Chapter 441: Chapter 439 Learned it, Learned it_1
Lu Xuan followed Guan Wan into an elegant room.
Inside, there were five cultivators scattered about, each possessing a formidable cultivation level, with the weakest amongst them already in the Foundation Establishment Mid-term cultivation base.
“Junior Sister Guan, you’ve arrived.”
“Who’s the stranger behind you? He seems unfamiliar.”
The five individuals focused their gaze towards Lu Xuan, a glint of curiosity in their eyes.
An elderly woman with silver hair asked.
“This here is Junior Brother Lu Xuan. You’ve probably heard of him. He is a Spirit Plant Master with a terrifying talent in the Path of Spiritual Plants.”
“Recently, he cultivated a batch of Primordial Essence Herbs and Five-Element Fruits for the Dan Palace, all of which were successfully cultivated. Many of them were of high quality.”
Guan Wan introduced Lu Xuan’s background to the five insiders.
“Greetings, fellow Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters.”
Lu Xuan respectfully greeted them. As he saw it, these people seemed like ripe leeks, just waiting for him to harvest.
“So it’s Junior Brother Lu. We’ve heard much about you.”
“If in the future you have a chance to help us cultivate spiritual plants, we hope you won’t refuse.”
Someone laughed politely.
“Of course not. As long as my Senior Brothers and Sisters need me, I will do my utmost to cultivate the spiritual plants,” Lu Xuan quickly replied, exactly what he had been waiting to hear.
“As a Spirit Plant Master, why has Junior Brother Lu come to participate in our Dan Palace meeting?”
A bald, eyebrowless, and red-faced man asked.
“Junior Brother Lu has already joined the Dan Palace and has learned several Elixir Recipes. His talent has shown through, so I brought him to learn from those present.”
Guan Wan explained with a smile.
“Oh, I see!”
“Hahaha, Junior Brother, you may be proficient in spiritual plants, but as far as alchemy is concerned, you still have some distance to go.”
The red-faced man laughed heartily and spoke candidly.
“I look forward to learning from all of you.”
Lu Xuan willingly sat in a corner, appearing patient, obedient, and ready to learn without any distractions.
They gave a light chuckle, not paying any mind to the newcomer just starting with alchemy and began their discussion.
“Recently I obtained an insight and managed a breakthrough in flame control. It greatly improved my ability to precisely control the Pill Fire, thereby increasing the success rate of pill condensation just a bit.”
The red-faced man’s skin suddenly turned a deeper shade of red. He opened his mouth and jetted out a clump of red fire, manipulating it into different forms in mid-air.
While controlling the red flame, he shared his insights with the others.
The group was soon immersed in a spirited debate.
Lu Xuan, however, only afforded them half-attention, radiating a dismissive aura from the corner of his eyes.
The fire manipulation technique displayed by the red-faced man was even weaker than his own.
After obtaining the “Fire Manipulation Secret” from the Light Cluster, he had gained an incredibly deep and thorough understanding of the method. He was now able to conjure flames at will.
As for the vague, improved success rate in pill condensation that came with better fire control…
He had the Heavenly Blue Pill Fire, which was suitable for alchemy, hence he did not have to consider these trivial skills.
With abundant resources, abundant skills, and absolute command over the Pill Furnace, he outclassed them in every regard.
Is this what they call a Pill Dao Master?
This thought quietly arose in Lu Xuan’s mind, though his demeanor remained respectful and he nodded in seeming agreement with the bald man’s statements.
After the red-faced cultivator finished speaking, two other Pill Masters shared their alchemy experiences. They covered various aspects of Elixir processing and manufacturing precautions that proved to be quite enlightening for Lu Xuan.
However, when he tried to recall what he had learned, it seemed that not much had stuck.
“I still can only count on my trusty Light Cluster.”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but sigh, gaining a clearer and more comprehensive understanding of his supernatural alchemy talents.
“I recently gained some insights and managed to achieve the Great Achievement Realm in refining the Second Grade Imbued Spirit Pill. Allow me to share my experience with everyone.”
“The Great Achievement Realm? I never imagined that your alchemy level would be horrifyingly high, Senior Sister!”
“Indeed, even for the Second Grade Imbued Spirit Pill, reaching the Great Achievement Realm is nothing short of a monumental task.”
Upon hearing the silver-haired elder’s words, everyone started debating.
All present were alchemy geniuses who could achieve mastery in numerous low-ranked elixirs. However, advancing further required an enormous amount of time and effort, especially for the Great Achievement Realm, which demands immense luck and sudden enlightenment.
Lu Xuan too, became more attentive, fixating his gaze on the silver-haired elder.
“During one of my refining processes, I discovered…”
The silver-haired elder noticed everyone’s attention directed at her and took pride in herself, speaking non-stop about the things she had discovered.
At her words, they pondered over whether they could apply her findings to themselves.
That’s it?
Lu Xuan sighed faintly, his focus dwindling significantly.
From what the silver-haired elder spoke of, using his grandmaster level understanding of the Imbued Spirit Pill, he could find several similarities.
Is it possible that I am the true Pill Dao Master?
A thought full of confidence brewed in Lu Xuan.
The corner-sitting Lu Xuan was still noticed by the silver-haired elder.
She caught sight of Lu Xuan, propped up by his chin and seemingly lost in thought.
“Junior Brother Lu, the insights I have just imparted may be a bit too profound for someone new to alchemy like you.”
“When you reach that level, you’ll naturally comprehend what I said today.”
“For now, it’s better if you solidify your basic alchemy skills. After you advance your alchemy level, you can then consider those advanced techniques.”
“Did you learn anything, Junior Brother Lu?”
Pride glinted on the silver-haired elder’s face.
Being able to uplift the production process of a Second-Class Elixir to the Great Achievement Realm was unheard of, even in the Dan Palace.
“Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister. I’ve learned, truly I have,” Lu Xuan clasped his hands and emphasized.
Despite the silver-haired elder showing off a little, he had no intention of one-upping her.
To him, the silver-haired elder’s performance was totally normal. She had neither harmed his interests nor caused him to lose face, so Lu Xuan did not take it personally.
If he had stood out and pointed out her shortcomings, he might have gained some attention, but he would have offended the Foundation Establishment Late-term silver-haired elder. Moreover, it would have exposed Lu Xuan’s true alchemy level.
If the Dan Palace found out that someone had reached the grandmaster realm in a certain Elixir in such a short time, there would be no way to explain it.
His talent in alchemy far surpassed that of a genius, even a freak would be an understatement.
Lu Xuan was usually cautious and preferred to keep a low profile. He always cultivated spiritual plants alone, collected light clusters, and slowly built up his power.
He had no interest in drawing attention and offending people.
A few casual words of agreement were all he needed to get past the situation. If he somehow scratched the silver-haired elder in just the right way, he might even gain some Rare Spirit Seeds!
