Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Central Palace, Ling Qian

A discussion on the Dao of Alchemy thus unfolds.

Five days later, Jiang Qianche looked at Xu Feng, still feeling excited.

"Nephew, how about I ask for a Nine Revolutions Saint Pill for you?"

"With your talent, when will you be able to reach the Unification Realm?"

Jiang Qianche was somewhat anxious; his nephew’s insight into alchemy was so profound that it was already not weaker than that of an average Immortal Level Alchemist.

As long as his realm was achieved, he could naturally advance to become an Immortal Level Alchemist.

"Uncle-master, I’m still young, let’s take it slow," Xu Feng said with a smile, his current cultivation speed had improved and he was no longer as concerned about his innate talent as before.

"Many Immortal Level Alchemists within the Sacred Land are too proud to ask you for guidance."

"Even if they could swallow their pride, except for me, who knows you, the others would not have the opportunity."

"Hurry up and enhance your cultivation, I’ll be waiting for you among the Immortal Level Alchemists," Jiang Qianche said.

"Uncle-master, how many years did it take you to become an Immortal Level Alchemist?"

"It should be 320 years, why?"

"I’m not even 40 years old this year, there is still a long road ahead."

Having finished speaking, Xu Feng bade farewell to Jiang Qianche and returned to the Xu Family Courtyard.

Just as he was thinking about continuing to study the art of Artifact Refining, Xu Feng suddenly felt a subtle feedback of soul energy within his soul.

"Little Jade has advanced in rank!"

In the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, atop Qingqiu Mountain.

A Nine Palace Jade Toad, slightly larger than a palm, just advanced to the Golden Core Realm.

A jade spot on its back lit up, and Xu Feng knew this was the sign of the opening of the Nine Palaces.

"Young Master Xu, Little Jade has advanced to the Golden Core Realm, I am curious to see what you want to do with Little Jade," inquired a nine-tailed lady curiously.

"I have a talented Artifact Refiner of an Alien Race here; I want to take him into one of the palaces," Xu Feng did not conceal his intentions.

After many years of communication, both parties had become friends with an open dialogue.

"An Artifact Refiner, I wonder if postnatal Spiritual Treasures could be refined," the nine-tailed lady’s eyes shone.

"Miss Meng Bai jests, he is still just a Spirit Level Artifact Refiner, probably can advance to Immortal Level Artifact Refiner after increasing his cultivation," Xu Feng replied with a smile.

"No rush, I have plenty of time~" the nine-tailed lady said faintly.

"If my Artifact Refiner can enter the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, I will have him refine some things to relieve your boredom, Miss," said Xu Feng.

"Then I’ll trouble Young Master Xu to do so, and if Young Master Xu can come in person, I must thank you properly."

"I look forward to that day~" Xu Feng’s heart could not help but beat faster.

The Nine Palace Jade Toad looked toward the direction of Xu Feng’s Divine Thought.

"Croak!!" The sound was quite excited.

Xu Feng withdrew his Divine Thought from the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, and called Little Jade back.

In the Alchemy Room, Ling Qian was instructing Bai Mo in the making of a Treasure.

"The great world I told you about, you can go now; there, you will have endless resources of Spiritual Ore and Materials."

After becoming an Artifact Refiner, Xu Feng better understood the abundant resources of the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World.

All kinds of Spiritual Ores and Materials that could even refine Immortal Artifacts can easily be found.

"Anyway, my contract is in your hands, I cannot disobey your commands," Ling Qian said.

"When I take you there, you will understand what kind of world you’re coming into."

"Do not resist, let Little Jade take you into the palace."

The Nine Palace Jade Toad hopped directly from Xu Feng’s shoulder to the ground.

The Central Palace at the back emitted a Holy Light that enveloped Ling Qian.

At that moment, Xu Feng at the side became excited, knowing that whether he’d be able to enjoy deluxe treatment relied on this moment.

The Ling Qian in the Holy Light began to disintegrate, eventually transforming into fine dust and merging into the Central Palace of the Nine Palace Jade Toad.

At this time, Xu Feng could sense that his contract with Ling Qian had disappeared.

Under this circumstance, it meant one party of the contract had died.

Five hours later, the last bit of dust from Ling Qian completely merged into the Central Palace.

The Nine Palace Jade Toad fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Feng knew this was the process of digesting Ling Qian’s memories.

"Young Master, can my master come back?" Bai Mo at the side asked somewhat reluctantly.

"Of course, he will, he’s just living in a different way now, he will continue to teach you in the future," Xu Feng replied.

While waiting for the awakening of the Nine Palace Jade Toad, the Communication Treasure suddenly received a message.

"A special mission, optimizing Spirit Clan’s Spirit Pill?"

"Isn’t this developed by the Sacred Land? Why turn to me for optimization?" Xu Feng was perplexed but still curious and took on the mission.

Over the past two years, the relationship between the Demon Clan and the Spirit Clan had deteriorated, but the alliance suppressing the Human Clan remained intact.

The worsening relationship between the two clans had a lot to do with the Spirit Clan’s Spirit Pills.

Three days later, the Nine Palace Jade Toad awoke.

In that instant, Xu Feng brought Little Jade to the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World.

This time, however, he put Little Jade directly amidst the Evil Tiger Tribe.

"Xiao Yu, release Ling Qian," Xu Feng said excitedly.

"As you command, master," a childlike voice responded.

A flash of Spirit Light flickered, and Ling Qian appeared in the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World.

"Ling Qian, how do you feel now?" Xu Feng asked cautiously.

"I am still myself, no particular feelings."

"Just that, this Spiritual Energy!" Ling Qian sensed the environment around him.

