Chapter 352: Chapter 352: The Crazy Uncle Master Zhao

The crowd was stunned not only by Lin Chen’s rapid collection of so many Redflame Firestones, but also by the sheer size of his storage space.

That was millions of Redflame Firestones, equivalent to several small mountains. One can only imagine how large Lin Chen’s storage ring must be.

As for the wonders of Lin Chen’s person, everyone had become accustomed to seeing strange occurrences around him.

Wang Dachui and his two companions couldn’t help feeling envious of Yang Yuemin as they watched Lin Chen; they had heard that Yang Yuemin also received a space ring from Lin Chen and wondered if her ring was also as capacious.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s main body ignored the gazes of Wang Dachui and the others, while his Divine Sense secretly warned the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron not to get any ideas about those Redflame Firestones.

Previously, when they were underground, the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron had already snatched the energy from the Redflame Vein that Lin Chen was absorbing.

By the time Lin Chen realized what happened, it was already too late to hold it accountable.

Fortunately, the Jade Token that contained the energy of the Redflame Vein was filled to capacity, so Lin Chen did not quarrel with the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron over this issue.

However, this time, Lin Chen needed those Redflame Firestones to refine the Purple Thunder Suit for the disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect, a matter critical to the survival of everyone in Divine Sun City, including Yang Yuemin, Zhao Yijing, and others. Thus, he was extremely cautious and could not allow the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron to devour them again.

After receiving Lin Chen’s warning, the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, knowing it was in the wrong from the previous encounter, adhered to the agreement that it could only share forty percent of Lin Chen’s treasures. Therefore, after having taken energy underground earlier, it did not attempt to seize any of the Redflame Firestones that Lin Chen placed in his space this time.

The Dragon Fang Dagger, which was originally looking forward to sharing the spoils with the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, was left without a share after the cauldron capitulated, leaving it without any gain.

This was the space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, so if it didn’t touch Lin Chen’s possessions, naturally the Dragon Fang Dagger dared not.

As the digging continued, Lin Chen entered a period of cultivation, while his Second Soul Division took advantage of the Redflame Firestones in this underground location to refine Magic Artifacts.

During Lin Chen’s absence deep in the mountains, Xu Ma’an, Yang Yuemin, and others had not received any news from him, causing them great unease, so they decided to come over.

Only upon seeing with their own eyes that everyone was safe and sound were they finally able to set their minds at ease.

Having come underground, Zhao Rushi, who accompanied them, was interested to see Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division refining elixirs and Magic Artifacts and went over to watch.

After all, Lin Chen’s Alchemy and Artifact Refining skills now far surpassed her own, it’s just that Zhao Rushi was too stubborn to drop her pride and admit it.

After all, she had lived for several decades and practiced Alchemy and Artifact Refining for just as long, but now a youth of barely seventeen or eighteen had surpassed her, a fact that would be hard for anyone to stomach.

"Wait a minute... the flame he’s using for Alchemy is... Divine Fire!?"

Zhao Rushi, having approached Lin Chen’s alchemy practice, was visibly shocked and envious upon realizing that the flame in Lin Chen’s hand was Divine Fire.

Divine Fire, that was something every Alchemist and Artifact Refiner dreamed of possessing.

Zhao Rushi could never have imagined that Lin Chen had mastered Divine Fire.

This stirred her already intense interest in Alchemy even more, and the moment she saw the Divine Fire in Lin Chen’s hand, an idea was born.

What a scene it would be if Lin Chen were to lend her the Divine Fire.

The elixirs she had failed to refine in the past, could she succeed with the help of Lin Chen’s Divine Fire?

Regardless, Zhao Rushi decided to give it a try.

"Nephew Master, is this ethereal green flame in your hand Divine Fire?"

"No, it’s not!"

Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division replied earnestly.

At these words, Zhao Rushi immediately rolled her eyes.

"Nephew Master, why hide it from me? Isn’t that flame just Divine Fire?"

Zhao Rushi pressed.

Hearing this, Lin Chen felt utterly speechless inside, musing that if she already knew, why bother pretending to ask?

"Uncle Master Zhao, if you’re inquiring about Divine Fire, is there something you wish to request?"

Seeing the look in Zhao Rushi’s eyes when she observed his flame, a bad premonition rose within him.

"Lin Chen, my nephew, I would like to borrow your Divine Fire for a moment."

Zhao Rushi’s eyes shone as she looked at the flame in Lin Chen’s hand and said unabashedly.

At her words, Lin Chen was at a loss for words; he had never heard of anyone borrowing Divine Fire before.

He had indeed refined the Blue Lotus Divine Flame, but as for lending it to someone else, he had no idea whether it was feasible.

Lin Chen initially did not want to agree, but he couldn’t withstand Zhao Rushi’s relentless pestering and eventually had to capitulate.

Watching Zhao Rushi take out various alchemy materials, Lin Chen’s apprehension deepened.

"Uncle Master Zhao, these... these are Fourth-Grade materials?"

Lin Chen blurted out in surprise at the materials Zhao Rushi had produced.

All of these materials were Fourth-Grade, indicating Zhao Rushi was planning to use Fourth-Grade elixirs as auxiliary substances to refine a Fifth Grade Elixir.

Indeed, only the intention to refine a Fifth Grade Elixir would explain the vast amount of Fourth-Grade Elixirs Zhao Rushi intended to use as auxiliary substances.

"Yes, indeed, they are Fourth-Grade materials. What about it?"

Zhao Rushi responded to Lin Chen with a puzzled look.

"Uncle Master Zhao, are you planning to refine a Fifth Grade Elixir?"

Lin Chen continued to probe.

"Exactly, I intend to refine a Fifth Grade Elixir, a Void-Breaking Pill."

Zhao Rushi answered without any attempt to conceal her intentions, her eyes even carrying a hint of longing.

Hearing this, Lin Chen truly didn’t know what to do.

That was a Fifth Grade Elixir, after all. Even with Lin Chen’s full ability and his Second Soul Division’s cooperation, there was no certainty of successfully refining it, and with Zhao Rushi’s alchemy skills, the likelihood of failure was immense.
