Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Gu Chenfeng remained in Lingyun Hall all those three days, providing step-by-step guidance to Ling Qiushui on alchemy.
After three days, even though Gu Chenfeng wasn’t an alchemist, he was as exhausted as a dog.
Fortunately, Ling Qiushui’s talent in alchemy was exceptionally high, and under Gu Chenfeng’s patient guidance, she successfully refined the Infinite Profound Fire Pill on her second attempt.
The elixir refined by a Sixth Grade Alchemist was of such high quality that it attracted a magical phenomenon from heaven and earth.
The miraculous phenomenon startled all the disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect.
The Sect Leader and Celestial Monarch Xing, among others, rushed to Lingyun Hall immediately.
This was because it was the first Sixth Grade Pill Ling Qiushui had refined since breaking through as a Sixth Grade Alchemist, attracting such a phenomenon.
This delighted Ling Qiushui immensely, and her excited laughter constantly echoed through Lingyun Hall.
Those who didn’t know might have thought Ling Qiushui had gone mad.
Gu Chenfeng thought this would be the end of it, but he didn’t expect this was just the beginning.
Ling Qiushui spent a whole day refining the Infinite Profound Fire Pill to gain proficiency, with Gu Chenfeng observing from the side to point out issues as they arose.
Celestial Monarch Xing also joined the alchemy team.
That entire day, a heavenly phenomenon appeared in the sky over the Ancient Divine Sect.
However, this was not the end.
Over the next two days, Gu Chenfeng further guided Ling Qiushui and Celestial Monarch Xing in refining the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill. Just preparing the medicinal ingredients nearly drove Gu Chenfeng mad.
It was already a headache to guide one person in refining, let alone two.
Bear in mind that Gu Chenfeng was not an alchemist.
Yet despite not being an alchemist, he was more exhausted than one.
After those three days, Ling Qiushui and Celestial Monarch Xing had fully mastered the refining of the Infinite Profound Fire Pill and the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill, their excitement and joy beyond words.
Especially the powerful effects of the elixirs, which nearly drove the two of them insane.
Only Gu Chenfeng was about to lose his mind.
Dragging his utterly exhausted body back to the Immortal Residence of Eternal Youth, the tranquil and quiet environment made Gu Chenfeng feel incredibly comfortable.
"The more exhausted, the more I must cultivate," Gu Chenfeng thought to himself.
Entering the grand hall, Gu Chenfeng immediately entered the Returning Ruins Illusion Realm.
Upon entering the Returning Ruins Illusion Realm, a boundless landscape of icebergs and snowy terrain came into view.
"This Returning Ruins Illusion Realm is indeed a cultivation holy land, not only is the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi more than ten times stronger than the outside world, but the ice attribute energy is equally abundant," Gu Chenfeng muttered to himself with a smile, his motivation to cultivate arising spontaneously.
Gu Chenfeng immediately sat cross-legged, took a deep breath, and then commenced cultivation with the Heavenly Dao Godslaying Technique.
Gu Chenfeng muttered again, "This time, I must break through to the Middle Stage of Fasting."
Soon, immense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and ice attribute energy madly converged on Gu Chenfeng, with huge visible clouds of spiritual qi.
Gu Chenfeng knew it was due to the Celestial Emperor’s Blood.
Gu Chenfeng had only been cultivating for a short while when he suddenly said, "Right, Senior Brother Yang and the others mentioned that I had devoured the power of the Fasting Stage, but I have no memory of it."
"Could it also be the Celestial Emperor’s Blood? But even if I broke through the Fasting Stage, I still haven’t sensed the existence of the Celestial Emperor’s Blood. Could it be that I need to break through to the Golden Core Stage to sense it?"
Back then, Gu Chenfeng was driven by anger, which triggered the Devouring Power.
Under normal circumstances, Gu Chenfeng couldn’t sense the presence of the Celestial Emperor’s Blood or the Devouring Power.
