Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

Following Chen Yu's actions, the endless medicinal strength was absorbed by the Spirit Connecting Vine.    

    

Just a single branch of the Rising Dragon Branch naturally did not have that much medicinal power. It was indeed a second rank spiritual medicine, but to the current Chen Yu, a second rank spiritual medicine was not even worth mentioning.    

    

However, there were a lot of Dragon-Subduing Flowers here. After Chen Yu used his hands, they looked exactly the same as before. However, in reality, they had lost a lot of their spirituality and were very weak in terms of medicinal properties.    

    

Chen Yu clearly felt the surging medicinal energy hidden within the Spirit Connecting Vine after each branch's medicinal energy was absorbed. Once this medicinal energy was used, it would have a huge effect on him.    

    

Naturally, the efficacy of a Grade 2 Elixir was far from that of a Grade 4 or 5 Elixir. However, with the strength of tens or hundreds of Elixirs, it was unlikely that it was inferior to a Grade 4 or 5 Elixir. Moreover, the key point was that a second grade spirit medicine did not have any Spirit Attribute difference. To Chen Yu, this medicine could be divided into five Spirit Vortex and he did not need to worry about conflicts.    

    

"What a pleasant surprise!" Chen Yu grinned and increased his speed.    

    

Chen Yu was still not satisfied with the two hundred plus branches being used. However, at this moment, Ming Hong walked over and said: "Chen Yu, Zhao Ming, switch seats!"    

    

Zhao Ming was a warrior who was dealing with another herb, so he got up and came over to exchange seats with Chen Yu.    

    

Chen Yu looked over to where Zhao Ming had come over from and saw that it was piled with Tier 3 White Spirit Grass. Its rank was one level higher than that of the branch of the Rising Dragon.    

    

The effects of a Grade 3 Elixir was naturally higher than that of a Grade 2 Elixir. Chen Yu did not react, but he was happy, and after changing his position, he concocted the White Spirit Grass according to the law, at the same time continuing to absorb the medicine through the Spirit Connecting Vine.    

    

In just a short half an hour, Chen Yu clearly felt that the Spirit Connecting Vine's medicinal effects were already majestic, and at this moment, the profound mystery of the Spirit Connecting Vine also surfaced.    

    

Chen Yu worked harder and harder, his actions were clean and straightforward.    

    

Ming Hong occasionally looks at Chen Yu, Chen Yu does this kind of drudgery is still so hot and confused.    

    

Time passed. When night fell, more than half of the herbs were treated. Ming Hong brought his men to place a fluorite in the courtyard, causing the courtyard to be as bright as day. However, he didn't give any orders for anyone to rest.    

    

From the conversations of the Medicinal Spirit Academy disciples that were preparing the medicinal ingredients, Chen Yu knew that he had made it in time. This batch of medicinal ingredients had just been harvested and had to be disposed of as soon as possible.    

    

The Medicinal Spirit Academy's medicinal herbs were harvested every once in a while. Every time they were harvested, they would need to be processed in a short period of time before being put into the medicine warehouse to be used in the refinement of medicinal ointments and in the refinement of medicinal pellets. And those who participated in the handling of these medicinal herbs would receive many contribution points.    

    

Chen Yu could only continue to work hard.    

    

In the next day and a half, Chen Yu changed positions a few more times under the arrangement of Ming Hong, successively going through five different kinds of second and third grade Elixirs.    

    

After a day and a half, the essence of the medicine that Chen Yu's Spirit Connecting Vine extracted had already reached a level that even made Chen Yu tremble with fear.    

    

Spirit Connecting Vine could absorb wood essence to heal wounds, and it could also absorb the qi from dead warriors. It could be absorbed and refined by Chen Yu, but this was Chen Yu's first time trying to directly absorb a level two or three Elixir.    

    

Compared to taking second or third grade spirit medicine directly, Chen Yu's absorption of the medicine through the Spirit Connecting Vine was much more efficient. This made Chen Yu think of putting the Spirit Connecting Vine into the medicine fields.    

    

Of course, there were Medicinal Spirit Academy disciples patrolling the medicine fields of the Langya Sword Sect. Chen Yu only thought of that, if he was discovered using Spiritual Soul to devour spirit medicines, he would definitely not be able to handle it.    

