Li Yingzhang coughed once and shook his head: "You don’t need to go to the Alchemy Institute. The sect has already arranged a cultivation cave mansion for you, just go and cultivate in seclusion."
Qu Lingjun was somewhat incredulous.
"Is this your idea or Master’s idea?"
Li Yingzhang did not answer, merely handed him a storage bag.
With his current status, he didn’t need to beat around the bush.
By avoiding the answer , the answer was...
Qu Lingjun’s face gradually turned pale.
Baili Qingchuan wasn’t big, but it had a solid Third Order Spirit Vein.
It’s by relying on this fine Spirit Vein that Baili Medicine Field could be nurtured.
After the Luo Tian Sect arrived, they opened up five cave mansions with Third Order Spirit Qi intensity for the day-to-day cultivation of Golden Core cultivators.
Eight or nine Golden Core cultivators, squeezing in and taking turns, could somehow manage.
After Luo Chen returned, he did not choose the Third Order cave mansion.
Instead, he selected a picturesque spot on Daqing Mountain as a temporary residence cave mansion.
He was currently in a state of stabilizing his realm, containing a large amount of unrefined Qi Power within him, all infused with Yuan Qi bestowed by the heavens while comprehending the True Intent of Withering and Flourishing.
Moreover, he possessed a substantial stash of Ascendant Grade Hong Yuan Pills previously refined, ensuring he wasn’t lacking Spirit Qi replenishment for the time being.
At that moment, two figures were busy inside the cave mansion.
"Xiao Qi, use the pill technique I passed on to you and refine the Purple Monkey Flower again. These flowers sent by Shen Fu Sect have been here too long and lack the potency for condensation."
Qi Yi walked to the shelf holding the Purple Monkey Flowers and took them out one by one.
After preparing, he suddenly asked: "Supreme Elder, why not let Qu Lingjun help you? I heard his Pill Refinement Technique has reached a masterful level, comparable to some Third Order Pill Refiners."
Luo Chen, who was cutting the Five Elements Lotus Stand, asked back without looking up: "Why, do you think you aren’t capable?"
Qi Yi shook his head hastily. Being able to help Luo Chen refine pills and observe the making of the Nascent Soul Formation Pill was an opportunity he dreamed of.
He couldn’t miss such a chance due to a lack of self-confidence.
He hesitated for a moment and said: "I just wanted to have one more person to help you share some of the work. This way, the success rate of refining the Nascent Soul Formation Pill would be higher."
"Don’t worry, refining the Nascent Soul Formation Pill doesn’t pressure me. Don’t overthink, focus on the preparation work. This experience will be greatly beneficial to you."
Qi Yi no longer asked questions and focused on handling the Purple Monkey Flowers.
The small knife in Luo Chen’s hand moved back and forth on the Five Elements Lotus Stand, cutting off pieces of the lotus platform connected by apertures.
As for Qi Yi’s question earlier, Luo Chen had already found the answer in his heart.
"Lingjun’s talent is too poor; these years, he expended too much effort on pill refinement for Fenghua Palace, so much so that he’s still not been able to reach Late Stage Foundation Establishment despite his age."
"Now that he’s returned, he mustn’t be distracted any further."
"Choose a Spirit Land and cultivate arduously for fifty years; perhaps before his lifespan ends, he has one chance to fight for the Golden Core. If successful, his lifespan doubles, offering boundless possibilities."
"I hope he’s able to understand my intentions and not get blinded by other things."
Sighing inwardly, Luo Chen continued cutting the Five Elements Lotus Stand. The source of this content ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Elder Fu had given him two Five Elements Lotus Stands, both without lotus seeds, with his pill technique, he could open the furnace to refine the Nascent Soul Formation Pill twenty times.
However, with successes precedent, he could save one lotus stand for his own use.
Han Zhan had told him about the wonderful use of this item back in the Land of Fallen Demons.
The Five Elements Lotus Stand is not actually used as medicinal material.
The lotus seeds contain the essence of the Five Elements, which is too extreme, and more suitable for artifact refining.
The lotus stand itself is extraordinarily translucent, capable of filtering impurities from Heaven and Earth Qi, often used by Nascent Soul True Masters as an auxiliary tool for cultivation during meditation.
Years ago, in the Blazing Refinement Prison, Luo Chen had borrowed an Top Grade Lotus Stand for a short period which greatly improved his cultivation level.
After experiencing its effect, he held onto it dearly.
The two lotus stands given by Elder Fu weren’t particularly high quality but were adequate.
Luo Chen sat cross-legged on the lotus stand he had cut corners with, closing his eyes to rest before pill refinement.
His mind was quite active.
"Now there are many matters, although not troublesome, yet quite problematic."
"Even if I can multitask, I am still unable to be in two places at once."
"But I condensed two soul splits; if I could assign them tasks, it might save me a lot of time and accelerate progress in various areas."
With that thought, Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes.
Soul splits can’t last outside for long, they need a body to reside in.
With Han Zhan’s precedent, he could follow suit to a certain extent.
"I need two puppets!"
In his storage ring was a White Tiger Puppet.
But that thing’s order was too high, and it contained a Spirit, which his current soul split couldn’t control.
Having researched for years, Luo Chen was somewhat confident in subduing it, but his own realm wasn’t enough, forcing control could lead to backlash, ultimately too risky.
"Let Yuan Jiao come over."
With a thought, Luo Chen sent a Divine Consciousness Voice Transmission.
Before long, Qin Yuanjiang arrived at Luo Chen’s Cave Mansion.
When Luo Chen expressed his need for two puppets, Qin Yuanjiang didn’t hesitate, fetching a large pile of puppets from his storage bag.
Seeing the vast array of puppets, lined up and dazzling, Luo Chen was somewhat surprised.
Qin Yuanjiang smiled slightly, "Just some crudely made items, meant to be detonated directly when confronting an enemy."
