Li Ze's tone was too nonchalant, as if he were talking about what to eat today, rather than a young man in his twenties who had been involved in alchemy for less than ten years discussing the confusion he encountered when refining a level seven pill.
"You can already refine seventh-grade pills?" Xue Qingge frowned slightly, her incomparably beautiful face still showing some doubt.
Li Ze nodded, "I encountered a bottleneck after refining the seventh-grade pill."
Xue Qingge gave Li Ze a deep look and shook her head. It was a pity that he was a demon; otherwise, she would have brought him to their Chidan Sect no matter what.
Next, Xue Qingge and the others discussed the problems that Li Ze had encountered.
To have the most skilled alchemists of the Crimson Pill Sect answer his questions is a privilege unique to Li Ze in the entire cultivation world.
Xue Qingge and the others not only answered Li Ze's questions, but they also shared their insights and experiences in alchemy in front of Li Ze.
The discussion lasted for two days. On the third day, Xue Qingge refined a batch of eighth-grade pills in front of Li Ze. In order to let Li Ze see his refining technique clearly, he deliberately slowed down and explained it while refining.
After the pill was completed, Xue Qingge not only gave the pill to Li Ze, but also gave him the pill furnace.
"This is too expensive," Li Ze waved his hand in refusal.
"When refining high-grade pills, the level of the pill furnace has a great influence on the success rate." Xue Qingge thought that Li Ze had been trapped here for the past few years and probably hadn't had time to buy a high-quality pill furnace.
"Young friend Li Ze, please accept it without worry. The sect leader has no shortage of alchemy furnaces," the others also advised.
Seeing that Xue Qingge was genuinely offering the gift, Li Ze accepted it.
After accepting the alchemy furnace, Li Ze bid farewell to Xue Qingge and the others, and rode away on his snow wolf.
Only after his figure completely disappeared did the people of the Crimson Pill Sect sigh, "A seventh-grade alchemist in his twenties is unprecedented and will never be seen again. It's a pity he's a demon."
"It is a pity. But if he continues to be friendly with human cultivators, it wouldn't be a problem for us to be on good terms with him. He became a seventh-grade alchemist in less than ten years, and his future achievements are probably immeasurable. Let alone ninth-grade, he might even be able to refine the legendary tenth-grade pills."
"A tenth-grade pill? No one in our Crimson Pill Sect has ever been able to refine a tenth-grade pill. Does the Sect Master think so highly of him?"
“Of course. He is the first, only, and last seventh-grade alchemist in the cultivation world who is twenty years old.” Xue Qingge said with certainty.
"He's only in his early twenties and has already reached the Nascent Soul stage. He has a long life ahead of him, so perhaps he really can refine a tenth-grade pill."
"So that's why you all shared everything you knew?"
"Of course. Such a promising junior, as long as he doesn't become an enemy of humanity and we befriend him, once he becomes a tenth-grade alchemist, we can ask him for some guidance. He shouldn't refuse."
"Not only can we offer him guidance, but we can also ask him to refine tenth-grade pills."
"......"
Li Ze was unaware that in Xue Qingge's and the others' minds, he was already a future tenth-grade alchemist. At this moment, he and Xue Lang were in a somewhat delicate situation, as they had encountered a demon clan's group.
"It's you!" Ji Chuan's tone was tinged with surprise. "You've actually reached the Nascent Soul stage!"
Ji Shuo also looked at Li Ze, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, his gaze scrutinizing, "Is this another opportunity?"
“No,” Li Ze shook his head. “It’s because the demonic energy here is so strong. Not just me, many people have advanced.”
Li Ze was telling the truth. Even Ji Shuo and Ji Chuan had both advanced from the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm to the late-stage.
Ji Shuo and Ji Chuan were speechless for a moment.
"What's going on with this demonic beast?" Ji Chuan turned his gaze to the majestic Snow Wolf King. It was astonishing that the proud Snow Wolf King had become a human cultivator's mount.
“Your Majesty, I know what’s going on.” A Nascent Soul stage demon general stepped forward from the demon army.
Li Ze looked at the other party. He vaguely recognized this Nascent Soul stage demon general. Back then, he and Mo Xingjue had snatched the Snow Wolf from several Nascent Soul stage demons. Unfortunately, this Nascent Soul stage demon general was one of them.
Li Ze remained outwardly calm, but his heart was in his throat.
The Nascent Soul stage demon general briefly described how Mo Xingjue and Li Ze forcibly took the snow wolf. After listening, the demons present looked at Li Ze with complicated expressions.
They, the demon race, actually have demons and cultivators mixed together!
"What do you have to say about this?" Ji Chuan looked at Li Ze with a calm expression.
