Primordial Emperor

At this moment, Wu Chong finally understood. In his view, Lin Chen found it impossible to refine Lapis Lazuli stones in two days, and since refining them was time-consuming and laborious, Lin Chen didn't want to continue wasting time with them.

Therefore, Lin Chen thought to just superficially deal with it, directly roasting the Lapis Lazuli stones with Divine Fire and throwing them into the pile of already refined stones. This way, he could quickly let every stone undergo a round of fire.

By then, he could consider the task completed.

But this kind of self-deception, Lin Chen might do it, but how could they not notice? It's just that due to Lin Chen's status, Wu Chong didn't dare to say much about it.

It's necessary to know that if Xing Yao uses these unpurified Lapis Lazuli stones in his later artifact refining, there will definitely be big problems, potentially even causing the furnace to explode.

After all, impurities in the Lapis Lazuli stones remain, which will inevitably cause issues during fusion.

Therefore, in Wu Chong's view, the ten or so breaths earlier, Lin Chen wasn't actually purifying and refining the Lapis Lazuli stones.

After all, refining Lapis Lazuli stones and being able to purify two at once is something even his teacher Xing Yao cannot achieve.

So, Wu Chong got up, walked to the stone platform with the purified Lapis Lazuli stones, ready to pick out the two stones Lin Chen had just thrown in.

However, when he picked up the two Lapis Lazuli stones Lin Chen tossed onto the high platform, he was completely stunned.

Because the last two Lapis Lazuli stones thrown in were also purified, and both were at a hundred percent purity.

This made Wu Chong somewhat doubt if he had picked up the wrong ones.

But after he checked every Lapis Lazuli stone on the stone platform, he found they were all at a hundred percent purity.

"How is this possible!"

Wu Chong was somewhat doubting his life.

In just over ten breaths, Lin Chen directly refined and purified two Lapis Lazuli stones, both at a hundred percent purity.

Even his teacher Xing Yao absolutely couldn't achieve this.

So at this moment, Wu Chong stood frozen in place, beginning to doubt his existence.

And this scene happened to be seen by Xing Yao.

Xing Yao also had suspicions in his heart about Lin Chen not further purifying the Lapis Lazuli stones.

Not only did Lin Chen not purify those stones, but he also set up formations in his Artifact Refining Room, which made him rather unhappy.

However, due to Lin Chen's status, Xing Yao dared not say much. After all, even his Master treated Lin Chen with utmost respect, how could he say more?

However, while Xing Yao dared not speak to Lin Chen, he could certainly criticize his registered disciple, Wu Chong.

This Wu Chong, not purifying stones, stood dumbly off to the side in a daze.

And Lin Chen lifted the Lapis Lazuli stones, passing them over a mysterious formation with Divine Fire before throwing them into the pile of refined stones; Wu Chong didn't even pick them out.

"Wu Chong, why are you just standing there in a daze? Hurry up and purify these Lapis Lazuli stones for me. If these stones aren't fully purified in two days, you can forget about becoming a direct disciple."

Xing Yao shouted angrily at the still daydreaming Wu Chong.

However, upon hearing these words, Wu Chong trembled slightly, his face filled with distress.

"Teacher, it's not like that. It's not that I'm not purifying the Lapis Lazuli stones; it's just that I have no place here now. The purity of the stones I purify can't compare to Lin Chen's, and my refining speed is even slower than his. So I think it's better not to interfere and let Lin Chen refine them himself. This way, the purity will be better, and it will be more beneficial for artifact refining."

Wu Chong looked at Xing Yao, trying to defend himself.

Upon hearing Wu Chong's words, Xing Yao was momentarily stunned, baffled by what his disciple had said.

Wu Chong had been with him for some time, could he really not tell whether Lin Chen was purifying the Lapis Lazuli stones?

In Xing Yao's view, purifying stones fully in ten breaths, two at once, was clearly a superficial way to deal with tasks.

But he had seen Wu Chong attempt to pick up those purified stones yet suddenly decided not to for some reason.

Could Lin Chen really have purified them?

Thinking thus, Xing Yao immediately walked over to the pile of Lapis Lazuli stones Lin Chen had purified, reached out for the two stones just tossed by Lin Chen, and was instantly dumbfounded.

One hundred percent purity, devoid of a single impurity.

"How is this possible?"

Xing Yao now had the same thought as Wu Chong earlier, his heart incredibly shocked.

Lin Chen actually only used ten or so breaths to finish purifying two Lapis Lazuli stones, all at a hundred percent purity.

Such a purification method is simply like the work of celestial beings; even his Master, Duan Yuanfeng, wouldn't be able to do it.

At this moment, Xing Yao felt genuine respect and admiration for Lin Chen from the depths of his heart.

Previously his respect was mostly due to Lin Chen's relationship with his Master, but now it was different; he truly respected Lin Chen from the bottom of his heart.

Lin Chen's purification method and speed were unmatched, even by his Master.

Moreover, Lin Chen's Cultivation was merely at the Nirvana Realm Sixth Layer. Remembering his own purification speed at that Cultivation level was simply unbearable.

Now Xing Yao finally understood why his Master held Lin Chen in such high esteem, even treating him as an equal.

Knowing everything, Xing Yao remained in shock for a long time, unable to regain his senses.

"Wu Chong, what are you dazing off about, quickly come over to help, pass those Lapis Lazuli stones to me."

Lin Chen spoke out, scolding Wu Chong, somewhat displeased that this guy suddenly stopped handing over the stones.

"Yes, senior."

Wu Chong immediately responded upon hearing Lin Chen's call, then looked towards his teacher Xing Yao.

"Why are you still standing there, hurry up."

Seeing Wu Chong stop to look at him, Xing Yao immediately urged him with a reprimand.

No kidding, with Lin Chen's purification speed, would he not let Wu Chong go help?

From the current situation, Wu Chong's stoppage in purifying Lapis Lazuli stones was justified, as Lin Chen surpassed him by several streets, even Xing Yao himself wasn't a match for Lin Chen.

Thus, Wu Chong immediately went to carry those Lapis Lazuli stones.

Lin Chen's purification became so fast that Wu Chong couldn't keep up with the speed of moving stones, for Lin Chen could directly purify five stones at once.

Seeing this, Xing Yao immediately decided not to refine the stones himself but chose to assist Lin Chen, joining Wu Chong's task.
