbs.
For instance, there’s a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure called ’Tongyou Grass,’ which can nourish the soul. Even in death, there’s a chance to condense a ghost body and beco a Ghost Cultivator.
For example, there’s also a fruit known as ’Profound Celestial Nether Fruit’. Consuming it can even increase a few minor realms, but the price is losing potential, never able to advance again.
An example is an ’Ancient Divine Blood’, allowing a cultivator to awaken their bloodline and activate latent powers within the body.
For example, ...
In short.
The world of alchemy was endless. The extensiveness of recorded matters far exceeded Ye Qingchen’s expectations.
To Ye Qingchen, it was as if opening another world entirely.
Of course, Qin Wentian wasn’t idle either.
After Kong Shun handed the "Compendium of Plants and Herbs" to Ye Qingchen, he mysteriously pulled Ye Qingchen aside.
"Originally, I planned to give you this in a year, thinking it would help you in aiming for the Bronze Ranking. But I didn’t expect you to enter the Bronze Ranking so quickly. It looks like I can give it to you early!"
"What is it?" Seeing Qin Wentian so secretive, Ye Qingchen couldn’t help but feel curious.
Qin Wentian pulled out four small bone rings from his chest.
The bone rings were white as jade, engraved with nurous small golden runes, exuding a mysteriously ancient aura.
"What are these?" Ye Qingchen’s eyes narrowed.
He had a feeling.
The bone rings were anything but ordinary.
Qin Wentian looked intently at Ye Qingchen, speaking word by word:
"Profound Celestial Locks!"