"Never mind that for now, I have prepared the space-attribute Spiritual Ores for you. Just casually craft a Storage Bag and put some items into it," Xu Feng said, his voice trembling slightly.

Under Xu Feng’s direction, Ling Qian found the pile of space-attribute Spiritual Ores and crafted a very simple Storage Bag.

After casually putting some items inside, he returned to the Central Palace of the Nine Palace Jade Toad.

Xu Feng’s Divine Thought exited the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, summoning the Nine Palace Jade Toad to him.

Then Ling Qian emerged from the Central Palace with a flicker of Spirit Light.

"Quick, see if the items came out," Xu Feng said, his heart pounding crazily as if he was awaiting the results of staking all his wealth in a final gamble.

"The Storage Bag came out, but all the items inside were pulled back to that world by an unknown force," Ling Qian reported.

"The Storage Bag is out, but the items inside are gone," Xu Feng said with a hint of disappointment, but he could accept this outcome.

"Just being able to bring out the crafted Magic Treasure is not too bad."

"Come on, let’s go back in and experiment some more."

In the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, Ling Qian was staring dumbfounded at the Sword Spirit Xiao Tao and the Stone Spirit.

"Master, do you know what they’re absorbing?"

"A Dragon Scale of an Immortal Emperor Level!!"

"With just a few more, we could craft an Acquired Spiritual Treasure!" Ling Qian’s voice trembled with excitement.

"The two Dragon Scales are already ruined; they can no longer be used to craft an Acquired Spiritual Treasure."

The Stone Spirit, still wriggling on the Dragon Scale, paid it no heed, continuing its skilled movements.

On the other hand, Sword Spirit Xiao Tao spoke up, "Master has several more of these Dragon Scales, use them if you need. Why make such a fuss."

At that moment, Ling Qian sensed an even more mysterious aura.

Walking over, he found several long Jade Boxes, and upon opening one, a wave of Heaven and Earth Merit spread open.

A multicolored feather was quietly displayed inside the Jade Box.

"Heaven and Earth Merit Phoenix Feather!" Ling Qian felt as though he had entered an Illusion World.

"There are many good things in this world, stay calm."

"Your task now is to focus on enhancing your own strength, striving to become an Immortal Level Artifact Refiner as soon as possible."

Ling Qian’s cultivation was at the peak of Divinity Transformation Realm. To become an Immortal Level Artifact Refiner, he also needed to advance to the Unification Realm.

"Master, what about the great inheritance you mentioned to me earlier?"

"I will pass it to you shortly."

Afterward, Xu Feng had Ling Qian conduct many experiments, concluding that only items fully refined by Ling Qian could be taken out of the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World.

After exiting the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, Xu Feng gave Ling Qian a set of Inheritance Jade Scrolls related to the Art of Artifact Refining.

These were the Art of Artifact Refining techniques he had learned in the Eighth Grade Great Dao Golden Lotus.

"I’ve made a mistake; based on this, I should have first sealed an Alien Race Alchemist inside," Xu Feng scratched his head.

Those Spiritual Ores inside the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, if one’s strength was not adequate, would be impossible even just to process, let alone refine.

However, the same was not true for Alchemy. Even a ten-thousand-year-old Ancient Spiritual Medicine, a Spirit Level Alchemist would have a way to extract its essence and condense it into a pure Spirit Pill.

"But it’s still better than nothing; at least it’s stronger than not being able to take out anything."

In the Taichu Sacred Land, Xu Feng arranged a meeting with Zhou Minghe.

"Senior Brother Zhou, in your opinion, which of the Alien Races has the best talent for Alchemy in Kunxu Realm?" Xu Feng asked out of curiosity.

"If it’s talent for Alchemy you’re interested in, then our Human Clan. In the Kunxu Realm, our Human Clan’s Alchemy Dao is also the strongest," Zhou Minghe declared.

At that moment, Zhou Minghe exuded an aura only possessed by those in the Unification Realm.

After sensing this aura, Xu Feng was taken aback.

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Zhou for advancing towards becoming an Immortal Level Alchemist," Xu Feng said with envy.

"There’s nothing to congratulate. In the realm of Alchemy, I’m already no match for you," Zhou Minghe admitted frankly.

"Senior Brother is too modest. We each have our strengths; there are areas in which I am not as good as Senior Brother," Xu Feng quickly replied.

These two Alchemy Geniuses of the Sacred Land were jokingly referred to by fellow disciples as the "Precious Pair."

And this "Senior Precious," had already been recognized by all the powers in the Immortal Realm as a future Saint Level Alchemist.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had access to the unique Alchemy Great Scripture in the Eighth Grade Great Dao Golden Lotus Inheritance Space, he would have been left far behind by this "Senior Precious" already.

"Junior Brother, what do you need an Alien Race Alchemist for? Could it be you want to study their Alchemy Dao system?"

"If that’s the idea, I’m afraid Junior Brother Xu might be disappointed."

"The Human Clan has the strongest Alchemy Dao, followed by the Cangmu Clan, the Ming God Clan, and the Dragon Clan in the Kunxu Realm."

"I’ve looked into the Alchemy Dao systems of these great clans; they’re not too interesting, with few parts worth borrowing," Zhou Minghe reported.

"Thank you for the explanation, Senior Brother," Xu Feng gratefully replied, at least getting some information.

"Oh yes, Junior Brother Xu, I’ve noticed that the unique Spirit Pills your Xu Family’s Commerce has been selling recently—the Sword Dao and the heaven-bound methods—are quite interesting."

"How about we have a discussion on this opportunity?" Zhou Minghe said with a smile.

With the unique Spirit Pills and the reputation as the Alchemy Genius of the Taichu Sacred Land, Xu Family’s Commerce was expanding rapidly in the Taichu Immortal Domain.