    

When all the ingredients were processed, the Medicinal Spirit Academy disciples dispersed and Cang Yun also appeared. He expressionlessly called over Chen Yu and Moo Su, and passed through a door at the very back of the courtyard.    

    

There was an open area outside the gate and at the other end of the open area, there was an open palace. Outside the palace, there were disciples at the peak of the Spirit Accumulation Stage guarding it.    

    

This, was precisely the Langya Sword Sect's medicine warehouse.    

    

This time, Cang Yun did not call out to Chen Yu and Chen Yu, he only instructed the disciples outside the medicine warehouse to bring out the two Profound Dark Stage elders who were in charge of this place to meet.    

    

The two elders that came out were both at the early stage of Profound Dark Stage. One of them was over a hundred years old, while the other was over forty years old.    

    

Chen Yu guessed that Cang Yun was giving him an opportunity to recognize the two elders, but Chen Yu did not feel that anything was amiss with the two elders, nor did he think that the elders of the Profound Dark Stage were the cloaked man.    

    

On the way northwest, three to five miles away, numerous continuous palaces appeared.    

    

Compared to the Medicinal Spirit Academy's medicine warehouse and the small courtyard the Academy Master lived in, these Facial Palace Palaces appeared to be magnificent, much more majestic, and finally revealed their profound strength as one of the nine great academies.    

    

On the flat ground outside the palace, there was a stone tablet. On the stone tablet, there was a large 'Dan' character.    

    

It was obvious that this was the most important alchemy room in Medicinal Spirit Academy, and also the place for alchemists.    

    

There were still some patrolling disciples who came to pay their respects. Cang Yun nodded and then led Chen Yu and Wu Tie through the palace. Before long, they arrived at the entrance of a palace.    

    

The door was wide open, and a surge of heat emanated from it.    

    

Chen Yu was quite looking forward to knowing that this should be the alchemy room.    

    

In the Ruling Spirit Sect, Chen Yu had never seen concocting pills before, and even though there was a Pill Cauldron Pavilion in existence, he had never been there. In Bloodfire Emperor's memory, there was a scene of one personally refining a pill, but that was limited to first or second rank low rank Medicine Pill.    

    

There were many methods to concoct pills that could be said to be ever-changing. However, most of the higher ranked alchemists had already returned to their original ways. They put aside the basic methods and used divine will to control the flame, using it to concoct pills.    

    

As an important part of refining pills, Chen Yu wanted to learn the Fire Controlling Technique. If he could learn even a little bit, then it would be beneficial for him.    

    

He saw eight pill furnaces scattered throughout the hall, arranged in a gossiping position. Among them, there were six pill furnaces boiling with steam, and beside each of the pill furnaces, there were three martial artists wearing standard vestments guarding them.    

    

Four men paced back and forth between the pill furnaces, inspecting the six pill furnaces. One of them was a skinny old man who exuded an aura as deep as the abyss as he paced. The remaining three people were two males and one female. All of them possessed extraordinary strength, and were at least at the peak of the Spirit Accumulation Stage.    

    

The moment Cang Yun entered, the old man turned his head to take a look and walked towards him.    

    

Chen Yu was a bit disappointed when he saw the scene in the hall.    

    

If one were to concoct pills with a cauldron, it was natural to not be able to see the scene of one's divine will controlling fire to concoct pills.    

    

After exchanging a few words with the old man, Cang Yun pointed at Wu Tie and said, "Elder Zhuge, this is Chen Yu, the new direct disciple of the Sovereign. Cang Yun and the old man exchanged a few words with the old man and pointed at Wu Tie and said," Elder Zhuge, this is Chen Yu.    

    

The old man's name was Zhuge Liehfeng, and after hearing that, he revealed a surprised expression. He looked at Chen Yu and said, "Sect Master's new direct disciple?"    

    

"That's right!" Cang Yun said, "Chen Yu, show your identity token to Elder Zhuge!"    

    

Chen Yu did not move, but Moo Su slapped his Storage Bag and took out the order badge that Hsu Yuan had given to her.    

