Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Searching for Herbal Materials

"What is this?"

Lin Chen subconsciously took the Yellow Hide Scroll from Zhao Rushi’s hands.

"This is actually a Pill Recipe."

He opened the scroll to look and discovered it was a recipe for a Fifth Grade Elixir.

"Transformation Pill, reviving the dead and regenerating bones, where the soul does not perish, the body does not fade."

"Such a potent elixir, as long as the body remains intact, it can restore the body to its original state, truly worthy to be called the Transformation Pill."

As Lin Chen looked at the Pill Recipe handed over by Zhao Rushi, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he found himself unable to part with the Transformation Pill Recipe in his hands. For Lin Chen, this Pill Recipe was currently the highest-level elixir formula he possessed.

Moreover, this elixir was specifically designed for healing injuries. Lin Chen knew that Zhao Rushi, a woman who cherished elixirs as her life, would only give such an important Pill Recipe to him because she felt guilty for the injury he suffered due to her cauldron explosion.

With Lin Chen’s current level of Alchemy, he might really attempt to refine it, although the ingredients listed on the Pill Recipe included several herbal materials not commonly available.

Hence, if Lin Chen wanted to refine it, he would still need to gather the required herbal materials, and most high-grade materials were with his main body—his Second Soul Division currently had no materials for refining.

"Thank you, Uncle Master Zhao. Actually, about that day, I really didn’t see anything, so Uncle Master Zhao, please don’t be angry anymore."

The moment Lin Chen thought about Zhao Rushi suddenly being so kind to him, he felt a bit guilty inside and thus brought up the cauldron explosion incident to apologize.

However, had he not mentioned it, it might have been better. As soon as he spoke, Zhao Rushi’s face changed, and her anger flared up immediately.

"You just had to bring up the one thing you shouldn’t have; go to hell for all I care," she snapped.

Seeing that Lin Chen brought up the incident again, Zhao Rushi immediately became furious and made a move against him.

With Spiritual Light flickering in her hand, Zhao Rushi was not merely joking around, she was genuinely attempting to deal a killing blow.

When a woman gets ruthless, she can be truly merciless. In Zhao Rushi’s view, Lin Chen’s clone had demonstrated combat power in the battle of Divine Sun City that even combatants of the Reverting Void Realm would somewhat fear; thus, Zhao Rushi did not hesitate to strike with lethal intent.

Seeing Zhao Rushi take action, even as he tried to apologize, Lin Chen was utterly speechless inside. At this juncture, he knew that no matter how he explained, it would be difficult to quell the fury in Zhao Rushi’s heart, so he simply decided to flee.

As Lin Chen tried to flee, Zhao Rushi kicked him in the buttocks, sending him flying out of the room.

"Junior Brother Lin Chen, what are you up to now?"

Just as Lin Chen was kicked out of the secret chamber, Wang Yilin appeared outside unexpectedly. At that moment, several True Disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect happened to pass by and witnessed the scene. They immediately walked away with serious expressions, and soon they began whispering among themselves.

Lin Chen had excellent hearing; he could hear everything those disciples were discussing clearly, and he felt utterly at a loss for words.

All he wanted was to apologize, so how could it have turned into flirting with Uncle Master?

Lin Chen didn’t bother to pay attention to the nonsense talked by these fellows, and instead, he went straight to the Library Pavilion.

With Zhao Rushi there, it was definitely impossible to go into seclusion and refine elixirs today.

Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division arrived at the Scripture Pavilion, which now, located within the Royal Family’s domain, was not limited to the scripts and secret texts of the Jade Cauldron Sect alone, but contained a collection of texts from the Jade Cauldron Sect, the Great Flame Imperial Family, and Wanxing Commerce Association.

Lin Chen came to search because he wanted to find sources for the herbal materials on the Pill Recipe that Zhao Rushi had given him.

The herbal materials listed on the Transformation Pill Recipe were unfamiliar to Lin Chen, hence he needed to peruse the information carefully.

It should be noted that Lin Chen had already read many books in the Jade Cauldron Sect, yet the materials in this Fifth-grade Elixir Recipe puzzled him, which reflected the preciousness of this Pill Recipe.

The Library Pavilion before him was one of the important treasure spots of the Jade Cauldron Sect, and it wasn’t a place just anyone could enter to browse at will. After all, it housed a variety of geographical knowledge and many powerful secret techniques.

To gain entry to the Scripture Pavilion, one needed to reach a certain level of Contribution Value, and each entry required a deduction of these points.

But Lin Chen had no such restrictions; with his current position in the Jade Cauldron Sect, he could come and go freely at any time.

Upon arriving at the doors of the Scripture Pavilion, the two Guardian Elders appeared and greeted Lin Chen, then opened the restrictions of the Scripture Pavilion for him.

Seeing this, Lin Chen nodded and then entered the Scripture Pavilion.

After searching inside the Pavilion, Lin Chen finally found the sources for those particular herbal materials.

"These herbal materials are actually all located within the Black Cloud Mountain Range," he murmured in surprise.

After examining the books, Lin Chen knew the production sites for the herbal materials needed to refine the Transformation Pill, but he was greatly astonished.

Black Cloud Mountain lay to the north, close to the territory of the Black Cloud Sect, and it was unknown what kind of dangers it might harbor.

Now in Divine Sun City, Lin Chen’s combat power could be considered the strongest. Xu Ma’an was at a critical point in his breakthrough, and after the breakthrough, his Cultivation might compare to Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division. However, it was uncertain who would be the stronger with the support of the Killing Formation.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s main body was still in the mountain gorge, mining Redflame Firestone, and presumably needed another four or five days before returning.

However, the injuries Lin Chen sustained were not healing quickly, and now, refining the Transformation Pill was the fastest way to recover.

Only if the Black Cloud Sect attacked would Lin Chen be able to exert his greatest power to protect everyone.

Yet if Lin Chen left now to search for the herbal materials, Divine Sun City would be without his presence, possibly resulting in danger.

After much deliberation, Lin Chen still decided to head for Black Cloud Mountain himself.

Lin Chen, after consulting with Xu Ma’an and Li Xuanming, handed over the Dragon Vein Jade Seal to Li Xuanming and instructed him on how to use it.

Though when in Li Xuanming’s hands, the power of the Dragon Vein summoned by the Jade Seal was not as strong as when Lin Chen used it. After all, the Divine Fire Troop Killing Array directed by Lin Chen had greater lethality.
