Primordial Emperor

Chapter 458: 458

"Hahaha... The old woman has finally made her breakthrough."

"Where’s Lin Chen? Where’s Lin Chen? He promised me the Pill Spirit Array and all those Heavenly and Earthly Treasures for pill refining. Hand them over, now!"

Just as Xu Ma’an recovered, a hearty and slightly excited laughter suddenly filled Divine Sun City. Shortly after, a woman with disheveled hair and unkempt clothing flew toward the crowd.

But when Xu Ma’an opened his eyes and took a close look at the newcomer, he was immediately shocked.

The most shocked was Yang Yuemin. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at her good sister.

"Junior Sister, how did you manage to get yourself into such a state? There are so many disciples here. If you don’t care about the face of your position as Peak Master, we old fellows still care about ours."

Xu Ma’an was quite speechless because the person who had arrived was none other than their Junior Sister, Zhao Rushi.

In her current state, Zhao Rushi looked nothing like a Peak Master – she was more like a beggar woman.

"Master..."

Wang Yilin felt a twinge of pain in her heart as she looked at her Master, reduced to such a disheveled state.

In the past, her Master was graceful as a fairy, her demeanor in no way inferior to that of Yang Yuemin.

But now, reeking from head to toe, she looked no different from a beggar woman; the fairy-like aura was nowhere to be found.

"My good disciple, have you seen that bastard Lin Chen?"

Zhao Rushi, with her hair in disarray, approached Wang Yilin and asked eagerly.

Wang Yilin’s eyes moistened slightly, feeling incredibly sorry for her Master.

She had heard about Zhao Rushi’s situation.

She never expected that Zhao Rushi, once she began cultivating diligently, would become so desperate in her efforts.

"I will naturally honor my promise."

Lin Chen himself hadn’t expected that in just a short month, Zhao Rushi would have made a cultivation breakthrough.

Whoosh—

Lin Chen gestured grandly with his hand and returned the Pill Spirit Array and the previously confiscated Heavenly and Earthly Treasures to Zhao Rushi.

After catching the treasures thrown by Lin Chen, Zhao Rushi immediately stored them inside her Spatial Ring. Her eyes sparkled as she then flew back to her alchemy room for seclusion, eager to indulge in the alchemy she had missed out on during her recent devotion to cultivation.

"Has Junior Sister Zhao been possessed by a demon? She never used to be this crazy about pill refining."

Xu Ma’an watched Zhao Rushi’s departing figure and said with confusion.

The others exchanged looks, equally puzzled.

However, what they didn’t know was that Zhao Rushi’s change was entirely due to the Pill Refining Secrets that Lin Chen had given her.

The profound philosophies contained in the secrets played an immeasurable role in enhancing her pill refining realm, which explained Zhao Rushi’s obsession with alchemy.

She longed to refine Fifth Grade Elixirs, but with her talent, it would take time to reach the level of a Fifth Grade Alchemist.

However, with Lin Chen’s given Pill Refining Secrets, she could bypass many detours.

Thus, Zhao Rushi’s obsession with alchemy was no surprise.

"Ah, have we been too harsh on our Senior Sister?"

Yang Yuemin looked at Zhao Rushi’s retreating figure and couldn’t help but miss her cheerful Senior Sister.

The current state of Zhao Rushi might be entirely due to the pressure they had put on her.

"No matter, Junior Sister Zhao’s aptitude was never lacking. It’s just that she loves alchemy and has been too relaxed about her cultivation."

"Now that she has the motivation, it’s good for her to put in some hard work. At least her cultivation is advancing rapidly. At our age, it’s very rare to have such an opportunity for a breakthrough. Let her be."

As Xu Ma’an thought about how hard they cultivated and still couldn’t keep pace with Lin Chen, he felt that it was fine for Zhao Rushi to have turned out this way.

As long as one’s cultivation could progress and improve, what did a little hardship matter?

After Lin Chen’s second soul division finished fighting with Xu Ma’an and the others, he left them with some Bone-Transforming Pills for healing, then returned to his own secret chamber.

For the current Lin Chen, refining Bone-Transforming Pills was quite easy. These Fourth-Grade Elixirs could quickly heal a martial artist’s injuries as long as they were not killed and still had a breath of life in them.

Upon returning to the secret chamber, Lin Chen began to organize various martial skill techniques.

These skills were not his own realizations, but rather found among the treasures he’d plundered from the secret realm of the Formation Sect.

Some techniques he could cultivate himself, while he would put others into the Jade Cauldron Sect’s Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, available for disciples who made great contributions to the sect to exchange using Contribution Value.

These martial skill techniques, while mundane to Lin Chen, were extraordinarily precious to the other disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

By doing this, the skills and techniques would not go to waste and could be maximized to their fullest potential.

You must know that the cultivation techniques and martial skills received by Lin Chen were at least Earth Level Low Grade, and there were quite a few of Earth Level Mid-Grade and Upper Earth Grade too.

The cultivation techniques and martial skills would even cause Xu Ma’an and the others’ hearts to flutter.

However, there were no Earth Grade Top Tier cultivation techniques or martial skills at all.

After all, the martial artists that Lin Chen had plundered at the Formation Sect’s recruitment were only of medium level amongst all who participated, not the heavenly prides.