    

Zhuge Liehfeng did not pick up the token. He just glanced at it and his expression changed, "It's the Sect Leader's token?"    

    

Cang Yun was also stunned for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect this.    

    

The sect master's medallion was the identity medallion of the Sword Sect Sect Master, Zuo Hsingzhou, and was a symbol of the sect master's identity.    

    

"Put it away!" Cang Yun's eyes flashed. He looked deeply at Chen Yu and Moo Su and said.    

    

"I didn't expect that the Sect Master would actually bestow the Sovereign's Medallion, so you can see how trustful you are!" Zhuge Liehfeng sighed, he turned and looked at the two men and one woman behind him and said: "The new sect master's direct disciples have come to train in Medicinal Spirit Academy, do not neglect them. Pei Hongling, bring them along to familiarize themselves with the furnace, and explain the basic techniques to concoct pills. "Chen Yu, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!"    

    

"Yes sir!" The woman was in her mid-thirties, her skin was smooth and fair, and her features were bright and beautiful. After respectfully agreeing, she said, "Junior Brother Chen and this Senior Sister, please come with me!"    

    

Chen Yu did not expect that the treatment would be completely different here. In a flash, he understood that Cang Yun did not know that Hsu Yuan had brought the Sect Leader Token.    

    

Immediately, Chen Yu thanked her and followed behind Pei Hongling.    

    

Pei Hongling brought the two of them to the nearest pill furnace and said, "This is to concoct a batch of Fiery Yuan Pills. The most important aspect of pill refining is to control the fire. Junior Brother Chen, please take a look. This pill furnace is divided into two parts. The upper part is the cauldron, which is where the herbs are refined. The lower part is the furnace. If the fire was too strong, then the herbs would be scorched and the medicinal strength would be damaged. Not only was it unable to condense a pill, but there was also the risk of the furnace exploding. But Huo Ruo is too weak; she cannot combine the medicinal effects into one, nor can she form a pill! "    

    

Chen Yu pointed at the formation carved on the ground, which was shining brightly, and asked, "Who is that formation?"    

    

"Spiritual Concentration Array!" Pei Hongling said: "What is burning in the furnace is the Vermillion Core Wood, which is a spirit wood. The flames that are burning are spirit flames, so the temperature is high enough." But even so, the Spirit Convergence Array still needs to be linked together to provide the fire spirit energy. Other than gathering the fire spirit from the fire attribute Spirit Crystal to raise the temperature, the other use of the formation is to prevent the heat from dissipating from the Scarlet Core Tree! "    

    

Chen Yu recalled Bloodfire Emperor's knowledge about refining pills and said, "You don't have to burn the Spiritual Wood to refine pills, do you?"    

    

"Of course!" Pei Hongling said, "High level alchemists can forge pills through the void, and they don't need a cauldron, they only use the Fire Attribute Spiritual Soul s that are fused into their body. They control the fire and combine the medicinal effects with their hearts!"    

    

"Intermediate alchemists can refine pills without using a pill furnace, and with the help of a pill cauldron made from Profound Artifact and above, they can also refine miraculous pills!" Pei Hongling continued, "But to be like me and my fellow apprentices, I have to make use of a complete furnace!"    

    

Amidst her words, Pei Hongling's expression was tinged with mixed emotions.    

    

"Is the Fire Attribute Spiritual Soul important?" Chen Yu asked after thinking for a while.    

    

"Of course!" Pei Hongling said: "A Fire Attribute Spiritual Soul of high rank, suitable for refining pills, naturally gets twice the results with half the effort." Especially those Spiritual Soul that are in the shape of flames! "    

    

Chen Yu's heart jumped, he turned to look at Cang Yun, only to see Cang Yun whispering to Zhuge Liehfeng, Chen Yu retracted his gaze, with a flip of his hand, Flamingo appeared in his palm, "Senior Sister Pei, what do you think of my Spiritual Soul?"    

    

The Flamingo emitted a high temperature, shrinking to the size of a palm and spreading its wings on Chen Yu's palm.    

    

"Junior Brother Chen." Pei Hongling was dumbfounded.    

    

Those warriors who were busy concocting pills also looked over in this direction. Many of them had surprised expressions on their faces.