"Never mind, once my cultivation is strong enough, I’ll naturally sense it. For now, I must first break through to the Middle Stage of Fasting," Gu Chenfeng gently shook his head and continued cultivating.
Ling Qiushui and Celestial Monarch Xing were watching their own refined powerful Sixth Grade Pill with excitement.
"Since breaking through as a Sixth Grade Alchemist, this is the first time I’ve refined such high-quality Sixth Grade Pills!" Ling Qiushui said with immense joy, resembling an excited kitten.
"I feel the same," Celestial Monarch Xing exclaimed in wild joy, "even as a Seventh Grade Alchemist, I’ve never refined such high-quality Sixth Grade Pills before."
"Although Gu Chenfeng isn’t an alchemist, his insights in the alchemy domain far surpass mine, probably even Eighth Grade Alchemists don’t compare to Gu Chenfeng."
"This Gu Chenfeng is truly terrifying," Ling Qiushui said with immense joy, "I can’t believe it, he’s clearly not an alchemist, yet he has such terrifying mastery in the alchemy domain."
What they didn’t know was that Gu Chenfeng had received the memory inheritance of the Eternal Celestial Emperor, and even though he wasn’t an alchemist, his mastery in the alchemy domain was undeniably the strongest existence in the Divine Realm.
In Gu Chenfeng’s presence, Eighth Grade Alchemists in the Cultivation Realm were nothing but trash.
Ling Qiushui continued with a smile, "With the help of the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill, my foundation and cultivation will soon recover; the elixir’s effects are exceptionally powerful."
Celestial Monarch Xing asked excitedly, "Junior Sister, what do you think will happen if the Cultivation Realm finds out our Ancient Divine Sect possesses such miraculous elixirs?"
"Isn’t that obvious?" Ling Qiushui said with great pride, lifting her chin, "Even Tribulation Stage experts will come seeking us, and by then, who in the Cultivation Realm would dare provoke the Ancient Divine Sect?"
"Haha!" Celestial Monarch Xing couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"However," Ling Qiushui slightly furrowed her brows like Liu Mei.
"However, what?" Celestial Monarch Xing asked.
Looking at the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill in her hand, Ling Qiushui frowned, "Both the pill formula and refining technique were given to Gu Chenfeng by the Immortal Residence of Eternal Youth. If the powerful effects of the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill were to spread, it would undoubtedly bring trouble to the Divine Sect."
"But if we want the Ancient Divine Sect to become stronger, the news of the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill must spread, we just need to ask for Gu Chenfeng’s opinion." Get full chapters from novᴇlfire.net
"Hmm." Celestial Monarch Xing nodded and said, "Indeed, it may cause trouble, but Junior Sister, you’ve worried too much. Without Gu Chenfeng’s guidance, even we couldn’t refine it."
"The pill formula is extremely complex, and refining it is even more challenging. Even an Eighth Grade Alchemist may not be able to refine it, so there’s no need to worry about the news causing trouble."
"Even if a transcendent force comes to snatch it, just give them a simplified pill formula. Without the refining technique and a detailed formula, they can’t possibly refine it."
"Second Senior Brother’s words are indeed reasonable." Ling Qiushui nodded.
Then suddenly recalling something, Ling Qiushui hastily said, "Second Senior Brother, why don’t we take one to the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association for auction?"
"Auction?" Celestial Monarch Xing was initially taken aback, then frowned, "The Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill is a priceless treasure; isn’t it inappropriate for auction?"
Ling Qiushui smiled proudly, "Second Senior Brother, auctioning the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill can exchange for a powerful celestial technique and also use the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association to disseminate the pill’s effects, which will undoubtedly attract many experts and alchemists."
"Exchanging a Sixth Grade Pill for a powerful celestial technique is worthwhile, and we can refine it at any time, so the cost for us is just the price of the materials. Let’s do it this way."
Celestial Monarch Xing quickly replied, "Junior Sister, you need to obtain Gu Chenfeng’s permission first."
"He will definitely agree." Ling Qiushui said with confident laughter.
