654. Chapter 652: A New Chapter in the Path of Alchemy

This has just begun.

Lu Yuan thought with anticipation.

He knew that the Spirit Qi Condensing Pill Technique was merely a small fragment of the path of alchemy.

He still had a long road ahead, and countless secrets awaited his exploration.

But it was precisely because of this insatiable desire for pursuit and exploration of the unknown that Lu Yuan felt the path of cultivation was especially fulfilling and interesting.

Suddenly, a clear bell rang, interrupting Lu Yuan's contemplation.

He looked up and saw that Su Liyan had awakened!

Su Liyan opened her eyes, and upon seeing Lu Yuan standing before her, she smiled.

You succeeded!

Yes.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, "Thanks to your constant support."

Zi Xi'er also excitedly hopped over, "Let's celebrate properly!"

After waking, Su Liyan carefully rose to her feet, smiled, walked to Lu Yuan, and lightly patted his shoulder.

Congratulations on finally succeeding!

It seems our efforts were not in vain.

Lu Yuan gazed gratefully at Su Liyan, feeling her full support and encouragement.

He smiled and said, "Thank you for always being by my side; you gave me the strength to persevere."

Just then, a knocking sound came from outside the door.

It's Steward Jin!

Zi Xi'er excitedly said, "He must have heard the commotion from our side and come over."

Steward Jin is one of the senior elders of the Lei Huo Dan Ge, enjoying high prestige within the Lei Huo Dan Ge.

He had long heard of Lu Yuan, obtaining news from a competition he presided over.

Upon learning that Lu Yuan had mastered the Spirit Qi Condensing Pill Technique and successfully refined high-grade spirit qi pills, he hurried over to congratulate.

The door was pushed open, and Steward Jin entered the alchemy chamber.

He wore a golden robe, his whole body emanating dignity and authority.

His gaze fixed on the high-grade spirit qi pill in Lu Yuan's hand, he revealed a satisfied smile.

Lu Yuan, you are truly a genius!

Steward Jin praised, "In this competition you made a name for yourself, and now you can successfully refine high-grade spirit qi pills—indeed, you are one of the most promising alchemists of our Lei Huo Dan Ge."

Steward Jin, you overpraise me.

Lu Yuan humbly said, "I still have much to learn and improve."

Steward Jin nodded, his expression turning solemn.

Lu Yuan, I've come to see you for another important reason.

He lightly exhaled, "Our Lei Huo Dan Ge has recently encountered some problems with high-grade pills."

Although there are some special immortal materials and refining methods that can cope, the insufficient supply has become a major problem.

Lu Yuan's heart leapt, and he immediately realized that what lay ahead might be a major task.

We need to solve this problem.

Steward Jin's tone was firm: "As one of the most reliable alchemists of the Lei Huo Dan Ge, I hope you can continue to hone your skills and become a top-tier alchemy master, solving the supply problem for our Lei Huo Dan Ge."

Lu Yuan slightly nodded, feeling the pressure from Steward Jin.

This is a tremendous challenge, but also an opportunity to enhance one's strength and status.

Seeing Lu Yuan's resolute performance, Steward Jin satisfiedly nodded.

I believe you will surely be capable.

He said, "This mission will provide you with ample resources and support."

If you can successfully refine even higher-grade pills, the Lei Huo Dan Ge will be extremely grateful.

Upon hearing Steward Jin's words, Lu Yuan's mind filled with brightness.

His confidence in the Spirit Qi Condensing Pill Technique he mastered grew, and he felt he was walking the path to becoming a leader in the alchemy world.

Steward Jin, I will surely do my utmost.

Lu Yuan answered resolutely, his eyes revealing determination and fighting spirit.

Zi Xi'er also heard Steward Jin's words; her gaze upon Lu Yuan was full of admiration and pride.

Husband, you can definitely do it.

Su Liyan also stood beside Lu Yuan, smiling encouragingly: "We will always support you."

Beside them, the Supreme Dao Ancestor Mo Di lightly nodded, "Lu Yuan, you are among the few truly qualified to enter the forbidden land to study the Medicinal Mystery Cultivation Method."

If you achieve outstanding results in this mission, it will greatly aid your future cultivation.

The Supreme Dao Ancestor paid close attention to Lu Yuan's development and looked forward to his rise in the alchemy world.

The group proceeded to the forbidden land—Medicinal Mystery Hall—where Lu Yuan would study higher-level alchemy.

Within the forbidden land, a towering mysterious edifice stood before everyone.

Around the hall stood gigantic pill furnaces, each exuding a rich medicinal fragrance.

Lu Yuan held his breath and focused, leading Zi Xi'er, Su Liyan, and Mo Di into the forbidden land together.

As they stepped into the Medicinal Mystery Hall, a wave-like surge of spirit qi washed over them, leaving them immensely exhilarated.

Deep within the Medicinal Mystery Hall resides a Hall Master, who instructs many disciples in advancing their alchemy.

After Lu Yuan bowed deeply, he asked the Master of the Medicinal Mystery Hall for guidance on his studies.

The Master of the Medicinal Mystery Hall, an old man with a wise and solemn visage, slightly nodded and said: "You are Lu Yuan from the Lei Huo Dan Ge, right?"

"I heard you have mastered the Spirit Qi Condensing Pill Technique and successfully refined high-grade Spirit Qi Pills."

"Yes, Master."

Lu Yuan replied respectfully.

The Master of the Medicinal Mystery Hall sized up Lu Yuan for a moment, and a flash of light passed through his eyes.

"Not bad, you have already taken the first step."

"With the foundation of high-grade Spirit Qi Pills, what you need to learn next is the Spirit Separation and Transformation Method."

He guided Lu Yuan on how to precisely control the medicinal properties and potency, dividing one batch of ingredients into four high-grade Spirit Qi Pills.

Lu Yuan immersed himself in the study, completely devoting himself to the way of alchemy.

Within the Medicinal Mystery Hall, Lu Yuan focused his mind and stabilized his breath, diligently practicing the Spirit Separation and Transformation Method.

He completely devoted himself to the way of alchemy, meticulously controlling the medicinal properties and potency, transforming the ingredients into four high-grade Spirit Qi Pills.

Zi Xi'er, Su Liyan, and Mo Di by his side also gave their full support to Lu Yuan.

Zi Xi'er took the Cold Jade Ice Slice, infusing the Ice System Immortal Method into Lu Yuan's body to grant him extra strength.

Su Liyan then used the Ice Crystal Long Whip to draw the spiritual energy drifting above the hall, condensing it into an icy mist that surrounded Lu Yuan, protecting him from external interference.

Meanwhile, Mo Di stood aside, guarding the entire scene.

As the Dragon Clan's crown prince, he possessed formidable control and combat ability, capable of blocking any enemy at critical moments.

Time slowly passed, and Lu Yuan sank deeper into his cultivation state.

He felt the spiritual energy within him gradually thickening, and his understanding of the Spirit Separation and Transformation Method continually improved.

The Master of the Medicinal Mystery Hall looked on with satisfaction, deeply understanding Lu Yuan's potential and talent, and also clear about his expectations for him.

"Lu Yuan, you are very close to a breakthrough." (End of chapter)
